“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be happier with Daniel. He went above and beyond all of my expectations. He responded quickly to all of my messages and helped put my mind at ease. My cats absolutely adored him. I will absolutely be rebooking with Daniel if I ever have to leave town. I highly recommend him for all of your fur-babies needs.”


“Great sitter! Took care of our cats really well! Would definitely book again!”

About: I've taken care of my neighbors' pets ever since I was 10 years old. I am trusted to feed, enrich, and walk pets without issues. I am available 7 days a week! Please rest assured that your furry friends and felines are well cared for while you're out and about! I walk, feed, play with, and otherwise engage your pet in activities that allow them to be healthy and happy. I can also stop by briefly if your pet just needs to be fed or watered.

“Jessica has been wonderful! She has had many drop in visits with my puppy and is always on time/communicative. She does a great job with my puppy and is always professional. Highly reccomend.”


“Paige was prompt and thorough. She went the extra mile to make sure my pups were comfortable and cared for. She even stayed extra time during the first drop in to help my shy pup get to know her. She was very professional and polite.”

About: I love having animals in the house, and so do my goldendoodles, Pippi and Lola. They are both 8 years old but still have the energy of a puppy. I have had dogs my entire life (a Bischon, Maltese, Havanese and Goldendoodle most recently), so I am definitely comfortable and experienced with taking care of dogs. I currently work from home, so I am able to have a lot of time to spend with the dogs and do fun activities. Pippi, Lola and I love making new fur-friends, so please feel free to message me with any questions and I will be happy to answer as best I can! I currently work from home full time. My schedule is typically very flexible, but my schedule is 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. during the week. I have a fenced in yard with a deck. I have two goldendoodles, and both are female. They are 8 years old. I typically walk them once a day.

“She was very flexible and even came to my house an extra time to check in on my cat when I was freaking out! I’ve used her multiple times now”


About: I’ve loved dogs (and cats) since I can remember! I’ve taken care of dogs for about 3 years now, whether that be family, friends, and/or neighbors pets. I am a full time student at the University of Louisville but will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available during the week and some weekends. I keep my eyes on your fur baby at all times to ensure they’re not getting into any trouble and are safe. Will follow all instructions regarding your fur baby.

About: I have been an animal sitter for several years and have loved every minute of it! I treat your fur babies how I would want my fur babies to be treated and loved. I currently work full time during the day. Over my animal sitting years, I make sure to take care of your animals in the morning before work, on my lunch break if needed and all evening after I get off of work. When I am with your fur babies, they get my full attention. I have stayed at clients homes with their animals several times over the last 8 years. I find it makes it easier for your fur babies to be in their own element while you are away.

“I was VERY impressed with her. She did an amazing job taking care of our babies. I would DEFINITELY use her services again!”


About: Army vet who loves to help people. I also love to help animals. I live in a large house with my medium sized dog. We have a back yard and lots of space to take them on walks! I grew up raising exotic parrots with my mom. I have great attention to detail and love dogs very much! The area that I live in is near Saint Roch park so their is plenty of space to play. I’ve been around all kinds of dogs. I have not met a dog I didn’t like. I work pretty late shifts so I’m almost always available in the day time. My work hours are usually 9pm to 5am. I get home at around 6am after my shift. If you work a day job and need help taking care of your dog I’m your guy! I wake up around 6am and walk and feed my dog we go to the big park down the street from my house. I walk him again and lunch and once again after dinner. I treat my client's home like my own. I also love every animal like my own as well. i make sure they are well cared for and that the home stays neat and clean. Safety first Safety always.

“Very sweet and helpful with Colby! Thank you so much!”

“Absolutely, Jose. Here’s a heartfelt and professional testimonial that reflects your genuine care: Testimonial for Dog Care Services by Jose Baggett “I can’t recommend Jose highly enough. He didn’t just watch over my dog—he treated her like his own. From daily walks to playtime, attention to detail in feeding, and even those little behavioral cues only a true animal lover would notice, Jose went above and beyond. I returned to a happy, healthy pup who clearly felt loved and safe. It's rare to find someone so responsible, intuitive, and genuinely connected to animals. Jose isn’t just a pet-sitter—he’s a trusted companion for your furry family member.” Christina Medina”
