About: Growing up, we always owned tiny dogs. Although, I always wanted a bigger playful dog; one you could actively spend time with and give your full attention to. After moving to Kentucky from Texas, we adopted Bonnet, our (now) 3-year-old Border Collie/Aussie mix. She is incredibly sweet and playful. Bonnet is great for shy dogs who want to ease into social settings, and also dogs who just want another play date! As a stay-at-home doggy mama, I have plenty of time and attention to give. I am always around, and available to oversee animals who want to roam freely opposed to being caged for hours at a time. Our Border Collie/Australian Shepard mix, Bonnet, is gentle and playful. She is always great with other dogs, so we tend to let them roam together as much as we can (supervised of course). We have a gated play-room for the dogs to have space to play with toys without the risk of getting into anything dangerous! We can also easily crate or seperate animals if needed.

About: Never had my childhood home had less than 5 animals. I've grown up taking care of dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, rats, mice, gerbils, bunnies, and turtles-most of those under solely my care. I've always loved caring for my animals and watching them grow. I'm currently working a very flexible schedule Monday-Friday so I will be available almost any time! With weekends, just ask! I can usually squeeze in a visit/walk no problem. We have a 3200 sq ft 2 level home with a large unfenced yard. I have one friendly 8 year old female labradoodle, one very sweet, friendly, and energetic 1 year old newfoundland mix, and another very nonchalant 5 year old male cat. I also have a 9 year old son and a 3 year old son who both love and respect animals. Our home is a very comfortable space for any kid friendly animal to enjoy. We feed 2x a day, let them out to potty at least 4x a day-I will leash if necessary.

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life. All my fur babies have been trained by me. if you have a puppy that is still in training I have no problem with that. we have all been there. I worked for a year at a local animal rescue. Where I was able to strengthen my knowledge on behavioral training and pet health. I am a college student and am free lot of the time but class are during the day. So breaks away from your fur babies might be longer during the semester. My top priority is to make sure your animals are safe and secondly happy. This means checking on not only your fur babies but also your house to make sure there are no new problems arise. Checking off the to-do list is numbee one but giving your pet time to play and enrichment is also an important priority of mine.

Angela is a lifesaver! I have been working extra at the hospital every weekend due to Covid and her coming to walk my dog every morning that I work has been priceless. Her positive, upbeat and energetic attitude is just what my 8 month old Labrador needs after being in the house all night. And with my hurt back, just what I need after a 12 hour shift on my feet. I haven't used Angela for other services yet other than dog walking, but when I need them, she'll be the first one I ask. She is punctual, responsible, considerate, full of energy and always puts a smile on my Sochi's face!

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets, horses, and even some exotic animals. I’ve worked and alongside veterinarian's in both small animal hospitals and equine practices — so your pets are always in safe, knowledgeable hands. Whether it’s a puppy, cat, or horse, I treat every animal as if they were my own with patience, gentleness, and attention to their needs. I’m comfortable with special care routines, medication schedules, and animals of all sizes and temperaments. Because I love working with animals and caring for them it is a stress reliever and gives me satisfaction with spending time with animals of all kinds. When I care for pets in your home, my goal is to make them feel completely comfortable and loved while keeping their normal routines consistent. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, habits, and preferences — whether that means quiet snuggles, long walks, or plenty of playtime!

About: I’m a dog trainer with 5+ years of experience and I own my own training business, Canine Communication, LLC. I’ve worked with almost every breed of dog and specialize in obedience, manners, and puppy development; I have also trained therapy dogs and protection dogs. I am well versed in animal behavior and pride myself on helping my training clients better communicate with their canine companions. Before starting my training career, I dog sat while I attended Bellarmine University. I have dog sat for several families in their homes and have also boarded dogs in my home through my training career. As a dog trainer who owns her own business, I have a great deal of flexibility which allows me to not only serve my training clients, but to best serve my walking and sitting clients as well. My schedule allows me to ensure all dogs under my care receive dedicated time and attention. I live on a few acres and have multiple long lines (long leashes that are 15-20 feet) that I use to potty break and walk client dogs around the property. They get to romp and sniff and enjoy a sense of freedom while still safely on leash. I have multiple crates of varying sizes inside that I use when I am not home. Pet safety and health is paramount for me.

About: Dogs are my passion. I have been loving and caring for dogs before I ever had my own. I grew up taking care of neighbors dogs. I would take them for walks, bathe them and just hang out with them because I didn’t have one of my own. I finally got a husky when I was 10 and currently own 4 dogs. I am very familiar with many breeds of dogs as well as different temperaments. I also train dogs, from puppies to adults, and small to large. I have yet to meet a dog I haven't fallen in love with. If you are looking for someone who will love your dogs as much as you do, I am your girl. I used to board, but recently had a baby so I had to step away from boarding. However, I am still available to do drop in visits and dog walks! My daily schedule is very flexible so I will be easy to work with. Your dog will never be let out without a leash if not in a fenced yard and all rules you establish will be met. Your dog will be treated like one of my own. My babies are family.

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up. I have always had a great bond with each one of them. As of right now I have a big golden doodle, and a little Aussie doodle, I love them both so much. My friends make fun of me because I baby them so much, I take them on car rides with me all the time and buy them ice cream cones every now and then. I promise to treat your dogs exactly how I treat mine! I’m currently unemployed, I’m about to go off to college in about a month so I’m just trying to find something to do in the meantime to keep me busy. I do play sports though so that does keep me busy but I can kind of move around when I want to practice or train so I should be pretty available. Well I take both of my dogs for walks often. I have a aussie doodle who is little, and a golden doodle who is huge, so no matter how big or small your dog is I can handle them.

About: I'm 33 years old. I grew up on a farm and have been around animals my whole life! I unfortunately lost my fur baby in January of 2022 and due to landlord issues I can’t have another of my own again yet! I work full time as a nanny out of my home during the week, I'm very responsible and caring. I try to have flexible scheduling and would love to be able to care for your fur baby. I've been house sitting for about 8 years now. I'm a hard worker just looking for a chance to make a little extra money on the side doing what I love. Children and animals are my passion. I'm experienced with fish, turtles, dogs, cats, horses, cows and other farm animals. If you take a chance on me I promise you won't be disappointed!! I can do overnights and mid day potty breaks, as I work full time with a 8-5/6 schedule. They would unfortunately have to be on their own for most of the day though. I can’t have the animals in my personal home but I would do whatever you are comfortable with to keep them safe inside your home. I have experience with crating if necessary. Also have experience with cameras inside the home to keep an eye on your animals

Lee does phenomenal work! They were so patient and encouraging with my sweet, but anxious, girl Raena. In just a week they were able to get her out of her shell. Raena warmed up to them so fast. I couldn’t be more grateful for their experience and clear love for animals. 🧡
