“Michelle has been very great with my labs and has provided me great comfort in knowing they are in good hands when I can’t be there. Thank you!”


“Brittney took great care of my high energy Belgian malinois! She was very accepting and already knowledgeable on any instructions I had for her. I trust her completely with my dog and my home!”


“Risa watched over our dog's while we were on vacation. We had a lovely meet and greet beforehand and she sent pictures and report cards each day we were gone.”


“I love the detailed daily notes Kelsey made. She showed up on time, followed all my requests and then went above & beyond to care for Tucker. I definitely plan on requesting her for future bookings. Thanks, Kelsey!”


“Being new to Kentucky - we didn't have our foundation of friends who could cat-sit for us whenever we needed. It was very daunting to try and find a completely new sitter who was kind and trustworthy. We nervously got on Rover and saw so many great profiles, but something about Madeline stuck with us. Since then - Madeline has watched our picky, stinky, and needy cat, Extra Gravy, twice now and we're pretty sure he likes Madeline more than us now! We feel so at ease knowing that Extra Gravy is in good hands and being taken care by the best possible! Whenever we take a trip or have something come up - we'll always book with Madeline! Rest assured, your furry family are safe, cared for, and getting love and attention when with this kind and calm sitter! 10/10!”


“Megan took care of our two cats and our fish while we were away for two weeks. She stayed in communication with us about anything that was happening at the house and even went out of her way to take care of a malfunctioning alarm at the house. I loved having her here to watch over things and will definitely choose her and her family again in the future!”


“Emma is amazing! We have hired her to love on our cat, while we have been on vacation, multiple times. I don’t worry at all while we are away, as I know that she is giving our furbaby just as much love as we do (or even more). She is truth worthy, caring, and reliable. We will continue to trust her with caring for our pet whenever we travel.”

About: My animal experience goes way back to childhood. At the age of 7 I started in 4h, learning about animal husbandry. By the age of 13 I was volunteering at the local riding stables. By high school, I was working at the local animal shelter, volunteering with local rescues and advancing my education in dog training, with hopes of getting into service dogs. At age 19 I started working at a vet clinic This just advanced my love of animals and their care even more! Fast forward to today, and I own my own in home grooming salon ❤️ I have continued to volunteer with the local rescues and shelter every chance I get. 2 years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to become a puppy raiser for a veteran service dog foundation. That was the very best experience i could of asked for! My knowledge of dogs extends into training, grooming and care. I'm knowledgeable with cats and other small animals as well! Coming from a farm and vet background, I have experience with just about every animal including exotics. My personal dogs are all very well socialized with other animals of all kinds. They all have extensive training and are completely safe with others. They know just how to make our new guest feel right at home! All my boarder dogs are treated as family, allowed on beds and furniture and cage free unless otherwise requested. Bath or grooming add ons are always available! All baths/ grooms come complete with a cute Pic! Please feel free to reach out with any questions ❤️ I work from home in my at home grooming salon, so your pet will never be alone. Should I need to leave the house for small errands, there is still someone left at home, or the animal will have a safe enclosed room to themselves. My Backyard is attached to the house and fully enclosed with a large wooden privacy fence. Pets are never left outside unattended and are kept in my view at all times.

“We had a wonderful experience with Isaac! He watched our three dogs—Cadance, Roman, and Roxi—and took excellent care of all of them. Cadance can be quite the handful (she’s our spoiled little diva), but Isaac was incredibly patient, kind, and professional the entire time. He dropped in twice a day to let them out and made sure they were fed breakfast and dinner. We also really appreciated the daily pictures he sent—it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear he truly loves animals and knows how to handle different personalities. We felt completely at ease knowing our pups were in such great hands. Highly recommend Isaac to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!”


“Very patient with my high energy pup. Appreciate that she was willing to jump right in and play along.”



About: I have been a proud owner of dogs for over ten years. I have taken care of friends and family dogs throughout those years as well. I currently have two small Yorkies and one yorkie mix that only know love in my household! I will treat your pet just like a member of my family and will ensure they know nothing but love in my house! You can trust that I will cherish your pet and ensure I make you feel comfortable and up-to-date while they are in my care. I love to take dogs on long walks, dog parks and I have a big backyard for them to run around in as well. I like to spend quality time and play with your pet while they are in my care. I have open weekends to aid others with watching their pets. I have flexibility to assist with walking or caring for all of your dogs needs. With my three dogs, we are currently working on obedience training to further enhance their skills. I ensure that they have a healthy and safe environment to coexist as well as learn ways to respect each other spaces as well as the home they live in. I love on them individually to have that one on one time and play with all of them together as well. I would do the same for any dog under my care.

About: I have owned all types of animals especially as my children were home iguanas, snakes, horses, Guinea pig, rabbits, fish, birds, ferrets, cats and of course dogs so I am very familiar with how to take care of them from giving medications to brushing their teeth. I have experience with newborn pups, colts and kittens. I am currently studying on how to train dogs. I understand that all animals learn/react differently So I believe in studying on how to work with each type of animal and breed before taking care of them. I have two dogs that has passed the Canine Good Citizens course. Each animal, no matter if it’s a snake or dog is a wonderful living creature and should be taken care of that way. I am currently unemployed so I will be home with the fur babies daily. I will be able to exercise them daily as well. Thank you I have a fenced in area that the fur baby can run around in and also have other fur babies in my house that can keep them company. I also have 12 acres of land that I do take the babies walking.

About: Hi! By the way, I won't be offended if you no longer need my help. Please do not leave me hanging, let me know you don't need my help as soon as you know. Thank you. :) I work at a dog training camp, so I have experience handling dogs! I usually work the weekdays 6am-12pm!! The pets that I have are 2 dogs (sheltie & german shepherd), 3 cats, 5 geckos (3 leopard geckos, 1 crested gecko, & 1 gargoyle gecko), and a holland lop bunny!! I have previously had ferrets, betta fish, praying mantis, jumping spiders, & many hamsters. Animals have always been a passion of mine, but unfortunately I would not be able to be a vet. Knowing that, I wanted to be able to help people with their pets in a different way by providing them helpful care when they are away from home :D I currently work at a dog training camp from 6 am - 12 pm on weekdays! My schedule is very very flexible after 1 pm!!! I care for anyone else’s pet like they are my own. I have a lot of experience caring for other peoples pets (going from dogs to any reptile/amphibian).

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 6 years old . I have always had a dog ( or more ) around me . I am a stay at home mom and my husband works from home so my schedule is pretty open most days that other may not be. I have years of experience with dogs . I know how to keep your pup safe but also have a good time . Taking care of your fur baby is my passion.

About: Hi, I’m Darian, and I’m not just a pet sitter, I’m your pet’s second favorite human! What sets me apart is the level of attention, communication, and genuine care I provide. I take the time to get to know your pet’s unique personality, routines, and needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’d love to get to know your pet and develop a bond so you and your baby feel comfortable being around me or possibly being in our animal loving home! I’m currently blessed with the opportunity to not have to work due to my boyfriend’s employment. This isn’t just money for me, I genuinely love to spend time with all animals and would love this opportunity to learn more. I have a big fenced in back yard and my baby Obi loves to makes friends! We give lots of cuddles, have lots of toys and like to give treats of fresh blueberries or whatever would be approved through you! We love to be outside on a pretty day for walks or play dates in the back yard.

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life and always had a dog, I love animals and taking care of them, reach out to me for all services! I currently work full time but am available Monday-Friday after 5:30pm and anytime on weekends! Just please message me the time that works for you ! I will not be bounding at my place, there is no room but am more then happy to come to your house and let the dog out and feed or play with them.

About: I have a 120 pound rottie and a 60 pound hyperactive Pitt mix that have absolutely stolen my heart but I’m looking to fill some time with other pets as well. I’m a RN but I’m in graduate school to become a CRNA (the person that puts you to sleep when you have surgery) and that requires intense clinical training, therefore I am no longer working as a nurse. Im looking to make some extra money doing what I between classes/clinical! I love dogs, especially if they are big and cuddly, but little dogs need love too! Puppies will always have a special place in my heart too. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies and love on them! In the month of May my schedule is wide open as I am off from school and home 100% of the time! I don’t have many restrictions! Due to already having 2 rambunctious dogs in my own home, I will not be allowing dog sitting at my personal home. However, in a clients home, I can cater to whatever care/routine the animal already has!

“Tanna was on time to feed the cats and she did an excellent job with communicating with me. I appreciate her and the effort she put in making sure my brother’s cats were taking care of.”


“Tayler is so sweet. She brought my boy a pup-cup. (She asked first). It was so hot outside. She brought Walter home from his walk early but made up the time by playing with him inside. Now that is so considerate”
