About: I have taken care of my own current dog, Mack, since I was 12. I've had several other family dogs in the past that I have helped raise and train as well, I've taken care of other people's animals before, and I have always truly loved all animals. ❤️ I love to walk dogs, or cats! I can also bathe, feed, and make sure your pet has the best care. I am currently available to take care of your pet at any point this summer! I have worked part-time at Petsense and I currently work at Tractor Supply, but I will work around my schedule at any point to try and help you with your fur babies! Personally, I treat my dog like he is my baby. I love him so much and love to sit and play with him, give him snuggles, and take him with me on walks because I simply love being in the presence of animals. They make me happy, and so I do what I can to make sure your animals are happy and taken care of too.
“Amanda was very sweet when she came for a meet and greet with our dogs. She is knowledgeable about handling dogs and medicines. She did a great job sitting for us. My dogs were very happy with her. And we are very happy to find her!”
About: Hello my name is Rick. I am an experienced dog walker, sitter, caretaker in Bardstown, KY. My goal is to contribute my experience as a dog owner/lover and share that with your pet. I am available day or night. You can trust me with your pet. Please read my reviews. Description of Skills: I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds to include walking, exercising, feeding and cleaning. I have owned dogs for the past 45 years and have experience caring for dogs from toy poodle size to large Am. Bullies. I can also help train your dog if needed in areas such as walking by your side instead of pulling. Thank you, I work for the county school system so I am home most nights and weekends. I am also available during lunch for walks and drop in visits. My residence has tons of sidewalks and grass to walk your dog. Your dog will have complete access to the house unless you or they prefer a crate.

About: I've had pets all of my life, having pets is a blessing. I have 4 cats, Astra, Echo, Nyx, and Stormi. They're my babies!

I also want to start an etsy shop selling homemade items and 5% of my earnings will go to animal charities. A couple of my hobbies are crocheting, learning different languages such as Japanese and sign language, guitar, sewing and video games. I volunteer at an animal rescue in Bardstown called Barktown. I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies! I currently am unemployed and not a student, so caring for your furbabies fits perfectly into my schedule. I do occasionally DoorDash for some extra cash. Your furbabies will have someone to give them love and attention. Depending on the weather depends on how much they'll be outside, and play time is a given. I also know how to give your pets mental simulation, lick mats are amazing for both cats and dogs, unraveling toys with treats is also a great option for simulation if you don't have a lick mat.

I have great experience with puppy training, and senior care as I cared for Sadie when she went through her cancer journey.

I enjoy caring for animals as if I would care for my own child. Considering I work from home, drop shipping. I have the time to put into caring for your fur baby.

“Hailey did a great job watching our crazy little guy. He loved playing with all the toys inside and dragging them out and leaving them everywhere. He especially loved running around in the back yard with her dog. At the end of the day both dogs were running around like best buds in the back yard being crazy. She definitely was able to get both of their zoomies out and he seemed to have such a fun time there.”
Talia D.
“As an anxious mom of two cat babies, I am always hesitant to leave my cats with anyone for a long period of time. My older cat needs special care given her dietary issues and fickleness with the litter box, but she was in capable hands with Talia! She is a very sweet caretaker and sent me many pictures of my babies while I was away, I never worried once! She went out of her way to play and hang out with the kitties, and she was quick to respond when I reached out for updates. Very happy!”
