About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 14. I would walk the neighborhood animals and care for them when my neighbors were out of town. Since I have moved on my own I do in house daycare and care for my friends animals when they are out of town. I also walk their dogs if they have long days of work so they don’t have to worry and the animals needs are met I work from home so I am there all day and able to let them out as many times as they need as well as take them on walks. I have a fenced in back yard and a very friendly dog that can keep yours company. I also can crate the pets if that if your preference and help with crate training so they don’t come out of routine
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 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.

“I hired Megan to take care of my kitty, who has intestinal issues and requires some extra care. She came on time each day and did a great job cleaning the litter boxes (that are extra dirty because of the issues) and making sure all of my kitty's needs were taking care of correctly. My kitty loved her and was calm and at ease. I would definitely hire her again and highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

So a little about me, my name is Maggie, I'm 21 years old and I love animals. One day I hope to start a few businesses including a Catfé (cat cafe), a pet store and an animal sanctuary. 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.
