“We have a farm and Terry did a great job looking over all of our animals (chickens, pigs, cats, dogs, horses). He went above what we asked and even vacuumed and cleaned the litterboxes for our return. He successfully gave meds to our temperamental chihuahua as well and kept us thoroughly updated on how she was doing.”

About: I have experience with puppy training basics, including house training reinforcement, crate training, leash manners, and maintaining consistent routines. I’m patient, calm, and positive, which helps young dogs learn while feeling safe and confident. For senior pets, I provide attentive, compassionate care, including administering medications, assisting with mobility, sticking to specialized diets, and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. I understand that older pets need extra patience and gentle handling, and I make their comfort a top priority. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own—providing reliable, loving, and trustworthy care while keeping owners updated and worry-free. I am currently staying at home due to a lapse in full time work! Taking care of my pets is naturally in my daily routine as well as working on commission based art work. When it comes to taking care of pets in home, I am able to safely separate them from my other pets if need be. All of my pets are vaccinated! I do not have a fenced in yard, however I do have a gated porch! If your pups need walked they will be safely walked on a leash or they can be placed in my outside kennel if requested by you! :) pets are allowed on furniture!
About: At 20 years old, I've got a huge passion for animals and a knack for making them feel right at home. Whether it's playful pups, curious cats, or elderly pets, I create a fun and loving environment where your furry friends can thrive. With me, they'll get all the attention and care they deserve, ensuring they have an amazing stay! 🐾 I’m currently working from home/ part time in Louisville Kentucky, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your fur babies during their stay! I have two friendly dogs, and two friendly cats to keep your fur babies company! I have a front yard, it’s not enclosed, so anytime we’re outside it would be on a harness/leash!
“Brooklyn did an AWESOME job with all 3 of my dogs. She was very good at communicating and updating me with pictures. My pups LOVES her! I will definitely use her again!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“Ashlynn was very professional and did such a great job with Blue! Her attention to detail and care instructions put our mind at ease. Blue loved her and it was very evident that he had been well cared for. I highly recommend her! We will definitely book her services again in the future.”


“We are beyond thankful for Emily, taking care of our cat and dog for an extended holiday weekend! She was great with communication, updates, and was flexible with some additional sudden needs when our dog was sick right before Emily was scheduled to take care of her. She was great with administering all medications. We will definitely being using her again soon!!”

About: My journey as a dedicated dog caregiver began early in my life, and it took a heart-touching turn when I found myself nurturing eleven newborn puppies, following a tragic event that took their mother. I remember vividly the mix of apprehension and determination as I sat on my bedroom floor, syringe-feeding each tiny pup. That first five-hour marathon of feedings marked the start of an unforgettable bond that grew stronger with every round of care. Each puppy, now happily in their forever homes, holds a special place in my heart. This experience not only honed my pet care skills but also deepened my understanding of the unique needs of young animals. With patience, love, and a commitment to continuous improvement, I offer a caring environment where your pet can thrive, feeling as cherished and attended to as those eleven puppies did. My job is seasonal, the busiest is in the summer. During the peak months of July/August my schedule varies, therefore I will regularly keep my calendar updated to reflect my availability. In the fall and winter seasons I am usually available anytime. I will care for your pet as requested per client's preferences. No one knows your pet like you do and I will stick strictly to that care and schedule.
About: I have taken care of dogs for the last 5 years. My friends and family have all relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their pets! I’m a runner so i love going on runs with dogs or even just playing with them in the yard. I’m currently not employed anywhere, I am a college student but will still be available throughout the week and on weekends while I am on break. I have a really big yard for the puppies to play in! I also have 3 other dogs that are so sweet and trained properly! I have a girl german shepard, a girl chihuahua, and a boy australian shepard!
