“Tracy is an excellent dog and house sitter. She came to our house twice to visit Kiwi, our dog, and us to better understand our needs, familiarize herself with our home and Kiwi’s favorite spots, & make us feel comfortable. We enjoyed the Kiwi photos she sent each day and she is easy to reach with any question. Tracy is very responsible, considerate, & great with dogs! We would highly recommend her for house and dog sitting!!!”


“We had Hannah house-sit our 7 year old cattle dog mix for a couple nights while we were out of town, and Hannah was great! Hannah sent photos and videos throughout the weekend of walks and playtime. Our dog loooooved her when they first met. Hannah was completely comfortable with our dog's leash aggression and asked about her triggers to make sure she was prepared. Hannah knew exactly how to walk dogs that struggle with leash aggression, and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her hands. Hoping to rebook with Hannah again soon!”

“Dave was absolutely great and totally crucial to my happiness during my 2 week vacation. Not only is he punctual, reliable, and communicative, he is an animal lover. He loves the animals and they love him too. I got home to happy and healthy animals which is one of the best gifts I could have received. He consistently sent me photo updates of all my animals. He developed personal relationships with each of my 3 animals and knew their personality traits within a couple days. I will definitely be using him again. I very much recommend using Dave!”


About: Looking for an excited pet sitter with experience living with and caring for fur babies? Look no further! I have lived with and taken care of dogs for much of my life, and I have plenty of experience dog sitting for friends and family. I am able to stay overnight and accommodate any requests you may have for your fur baby - keeping them happy and healthy is the priority! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets during the day! I am available to be present constantly on weekends and after 4:30pm on weekdays, as well. Whatever your schedule, I would be happy to accommodate! I live in an apartment, so I am only able to care for pets in my home for short periods of time (an afternoon or so!). If there are needs in-home while I am pet sitting (any cleaning or house care), I would be happy to take care of that as well!

About: I grew up with pets but once I moved to college in 2016 I started pet sitting often as a side gig and now I pet sit and house sit almost every other weekend for my friends who go out of town. —I’ve sat up to 3 dogs before -from pop ins to 10 day long house/pet sittings -from rescued dogs to puppies -pet sat cats too I work for a ministry on UK’s campus so I have flexible hours. I do not have any set days or times but am willing to pick up help when needed with enough notice! I do whatever is most comfortable for the owners! I crate when needed or snuggle them when they need it! I’m ready to take them on walks or let them run around outside!

“Hallie was AMAZING!! She took care of my baby like it was her own. I got lots of updates and she even took my dog out for a nice long walk, with permission. She did great with my dog who is known to be a bit anxious. I will definitely be using Hallie again for future dog sitting!! I couldn't recommend her enough!”


“Megan was wonderful and took such good care of our pets and home! We appreciated the regular update and photos and would recommend 100% recommend Megan for pet care and house sitting needs!”


About: I have interned at a vet clinic my senior year of high school, worked at an animal shelter, and have owned dogs since I was 8. I’m currently home for the summer from college and without work as of right now so I am free all day to check up or play with your babies! I would feed, water, and provide walks and also some play time for dogs, then with cats I would feed, water, and I would also play with whatever toys they have.

Jade E.
“Jade is an incredible dog sitter. She has stayed at our home with our dog multiple times over the last few years. She constantly updates us with cute pictures. We've never had any issues. We always come back to a clean home and our dog (who is very high energy and prone to anxiety) is always so relaxed and sweet when we return. She's done everything to coming in and letting him out during the day, to staying at our house for a week. Couldn't recommend Jade enough!”
