About: I’ve been a dog owner most of my life and truly understand how much pets are part of the family. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—both my own and those of friends and family. I’ve provided overnight care as well as extended daytime stays, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to feel safe and happy. I know how important it is to have someone you trust watching your pet, so I treat every dog like my own—with patience, consistency, and lots of love. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to follow any specific instructions to keep your dog comfortable and on their normal routine. When caring for dogs, I focus on consistency and comfort. Before the stay, I like to learn your dog’s daily schedule—feeding times, walk routines, favorite activities, and any special needs. During their stay, I stick as closely as possible to that routine so they feel secure and less stressed. I also take time to get to know each dog’s personality and energy level, whether they love to play or prefer a quieter environment. You can expect regular communication and updates so you feel confident your dog is in good hands. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for your pet. My home provides a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel comfortable and secure. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, and I always supervise dogs while they’re outside. I’m careful about doors, gates, and interactions to ensure your pet stays safe at all times. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have to maintain your dog’s routine and comfort. You can count on updates so you feel confident while you’re away.
“Lori is wonderful with dogs. She treated our Gracie like a princess. She takes them to a huge farm where they can run and play in a safe environment. Lori is a sweetheart. I highly recommend her.”
“Elizabeth and Phillip took great care of Hannah, and kept us informed and up to date with messages and pictures. Would certainly engage their services again!”
“Ryo took care of our sweet Maddy and worked with us on such short notice. We appreciated the communication and pictures and can tell she was well cared for. We will definitely be contacting him again for doggie sitting in the future. Thanks Ryo!!”
“Beth took amazing care of Monty! He got plenty of exercise and attention and I got plenty of updates while I was away. It was clear when he got home that he was far happier than when I've had to kennel him on trips. I would definitely call Beth again when I go out of town.”
“Ebony looked after Sir Loin after a last minute booking for his first time staying at a dog sitter. She was very professional throughout the entire process and provided updates during Sir Loins stay and made sure to address any concerns I had about his first time away from home. Sir loin came home very happy and relaxed and obviously had a good time! I definitely recommend Ebony if you want to have your dog staying at a happy caring family home and the peace of mind that your dog is in good hands!”
“Our pups always have a great time with Allison and Kenneth! They are so flexible and easy to work with and send the best picture updated so we know our babies are happy!”
“Ziggy seemed to have a great time with Jeremy & Laura! It was only a short stay, but Ziggy seemed happy in the pictures I received from them. I’ll look to use them again in the future to dogsit!”
“Caroline and her husband took great care of our Rose. She sent photos and videos to let us know how Rose was doing while we were on vacation, which helped us being away from her.”
“Eliane was amazing!!! She made us feel so comfortable and provided regular updates with great photos. She took our dog on long walks and spent quality time with her throughout our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our dog!”
“Kaitlyn is fantastic! She sent us pics and kept us apprised of our dog”s daily activities. She took Oliver on walks which he loves. Our pup came home smelling and looking well groomed and taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“We had to find someone last minute to watch our dog Leo , I came across this website and started to read reviews , and if they would take a large dog like Leo. Most sitters didn’t take dogs that wasn’t neutered, or they wouldn’t take him because of his breed. Then I came across Grace’s profile and read all the amazing reviews and read about her history with animals etc , so we knew she was the one. Leo has never been with anyone else besides my fiancé , son & I but as soon as we dropped him off he was already loving it and grace. She kept us updated the entire time with pictures and letting us know how Leo was doing. He loves her big backyard and I just know he loved it at Grace’s house. She was very sweet and you can just tell how much she loves and cares about all animals. 10/10 would recommend Grace and we need a dog sitter again we know who to call ☺️”

“I had an amazing experience with Jen, and so did my dog Pearl. Pearl is an anxious pup but Jen went above and beyond to keep her calm and happy. I got a ton of photo updates and just felt so relieved and happy knowing that my dog was having a great time while I was away!”
“Shelby has a love for dogs where you need not worry about your fur-baby in her care. She opened her home and her heart to our little dog.

As an added bonus, she had washed his bowls and laundered his blanket and packed ready for pickup. We sincerely recommend Shelby’s home for your dog’s vacation while you are away!”

“Debbie was absolutely fantastic! She tended to our 3 cats on time every day. Our cats are very shy and hide when strangers come over. By day 2 she had sent pictures of the cats that had decided to come out of hiding to see her. ❤️That alone was unbelievable! Not only did she take great care of our cats, she was kind enough to bring packages in as well. So unexpected and so nice of her. Debbie will be my forever go to and I would highly recommend to her my friends and family.”

About: I’ve watched over pets for family and friends for years. My spouse is the child of a veterinarian and grew up with multiple animals in the home. Our children have such a love for animals that we want to offer them the opportunity to get to know, love and care for pets in our community. This opportunity may also teach them the responsibilities they can expect when we adopt. I currently work part-time, 2 evenings a week. Between the 4 of us, we will have plenty of time to devote to hanging with your fur baby. We are available to board most days with advance notice. We have a fenced in yard and will mimic their normal routine as much as possible. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and loved.

“We are from out of town, in Indiana for a short time. We received a last minute invite to go to Churchill downs - Elizabeth accepted our request to puppy sit... and our pupp had the best day! We received pictures and videos of her playing and living her best life. We felt totally at ease and relaxed knowing our little Willi was in great hands.”
“Absolutely some of the best caretaking Charlie has had! Lori was great with Charlie. We met beforehand with her sweet pup to make sure the dogs would get along, and I really appreciated her thoroughness and quick communication. During his stay, Charlie got to run around and play with other dogs at her home and her family’s farm, but also had time to rest and relax. He was such a happy boy when we picked him up and slept the whole way home! 10/10 would recommend Lori!!”

About: Hi my name is Blake! I am a respiratory therapist who currently works at a hospital in Louisville Kentucky. I went to college at Bellarmine university and graduated in 2019. Im an active person with some free time on my hands and love caring for animals. I would love to spend some time with your furry friend by going on walks , playing with toys , or just relaxing outside. I’ve owned many different breeds of dogs in the past and don’t have a particular favorite. I’m open to walking, boarding, or house sitting . Excited to meet your dog and have a fun time with whatever your dog prefers to do . Thanks !🐕😀 Me and my partner both work part time with one of us always being home to be with the dogs.

“Shelby was FANTASTIC with our Sherman. He was very nervous when we left him (he has separation anxiety). Not only did he seem to do well after we left (the pictures she sent us spoke volumes about his mood), but when i picked him up he was excited to see us as always but instead of running straight to the car and waiting at the door for us as he usually does when we pick him up from someone he did a couple of excited circles and had to run back to give one of Shelbys pups a kiss goodbye. He often stays with my sister and he loves her and her dogs but he never runs back to the door for any reason. He was so relaxed and clearly worn out feom playing so much. Shelby is terrific. You xan certainly entrust her qith the care of your fur-baby with confidence!”

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring pet lover who understands that every pet deserves attention, patience, and lots of love while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddle time, I treat every pet like family. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to giving pet parents peace of mind while their best friend(s) is in my care. I currently work as an ICU nurse 3 days a week. I have a dog and a cat that are my best friends and my extra days are spent spoiling them rotten. I’m looking to care for other pets the way I do my own. I provide a comforting and nurturing environment while a pet is in my care. I follow routines closely including meals, playtime, walks, and medications as needed. I can also provide photos and messages for updates as desired.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, usually multiple at a time, all shapes and sizes. Your pup will receive top-tier, attentive care with your instructions followed to the letter. Beyond that, expect plenty of walks, play sessions, cuddles, and adventures. I genuinely love dogs and treat every pet like my own. As a student, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate almost any timing mornings, evenings, weekends, you name it. I work around your needs and will always make your pet my top priority. I have a friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends! When watching pets in your home, you can expect to come back to everything exactly as you left it, if not a little cleaner. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care.
About: I have 3 dogs, 2 Australian Shepherds and 1 Chihuahua. All the pups are 9 years old and love meeting new pup friends. They love to perform tricks and run around the back yard. I am a stay at home mom (but I will not bring them with me) and my husband works remote so I can be flexible. I have trained them to do tricks and have manners. I am also available to let out dogs or take them on walks. My schedule is very flexible. I love all animals and have had dogs all of my life. I like to walk my dogs every day. I am a stay home mom and my husband works remote so I have flexibility in my schedule and the ability to do my services during normal working hours. I prefer to not stay in the home overnight. I will always greet my pups and friends with a friendly smile and loving pets. I will make sure they are fed, have plenty of water and time to play with me. I think walks are important so I will take them on a walk unless told not to.

“Lola had an amazing time with Melissa and her family! They sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Lola was treated like part of the family and received lots of love and attention. I would absolutely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter, and we would definitely book with them again!”
“Lori is wonderful with dogs. She treated our Gracie like a princess. She takes them to a huge farm where they can run and play in a safe environment. Lori is a sweetheart. I highly recommend her.”
“Elizabeth and Phillip took great care of Hannah, and kept us informed and up to date with messages and pictures. Would certainly engage their services again!”
“Ryo took care of our sweet Maddy and worked with us on such short notice. We appreciated the communication and pictures and can tell she was well cared for. We will definitely be contacting him again for doggie sitting in the future. Thanks Ryo!!”
“Beth took amazing care of Monty! He got plenty of exercise and attention and I got plenty of updates while I was away. It was clear when he got home that he was far happier than when I've had to kennel him on trips. I would definitely call Beth again when I go out of town.”
“Ebony looked after Sir Loin after a last minute booking for his first time staying at a dog sitter. She was very professional throughout the entire process and provided updates during Sir Loins stay and made sure to address any concerns I had about his first time away from home. Sir loin came home very happy and relaxed and obviously had a good time! I definitely recommend Ebony if you want to have your dog staying at a happy caring family home and the peace of mind that your dog is in good hands!”

“Ziggy seemed to have a great time with Jeremy & Laura! It was only a short stay, but Ziggy seemed happy in the pictures I received from them. I’ll look to use them again in the future to dogsit!”
“Caroline and her husband took great care of our Rose. She sent photos and videos to let us know how Rose was doing while we were on vacation, which helped us being away from her.”
“Eliane was amazing!!! She made us feel so comfortable and provided regular updates with great photos. She took our dog on long walks and spent quality time with her throughout our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our dog!”
“We had to find someone last minute to watch our dog Leo , I came across this website and started to read reviews , and if they would take a large dog like Leo. Most sitters didn’t take dogs that wasn’t neutered, or they wouldn’t take him because of his breed. Then I came across Grace’s profile and read all the amazing reviews and read about her history with animals etc , so we knew she was the one. Leo has never been with anyone else besides my fiancé , son & I but as soon as we dropped him off he was already loving it and grace. She kept us updated the entire time with pictures and letting us know how Leo was doing. He loves her big backyard and I just know he loved it at Grace’s house. She was very sweet and you can just tell how much she loves and cares about all animals. 10/10 would recommend Grace and we need a dog sitter again we know who to call ☺️”
