“Kathy was absolutely great with my precious old puppy. I booked with her while I went away for a few days. Lola is older and requires medication and some other specific things, and Kathy was on top of everything and gave me updates and photos every day. I knew that lola was in good hands and didn’t have to worry for a second about her. I could tell that lola was very loved and taken care of while she stayed there. Kathy even put a rug down prior to Lola’s stay because she immediately noticed during our Meet & Greet that lola would have trouble with the hard floor - such a sweet animal lover! Highly recommend and will be rebooking in the future 😊”


“I had a very short-term need at the last minute and Katrina came to the rescue! She was really easy to work with on the booking and her communication is extremely responsive and quick. All this comes second to the great care she took of my dog Toto, even though our stay was short. She sent pictures and updates while I was away which was really nice as this was our first stay with her. You know your dog is happy with their care when they go to the dogsitter and wag their tail and bid them farewell! Thank you Katrina!”

About: I’m 21 years old and have grown up around animals my entire life. I have hands on experience caring for a wide range of pets, especially dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve had dogs my whole life from Chihuahuas and Dachshunds to Pit Bulls and Belgian Shepherds so I’m comfortable with everything from small, high energy pups to large, working breeds. I still care for my childhood Dachshund and currently have a Belgian Shepherd, which has given me strong experience with daily routines, training basics, exercise needs, and attentive care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Pet care is my full time job, so it’s fully built into my daily and weekly routine. This allows me to dedicate my time and attention to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s walks, feedings, playtime, medications, or just extra companionship. Since this is what I do every day, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide reliable, consistent care and give your pets the attention they deserve. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in both my home and my clients’ homes. I carefully follow all instructions, maintain clean environments, secure doors and gates, and closely monitor pets to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times.

About: I have experience working at a doggy daycare and boarding. There I have learned how to bathe, nail trim, read body language, and deeply care about these furry friends. I worked with all kinds of dogs, ranging in size/breed and age. I also have owned dogs my whole life, as have my friends, which I pet sit for frequently. I can pills dogs and disperse ear medication. My availability is fairly open. I can be more specific with the pet parents as we connect, in order to find something that works great for both of us. I do not offer services within my home, as I live in an apartment downtown. However I will follow any instructions given diligently. I have experience in reading dog's body language, which will give me insight into what I need to do and how to keep the pup safe.

“Emily was AMAZING! She looked after my 10 year-old tortoiseshell cat for two days and I was satisfied. She exemplified perfect communication, was very kind, and quite accommodating. I would recommend Emily to anyone.”

About: I’ve always had multiple dogs and cats in my home, until I retired and moved here. I want to be able to nurture and care for your pet, as either a sitter, or for boarding in my home. They would have my full attention, and be spoiled. I’m retired, and home most days/nights. I can give your pet my full attention, either by sitting or boarding in my home. Usually available on short notice. I don’t have any animals in the home. I don’t have a fence, but have a large yard in a rural area, distant from any busy roads. Would always accompany them closely when outdoors. The animals would have free roam of my home, including furniture and beds.
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!
“Kendra was great with Leroy, flexible with us, and a wonderful communicator. Leroy was tired after playing the 6-7 hours in great hands for day care. We'd gladly have him go there again if in the area. Thank you!”

About: I am a HUGE dog lover & would love to give some loving to your fur baby!

I am very friendly & promise I will treat your pup as if they are my own! I have been taking care of dogs for 15 years, but have had dogs my entire life.

Let me know your pups favorite thing to do & any treat restrictions - I am very flexible and will give your dog the best care I possibly can!

“Emily has been walking our dog 3 times a week for a while now. She is reliable, and she's great about communicating any changes in her schedule as well as adjusting to changes in our schedule.”
