“Elizabeth and Philip provided the best possible care for my senior dog. I highly recommend them and would have no hesitation in trusting them with my fur baby again.”
“Sharon is absolutely amazing! My boy is a very anxious boy and has severe separation anxiety. Sharon had him so comfortable and settled almost immediately. I am so grateful to her for the care and love she gave Salem while I was out of the country for two weeks. Sharon provided me multiple daily updates complete with adorable videos of Salem. Her dog, Wes, was the perfect buddy for Salem too! Her fenced-in yard is fantastic for doggies to sniff and play in. I was so nervous to leave my boy for so long, but having Sharon as his sitter truly made all my worries disappear. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding when I had a flight delay. I cannot recommend Sharon (and Wesley!) enough!!”
“I felt so comfortable knowing that Megan was caring for my girls while we were on vacation! We even had some cute pics to enjoy showing that they were having a great time.”
“Crystal was very trustworthy. She let me know how my dog Hollow was interacting on a daily basis.

Thanks for allowing us to feel assured while we were on our vacation”

Daisy can be hard to handle during thunderstorms and with strangers, but Missy was able to calm her enough to get her to her house and keep her for the rest of my trip. This is quite the feat considering we'd only left the pups with Missy once before. I can't recommend her enough!”

“I cant say enough good about Catherine. She is extremely professional and she has a true passion and love for dogs. And it shows.

Catherine really is great at what she does and I would not hesitate to use her again.”

About: Hi, I’m Sam — a reliable pet caregiver with 116+ 5⭐ reviews, flexible scheduling, and a big heart for animals! I’ve been a dog walker + drop-in sitter for about 2 years, and pets bond to me quickly. I treat every dog like my own — with patience, affection, and lots of attention to safety. 🐾 What I offer: • Dog walking (short + long walks available) • Drop-in visits (feeding, potty breaks, playtime) • Medication given if needed • Puppy care + senior pet patience • Updates + photos every visit 📸 • Last-minute/same-day bookings welcome I love meet-and-greets, but I’m also happy to step in when you need help quickly. My goal is for you to travel or work stress-free, knowing your fur baby is safe, loved, and entertained. Experience: I’ve raised and owned 3 dogs over the years and currently share life with 3 hilarious cats who think they're dogs. Animals have been a major source of joy my whole life — caring for them feels natural, not like work. 💛 A typical visit/walk: We’ll get movement, sniff breaks, playtime, cuddles, fresh water, treats (if allowed!), and mental stimulation. I can reinforce training methods you’re working on too. Your pet’s comfort and routine come first — tell me their quirks, favorite toys, and any rules you’d like followed. I’m here to make your baby feel safe and happy while you’re away. 🐶 Let’s schedule a meet + greet — I’d love to care for your furry family member! I work from home, which lets me offer flexible visit times for walks and drop-ins throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend care — and I do my best to accommodate same-day requests whenever possible. Safety and communication are top priorities for me. I love doing meet & greets so I can learn your pet’s routine, personality, feeding instructions, and any special needs. I follow your home guidelines, provide photo updates during visits, and ensure your fur baby is safe, happy, and loved every time.
“Our dog loves going to Emily & Pedro’s!!!! He is always running up to their door every time we come over. Always super responsive and send lots of updates and videos.”

I also live close to a park that we can go to. I have a friendly German shepherd who likes to play with other dogs. I will treat your pet like they are my own and let them make themselves at home.

“Jared and Waverly were great with our dogs, and even managed to get my curmudgeon named skittles to positively interact with a couple older dogs! They were flexible and understanding of my changing schedule, as we were on a road trip and only needed help for a few hours. If I’m ever in Louisville with the doggos again I’d contact them straightaway”
“Suki had a great time! Mariah was very sweet and texted immediately whenever I was being a nervous Nelly and checking in on my pup. Suki came home and went straight to sleep so I count that as a win!”

“Kimba had a great time with Sarah. She took great care of Kimba and sent pictures throughout the day. Sarah is very responsive and makes me feel at ease. Kimba has a lot of separation anxiety and it was clear from the photos and when we picked her up that she’d had a great day. I know Kimba was in good hands with Sarah. I’d use her again next time we are in town.”
About: I have helped raise a bottle fed kitten and cared for a senior beagle in his last year. I care for and adopt mostly adult dogs, but I haven't met one I don't like! I work from home, so my schedule is flexible to fit in lots of home visits with overnight stay possible! I have my own dog that goes out 3 times a day already, so fitting in pet care is a breeze! I have an apartment with 2 bedrooms where dogs can sleep separate from my own dog. My complex is very dog friendly with all pets on leash, and large areas to sniff and poop as well as a park & track in walking distance.

I especially appreciated her flexibility when I needed to add an extra walk at the last minute, she was incredibly accommodating and handled it without any issues. It’s a huge relief to find someone so reliable and easy to work with when you're visiting another city for an event. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional and adaptable walker!”

“I have an old and sensitive GSD that I am normally very protective over; I had to leave her for a week and the whole time I felt my dog was completely safe and attended to in Kathryn's hands. She provided meaningful updates and expressed genuine affection, support, and care for my animal. I would definitely have her care for my dog again.”

About: I've had my own dogs and a cat my whole life. Additionally I got my first horse at 12 and have been around large and unique animals forever (even pet deer and alpacas!) From my baby Miniature Pinscher to my Great Dane I am capable of providing individualized care. I am currently a student athlete at DSU. I ride on the equestrian team so after my one in person class I am typically in and out of the barn with lots of time to spare as everything else I do for school is online. Pet care fits into my routine as a priority. I recently moved to Dover for school, and miss my dog terribly. Prioritizing your dogs in my schedule is not just a job for me, but a source of happiness! We have a large backyard for fetch and a safe neighborhood for walks and adventures! One block over we have a small park area as well. We have no other animals in the house, just four college girls who are all missing our companions from home. In the house your dog can roam freely about and sleep in my room/bed with me, whatever they are comfortable with.

It is about a 20 minute drive for me and there are plenty of sitters closer, but I will continue to make the drive, because it doesn’t get any better than her.”
“This was the second time I left my do with Robin. When she opened her front door, Bobo was so happy to see her. And when I left, Bobo was already settled in & didn't follow me to the door when I left.😂. That's when I knew he was happy to be there.”
