“Aspen was a great dog mom for my pups while I was out of town. She communicated clearly about the arrangements and expectations. She made sure the pups were taken care of and they had a blast. Came home worn out from playing. She also provided updates and pics while she was watching them. I would gladly use her again!”
“They were absolutely amazing with my dog, Charlie. From the moment we dropped him off, they were kind, patient, and super understanding. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. Charlie was comfortable with them and that gave me a lot of peace of mind. They kept me updated and were very attentive to his needs. I’m really grateful for how well they treated him and I would 100% trust them again. Highly recommend!”

“Elizabeth & Philip took care of our Lexi like she was one of their own. It was our first time leaving our dog under someone else’s care. They gave us peace of mind and updates on her care. We really appreciated it. They will always be our first choice in the future. Highly recommend!!!”
“Lisi took excellent care of senior dog. We had plenty of updates where she looked very comfortable and it seemed like she was really loved on during her stay. She came back happy and acting like her normal self. I would recommend Lisi!”

I'm so thankful to have found her on such short notice, I received updates and not only that but she was super patient when it came to him being nervous around other dogs.

I am so glad to have found her I really cannot thank you enough!💕”

About: Hi! My name is Emm! I am a queer and queer-friendly person and active in my community. I have taken care of animals since I was 8. I raised puppies, walked massive dobermans, and at one point took care of 13 dogs at once! Feeding, watering, cleaning up after, walking, and loving your pet like you would are my top priorities. I lived with my father after becoming an adult and took care of his cat. Animals of all kinds are fine by me! I'm available at any time! When I am not working, I spend my time with my partner, listen to music, and practice my culinary skills. If I stay at your home, I will respect your pets and your things like you're my family. Your pets will be pampered and well cared for. I'll take great care of them, and give them plenty of love and attention.
“Amazing!!! They took such good care of my baby boy! Took him on walks and snuggled with him. Treated my pup like he was apart of their family! 10/10 they are awesome”
“Tammy was a godsend. We discussed how we were going to handle buddy because the alternatives were way too expensive. She offered to board buddy, even though she was not listed for boarding on Rover. She changed her preference to be willing to board. My pup is not an easy one to get along with strangers. When I brought Buddy over there, he immediately took to Tammy and started to explore the house and then the fenced backyard. Tammy was so taken with buddy and he took right to her. She sent me cute photos of him during his stay. Because of her obvious bonding and care for buddy allowed me to enjoy my trip with no anxiety. If I ever have to board buddy again, I will certainly request Tammy if her schedule allows it. I would highly recommend her for caring for your pet.”
“We’ve used Julie twice now and she is nothing short of amazing. Our little girl loves it there and I know she is well taken care of. Julie is super easy to communicate with and very responsive! If you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, book her now!”

“Leslie was great. Our kitty is scared of strangers but she was so patient with him. I was able to enjoy my weekend with family without worrying about my kitty getting his insulin correctly.”
“Olivia is the best, do not hesitate to book her. This is a rebook for us and we will continue to book with her. She is so thorough and conscientious and gives wonderful and comforting updates while we’re away. She goes above and beyond and helps you feel safe leaving your babies in her care!”
“Desiree was approachable, kind hearted, responsive, and accountable. I could tell she wanted to care for my dog to the best of her abilities by the questions she asked. She wanted to not just care for my pet, but be respectful of my home. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time that I have ever done anything like this! And Emma was absolutely amazing. She was on time. She was compassionate and she treated my animals with a genuine love and compassion like I said this was my first time doing this so I was really scared. But she made me feel a lot better. She took pictures of all of my babies and updated me the whole entire process and everything worked out so good. I would definitely be using her again. She was amazing with someone that has a lot of anxiety she was able to calm that down, knowing that my animals were safe overall it was an absolutely great experience 10 out of 10. Thank you so much for watching my animals on the Fourth of July I know it wasn't long, but you still took the time out of your day to come watch my babies for 30 minutes and that means the world to me so thank you so much you're the best and I hope you have a happy fourth and if anyone is reading this, she is literally the best I would choose her over my family members any day”
“Donai was exceptional! I knew when she came to meet Alice and Hank and she got on the floor to meet them, and asked for some treats to win them over, that she had already won over my approval. She gave me daily updates and daily pictures. It made me so happy on my trip to both see them, and also see that they were being well cared for and loved. Would definitely book Donai again!!”
About: I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! Ever since I was a child, I've had a very strong connection with the furry friends around me! I always take the extra time to learn as much as I can about a pet's habits, likes/dislikes, etc. It's my personal goal to make the world a better place for every person (and pet) around me :) My schedule is currently wide open, so I can work with almost any time frame that works for you! I am looking to make animal care my full time career! At my own home, I have a fenced-in yard and a very loving and playful canine companion who is always ready to meet new friends! I have a wealth of experience when it comes to helping animals feel safe and secure.
“Really grateful to Makenzie for stopping by to take care of my fur babies. She kept in contact with me to let me know what was going on, wrote notes on everything she did and gave my babies attention and fed them while I was out of town. She was nice enough to do a meet and greet before I left so I could make sure my big dog would be alright and he immediately wanted her attention when she walked in my door. Will 100% book with her again!”
“We were really happy with the care she gave our dog while we were away. At first our dog was a little shy and unsure, but she eventually warmed up to her and started getting excited for their walks and playtime. I was honestly nice seeing her look forward to the visits. She always made sure our dog was fed and had fresh clean water, and even with only 30-minute visits, she still took the time to walk and play with her. Our dog can pull a lot during walks, but she handled her really well and seemed patient with her. Overall we were satisfied with her care and appreciated the updates and time she spent with our dog while we were away. We’d definitely consider booking with her again. Thank you again!”
About: Taken care of and lived with multiple family dogs since I was a child but I’ve taken care of my own dog personally for the last 7 years.

I live in an apartment, which means I have no fence in the yard, but there is a lot of open grass area near me.

“Brittney is my go-to cat sitter, my cats are so much calmer and happier when she has cared for them while I am away. She is trustworthy, reliable and easy to reach. One of my cats is very shy but comes out for Brittney. My other cat gets a medicated cream on her ear and Brittney has made sure she gets this medication. And she takes wonderful pictures! 😻😻”
“Bayley did a great job taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She followed all the instructions on our guide, sent proof-of-life pictures on every drop-in, and consistently communicated about the timing of her visits. It was such a relief to know our fur babies were in good hands so we could enjoy our trip :)”

“Katelyn was amazing! On our road trip from Nevada to North Carolina we needed care for our dachshund while our family enjoyed some tourist things. We had a few different people watch Lottie and she definitely warmed up to Katelyn the best! We received text from Katelyn keeping us posted while we enjoyed the horse races for Father’s Day and even took her to the park to play. If we lived in the area she would be our regular puppy sitter hands down! Thanks guys. 🤩”

About: I have over 7 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from small breed seniors to high-energy breeds. Jinger (My own pup) is a 6-year-old Female Malinois-Lab mix, so I’m especially familiar with energetic dogs who need structure, attention, and enrichment to thrive. Over the years, I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, rescues, and dogs with unique needs—including leash reactivity, anxiety, and medical routines. The wonderful folks at Southside pet shop had taught me Animal Husbandry by the book (literally). During my time there I had taken care of a wide variety of pets in a professional setting. I comfortable caring cats, and exotic pets too- I am more than at home in a multi-pet household. I ALWAYS approach every pet with patience and empathy. I understand that every animal is different, so I change my care-style (never quality!) to match their needs—whether that’s a long walk, playtime, cuddles or medical needs.

If there is downtime while I am petsitting, I’m usually doing art! In both my own home and when caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owners instructions, because I understand this routine is in place to keep them comfortable, and healthy. This includes using toys, treats and games to make their day rewarding and fun. Maintaining a clean environment is a top priority; food and water bowls are washed regularly and I always make sure each pet is fed according to their specified guidelines.
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was ten years old! Between looking after my own dog and my family's, I have the experience and love to make sure your furry friend gets the attention they deserve! I'm a middle school teacher in the Louisville area, so weekends are the best for house sitting and longer watching periods! During the weekday afternoons, I would love to help check in, play with your pup, or give them a nice long walk! Communication is the most important thing. I will always follow the wishes of the owner to make sure your pets are cared for in the most consistent way possible. Your boundaries are mine, and I always act in the best interest of you and your pets!

I understand how tedious and picky some animals tend to be, so I'm open to any accommodations necessary.

I’m currently working part time, I have a 4 year old son who loves animals so feel it would be great to take on pet sitting part time.. I have a spacious home & also a fenced in back yard for dogs to easily roam around and be comfortable inside or outside etc.
“Janelle was the kindest, sweetest walker! Although I wasn't home at the time, my mom said Janelle noticed Xylo had a lot of energy, and automatically started running with her!! I loved how in tune she was with her!! Highly recommended!!”
About: My beloved family dog passed away right before COVID and left a animal shaped hole in my heart. I’ve been watching dogs ever since and love enjoying all their different personalities. If you’re looking for someone to absolutely love on your pet, I’m your gal. I’m extremely flexible and understand that everyone prefers to raise their pets differently and I will respect all those needs during my time with your pet. I am open to most any accommodations needed. I love going on walks, runs, and hikes with the active dogs but I also LOVE being cozy in the house with sleepier pets. At the end of the day I’m just a girl that wants to love on your pet as much as you do! I am a local graphic designer. I have the convenient ability to work from home when desired so my weekday and weekend schedule is flexible. I live in a home without a fenced in backyard but am in walking distance to a park. I do live with my boyfriend and he is always begging me to watch more dogs so he will provide extra EXTRA loving on top of my own. As for house sitting I always respect your space and always try to leave it better than when I came.
About: I have years of experience taking care of both dogs and cats, and with housesitting as well. I am able to help support animals who have health concerns, special needs, and anxiety. I can administer medication and give shots as well. I have a senior kitty and an adult age cat myself, so plenty of experience with senior care. And I have experience with dogs of all ages, including puppies and seniors. I am happy to work with any owner to accommodate their pets needs and make them feel comfortable while they are away. I am have nearly full availability the next couple of months, so please reach out and I should be able to accommodate any time frame. I will abide by all house and property rules for the animals safety which includes leashes, fences, walking paths. I am happy to work with owners on what they are most comfortable with. I do not bring pets inside my home as my cats are usually not friendly to that! But I am always happy to stay at others homes.

About: Hi! My name is Emm! I am a queer and queer-friendly person and active in my community. I have taken care of animals since I was 8. I raised puppies, walked massive dobermans, and at one point took care of 13 dogs at once! Feeding, watering, cleaning up after, walking, and loving your pet like you would are my top priorities. I lived with my father after becoming an adult and took care of his cat. Animals of all kinds are fine by me! I'm available at any time! When I am not working, I spend my time with my partner, listen to music, and practice my culinary skills. If I stay at your home, I will respect your pets and your things like you're my family. Your pets will be pampered and well cared for. I'll take great care of them, and give them plenty of love and attention.

About: I am experienced with dogs of all sizes and cats! I love animals & all their quirks! I have a dog as well as two cats. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I am currently working from home so I am open to care for your pet in any way they need! Whether they are big, small, chill, or active. I have a large fenced in yard and a very friendly pup to keep your fur babies company. I believe positive reinforcement is the only productive way to interact with animals.
