“Erin is fantastic! She kept us updated with photos, made our dog Juno feel like she was at home! Juno got lots of play with other dogs and lots of lovings. Definitely will rebook again! Can’t thank Erin enough for keeping us at ease while gone.”
“Peyton was excellent. Very easy to book, quick to respond, and super smooth handover of our dog, Stella. Usually Stella gets nervous when we drop her off at a sitter's, but I think Peyton's confidence in just taking her leash and leading her into her house made Stella comfortable following her. We got daily updates and photos, and Stella seemed happy in every picture. I will definitely be using Peyton's services again (well, at least trying to, as I already went to book again, and she was already booked up, so obviously I'm not the only one who feels this way!) Fantastic experience!”
“Treated our baby as one of her own. Sent pictures throughout the entire stay along with updates on how our girl was doing. We already have our next day booked with Baylee. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Bree was quick to respond, helpful with questions, and a good, clear communicator. She assisted with boarding overnight for my dog, and it was a great assist as I traveled through the area. She took photos and sent an update, and was available for the drop off and pick up times, as planned. She was friendly and helpful, and took good care of my dog. So very grateful for her help! Will be working with her again!”
“Elizabeth is amazing! My dog fits right in to her pack and I feel comfortable leaving her there. She sends pics and keeps me updated on my dogs health as well. I recommend!”
“The best person anyone could ever leave your fur baby! It is simply another part of her family and has friends to play with! Would recommend her time and time again! Thank you Amanda for taking care of our Maggie! She was basically sad to leave but that says a lot in itself! The best!!!!”
“Mariah was a great sitter for Frankie for 11 days. He was happy and healthy when we returned. She sent lots of nice photos which was a plus. We hope we can use her for our pup on our future trips”
“Jessie was great with our dog and I could tell he enjoyed being with her. She was also so attentive in reporting back to us how he was doing. I would definitely recommend her as an excellent pet-sitter.”
“Rollie and his family were amazing sitters. They live in a very pet friendly house. Plenty of space and a fenced in yard. Their own dog, Bailey, was super friendly and they all played together so well. Will board again.”
“Kendra was great! She kept me updated and sent pictures the whole time. This was the first time I’ve used a dog sitter and I will absolutely use Kendra the next time I need someone to keep my baby.”
“Alionta was super great with our two dogs! Her communication was great and she was very flexible with our pick up and drop off times. Our dogs are very hyper but Alionta was patient with them and had a fenced in back yard for them to take their energy out, when definitely needed. Our dogs would definitely love to go back!”

I specialize in creating peaceful, hygienic environments—yes, even deep-cleaning litter boxes is part of my joy. I believe that a clean space is a loving space, and I take pride in maintaining comfort and calm for every creature in my care. From playful pounces to midnight meows, I’ve lived the full spectrum of cat companionship. I offer intuitive, compassionate care tailored to each animal’s personality, and I’m honored to support their well-being while you're away.

About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was able to walk. I’ve always had dogs and cats. In 2021, I worked at a doggy daycare in Lexington, KY. I was in charge of caring for the boarding dogs, which included feeding, walking, playtime, and cleaning. I even administered shots and medicines to dogs that needed them. Over the years, I have taken care of neighbors’ and friends’ pets. I love animals more than the average person, and I will love your animals as if they’re my own. I currently work part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets. I attend college online, so I’ll be able to fit every one of your pet’s needs into my schedule!

About: Cats are great they are very affectionate I do understand that cats have their own personalities and some might like their own space but I have no problem playing with them, cleaning litter boxes, checking in on them making sure they have fresh food and water. I also offer home cleaning if needed
About: I have had animals my entire life— I come from a family who loved having animals; dogs, birds, cats, you name it. I have had my own pets for 5 years since I’ve had my own house(s) & my favorite compliment from anyone is when they comment on how well-behaved & friendly my pets are. I hike a lot & have taken my friends’ dogs on many walks. I’m the go-to person my friends & family ask to watch their pets, check on them, feed or walk them, etc. I’m extremely reliable & responsible— I value punctuality & kindness in all I do. I have a lot of free time and flexibility with my schedule as I work from home. I have plenty of time off on the weekends, as well. I always make time for animals and nature— that’s what brings me peace and balances out the work-week. I live in a lovely, largely grassed apartment complex with big stretches of yard for pets to play in and do their business. The area I live in in Newark is safe and there’s plenty of sidewalks and lovely trails near by for walking. My home is pet-friendly, both dogs and cats are welcome, they won’t be shunned from the furniture and they will always have a lot of attention as I work from home. I do have a cat as well, but she is very relaxed and friendly with all animals and people alike. My friends bring over their puppies and cats to play with Twig (my cat) all the time! I have lots of space for crates if needed, too— along with a litter box if I ever board another cat/kitten!

“Lindsay took exceptional care of our dog - Kiley, on Saturday and again on Sunday! We couldn’t be more pleased. Kiley went right to her and didn’t seem nervous or upset. Lindsay ensured she was exercised, plenty of potty breaks, watered and offered food, although Kiley decided she would wait until she was home to eat. Expected that! Really appreciate knowing Kiley was well taken care of and we will definitely use her again when we vacation in Grand Rivers, Kentucky. Thanks a million Lindsay & Kenny!”
About: Hi everyone, I’m Bree! I provide reliable, loving care for dogs/cats in a safe home environment here in Calvert City. Soon to be in Murray as I will be relocating in April 2026! Pet care is my full-time focus, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including energetic puppies and sweet senior pups who may need a little extra patience and care. Whether your dog enjoys running around the yard, going on walks, playing with toys, or just relaxing and getting cuddles, I adjust their routine to match what they’re used to at home so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and right at home. I’m available throughout the week for my services and have a flexible schedule. Pet care is my main focus, so I am able to give dogs plenty of attention, outdoor time, and supervision throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and enjoy outdoor time. All potty breaks and playtime are supervised, and I carefully monitor interactions to keep everyone safe and comfortable. I always try to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed and at home. My focus is on providing a calm, safe environment where every dog gets plenty of attention and care.
About: I grew up surrounded by animals—horses, cats, and dogs—which naturally led to a lifelong love for caring for and working with them. I pursued this passion academically by earning a degree in Animal Science and professionally by spending five years in the horse industry, where I gained experience in veterinary care, herd and barn management, as well as training and showing. I’ve also worked in veterinary clinics, where I developed strong skills in safe pet handling, basic first aid, and administering medications. In addition, I have experience with puppy training and basic obedience, and I’ve completed courses to certify my own dogs as Canine Good Citizens. Now settled with my husband, who is active-duty military, I enjoy providing calm, reliable, home-style care for pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved while their families are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom to one baby boy who already loves his furry “brothers,” which means I’m home most of the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I live a simple, calm lifestyle and enjoy adjusting to each dog’s needs—whether that’s dedicated playtime for high-energy dogs, structured walks, or a relaxed day with couch time and snuggles. Because I’m home, pets are never left unattended for long and are treated as part of the family during their stay. I live a simple, calm lifestyle and tailor care to each dog’s individual needs. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training reinforcement, and medication if needed. High-energy dogs receive dedicated play and enrichment, while more laid-back pets enjoy a relaxed pace with plenty of affection and snuggle time. Because I’m home throughout the day, pets are rarely left alone and are treated like part of the family—kept safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: My approach to pet care is rooted in patience, genuine love, and treating every dog as a valued member of the family. With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and puppies, I deeply understand that pets require more than just basic needs. They thrive on love, reliable structure, and a comfortable place to stay while you are away. My goal is simple: to give pet parents complete peace of mind during vacations or work trips, knowing their animal is in safe and genuinely loving hands. I am excited to shower your beloved companion with care and make a new connection. I am a stay at home mom so I would be able to adjust to almost any schedule. I would be able to give one on one care to your special pup! I would love your dog to be able to make a comfortable living space. We have a small fenced in yard to play and potty breaks, but I am very comfortable with leash walking for bathroom breaks and exercise. We are able to use a crate if needed for night time, I also don’t mind a dog sleeping on our couch for added comfort if that’s what the dog is comfortable with. I truly want it to be a specialized and adjustable experience to whatever the fur baby needs.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover and I have a soft spot for the seniors. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes, including administering medication as needed. I have my own animals on a schedule for feedings and medications. I have a large fenced in backyard so your pet will get lots of exercise and play time. My youngest dog is 3 and he will be your fur baby’s best friend. I am currently a stay at home pet mom and my new job will be working from home so your pet will get lots of one on one attention.

“This was my first time using Rover. I was a bit nervous but Kendra was great. She had me introduce my dog, Leo, to her dogs through the fence before bringing Leo inside the fence. The dogs interacted great. Kendra also sent me a picture of Leo letting me know things were going well. It's great to be able to get away and not have to worry about you pet. Thanks Kendra!”

About: I grew up on a hobby farm in Wisconsin and worked with many animals including cows, horses, pigs, goats, chickens, but my favorites were always the dogs. Growing up I can’t remember a time in which I haven’t been taking care of an animal wether it was walking them, feeding them, bathing them, or just giving them the love and attention they deserve. During the week I work from home. I’d be able to toilet your fur baby every 2-4 hours. We do have a yard with a fenced in portion they can play at.Your pup wouldn’t have to be alone as I have an 1 year old German Shepard for them to play with. We are very active including walks in the morning before work and after work. We are outside as much as we can be. I care for pets by waking up early in the morning for walks, make sure their tummies are full before I start work in the day. During the day since I work remote I’m able to cater to their needs and lifestyle. Every night we would end up going on walks in the neighbor hood or playing in our backyard.I know it’s hard to be away from your pets especially during vacation time. I would send picture updates of your fur babies during their stay.

I approach each task with intention and honor, recognizing how much trust goes into watching your home and pets. Clean water bowls, fresh bedding, and a tidy environment aren’t just details—they’re part of how I show love. I take pride in creating a space where dogs feel safe, soothed, and seen.
About: I've taken care of cats, dogs and ferrets for many years! I always put my pets first before anything else. I mostly enjoy spending time outdoor and being active with dogs, making sure they get plenty of exercise. When I'm with my cats my favorite thing to do with them is have them chase the red laser! My ferrets enjoy running through tubes and playing in their own ball pit. I am currently looking for a full-time job, but for the meantime my schedule is completely free! When I do get a job I will still focus on taking care of your furry babies. Although I am unable to keep your pets at my place, I am more than happy to come to your house at pet sit! I will feed them when needed, make sure to give them all kinds of love and attention the whole time I'm there, prescribe medicine when needed (Although, the only type of medication I have prescribed to my furbabies has been flea medicine, so if your pet needs different medication please teach me!).
About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals, grew up on a farm, and currently live on one. I currently work with horses. I quit nursing to do something I love and work with animals. If I cannot give your animal the care I would expect mine to get for some reason, I won't take the job. I currently work with horses every day. I live on a farm where we have goats 🐐, horses 🐎, chickens 🐔, a pig 🐖, cats 🐈, dogs 🐕, a rabbit 🐇, and a guinea pig so I'm no stranger to animals. I care for my clients pets as if they are my own. If my scheduling conflicts with their care, I will simply turn the job down because it's just not fair to them. I'm not really about leaving them locked up. I enjoy playing with them, walking them, and getting to know their personalities.

We are able to use a crate if needed for night time, I also don’t mind a dog sleeping on our couch for added comfort if that’s what the dog is comfortable with. I truly want it to be a specialized and adjustable experience to whatever the fur baby needs.
“Ayla was a wonderful sitter and walker! She even brought an extra food bowl for my pup when I told her I only had his water bowl! She was attentive, on time and lovely to work with! Thank you Ayla??”

About: I've had animals in my life forever, but I currently have three cats of my own, and I dogsit often for my family. Hope to get a dog of my own in the near future. I currently don't have a job so I am available any day and any time. Occasionally in middle Tennessee for the weekends but can definitely put pet-sitting needs first.

About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime, just have to work around my husbands schedule! But that shouldn’t be an issue. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily
“Kayla is wonderful with our Dottie girl! Dottie is so excited to see her. She is a new pup and Kayla is so patient, kind and playful with her! Kayla is incredibly communicative, she is always timely and gives us such peace of mind knowing our Dottie is in great hands! We feel so fortunate to get to work with Kayla!”
About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself. When it comes to my fur babies - they have been a part of my life for nearly a decade. Whether its my own, families, or friends - I'm always striving to offer my attention and care to making sure our four legged friends are not only taken care of but shown love. I'm blessed that I routinely get to balance my week by reducing the burden on pet parents seeing more of my furry friends! I live in a house with a fenced in back yard and a cat that is a sweetheart. I treat other people's pet like my own.
About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.
About: I have had animals my entire life— I come from a family who loved having animals; dogs, birds, cats, you name it. I have had my own pets for 5 years since I’ve had my own house(s) & my favorite compliment from anyone is when they comment on how well-behaved & friendly my pets are. I hike a lot & have taken my friends’ dogs on many walks. I’m the go-to person my friends & family ask to watch their pets, check on them, feed or walk them, etc. I’m extremely reliable & responsible— I value punctuality & kindness in all I do. I have a lot of free time and flexibility with my schedule as I work from home. I have plenty of time off on the weekends, as well. I always make time for animals and nature— that’s what brings me peace and balances out the work-week. I live in a lovely, largely grassed apartment complex with big stretches of yard for pets to play in and do their business. The area I live in in Newark is safe and there’s plenty of sidewalks and lovely trails near by for walking. My home is pet-friendly, both dogs and cats are welcome, they won’t be shunned from the furniture and they will always have a lot of attention as I work from home. I do have a cat as well, but she is very relaxed and friendly with all animals and people alike. My friends bring over their puppies and cats to play with Twig (my cat) all the time! I have lots of space for crates if needed, too— along with a litter box if I ever board another cat/kitten!
“I stayed with my skittish cattle dog at the Alfond Inn for 8 days and Kanisha walked Earl every morning and after only two am walks, Earl was comfortable allowing her into the room while I was away for an afternoon walk. Kanisha was very chill with Earl and always brought her back well exercised and happy. And unlike some walkers, she always spent the entire half hour with my pup rain or shine! I will definitely hire her again.”
“Excellent pet care! I am recovering from surgery and she was able to walk them for 1/2 hour, something that they needed and I needed. We chatted about personal stuff and told her I need her again. She is good. She is getting a better position at work which made me very satisfied.”

“Erin is fantastic! She kept us updated with photos, made our dog Juno feel like she was at home! Juno got lots of play with other dogs and lots of lovings. Definitely will rebook again! Can’t thank Erin enough for keeping us at ease while gone.”
“Peyton was excellent. Very easy to book, quick to respond, and super smooth handover of our dog, Stella. Usually Stella gets nervous when we drop her off at a sitter's, but I think Peyton's confidence in just taking her leash and leading her into her house made Stella comfortable following her. We got daily updates and photos, and Stella seemed happy in every picture. I will definitely be using Peyton's services again (well, at least trying to, as I already went to book again, and she was already booked up, so obviously I'm not the only one who feels this way!) Fantastic experience!”
“Treated our baby as one of her own. Sent pictures throughout the entire stay along with updates on how our girl was doing. We already have our next day booked with Baylee. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Bree was quick to respond, helpful with questions, and a good, clear communicator. She assisted with boarding overnight for my dog, and it was a great assist as I traveled through the area. She took photos and sent an update, and was available for the drop off and pick up times, as planned. She was friendly and helpful, and took good care of my dog. So very grateful for her help! Will be working with her again!”
“Elizabeth is amazing! My dog fits right in to her pack and I feel comfortable leaving her there. She sends pics and keeps me updated on my dogs health as well. I recommend!”
“The best person anyone could ever leave your fur baby! It is simply another part of her family and has friends to play with! Would recommend her time and time again! Thank you Amanda for taking care of our Maggie! She was basically sad to leave but that says a lot in itself! The best!!!!”
“Rollie and his family were amazing sitters. They live in a very pet friendly house. Plenty of space and a fenced in yard. Their own dog, Bailey, was super friendly and they all played together so well. Will board again.”
“Kendra was great! She kept me updated and sent pictures the whole time. This was the first time I’ve used a dog sitter and I will absolutely use Kendra the next time I need someone to keep my baby.”
“Alionta was super great with our two dogs! Her communication was great and she was very flexible with our pick up and drop off times. Our dogs are very hyper but Alionta was patient with them and had a fenced in back yard for them to take their energy out, when definitely needed. Our dogs would definitely love to go back!”
