She is very nice and friendly and her dog Yeti is very friendly and happy to see other dogs. My dog tends to have some anxiety but the atmosphere was so positive for him he was playing with toys and her dog Yeti in no time. I highly recommend her for any services you might need for your dogs. Thank you for taking great care of my boy I appreciate it!”

“I had such a great experience with this dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear how sweet, kind, and genuinely caring they are—not just toward people, but especially toward animals. My dog felt comfortable right away, which gave me so much peace of mind. They were attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which I really appreciated.

“Wow! Molly is fantastic. We left for a 10 day long trip for our honeymoon and she made us feel so at ease. We got daily updates of our sweet boys which helped us stay in the loop during our trip. They adored her and normally when we get home from vacation they are noticeably stressed, but not this time. I cannot thank Molly enough for her genuine love of animals. Smokey and Cheddar thank you too!”

We did an initial visit before the booking just to meet her and see how our cats reacted, they instantly took to her which was a relief.

I tried booking puppy care with her and even though she was at capacity she still made an effort to find a solution for me, offering to do puppy drop ins and even came by to meet us that same night. She was on time, loved on our pups, took lots of photos, and Gabe us updates. Love her and will definitely book eith her again!”

About: About Me: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable pet sitter who treats every animal like family. I have more than 10 years of experience with cats and dogs. My husband, our 5-year-old son, and I care for pets together, so your cutie gets lots of attention, companionship, and a warm home atmosphere. We genuinely enjoy spending time with pets—playing, relaxing, and giving them the affection they deserve. We love the outdoors, so if your pet enjoys it too, we’re happy to include fun adventures like neighborhood walks, gentle hikes, and fresh-air outings—always tailored to your pet’s age, energy level, and routine. If I’m staying in a city with a nearby beach, such as San Jose or San Francisco (where I sometimes visit family), we may also enjoy a beach outing, always with your permission and only if it’s a good fit for your pet. For pets who prefer a quieter pace, we’re just as happy to provide calm companionship, enrichment, and cozy cuddle time at home. Cleanliness and health are a big priority for me. I take pride in maintaining a clean, safe environment—deep-cleaning litter boxes, keeping feeding areas tidy, refreshing water bowls, and making sure pet spaces stay comfortable and sanitary. I believe the small details truly make a big difference for pets and their families. Most importantly, I care for every animal as if they were my own. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to behavior cues, routines, and preferences—whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or senior. Daily Updates: I will send daily updates with photos and videos, so you can see how your pet is doing and feel relaxed while you’re away. I can also include notes on meals, walks/potty breaks, playtime, and overall mood if you’d like. What You Can Expect: Loving, family-style care and companionship Clean, healthy pet environment (litter box/feeding area hygiene) Routine-focused care (meals, meds if needed, walk schedules) Daily photo + video updates for peace of mind On a weekly basis, I set aside time for deeper tasks like thorough litter box cleaning, refreshing food and water stations, and ensuring medications or special diets are handled with care. Because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, these responsibilities don’t feel like chores — they’re a rewarding part of my everyday life. The boarding is available daily after around 3 p.m. When I board pets in my home, I treat them as part of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at ease. Pets stay on their normal routine as much as possible — including feeding times, walks, medications, and bedtime habits — so they feel comfortable and secure.

About: I have over 18 years of hands-on experience working with animals and take pride in providing safe, knowledgeable care for every pet I work with. I’ve trained multiple dogs in behavioral rehabilitation and personal protection, which has given me strong skills in reading body language and handling a wide range of temperaments. I also have experience working as a veterinary technician, so I’m comfortable monitoring pets for health concerns and administering medications if needed. In addition to dogs and cats, I have extensive experience training and handling horses, which has helped me develop patience, consistency, and a deep understanding of animal behavior. I truly care about the animals in my care and believe every pet deserves attentive, reliable, and compassionate treatment while their owners are away. I work from home so I have all the hours to dedicate to your pets and provide the best care possible. Book with me today! I have a full fenced in farm with the ability to keep your furbaby separate from other animals or the ability to let your fur babies play with others. Crates are available as well.

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have several years of hands-on experience caring for horses, dogs, and other pets through barn work and daily responsibilities. My experience includes feeding, grooming, cleaning stalls, administering basic care, and keeping animals on consistent routines. I also previously managed a pet store, where I helped customers with pet care needs and assisted with grooming services, giving me experience working with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. Being involved in cheer and an active lifestyle, I’m used to early mornings, long days, and staying dependable no matter the weather. I’m attentive, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I’m already used to structured schedules and early mornings. Between school, cheer, and my experience working at barns and managing a pet store, I’m very comfortable planning my day around feeding times, walks, and check-ins. I make sure pets stay on their normal routines so they feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m active and outdoors often, so regular walks and playtime are something I genuinely enjoy, not just a task. I’m also reliable with time management, so pets always get the attention and care they need. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routines as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions are followed exactly. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel at ease while they’re away. If pets are in my home, I make sure they have a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and get fresh air safely. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means extra playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to a specific care routine.
“Colin was absolutely amazing! I found him on short notice and he was super accommodating. I have a yorkie puppy who seemed to play fabulously with his Yorkies. Pups came back super tired from all the play time all while Colin kept me up to date with photos throughout the day. Highly recommend and will use again!”
About: Originally from Houston, Texas, I've now had the privilege of living in 4 states. I am new to Louisville, but very excited to explore this new city. Bonus points if it's on a walk with your dog. I have been the go to person for family, friends, even bosses to care for their fur baby. I have experience working with dogs of all sizes from my mom's Puggle (pug+beagle) to a Great Pyrenees. I like to learn and inform myself about pet training so I can gather more knowledge about animal tendencies. I love animals, and hope to own my dog soon after getting a house with a nice backyard! I am still on the job hunt after my boyfriend and I have relocated to Louisville, so I am available for walks any time! I would prefer a 24 notice, but if you need a last minute walker, I'm your gal. I live in an small apartment which is not a suitable space for a dog, but I am more than happy to travel to their homes for walks, feeding, and play time. I'm currently on the job hunt, so rover is my full time gig! I prefer having a 24 hour notice. Sunday's are the only day I have out of my availablity I am very mindful and aware while walking pets. They're able to smell and snifff as much as they'd like but I always make sure to watch the asurrounding area to ensure there is nothing they can eat or swallow.

“Renee and Fritz did a wonderful job walking my dog. It was an extremely hot week here and they demonstrated special care in his heat tolerance. Being sure to notice when he needed to stop for water. Noah is a finicky dog, but he took to them right away. I would not hesitate to use them in the future”

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs since I was six years old, and each one has been a special part of my life. I’m passionate about spending quality time with animals, whether it’s relaxing, playing, or just hanging out with them. I love creating a calm, fun environment for pets that enjoy affection and attention. Taking care of animals has always been a natural part of who I am, and I’m excited to offer that same care and love to your furry friends!

As an organized person, I’ll also make sure everything is cleaned up after meals or playtime. When I’m with your pets, my full attention will be on them, ensuring they stay safe and out of trouble.
About: Every companion has their own individual personality, and I'm here to adapt to whatever your pet's wants and needs may be! Myself and my two dogs, Richardt and Darryl, live in a quiet, kid-free house on four acres of fenced in land. The property is also located near multiple parks for added exploration and walks, if desired. Both of my dogs love other dogs of all breeds and sizes. Richardt is an 11 year old senior Boston Terrier with an incredibly laidback personality, and Darryl is a 2 year old Boston Terrier pup with a playful, curious energy about him. I've been working professionally with animals for the past 12+ years, and have been a proud pet parent for even longer. My work history includes five plus years with the Animal Care Society, Treat's Pet Resort, and PetSuites Resort & Spa, as well as caring for my own personal clients' pets for the past 18 years. I’m also a Level 2 Reiki practitioner and would love to provide holistic energy work as an additional service for your companion, if desired. Feel free to ask any questions you might have! Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to schedule a meet and greet prior to booking as I'd be more than happy to accommodate! I work from home part-time, which allows for me to be readily available to cater to both you and your pet's needs - everything from regular potty breaks, to photo updates, to whatever special needs and/or desires your pet might have. I'm available all days of the week, at virtually any time you might need. The environment your pet will be cared for in is one that provides calmness, safety, and security. Whatever your pet's desires may be, you can expect for them to be met by my two dogs and myself. If they want to play, we can play! If they want to nap, we can nap! It's your dog's world, we will merely just be living in it. I have two additional crates your pet(s) can use, if needed. In addition to crating, I also have a baby gate if you think your pet might prefer some time away from others at any point during their stay. You can rest assured knowing that your dog will have the perfect balance of structure, play, and relaxation when staying with us.

Walking, grooming, sitting, boarding, obedience work, tricks you name it i can help you achieve a happier healthier Dog!! Also need grooming I gotcha covered. I can help you with your all around dog needs!! My daily routine is all about dogs! I am a part time groomer, that specializes in doodles of all sizes. I also worked as a puppy raiser for protection dogs and service dogs. I also owned a doggy daycare for over a year. All things dogs all day. Every fur baby is different and when it comes to dogs you have to be prepared and ready for anything. There is nothing I can't handle when it comes to your fur babies needs.
About: I was fortunate enough to be raised in a home with a variety of animals! I have had dogs my entire life, and cats for the last decade, with bunnies, frogs, hamsters, hermit crabs, and more along the way! Anyone who knows me, knows how important my pets are to me. They are more than pets, they are my family! I have had big, medium, and small dog breeds, and worked with cats with all different personality types and backgrounds. I understand how important it is to have peace of mind with the person responsible for your family members when you're away, and with me you will never doubt that your fur babies are being spoiled! Working with me, you'll find that I can accommodate any request or 'weird pet quirk' that you may throw my way. I find that animals respond well to my calm and genuine nature, and it provides enjoyment for me as well! I just recently got engaged and am hoping to help fund my wedding and future home, please reach out if you have any questions or special requests! I am also known to send probably too many pictures while you're gone, for that extra reassurance that all is well! I look forward to becoming a part of your village, please don't hesitate to reach out for all pet and house care needs! I work from home as a mental health professional and create my own schedule, so pet care can fit very easily into my routine. I will be as flexible as possible with the families I work with, and communication will never be a concern! At this time, in order to protect my own fur babies and yours, I will not be bringing client's pets' into my own home. I find that pets are more comfortable in their own environment most of the time, and I would rather keep their comfort a priority. I follow directions provided by the families on how to best keep their pet comfortable with a new person entering their space. Reading their behavior and body language is so important!
About: I’m a dog trainer with 5+ years of experience and I own my own training business, Canine Communication, LLC. I’ve worked with almost every breed of dog and specialize in obedience, manners, and puppy development; I have also trained therapy dogs and protection dogs. I am well versed in animal behavior and pride myself on helping my training clients better communicate with their canine companions. Before starting my training career, I dog sat while I attended Bellarmine University. I have dog sat for several families in their homes and have also boarded dogs in my home through my training career. As a dog trainer who owns her own business, I have a great deal of flexibility which allows me to not only serve my training clients, but to best serve my walking and sitting clients as well. My schedule allows me to ensure all dogs under my care receive dedicated time and attention. I live on a few acres and have multiple long lines (long leashes that are 15-20 feet) that I use to potty break and walk client dogs around the property. They get to romp and sniff and enjoy a sense of freedom while still safely on leash. I have multiple crates of varying sizes inside that I use when I am not home. Pet safety and health is paramount for me.

What You Can Expect: Loving, family-style care and companionship Clean, healthy pet environment (litter box/feeding area hygiene) Routine-focused care (meals, meds if needed, walk schedules) Daily photo + video updates for peace of mind On a weekly basis, I set aside time for deeper tasks like thorough litter box cleaning, refreshing food and water stations, and ensuring medications or special diets are handled with care. Because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, these responsibilities don’t feel like chores — they’re a rewarding part of my everyday life. The boarding is available daily after around 3 p.m. When I board pets in my home, I treat them as part of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at ease. Pets stay on their normal routine as much as possible — including feeding times, walks, medications, and bedtime habits — so they feel comfortable and secure.
“Brooke is fantastic! Our high-energy dog gets great exercise and adores her. Brooke is friendly, trustworthy, and reliable. Great experience. We highly recommend her.”
About: Hi there! My name is Hailey Vasquez! I am self employed in the wellness industry, so I work from home! I am a coast guard wife and we live in pet-friendly apartment. I work from home and my hours are up to me so I am blessed to be able to take breaks throughout the day and walk my dog along with any other dogs I’m watching! I love going for walks, so taking dogs with me is just a cherry on top! I take care of my dog daily! First time, morning walk and breakfast! Always making sure her water and food are fresh! And 2-3 more walks throughout the day and into the evening. I always use a leash and walk dogs one at a time if they don’t want walk with others! I stay in the safety of sidewalks when possible. I am primarily doing dog sitting in the owner’s home.
“awhh!!! she eased me nerves so good! she spent the extra time with my baby letting her play and get to know her!! my dog has a ton of anxiety and they are besties now!! so pleased with this experience!”
About: Not only have I worked with animals my whole life I also work with dogs specifically with a rescue organization called AdoptMeBluegrass. I help with their animal care weekly and am part of their foster program. My family and my own dogs have welcomed hundreds of others into our home and always provide excellent care. I am a local landlord and typically only go out to work at the pet adoption center for AdoptMeBluegrass. I have no set work hours. I spend my time with the dogs. I have a double fenced property on a dead end street. Dogs love the 3/4 dedicated dog yard for them to play on our 6 acres of land. We have crates and can make your pet feel right at home. I’m a treats giver so let me know if there is something they can’t have or any other dietary restrictions. I can also come to your pet for services while you are away.
About: I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible! I can stop by your home to let your dog out or take them on a walk! I’ve had a dog ever since I was brought home from the hospital, so I’ve had experience for 25 years. I love ALL dogs, I’ve had a Yorkie that weighed 4 lbs and a boxer who weighed 65 lbs, so I am open to watching dogs of any size that you need help with! I am close to the expressway which means it will be easy for me to get to your dog. I’m also a professional photographer and will provide you with great pictures of your precious dog while they’re with me and send to you while you’re away! I work from home the majority of the time and and have a very flexible schedule, if I have to leave for work, it is no more than 2 hours. I also have a fenced in yard which has plenty of space for your pet to run and play. I will always make sure to follow the instructions owners give me. I never give pets any food or treats that the owner has not approved and will make sure they get plenty of love, play time, potty breaks, and water.
“Angela is a lifesaver! I have been working extra at the hospital every weekend due to Covid and her coming to walk my dog every morning that I work has been priceless. Her positive, upbeat and energetic attitude is just what my 8 month old Labrador needs after being in the house all night. And with my hurt back, just what I need after a 12 hour shift on my feet. I haven't used Angela for other services yet other than dog walking, but when I need them, she'll be the first one I ask. She is punctual, responsible, considerate, full of energy and always puts a smile on my Sochi's face!”

“Gabriella was a terrific host for my boy Jax. She gave me many updates with pictures and videos and met all Dietary needs my 10 year old pup needed. She is very nice and friendly and her dog Yeti is very friendly and happy to see other dogs. My dog tends to have some anxiety but the atmosphere was so positive for him he was playing with toys and her dog Yeti in no time. I highly recommend her for any services you might need for your dogs. Thank you for taking great care of my boy I appreciate it!”

She made sure to send me lots of messages and lots of photos and I felt very comfortable leaving Ivan in her care. would highly recommend her I cannot say enough good things.”
“We had the best experience! Our dog was well loved and got loads of playtime and care while we were traveling. He was great about photos and videos, which helped ease missing her. Stefan was friendly, personable, professional, and reliable. We’ll book with him again, no doubt.”

“Unlike boarding facilities or vets' offices where he has stayed in in the past, Sprite was happy and content while with Arla and her family. Being an "only" dog, Sprite really enjoyed his social time with Charlie and Winston. I don't know who had a better time on their vacation; us or our dog! We will definitely use Arla again.”
“We couldn't be happier with the care provided during our overnight stay! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and photos that gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy, well-cared for, and clearly received lots of attention and affection. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter!”

They really enjoyed themselves and were wore out from playing with Axel and one another while we were away. Would highly recommend Meagan for your pet’s booking needs. We will book again forsure!”
“Basil had a great time staying with Elizabeth and Phillip. The care was top notch, and I was kept up to date through texts and pics. I can always tell when Basil has a good stay experience because she comes home and is chill. Thank you!”
