“I definitely wanna give a HUGE SHOUT OUT to Dina, she has been super amazing. The moment I think about my Dog, I am already getting a text that she is doing exceptionally well. I was so nervous to drop off my puppy to a stranger. But Dina has made me and my wife worry free. I definitely recommend her, and I will 100 percent use her again for future pet sitting. Also the pictures she has sent me of my puppy every single day, has been nothing but amazing to see that my dog is doing so well. Thank you so so so much. I will recommend her to anyone.”

“Andrew made our Bear feel welcome right away by playing with him and introducing him to his small dog, Lucky Bear. He had lots of room to play inside and was given regular walks. Andrew sent us pictures throughout Bear’s visit and our boy looked very happy. I appreciate Andrew’s quick and thoughtful responses to my text messages. We’d definitely use him again for watching Bear.”
“Haley made me feel so safe leaving my dog with a stranger. I was updated with pictures and activity through the day and it made it so relieving.”

“Oreo gets so excited to go over to Kristin's house and play with their dog Hunter. She always comes home exhausted which is how I know they have just played their little hearts out. Kristin and family are great about sending a daily photo of Oreo. Couldn't be happier with them. Oreo loves going and can't get out of the car fast enough. Kristin's is her second home.”

Thanks Nef for the outstanding service!”

Thanks Lauren.”

“Dina was awesome! She provided written and detailed updates, along with photos from each visit. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to leaving my kitty, but I felt much more at ease being away, knowing that she was there caring for her! Will definitely seek her services again!”
About: I grew up with a himalayan cat, and after she passed I begged for one of my own. My own cat is now almost 10, and stayed back with my parents when I moved to Lexington for school. He roams on acres of land and loves his life. Since moving to lexington, I worked at the Lexington humane society for 4 years as a kennel technician and a veterinary assistant. Through my time there I gained experience with cats of all ages, ranging from bottle babies to fospice, as well as cats of all temperaments. I’ve learned that every cat has different boundaries and ways they like being approached, and while my favorites are always the orange boys, but I love discovering each cats unique personality!
About: I am a vet tech that is passionate about getting pups out and about. Whether is be opinionated or timid, fast pace or slow, sniffer or all business all dogs deserved to get out and about and I am here to help make that happen! My schedule is flexible as my full time job has flexible hours. I am home most weekends and look forward to meeting your furry friend. I understand change can be stressful to dogs so I strive to make the transition and keep their normal routine best as possible. As well as checking in and keeping everyone updated.
“Caitlin was great with our pup! She communicated ahead of time and made sure Shadow was taken care of. She was intentional with playing with him and providing us updates. Will be using her in the future!”
“Came home to a happy, healthy cat! Laura was great, she took care of my high maintenance, wild child while I was away even though he's a handful. Came home to a clean house, and she was nice enough to bring in my package from outside. Loved that Laura kept me updated daily, as it was my first time leaving my cat after recently getting him and the fact that he's an escape artist (she had no issues with him on that front though!), so I was a nervous cat mom. I'll definitely be in touch next time I need a cat sitter. Highly recommend!”
“I could tell how much Isabella loves animals and was completely confident that she would take the very best care of my baby girl. Willow was in good hands and I will definitely book Isabella again.”
“Kayla offered very generous rates for taking care of our cats while we were on our honeymoon. She communicated with us every day, asking clarification to make sure they were safe and happy. She also stopped one of our very outside-lovimg cats from running out the door every day. Overall, a good experience, and we really appreciated the peace of mind from seeing photos of them each day.”
“We booked last minute on a holiday week. Rachel was so reliable and took great care of our cat Bubba. She took daily pictures and gave us thorough updates. It really helped not to worry about our pet on last minute travel.”
About: As a dedicated cat parent to 4 kitties (my oldest is 7!), I offer expert, loving care tailored to your cat's specific personality. I have years of experience managing feeding schedules, keeping litter boxes pristine, and providing the perfect balance of playtime and affection. Your cat will receive the exact same dedicated love and attention I give my own!
“Casey was great watching my two cats while I was gone for over a week! Very easy communication and she sent me so many photos which was great for my peace of mind. My cats warmed up to her so quickly and the photos she was sending me cuddling with the boys made me know my cats were well taken care of while I was away. I’d recommend Casey to anyone looking for someone to watch their pet while they are away, thanks Casey!”
About: I have been caring for dogs most of my life and have experience with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I currently have a well-behaved two-year-old Shih Tzu, which has helped me stay consistent with routines, training, and daily care. Friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets, and I treat every dog like my own. I work Monday through Friday during the day, but I am available in the evenings for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I have full availability on weekends for boarding and extended care, and I make sure every pet receives consistent attention, exercise, and care around my work schedule. I can take your pets on walks, and all of the other essentials. I have two friendly dogs to keep your pets company. I can also crate train your pets if needed I do have crates if your pets need trained.
“Chay took great care of both of my cats! She kept me updated the whole time and took the funniest action shots. I appreciate her taking the time to play with my cats & give them cuddles while I was away! Thank you again Chay!!!”
“Thank you Glenn for taking such good care of our cat, Sunny! It is obvious how much Glenn loves and cares for cats and all animals. Everything was done exactly as we asked. I highly recommend him as a petsitter!”
About: I grew up with dogs and only have started to interact with cats much in the past 5 years - I say this because I love them, however, I am still learning about their behaviors. I have watched two of my friends’ cats regularly with no issues! The more info you can provide me, the better, so I can provide consistency and comfort for your cat while you are away :)

“She did great with my pup. My pup took a surprise trip to her parents house and went on a walk with their pup! My pup was all worn out at the end of the day!”
“Ollie had a great time! Brent sent pics and was a great communicator! If we're back in Lexington, we will definitely have Ollie stay here again!”
“John was excellent! I ended up reaching out to him last minute due to a schedule change, and he was very kind and accommodating. Throughout the day, John sent multiple pictures and updates, and he even spoiled him with some homemade food! Our a little guy had such a great time. Will definitely be bringing him back!”
“Henry had a great day with Kristin! It gives me such peace of mind to know she took such good care of him. He got playtime with a new furry friend. He even got a walk. Thank you Kristin!”
“Kayla has watched my senior dog several times now. My dog has massive separation anxiety, and Kayla is great with her. Harley seems relaxed when she gets home, which is usually a good indicator that she had a good day. Kayla is also an excellent communicator.”
About: I grew up on a farm in NC surrounded by animals, and dogs have always been a big part of my life. Caring for pets comes naturally to me, and I enjoy getting to know each dog's unique personality and needs. I recently moved to Lexington with my husband, who is a veterinarian, which has given me an even greater appreciation for pet health and well-being. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy, a senior needing extra patience, or somewhere in between, I'll provide attentive, reliable care while you're away! I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medications, or simply providing companionship, I follow each owner's instructions closely and treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. As a pet owner myself to an 11½-year-old Maltipoo, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family member.
About: As a dog owner and foster, I have experience caring for senior dogs, nervous rescues, and multiple dogs at once. I prioritize individualized care, patience, and creating a stress-free environment. I work from home full-time, giving me the flexibility to provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship so pets feel safe and comfortable. I believe consistency is important for pets, so I follow their established routine for meals, walks, exercise, and rest. I provide attentive care, patience, and an stress-free environment while making sure owners stay updated. I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time and two senior dogs who are calm and friendly companions.
About: I’ve owned multiple disabled dogs and can care for them. I’m also experienced in giving medicine to animals that may need it. grew up around a lot of different animals and I love spending time with new animals and seeing all the different dog and cat breeds. 😁 I stay at home and my schedule is very flexible, so the fur babies will get plenty of attention and love! They will always have me with them for some company and play time. For my personal comfort and safety, I currently book pet care with female clients only. Thank you for understanding! I can take care of pets in any way that their pet owner would like. I don’t have many rules and would just like for the fur babies to be comfortable in the new environment!
“We've brought our pup to Laura multiple times and it's always been a stress-free experience. Laura is a great communicator and caregiver, and we love working with her!”
“Andrew and family were great with Stella! She and Cosmo played together so much they just chilled out the rest of the afternoon. We are looking forward to our next stay!”
About: I have had dogs and cats in my life for over 50 years. I was so lucky to grow up in a home that was the local Noah’s Arc. This childhood formed my commitment and love to animals. About 20 years ago, I decided to enter the world of pure bred dogs and have been an avid exhibitor and breeder of Pointers and Ridgebacks focused always on good temperaments and health. I love dogs and really believe it’s important that each animal I care for, feels at home, comfortable, pampered, exercised and loved. I have 4 dogs that are super casual and it has been very easy to bring animals into my home. I will only take 1 or 2 dogs at a time, as I want to be able to provide the best care possible for them. Your animals are treated as though they are mine and the care and love they will experience can only be exceeded by you. It’s always stressful for animals to be away from their families, so the more I can do to relieve this stress, the better I feel. I always tease my clients that their dogs may come home a little spoiled. I’m very much available all day really to take care of the dogs as my schedule is very flexible. In addition my brother lives with me and he helps me take care of the dogs. There is always a person at our house while your dog will be visiting. I also offer a military discount for those that have or are serving our beautiful country. I do not work outside of the home, which provides me with a lot of flexibility to provide dedicated care to your pets all day. I think it's important dogs that stay at my house receive the same amount of attention as they would at home and as my dogs do. I also believe it's important not to disrupt their daily routine, so I work closely with owners to understand each Dog needs.
About: We've owned and cared for dogs for over 35 years. Our first dogs were a Lab and a Golden Retriever then a Pug and a Puggle and now the parents of a Lab/Husky mix. We provide loving care with plenty of exercise in our non-smoking, fenced home. We live one block from Jacobson Park and its wonderful dog parks so rest assured your fur baby will receive plenty of attention, exercise, fun and love during its stay. I work from home and my spouse is a stay at home spouse, so we are available to provide constant care, exercise, play time and supervision for your fur baby. Whether is romping in the fenced yard or walks to the dog park, your furry friend will enjoy being part of the pack with our dog. Our fenced yard and quiet cul de sac on a golf course and located a block from 2 dog parks is a great place for your dog to stretch its legs and play to its heart's desire. During warmer times, we'll also spend a lot of time relaxing with your pet in our screened in deck in the back yard with access to our fenced in yard.
About: I have genuine love for animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ve always loved being around them and caring for them with patience and attention. I have experience dog walking, feeding, playing with pets, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important routines are for pets, and I do my best to keep things consistent so they feel relaxed and happy. Im going to be a senior this year at Lexington Christian Academy and have a part time job at the Ymca. Im available during the week 4-10pm. I have a big fenced in yard with a small dog and cat. They are both very friendly towards people and pets. always put pets’ safety and comfort first. I carefully follow pet parents’ instructions and stick to each pet’s routine. Whether in my home or a client’s, I keep the environment calm, clean, and secure, and I closely supervise pets during walks and playtime. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. 🐾
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats since I was a kid my family loves animals. I dog sit for family friends and have taken care of animals as veterinarian tech. I’m currently a student at UK and take a mix of online and short in person classes. My schedule is pretty relaxed as I don’t have classes everyday of the week. When I do have class I’m home a lot between classes and have time to check on animals every 2 hours. I live near campus so I can take your pet on walks around campus or to the park. I live in a pet free and smoke free apartment and can easily crate your pet if needed.
“She is fantastic. Bandit has never been around dogs and he is a ball of energy, but Madison knew exactly what to do. She sent us amazing videos and pictures. Our boy was so happy there and is completely exhausted. She is most definitely our go to from now!”
About: After experiencing the tragic loss of my own cats due to a negligent pet sitter, I became deeply committed to providing the highest level of care for all animals. That experience taught me how vital it is to entrust pets to someone who not only understands their needs but treats them like family. I specialize in senior pet care, offering compassionate support for aging pets, including administering medications, managing health conditions, and providing gentle, tailored exercise routines. I also have experience training puppies, helping them develop good behaviors early on and ensuring they have the structure they need to thrive. My focus is always on building trust and creating a safe, loving environment for your pets, so they feel comfortable and secure when you're away. Above all, I aim to offer peace of mind to pet owners, knowing their animals are in caring, responsible hands. Available almost anytime in Lexington and surrounding areas contact in advance is recommended but we can take last-minute calls depending on the situation and what not. Also I work with you budget! I have a park near me and I do take my own dog to the dog park every chance I get via Lyft and plenty of toys for your fur babies!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, and have taken care of them for as long as I can remember. Throughout my childhood I’ve had dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, parrots and fish in all stages of life. I’ve learned to cater to every need because of this, as every pet needs something specific to their age, size and personality. I can handle pets of all sizes and energy levels, and will treat each just as I would one of my own. I’m a full-time college student home for Summer break, and I have a very open schedule that I would love to fill surrounded by fur babies. I’d like to make pet sitting my full-time job for the season, so I have lots of flexibility and availability. I have a large fully fenced in back yard and live in close proximity to a dog park. I currently have one of my own super friendly dogs at home, and I have plenty of space to welcome yours, and/or separate them comfortably if needed for whatever reason.

About: We would love to take care of your furry family member while you're away! We will make sure he has a marvelous time with all of us. My husband and I grew up on farms in Kentucky and have loved dogs all our lives. Our kids also love dogs! We have a large fenced yard, and there are lots of walking areas nearby. We would take your dog on a walk or let him romp around the yard. We do have a cat named Eleanor and kids, so it is important that your furry friend be comfortable around cats and children. Eleanor mostly keeps to herself, so as long as your dog doesn't chase or bark at her, things should go fine! Why I love dog sitting We've loved dogs our entire lives. We don’t have a dog at the moment so enjoy caring for pups when their owners are away. About my yard We do have a large fenced yard! My experience administering medication Yes, we are comfortable administering medication. I work from home so am happy to have a furry friend keep me company and get some exercise together.

About: Families book with me for loving, family-style care, frequent photo updates (if desired), and the peace of mind that comes from working with a sitter trusted by repeat clients since 2021. 🐶 I simply love dogs. They are truly my passion. 🐾 Caring for them isn’t just something I do, it’s something that fills my heart. 💚 I have a special love and deep experience with breeds such as English Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Lhasa Apsos, Shih Tzus, Shorkies, Greyhounds, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, and Bernedoodles, but I genuinely enjoy caring for all breeds and personalities. Every pup deserves to feel safe, adored, and understood. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. While I can’t be a full-time fur mama to them all, dog sitting allows me to pour love into as many pups as possible and I wouldn’t trade that for anything. It has been such a blessing to learn and care for new breeds through my bookings. Each dog I welcome into my home deepens my knowledge, strengthens my skills, and grows my love for dogs even more. What truly sets me apart is the family experience I provide. When your dog stays with me, they aren’t just “watched”—they become part of our home. While your family is away, your fur baby enjoys a warm, loving, family-style environment filled with cuddles, attention, and genuine connection. I happily send plenty of photo updates (if desired) so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well-loved. My family loves dogs too, and on occasion, trusted family members may stop by simply to meet my furry clients and share a few extra cuddles (not to assist with care), but purely because they enjoy loving on dogs. 🐶 Some of my favorite repeat clients even get to travel with me, including family visits and store outings (photos available!). Your dog gets real-life experiences, companionship, and enrichment—not just a place to stay. Over the years, I have lovingly been a full-time fur mom to up to three dogs at the same time, gaining daily, hands-on experience managing multiple dogs under one roof. Currently, my home includes Khaleesi, my sweet English Bulldog girl. I also carry deep love for my Lhasa Apso, who crossed the rainbow bridge in August 2023 🌈. My Shorkie was lovingly rehomed with an older family member to provide emotional support, and while she no longer lives in my home, she remains part of my extended family story. I’m also what I proudly call a “Mid-Woof” 🐶—I have independently and successfully delivered 4 litters of puppies in my home and have personally whelped, nursed, and raised two litters until 4–8 weeks of age before helping them find their forever homes. I understand canine behavior, comfort, and care on a deeper level than most. I will love on your fur baby as if they were my own. Bulldogs, in particular, require a special level of patience, knowledge, and care and if you’re a bulldog parent, I’m absolutely your girl. (Bulldog hugs are always welcome 😉) I’m proud to share that I have 10+ repeat clients, including several families who have trusted me with their fur babies consistently since 2021—relationships built on love, reliability, and peace of mind. I look forward to being your dog’s Bonus Mom while you’re away. Let’s get your pup booked, loved, and spoiled! 🐾💕 I work in an office Monday–Friday but return home on lunch breaks for potty breaks and check-ins. After working from home for seven years, I’ve adjusted my availability while remaining intentional and reliable. I’m a mom to young children under 10 who are gentle, respectful, and great with dogs 🥰. I’m available for daytime drop-in visits, and on weekends (when in town) I’m fully available for dog sitting in your home, my home, or for additional check-ins. I have plenty of grassy space where I live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I also have a fur baby to keep your dogs company if needed for service in my home. I have a dog area set up in my home. We also travel to dog parks when weather permits, if your dog needs activities, we will go on walks and even to our favorite dog park!
About: I grew up with German Shepherds. Since 2013 I have had the honor of being a mom to 9 dogs who are and have been absolutely loved and spoiled! Bear Gwendolyn (Rottweiler) crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 12 from Osteosarcoma, Spike Jamison ( German Shepherd) crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 10 from Hermangiosarcoma. Enzo Ferarri crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 12 from complications of Cushings Disease. Enzo was my heart and soul pup. I am currently dog mom to: Delco Dani - Female spayed 2 year old Rottweiler Mantequilla Rouix - Female non spayed 1-year old Field Golden Retriever Rookington Highpockets - Male spayed 2 year old Anatolian Shepherd Fia Versace - Female spayed 13 year old Minature Pinscher Rico Suave- Male spayed 12 year old Daschund- chihuahua mix I currently pet sit my 8 month old German Shepherd Fur niece Pepper Jack Cheese I temporarily fostered Kyra a 5 year old bully mix from November 2025 until April 2026. I took her in from a man I helped on a call at work. He had to have his leg amputated and had no family to take her at the time. 22 years as a police officer 17 years as a helicopter crew chief in the USAF I had a miniature pinscher who was diabetic and had cushings. I also have three dogs who currently need medications. I am able to administer medications. My dogs are all different energy levels and each dog has its own personality. I understand every dog is different 😁 I understand different work shifts and needs. Will offer military, police, and first responder discounts. I retired after 20 years of policing in NY. I am currently back working for another PD here in KY but I am in the process of going back to retired life. I spend a lot of time with my pups. My schedule will be part time for now but transition to full time pet sitter. I have a fenced in yard so plenty of space for play. I will care for your pet in your home according to your pets needs and instructions. Each pet is different and has their own personality so I will cater to those needs.
About: I have had pets my whole life, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and a hamster. I also worked at the Lexington Humane Society for over 4 years, as kennel technician and a full-time vet assistant where I cared for all of our animals and livestock. I have been a dog and kitten foster parent for over 3 years. I foster failed my 6th foster dog 🤭. I have experience with crate training, leash training, and basic obedience training, as well as training in emergency and senior animal care. I have a strong understanding of dog body language, experience with canine introductions, and have experience with medication administration. I have a passion for animals and would love to help care for yours! I am currently available most mornings, afternoons, and evenings as I am taking some time off of work before transitioning into human medicine. I am available for drop in visits or boarding in my home, both during the day and overnight. My own dog is crate trained, but spends his time free roaming in my bedroom while i’m away. I have a large crate available for use if needed. My dog loves other canine friends, so if you would like a companion for your pet, there is space for playtime in my home. Otherwise, I would be more than happy to travel to your home to spend some time with your fur babies! (Dogs will be kept separate if left unattended in my home). I do not have a yard, but have plenty of grassy areas and walking trails nearby for your furry friend to get some exercise!
About: I have always had at least one dog growing up. I started watching dogs (walking during the day or while babysitting) at 10 years old, and house-sitting by 15 (overnight at the dog's house). My childhood dog started receiving daily to twice-daily insulin injections by the time he turned 12, so I am comfortable giving injections. I also have had to give dogs pills orally. My current dog, Wesley, is particularly finnicky about treats, so if he has to take a pill I had to wrap it in wet food and hand feed to him - if your dog is the same way, I am used to "prince"/"princess" dogs :) I have watched my friends' dogs in Denver and it's been great! I am open to having them at my house (preferable for sitting during the week since I have work) or at your place. My job allows me to routinely work from home depending on my schedule and I am located in Littleton (near Chatfield and Ken Caryl areas). When I’m working from home I’ll be able to let the pup out throughout the day, as well as provide love and attention. If I am going into the office, I am usually away no longer than 9 hours. I’ll be sure to walk, play, or do whatever to make up for my time away! I’m pretty laid back with dogs and don’t get really upset if there’s an accident in the house, as I know they can’t help it. However, if there are certain words or commands you use for certain behaviors, please let me know so I can be consistent with your house. The same goes for walking - I usually am firm and keep the dogs on one side and close to me. If you have a certain side you like your dog to be on or words to use while walking, just let me know and I'll incorporate! I will attempt to make your dog's stay as home-like as possible by keeping their schedule, saying certain words/commands, and giving them lots of love and attention! I'm a very flexible and easy going sitter. If I am in town and you need someone last minute, I'm open to that. Have a question? Feel free to reach out and ask! I am currently taking a break in my career and just finished up my “adult gap year” traveling :) while I figure out what’s next, Rover is my main gig until further notice! I like to know what the typical schedule is for your pet so I can try and keep things as normal as possible in their routine. I also like to keep the pet parents updated with texts, especially pictures, to keep them comfortable and knowing their animals are getting love and attention.
“Mackenzie is absolutely the best! This is my second time booking with her (and Rover). She took care of Maverick during 4th of July weekend and she even took Maverick for the whole day without extra charge. She sent me pictures of Maverick during the day and he looked so happy. I would totally recommend booking her.”
About: I have always been passionate about helping and caring for people and animals. I have care experience with many breeds and types of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, rodents, reptiles, and horses. I adore dogs especially — their friendliness, loyalty, and energetic demeanor is contagious, and I love them so much for it! My dream is to rescue animals and help to find their forever homes. I will love and care for your pet(s) like my own. As for more about me, I am originally from Kentucky, and I studied music, specifically opera, all throughout college. I am a singer, actress, model, chef-in-the-making, fitness guru, social media influencer, artist, writer, and much more. I enjoy meeting new people and animals, and my greatest goal in life is to help as many others, human and animal, as I possibly can! I am able to check in as early at 9am, and as late as 9pm. I often have my children with me, and they either wait in the car or join us for walks in their stroller. I like to gather as much information from you as possible so that I can recreate your pet’s daily routine while you’re away! I enjoy giving animals the best, most comfortable and familiar experience as possible.
“We are so blessed to have found Maria to walk our dog, Aria. She's been walking Aria 3-4 times a week for a year now, and she loves Aria like she's her own. I could not speak more highly of her. We love, Maria!”
About: I have been around pets my whole life, but dogs are my favorite! I love them all, from puppies to the senior friends. I regularly care for my family dogs and I have experience caring for friends dogs and I have several regular clients. I have experience with puppy care and training, bathing, feeding, and administering medication. I also have experience with senior dog care nearing the end of life and all others in between. I have no trouble creating the special bond needed with most dog personalities. Dogs are truly our best friends! I play and exercise my own dogs daily. I understand the importance of keeping dogs engaged, healthy, and active. I do have a part-time job, but schedules are flexible given enough notice. I am so excited to care for your pup! I like to make sure the doggie is a happy, tired doggie when I do have to leave them. They love me and know fun is in store when I’m around. I play fetch and frisbee in the backyard and go on long walks around the neighborhood. If we can’t be outside I’ll play games with them indoors to challenge their minds and keep them occupied. Then of course there’s snuggle time together until they’re ready to nap or go to sleep in their crates or bed.
About: I’m a certified volunteer handler for service dogs in training at 4 Paws for Ability. Sitters and handlers are trained to train, care for, and accumulate soon to be service dog puppies. I also have have experience as an overnight pet sitter for dogs of all sizes and backgrounds. I am comfortable with any breed and do well with pets suffering from anxiety. I just moved to Lexington to start my PhD program at UK and am excited to get to know the area. A lot of my work and research is done outside of class so little time will be spent away from your pups! It’s totally normal for your pet to get the puppy blues without you there. Some things I do that has often helped ease this anxiety is being available for around the clock care, doing some soothing activities like mat licking, and lots of belly scratches!
About: I have been caring of a variety fur babies since I was a kid. I have experience with working with both younger and older fur babies. I am currently working full time while coming my masters online in counseling so I do have flexibility with working overnights. If need more availability please contact me. I have a fenced area at my apartment complex for dogs if needed. I have a variety of teats and toys for cats if needed.
About: Ever since I was a baby I have had a dog in my household. As soon as I could get a dog of my own I got Bentley, my German Shepherd/Coon Hound mix. I adopted him at only 6 weeks old back in 2020. Growing up neighbors would ask me to cat sit when they were on vacation which included changing litter, feeding, and playing with the cat daily. Additionally, I have been asked to help walk dogs and to house sit in the past! I live in the Hamburg area and work full time at the University of Kentucky. My traditional work hours are 8am-5pm M-F with an hour lunch break. I would be willing to carve out time in my lunch to walk or care for pets. I do not work weekends, and have the most availability to care for pets during that time! I am extremely trustworthy and will abide by any rules you have for your fur baby. I am experienced with crating, and have no concerns with helping to put your animal back in a crate after caring for it. My fur baby, Bentley, is also extremely dog friendly so if your animal needs socialization with another, I could provide that! Unfortunately, due to the nature of my living environment I cannot board myself as I live in an apartment.
About: I’ve taken care of family pets for the past 8 years; both dogs and cats. I now have two cats; Winston& Callie. I have done overnight visits as well as drop ins for neighbors and family friends pets. I’ve been working as a Animal Sitter/Dog walker since January. Im currently working full-time dog walking/animal sitting. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m taking a gap year and my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m always sure to treat your dogs as if they were my own, I have experience animal sitting and a passion for animals, and their safety is most important to me.
