About: I have taken care of several cats during my life, starting from my mother's womb. Currently, I have two cats of my own, a Devon Rex and an American Shorthair, who have very different grooming and care needs. I understand that cats require consent and patience when interacting with them, and I am more than willing to ensure both are present. I have a good amount of experience in the administration of medication (including oral and ophthalmic solutions). I also understand the importance of a clean litter box and playing with the cat on their level and in a way that makes them happy.

About: Hey everyone! My name is Gracie😊 I have 7 years professional experience caring for dogs/cats as a vet tech. I also have experience in basic obedience training. My personal experience largely outweighs my professional as I’ve never had any less then 4 pets of my own throughout my life.

About: I've taken care of cats growing up ever since I was little. I had my own cat named Rosey who was my absolute love until she unfortunately passed when I was 19 :( . Since then, I've had many other kittens/cats I've grown up around with family and still help take care of. I also had a problem with rescuing any animals on our farm we could find or who showed up, so they would naturally become part of the family as well😊.
About: I have been practicing the fine art of cat whispering since 2018. Currently, I live with two adorable kitties. My love for felines borders on magical—I speak fluent "meow," chat with every single neighborhood cat I meet on the street, and keep a secret emergency stash of dream-treats in my car just in case a furry friend appears! ** Cats are creatures of habit and magic. I match your exact daily routine down to the minute so your cat feels like nothing changed. ** I specialize in extended stays! I provide consistent, loving companionship so your kitty never feels lonely while you explore the world. ** If your cat needs daily medications or supplements, I administer them with zero stress and maximum patience. From energetic kitten zoomies to senior cats who just want to nap in a sunbeam, I read feline body language instantly and always respect their boundaries.Every visit includes meticulously scooped litter boxes, fresh food/water potions, and a magical photoshoot of your kitty sent directly to your phone. 🔮 Whether you need me for a quick daily drop in, a weekend or a month, your familiar is safe in my hands!
About: As a cat parent, I know how important your babies are. My cats are eight (and still babies, of course!). I've sat for cats of all ages, sizes, and breeds. It can be scary when their usual beloved human servant isn't around, and I know how to connect with them in ways they can understand and appreciate to make those times feel more like home.
“Jamal is a neighbor, right across the street. He's a great guy, and did well letting my dog, Shuri, out into the yard on a tether. But, he somehow got the alarm triggered by not following my instructions, and the alarm company called me while I was in a conference doing videography in front of about 60 people. All in all, he did what I needed for the dog visit.”
“Lonie took great care of my three cats, even the feral one and the black one who hid under the bed the whole time. Its not a small house and she traversed all floors,sometimes without knowing where to turn on the lights. She took out the garbage, visited twice everyday, and was willing to put my grocery delivery in the fridge. All without a single complaint. She's amazing and she will be my everytime pet sitter!”
“I recently used Brooke to keep my cat, Lupin! She was incredibly attentive and sent me multiple updates throughout the stay. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! She went above and beyond and I genuinely feel like she treated my cat as her own!”
“Ava was so great with my cat! She was super communicative and I can tell she really cares about taking care of animals:) My cat had a great time and I'm super grateful for her flexibility & dedication. Thank you Ava!”
“Haley is our go-to pet sitter, and she always does an amazing job! This time was no exception she came by to check on our cat, and as always, she was kind, professional, and communicative. She has checked in on our kitty once before now, and we trust her completely to take great care of our fur baby. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care!”

About: Hi, I’m Carrie! 🐾 Animals have always been at the heart of my life. For over 2 years I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. That hands-on experience taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of treating every pet like family. Currently, I’m home full-time caring for my sweet senior dog, Sophia (15 years old, living with Cushing’s Disease). Making sure she is comfortable and loved has given me an even deeper appreciation for the trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. Because I’m at home, I can dedicate all the time and attention your dog deserves. Here’s what you can expect when your pet stays with me: Lots of love & attention – every pet is treated like my own family. No crating (unless required by you or for very brief times when I must step out). Safe, comfortable environment tailored to your pet’s needs. Experience with senior and special-needs dogs who may require extra patience and care. Regular updates & photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, snuggles on the couch, or simply a calm and caring presence, I’m here to provide the same quality of care I give my own beloved Sophia. Your pup’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. ❤️ I'm currently out of work to care for my senior girl, Sophia, that has had some complications with Cushing's Disease. Your pet will be under my full-time loving care at my home, or in your home. I offer both services. Your pet will only be crated when I need to step out momentarily. In my home, pets are part of the family! 🐾 I have a fully fenced one-acre yard where they can safely run and play, and when the weather’s nice, we’ll spend lots of time outside together. Indoors, your pup will be right by my side, whether that’s hanging out in the kitchen watching me cook or relaxing nearby. I don’t crate unless you request it or for brief times when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to their routine and give them plenty of attention, exercise, and love so they feel safe and comfortable until you’re back.

About: I have 5 dogs that are my kids. I am a stay at home dog mom. Your dog will be my dog while in my care. 4 are small and 1 medium sized. They are all fixed, UTD on shots and heart worm. All adopted from different states and shelters. They are between the ages of 10 and 12, and 1 senior who we believe is about 16. They are only crated at night if I go out for an extended period of time, except Charlie, the old man, he is out 24/7. We live on a half acre, fully fenced back yard (5 ft aluminum with puppy pickets). They can get on the furniture if they want and I have dog beds throughout the house. My dogs typically get on very well with other dogs. I dog sit 2 dogs in my home a few times a year for a few days to a week at a time. 1 medium and 1 large. I have fostered various dogs for Big Fluffy Dog Rescue in the past and I have helped and run adoption events at Petco for about a year for Simpson County Animal Shelter/Friends of the Shelter in Franklin KY. I am a stay at home dog mom. I can pet sit any time of the day or week, for just a few hours, a day or overnights. I only leave the house to go to the store or run a few errands. Typically not out for extended periods. If I am dog sitting, I prefer to be at home as often as possible. I am always around my dogs. I have dog beds in all areas of the house. I keep an eye on them when they go outside. I play with them regularly. When I get a new foster dog, I usually will keep them leashed for a little while until they get acclimated and used to the other dogs. You, my customer are more than welcome to come into my house and yard and meet myself, and my dogs.
About: I have always had pets growing up, and my love for them has grown even more in my adulthood. I have bred dogs, so I am well rehearsed with all ages of dogs, from pups to elder.

I dog sit/dog walk on my off days and weekends. I enjoy morning walks the best, but I am free throughout Wednesday and Fridays I will respect your space as if it were my own. I have been dog sitting for many years and have never had a trust or safety issue. I’m very dependable and trustworthy.
About: I absolutely LOVE animals. I have had dogs most of my life, and became a cat mom over 10 years ago. They are more than just pets - they’re family! I will treat your loved fur one like my own. I have experience giving dogs oral medications and giving cats both oral medications and injections (insulin). I work a hybrid schedule so my days are super flexible! I can be flexible with timing as long as I have sufficient notice. I am happy to accommodate your needs to the best of my ability. I want to assimilate your fur baby’s routine to the best of my ability! I will follow your instructions with any specific guidelines or requests. I am not afraid to ask clarifying questions.
About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals!

I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.

About: Dogs have been part of our lives since childhood, and now we're lucky enough to share our home with three well-trained pups who absolutely love having furry friends visit. We've been through it all—raising energetic puppies, caring for senior dogs with special needs, and everything in between. As a stay-at-home mom and work-from-home dad, we're here all day, every day. Your dog will never be left alone and will get the same love and attention our own dogs receive. Our daily routine includes hour-long walks and plenty of playtime in our fenced backyard, where dogs can run, explore, and socialize safely. We only accept one additional dog at a time to ensure every guest gets personalized attention and fits well with our pack. Our three dogs are friendly, well-socialized, and love making new friends, so your pup will have built-in playmates if they're interested—or plenty of quiet companionship if they prefer a calmer pace. We know how hard it is to leave your dog with someone else. We'll treat your pet like family, keep you updated with photos and messages, and follow their routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and loved while you're away. As dog lovers, our pets aren't just part of our schedule—they are our schedule! Since we're both home full-time, your dog will be integrated into our everyday life just like our own. Our dogs get a solid hour-long walk every day around lunchtime, and your pup will join right in. When the weather's nice, we're constantly heading out to the backyard for play sessions, potty breaks, and supervised exploration throughout the day. Because we work from home, there's always someone available for attention, belly rubs, or just hanging out on the couch. Dogs have free access to our main living areas and are never isolated or crated unless that's your specific request. Meal times, medication schedules, and any special routines you have at home—we'll stick to them. Your dog will simply become the fourth member of our pack while they're here, getting the same care, exercise, and love our three receive every single day. Your dog's safety is our top priority. Our home features a securely fenced backyard that's regularly inspected, and we never leave dogs unsupervised outdoors. Inside, our space is dog-proofed and comfortable, with plenty of room for everyone to have their own space when needed. We're experienced in reading dog body language and managing group dynamics. Before any visit, we do a meet-and-greet to ensure compatibility with our pack. We only take one guest at a time so we can carefully monitor interactions and make sure every dog feels safe and happy. We know trust is everything when it comes to your pet. We'll keep you updated throughout your dog's stay with photos and messages, and we're always available if you need to reach us. All dogs in our care are treated with the same watchful eye and gentle care we give our own—because we understand they're not just pets, they're family. Our calm, loving home environment means less stress for your dog and peace of mind for you.

About: I currently work full time but from the comfort of my own home.
