Dog Walking Westport

About: I would be willing to watch your dog in my home that I share with my wife, Mellisa and sons Nate, 13 and Nolan, 11 and our 9 year old cat, Mango. We have owned pups for most of our lives We live on an acre in a dog friendly neighborhood in La Grange. If you would like to discuss the possibility of you hosting your dog with our family... send me a message. Mellisa currently works from home and I have a very flexible schedule as well. Therefore, we will be able to tend to the needs of your fur baby. I have two children who love animals and will be right there playing and walking with your pet. We also have a crate available if needed.

About: I have owned dogs since I was little. Now I have my very own dog and hopefully will have another in a few years. I have watched my friend's dogs before and helped care for sick dogs. I have a very fun and young Lab named Pheona. She’s a good first dog to call my own but I have learned so much from her. It also made my love for dogs stronger. I do not mind coming in and checking on dogs or cats. I also love going on walks with dogs and definitely would love to take dogs for a walk. I can also help keep up training or help out with training. I am comfortable around pretty much all sizes of dogs. I myself have a larger-sized dog but I have lived with a variety of sizes of dogs. I’m a very friendly individual so don’t be afraid to reach out to communicate with me.

“We can not say enough good about Lindsey's care for our dogs while we were away. Loved the daily updates and pictures! We will be calling Lindsey for dog training in the near future. Thank you!!”

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: What sets me apart is my dependability and communication. I'll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while providing regular updates so you can enjoy your time away without worry. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I'm able to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention while making sure your pet stays comfortable, happy, and cared for while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'll carefully follow all instructions, maintain their normal routine, and ensure they always have fresh water, food, and a clean environment. I'll keep doors and gates secure, provide plenty of attention, and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: Hello! I am a senior at the University of Kentucky. I have grown up around animals my entire life, and I would love the opportunity to take care of your pets! I am currently working part time, and my schedule is flexible. I have the most availability in the evenings, and I am willing to accommodate your schedule. I love to play with animals, and I will be sure to take good care of your pets! I am willing to provide any services needed to ensure that you are comfortable.

About: As a graduate student and lifelong animal lover, I bring both reliability and genuine care to every pet I work with. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, and I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and pets with unique personalities. I have my own 8-year-old chow-shepherd mix, so daily long walks, patience, and attentive care are already a huge part of my routine. I also have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of slower pacing, medication routines, mobility awareness, and extra comfort and patience. Whether your pet loves active walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply calm companionship, I tailor my care to their individual needs and personality. I’m dependable, observant, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I already spend a lot of time walking and caring for my own dog every day. I currently have full availability on Wednesdays and weekends (Saturday and Sunday), and I’m also available for evening walks and drop-ins on weekdays between 7–9 PM. I genuinely enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, and giving animals attention and care, so incorporating pet care into my weekly schedule is something I truly look forward to. I adapt my care to each pet’s individual routine and needs to help them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether that means long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, giving medicine, potty breaks, check-ins, cuddle time, or simply providing calm companionship, I’m happy to do it all. I know how important consistency is for pets, so I always aim to follow the owner’s instructions closely while giving every animal plenty of attention, patience, and care.

About: What truly sets me apart is the level of hands-on experience I have with dogs who need extra care. My wife and I have had rescue dogs for over 20 years, and almost every one of them has come to us with medical or emotional challenges. Our first boy developed seizures right after we adopted him, and we gave him medication twice a day for his entire 14-year life. We’ve also cared for dogs with cancer, managed daily medications, and even administered at-home IV treatment when one of our girls needed it. Right now, one of our dogs is going through cancer treatment, and we handle multiple medications, special routines, and close monitoring. Because of this, I’m extremely comfortable giving meds, following detailed care plans, watching for changes in behavior, and providing calm, patient support for senior or medically fragile dogs. In our home, dogs aren’t “pets”—they’re our kids. I bring that same level of love, attention, and respect into every home I care for. Your dog will be treated with the same care, patience, and compassion I give my own. After selling my business, I finally have the freedom to spend my days doing something I genuinely love—being there for dogs who need real attention, not just a quick stop-in. If your pet is older, recovering, dealing with health issues, or simply happier with someone calm and consistent around, I provide steady, patient care right in their home. With an open, flexible schedule, I can stay with your dog as much as needed—perfect for pets that need regular meds, mobility help, special meals, or just someone who won’t rush them. I’m comfortable handling messes, encouraging slow or selective eaters, and adjusting to whatever routine your dog is used to. Light play, companionship, and several relaxed walks (when appropriate) are always included. I take your trust seriously—both with your pet and with your home. I know it’s a big deal to let someone into your personal space, and I handle that responsibility with real respect. I don’t go through anything that isn’t mine, and I keep your home exactly the way you left it. I’m also happy to help with the small things while you’re away—bringing in packages, watering plants, keeping things neat, and making your place look lived-in for added peace of mind. My approach is simple: calm, dependable, and focused. I’m not rushing in and out or checking the clock. My attention stays on your dog and what they need, not on squeezing the visit into a tight schedule.

About: My husband and I have had dogs our entire life both big and small. We currently have a medium dog who is a dream to walk, and a large dog who walks us but we love both just the same! We would love to host your fur baby at our house or drop in just to give them some love! We have 2 kids who have been raised around animals. Our normal attire is dog hair so we’re not afraid of some shedding. We haven’t been able to stretch our legs out in our bed in 10 years because no matter how comfy our dogs bed is they always end up on ours so we don’t mind if they are on our furniture or bed!

About: I've had dogs, cats, and rabbits but have also cared for guinea pigs, turtles and fish. Caring for your pet the way you do is most important. I am available most days and times. My open availability leaves you with piece of mind knowing there's someone that can help any time of the day. I have a big yard and will be spending lots of time outside. Really big on taking hikes, and playing ball. Staying hydrated will also be priority.non smoker.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was about 10 years old, I’ve been trusted with families as well as family, friends, and family to watch dogs. Ever since I was born, I’ve grown up with a yellow lab, and a Labradoodle, who I currently have still I’ve cared for dogs, my whole life, and understand the importance of finding someone who is reliable and trustworthy to watch your dog. I am a sophomore at the University of Kentucky and home for the summer. I have a Summer job that I work three times a week but I do not work all day, so watching your dog would be a simple task. I understand the importance of making sure your dog is safe and with someone who is trusted, which is why I will ensure to send pictures and give my full attention to your dog whether it’s helping with medicine, which I have to do with my current dog understanding its behaviors.

About: I have pet sat for family and friends for 2 years now. I have watched everything from dogs and cats to pigs and lizards! I am able to give medications if need be. I am currently working during the day for 8 hours. I usually stop home and will return around 9 each day. On the weekends I tend to be home more. I always make sure the animals are too priority while I’m in your home. Whether it when I wake up, come back or before I go to sleep I make sure all their need are taken care of.

About: I’ve cared for my bulldog at home for many years now and make frequent visits to my grandmothers house to help her take care of her beagles. I have always had a passion to make animals specifically dogs time on earth the best it can be. I know they are incredibly misunderstood and no matter the animal, I have always found a way to get along with the fur baby. On days I don’t work, it would be amazing to get the opportunity to do this as to me it’s not considered a job Make them feel comfortable and let them know that you are there for them. Have patience as each animal is different and requires a unique but understanding approach.

About: I have nearly 10 years of hands on childcare experience and have cared for pets alongside families for years, so safety, structure, and attentiveness are second nature to me. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and ability to read behavior cues quickly. I am experienced with puppies and young pets who need structure and consistency, as well as senior pets who require a gentler pace, medication reminders, and extra monitoring. Special skills include: • Puppy basics and reinforcement of training routines • Crate training support • Maintaining structured feeding and potty schedules • Senior pet support and comfort care • Administering oral medications • High energy breed management • Detailed updates with photos and communication you can rely on I treat every pet like they are my own while respecting your household rules and routines. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while you are away. Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I work as a nanny, which gives me a structured but flexible schedule. During the school year, I often have breaks in the day while the child is at school or activities, which allows me time for drop in visits, walks, and check ins. I do not work late evenings, and my weekends are typically open, which gives me consistent availability for overnight stays and extended care. Because I’m already in a caregiving role professionally, being attentive, reliable, and routine oriented is built into my day to day life. Caring for animals complements my schedule well and allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I currently provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can remain in the environment where they feel most comfortable and secure. I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible by following feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, and household rules exactly as outlined. I am extremely respectful of your home and treat it with the same care I would my own. Cleanliness, security, and clear communication are very important to me. You can expect reliable updates, photos, and prompt responses while you’re away. My goal is to create a calm, low stress experience so your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for in their familiar space.

About: I've personally had dogs for over 20+ years. My pack has been as small as 1, but as large as 5. I've been active in rescue groups and truly feel like dogs are the answer for any sadness. I've recently lost my soul dog after a 2 year struggle with cancer. My heart isn't ready for another dog, so I am hoping I can still get my cuddles in and help people out in the meantime. I've become a pro at giving medicine, so if you need a midday dose giver, Im your gal! I'm a realtor, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can make most days or evenings work. Whatever your pup needs, I can make it happen! I follow orders, so I won't put your dog into a situation they aren't familiar with. I totally get all animals are different and respect how people work with their own.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 8 years old! Friends, family & neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their pets while they are working or away on vacation! I have recently trained my two puppies, and prior to that trained my sisters dog for several years. I also have experience administering medication to both cats and dogs! I currently work full time in a peds ER from mid afternoon to late evening. I’m available for early morning drop ins, mid day check ins and night time checks. I am a trusting individual who will follow your same routine you have with your pet to ensure they are happy and safe while you are out of town!

“We consider her family now. You can tell how much she adores the dogs she takes care of, she's taking care of two of mine. Current dog that she takes care of when I have to go out of town adores her. She house sits for me while I'm gone, and is very respectful of my home.”
