“Kim took very good care of my sweet old cat and my grumpy young cat while I was away for a week. So great to come back home to happy kitties.”


“Brian did a great job with my cats!”


“Communicated with us daily regarding the health and activity of our aging pets. Engaged them in cuddles and play. Very sweet young lady and very responsible.”


“Allie helped me out last minute on a holiday weekend and I am so grateful! She was polite and professional and easy to communicate with. I would definitely have her let Bear out again in the future.”


“Katie was great with both pups! We were out it of town for a couple days and she was able to make multiple drop in visits to make sure the doggies were fed, watered, and had play time. She was easy to communicate with and very friendly. We would definitely recommend Katie and will be glad to have her help us again!”


About: I've taken care of my neighbors cat & dogs several times; two professor's dogs several times; a patient's (who became a friend) cat, dogs, & horses. My husband works full time from 6am-7pm. I am at home 95% of the time as we're expanding our family & are expecting our 1st bundle of joy November 2025. We're available most weekends. Our dog would love a playmate or two! I would prefer to board your pets at my house so they can have the best care possible as they will have my full attention!

About: I've had dogs ever since I was born and just love being around them. I've trained mine growing up and they've been great. My neighbors always ask me to watch theirs whenever they go on vacation. I'm currently working part time during the evening, but am totally available during the mornings Tuesday through Thursday. I would be so happy to watch your dog(s) while you're at work or for whatever you need! I create a safe, loving space tailored to each dog’s needs. I read canine cues, manage crates calmly, and maintain consistent routines—ensuring pets feel secure and owners feel confident.

“All went well as Kat & Lexi get to know each other….preparing for my out of town vacation in October.”


About: I love all dogs of all shapes and sizes and they always love me because I’m super attentive and loving! I also have 7 years of senior citizen care so I’m versatile to animals and humans! I work full time Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and every other Saturday, till 7pm if I go in later, but I can go in earlier to get off earlier, if need be. I spend a quarter of my day at church in Lexington. I love on them, play with them, make sure their water and food bowl is always full when obviously needed. I make sure they are taken outside as often as they need it.

“Thank you as always. My kitties just love her and it gives me peace of mind to know this. Sandra was supportive and accommodated a last minute request 2x because of a family issue.”


About: Observing and addressing subtle changes in a dog's behavior. Providing mentally stimulating activities like playtime, puzzle feeders, and appropriate socialization opportunities. Being flexible with scheduling and accommodating special requests. Promptly responding to inquiries, addressing concerns, and building a positive relationship with clients. Creating individual routines for each dog based on their dietary needs, exercise requirements. Regularly sending updates, photos, and videos to owners to keep them informed about their dog's well-being. I've done it all! Animals are a passion of mine! I'm a mama to 2 dogs and 1 cat! Their spoiled at their core! Let me spoil your pet too! I'm currently working part time. Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. But I can always put in for the days I need off for bookings. Always willing to work around. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to play and run. I have two pups to keep your pup company. I have a safety fence in my house as well if your needing your pet separated from mine. Your pets safety is my upmost concern! I will keep your pet active by playing outside with them.

“She was helpful and wonderful!”


About: I’ve taken care of all different dogs and work well with all different sizes. I own a Golden Retriever and have worked with Saint Bernards, Great Danes, and a lot more so I know how to handle very energetic and the lazy ones too haha. I have watched family and friends dogs and cats and have given them baths, taken them for walks, give them supplements (if needed), feed, play, brush. Anything you need! I love all animals and will take care of your furry family member! I just graduated from University of Kentucky and working part time at a local farm so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I currently I’m living in an apartment and have a dog that is also high energy and needs lots of walks. We have many trails, paths, and dog parks nearby that we always walk to.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience and genuine care for dogs at every stage of life. I’ve personally taken care of my own dog for over 10 years (before he moved in with my grandparents), which has given me extensive experience in both puppy care and senior dog support. I’ve also provided special care for young, energetic dogs as well as older pets who need a bit more patience and attention. On top of that, I’ve regularly helped friends and family with their pets, whether through dog sitting, walking, or assisting with specific care needs. I truly love building trust with every dog I meet and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. I’m in the process of saving up for law school, so I have the freedom to prioritize pet sitting and can easily adjust my availability to meet the needs of each pet and their owner. Whether it’s regular walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I love incorporating time with animals into my day—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always prioritize making sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I stick closely to the pet’s regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I also take extra steps to keep the home tidy and secure while I’m there. I make sure to give plenty of attention and updates to the owners, so they feel at ease while they’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a cozy, pet-friendly space with lots of room to play and relax. I make sure their routine is kept as consistent as possible and that they feel like part of the family while staying with me. Whether in my home or theirs, I always approach pet care with patience, responsibility, and genuine love for animals.


“Devon was great! came in ran, fed, and gave medication to the dogs as discussed - this involved a little more work because we feed a raw meat diet. She sent us pictures of her adventure with our two huskies. not once did she bat an eye about harnessing up and heading out with two Siberians. The pictures from her run showed clearly that the harness were on just so, and that she was clipped in to one of our hands free running belts. both dogs had perked up ears and I know that means they were happy :) We will book again.”

About: We have 3 kids who will be invested in caring for the dog. We have a goldendoodle who is 2 years old and he is thriving! Before our goldendoodle we owned a cockapoo (who sadly passed away in 2020) I have afternoons free and flexible hours. In our family we have 5 capable people who can help as well--especially in the afternoons and evenings. Our home is safe and clean and we have a dog park less half a mile from our home. We walk our dog twice a day and would include your pet in our daily outings.

“Cynthia did a great job taking care of our girls. She kept them engaged with play and they clearly had fun with her. We appreciate the time she spent with them!”


About: I have been around dogs my whole life and know just how special they are! I have experience with special needs, seniors and all the in between!

It would be an honor to care for your pup, as I’m always looking for a new 4-legged friend:) I have a part time position making me available most of the week.
