About Katie

11 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
**About me**
I'm a lover of all creatures great and small! I have been providing in-home pet sitting services for 11 years. I have also worked or volunteered in the pet service industry (veterinary hospital, boarding facility, and animal rescue organizations) for over 15 years.

I have one fur baby (aka tabby cat) named Charles Thomas Barnabas, but he goes by Charlie. I currently work at Metro United Way.

**About my home/services**
I offer in-home pet sitting (at the owner's home). I currently live with roommates, and would not be able to keep other people's pets in my home. I work weekdays (9:00 am-5:00 pm), and have nights and weekends off. On rare occasions, I have work events in the evenings (2-3/year).

My pet sitting services include feeding & watering, play time, walking, bathing (for an additional $20 charge), and staying overnight in the home. I also offer small household services for no additional charge (retrieving mail, taking garbage cans to curb, etc.) I will also water plants starting at an additional $5/day.

**About my neighborhood**
Although I'll be staying in other people's homes, I currently live in Middletown with access to a lot of sidewalks and parks. I live down the street from the center of Middletown and Wetherby Park. I also live close to The Parklands, which has numerous walking trails, open space, and a dog park. I also live near the walking trail in Anchorage, which also has a dog park.

**What to expect**
Since I will be staying in other people's homes, I tend to follow the schedule that owners have already set up for their dogs. I enjoy taking dogs for walks in the park, going to dog parks, or spending time playing outside. Of course, lots of cuddling is always in order. My cat Charlie is my fur baby, and I treat other people's fur babies like my own. :)

**Special rules or requests**
I do not have any special preferences. I always do a meet and greet with every pet family to make sure that I am a good fit as a pet sitter. A meet and greet helps me personalize my pet sitting services for each individual situation.

About Madeline

10 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
My husband and I have just moved to Louisville and I am currently only working part-time. While I'm on the job market, I'd love to offer my services as a dog walker and in-home sitter. Unfortunately, due to my husband's allergies being unpredictable, we can't accept dogs in our home for boarding or daycare. If you would like for my dog and I to come spend the day in your home for daycare, we are absolutely open to that, just send me a message. I have had dogs in my family since before I can remember and have been taking care of them since I was capable. My dog Georgie is a snugglebug and will be a great playmate for your pup.

About Jamie

20 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Responsible & Energetic Dog Sitter

I have always grown up with a dog in the house. I have been petsitting and working with dogs for years. We do have a 2 year old dog in the house who loves interacting with other dogs and meeting new friends. My house is located in the Schnitzelburg near Eastern Parkway. I live near many dog parks that we take the dogs to as much as possible, weather depending. I am willing, if wanted to take the dogs to the dog park and also at least one walk a day. Our backyard is fenced in to allow dogs to go out and enjoy the sunshine at any time. I have a job that I work out of my home for, so am home to let your pet out as many times as needed and give it all the attention it needs. I would love to have the opportunity to board and take care of your precious dogs while you enjoy a trip away. I do only watch one pet family at a time, so you can be assured I can give them the attention they deserve!

Marissa was great! My dogs loved her and she was very extremely responsive. Marissa came over the day before I left to meet the dogs and go through logistics which I really liked.

About Valerie

I have had a lot of experience with dogs. Both of my daughters own dogs and when visiting, I spend a lot of time with them. I would like to walk dogs and will also visit them in your home.
My main interest is in taking care of cats. I love cats have always owned cats. I have taken care of neighbors cats while they were away, have fed and socialized ferrel and abandoned cats, and worked in shelters with cats. I have been around all kinds of cats, kittens, young, old, friendly and not-so-friendly. I can come to your home and spend time with your cat(s), feed, clean litter, and play with, while you are away.
I know that most cats enjoy being played with and a good brushing or petting, but some do take a while to "warm-up" to you. I never push myself on any cat, but wait for them to come to me, with a little encouragement.

About Melanie

5 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hi, my name is Josie and I'm a Wire Fox Terrier and I love having doggy sleepovers. If your Mom and Dad are leaving for a weekend or week, my home is really big and has a large fenced in yard. If you come to visit, here's how I see our days going. First, we can go frolicking and rolling around in the fresh grass. We can then play with my toys, I love sharing. After, my Mom and Dad give the BEST belly rubs!! If the day is nice, my Dad takes me to see my friends at the dog park, don't worry I'll introduce you to all of them. But my favorite thing to do is SLEEP! My Mom and Dad said I can have as many sleepovers as I want. So if you want to be my friend, just hit up my Mom, Melanie. She has many years experience dog sitting and she loves every dog she sees.

Hope to see you soon!

Licks & Cuddles,

~Josie~

About Megan

10 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I have two fur babies in my family and have had experience with dogs my whole life. I grew up on a farm around many different animals but also herding pups so I'm very comfortable around all animals and I know many different training cues and commands. I've been pet sitting on occasion for the past five years and more often walking neighborhood dogs. Animals, specially dogs, bring so much joy into my life. I've always groomed my dogs myself including nail care, hair trimming and oral hygiene. I've also had quite a bit of different types of training with my pups.. It is so important to ensure your pups needs are always exceeded. I strive to ensure all pups are healthy and happy!

About Mike

10 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
**About me**
I work very flexible hours as a land surveyor so I can be super attentive to your four legged friends. I grew up and have always been an animal lover ever since I can remember. Fur babies gravitate towards me, as I seem to have a special way with them. Perhaps they can sense my gentle and loving demeanor and I have a deep respect and admiration for all animals alike.

**About my home/services**
I have a welcoming, comfortable, and spacious condo. I can care for your dog in several ways. Feeding, walking, playing, and relaxing just to name a few.

**About my neighborhood**
My complex is very pet friendly. Considerate neighbors, peaceful surroundings, and desired commodities make it an extremely nice environment for a fun and serene stay.

**What to expect**
Long walks and runs throughout the common areas and beautiful lakeside. A tennis court for exercise and play too. Endless options for boundless activities!

**Special rules or requests**
I have no special needs or preferences. I just ask that your animals are up for a fun day because having a good time and pampering your pets is my top priority.

About Mahalia

10 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
**About me**
Hi, my name is Mahalia. I live in the Foggy Bottom area attending the George Washington University as a freshman. My entire life I've been responsible for taking care of animals of all sorts, including dogs/pups, cats/kittens, horses, and goats. I love animals of all kinds:)

**About my home/services**
I am not available for in-home petting-sitting because I live in a large college dorm, but I am available for pretty much anything else. I can come pet-sit at your home, check-in on pets in your home, dog-walk, bathe, etc

**About my neighborhood**
If you know Foggy Bottom, it is located near the heart of downtown DC while also staying a very pet-friendly area. Tons of good dog-walking opportunities

**What to expect**
I'm up for anything! Cuddles, runs (I love going on runs with my dogs at home), walks, playing in the park or at home, and pretty much anything else you can think of

**Special rules or requests**
I don't have any special needs or preferences. I only ask you let me know if your pet has special needs or preferences, so I can accommodate for he/she in the best way

About Brittany

12 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
My name is Brittany. I would be honored to petsit your dog for you while you are away. I have extensive knowledge in caring for animals. I graduated college at the top of my class with a degree in Animal Science from Texas A&M; University, a huge Agricultural school with a top tier Animal Science program. I myself own one dog, one cat and 2 horses so I am comfortable with all different kinds and sizes of animals. One thing that sets me apart is that all of my own personal dogs have been rescues, so I know how to work with your timid and nervous dogs. I also have experience administering medicine if this is something that you need. My schedule is extremely flexible and I can stop by at any time and come as many times a day as you are comfortable with. My ultimate goal is to make sure that the animal has a positive experience while you are away. This means that I spend lots of time walking, playing and loving on the animal to ensure that they get the interaction they need to stay calm and happy. I can also provide you with a list of references if this is something that you desire as well. Also, if you would really like to utilize myself and my services, but don't see an option listed that perfectly fits your exact needs, contact me! I will happily work with you to come up with set price and schedule that fits you and your pets needs directly! I recognize that each family and situation is different, so I don't feel it is fair to try to fit everyone in one certain box. If you believe I may be a good fit for your family, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you!

**ATTENTION**: For customers going out of town looking for my "house sitting services":: Are you willing to entertain the idea of having your pets stay in your home alone during the night? If so, it means extremely discounted prices for you and your animals! ESPECIALLY if you have more than one animal that needs care. How does it work? I stop by every 3-4 hours each day; the first time in the morning between 5:00-6:00am and the last time between 9:00-10:00pm at night. You will get ALL the same services and benefits as my regular house sitting clients; just at a discounted price since your animals will be left alone in your home from 10:00pm to 5:00am. Does this sound like something that may interest you? Send me a direct message to inquire about this fantastic price!
