#1 & Most Important Question: Why do I love animals so much?

Because Sunnie taught me valuable lessons about how unconditional love, unwavering trust & a little sincere compassion can change all living creatures for the better!

This is my beloved very first Petfinder rescue dog Sunnie! Sunnie's best friends were a Samoyed named Lobo, a Shih Tzu named Ellee, and a little one-eyed guard dog named Jake. We made up her pack and kept her safe! She was so much fun even with all her little afflictions: she was a breeder dog and kept in a very small kennel for much of her early life. Once I got her, all of our lives changed forever. Adopting a dog with issues can be one of the most rewarding experiences. It takes patience, love, and understanding, but the bond that forms is unbreakable. Having a once-troubled dog by your side for over 20 years brings countless joys, from seeing her grow more confident each day to cherishing the quiet moments of trust. Animals, like humans, like reliable humans -and Sunnie knew she could count on me. I took her trust as a badge of honor and cared for her like it was my pleasure, because it was! She may have started with a difficult past, but together, we created a lifetime of love and memories that show just how resilient and precious she is.

I carry her spirit with me everyday - she taught me gratitude at its most beautiful level! 🐾

  • What if I get home from vacation at 9pm and want to pick up my dog because we've missed them?

  • How many days in advance do I need to book (or cancel services)?

    I am a small business and stay busy, the sooner you make your reservation, the more likely you are to have a guranteed spot for your pet. Please let me know right away if you decide not to use my service as there is always a wait list and some other dog's dream is about to come true!

  • What if I need to cancel last minute or realize I'm going to be late picking up?

    Please let me know right away. I am flexible. If there is a pattern of booking, canceling or showing up late, then we will part ways.☮ Reciprocral respect for each other's time is required for us to continue a working relationship. I promise to not cancel on you and I do my best to be flexible for my clients.

  • How do you determine your prices?

    The market and valuing the expert level of attention and snuggling your pets will get. This is top level care! Once we talk and determine your needs, you are quoted a competitive and fair price that takes into consideration your pet's needs and package deals. Call me!

  • How long have you been pet sitting & can I trust you?

    I first became an animal lover around the age of 4 when I would bring home stray dumpster kittens from the church parking lot... I've been professionally pet sitting for over a four decades in four different states and for every size and temperment of dog and cat. I have my pet sitting PhD (pet/human dynamic >^.^<).


    I'm proud to be a verified pet sitter on Rover.com, where trust and safety come first. I've completed a thorough background check and have earned 5-star reviews (and on Google) from happy pet parents who trust me with their beloved dogs and cats.  If you've ever wondered what it looks like when someone shows up, keeps their word, and takes care of what matters — you're looking at her.

  • Can I just pay you to walk my dog on a weekly basis?

    Absolutely. I even have a great neighborhood to walk if you are rural or not in a place where dogs can enjoy their time outside in the sun or cold. If it's not stormin' ⛈️ we are walking -and loving it!

  • Can I drop off my pet if you aren't home?

    My preference is that I'm there to receive your pet but I understand things come up and we are all busy. I have a secluded dog run area separate from my fenced yard where you can put your dog and they will be safe until I get home. Call me to discuss your needs and we can work out pick-up / drop-off to your convenience. I always encourage owners to come check out my puppy palace so they know their babies are safe. Once you see it, you may change your vacation plans and come stay for the human version of K-Care :)

  • Do you take care of other pets than doggies?

    YES! I love kittens and cats too. I'm also open to hamsters or birds... you name it and I can care for it, feed it, give it shelter, and most importanly love & attention while you're away ... all the things living creatures need love and care to thrive. Paducah's best pet sitter does not discriminate. We've even been known to love and care for some realy ugly dogs (but we thought they were beautiful.)

  • What other services do you offer?

    I offer Paducah Pet Sitting, Dog Walking, Cat Care, House Sitting, Plant Maintenance, Homemade Dog Treats, Graphic Design and Website Design.
