Wagging Tails Pet Sitting

Wagging Tails Pet Sitting offers cage-free, in-home dog boarding and daycare in Lexington, KY, plus dog walking and drop-in visits for pets who stay at home. Dogs board inside a sitter's house instead of a row of runs, with a large fully fenced yard for outdoor play. For owners who'd rather skip a commercial kennel, the setup sits closer to a house-sitting arrangement than a boarding facility.

Services

• Cage-free overnight boarding in a home setting
• Dog daycare with indoor and outdoor play
• Dog walks with a GPS route summary
• Drop-in visits, including visits for cats
• Grooming

What makes it different

Photo updates go out daily, so owners can see how the stay is going. Crates aren't the default here. They're available for puppies or for adult dogs who are already crate-trained at home. Dogs get outdoor time in the fenced yard and indoor play space when the weather turns. New dogs need a meet and greet before a first stay, which gives the sitter a chance to check that the dog fits well with the group. The business is a member of Pet Sitters Associates and carries insurance through them.

Practical details

Boarding is listed at $45 per night, with discounts for extended stays and for multiple pets. Booking is handled online. Posted hours run 7:30 to 9:30 a.m., Monday through Friday, so owners with questions should expect a reply within that window. Wagging Tails can be reached at 859-797-2500 or info@waggingtailslex.com, and the full rate sheet lives at waggingtailslex.com. The business also posts on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, which is a reasonable way to get a feel for the place before booking a meet and greet.
