House Sitting In Academia, OH

“Sophia was amazing - hands down the best, most attentive housesitter we've had! We have 3 dogs and a cat, including a senior dog with several conditions and lots of meds, and Sophia did a fabulous job keeping things normal for our critters for the week we were away. Everything was exactly as expected when we returned, including our senior dog who was in a great shape and looked the picture of health!”

“Oh my gosh I can't say enough about how kind and attentive David was with our animals! He sent many pictures and barely left their orbit for 3 days! He asked tons of questions and took notes and we felt so secure leaving them in his care. To be honest, I am not sure our pets were that excited to see us come home! Would definitely recommend!”

About: What sets me apart? I treat every pet like family. With years of hands-on experience, a calm home environment, and a deep love for animals, I focus on consistency, comfort, and clear communication. I maintain your pet’s routine, send regular updates, and ensure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. We also do late night walks and play time. It’s my full time job! I board dogs and do daycare at home and go to peoples houses for drop ins and we also do overnights! The dogs have their own room dedicated to them, safe from being able to get into anything. We also have cameras to be able to check on dogs at all times. In a clients home we maintain calmness with fun and spend ample time with them while owners are away.

About: From having an Irish Wolfhound and Blue Heeler on a farm with cats as well, I’ve grown up around pets my whole life. I currently have an indoor kitten, Mabel, and want to extend my expertise to you as well. I have experience pet sitting for friends often (pitbulls, golden doodles, Great Pyrenees, small dogs/toy dogs as well as American shorthair cats) and I am available full time to pet sit. I am free all day until I start my new job August 20th 8am-4pm. After that starts I am still free outside of those hours to offer my pet sitting services :) I can only pet sit at the clients home at this moment but I would try to extend the same treatment I would to my own home and pets to theirs. Cleanliness and safety is of utmost importance caring for pets along with exercise, play, and affection.

“Brittany is the best! This is the 2nd time I've used her when I travel abroad for over 2 weeks. All three of my dogs (all on multiple meds, 2 in diapers, 2 elderly, 1 special diet, 4x day need to go out) get all the care, attention, play and love they need. She communicates well without being intrusive, sends me pictures, and alerts me if anything is going on of concern with the house. It's difficult to put a price on the peace of mind I have when she is holding down the fort so I can enjoy my respite away. I will continue to use Brittany. I encourage you to book her for your next vacation.”

“Molly was great! She stayed at our house and watched our Great Dane. She kept us updated and sent photos. Our dog is high maintenance and she did a great job caring for her. I recommend Molly and will use her again.”

“Kathy has been absolutely wonderful to work with! I have two dogs, a senior Vizsla and young Boston Terrier. I hired Kathy to pet sit for three days, several hours each day. Kathy went above and beyond to make my pets feel comfortable! She engaged with them, sent pictures throughout the day and let me know how they were doing. She also had great communication prior to the booking. I will definitely hire Kathy again.”

About: I have taken care of Seniors, Baby-sat, and have pets. I’ve had several years in customer service and am a responsible college student that goes to a classical Christian college called Grove City College. Walking, cleaning, and feeding pets has been a part of my life for several years. I think what is more telling is my commitment to menial tasks everyday. I am a reliable, disciplined, and routinely individual. In my clients home, I will consistently play with their pets. I’ve had prior expirence taking care of pets and really love animals. I also feed them and walk them on a schedule.

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life and have helped care for and train them since I can remember. My family and I have helped foster 5 greyhounds and babysit for friends somewhat regularly. I have plenty of free time for babysitting pups! I'm available weekdays and weekends, any time of the day, just let me know at least a day ahead of time and I'll make sure to make time to take care of your pets! I have a large fenced in backyard for your dogs to play in as well as a very friendly australian shepard to keep your dogs company (however if need be I have enough room that they could be separated), we also have chickens and an outside cat that both stay mostly out front. I have multiple large kennels in case those are needed as well. There's a pool in our backyard, however I make sure to closely monitor any pets that aren't used to pools.

“Brianna stepped in as an emergency sitter for our dogs while we were on vacation. She didn’t hesitate to come to their rescue last minute. Our dogs (or us) never had the opportunity to meet her beforehand and we came home to happy dogs! I can’t express my gratitude enough and the fact she was able to give me the peace of mind that I needed.”

“Katy kept us up to date and sent plenty of pictures. When we got home, our dogs were ahbpy and well taken care if, and the house was spotless.”

About: I am responsible, respectful, and reliable. I have taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’m not going to let you down. I am semi retired and available most days. I do have some physical limitations, but we can address them as needed if that would be an issue. I can just let them out and check for food and water, I can take them for a walk, and I can work with special needs. The idea is that you feel comfortable knowing that you’re pet is safe and happy.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets—dogs, cats, and small animals. From daily walks and feedings to administering medications and providing comfort, I’ve built trust with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their routine, understand their behavior, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you always feel connected. I’m currently working part time so I will be available Saturdays from 12a-9p and Sunday 12a-9p. I also will take requests for other days, I can work with you! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible—feeding them on schedule, giving plenty of love and attention, keeping their space clean, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I respect their environment and follow any specific instructions closely. While I don’t currently have a dog in my own home, that allows me to give your pet my full attention without distractions. My dog currently passed so we have an electric fence but that’s it! If your pet stays with me, they’ll have a clean, calm, pet-friendly space with lots of one-on-one care, playtime, and love. I’m all about making them feel at home—whether it’s their place or mine.

About: I have taken care of all sort of animals my whole life. I know how to deal with their temperaments and stress. I’ve never lived without having dogs and I am always the type of person to take a dog in that I find from the street. I have dealt with strays so I don’t just have experience with well trained dogs. I have also watched over peoples dogs for a while and I started walking dogs since I was 9. My grandma had a community that she lived at and I loved dogs so much that I would walk them for free. My passion for dogs will never go away. I currently work front desk at a hotel. I work Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. I am able to walk dogs those days but only before 1 pm. Thursdays and Fridays I am totally free. And depending on the location, I can also do Saturdays. I currently have 2 dogs and they get walked once a day during the night. I also feed them a little differently than usual. I include green beens into their food as well as other healthy powdered ingredient so they are getting the right nutrition. I am fine with watching dogs at the clients home or mine. The only problem with my home is that I already have 2 dogs of my own. So the dog would have to get along with other medium sized mutts. When I have taken care of pets in another persons home, I like having a specific list so I know what’s best for the dog. I’m able to abide by any rules and I don’t mind if the dog needs extra care. I am up for it.

“My dog liked her right away. Everything was fine when I got home”

About: I have owned both dogs and cats and taken care of loved ones pets for over 20 years. All sizes and breed. I started pet sitting years ago and have enjoyed it since. I will make sure your fur baby is taken care of in their own home with the love and attention they are use to while you are away. I love to start with a meet and greet so we can all get to know each other. I look forward to meeting. I have a flexible schedule to ensure your special fur family member is taken care of at the times needed. This will give you peace of mind and your pet a check in. I will continue the routine your pet is use to in their environment. We will take our time to smell the roses on our walks and time together.

About: I am an active sitter that enjoys walks and wants your dog to be distracted while you are away! I grew up with cats and love them just as much. I work as a coach and have time throughout the day in the offseason to come over and walk your dog if needed. In the summer, we are off contract and have plenty of opportunities to help. I have a very needy Doberman so we take walks in the morning and evening every day. I also come home for lunch to make sure he can get outside.

“Caroline was so great with our dog. She has her own dog and they had a blast together. Lots of pictures and updates which is always appreciated! :)”

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life! We’ve had many different breeds of dogs growing up (Australian shepherds, a Jack Russell Terrier, Beagle, and mini poodle). I’m also the go to pet sitter when my friends and family go out of town and have watched Golden Doodles, an American Bully, and Yorkie’s. I have experience with different breeds, sizes, personalities, and ages! :) Currently, I work part time (3 days a week) so I have a ton of morning/afternoon availability to care for and play with your pups! :) I’m able to do a variety of tasks in order to help take care of your fur baby :) I am able to walk your fur babies during the day, as well as feed them, bathe them (if needed), play with them, and just check in on them. If there’s any service I didn’t list that you may need, just ask and I more than likely am able to do it :)

About: I have multiple years of experience taking care of friend and families pets (dogs, cats, livestock). I currently have a golden retriever puppy that I have trained. I currently work a full time job that I am available in the weekday evenings after 4:30pm and all day on the weekend (Saturday and Sundays) I am willing to go on long walks with your dogs. I care deeply for animals and will make sure they are safe and in good care while they are with me.
