About: I have had pets my entire life, always having one dog and two cats. I have raised a kitten that came from a rough background, another kitten with anxiety, a deaf Boxer, a Frenchton puppy and have raised my own kitten in my college dorm. I also volunteer with 4Paws For Ability to train service dogs! I would love to take care of your furry family <3 I am currently on summer vacation from Wright State University, so I am free any time you need me! I can do any type of visit you need me to! I can bathe, walk, play and give your animal basic care. I have my own puppy so walks are something that I take frequently with him and I love to play with the dogs. No parties or any other people will be in your home while you are away and I will send daily updates of your pet!
“Isabel is an amazing Rover!!! We hired her to house sit our anxious dog, Honey, for the first time while we took a 5 day vacation. Isabel was very flexible, stayed with us the evening prior to us leaving to get Honey acclimated and was extremely patient with Honey while we were away. They became BFFs after the second day and we were at ease on our vacation. Isabel is detail oriented, conscientious and took good care of both our home and Honey. We are hoping to book Isabel for our future vacations and day trips.”
“Elisa helped us and our furry fires through a though time while we were away and we will be forever thankful that someone with so much kindness in their heart was our pet/house sitter. Our eldest pet, Beau, was diagnosed with advanced stange heart failure and put on medication about 3 years ago. For any of you who knows about Vetmedin you know that it was amazing that he lasted as long as he did. While we were on vacation his kidneys gave out, a side effect of the medication. Elisa was there for him, helped us get him to the emergency vets and cared for him on his final night when we couldn't be there.”
“Erin watched my babies while I was on a weekend trip. I came home to 2 happy healthy pups. She sent plenty of photos and was great about updating me on how they were doing. I will be using her again!”
“Tyler was amazing! The pups didn’t seem to miss us at all. She was attentive and provided photos frequently without any prompt. Will definitely be using her again for our pups.”
“Monroe did an amazing job taking care of my dogs and was very flexible. I have a lot of anxiety leaving them and she did a good job checking in and letting me know how they were doing. Definitely would book with her again!”
“He was just so great with our dogs. I felt really insecure about leaving them for the first time since we moved cross country. Brandon gave me peace of mind and tons of pics with notes that let me know the dogs were perfectly content with their sitter. We’re already planning the next trip and have booked Brandon for a second time. If we ever need dog sitting, he’ll be our go to guy.”
“Emma helped out at the last minute when the original plan fell through and I needed someone before an important weekend out of town! She took great care of Finley and he was extremely happy!”
“Ben is literally the BEST!!! Blue loves his boy time with him when I got out of town. He gives me daily updates and pictures. I know Blue is safe with Ben and my heart couldnt be more happy!!”
“Christina took great care of our pets and our home! Even with freezing temps and 6 inches of snow on the ground, she made sure our high energy pup was exercised and entertained. She sent daily updates and always let us know what she had planned for the day. Our house was very tidy when we got home and the animals were very happy.”
About: Animals are my passion! Not only have I grown up around them and worked with them for 5+ years but they are a part of my chosen career field. I am currently a veterinary assistant at a local veterinary clinic and am enrolled in school in pursuit of a veterinary technology degree! I am a recent college graduate beginning her journey in exotic animal care! I have been taking care of animals, dogs especially, for my entire life and want nothing more than continuing to do so. I have 3 years of experience working in dog boarding facilities and another 3 years of experience in puppy care. Recently I re-enrolled in college to become a registered veterinary technician. Between work and home, I am around animals 24 hours a day most days. I can provide daily exercise, mental stimulation, and love to all and have no problem meeting the special needs of the dogs in my care. My attention will be on them, their happiness, and most of all their health during our time together.
