House Sitting Antioch

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. Over the years I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, from furry friends to reptiles, so I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I treat every animal like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, cuddle, or just needs someone patient and reliable to care for them, I’m happy to provide the attention they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll always care for them with the same love and dedication I’d give my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing pets! When you book with me, you can expect dependable, loving care for your pets while you’re away. I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals—from furry friends to reptiles and even slithering companions—so I understand that every pet has unique needs and deserves personalized attention. Because I have my own wonderful crew of animals at home, I’m unable to offer overnight stays or boarding in my home. However, I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, and attentive care to make sure your pets stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment. I’ll treat your pets like family, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your beloved companion is a big decision, and I’ll care for your pets with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own animals. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, administering basic care, or providing plenty of playtime and affection, I’ll make sure your pet receives attentive, individualized care. Communication is important to me, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos during each visit, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress experience where your pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for until you return home.

“Joshua was fantastic! He communicated with me prior to the stay and he continued throughout his time with Charlie. Highly recommend.”

About: I work as an assistant at a vet clinic, meaning I know how to handle medically and behaviorally demanding animals. I’ve been pet sitting for many years, from puppies to large dogs and many species, even once a squirrel. Pet care fits into my schedule around my work at the clinic. I have a lunch break during which I can drop in and let out dogs for a midday potty break, or if they can’t go longer than 4-6 hours alone, I can bring them with me to work. I have a lot of experience with animals because I work at a clinic. I believe each pet has individual needs specific to them and that they should deserve care tailored to them. My time at the clinic means I know what to look out for in the case of medical emergencies and allows me easy access to a medical provider for your pet.

“Ashly was great and the babies love her! She followed instructions well and asked questions as needed. Was also great about making sure everything was tidy when we got back home!”

“Kaelin was wonderful with our 3 special needs cats. She sent me updates every day, bonded with our skittish girl, and left the house in good order! We will absolutely be keeping her in mind for future trips!”

Mia P.

“Toni did an excellent job house sitting and caring for our dogs! She communicated wonderfully throughout her stay and was attentive to their needs. She made sure they got plenty of walks, attention, and quality time, and it was clear that the dogs absolutely loved having her around. She also went above and beyond in caring for our home. She stripped the guest bed and put the sheets and towels in the washer, washed the dishes, and kept everything clean. Toni was wonderful to work with, and we truly appreciated the care she gave to both our dogs and our home. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be working with her again in the future!”

Perry C.

“She was amazing! Great communication and followed instructions perfectly. Definitely would book with her again anytime!”

“Michael did an excellent job watching my dog Charlie while I was on a business trip. He catered to my dog's needs and stayed on his medication schedule and routine, which is everything. I definitely will be using Michael as a repeat sitter again and again. He's a great guy and loves animals and it show.”

Anthony M.

“Karson was great! She kept me updated the whole time and sent lots of pictures, which made me feel so much better being away from my dogs. Everything was taken care of when I got home, and she even took the trash out before she left, which was so thoughtful. I’d definitely book with her again!”

Amber R.

“Brittany was great with Atlas. He's a high energy anxious German Shepard and she made sure he spent a ton of time playing and helped him relax. It was the first time Brittany watched Atlas and will definitely be asking for her help again when I'm out of town”

Nicholas F.

“Anna took care of our two dogs for the first time. One of the dogs requires medication and Anna did a great job caring for him! She took excellent care of both dogs, was very attentive to their needs, and gave us frequent updates and pictures, which we appreciated. We can’t wait to have Anna take care of our fur babies again!”

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals since I could remember. Been around Great Danes to yorkies and love them all. I also have a cat and dog of my own both I’ve rescue and adore. I’ve also trained my dog, I’ve had her since she was 7 months old. I train with positive attitude and treats. I was relied on by family and friends to watch, walk and feed their pets. Occasionally would do some basic training to help keep up and of course cuddles. My pets are friendly with other animals, my dog gets excited when she gets to meet new friends and then goes about her business. I also have a crate for my dog if anything. I try to give the visiting pup a chance to sniff around first and get warmed up before I let my dog meet her. Allows both dogs to calm down and be relax by then.

“Sahara was outstanding. She met with us earlier in the week to go over everything. The dogs loved her and the house was tidy when we returned. We plan to hire her again!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is one of the happiest parts of my day. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pet-not just to feed them or let them outside, but to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet is an energetic adventure buddy, a professional napper, or a shy cat who prefers quiet company, I’ll meet them where they are. Every animal has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes them happiest. One thing you can count on from me is communication. I’ll keep you updated with messages and plenty of photos, so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Friends, neighbors, and repeat clients trust me because I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every home with respect. I follow routines carefully, pay attention to the little details, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I can’t wait to meet your furry fam! 🐕🦮🐩🐕‍🦺 Caring for pets has become one of my favorite parts of my week. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable care throughout the day, and I genuinely enjoy getting outside for walks or spending quiet time with cats. I treat every pet as if they were my own and pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. I love to keep pets on their normal schedule as much as possible, following your instructions carefully and making sure they are safe, comfortable, and happy.

About: Hi! I am a Licensed Profession Clinical Counselor and work for a non-profit agency working with foster care kids. I have a MA degree in Psychology and have been told I have a "calming" affect on pets and people. References of course available both professional and personal. I myself use Rover for my pets and I feel more comfortable with adults vs. younger workers in my home while I am away. That is why I joined to bless other families that want an older adult in their home. I work during the day but can set my own schedule and I live in the Grandview Heights area. I am flexible with dates and times so please reach out with questions. I offer boarding in my condo for one pet and house sitting as well. I will be able to stay overnight but will be need to leave for a few hours everyday for my work. I will be home every evening and not need to leave until or 1pm or 2pm everyday. Flexible schedule . I make my own schedule and will work around the needs of your pets. I can drop by for visits as well I do offer care in my home but will stay in your home and be clean and tidy and send as many videos and pictures as you request.

About: I have a strong passion for animals especially dogs. I have an extreme level of patience with animals and feel that they deserve to be spoiled with love and attention. I lost my best friend/my heart February 17, 2022 Jaylo, my female boxer mix. My girl was 14 years 7 months 1 week old. Jaylo fought diabetes the last 3 years of her life which required a strict healthy diet and routine including insulin shots 2x a daily and additional medication unrelated to her diabetes. Overtime Jaylo did lose her eye sight and was blind for the last 3 years of her life also. I feel strongly to protect and nurture each animal. They give us priceless amount of love, attention, company and loyalty. I will be sure to treat your animal like it is mine - gentle, friendly, loving and fun. I can't wait to meet your pet! :-) I work full-time from my residence day time hours currently M-F. My schedule is expected to change in the coming months (I will be sure to update) however, currently I am available for dog walking in the evenings after 6:15pm. I am available for dog sitting Friday and Saturday evenings also available after 6:15pm. I reside in a 2BR 1BA apartment. My unit sits along side a large patch of grass that I spent hours each day walking my female boxer I lost 02/17/22. I live on the bottom floor where the concrete slab runs right into the grass area on the opposite side of the parking lot which is alot safer and easily available to bring your animal in/out for potty breaks and to stretch his/her legs on frequent walks. Animals are family and welcome to get on furniture. I will provide prompt updates on your pet also :-)
