Kristin did a great job taking care of our two cats. We appreciated the updates and pictures that she sent at each drop-in. We would recommend her and will hire her again in the future.

Natalie has taken care of our dogs and cat for a few years now. She gives the pups lots of love and I think the cat likes her more than us! She is responsible and always communicates well as far as how the animals are doing when she is with them.

Susan has loved pets since she was a little girl. She volunteered for the Humane Society in Toledo for many summers and has since had her own dogs (2) as well as a cat. My husband and I have left our dog in her care on several occasions and she is loving, comfortable, and attentive when watching our pet. Susan has a natural ability to empathize and connect with animals and would make an excellent pet sitter.

Mia has been a friend of mine for almost 13 years, and she has taken care of my dogs and cats many times! I swear she’s an animal whisperer. Even my more skittish animals have loved her the moment she walked in. She would be a great addition to your company!

Confirmed availability: This weekend

About: I graduated in 2021 with an associates degree in animal assisted therapy-canine. The past two years I have spent working with horses. In the last four years I have studied under two vet technicians. I currently work 16 hours a week, so I have loads of time to spend with your fur babies. I will be available most weekends for boarding. I do not have a fenced yard. But I will happily take your pet out on leash. I have 3 friendly dogs that can keep your pets busy. I can crate dogs as needed, as well.

Our cat was well and as happy as he gets when his people returned from being away. Jacob did seem to forget some of the details of our instructions, such as refilling the second upstairs water dish. Still, our cat did not go without any essentials, and Jacob's photo updates were reassuring. Thank you, Jacob!

About: I've taken care of cats for extended periods and helped dogsit many times with my roommate back in Denver. We would split dogsitting duties and it was so much fun. I'm a grad student, so I'm in and out of my apartment every day. I'm flexible with my schedule and can always build in time to take care of animals. Every night, I'm home and ready to pet-sit. We have cozy furniture and an unfenced place out back to run around, plenty of space to crate, and close to the bike path for walks.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. Back at home I have volunteered at a spay and neuter clinic helping the dogs and cats in post surgery recovery. I also have been a caretaker on another dog platform called "Wag". This job includes dog walking, drop-ins, dog sitting and hosting. I have loved the experience with being a temporary dog caretaker and frequently fostering dogs from the athens county dog shelter. Last March I had the privilege to travel to Costa Rica and volunteer and dog shelters there providing care for their animals and facility. Overall, I'll appreciate any chance to be able to help an animal. Currently I am fully available for any day/time needed. i will be free the remainder of this summer up until i go back to school for fall semester at the end of August. I live in a house with 4 other roomates. Usually, theres only two or three of us at home at the same time. They also all love dogs too! We have a small unfenced yard in front of the house. The street we live on is far from campus so it is calm and quiet around our house. We have a lot of space on the first floor with space that is open and has hardwood floors.

Gillian will be a great asset to this program. She has spent her entire life around animals such as, dogs, cats, ferrets and hermit crabs. Gillian has always loved and been kind with any animal she has had ownership of or met through family and friends. While on a biking trip across the USA, she saved as many turtles as she could from being smashed by traffic on the roads. She is compassionate, kind, caring and loves animals.

About: I have had just about every pet under the sun from the time I was young: snakes, guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, parakeets, ducks, cats, dogs, goats, horses. Currently an 18 year old cat and 8 year old miniature pinscher call me mom. What I lack in certification I make up for in a willingness to learn and breadth of experience. I have a full time job, but work from home. I am free before 8am and after 4:30pm Sunday-Thursday, and free all day on Fridays and Saturdays. Lunchtime visits can be arranged if within reasonable distance. My goal in caring for a pet in your home is to make it as though I was never even there. Your dog will receive all the love and care outlined in your necessary instructions, and your home will look just as you left it!

Ness is a great drop-in cat care person! One of my cats adored her—she was his food source after all! The other cat, who is quite neurotic and hides when anyone comes in the house, usually goes on an hunger strike when I’m gone but actually ate his food and even meowed for her one time. Ness’ quiet energy made everyone happy.

About: I have had at least two dogs for as long as I can remember. I have also helped neighbors care for their pets while they were away. I have had all ages of dogs from puppies, to my 16-year-old golden retriever. I usually have taken care of larger dogs such as Labradors and golden retrievers, but I have been around all kinds of dogs. Because I am a full-time student, I can mostly do weekends or evenings during the week. I can drop by for bathroom breaks or to let a puppy get some play-time in. I am usually done with classes by 12:30 p.m. I am currently living in a dorm, so I am unable to house or board pets, but I will be able to provide my services at my client's home.
