First time hiring Erin to watch our cat while we were gone for a week and will definitely hire her again in the future! She was reliable, quick to respond to messages and showed up every day at the exact time we scheduled her daily visits.

About: Hi! I’m Olivia, and I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a fitness coach, I live an active lifestyle and love spending time outdoors, making me a great fit for pets who enjoy walks, playtime, and plenty of activity. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a senior companion, or somewhere in between, I provide personalized care based on their unique needs and routine. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same attention and compassion I would give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work part-time as an online fitness coach and as an administrative assistant for a local school, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule while providing reliable care for your pets. During the school year, I am primarily available Fridays through Sundays for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. In June and July, my schedule opens up significantly, allowing for much greater availability throughout the week. No matter the season, I am committed to being dependable, communicative, and ensuring your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. am attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and preferences, and I will follow any instructions you provide to ensure consistency and comfort. Whether we’re out on a walk, enjoying playtime, or simply spending time together at home, you can count on me to provide responsible, loving care and keep you updated along the way.

Process was super easy. Megan responded very quickly right from the start and throughout the stay. We worked out an arrangement I think we were both happy with. She is very friendly and has such an honest and reliable demeanor that I immediately felt comfortable leaving my pooches in her care. Megan sent pictures and little update messages with almost every visit so I could see that my pups were safe and happy. GREAT experience and I would definitely book with Megan again in the future.

About: I have always loved dogs! I have owned one almost my entire life. I have stayed overnight with friends dogs many times while they're out of town. I am active, so walking and playing will be no problem. My summer is very open, so I hope to be filling my time with your dogs and puppies! I have a few references, that I have house/pet sat for, if you would like to contact them. I love big dogs, medium dogs, small dogs, skinny dogs, fat dogs, all dogs! I had an Airedale Terrier who had ACL repairement surgery twice. This gave me experience with giving medications, rehabilitation & disabled dogs. Kellogg that you see was my foster dog, he’s living his best life with his new dad. If your dog loves to play, my parent’s dog, Arlo, is always down for some laps around the yard…If you're missing your dog, we will have a photo shoot and send you as many pictures as needed! Aside from loving dogs (which you unfortunately can't get a degree in) I have a bachelors degree from CMU & a masters degree from Wayne State University. I am a teacher, so love and patience are my middle names. My almost 8 year old son is also a dog lover and will be helping me give the best care possible. I hope you allow me to have fun with your pup! Message me to check availability! I am on summer break, meaning I have lots of extra time for my own pup as well as helping out with someone else’s pup! Always make sure to follow the plan left for me by the owner. Take extra precautions to make sure the pup is secure inside and outside of the home.

Hannah was an absolute Joy to work with! She was amazing at communicating via updates and photos of my lil guy and she made sure to stop in and meet my pet face to face before sitting. She is patient and caring and won't shy away from any accidents your pet my have. My cat loved her and I'm sure other animals will too!

About: I am singing up for this mostly to enjoy meeting new dogs! I don't have one of my own because I understand the responsibility. But, I love to help out where I can and I have means to. I understand the importance of stern but loving care, as well as proactive safety measures (always on the look out for unleashed dogs). I grew up with large dogs (and one toy poodle named bear) so I'm comfortable with any breed. I currently have one cat (his name is Cash money) he is a sweetheart, he is mostly inside with the exception of supervised outside time in my fenced in backyard. I work third shift with every other week being a "short week", meaning I'm free during the day time and every other week I only work 20hrs. This gives me a lot of free time! I only plan to take sitting/ caring jobs on my short weeks. I have a fenced in spacious back yard on a quiet street. In the backyard I have a dog house that I currently don't use, and will only be used as a space to be out of the sun. Outside time is supervised. My cat has free roam of my house and I will only accept boarding safe for my cat. I walk/run every morning and would love a buddy! Physical activity and Play are super important and I would like to help where I can.

About: I grew up on a farm and have always had pets. Cats, dogs and even a cow and chicken or two. I strongly believe our pets are family members just like our human family. I've had big and little dogs, and many different cats. My current little man is my best buddy he is spoiled and loved so much. He's 7 years old and loves other dogs to hang out with. He doesn't pay any attention to cats. I would love to care for your family member, giving you peace of mind that they will be well cared for and loved on while in my care. My availability is completely open, any day and time. I'm very flexible with dates and times, whether at your home or mine. Thank you for your time and I look forwars to hearing from you! I have a fenced in area for bathroom breaks and a large yard on a quiet country road to run and play in. I have space for a crate, I even have a very large one that can be used if necessary. Also have an almost two mile lane around our farm property to walk and run around. My home has plenty of space for exploring or just chilling out.

About: I've worked with animals off all kinds, ages, sizes, and requirements since I was 10. Everyone i know comes to me for pet help/care. I take a special intrest in training. I currently have a border collie mix who i practice sports such as agility and bikjoring. She also love trick training and obedience training. I was in a vet course in high school for two years so I've got plenty of experience with all sizes and species of animals. There i learn how to give oral medication, signs of parasites/disease, dog body language and the importance of mental & physical stimulation that sent me on my way to being a dog nerd. My job has me working weekends during the slow season and being an active person I need something to fill my off time. So I have Monday- Thursday to work with your schedule. I have worked with reactive animals as well as own one so im exceptional at dog body language and i focus on making a dogs walk/Visit as stress-free as possible. My experience with reactive dogs helps me stay patient and calm in stressful situations.

About: I have personally owned cats, dogs, horses, cows, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, and there are very few animals that I’m *not* comfortable with. I have raised bully breeds from bottles, and I have a ton of experience with large dogs as well as small. I’m not allergic to any animals- and I love snuggling and playing. I’m a super calm person and I think animals feed off of our energy. I work full time from home and have quite a bit of flexibility as I can do my job from anywhere with an internet connection. I have a fenced yard- but as I’ll be more likely to watch your animals in your home, I’m flexible. I’m an active person, and a true animal lover. We can customize what your pet needs from me. I’m a special needs mom, and I have a crazy amount of patience.

Erin did a great job taking care of Zorro. He wasn't even very mad at us leaving him for 4 days. Usually, we get an earful from him when we get back. So, Erin did fantastic keeping him happy and loved while we were gone. Will definitely book her again!
