Kylie was great with Scout and provided updates to ease my mind (as this was our first time leaving her at home with a sitter). We will be rebooking Kylie in the future.

About: I have taken care of my friends dogs and absolutely love taking care of animals. Enjoy having them around the house. I am very friendly and my dog Poppy gets along with others. I am currently working full-time through the school year. I have my summers off Starting in June. So will have more time in the summer and fall. Will have some in the winter. I have a fenced in yard for your dogs to run and play. I also can crate if needed as well. My back yard is big so plenty of room to run.

I could see the love that Kylie had for animals when we first met with her. She came by twice in advance of our trip to get the dogs, especially Miller, comfortable with her. The only thing that keeps me from giving her 5 stars is that except for the first day, I had to initiate any check-ins with her. Once I did that, she sent pictures, updates, etc. She did say her messages were not going through but I would expect, since she had my number, she would send text updates. I hope she gets that resolved, as I would book with her again.

About: I have experience with 8 week+ old puppies. I also have experience pit bulls and American bullies. Love playing with and walking dogs. Have experience walking multiple dogs at same time. I’m available mornings and most weekends for taking care of pets. Whether it’s walking dogs, just a quick check in or some high energy play time. I play with, take on walks, feed, and chill with both cats and dogs. I have experience giving dogs baths as well. I also have cut nails for both plenty of times.

About: Hello, I have grown up around animals my whole life. I was in 4h and FFA. I have experience with giving meds as I have had do to with my own cats and dog. I love animals and think they are the greatest thing we can have. ❤️ I believe they can understand us in their own way. I have a 1st shift full time job currently and looking into a part time job so my schedule may be a little random but I will do what I can! I make sure they have clean water and fresh food when it is that time. I give sufficient bathroom breaks for dogs and make sure other inside animals have a clean bathroom. I can give medication that is needed. And plenty of play time when needed.

About: I have had dogs and cats all of my life. I grew up in a household that taught us to respect and love our animals like they were our own children. I’ve trained every dog I’ve owned and have had much success. My husband and I rescued our own children. They both have special needs as they were both abused in previous homes. We love on them and are just trying to give them the "good life". They are: - Gus Gus "Goose" | an energetic and cuddly Boxane (Boxer & Great Dane) - Prof. Minerva McGonagall | a sassy tabby who loves to chill in your lap I love all of the fur babies and will give your pet(s) the attention and care they deserve for loving you so dearly:) Hi there! My husband and I recently moved to Galloway/Columbus from Seattle, WA, with our doggo and cat. I am extremely flexible as I am a full-time student (online). So, my schedule can be altered as needed to ensure it aligns with your pet's needs. I am a trustworthy and responsible individual with a history of repeat clients. It would be my pleasure to care for your animal loves in their home environment. I will treat your space and the space around your property with respect and care.

Kaitlin did a wonderful job with our dog. I was nervous as this is the first time we’ve used her and she exceeded our expectations! She helped work on his behavior issues and kept me updated on how he was doing. I will be definitely using her anytime we go out of town!

About: Please let me walk your dog! Anyone around me will tell you that I will look for their pets before I tour their home. Needless to say, I enjoy being around animals. I have cared for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors since 2012. My family first adopted dogs in 2018, and I adopted my first cat of my own in 2022. I have also adopted my own rodents in 2005 and 2017. I have raised, trained, and cared for dogs ranging from puppies to seniors, from toy-sized to giant (horse-sized). I have also cared for cats from kittens to adults, ranging from runts to Maine Coons. I am comfortable giving medications, providing close monitoring, and handling emergencies. I am able to provide the appropriate amount of care, energy, maintenance, and attention for your pet. I have gone through my own journey of improving and optimizing the way I care for animals over the years. Currently, I care for three adult cats: my cat Willow and my roommates’ cats, Juneau and Olympia. I also help care for two dogs at my family’s home—one senior and one young adult. I am a morning person who enjoys being outside, as well as staying cozy indoors and staying up late. I am an open book, so please feel free to ask me any questions. As long as you are willing to communicate openly, I am willing to work with you. :) I am a part-time student at OSU working on my B.S. in Forensic Biology and expect to graduate in May 2026! My Spring 2026 course schedule is currently from 9a–12p M–F, with some variations on certain weekdays. I work full-time at OSU Medical Center as a Med Lab Tech in the Central Processing Lab. My work schedule is from 1p–9:30p M–W and F (4 days/week), and one weekend per month from 7a–3:30p. I am on the fence about changing my work schedule to part-time, so my work schedule may change. I am pretty flexible with my schedule. Just ask, and we can always work something out. My policy is to give me a heads-up, and I also don’t mind considering same-day care—just ask about my availability! I care for any and all animals as if they were my own blood. I have experience with aggressive pets of my own in the past and encounters with aggressive animals. I worked as a lifeguard manager at my home city pool for 4–5 years, so I have extensive previous training in first aid and emergencies for humans. I am comfortable providing medications, close monitoring, and handling emergencies. I have had emergencies with pets of my own, so I know what steps are necessary and when help is needed. I have been able to care for animals with a variety of personalities, from extremely anxious or shy, to very outgoing and energetic. I deeply love and care for animals, and I want them to be able to enjoy their time apart from their owners as comfortably and happily as possible. I share a townhouse with my two friends currently; we each have our own cats. Their cats have not been around dogs before, so at this time I am unable to offer canine care services in my own home. I would have to provide feline care services in my own home on a case-by-case basis, so feel free to inquire!

About: My family and I always have a pet. I was growing up with a Chihuahua and Maltese, whom I learned how to walk, play, feed, and groom them. I’m working on part time, so I have plenty time to take care of your pets. I also have dogs and cats experience, and I am responsive and can send you pictures when you are away. I have an automatic cat feeder, cat toys, cat food (both dry and wet), an unoccupied room, and an open-minded heart! Please let me know if you need specific care, such as medical care or food.

About: Throughout my childhood, I have always loved and cared for animals with a serious passion, which is why I am a dog sitter. I have wonderful skills with caring for, training, and entertaining animals of all kinds! Animals, dogs especially, have always taken a very keen liking to me, and are generally very obedient with me, even when told to expect otherwise by the owners! I have owned and cared for very high maintenance and high needs dogs. I have years of experience with the fortunate puppys with no problems, and I have years of experience with dogs with special needs, examples being; blind, missing legs, mental conditions and dogs who have had health conditions of all kinds. I have no preference to what kind of dogs (or animals) I care for, and I maintain the utmost love, affection, training, and care for each and every animal I watch over. If you just need a puppy sitter for a day or if you need one for two weeks, let me know! Perhaps you just need a drop in visit once or twice a week to help keep your furry friend happy and obedient? Whatever your needs I am here for you 24/7/365 with full availability because I put the needs of the animals first! I work short hours locally in Glenwood and am always able to travel.

Working with Kaitey was a great experience. She took great care of our pup and reinforced our training with him while we were away, even doing his physical therapy exercises with him every day. She went above and beyond to take care of our house, water plants, etc. She is reliable and a good communicator and we would absolutely recommend working with her.
