Cat Sitting Bradner

“I trust my two fur friends with Madison 100%! Madison is trustworthy, professional, and honest, and kept me updated with details and pictures of the visits. One cat always comes out to get attention when Madison arrives. My elder cat hides from all visitors, Madison made sure to find her to “lay eyes on her” and made sure she had some snacks close so she didn’t feel left out. They both looked great and healthy after our 10 days gone. Thanks so much, Madison! — From Bonnie, Blondie and Mabel”

About: Hi! I'm currently a college student who's looking to have a decent side job while also dealing with missing her animals back home! I have eleven cats and four dogs back home, as well as three guinea pigs, a hermit crab and some exotic animals as well. My parents are the primary owners, but I am often the caretaker of all of our pets, especially when my parents are out of town! I have experience with senior dogs, young dogs, small, big, and medium sized dogs and dogs of varying temperament. I am used to the varying temperament of cats, too! Since we have exotic animals, I'm also used to a handful of different routines and dealing with different feeding preferences and rules. I have experience with watching some pets of my family members as well, so it's not just limited to my immediate family! I'm currently a student full time at BGSU, but my classes generally get done around 12:20PM on Mon/Wed/Fri, around 2:30PM on Tuesdays, and around 10:30AM on Thursdays! I'm more than willing to stop by after my classes to check up on your pets, and I'm generally up around 6:30AM so there's no issue in morning routines. In my home, things are ran a bit different since we have so many different animals. My main focus at home is usually keeping the dogs out for periods of time, watching them and playing with them if they're willing to play along! Whatever your usual routine is at home is what I'll be willing to adjust to, since the comfort of your pet is my priority!

“Amber was fantastic! She took great care of my 2 cats and gave them so much love while I was away. I highly recommend!”

About: I have been watching and caring for dogs for around 3 years now. I also know and love taking care of all types of cats. Along with animals I love to house sit I am currently a sophomore at BGSU and work part time at a local golf corse. I have a set schedule that’s is very easy to work around. I will always watch the dogs when they go out side and will sit with them for as long as they need. I will also make sure to feed them right when it needs to happen.

“Skyler was really nice. She gave my cats the attention they needed. Communicated well and sent pictures.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was a kid. I have tended to a total of six beloved family dogs from around age 7 to 19 when I moved. Some of my regular care for them included providing fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, going outside, playing, and brushing their coats. I have also administered some medication such as vet prescribed pills, sprays, or ear drops when needed. I helped to train them on basic commands and leash training. I am used to recognizing dog body language, following care instructions tailored to each pet, and sticking to a schedule. Since I am currently in-between jobs, my schedule is very flexible. I am most often available to provide pet care anytime on any day! I can also work for extended periods of time. Typically, my care for pets includes providing fresh food and water, playing, pets, and regular potty breaks. However, different pets have different needs and I am able to provide the care that suits your unique pet!

“Stacy did a wonderful job taking care of our cats during our vacation. We were able to enjoy our time away receiving messages, pictures of our kitties and getting updates from back home.”

About: I’ve grown up having 3 dogs my entire life, as well as cats. Since I was 16, I’ve been housesitting for my aunt for at least a week out of every year. Which requires taking care of 5 dogs, 3 cats, chickens, mice, sugar gliders, a parakeet, fish, and turtles. 2 of the dogs required medication multiple times a day so I have experience with that as well. I currently work every 3rd day, which leaves 5 days out of the week completely available to come by and walk your dog or stop in and feed animals. I have experience walking dogs on leashes as well as if I stop by and let them go potty I have no issue picking up after dogs as well. I will make sure they’re fed and safely put up if need be before leaving. I will also be sure to send plenty of pictures and updates!

About: I’ve been pet sitting for years! Being from a small town, lots of friends and neighbors have trusted me to look after their dogs and cats while away on vacations. On top of this, I currently work as a full time nanny, which has taught me so many things such as reliability and responsibility- characteristics that directly translate to pet care. I am available for pet care on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during the early mornings (before 10:00 a.m.) and again after 6:00 p.m. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am available after 3:00 p.m. I also have open availability all day on weekends, which allows me to provide flexible care for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and other pet care needs. For the most part I can be pretty flexible, so don’t hesitate to message me with specifics. When caring for a pet in a clients home, I feel it is most important to treat their home with respect and prioritize pet happiness!!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always been told I have a “way with animals.” I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs before. Whether it’s a tiny tea cup dog or a large lab with more energy that they can contain, I’ve seen it all. I’m currently a senior in high school and play club volleyball. I have a part time job but am looking to gain more experience before college. Being a pet sitter and walking fits great for me since it’s a flexible schedule. I already take care of my own dog and cat at home and would love to add more pets to that list. As an athlete I am able to match your pets energy. I’m able to run around with them and throw their toys for as long as they may need it. I’m always down to explore new places on walks in any weather.

“Kyra is fantastic. Henry loves her and she is very thorough and caring for Henry. Thanks, Kyra!”

About: I have always felt a drawn to all different animals. Especially dogs and cats. I love being around them. I feel that every dog I have ever encountered has been drawn to me, even if they were resistant at first. Unfortunately I do not have many pictures of myself with dogs so I do not have a lot on my profile! I have taken care of more dogs than cats although it doesn’t look like it! I will take care of your animal like it is my own. I’m currently working full time at a school! I work 9-3 everyday and I am home on Fridays. I would have more than enough time before or after work to be able to take care of your fur baby. I love going on walks and would love to be active while having a friend to be with me! I care for pets like they are my own. I will care for each pet in the ways that they need. Each pet is different and likes different things. I will accommodate to their wants/needs and do what feels best for them!

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life. I have taken care of and walked several dogs and cats of friend and family over my lifetime. I currently live with two cats as well as helping my friend with her puppy. As well as that I have experience with rabbits, pigs, chickens and other livestock. I am currently doing an internship at Ohio State University which will be about part time so I will have many house open throughout the day or night to take care of your pets. I live with two cats that have never hissed or been mean ever. I am currently introducing them to a friends puppy so they get more used to other animals being around. I also have plenty of space to separate animals if needed.

About: I currently have two dogs at home. One is a pitbull and the other is a corgi mix. I have taken care of dogs my entire life! Currently I only have a part time job that is only about 10 hours a week so I plenty of time to be with the animals! I love walking especially with a fur baby by my side to make the walk more enjoyable! I also enjoy being able to keep an animal company when need!

About: Hi! I'm Novalee (legal name Brooke), and if your dog loves having friends, being outside, playing until they're tired and then crashing on the couch at the end of the day, they'll probably fit right in here. I work from home, so your dog gets plenty of company, attention and time to play throughout the day. What a day here looks like: When the weather is nice, you'll usually find us outside. I often bring my work into the backyard while the dogs run, play fetch, chase their friends or stretch out in the shade. Our approximately 50' × 60' backyard is fully enclosed by a 5' fence with plenty of shade and room to run, and outdoor time is always supervised. On hotter days, we rotate between outdoor play and cooling down inside. Rainy days mean finding breaks in the weather to get outside, followed by muddy-paw cleanups, indoor play and couch time. By evening, it's usually dogs sprawled across the couch and dog beds, completely tuckered out while we all wind down together. Their routine comes with them: I want your dog's stay to feel as familiar as possible, so I follow their normal feeding schedule, medications, supplements, sleeping preferences and home routines. Owners provide their dog's regular food and treats so there are no unexpected diet changes during their stay. If they're used to a kennel, we'll continue that. If they're a couch sleeper, the couch is fair game. If they normally sleep near their people, their bed can go beside mine. Beds, blankets, toys and other comfort items from home are always encouraged. You'll get updates: I know how hard it can be to leave your animals behind, so I send photos and videos frequently. You'll get to see your dog playing with friends, hanging out with me, napping or completely crashed after a full day of fun. Safety & good fits: Every new boarding client starts with a meet & greet so we can make sure your dog is comfortable with my home, pets and environment before their first stay. Dogs are always supervised outside, meals are fed separately and supervised, and I have indoor and outdoor cameras, gates and separate spaces available when someone needs a break from the group. Because this is a social, multi-pet home, boarding dogs need to safely coexist with other dogs and cats. Shy dogs, seniors, puppies and high-energy dogs are all welcome as long as our home is a good fit for their individual needs. Well-behaved leash walkers can also enjoy walks around our village upon request. A little about me: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and pet care is now part of my everyday life too. I offer dog walking, pet sitting, daycare and boarding, along with having experience volunteering with rescues. I'm comfortable with everything from playful puppies and high-energy dogs to seniors who would rather spend the afternoon napping. I also have experience with fearful dogs, mild separation and storm anxiety, oral medications, supplements and insulin injections. Most importantly, I want your dog to feel like part of our household while they're here. We play hard during the day, slow down together at night and keep the routines that help them feel at home. I woke from home and have open availability and can spend all day and night with your pups. Send me a booking request to schedule a meet and greet. *I can kennel for the safety of your pets if needed during times I'm away from home on short trips. *I can carry over rules you have in place at your home to mine. Examples: Sleeping in kennel, not jumping on furniture, etc. *I'm vet trained in administering oral, topical, and vaccinations when needed. Example: Diabetic Insulin Shots. *If your pet has storm anxiety, we will camp out in the bathroom with soothing music until the storm passes. *I will not leave dogs unsupervised while playing outside, or with other pets.

“Thank you so much! My boys were happy and healthy when I got home.”

“Amelia was awesome. Very communicative and even my shyest came out for her eventually. She even moved some of my plants to a different room at my request because the cats were playing with them. Will definitely use her in the future next time I’m away!”

“Ashley was great with my two cats. Her Vet Assistant experience was invaluable in helping me administer their medication.”

About: Growing up, my family has never not had a dog. I come from a family of dog lovers! I have experience with Rottweilers to Chihuahuas. I’ve always had a passion for animals and volunteer my time as a board member of Montana Pittie Project. My dog is my child and I will treat yours like it’s my baby as well! I also have experience taking care of special needs dogs, my dog that passed the rainbow bridge in August of 2022 was special needs himself. I have fostered multiple dogs while working in rescue and have experience with many different dog personalities and needs. I love sending photo updates to keep your mind at ease while you’re away. Feel free to ask me any questions! I work full time as a self employed hairstylist. With a flexible schedule I am able to take a break every day and hang out with my dog during the week. In the evenings I take Stella to a park nearby my house or we go on a walk around the neighborhood. I do have a fenced in yard. My current pup is kennel trained and it’s her safe space, if I work for a longer period than usual I have my own pet nanny or family checks in on my dog if I will be gone for too long. She is never along for more than 4-5 hours at a time. She eats in the morning and in the evening, I do not free feed. Stella has way more toys than any dog could need, and likes watching tv so I leave a nature show on for her when I leave the house. She’s a good girl.
