About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both cats and dogs. I grew up around cats and have been a dog owner myself for the past 5 years, in addition to regularly caring for friends’ dogs. I work a 9–5 job from home, which means your pet gets plenty of company throughout the day rather than being left alone for hours. I’m also able to take dogs on an extended walk during my lunch break, so they can get some exercise, fresh air, and attention in the middle of the day. Whether your pet needs a long walk, some playtime, a cozy companion while you’re away, or just a little extra TLC, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and preferences. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for! My weekly routine is pretty consistent, which is great for dogs who love having a predictable schedule! Every workday I start each morning with a trip to the gym, then come home and take the pups on a nice, extended walk through the Metroparks near my house. Once we’re home, I settle into work for a few hours while the dogs get some downtime. I have a fenced-in yard, so I like to let them out regularly throughout the morning to stretch their legs, sniff around, and get some fresh air. Lunchtime means another extended walk! It’s a great way to break up the workday and give everyone a chance to burn off some energy. Afterward, my own dog usually settles in for a well-earned afternoon nap while I finish up work. Once the workday wraps up, we usually head outside for one more walk before settling in for the evening. If everyone’s feeling a little less energetic, we’ll skip the walk and have some backyard fun instead, such as fetch, tug-of-war, or just general goofing around. Basically, your pup can expect plenty of exercise, fresh air, playtime, and company throughout the day, with lots of opportunities to relax and recharge too. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to provide a comfortable, low-stress home environment where pups can feel like part of the family. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely get outside for fresh air and playtime, along with plenty of opportunities for walks and exercise throughout the day. Since I work from home, I’m also around to keep an eye on things and make sure everyone is doing well. For daycare and boarding, I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, crate time, and any other preferences or house rules you provide. I’ll also make sure dogs have time to relax and nap when they need a break from all the excitement. When introducing dogs to my home, I prioritize compatibility and a gradual introduction so everyone feels comfortable. I want every pup staying with me to feel safe, supervised, and genuinely at home, not like they’re being dropped off somewhere unfamiliar.
“Thanks Tina for taking such wonderful care of Gracie and Kya while we were away. You will be top of mind the next time we require a pet sitter. I can’t recommend your services enough. In fact, I think the cats enjoyed your company more than ours.”

“rebecca was amazing with my fur baby. he has separation anxiety and she helped and cared deeply for him while i was away for 4 days. if you have a shelter dog rebecca will be the perfect for you because she has a lot of patience and genuinely care for animals!”

“Jules went above and beyond in the care of our two cats. Jules was very responsive, timely, and flexible with her schedule despite the holiday weekend and did an excellent job. We will be using her for all of our future cat sitting needs.”

“Christina took great care of Squeeker. She genuinely cares and does her best to be sure her guests are comfortable. I feel at ease leaving my girl there, knowing she'll get attention, and be allowed to be herself.”

“Raegan was so easy to get in touch with and was able to help last min. Kept me up to date and sent lots of pics and videos. Much appreciated thank you for taking care of my boy ?”

About: I’ve taken care of cats for as long as I can remember. I’ve helped take care of two very special corgis as well as my roommates bunnies. I’m referred to as the buncle (bunny uncle) when they’re left in my care I usually work mornings but that could change depending on the week, leaving my afternoons free. I will work with you, I’m pretty flexible and work something out that fits your fur babies needs ❤️ My cats are indoor. I have an apartment, it’s a duplex, on the top floor. If your cats don’t like other cats? No problem, they won’t interact. I cater to your cats needs so that way they feel safe and happy.
“Courtney took great care of my puppy! She did a check-in with him during the day and took him out and played with him to get some energy out! It was super helpful while I was at work all day.”

About: Recently left my quality management role at Amazon and now pursuing a career in what feeds my spirit - animals. My pets have changed my life for the better, I believe everyone should have the ability to experience what I have! Since I was in kindergarten I have had a unique connection with animals, and starting this new chapter in my life is terrifying yet amazing. So if you decide to book with me or only will you be supporting local (so thank you), but you will feel completely at peace knowing your pet is not just another checkbox on my list…. But a new friend I am happy to have made. I exercise my pets everyday and ensure they are training consistently. I currently have a flexible schedule so we can work on your needs and scheduling. My home is puppy proof, along with a gate I use to separate the upstairs from downstairs so my cat can have some peace and quiet lol
“We booked Aliyah short notice to housesit and cat sit during a week-long trip. She was flexible with us even when our plans changed due to a canceled flight. She took her duties seriously, sending daily updates and photos. I was shocked to learn that our standoff-ish cat was laying in her lap and sleeping in the guest bed with her by the end of the week! It was a relief to know our house was safe and our animals had a friend to spend time with. And she went above and beyond, washing bed linens and cleaning the bathroom up behind herself. I would recommend Aliyah to anyone!”

About: I have loved and cared for multiple pets throughout the years- all with different purrsonalities, ages, and likes. I currently own 6 cats; but only two of my babies live with me the other four have been kidnapped by their grandparents. Most of my cats all love to cuddle and some of them even play fetch. When I have brought other pets home to watch and play with, my cats are always welcoming and I enjoy learning and experiencing every pets different personality. I currently work 3 12s as a nurse, but the other four days of my week I am usually home at least 8 hours during the day. I always get up two hours before work and I feed, play with, and cuddles me cats for at least an hour because they put me in a happy mood to start my day. When I get back from work I spend about an hour to two with them before I fall asleep. On my off days I am usually home and will spend time and play with my cats whenever they want to. It just depends on if they want to sleep, cuddle, or play. I have a two bedroom townhome with just myself and my two cats in. My cats are allowed anywhere throughout my home and are usually found either sleeping in my bed or on my couch basking in the sunlight and staring out the window. I feed my cats twice a day- once in the morning and at night. Sometimes they’ll get a snack mid day and they receive treats sometimes when they are extra cute. I also clean their litter box every morning so it smells good and they feel good about going to the bathroom in their box. If I go somewhere to care for another persons pet I will feed them based off the owners schedule and will clean their litter box as often as needed, usually once a day. I will also play with them and show them as much or little attention as they want.

Stephanie went above and beyond in caring for our cats. She checked in on them exactly as requested and always sent us photo updates, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. When we returned home, she had even left us a thoughtful little gift. We highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for someone who is not only wonderful with animals, but also kind, reliable, and personable.

Veronica has watched mittens a few times and I couldn’t recommend her enough! She is incredibly knowledgeable about cats and understands that every cat has their own personality, needs, and comfort level. She does a wonderful job making sure Mittens is happy and comfortable, and I always feel completely at ease knowing he’s in her care. It’s such a comfort to have someone I can genuinely rely on when I’m away. She is dependable and I know mittens is in very good hands!

My partner and I just returned from a long weekend, and it was the first time ever leaving our little 13.5 yr old girl with anyone but very close friends. Stephanie and Michelle not only put my mind at ease during the initial meet-n-greet; I received daily updates, with photos. I cannot stress enough the anxiety I felt leading up to the trip. I needn’t have worried. I will book Stephanie and Michelle every time. Highly recommend.

Tyler was fantastic and we wood definitely book with him again! We appreciated the chance to speak with him through a pre-visit and introduce him to our pets. He was very communicative with us, and took great care to spend quality time with our pets during each visit. His photos brought smiles to our faces and allowed us to relax, knowing that our pets were receiving excellent care.

Victoria was great! I did a meet and great with her before I left on vacation and she immediately put me at ease. She is very personable and professional when it comes to cat sitting. She sent me pictures and updates everyday she stopped by. I highly recommend her.
