About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, usually multiple at a time, all shapes and sizes. Your pup will receive top-tier, attentive care with your instructions followed to the letter. Beyond that, expect plenty of walks, play sessions, cuddles, and adventures. I genuinely love dogs and treat every pet like my own. As a student, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate almost any timing mornings, evenings, weekends, you name it. I work around your needs and will always make your pet my top priority. I have a friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends! When watching pets in your home, you can expect to come back to everything exactly as you left it, if not a little cleaner. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care.

“Britany is well liked, with my dog Kobe. He really looks forward to his walks. I really appreciate Britany's commitment to showing up on time, and making walks fun.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 15. I have helped family members, coworkers, neighbors, and other families by feeding, walking, playing with, etc. with their dogs, including both daytime visits and overnight stays. I also have experience with fostering dogs from a shelter for the day. I would love the opportunity to help you with your dog! I am a student right now and only taking four classes this semester so I have a pretty open schedule. I am available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in the mornings before 11 and anytime after 12:30/1; and Tuesdays and Thursdays before 9, 12:30-1:30, and after 3:30. My weekends are pretty much open for anytime. I have experience dealing with multiple types of dogs (different breads and sizes) and always listen to the owners request of how things should be done.

“Autumn was such a huge help while I was working. She made sure Koda went on good walks and spent the time to come meet us before we started walking! She is on time and great with animals”

About: I've had dogs ever since I was 10, but my experience with them goes far beyond that. When I was a little kid, before I ever had a dog, I would go to this read with a dog program called "Paws to Read." I would spend countless hours reading to the dogs and befriending them, along with a cat or two here and there. When I was 10, I got my first dog, a husky, and gave him a wonderful life. He had quite a few medical issues and behaved older for his age because of it, so I know how to provide senior pet care. He has since passed, but my two current dogs, one pitbull and one pitsky, remind me every day how important pets are to me. I've had them both for eight years now, during which we've taken numerous car rides, walks, enjoyed outside and inside playtime, movie nights, and anything a dog could dream of. Now, while I've never had a cat because of the majority of my family being allergic, I never turn away from a cat. I'm a regular at the Gem City Catfe, where I play with the cats often and have gone so often that they are comfortable with me. I keep cat and dog treats on me in case I come across a stray, because all cats and dogs deserve to feel some love. I've also dog-sat and house-sat for a few friends before, so I know how to handle situations like pets not getting along, bathroom accidents, and being a bit of a picky eater. Currently, I am a full time student and work full time at UDRI (UD's Research Institute) from 8:30am - 3:30am. During the summer I won't be taking any in person classes, just two online. But when I return to UD for my final year, I will be taking classes again and may be slightly more limited. When it comes to my pets and caring for clients pets, the comfort of the pet is most important to me. Personally, my two dogs don't get along with each other very well, so they typically have to be separated. Even so, I always make sure to treat them both equally and give them lots of love! If I take one for a car ride and ice cream, I bring ice cream back for the other and take the other for a car ride later that week. If my client has dogs similar to mine, who need to be separated, I would be sure to treat them equally and split my time with them according to my client's requests. Given single-pet households, I'd spend a lot of my time with them! In my downtime, I'd make sure to sit with them while I work on coursework. I'd be sure to take them on walks and go for potty breaks. And of course I'd make sure we get a lot of play time in and lots of love!

“Emma was amazing to work with! She was flexible and very responsive. It’s evident she cares about animals, and she was able to form a bond with our puppy quickly. I would recommend her services to anyone.”

About: I love dogs! I take them on walks, day trips, and I do week-long stays. I’ve cared for multiple dogs at once, including a variety of breeds and ages. I have a little special talent of teaching dogs new tricks! Growing up I have always been told I have a genuine bond for all dogs. Whether it’s a fun walk or a relaxing day, I ensure they’re happy and well cared for. As a college student at the University of Dayton, I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to care for your pets! I love spending time with animals and can easily fit pet care into my routine. I’m available throughout the week, with Tuesdays and Thursdays typically being my busiest days, but I’m still very flexible with my availability. Even if you’re working all day, I’m happy to stop by in the afternoon to take your pets on a walk or give them some extra attention! I’m also available for drop-in visits and house stays. I live right on the edge of campus in Oakwood, so I’m conveniently located and can easily work around your pet’s needs. Please feel free to reach out even if you’re unsure about your schedule! I’m typically really flexible and am happy to work with you to find something that works! When I care for a client’s pets in their home, I treat them with the same love and attention I would as if they were mine. I follow their daily routine closely, including their feeding, walks, play time, or just sitting with them so they feel safe and comforted. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I do my best to make them feel calm, happy, and loved. I also take care of the home with respect and keep everything clean and in order. I truly enjoy bonding with each pet and always keep the owners updated with cute photos and videos, so they know their pets are in good hands.

“we just met Brooke a few weeks ago - but already my Molly loves her! she has made it out for walks even through these snow storms - i am so grateful to find someone to help me with keeping Molly active since i can't do it anymore”

About: All my life I've been interested in animals. I grew up with a dog, a cat, and a snake, and my work in the field has involved all sorts of animal husbandry, from shearing sheep to catching alligators or banding songbirds. Sometimes I feel I understand animals better than people which helps me provide specialized one-on-one care to meets your beloved pet's needs. I want to ensure that they feel as safe, comfortable, and well-loved with me as they do with you! I'm currently taking some online classes, so my schedule is pretty flexible! Right now I have a lot of time Fridays-Mondays which I would love to spend taking care of some special pets. I don't have access to a fenced-in yard currently and would not be able to host a dog to the best of my ability. I've taken care of cats at my house, however, and have found that they quickly feel at ease in my home environment. My kitty passed away last year, unfortunately, but I am home often and will provide as much company and attention as your pet desires. I want them to know they have a friend in me.

About: I grew up with many family dogs in the span of 20 years. I am willing to learn how the owner wants their pets taken care of. I work full time. I am willing to work on my off days which are Saturday - Monday. I am open minded and willing to learn. I can provide care at the pets home. Provide me with a list of desired tasks and I will complete them. I want the owner and the pets satisfied.

“Yolena is very thorough and reliable! She always takes great care of my dog.”

About: I’ve grown up caring for multiple dogs throughout my life, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and everyday care. I treat every dog like family and prioritize their safety and happiness. I am currently home from college for the summer. I do not have other responsibilities, so caring for your pet is my top priority. I am free every day to be able to feed, walk, and play with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their everyday routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m providing walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll ensure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, meals, and any other care instructions you provide.

About: I have rescued animals and taken care of them my entire life:) I have unbreakably strong empathy for animals in need, and their owners! I’ve had experience with administering medication to my own rescues, and experience with elderly dog/kitty care. I devote my time and energy happily to every animal I meet, and no fur baby goes unnoticed or uncared for. As long as your pet is under my care, they will always be safe and loved! I’m working part time currently, so I have plenty of availability to take on fur babies! I’m available every weekday for anytime, and weekends after 3pm I have a fenced in back patio, and plenty of outdoor space for walks and potties! And I have two kitties of my own to keep any other puppies/kitties company. I have a two story townhouse where there is plenty of space

About: Hi! My name is Jordan, and I’m a student at Wright State University who absolutely loves animals! 🐾 I have two dogs of my own and spend a lot of time walking and caring for them. I also regularly walk my neighbors’ dogs, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I’m a caring, responsible, and patient person, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love while they’re in my care. Whether your dog needs a long walk, some playtime, or just a little extra company, I’d be happy to help! 🐶❤️ Since I’m new to the area after moving to Wright State, I’d also love to meet some new people and their furry friends around the community! I currently go to WSU, and after I do my schoolwork I have a lot of freetime. I usually spend my time in the library or going on walks. I will always make sure your pet is fed and happy. Comfort of an animal is my top priority, especially when there owner is away.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats at home. My family has always been heavily involved in animal rescue and rehabilitation. I typically work early in the morning and only a couple days per week, there is nearly always someone in my house, if you were to board with me. I typically work from approximately 4am-9am and spend the days with my toddler after I’m off. Your pet would spend the day either by playing in the yard, going on an adventure, or enjoying a relaxing day on the couch. I want your pets to have the most relaxed experience possible while they’re away from home. My yard is completely fenced in and my two dogs, (a 35lb beagle mix and a 50 lb shepherd mix) love other dogs and will be happy to keep your pup company. We also have plenty of space if your pup would prefer some quiet time.
