Jacob has watched my senior dog multiple times. He is very kind and quick to respond. He is always sends good pic so I know my old man is getting well cared for. Will always try to rebook him for my dog

Kristen was amazing, as she has been every time I book her. I was nervous for a long trip and she gave my kitties extra cuddles and took lots of pictures. She communicated in detail and remembered preferences from prior visits to be able to figure things out even when I couldn't answer immediately, being out of the country. She kept me informed about a delay in my food order and was willing to go out to get more if it didn't get delivered in time, which I was so grateful. She also left everything super clean (ie washing food bowls). Will continue to hire her any time I need a sitter and she's available.

About: Hi! Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From high-energy puppies to slow-paced seniors, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities — each one with their own quirks and needs. Whether your pup needs daily walks, playtime in the yard, belly rubs, medication, or a consistent routine while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. I’m confident, calm, and attentive — and I always treat pets like they’re my own. I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog behind, so I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, an overnight stay, or a week of care, I’m here to keep tails wagging and hearts happy. Let’s make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and at home — even when you’re not. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to your pets — whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Because I’m not tied to a full-time job, I’m able to adjust my availability based on each pet’s needs. I make sure to build my day around their routines, so they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for — just like they would with you. Whether it’s one-on-one playtime, regular feeding schedules, or keeping up with medications, I take the time to make sure everything runs smoothly. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment that feels familiar and comforting. In your home: I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding and walk times to their favorite spots to nap. I keep everything clean, secure, and consistent, so your pet feels relaxed while you’re away. I’m happy to water plants, bring in mail, and keep you updated with regular photos and messages. In my home: I offer a pet-safe, cozy space where your dog (or cat, depending on needs) will get one-on-one attention and feel like part of the family. I maintain a clean environment with plenty of play, rest, and cuddle time. If your pet has special needs or routines, I’m happy to accommodate them — from crate training to medication schedules. No matter where the care happens, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, affection, and full attention to their emotional and physical well-being.

Stefania took great care of our cat and dog while we were away. Our dog is usually very shy, but by day 3, she was playing and wanting belly rubs, which Stefania took the time to give her. I'd highly recommend her.

Amanda did a fantastic job keeping me updated and caring for my pet cat. My cat required multiple drop-in visits per day, and had some complicated instructions, but Amanda handled it perfectly. I was updated with photos and messages with how time was spent with my pet, and would reccomend Amanda too any pet parent going out of town for an extended amount of time.

About: I have taken care of many different pets for as long as I can remember! My love for caring for animals started when I was 12 years old and taking care of my own five ferrets. It wasn't long after that when both of my parents had started bragging about my consistency and dedication when it came to taking care of pets to my family and their friends. From that point on I have gotten calls from my aunts, uncles, and family friends to care for their furry friends while away on vacations and business trips. This has made me confident enough to want to help other families take care of their animals when needed too! :) I currently go to college at Ohio University and would only be available to work on my school breaks starting every August-May. However, my schedule over the summer is pretty open and I would love to spend as much time needed with your fur babies! With any instructions given I am sure to not skip one step! I will give your pet all the attention and cuddles necessary. Due to me having a dog who doesn't get along with new dogs, I would care for your pet(s) in the comfort of their own home. I am also willing to stay overnight if needed when I am available to do so.

Hailey did a great job taking care of our cats and loving on them while we were out of town! She also did a good job giving my elderly cat her insulin injections. Would recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

About: I've had pets basically my whole life. I grew up with inside and outside dogs, as well as a farm cat that I took care of regularly. I've been through obedience training with both of my dogs now, and we walk and play every day! I work from 8:00~2:00 weekdays. I take my own dogs on walks every day. I have plenty of time to take care of your pets if you're ever in need of assistance! I have two inside dogs at my house. When I bought the house, I had a fence put in and extended the yard so they can be outside and play safely, whenever they want. We go on long and short walks daily. Animals deserve the same care and respect that people do, and I treat my animals, and any other I know, like friends! Treat them right and they'll be great!

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs of all breeds. I love all animals and giving care to them. I can provide baths, feedings and walks along with play time! I will provide quality care for your fur baby! :) I only work part time and hope to fill my free time with taking care of animals because I enjoy it very much! I am free early mornings and evenings. I absolutely adore getting to know my client’s dogs/cats! I make sure to give all animals love and attention while in my care. Additionally, I ensure that I am prepared and study up on any specific needs that your fur baby may require. Not all dogs and cats are the same and their unique personalities are what make them so wonderful!

About: I grew up with pets and have never lived without them. I pet sat when I was younger and have since done it occasionally for friends and family. I just moved to the Athens area and am looking for some supplemental work. I am available for house sitting as well. I take work seriously and am very hard working and detailed oriented. I live in Athens from the end of October through the start of May. I am available throughout the week and weekends. I am not a student here anymore so classes and partying do not take up any of my time. I have 2 indoor cats and a bearded dragon. One of our cats requires some special attention with medicine and over grooming monitoring. Whatever needs your pets have I will work hard to meet them! As far as house sitting goes I am also readily available. If your house needs anything fixed or done I have a number of skills to help you out! I do renovations and all kinds of work on the house I am living in so as part of the house sitting deal I can make something like that work.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs/cats of every kind ever since I was about 8 years old. I also grew up on a farm near cows/horses/chickens. I have a very big heart for animals and it is very rewarding to me working with animals and gaining their trust and their owners trust! I’m currently doing freelance work on the side, so I have a lot of availability! I can do every day as long as I have a notice! I have a cat and a dog. They are both on schedules to eat. For my dog, I take her out 3 times a day and give her crate time about 5 hours a day.

About: I understand that your furry friends are more than pets, they're family. I can’t remember a time in my life when I did not have a pet in my home. Most of my fondest memories have my dogs in them. I have been around dogs of all breed and ages, I love everything from small puppies to large dogs. I have raised a cat and a puppy so I understand the attention they need. I have volunteered at a Pit Bull rescue for a summer, as well as dog sat for family and friends throughout my life. I am an OU graduate, with a very flexible schedule. I work full time, but have availability to flex my hours to tend to your fur babies. I plan on watching your pets at your house. Your animals will feel much calmer in an environment that they are familiar with, in return they will ultimately be happier! I am more than happy to be there to tend to your animals needs!

About: Student Affairs professional for OHIO and love all furry animals. I had an amazing Norwegian Elkhound Mix and 2 cats. Now I have 9 month lab mix and 1 cat. Both very friendly and good with everyone. I'm very patient, optimistic, and kind. I have experience with pups & senior dogs. I'm comfortable administering medication, including injections and promise to love your pet unconditionally while they are in my care. Depending on the needs of your pets they'll enjoy at least one walk a day, potentially a hike, and get plenty of attention throughout their stay with me. Before rescuing my current dog, I trained two Great Pyrenees from 6 months to 3 years for a friend. I'm comfortable with all dogs and cats and hope I can help provide care for you soon! During the school year I work from home 2 days a weeks and in the summer 3 days! This gives me plenty of flexibility to check on your pets as needed. Additionally, I have the flexibility to check during my lunch break if needed when I'm in the office. I have a fenced in backyard and will gate off sections of our home until we know the dog is comfortable in our home and with our dog & cat. We block off the stairs to keep them on the ground floor with us.

Ness is a great drop-in cat care person! One of my cats adored her—she was his food source after all! The other cat, who is quite neurotic and hides when anyone comes in the house, usually goes on an hunger strike when I’m gone but actually ate his food and even meowed for her one time. Ness’ quiet energy made everyone happy.

Julie was great from the beginning! She was very responsive to messages and showed up right on time. We were camping at North Bend State Park, and she came and stayed at our RV for several hours, taking excellent care of our girl Willow! Highly recommend!!
