“Another great experience with Samantha! She was very attentive to both kitties, noticed right away that Griffy was feeling a bit off, and even cleaned up his puke-mess on the carpet! Highly recommend her!”
About: I've wanted to be a veterinarian since I could talk. I've always loved animals. I chose another career path, but I work part-time, on weekends. My kids are all self sufficient, so now I can devote more time to things I enjoy: playing with, and caring for animals. I am currently working part-time, weekends only, so I am available Monday through Friday for all of your pet care needs. Please let me help! I have a fully fenced in yard, 6 foot privacy fence. I have a pup who's 13 weeks that would love the company of your furry friends.
“Sarah is a very caring petsitter and went above and beyond to make sure my pet was well looked after. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet. She's the best sitter we've ever had!”
“Rachel was fantastic for drop ins with our dogs. She arrived on time and made sure they were well taken care of. She provided ample updates and so many photos! She’s already booked for another stay with our dogs. Highly recommend her!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and other pets for many years and also worked at the zoo! I love animals and have passion to care for what you love. I will treat each animal like my own, and ensure your love is felt from wherever you are! I am in school currently to get my doctorate in physical therapy, but I have a lot of time to care and help for your furry family members! I have a very open schedule! I will ensure all boundaries are approved by the client and my own. I have a fence and a safe area as well as will send updates to the client as much as possible. I will do my best to be the best sitter and always go above and beyond.
“Harley seemed to have a good visit with Hannah! It was a semi-long day for Harley in the crate, but he was still tired for bed which means he must of had a good energy release when Hannah visited.”
“Highly recommend Debbie! She was so good with our pup. She posted pictures every visit so we could see her while we were gone. She was very quick on responding and a great communicator. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and have always ended up having dogs that are in some cases special needs. I truly love to be around animals because their happiness is so pure. I am a nurse by day and an animal cuddler by night. I am able to give medication’s. I work on basic commands. I have taken care of dogs from puppies to senior. If there is something specific that needs to be taken care of while taking care of your loved one, I will definitely work something out. I am currently taking a vacation between my travel contract for nursing and will be available throughout the day. If there is a specific time or day that works best for you, I will try to make it as easy on you as possible. I typically will have the animal on a leash if there is not a fenced in backyard. Of course, depending on the situation I will allow the owner to guide me on how they prefer to have the animal leashed and will take the precautions necessary to keep them safe.
About: I have always taken care of dogs from my families to my friends. About 4 years ago I got my first dog and have enjoyed the process of being a pet parent. I understand leaving your dog can be stressful but I check in frequently because I understand that stress myself! I am a college student!! I have decently free schedules with having classes on Mon/Wed 11-430pm and Tue/Thurs 2-430PM. Fridays and Weekends are completely open! With Cats, I always make sure to check around the house for accidents and then take the litter out at least once a day. I’ll feed your cat according to the instructions provided and make sure water bowls are filled. I also like to make sure that a cat has at least 30 minutes of time to play and receive love. With dogs, I make sure to take them out during each visit for a potty break. I make sure to feed them according to Instructions and make sure water is full. I also like to check the house for accidents if they are free roam. I make sure to play for at least 30 minutes each visit that way they feel relaxed and happy!
About: I’ve cared for animals for 42 of my 47 years. I love cats and dogs and I’m looking forward to helping your animals be happy and healthy. I am a volunteer dog walker at Cincinnati Animal Care so I get lots of practice! I am a professional in my real job, but have a very flexible schedule and I’m able to walk your dog early in the morning or pet sit at night. I can make your schedule work with mine. I cannot have animals in my apartment but I will care for your pets however you would like me to. I understand every animal has their own needs and personality.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. There has always been a dog in my life that I’ve cared for. Dogs are my passion. I’ve also taken care of many other animals due to growing up on a farm. I currently work full time with mostly evening availability. Free any time on the weekends and during the week when I’m not at work but am able to keep overnights anytime. I have plenty of space in my apartment to play. I have one doggy at home to keep your pet company but can also crate your pet if wanted.
About: Ive raised dogs and cats, bred dogs and have always had at least one pet. I have taken care of my daughter's two dogs. I grew up on a farm in indiana. We had farm animals and cats, kittens and a dog or two. Im retired and looking for part time work. I love animals and love being outside to walk and play with client's pets. I love to be busy and get out and meet people, pets and get some exercise. I can't take care of pets at my home but will come to you if that is okay. I would make sure to follow a client instructions on walking, feeding etc.
About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of animal since I was a kid. I started bottle feeding strays kitten I had found at around the age of 8. Puppies are slightly different for me as I never raised them but still given the same care. I work full time for amazon, but want to devote more of my time to caring for animal so I do make sure I have a flexible schedule. I don’t have anything unsafe in my home for my own pets, so the same will go for someone else’s. They’re not limited to where they can spend their time. I do use precautions to keep away from the cat boxes for dogs.
About: You know when you walk by a dog, he starts walking towards you, trying to drag their owner towards you, and you know he just wants to say hello and be pet? My thought process is the same as the dogs every time I pass one. Nine times out of ten I will stop, ask the owner if it's alright to pet their dog, then sit and chat with them and love on the dog for a while. (And I only chat to pet the dog longer). All my life I have heard many cases of, "Don't touch my cat or he'll scratch you" or "Watch out for the dog, he growls at everyone" and before my visit is over I have the cat in my lap and the dog following me where ever I go. My fiancée calls me Dr. Doolittle.
About: Ive taken care of dogs since I was 5! The photos on my profile are only some of the animals I’ve loved over the years. I’m knowledgeable, responsible, caring, thoughtful & will show your pet all the love! My schedule is completely open right now after traveling for the last few months & I don’t currently have any pets so I’d love to care for yours! I make sure that your pet is always in eyesight. I love animals so much & believe they deserve a lot of attention whether that’s playing with a toy together or just petting their head while they lay with or near me.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my family since I was 10. I love to give them the attention and love they deserve! Your fur baby will miss you when you’re gone, but I can make that time away easier and less stressful. I work right down the road from my home, so I can check on them at lunch. On the weekends, I’m wide open and would love to watch your furry family member. Your dog can snuggle up on the sofa with me. If you need me to crate your dog, I can totally do that. I am also willing to take your dog for walks. I think sticking to the dog’s routine is best.
“Corissa did great job checking in on Domino while I was on a road trip. Corissa even managed to make my rather reclusive cat come out for a look while she fed Domino and cleaned her litter. I was nervous about using the Rover service but not anymore. I really appreciated the daily check notices and photos. Corissa is reliable and she communicates well. She has my highest recommendation!”
About: I currently have a dog sitting business around my home Lawrenceburg Indiana! I have been dog sitting for 5 years and I have worked at a doggy daycare for over three years. I currently have one job! My shift usually ranges from 5-8 hours! So if your fur babies are used to 8 hours I’d love to help! I will treat your babies like my own animals! I consider my dogs my children and I love them to death. I constantly do update and send pictures!

Nick O.
“I can’t recommend Nick highly enough as a pet caregiver. He has a natural gift when it comes to animals, patient, attentive, and full of love. From the first time I saw him interact with a dog, it was clear how much he genuinely cares for their happiness and well-being. Whether it’s going on long walks, playing fetch, or just giving belly rubs and snuggles, Nick truly goes above and beyond to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. Nick is also incredibly responsible. He always shows up on time, follows instructions to the letter, and checks in with updates and photos to keep you in the loop. It gives such peace of mind knowing that your pet is not only being looked after, but is being treated like part of the family. He’s handled everything from energetic puppies to older dogs who need medication and a gentler touch, always with compassion and professionalism. Beyond that, Nick is just a kind and trustworthy person. He creates a calm, positive environment that animals are naturally drawn to. My own dog absolutely lights up when Nick comes around, and that says everything. You won’t find someone more dedicated or more genuine. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your pet like their own, Nick is your guy. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my fur baby in his care again, and I know they’d be wagging their tail the whole time.”

“I’m constantly working and my cat Cosmo really needed someone to spend time with him while I was away. I found Ella through a friend and she came and checked on him throughout the day. She really is an animal lover and showed genuine love for my cat. Would recommend to anyone who worries about leaving their animals at home!”
Olivia W.
“Olivia responded to our last minute request to check in on our cat while we were away! She’s super responsive and sends good pictures and notes! Recommend :)”

Torrey H.
“Torrey is fantastic with animals. She’s always been so kind and gentle and rescued and nursed many back to health. I even helped her before! There’s been times when she’s also kept many of the animals whose lives she’s saved if that tells you how much she cares.”
Ron H.
“Ron and I were roommates for several years. Ron had a pittie and I owned a French Mastiff. Through the years of living under the same roof and both of us owning dogs, I have true first hand, day to day knowledge of just how amazing Ron is with dogs. Ron's dog Loki had possibly an allergy of some kind and I would see Ron giving Loki his meds like clock work. Ron always fed Loki quality dog food. Loki never lacked for love, attention, and was well behaved due to Ron being so diligent with him. Kind and caring. Ron earned my trust immediately and I would leave my Mastiff, Aubrey in his care. I NEVER left my Aubrey with anyone, ever. Aubrey adored him. Loki adored him. Ron was attentive to every tiny thing about Loki (and Aubrey) and so when he spotted a tiny lump on Loki, to the vets they went. Loki had cancer and he didn't waste one minute to have it removed. Ron was extremely vigilant watching over Loki (although, he obviously always did) and if there were any question or doubt, off to the vets he would go. I could not name one single person who I would trust more with my dog than Ron. Ron loves dogs with a passion that you only see in a handful of people.”
