“Tricia is fantastic! She was available at super late notice, responds quick to messages and took great care of my pup. Ella loved spending time w her and she even brought my delivered packages in. Tricia is very nice, trustworthy and goes above and beyond! Will definitely reach back out to her next time I need someone to take care of my crazy Doodle!”

“Sharon was so amazing with Billie. A true dog whisperer. Billie has never had a dog walker come into the house before and turns out she is quite the guard dog. Sharon had met her at a meet & greet but Billie was scared when she came back alone. But Sharon charmed her with some treats and skritches and her sweet demeanor with animals, and now, after a couple of walks, they are besties. We appreciate Sharon’s extraordinary talent with animals. Her persistence and kindness won over our nervous furbaby and allowed us to be with family during a difficult time. We have already rebooked Sharon and Billie hopes this will be a long-term friendship!”

About: Hi, I’m Sabrina! I have over 7 years of experience with animals, including time in vet clinics, zoos, and dog daycares. I also did vet assisting for 7 years. I now focus on training, pet sitting, and spending time with animals full-time. I train my Cane Corso in various dog sports using a fair and positive balanced training approach that builds trust, structure, and confidence. I also have chickens, a cat, and a snake — so I’m comfortable with all kinds of pets! Your animals will be safe, loved, and well-cared for with me. I treat every pet like my own and believe play and connection are just as important as routine care. Let me know how I can help! I care for my animals daily—feeding my chickens, handling my snake, and cuddling my cat. I train and do dog sports with my two dogs every day, keeping them active and happy outdoors. I bring the same love, routine, and attention to every pet I care for. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. I have a laid-back Cane Corso and a young, energetic hunting prospect GSP, so I’m experienced balancing calm time with fun, engaging activities like scent work. I tailor care to each pet’s needs, providing gentle attention, plenty of exercise, and a secure environment where they feel safe and loved.

About: I've raised pets (dogs and cats) for most of my adult life and would love to care for yours while you're away! With me, your precious furry family members will get the love and care they deserve, and I'll stay in frequent contact with (texts/calls/pics) you about their care. I've been away or on vacation and employed pet sitters in the past, and I know how reassuring that frequent communication is! I am retired and have no strict obligations that would keep me from sticking to any care schedule you need. Over the course of my work life, I've adapted to about every time and day schedule possible - weekends/late nights/early mornings are no problem! I have a reliable two-year old car, and am very experienced using any modern technology necessary if anything unexpected happened (Google Maps/Hailing an Uber/Anything smartphone related, etc) I understand how important it is to meet your expectations regarding the care of your animals and I will do whatever it takes, and I will treat your home with the utmost respect.

“My dogs love Erica. She is punctual and very friendly. I definitely will recommend her to others.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for a variety of pets, especially cats, and I bring a calm, attentive, and loving approach to every visit. From feeding and medication to playtime and companionship, I tailor each visit to meet the specific needs of every pet. As a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet parent, I understand how important it is to maintain routines and create a stress, free environment while owners are away. Whether caring for energetic kittens, shy cats, or other small animals, I treat every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because it aligns with what I already love doing, spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for, as well as caring for my three fur babies. I plan my schedule to allow plenty of time for visits, giving each pet the attention they need without feeling rushed. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I enjoy building consistent routines that keep pets comfortable and owners reassured. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s part of how I live. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, aiming to keep everything as familiar and consistent as possible for the pet. I follow detailed instructions, give updates to the owner, and make sure each visit includes essentials like feeding, playtime, and litter or potty breaks. I also keep an eye out for any changes in behavior or health. Whether in my home or theirs, I treat every pet like family, with love, patience, and dependable care.

“Amanda was amazing! My dog liked her instantly despite being selective. She also knew how to handle Marcie who is a bit of a nervous dog and can be reactive. I would absolutely recommend Amanda!”

About: I am a former animal shelter volunteer and comfortable with many dogs of all shapes and sizes, young or old, and either leashed or unleashed. I’m currently working on setting up an online business which makes my weekly hours flexible. I am also open to extending availability on weekends as well. I never let dogs off the leash unless we are in a designated fenced in area, and I’m happy to provide photos, GPS tracking, and detailed updates as necessary.

“5 stars as always!!”

About: I have cared for pets my whole life, growing up with both dogs and cats. I now own a cat named Noodle. I’ve also helped care for the furry friends of friends and family while away on vacation. I provide attentive and safe care, whether it be feeding schedules, play time, walks, or cuddles I currently work from home on a hybrid schedule. I am home Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I am available after 5:30 pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. I am available for check ins, play time, and walks. I am an active hiker and enjoy long walks wherever your pet may feel most comfortable.

About: Hi, my name is Lindsey! I have been around dogs ever since I was a little girl, but have been caring for animals on my own since I was 16. Dogs are surely my passion as I hope to open up a dog daycare or boarding facility some day. I posses skills I’ve learned working at an animal shelter with lost or abandoned animals, as a doggie daycare manager, and also a boarding center handler. My past experiences allow me to be able to provide each animal I come across with the care they deserve. I believe animals make us better people and I would love to meet you and your fur children! I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. I’m not currently working, so my full time job would be caring for your pet! When it comes to looking after other pet parents’ animals, my skills are heavily reliant on my keen sense of observation. I will always notice behaviors before they are about to happen (ex: potty accidents, gagging, getting into something they shouldn’t) because of my experience reading dogs and their body language.

About: Having grown up with many different pets has made me very passionate about their care. I have worked in daycare, boarding, and am a certified dog grooming academy graduate. I am currently working as a dog groomer with a part time flexible schedule. My availability is most days anytime after 11am. Same day booking is okay as well. Treating others as you would like to be treated is my lifetime motto. Your fur babies will be given caring treatment as if they were my own.

“Stephanie has walked our dog a few times already and I am always at ease knowing she will come by to take care of Clark. She has always been able to accommodate us even on short notice, always sends pictures and details of the walks and still came through for us with a twisted ankle!!! Thanks so much Stephanie! We are both so glad we were able to find someone trustworthy and reliable in our area to help us out every once in a while. Definitely a long term go to! And I really can’t stress enough how much we appreciate the flexibility and accommodation.”

About: I have experiences with different breeds of dogs from Lhasa Apso to Great Danes! I’ve been trusted to watch and feed dogs for my neighbors, family friends, etc. for over 5 years and I’ve never met a dog I didn’t absolutely adore. I’m currently a student at the University of Dayton and am looking to earn some money to pay for my classes. I’m free every weekday after 12 pm, but want something more flexible than set hours as I still have to study for tests, do homework, etc. As I’m staying in University housing, I’m solely doing visits to client’s homes. I am a detail oriented person and will gain the trust of your pet before anything to ensure that they are comfortable with me being around. I will follow any directions given to me and will be transparent with any questions/concerns I may have about your pet.

About: I have a long history of dog walking and care experience. I love big dogs that are able to run and be active, however I appriciate small dogs as well! I am a runner so enjoy taking dogs on runs if they are big enough or you are comfortable with that. I like playing with dogs however they feel comfortable, and generally can become a dog’s friend quickly and gain their trust. I know the importance of a dog trusting it’s caregiver/walker in order to create a positive experience for them. I have a job where I can create my own schedule, so have flexibility in when I can walk and dog sit. Dogs truly are great companions and friends and I am excited to be a part of your dog’s well being. I have my own 1 year old golden retriever, and absolutely love spending time with him! I will treat your pets as I do my own, as family! I have my own dog so know the importance of safety and trust. I will make sure your pet is kept safe and comfortable at all times.
