“Brittany was so amazing with our puppy. It was our first time leaving him and she made us feel so assured and worry free! She provided great care and sent many updates with pictures/video. I highly recommend her and can’t wait to have her again:)”


“Kiara did an awesome job staying at our house with our cat and dog. She communicated often, followed instructions to a T, and went above and beyond our expectations! We came home to a tidy house and happy pets. If our wild animals didn't drive her too crazy, we would love to have her petsit for us again!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a child. I have experience in puppy and senior care. I spent many years rescuing cats and volunteering in a cat shelter.

About: I've owned dogs of all kinds, big and small, young and old, as well as many cats, bunnies, and reptiles. Whichever type of pet you have, I will dedicate myself to making sure your companion safely has their needs met! I am a plant lover, so if you have any plants that need taken care of, I am willing to do that as well.🌿 I love to take cute pictures and will keep you plenty updated while you are away! I'm very flexible with scheduling and can help your pet at almost anytime.

“Lisa is a fabulous dog mum, she was great with sending pictures of the boys, updates and catering to their needs. My house was spotless. I would thoroughly recommend Lisa to care for your home and pets.”


About: Ever since I was a child, I have always owned pets of all sorts. Though, as I've grown older, I have made it my goal to provide them with the best care I can through extensive research and their own personal needs! I have cared for pocket pets such as rabbits, and currently I have a hefty pup of 130 pounds, and a senior kitty who is 18 that I have had since her birth! I am extremely flexible and I'd be more than happy to discuss your needs and figure out how to work you into my routine! I am available most hours of the day throughout the week and weekends as well! I care for pets within your home and am glad to abide by any rules you have and routines your pets or you like to follow! Feedings, walks, overnight stays and potty visits are all things I'm capable and willing to do!

“Ashly was amazing with our 2 dogs. She stayed with them for about 11 days and we received multiple updates and photos from the time she was with them. She left our house in amazing condition as well and there were zero issues while we were gone. Would definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone!”


“Kieran and Nicole are amazing!! They are so professional and caring - you don’t have to worry about a thing ! I have 3 dogs and a cat- everyone was cared for and loved ! I highly recommend them!”


“Barbra took care of our Halo so well. Very caring and attentive to his needs, and she went above and beyond! She was a great sitter that we will be using again soon :)”


About: Hi! I’m Jenna. I'm going into my sophomore year in college at Morehead State. I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds all of my life. I’m very patient, compassionate, and love dogs of all sizes. From small Shih Tzu’s and Yorkies to larger Hunting Dogs, Huskys, and even rambunctious Labs! I’m flexible with care guides and times because I understand all Dogs (AND cats!) have different needs. I was a cross country runner in high school so if your dog needs exercised, I’ll have them tuckered out! I am willing to walk your dog, drop by and play, and even give baths if needed. If you have more than one pet I’m more than happy and experienced in caring for multiple at a time. I can not WAIT to meet your adorable furry friend! I'm currently working part-time and will have plenty of time to care for your furry friend. Just schedule at least one day ahead, and I'll be there when you need me! For drop-by care and walking alike, I will be available to respond and be more than happy to send pictures of your fur-babies having fun!

About: Hi there! My name is Laikin. I have experience as a volunteer and foster at the local humane society for 6+ years. I have been dog sitting for over 7 years now, so I have experience with most breeds, sizes, and shapes of dogs. :) I personally own one dog, an australian shepard mix! I love spending time with dogs. I am good at following the directions and spending quality time with your pups! They will be in good hands and you’ll feel safe trusting me. I am responsible and able to stay calm in situations in order to give the best care to your dog! Look forward to meeting your pup :) I have lots of experience balancing my other responsibilities with providing quality pet care! I regularly worked as a sitter throughout my time as a full time college athlete. I have had experience with lots of different dogs with various needs, including various medical conditions. I am very good at following directions and providing loving care!

About: I helped train my mom’s 2 pit puppies and taught them tricks (shake, sit, etc.) I will love them like no other just like they’re my own! I am willing to spend majority of the week , every week, doing what I love most ! Whether that is having animal sleepovers , sightseeing , or just making sure they are fed and happy , I can always make time for you & your animals needs & wants . I have a kitten & a dog that just got out of their puppy stages ! I know what it’s like to have the mischievous zoomies ,the crazy jumping puppy kisses , and the leash pulling sniffers , but know how to handle it in a way that your animal will always be safe while with me .

About: Lifetime of experience, including dogs with behavioral challenges and special needs. I've volunteered at local shelters, and I've fostered rescue dogs in need. I have quite a bit of experience with dogs of every background! I am currently a college student and taking some time off of work to focus on my studies and would like to make some extra cash to help pay my loans/carry some weight at my family's house. My family has quite some land, and although not fenced, I am very active and always run with my own dog on a leash. I do 30 minutes to an hour walk twice a day. Potty breaks are very consistent.

About: I have cared for dogs both as a child and adult. They are one of life’s joys and I really enjoy being with them all I am semi-retired and set my own schedule. This allows me to be available when needed with enough notice and planning. I am excited about this. I can crate if needed. I walk dogs at least one time a day and would feed according to the owner’s instructions. Not a problem.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I’m experienced with both puppies/kittens and senior pets, and I treat every animal with love and respect. I’m kind-hearted, attentive, and always make sure to meet each pet’s needs based on the owner’s instructions. Whether your pet needs extra care, playtime, or just some love while you’re away—I’m here for them. I currently work part-time at Raising Cane’s, but animal care is a big part of my daily life. I care for my 3 cats, a leopard gecko, and a 55-gallon fish tank every day. I feed, clean, and check on all of them in the morning before work and again when I get home. On my days off, I spend even more time making sure their environments are clean and their needs are fully met. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m always happy to adjust my schedule for the pets I’m responsible for. I’m very safety-conscious and always prioritize the comfort and well-being of every pet I care for. I prefer to care for pets in their own home, where they’re familiar with their surroundings and routines. I closely follow any instructions provided and make sure pets feel calm, safe, and loved while their owners are away. While I’m open to caring for pets in my home when needed, I always make sure the space is secure, clean, and calm. As a vet tech student, I’m trained to notice signs of stress or discomfort and respond quickly to keep pets happy and safe.

I spend most of my time hanging out with my three silly Frenchies, and I’d be more than happy to care for your pets in their own space, just need reliable WiFi.

“Schawna stayed wtih our animals at the house for 5 days. She checked in with us to let them know they were doing well and sent us pictures with them as well. Our flight arrived late so we told her she could leave and the dogs would be okay so we didn’t get to chat with her before she parted, but we came home and were pleasantly surprised to see the house was also very clean, it even looked cleaner than when we left. We would definitely use Schawna again to take care of our 2 dogs, 2 cats, and home.”



About: Hi! My name is Amber. I am a teacher-turned-author looking to serve your every doggy need. Growing up, I thought I wanted to be a Vet. I spent every Saturday volunteering at the Ross Country Humane Society from ages 10-18 and was part of the Humane Society of the United States Advisory Board. I have spent thousands of hours with animals in shelters/rescues. After much prayer and consideration, God led me to writing instead of Veterinary work. I have experience in pet and house sitting, boarding, and walking. I love pets of all ages, breeds, and sizes, but have a particular soft spot for golden retrievers, huskies, and terrier mixes. As an author, I love showing love to animals and find it to be an excellent and comforting mind-break. Since getting married, I currently offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house/pet sitting in Chillicothe, Ohio. I don't currently own any pets of my own. I have worked with large and small pets and enjoy spending time with them. From pen to paws, I love serving your dogs through walking, feeding, bathroom breaks, running, and playing. I'm your sitter with a smile and an author who lives to serve! :) I am a full-time teacher-turned-author so I work from home. Pet care fits pretty easily into my routine as I make my schedule. Walking dogs, conducting drop-in visits, and house/pet sitting give me the mental break I need. Other than Church, or running errands, I am pretty flexible with needs. I offer complimentary photos and videos, check-in texts and messages, lots of love, walks, exercise, treats, and fun! Every pet has a stay like they are one of my pets. As mentioned, I don't currently don't have any pets of my own, but I grew up with dogs.

“I've seen firsthand Finn's diligence and care for many different kinds of pets and breeds.

Summer W.
“Summer is great with pets. I have an elderly, cranky English bulldog who is beyond spoiled and Summer would take care of her while I was away. She would sometimes stay a week or more and was excellent with my pup's ridiculous demands and pharmacy of meds. Mrs. Hudson was always happy and healthy when I returned. She was always excited to see her friend Summer when it was time for me to go away. In fact, now that we have moved, my dog is just a little less happy with any other sitter. You can be sure that your pets will be well taken care of and even a bit spoiled when you can't be there. I know how hard it is to trust someone with your furry family members but don't hesitate on contacting her. Your pups (or kitties) will be in great hands.”

Amber G.
“Amber has watched my dog Sam for about the past 4 years each summer when we take our family vacation. She is also was very flexible if we provided last minute dates. Amber was so attentive when we explained what she needed to do, and followed everything perfectly. She made sure he always got food and water and put to bed at night with a treat. She is so good with him and he loves having her come over to watch him so he wouldn’t have to go to the kennel. She also took care of our cat Sebastian while she was there and did an equally amazing job. I would highly recommend Amber as a dog sitter!!”
