Nafawna was amazing!!! She sent me updates and completely eased my anxiety about leaving my dog for the weekend. She kept Moose so happy, calm and safe. She will definitely be my first choice from now on.

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 am very good at following directions and providing loving care!

About: I have experience caring for animals of all sizes and temperaments, with a strong background in working with dogs ranging from small breeds to giant breeds such as Neapolitan Mastiffs and Great Danes. In my current household, I care for five dogs, including two dogs over 100 pounds, two medium sized dogs, and one small Chihuahua. I have raised three dogs from puppyhood, giving me hands on experience with puppy behavior, routine reinforcement, and the changing needs of dogs throughout their lives. I am equally comfortable caring for senior dogs and understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and gentle handling as pets age. I also have experience administering medications when needed and carefully follow all care instructions provided by pet owners. In addition to dogs, I have experience caring for cats and have been around animals my entire life. I also personally care for reptiles, including snakes and a crested gecko, and am familiar with specialized feeding and habitat routines. Whether providing in home pet care, house sitting, drop in visits, or dog walking, I approach every service with reliability, clear communication, and a genuine commitment to ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting your pets and hopefully becoming a trusted, regular caregiver for your family. I’m blessed to have a job where I can be flexible during the week, weekends, and holidays. Of course communication is always key 🔑 😃 I can care for pets in your home where they feel most comfortable and not stressed. Your house, your rules - my favorite would be to get to cuddle and play with them!

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.

About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for my own rescue pup, Wubzy! He’s a high-energy 2-year-old, so I’m very comfortable handling playful, active dogs and making sure they get the attention and exercise they need. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog like my own—with patience, love, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe and happy. I’m reliable, attentive, and always willing to follow any specific routines or instructions you have for your pet. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the attention they deserve! I’m available weekdays from 7am to about 5pm and full-time on weekends for walks, drop-ins, or boarding. I can adjust my schedule when needed and will always make sure your pet gets consistent care, playtime, and potty breaks. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a clean home where dogs can play and relax. I also have friendly dogs who can keep your pup company if they enjoy being social. I’m able to crate your dog if needed and will always follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special care. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and treated like family at all times.

Thank you so much for taking such great care of our pets! We had a two week trip to Europe and it was so nice to be so far away and not have to worry. Charity even handled our AC dying during our trip and sorting out a repair man and keeping everyone cool and comfortable in the summer heat. Can’t recommend highly enough!

About: I have 5 animals- 4 cats & 1 dog. I have always had such a connection with animals, I enjoy taking care of them & bonding, I have fostered dogs & my animals were all adopted from shelters. I am able to sit for several animals, cats included- as well as walking the animals, feeding, bathing, playing, you name it! I work Monday through Friday I would be available in the evenings after work & early mornings on the weekends! I work from home Monday and Tuesdays so I can provide doggy daycare during those days as well. I do have animals myself so I typically would come home feed and let them out and then I am available all evening! In my clients home I can take them on walks if a yard with a fence is available I still will go out with them have playtime, & still take them on the occasional or everyday walks if that is preferred! I will feed & look after them as well if dog sitting is requested rather than just a walk - I can also help practice things that the dog parent is wanting like crate training, training in general.. I also watch cats so I can play with them, feed & look after also

Nicole was wonderful with our red heeler! It was our first time away from her for an extended period of time (8 nights) and we were anxious about leaving her alone. Nicole sent us picture constantly and reassured us that our girl was happy and getting plenty of play time. Definitely will book with her again whenever we need a sitter for Hazel.

About: Currently in Leadville. Ready to meet some new doggos. I’ve been dog sitting since 2015. I have a standard poodle who is great with other pets and loves to play. I have a fenced in backyard. We are very active and love getting outside and we are in the perfect area for that. I have two pretty awesome pups, both high energy poodles, so rain or shine we find a way to play outside. They go lots of places with me and I usually work around their schedule! 🐩 🐩 Make sure I know the ins and outs of the home and everyone is always comfortable. My dogs have their favorite spots and safe places and I know when I’m in clients homes to always be aware.

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.

She watched our dog two times. Once for five nights and the other for three nights and she was excellent. No hiccups whatsoever. We will be using her every time we need a dog sitter. We highly recommend her.
