Pet Sitting in Cincinnati

“Nina did an outstanding job taking care of our bunny. She was very attentive and prompt with messages/updates. She made our first experience with Rover an excellent one, and we will definitely seek her help again in the future.”

“Meranda is an absolute GEM! We had an emergency where our pups needed more care. She was ready in less than 30 minutes to watch our pups! She even took them to the dog park!!!! This is the BEST sitter in Cinci! We will book with her again when we visit Cinci next time!!!!”

“Olivia was an incredible help while we were away visiting family. She was very attentive to our elderly cat, took instructions perfectly, and was very communicative throughout her visits. I can’t recommend Olivia enough!”

About: Early 40’s year old sitter/walker with car. You could say I have 40+ years of experience. My family had a German Shepherd from before I was born and I was very close to her. There has been a stream of pets in my family. Including so so so many cats in NYC. Even going so far as to “rescue” a half feral one. Currently, I share ownership of a dog. As a small business owner of over 10 years, I am able to have a flexible schedule and spend more time hanging out with your pet(s). That said, I have a lot of experience managing other people, and I do have high expectations for clear communication from clients. I have never had a complaint from clients that already have human children. I am very clear about the kind of care I offer. For example, I clearly state I can do 4-8 hrs for letting out. That does not mean that when I get to the sit, you tell me you expect every hour. I also do not cancel other bookings so that you can be the sole client. I have been through that, obliged, and the client was still dissatisfied. I am running a business and the new owner of this app runs on harsh algorithms that hide you in search. Let’s try to be better and more human, than conforming to private equity and their bottom line. For the fur babies, I can follow their diet and pet or play or brush their hair. As long as you give me a list or schedule, I'll do my best to provide it. I have extensive experience with pets at all stages of life. (As well as other kinds of pets which I am open to caring for.) I understand the care required for a wide variety of needs and can do my best to provide reinforcement on current training, but I am not going to be attuned right off the jump to the nuances noticed by your trainer or you... I can reinforce sit, lay down, paw, stay, heel, rollover, or anything else. I can administer medicine. I am not formally trained in pet CPR, but I am trained in human CPR and have looked at videos for pet CPR. When I was younger I worked as a lifeguard, and have a remarkable natural ability to stay calm and act fast in crisis situations. This comes in handy, for example: when protecting my maltipoo from other dogs, managing territorial behavior, or keeping one dog out of another dog’s bowl. My schedule is flexible and I have a car. I have a small business and partial responsibility of my dog, so I do need to be able to run errands, go to meetings, or check in at home to keep that part of my life running. For extended care, and distance further than 5 miles, I prefer be given the option to stay over at clients for the sake of gas costs, time, and energy. First meeting and approach are important to setting a precedent, I first see if the pet will approach me. I like to offer my hand palm down for them to smell. Sometimes it takes a few times smelling the hand before they feel comfortable letting me pet them. In my opinion it’s important not to mess up first impressions with the pet. Spending time together builds familiarity bonds, being attentive builds trust. It’s important to build rapport.

“I had a great experience working with Emma! She took great care of my kitties and helped give medication to one of them, while also monitoring her condition and keeping me updated every day. It really gave me peace of mind. The kitties are happy to see her again!”

“I’m very happy that I found Melissa! She was very gentle and kind with my beloved cat, she spent the entire time of her visit with him, sent me detailed update and cute pictures! Really appreciate her help and for sure will book her service again! Also very pleasant communication with her! Definitely can recommend Melissa!”

About: My husband and I have been pet sitting for a couple years, we have experiences with both large and small dogs, we have a super friendly corgi who would love to make new furiends. We also have two black cats that does really well with meeting new pets, ink is a senior cat that’s really laid back and just sleeps all the time, boba is a very playful kitty that loves zooming around and fetch, they would love to have new playmates! If you need any training during the stay, we can help with that, as well as bathe your pets if needed. We can also easily crate your dog(s) at home if preferred. We’re both freelancers, so our schedule is very flexible, we usually work around the afternoon time, if we’re both out of the house, it won’t be more than 2 hours. We have a super friendly corgi to keep your fur baby company, while we don’t have a fenced in yard, we have a very big front & side yard that they can hang out and play on, we also take 2 walks a day at least, if the weather is nice we can do 3, or however much the dog desires.

“Jeff really took his time getting to know Bella and did a wonderful job taking care of her. I would HIGHLY recommend Jeff to anyone looking for someone to look after their pets while they are away.”

“Anna was awesome with my chi! She was here on time and sent the cutest pictures. I felt comfortable leaving my pup in her care. I will definitely be rebooking!”

“Jessalyn went above and beyond for our 3 pets, but especially our senior Labrador. She just went on a special diet before vacation that we were still figuring out, and Jessalyn made sure she did everything she could to ensure Stella ate and was comfortable. I left very detailed notes, and Jessalyn followed them all. We were impressed because she washed the dog bowls every day and we don't even do that. I highly recommend Jessalyn for your fur babies.”

About: What sets me apart is my experience and flexibility. I started pet sitting in college and have always loved caring for animals. Now that I work locally with summer hours ending before 5, I’m able to offer reliable drop-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I treat every pet like my own and understand how important consistency and trust are for pet owners Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I work in Hyde Park, so I’m already in the area during the week. On Wednesdays I’m off at 1, Thursdays at 2, and Fridays I’m off all day, which gives me plenty of flexibility. I care for pets like they’re part of the family. My own dogs are definitely spoiled — we have a 10.5-year-old Lab/Collie mix and recently adopted a 1-year-old Chihuahua mix — so I’m used to caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and comfort to help them feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away

“I am beyond grateful for Alison’s exceptional care of my dog. Not only did they provide all the basics—feeding, walks, and playtime—but they went the extra mile to make sure my dog was safe during a snowstorm. She was incredibly. It was evident that Alison thought about my dog and when above and beyond and truly cares about animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, thank you for your kindness and dedication!”

“Tabby is absolutely wonderful. My pups and kitty had a lovely time with her. I could tell they were really comfortable while I was gone. She has watched them multiple times at this point and I will definitely be booking her for services again whenever I am headed out of town.”

“Gabby did GREAT handling my two big babies! They loved her and I had no issues. I will for sure be rebooking Gabby when I need help in the future. Thanks again!”

“Emily was available on short notice and took great care of our two cats while we were away. This is our second time booking with Emily, and we would definitely trust her to watch our cats again!”
