“Where do I start?!?! Bobbie was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!! Not only did I get daily updates. I came home at two a beautifully cleaned house and sweet gifts left for my children. My kids loved Bobbie just as much as my dogs did!! I have a very scared/reactive dog and Bobbie handled him with ease. Her knowledge for all things dogs was amazing and I have never felt so comfortable leaving my dogs. Definitely will be using Bobbie again! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND BOBBIE FOR ANY OF YOUR PET NEEDS!!”

“Cierra was great! She arrived at the time she was scheduled to and took good care of my dogs. She stayed over night and sent me updates and photos of the dogs during her visit.

He also Made sure the stayed very close to their daily routine. Mark sent pictures and videos to insure us that they were receiving the best care, and they were!

“Bella watched Oscar at my house from Friday evening until Sunday morning. She was great with him, sent pictures and texts to update me and answered all questions I had. My neighbors even gave her a 5 Star review based on observations and speaking with her. This was my first time having someone watch him other than relatives and I was a bit nervous both for Oscar, Bella and myself for how it was going to go. I found all those nerves unnecessary as things turned out great! I would definitely request Bella again and recommend her to others.”


About: I have experience cat and dog sitting for various breeds and ages, and have been doing this for most of my adult life—I love it. From taking your dogs on walks, staying over night with your kitties or puppies, or even taking care of them when they are sick (I have experience with diabetic cats), I would love to make sure your pet is taken care of just as you would yourself. I’ve dealt with rambunctious wire hairs, skittish kittens, and everything in between. I am so excited to meet your favorite doggo or kitto and love on them! I currently work a full-time 9-5 job. When it comes to drop-ins and walks I am available before 8:30 am and after 5:30 pm during the week. My schedule on the weekends is more open. When housesitting I am available to stay overnight for as long as needed, but do want owners aware of my work schedule to make sure it will work for them and their animals. However you choose for me to care for your pets inside your home I am ready and prepared to do! I love cuddling with your pets and making sure they are as comfortable as possible while you are away. All I ask is for clear instructions so I can keep your fur baby’s schedule and environment as consistent as possible.

About: Welcome to our cozy pet boarding service! We provide a safe and loving environment for your furry friends while you're away. With multiple cats of our own, we understand the unique needs of feline companions. Our spacious and comfortable accommodations ensure that your pets feel right at home. We offer personalized care, playtime, and plenty of cuddles to keep them happy and entertained. Trust us to treat your pets like family! I have a job where I can pick my own hours and work for myself so I can watch pets anytime and be there for them whenever I need. I take very good care of pets in my home. I treat them as if they are my own. They have a large space to explore and run around in. Although I do not have a fenced in yard, I have absolutely no problem taking them out on a leash to go potty or even a park.

“Wendy dog-sat for me while I was in town for a family wedding. She was very communicative and responsive from the point of reservation through the visit. I was able to relax and enjoy the event knowing my pups were in good hands. I'd recommend Wendy and would book her again when I'm in town.”


About: I have always had a love for animals. My husband calls me Snow White because even ducks follow me. Everywhere I go animals follow me. I am a stay at home mom so I can devote all my attention to the fur babies. Your babies are my babies under my watch. I will take care of them like they are one of my babies. I currently have two tea cup pups and a shih Tzu mix. I have a fenced in yard and am home to take of them constantly. I have two tea cup pups and a shih Tzu mix

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and truly consider them part of the family. Their quirky personalities and cuddly moments never get old! While I’m a lifelong cat lover, I also have a soft spot for dogs and have plenty of experience caring for both. From energetic puppies and curious kittens to sweet senior pets who need a little extra TLC, I’ve been there every step of the way. Whether it’s playtime, medication, or just companionship, I’m passionate about giving every pet the love and attention they deserve. I work full time at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM. Even with a busy schedule, I make time for what matters—so I’m available for pet care visits after work on weekdays, anytime after 2 PM on Fridays, and fully open on weekends. I’m dependable, flexible, and committed to making sure your pets feel loved and cared for, even when your schedule gets hectic. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority, whether they have paws that pounce or tails that wag. I take the time to understand each animal’s unique needs and routines, making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and feeding routines, and I always keep a close eye on behavior and health. Whether it’s a curious cat or an energetic pup, I treat every pet like my own—with patience, gentleness, and lots of love. You can trust that they’re in safe, caring hands.

About: My name is Allison and I am "pet parent" to my two rescue dogs, Macy and Mia! In addition to caring for my own animals (both age 10), I have experience with drop-in visits, walking, and extended stays with repeat clients. I have completed several training sessions with my dogs, and Macy passed the Canine Good Citizen test. I also have a personal interest in learning more about animal communication and body language, and I am always looking for innovative ways to train and keep my own dogs engaged in a fun activity. I have a full time job working from home, so I do have some flexibility in my schedule to help care for your animal! Your pet’s wellbeing is my top priority and I will do my best to make them feel as comfortable while you're gone! I may also send one too many pictures to keep you updated! 😁 I work from home full-time but I am free many weekends or random days! Please always check if I am not listed because I may be able to accommodate! I will follow your pet’s routines to the best of my ability. I will keep a watchful eye on them whenever they’re outside or out of the room. I make sure to follow a family’s safety protocols and ask for as many details as possible.

“After 1 1/2 days of being home from one trip Donna came back to stay at our house so we could visit relatives. It was so easy having Donna come and stay at our house for a second time. Familiarity with routines, the house, and dog personalities made it easy for us to go away and easy on our 3 dogs because they remain in familiar surroundings. The timing of this trip to visit relatives wasn't planned much in advance but Donna looked at this stay as a way to help us by providing worry free care for our dogs. The bonus was finding a great macaroni salad in the fridge.”
