About: I have always loved animals ever since I was small. My experience really started when I was able to live on my own and adopt my first pet, a female cat named Kitty, in 2001. I have flexible hours and am willing to help pretty much any time. I currently work part time for myself as an Ebay seller and I sell mostly 3D printed items. I have 3 teenage sons and a tween daughter who are also animal lovers. I have a fenced backyard if needed and I can also help at the client's home. I follow instructions well and can offer your pet safety and love on their terms.
About: I have had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of pets, (small, big, old, young, feisty, etc.), since I was a little girl. From walking to feeding and bathing, friends, family and neighbors have and continue to trust me with their furry friends. Additionally, I have years of experience watching children and am very good in trying situations. I currently work part-time Wednesdays-Saturdays, 11-3, so my schedule is wide open for taking care of your little friends. I have a car and am willing to drive a good distance, too:) Regardless of location, I like to make sure all pets are comfortable and have any toys, beds, treats, etc. that they require. I like to do whatever they like to do- throwing a ball around, going for a walk, playing with toys, (Please let me know if there is anything your pet particularly likes:). Additionally, I am meticulous when it comes to any and all instructions. In my neighborhood, we have a lot of pets being walked around all day long, so I like taking a walk to let the pets 'socialize'.
About: I have many years of experience in animal care. I have always grown up with animals. My friends and family always relied on me to help take care of them. That is why I chose to get my degree in the Science of Veterinary Technology. Being a Vet Tech has really helped me learn the behaviors and mannerisms of animals. I spent almost 10 years in wildlife rehabilitation, the last few years has been in a clinic mostly with small animal care. I am skilled in feeding, watering, walking , cleaning and administering medications. I have dealt with wide ranges of ages when it comes to animals. I have taken care of lots of puppies and even our favorite senior friends. My current dog is going on 18 years old! Age is just a number! They are great in all ways no matter the age! With being a Vet Tech comes MANY responsibilities. Many of which I am proud to say I am skilled in. I would love to take care of your fur babies and give them the love they need while you are away! I also have experience of taking care of rodent friends as well! Including mice, rats, hamsters, rabbits and guinea pigs. I am currently still working a full time job at my clinic , but I am willing to work around my schedule and on the days I have off to take care of your pets! I currently have Wednesday and some weekends off! I am willing to be flexible the best that I can for you! My dog is currently almost 18. She stays out of the cage and sleeps in my husband and I’s bed or her own bed next to ours. She does not do much anymore but sleep and eat! My cat as her own cat bedroom that I keep closed while we are out. Whatever and however you keep your pets in and or out is okay with me! Free roaming or crate training , either or!
About: I've been a dog owner and lover for 30 years. Growing up my parents raised and breed AKC Golden Retrievers and I helped and learned so much then. Dog's love me and I love them back! I am pet and house sitting full time.I currently live in Oberlin Ohio. I enjoy outdoor walks pretty often and miss going to the dog park. With love and attention.

About: My journey as a dog owner, animal shelter volunteer, and animal enthusiast has cultivated a profound devotion to our canine companions. Now, I'm excited to turn that love into exceptional care for your beloved pets as your dedicated sitter. I presently work as a Doggy Daycare Specialist and have experience managing groups of 30+ dogs at a time and ensuring all dogs needs are met. I have experience with dogs of all training levels and have worked with dogs of any age range. As a college student, my weekly schedule can vary, but my commitment to working with animals has consistently provided me with the perfect stress relief. I have access to transportation around the area and love talking long carefree walks. Creating a safe and trusting environment in the comfort of your own home is of the utmost importance. I want to assure you that I will always respect your privacy, ensuring that your cherished space remains a sanctuary for your beloved pets and a place of trust and security.

“Hannah did a great job taking care of my two Maine Coon cats, Rocky and Moose. She sent me informative updates and photos on a daily basis which were much appreciated! Five Stars!!”
About: I’ve always had a strong passion for all animals since I was a little girl! I have experience working in shelters or other daycare facilities with all kinds of animals to dogs, cats, birds, even gerbils. Everyday I want to learn something new to expand my knowledge and experience with my furry friends. I will continue to do so with my pet loving family, who is here to help and take care of your all my costumers needs! I’m currently in college that is online for Animal Health and Behavioral studies and looking for a work-at-home job to continue my “stay at home dog mom” life! Due to the snowy weather season we are currently not a fenced in yard. As soon as the weather becomes a bit nicer we will be working on that project so I can even provide freedom run for my pets here at home with me! I usually feed my pets twice a day with enrichments here and there. Potty walks every 1-3 hours if/when we are home for a long period of time. My pets at home are usually allowed to sleep in the bed with us if not they do have their own doggy beds. They rarely stay in the crates here at home, unless I have to leave the house for a couple hours. I want them to have their energy going and free roaming as much as possible with all the toys in the world that i provide for them! They deserve as much exercise! Otherwise, it’s pretty calm and happy life here for them they enjoy every day!

EDNA CRISTINA G.
“Edna Cristina has cared for my dogs (and my children initially) on and off for nearly 8 years. She is extremely reliable and develops an amazing rapport with all animals she encounters. She has a big heart and cares deeply about those in her charge. Edna Cristina is a delightful person. She holds high standards and is always interested in learning new skills. She taught herself how to groom our two big, hairy Golden Retrievers. They adore and miss her since she doesn't live near us anymore. Anyone who has the chance to hire her is lucky!”

Kaylie J.
“Kaylie is really good with pets, with having the experience of three jobs working in the boarding and daycare industry. Also volunteering in the rescue facility for the Animal Protection League (APL). She’s gained 4+ years with all this experience dealing with all types of animals such as dogs, cats, and even gerbils. I think she’s a great companion to these animals and I see she really cares for them, especially with her own pets at home. She’s also learning something new everyday with being a full time online college student working on an Animal Health and Behavior degree that will help her reach her goals of being a Vet technician and becoming a rehabilitation specialist. I believe she is a good reliable person for this role.”
