About: I have been regularly pet sitting for the past three years, and have sat for various friends' pets in the past. I have cared for senior pets and administered medication. I understand that having the "parents" away can be a stressful time for a pet, and I do my part to ensure that the pets are as comfortable as possible while under my care. I am an artist/freelance designer and side gig virtuoso (that's a fancy way of saying I make my own schedule). I keep things flexible to adapt to different environments. I believe that animals are healers and that we get back the care that we give to them. I am deeply grateful that I get to have the freedom that this and my other gig/freelance work allows me. I hope that is reflected in my care and respect of the clients' home.
About: I can walk your pet, bathe your pet if needed, and also pet sit if you want me to. Just ask me, the worst I can do is say no. I am available to do pet care whenever you need me to if I have some type of notice to do so. Thank you so much. I make sure that all my animals have what they need at all times, as well as my clients pets, if they need/want it they will have it.
About: I’ve taken care of friends, families and my own pets since I was about 12. Overnight stays, feeding, walking and bathing. I have also two years of experience caring for dogs at the shelter and currently two cats of my own! I’m currently working part time and in college so plenty of time in between classes to pop in or take your pup for a walk! I plan on doing my best to keep your pet safe. Like always accompanying your pet when playing out side and making sure toys, treats and food are approved by the owner!
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was little and truly have a love of it. I have been taking care of other people's dogs for five years. I have experience with both senior dogs and puppies. I am currently not working a normal job so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I will have time for weekend and weekdays. I have a crate available for your pet if needed. There are two dogs where I live but both are very friendly and ready to play with new friends.
About: I have been caring for animals in my community for as long as I can remember. I love all animals and have a good understanding of their behavior. I am dependable and trustworthy, and I am open to last-minute bookings. My experience includes administering medication. I can administer oral, topical and injectable medications. I currently work Monday to Friday from approximately 11am to 7 pm Since I work close to home, I can check on your pets during my breaks. Additionally, my boyfriend can stop by to care for and walk your pets when I'm not available. I'm also available to care for your pets in the evenings and on weekends. I ensure that every animal receives the affection and attention I desire for my own pets. Your animals will be loved and kept active! I'm here to meet all your pets' needs. I would be happy to schedule a meeting to introduce myself to you and your pet before your booking start date, and I will send updates and pictures while you are away. About my place- Your furry friends will have full access to my downstairs living room. I have two cats that can be kept upstairs if necessary. The Hocking bike path is located nearby for strolls! I would be thrilled to take your dogs to the closest dog park or even just for a car ride! During house sitting- I can provide updates with pictures of food, water, and the litter box. I can also handle tasks such as watering plants, disposing of trash, collecting mail, feeding fish, and any other chores you may need assistance with.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I truly treat every pet like family. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups. I’m also a dog owner myself, so I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy and attentive. I stay active, love spending time outdoors, and always make sure pets get the exercise, love, and attention they deserve. Whether it's sticking to a feeding routine, giving medications, or just making sure your dog gets plenty of playtime, I’ve got it covered! I’m currently working part time but I’m very flexible. I can do early mornings, late nights, overnights, etc. if you need me, I’m there to take care of your pet! When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would my own. I make sure your pet sticks to their usual routine, gets lots of attention, and feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you're away.
About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for large varieties of animals, from cats and dogs to reptiles and guinea pigs, and farm animals too! I’m no specialist, but I’ve got more pets than you can count on your fingers and being there for them is my greatest joy in life! I do work-trade at a goat farm near Sunday Creek and my partner works part-time locally. I spend most of my time with pets or livestock! I am always excited to meet new dogs and cats, and would love to get to know them! When sitting in your home, I am sure to remember every little detail from meet-n-greets so that I can provide the ideal care your baby needs. I am open to and probably at the least a little bit experienced with your pets quirky must-haves, such as crating, food rituals, needing high or low energy, etc. I am always happy to spend time outdoors with dogs, and cats as well if they are harnessed and comfortable! I’ve never met a cat or dog I haven’t instantly fallen in love with!!
About: I have been an avid animal lover and caretaker for all of my life. I am the friend everybody calls when they need someone they trust to ensure their pets are properly cared for. Animals are truly my passion and I cannot wait to meet your pets! I am currently working part-time and furthering my education so I have plenty of time in my week to help you with all of your pet care needs. Every pet owner has different expectations for the care of their furry friends. I am happy to work with you to decide on a gameplan that puts both you and your pets at ease.
About: I’ve owned dogs for over 10 years now and take passion in caring for them especially seniors. As well as training them to my best abilities I ride and train horses for a living so it allows me to have some spare time through my days to be able to do what I want. I have friendly dogs but live on a farm so no fenced in areas. I would take great care of your pets in your home to whatever requirements you have for them!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 15 years of experience caring for pups of all sizes and personalities. I recently started working from home, which means I’m at a desk more than I’d like — so I’m turning my love for dogs into the perfect reason to get outside and stay active. Whether your dog needs a brisk walk or a slower stroll, I’m here to make sure they get the care, attention, and exercise they deserve. Let me help you while your pup helps me get my steps in!! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’ve grown up with dogs and have cared for them for most of my life, so tending to their needs — whether it’s a walk, a meal, or some playtime — just feels like second nature. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to step away from my desk and give pets the attention they need. Walks and check-ins are a great way for me to stay active and reset my day, so fitting pet care into my routine is not only easy — it’s something I look forward to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always treat their space and routines with respect. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, whether that’s a specific walking route, feeding schedule, or just extra belly rubs. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I pay close attention to their behavior and mood so I can adjust my care if needed. My goal is always to make your pet feel like they’re with a trusted friend while keeping your home just as you left it.
About: I grew up working at a farm. We had many dogs, cats, and barn animals as well as guinea pigs, chinchillas, rabbits, birds, and fish. Throughout my life I have shadowed multiple veterinarians, volunteered at rescues, and cared for many other people’s animals and kids! I have attended college for Equestrian Studies too. Caring for animals has always been my greatest passion and I can’t wait to put it to good use by helping you and your animal out when the time calls! Caring for animals is my passions and therefore my full time job. I work a little online from home as well but never when it is taking time away from pet care. Away from home care: In my home I usually have other animals so, if you need care outside your home your pet must be potty trained, vaccinated and good with cats and dogs. We have leads for dogs outside and a large yard. No kennels provided, if you’d like your dog in a kennel, call a boarding facility. Your animal would be staying in a clean and safe bedroom/bathroom area with 24/7 supervision as well as a comfortable bed that is changed after every pet’s stay. They will be taken outside for at least 30 minutes, 4 times a day. You will need to provide food for your pet. In Home Care: If providing in home care for your pet all services are provided from walking and playtime to feeding and training. I also give bathes and brushing. Lots of love is of course always a part of my services as well. The schedule of it is up to you! I can do drop in visits any day of the week but only house sit on the weekend (Fri-Sun). I like to make sure I have plenty of time to spend with my own animals while also serving you. *Care In My Home* If you provide a crate and want me to use it I will but I usually just have your pet hang out with me around the house - it is all pet proof as I have many cats and a dog. If your pet doesn’t like other animals they are welcome to stay in my bedroom as a safe haven. I will be sure to hang out with them lots throughout the day if they are in there. I have a large fenced in backyard and leads for dogs. They are always supervised while outside. I only serve one pet family at a time so your animals won’t be exposed to any other animals other than my own. I do not provide care in my home to cats. *Care In Your Home* I will be with your pet for at least 2 hours at a time twice a day in addition to the evening and morning (10pm-10am) full time. I can bathe, brush, train, walk, and give lots of love at no extra charge!

About: I’ve had many experiences pet sitting. I’ve watched anything from cats and dogs to farm animals! I often pet sit for my family members and neighbors. I have no problem cleaning up litter boxes, brushing, and even giving medications if needed! I’m currently in college and working part time. Right now i’m mostly available Tuesdays and Thursdays after 4. Summer is coming up so my availability will open up! I have no issue cleaning up after the pet and cleaning litter boxes. I can also ensure they have fresh water and if needed food at my visits.

She consistently ensures that my Milo is well-fed, and stays active and engaged throughout the day. I have complete peace of mind knowing my cat is in her capable hands. Kayla also maintains excellent communication. She provides regular updates, photos, and videos, so I never feel far from my kitty, even when I'm away. It's a level of transparency and dedication that truly sets her apart. In summary, I couldn't be happier with the care and attention Kayla provides. She is a animal lover, and the professionalism and commitment to the well-being of pets is truly commendable. I wholeheartedly recommend Kayla to anyone seeking top-tier care for their furry family members.”
