About: Hi! My name is Eliyana, and I’m passionate about providing dependable, loving care for every pet I meet. Along with caring for my own three dogs, I’ve spent the past several months consistently dog walking and house sitting for repeat clients, which has helped me build strong relationships with both pets and owners. I also have previous experience working at a dog boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calmer routine, I’m confident in adapting to their individual needs and making them feel comfortable and safe. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive, and I always provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for just like they would with family. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry best friend! 🐶💛 I have a very flexible schedule working from home, allowing me to take great care of your companion! I love being active & spending time outdoors! When in a client's home, I follow what the owner is/isn't comfortable with me doing! I want to make sure that you know I work within the owner's best judgement and will try to stick as close to your pet's normal routine as I can!

About: I’ve had both cats and dogs my entire life. At the moment, I have 5 cats and 3 dogs, all very different from each other. I go and volunteer my time at my local Humane Society often, loving, brushing, and socializing them. I’ve dog sat family’s and neighbors’s dogs before and never had any issues. I am also good with big dogs, as I’ve had Newfoundlands in the past and currently have a Burmese Mountain dog now. I also have experience with young and elderly pets, I currently have some very old cats. I typically work 6pm-10pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, sometimes Saturdays. I prefer working in the morning, as I typically get up early to start my day. I will do whatever is needed for animals to be happy. I have both cats and dogs, some who play and some who don’t, so I just do whatever is needed to make the animals feel comfortable.

“Crystal did an amazing job watching my fur babies while I was away! We loved the pics she sent us and all the details she gave us about how they were doing! We will definitely use Crystal’s services in the future again!”

About: I have cared for cats and many different breads of dogs over the past several years. Not only will I provide quality care for your pet(s), but I will love them as if they were my own. My availability to care for your pets in your home is flexible. I am open to daytime, evening, or overnight hours. I am also available for extended time periods while you are away. I will come to your home to care for your pet(s), which will allow them to remain in the comfort, safety and security of their familiar environment.

About: I've taken care of many different dogs since I was a kid. Family friends, coworkers, and family have relied on me to feed, walk, and play with their dogs. I am a recent college graduate so I have a very open and flexible schedule. I am more than willing to adjust my plans to ensure your pets always have the care they need! I have cared for many different pets with all sorts of medical and behavioral needs. Whether your pets needs round the clock care or just a nice long walk while you're at work I will make sure they get what they need.

About: First of all, dogs are my absolute passion and believe they are not just pets, but truly are family! I have two (quirky) rescue dogs of my own, Joey and Coco. Our family has fostered dogs for a local rescue, so I am comfortable with dogs that may have unique quirks. I am passionate about ensuring pets are cared for in the way THEY need. If that's a nice long walk, great! If that's a game of intense fetch, awesome! Maybe it's just cuddles on the couch...also great! I would love to be able to spend time with your furry friend when you are not able, because again, they are family and deserve top notch care. I hope to meet you and your furry fam soon! Right now, my evenings are open (6:15-9 pm) and my weekends are completely open when I am in town! I am definitely flexible on weekends. I am a homebody! We live in Elida after living in Cincinnati for 10 years! I am not currently accepting dogs to stay at our home due to anxiety in my own pups with new pups in their space. However, I will ensure your pup is safe and well cared for in your own home for our visits! I, myself, have an escape artist, so outdoor play is always highly supervised, as is the opening and closing of doors. Rest assured your pup will be safe and well cared for in my care!

About: Hi! My name is Katie, and I work full-time as a veterinary assistant. Caring for animals is both my career and my passion. Through my experience in veterinary medicine, I am comfortable working with pets of all ages, including seniors, puppies and kittens, and pets with special needs. I have experience administering medications, monitoring for signs of illness, and helping anxious or nervous pets feel comfortable and safe. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, playtime and exercise, medication administration, or extra patience and attention while you’re away, I’m committed to providing reliable, compassionate care and keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. I work full-time on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. On those days, I am available for pet care visits before 7:00 AM and after 6:00 PM. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help reduce stress while their owners are away. I ensure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes or potty breaks, and plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort based on each pet’s personality and needs. With my veterinary assistant experience, I am comfortable providing additional care such as administering oral medications, monitoring pets for any changes in behavior or health, and giving extra support to senior or anxious pets. I also offer services including dog walking, nail trims, and bathing when needed. My goal is always to keep pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind with reliable updates and communication throughout each visit.

About: Hey Pet Parents! My name is Juliana and I hold a lot of significant experience in caring for pets! First off, I am a full time student at Ohio Northern University where I currently am apart of the Polar Paws program as a Secondary Trainer. This program allows college students to care for and train future service dogs. As a secondary trainer, I would work with various dogs on campus by training and sitting them while their primary caretaker is busy. Prior to university, I volunteered at the Van Wert County Humane Society where I worked with cats and dogs of all ages and all breeds. This consisted of walking the dogs, cleaning cages, cleaning litter boxes, playing with the animals, etc. Currently I am available anytime during the day and anytime of the week, until I update my availability when I need to go back to campus. I care for pets as if they are children. They need attention, respect, and when being babysat, a good time! That being said, in my own home they have access to their own food, water, play area, and have set potty breaks. In a clients home, the same will apply. Any alternative toys, medications, and food can be used most definitely if requested by client. Always a clean and tidy environment before and after.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 4 when I got my first dog. I currently have two cats and would love a dog but my schedule won't provide me enough time to take proper care of one. I am great with training puppies and giving medications. I’m currently a Preschool Intervention Specialist and have my own special education preschool classroom through Lima City Schools. I currently teach August-May. My availability mainly opens up during the summer but love to help out during the school year around my teaching contract. I look forward to working with you! I am currently off for the summer so I can attend to pet care as much or as little as you need. During the school year as long as your schedule works around my teaching contract, I will be able to help you out as much as I can! I have plenty of experience with small, medium, and big dogs. I would prefer to come to you but in the need to have your pet at my house, I am able to crate dogs as needed at my home as my house has an extra room. Plus my cats are very friendly or just stay to themselves so your animals will be in great care.

“Our first time using Rover and Kim and we are pleased. She kept in touch with us and updated us with pics. The boys did well with her. Will be repeat customers.”

About: I went to Ohio hi-point career center for animal science and really hope to work with animals. I have dog sat multiple times for family and will always make sure your friends are being properly cared for. I am currently working at build a bear and am completely free when I’m not at work. I will usually have around 4 or 5 days a week that I work and I don’t work more than 5 or 6 hours. I’m open to caring for pets anyway that the owner wishes and will always try my best to make sure your pets are fed properly, getting the attention they need, and being taken outside when needed for dogs.

“Kaitlin did a wonderful job with our dog. I was nervous as this is the first time we’ve used her and she exceeded our expectations! She helped work on his behavior issues and kept me updated on how he was doing. I will be definitely using her anytime we go out of town!”

“Sierra watched out two dogs for the first time and we could not be happier! We received updates and pictures of our pups and felt very comfortable having her watch them! We will be using Sierra again!”
