Pet Sitting in Dayton

“Michelle did an excellent job taking care of my dogs. She was reliable and caring, and I highly recommend her services. Notably, she went above and beyond when she noticed my older dog had developed a sore that required a vet visit. I truly appreciate Michelle for taking him to the vet and ensuring he received the necessary care. Having her do the drop-in visits was a much better option for my dogs compared to boarding. We will definitely use her services again.”

“Brittany was great! Drop- in visits worked out well for us and it was such a relief to hear her updates and come back to find our three large dogs safe and sound when we returned. We would definitely have her keep an eye on them in the future.”

About: We are excited to be back watching dogs after maternity leave. We have always had dogs growing up and quickly got our own once married. He is 7 years old and we love going on long hikes, to the lake, and settling down for some evening snuggles! We have two little girls who are obsessed with dogs and ready to play! We have watched dogs through Rover for 3 years now and absolutely love the experience! We are currently a stay at home mom/ remote workers so I would be home with the pet all day except for a few hours at a time if we go to run errands. Your dog will be in the home with us like our own pet! We only kennel if that is the dogs normal home routine Our yard is currently only fenced with a temporary 4 foot fence as we have just built our home so We can currently only take dogs who are safe being let out to the bathroom and to have supervised play time in that setting.

About: I have had a dog to take care of my whole life! I even worked a vet clinic for a while until I got pregnant and had to stop working to take care of my baby. I have also cared for neighbors dogs in the past in their homes and some had medical needs such as pills every day :) I am a stay at home mom, so I am always home unless of course there are groceries to buy and errends to run. But I have a dog room that would keep your pets and mine safe until I return. All I ask is that if you are picking up or dropping off on Sundays that it be before 11am or after 4pm. 😃 I have a big yard the dogs can play in and a dog room that I can bring them into at night. I am available to play with them at any time and take care of their needs whatever they may be.

About: I have grown up with many animals in my lifetime from a very young age! I love being able to play and take care of any need they may have! I have taken care of puppies and older dogs with needs. My routine is very flexible so it’s not a problem fitting appointments around in my day for any amount of time! I look forward to meeting so many furry friends! I have two fur babies of my own who are the best friends a girl could ask for! I have watched many of my neighbors dogs growing up and now as they leave on vacations, they will be in great hands waiting for their best friends to get back!

About: Hi, I'm Cassie! I'm so excited to begin this journey with you and your furry family member. As a lifelong dog lover, I truly believe every dog deserves love, respect, and quality care—and I treat each dog as if they were my own. With many years of experience, I offer dependable services including: Dog walking Feeding and administering medication Bathing and basic grooming Dog sitting (short-term or extended) Clean-up care Support with training and behavior I’ve worked with dogs of all energy levels and temperaments. Whether your pup needs a calm cuddle session or a high-energy playtime, I tailor activities to meet their unique needs. I also value ongoing learning. Training and structure are important to me, and I understand how vital it is to balance discipline with compassion. I'm here to help your dog feel safe, engaged, and well-cared for. I’d love to connect and learn more about your dog. Let’s chat soon! I currently work full-time Monday through Friday, but my flexible schedule—combining remote and on-site work—allows me to provide dependable care for your dog throughout the week. Your pet’s needs are important to me, and I’m committed to making sure they’re never left without care for too long. The longest your dog would ever be alone is approximately 6 hours at a time, and I always make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and settled before I step out. I’m located on a half-acre lot that offers plenty of room for your dog to run, sniff, and explore. While the yard is not fenced, your dog will never be left unattended. I’m always outside with them or have them securely attached to a long lead, giving them the freedom to roam safely. I make sure your pup has plenty of shade, fresh water, and anything else they need to stay comfortable and happy while outdoors. Whether they’re high-energy or just want to sunbathe, they’ll have a safe and enjoyable space to do it. When it’s time to rest, I offer both a large and a medium crate, depending on your dog’s needs. I'm happy to crate your pet if that’s part of their routine, or they’re welcome to sleep openly in our home with us—whatever helps them feel most at ease. I share my home with one medium-sized, well-behaved dog who loves meeting new canine friends. He’s friendly, gentle, and enjoys having buddies to play or relax with. I also have an outdoor cat who mostly keeps to herself and doesn’t typically interact with visiting pets. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first, and I’ll make sure any introductions are slow, supervised, and stress-free. If I’m providing drop in visits for your pet in your home, you can count on me to provide daily walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine closely and provide any additional care or accommodations you or your pet may need. My goal is to make their time away from you feel as normal and stress-free as possible.

About: I’ve had my rescued dog for 8 years and a rescued cat for 3 years. I love animals and treat my fur babies like family with all my love and company. I currently work from home, so I have lots of flexibilities to accommodate your fur family. I'm usually home with my pets except a few hours at a time to run errands. I have a medium sized dog and a cat at home. They are friendly to new friends. The backyard is unfenced, my dog enjoys running and sniffing around. Your fur-baby will have potty breaks in the backyard supervised and will have so much play time there.

“Catherine is great helper for our family. A few days before leaving she came by our home so I can give her a quick introduction to the cats and how to feed them. In addition I had to give her extra instructions as to when to let our contractor who needed to work inside the house while I was gone. She updated us with texts as to how the cats were doing. I liked that. I really appreciate Catherine and will definitely hire her again.”

About: I’ve probably been taking care of dogs longer than 8 years! I’ve dog sat multiple dogs in my home for friends and family and also just looked after some while I’ve babysat various families children! I’m doing job searching right now for the summer so I’m pretty open to whenever you need for the most part! Just looking to get a few part time jobs for the summer! I have a fenced in backyard, plenty of space for your pups to play free. We have 2 cats but they do their own thing and won’t be a problem. They don’t like dogs but they won’t hurt them haha they just stay away. I make sure that your pups will always have the best care and attention! I love playing fetch the most!

About: I grew up with 3 border collies in my home, so I’ve been helping with pet care for as long as I can remember. My husband and I adopted Penny, our sweet Australian Shepherd, almost two years ago and we have loved every second. I have never met a dog I didn’t love. I have often been told I have a knack for comforting anxious dogs. I work from home, so my schedule is fairly flexible during work hours. I often take my dog on a walk before work and in the evening after work. I’m flexible to leave work as needed and take dogs out as often as needed. I have a friendly Australian who loves to play to keep your dog(s) company. My fur baby no longer uses her crate, so we have a crate that can be used for your dog when they visit if they’d like it. My husband is home in the evening after work to help out with pets care.

About: I’ve had the pleasure of being a dog hiker for over 150 dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—some of them during overnight stays or day visits as well. My background in hiking with dogs has taught me how to build quick trust, understand different energy levels, and create a calm, safe environment—whether we’re out on a walk or curled up at home. I treat every dog like they’re my own—whether we’re exploring a trail, walking through the neighborhood, or just hanging out at home. I’m reliable, calm, and genuinely love spending time with animals. You can count on me to show up, stay in tune with your pet’s needs, and communicate clearly with you. Let me know how I can help give your dog some adventure, love, and attention while you’re away! I hike dogs for a living so I can usually create my own schedule so I am totally willing to work with your preferences and needs. I always make sure every dog gets adequate exercise and outside time. I am good at reading body language and reading what their needs and comfort levels are.
