About: I have had dogs since I was 7. I have experience with dogs with allergies and seizure disorders. I also volunteer at an animal shelter. I have had cats for the last 13 years and care for a friend's cats when they are away. I have availability late afternoon and evenings on weekdays and am fairly flexible on the weekends. I have a dog and 2 cats of my own that are cared for daily. I would be able to drop in and feed cats or dogs as needed. I could also let dogs out into a fenced area or take on a leash if your yard is not fenced.
“We had a great experience with our drop-in visits! Communication was excellent, our dog was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. We’d absolutely book again.”
About: I'm looking forward to hearing from you. I hope I can be of service to you when you need someone to watch your pet(s). You can let me know what their day to day routine is so that I can give them the care that they need. I don't have any pets of my own at this time but over the past twenty five years that I've lived here I've had both dogs and cats and even chickens. Even though I live out here in the country I'm usually within a thirty-minute drive or less from the Cincinnati area. We can discuss more in detail when we talk or text or do our meet and greet. Thanks. Make sure your pet(s) are up to date on their flea and tick treatments. I do work during the week but I am available to care for your pet(s) all day Wenesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I enjoy taking daily walks outside and getting exercise with the dogs. We play ball and play with whatever toys you bring over while we are inside. I make sure they are safe and well cared for the entire stay. I am home all day on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. We will have plenty of time to get outdoors for walks and potty breaks. I keep the dogs on leashes while we take our walks but I also have a tie cable I can put them on so we can stay out for awhile.

I will be re-booking with her soon.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always been told I have a “way with animals.” I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs before. Whether it’s a tiny tea cup dog or a large lab with more energy that they can contain, I’ve seen it all. I’m currently a senior in high school and play club volleyball. I have a part time job but am looking to gain more experience before college. Being a pet sitter and walking fits great for me since it’s a flexible schedule. I already take care of my own dog and cat at home and would love to add more pets to that list. As an athlete I am able to match your pets energy. I’m able to run around with them and throw their toys for as long as they may need it. I’m always down to explore new places on walks in any weather.

I have experience with exotics as well. I absolutely love being around animals because they always brighten my day. I have had dogs my entire life, so I am comfortable around any dog. I would love to help take care of your animals! I’ll even add in bonus belly scratches and plenty of treats! I work full time as a vet assistant, but typically have a couple of days off throughout the week. I am hoping to take care of animals on the days I am available. Currently I am unable to host any dogs in my own household. I will only be available for walking and drop ins as of right now. I promise to always make the animals as comfortable as possible and have positive interactions. I am very respectful of client’s homes as well.
About: I’ve taken care of many different types of pets throughout my life…I’m aware that all animals are different and need special attention. I will give nothing but unconditional love to your pet! (-: Im currently working on my own interests, any time after 2pm on weekdays would be a great time for me to fulfill your pet care needs. Weekends are free too. I currently have a dog and a cat on five acres of land. My cat doesn’t go outside because of coyotes but my dog is very well behaved and will stay in our property line. Both are fed once a day and I tend to give them treats throughout the day. My dog is getting a bit older so he can’t make it on long walks like he used to but he still has his puppy energy every once in a while (:
