“Emma did such a wonderful job with drop in visits for my cats while I was out of town! One of my kitties needed extra special attention and some eye drops and she was so good with him and getting those done each visit throughout the day. She is excellent with the cats and they loved her. I highly recommend her.”

“Brad kept us informed about Jasmin with pictures and messages. She enjoyed her walks with him. We are grateful that Jasmin was able to stay at home where she is most comfortable. We will definitely ask Brad to take care of our girl should we need a sitter in the future.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 15. I have helped family members, coworkers, neighbors, and other families by feeding, walking, playing with, etc. with their dogs, including both daytime visits and overnight stays. I also have experience with fostering dogs from a shelter for the day. I would love the opportunity to help you with your dog! I am a student right now and only taking four classes this semester so I have a pretty open schedule. I am available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in the mornings before 11 and anytime after 12:30/1; and Tuesdays and Thursdays before 9, 12:30-1:30, and after 3:30. My weekends are pretty much open for anytime. I have experience dealing with multiple types of dogs (different breads and sizes) and always listen to the owners request of how things should be done.

About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, nothing brings me more joy than bonding with animals of every shape, size, and personality! I effortlessly adapt to your pet's unique personality, whether that means endless games of fetch or quiet, cozy companionship for a sweet senior. I am incredibly diligent with feeding schedules, safety, and household rules. Expect regular photo updates, boundless affection, and total peace of mind knowing your pet is in the absolute best hands! I work a hybrid schedule with 2-3 WFH days a week. This means that I can be very flexible with weekday schedules and especially open on weekends. Whether you want a weekend getaway or a weekday check-in, I am more than happy to accommodate in the Dayton area! When caring for pets in your home, my top priorities are keeping your companions safe, comfortable, and strictly adhering to their usual routines. I treat your home with the utmost care and respect—ensuring entryways are always locked, gates are secure, and living spaces stay spotless. For cat households, I'm extra vigilant about double-checking doors, windows, and litter areas, while keeping life completely stress-free for your feline friends. You can count on clear daily updates, frequent photos, and complete peace of mind knowing your home and pets are in conscientious hands.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, usually multiple at a time, all shapes and sizes. Your pup will receive top-tier, attentive care with your instructions followed to the letter. Beyond that, expect plenty of walks, play sessions, cuddles, and adventures. I genuinely love dogs and treat every pet like my own. As a student, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate almost any timing mornings, evenings, weekends, you name it. I work around your needs and will always make your pet my top priority. I have a friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends! When watching pets in your home, you can expect to come back to everything exactly as you left it, if not a little cleaner. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in grad school. Mainly took care of medium to large dogs, from puppies to 10+ years old. I have a 2 year old GSP named Miles who keeps me occupied most of the time. I work 7:30-3:30 most days during the week (regular full time job). But my weekends are usually open. I do quite a few different activities to keep my little guy occupied (and I think your pup will like them too). Activities include fetch, running, hiking, some scent work, etc. I have a 7 foot tall vinyl fence that my little guys loves to play in. I mostly keep hard chew toys around and plenty of treats.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my teens, and my family has always had them. I now have my own 8 year old medium sized Costa Rican mutt who loves to play, and a newly acquired 1 year old pup we found on the street. I dogsat frequently in the South Park neighborhood while in grad school, and really enjoyed it! Animals (especially dogs) are one of the greatest joys in life, in my opinion. :) I’m a big proponent of sending lots of pics and updates to the owner. I’m available for dog walking in the early mornings and after work, and all weekends. I work remotely and can make most mid-day visits work as well! I always make sure doors and fences are securely locked. I’m also always checking to make sure there isn’t anything potentially dangerous within reach of the animals (things left on the edge of a counter, for example.)

About: I have a huge heart for animals and love to tend to their needs. I have experience with cats and dogs as well as exotics. I make my own schedule so it would be very easy to fit pet sitting into my weekly routine. I can be available most often. My personal animals are spoiled rotten. I believe in treating another person’s fur baby the same as my own, with attentive love and care and pets. Lots of walks and treats.

About: I’ve grown up with a plethora of animals. I’ve wanted to volunteer at the humane society since i was young. I worked at pet land as a kennel tech for roughly 6 months and owned ferrets, birds, cats, and dogs. I’m currently a senior in high school saving up for college: I get out early from school and entirely free from weekends. During the week evening visits are all i’d be available for. Weekends whenever is needed. I have experienced with all kinds of animals. Troublesome dogs to cats, even ferrets and birds. So any accommodation of worry that you need i can handle.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and am often trusted by friends and family to watch and care for theirs! Growing up we had all breeds — from goldendoodles to pitbulls! I work 100% remotely as a marketing specialist. I am able to do visits in the morning before I log on to work and in the evenings after 5pm. Daytime visits will vary based on how many meetings I have. I am more than happy to feed, cuddle, walk, and play with your pups - whatever you need! Please let me know of your pet’s favorite toys so I know which to grab when I stop by!

She has made friends with both of my scaredy cats! One actually accepts treats from her. The other finally made an appearance on the last day. She has been working toward this since she started looking after my cats last year. Anne also took care of my two rabbits who are incredibly messy. They also accepted pets from her.

Britany was great! She took good care of our cat including extra TLC which is comforting since he’s use to our companionship pretty much 24/7. She was very conscientious, timely, and a great communicator with detailed notes everyday. Thank you so much for sharing pictures of our boy daily.

Absolutely the best. Went above and beyond. Arrived at agreed times. Two walks per day. Each one a really nice length. Spent at least an hour at each visit. Even took a sizable Amazon delivery off porch (wasn’t supposed to arrive until we got home). Would highly recommend. We will definitely have Bradley watch our Sage (almost 8 year old lab) again!

What a relief to go on vacation and have Erin and Anthony watching our dog! They were always incredibly punctual and provided multiple photos with each drop-in. Erin is not afraid to text with clarifying questions instead of just assuming, which is great when our dog has medications managing a condition. Best dog sitters around!

Alyson did an amazing job taking care of our two cats, Davinci and Snickers, while I was traveling for work. She communicated consistently and sent pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She made sure they were fed, their litter box was clean, and they always had fresh water in their fountain. She also brought in my mail and spent time playing with them. I’m very grateful for the excellent care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!

Shaelyn is amazing. My dog is “not great” with new people but she has gone out of her way to establish a great relationship with him. She has helped us learn how to support his behavior and he has been happier since meeting her. On the human end, it is a delight to have her stop in and I literally think I would be content to hire her just to visit me as she is a nice person to have drop in on a day. She is willing to engage my child who always looks forward to seeing her also. When in went away for a week it really made my time smooch better knowing I didn’t have to worry about the dog and cats at all because I had full faith she would take better care of than than I do. So kind and trustworthy- couldn’t recommend more as a pet-sitter or as a person!
