About: Having a pet of my own with diabetes set me on a path to learn more and start a career toward helping animals that may need more care than others. I am a helper by trade and love spending time with pets so I hope I can apply my years of dedication and adoration for animals by helping take care of yours when you need assistance. I work as a general handyman and take classes toward veterinary technician and looking to help others with my spare time. Walking dogs is a passion of mine and, depending on the owner's request, can keep it local or take them to a desired park or hiking path. I walk daily on my own so a few extra paws would be good for me and the pooch! My cats are indoor/outdoor so they roam but stay close to the property. I do not leave them out alone. Inside we play a bit until they get bored, listen to music, and of course they nap...mostly they nap... When I have had dogs in the past, they get outside time to enjoy the sunshine and breeze and we're never left out in bad weather conditions. They've always had a safe and comfortable place inside the home.

About: Hii!! I’m Julia and I absolutely love animals. I grew up with dogs and spent a lot of time caring for stray cats, so being around animals has always come naturally to me. I regularly dog sit for my parents, friends, and neighbors, whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while their humans are away. I’d love to be a part of your pet’s routine and give them all the love and attention they deserve! Pictured are a couple pets I regularly look after. 🐾💛 I grew up with dogs, cared for stray cats, and these days I regularly dog sit for my parents, friends, and neighbors. I'm currently on summer break and would love to spend time with some furry walking companions! Whether it’s strolls around the neighborhood, playtime, or just being a cozy buddy, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and loved. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for both cats and dogs, and I make sure each pet feels safe and comfortable in my care. For dogs, I take them outside regularly for walks, fresh air, and playtime. I keep their routines consistent, whether it’s feeding, medication, or quiet time. For cats, I create a cozy, low-stress environment with room for litter boxes, toys, and hiding spots if they need them. I also keep plenty of space for any supplies you provide, and I always treat your pets like they’re my own — with lots of love, patience, and attention.

“Rebekah is so patient and kind with my pup. My pup is very anxious with new people but Rebekah was so gentle and patient with her that they’ve now become best friends. It makes me feel so much better during the day to know that someone who loves my pet like her own is checking on her.”

“Kayla was great to work with! From the moment we met, I knew she would be a wonderful fit to help care for my chocolate lab. Will definitely want to work with her again!”

About: I am an animal lover, and currently own 1 indoor senior kitty who is 13 years old and neutered. I live in the Springfield Township area and have a large fenced in back yard (just over half an acre) for lots of play and running. We also have two male goats on our property, but they stay in their fenced in area. Growing up, my family had cats, birds, and dogs that I helped takecare of assisting with letting them out for potty breaks, feeding, bathing, and making sure they had fresh water daily. I'm willing to watch your four legged bestie for a quick one day stay, over night, multiple days, or weeks and be sure to treat him/her as family by providing food/water for him/her, playing (including outdoor play and toys), and loving on him/her. I have open availability (weeknights and weekends) and flexibility. Your fur baby will be loved and well taken care of, and made part of our family while their visit with us. I am currently working part time hours from 8-3 Tuesday - Friday. I am available in the evenings every day of the week including any time during the weekends. We do attend church on Sundays from 10:30am-1pm. I have a huge backyard (just over half an acre) for my pawsome friends to run around and play. Your pets will be well taken care of and loved! I always keep your pawsome friends on a leash, to keep them safe!

“Always does a great job with pups and responds quickly. Definitely recommend!!”

About: With 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I have developed a strong understanding of their unique needs, personalities, and health requirements. I have successfully managed feeding schedules, grooming routines, and administered medications when necessary. My experience also includes providing companionship and stimulating playtime to ensure both physical and mental well-being. I am skilled in recognizing signs of illness or discomfort, and I am quick to respond to any medical or emergency situations. Growing up with multiple dogs, cats and horses, I understand the importance of creating a safe and comfortable environment. In my family, pets ARE family and at holiday gatherings pets frequently outnumber people! Whether it’s walking or cuddling, I am committed to making your pet feel as loved as all of ours! I am working as a nursing assistant whenever I pick up. I have plenty of time take care of animals, either to babysit them or just a visit. I live on an acre lot on a quiet, dead end street. Woods in the back and trails behind that to walk on for miles. I have a friendly 12 year old dog who loves to keep company to other pups.

“Cornelia was amazing! She took care of our cat for 6 days. We got pictures everyday which we loved. It was a good experience and we will definitely use her again.”

About: I grew up with pets, and have 2 dogs of my own now. Golden retrievers, Lido (2 years) and Vail (1 year). They are my WORLD. I am a first grade teacher on summer break, and would love to hang out with your pets! I am pretty much free all day long! I would prefer day time care but am willing to do whatever is needed! Just let me know. I have a BIG fenced in yard for the animals to run and my goldens are super friendly and love everyone and everything. I have a big crate at my house if that is needed as well.

“Bailey always does a wonderful job with my dog Oakley. I know she is well cared for when Bailey stops over. Bailey gives great updates and responds quickly. Thank you!!”

About: I have been pet sitting for about five years now. Every pet I watch I always make sure to get to know their personality and needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from puppies who need extra patience, and playtime, to older dogs who benefit from a gentler approach and a bit more comfort and attention. I’m also great when it comes to giving medications, sticking to specific routines, and handling any special instructions. Whether it’s going on a walk, managing certain needs, or just being a calming presence, I always aim to be someone both pets and their owners can fully trust. I’m currently working part time. I work four days a week for five hour shifts so I have plenty of time to tend to your pets needs and make sure they’re getting the care they deserve. Outside of work I’m mostly home and have a lot of free time throughout my days. When I care for pets, whether it’s in my home or a client’s. I do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home. I always stick to their usual routines and follow any instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding, walks, or playtime. I’m used to giving daily medication too. My own family dog takes an allergy pill every day, so I understand how important it is to stay on schedule. One of the dogs I regularly sit for also needs medication before bed, and I always make sure it’s given.

“Lilly cared for Buca in every way I asked. She made sure I had photos of Buca walking and eating her dinner which I appreciate. I appreciate her attention and care.”

About: Welcome to my page! The most important thing you need to know about me is that I love animals (sometimes more than people). Nothing makes me happier than coming home after a long day and being greeted by my babies or cuddling with them in bed. I currently have four dogs, and while it can get chaotic, I love every second of it. I have lived with dogs since birth and have enjoyed witnessing the unique personalities of each of our pets. That is why I love meeting new animals - each one has a new personality that I always find adorable. Each different temperament of our pets has taught me valuable lessons that have shaped me into the passionate pet caregiver I am today. I have a heart of empathy that I would love to extend to your babies by having the opportunity to take care of them! While I may have sold you on my love for dogs, I have not yet touched on the responsibilities that come with professional care. In my house, my mom and I take care of our four dogs together. We share the daily duties of feeding, letting them outside multiple times a day, taking them for a daily 15 to 30-minute walk in our yard, and making sure they have plenty of time outside to ease stress and anxiety by getting their energy out. Additionally, I have experience with senior dog care as our 11-year-old golden retriever gets frequent hotspots that need attended to as well as needs Gabapentin given for her arthritis. One of our other dogs is an American Pitbull terrier, Australian Cattle Dog, and Great Pyrenees mixed breed. As you can probably imagine, she is highly energetic and has a strong prey-drive. We have her trained on a stim collar that is controlled by a remote, so basically what I'm trying to say is I have experience with the wild child as well! All of these specifics aside, I have been pet sitting for three years now and thoroughly enjoy it. As a nursing student, responsibility, communication, caregiving, timeliness, and integrity come naturally to me. I would love nothing more than to meet you and your pets and share my experience with you all! Currently, I am a nursing student and work PRN as a Clinical Technician in the MICU and a Nursing Student Tech in the ER. Because I work PRN, I do not schedule any shifts more than two-weeks in advance to allow a clear schedule for possible bookings. I attend Bryant & Stratton College in Parma and currently attend classes that are subject to change with each semester. I commute about an hour to each of those locations from my home, so driving is not an issue for me. You can always ask for more specifics in the chat or during our meet and greet. As a former college student-athlete, time-management has become my forte. I keep a detailed and organized schedule to ensure that when I take a job, your pets become my priority. Communication is crucial to maintain safety and trust while I stay or visit your home. I ask that my clients let me know ahead of time the security measures taken on a daily basis. I do this not only to protect myself, but also to maintain your home's security so your time away is spent without anxiety. I know it can be hard or even weird to allow a stranger in your home so feel free to ask any questions.

About: I've grown up with dogs all of my life. I adopt from our local rescues. My daughter and I currently has 3 fur girls, Maddie, Mochi and Micci. We lost my senior citizen Boudreaux in 2024. He would have been 17 in October, 2024. Our seniors deserve the most gentle care, love and LOTS of patience. My parents also have 4 White American Eskimos that I care for often in addition to my own. I work full time for a hospital Monday through Friday until 4:30pm. I love to go for walks, crochet and cook as well. As a single parent, I was seeking an opportunity for supplemental income and decided to go with what I know and love. DOGS! Thank you for considering me. I would love to meet and care for your family pets. I work until 4:30PM during the week. Tuesday through Friday I can be available for a drop in or walk after 5pm. The weekend times can vary. I would need a few days notice to ensure I have availability on the calendar. For pet walking, they will always have a leash with collar or harness on. I will take water with us during the walk for your pet as well as potty bags to ensure we remain sanitary. For drop-ins - all pets will get an appropriate amount of time for potty breaks, play time and of course extra cuddles and belly rubs. I will ensure they have enough fresh water (and food, if applicable) available.

“I was so nervous about leaving my cats when I went on vacation, but Sarah was absolutely wonderfully! She responded quickly to my request for her services and was very polite and professional. She took great care of my furbabies and I will definitely use her services again in the future! Thanks again Sarah! Leia and Sami thank you too ?”
