“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”

“Elisa always takes good care of our cat. She is reliable, dependable, and our cat loves her. Very thankful for all the times she’s has watched our cat when we are out of town.”
“Tatum was awesome. She took the best care of my dogs (5 of them) and my house. Kept me informed of everything including coyotes who broke through the fence and snowfall we had, shoveled a path for our big boy to do his business, Swept the floors and took out trash. She even brought in the mail. We will definitely use her again.”

“Valerie was the best pet sitter we have had. She took great care of our 3 dogs and cat. Usually when we get back they are so relieved for us to be home but I think they missed Valerie which makes me happy. I would highly recommend her. Our dogs can be at times a little much and a little overwhelming, but she took care of them great.”

“Alana did a great job. My greyhounds can be intimidating at 90 and 120 lbs. but she handled them beautifully. No problems even with storms. She gave lots of updates. No problems staying at the house. Definitely will call her again!”

“Tyler was amazing! The pups didn’t seem to miss us at all. She was attentive and provided photos frequently without any prompt. Will definitely be using her again for our pups.”

About: With hands-on experiences as a veterinary surgical technician and kennel technician, plus over 10 years as a devoted multi-cat owner (including caring for a kidney-disease cat), I can provide compassionate, knowledgeable, and reliable care for both dogs and cats—treating every pet like family. I am currently a student at Cedarville University studying to be come a physician assistant. All I do is sit down and study every day, and if it were not for my cats, I would not be moving around the house. The pets keep my routine straight; they wake me up on time, check on them routinely, and also make sure i set time aside for them to decompress and love on them. My daily and weekend routine starts with them and ends with them. I want to do the same for your pets too. I am flexible with whatever schedule you may give me - thankfully I do not have any obligation other than studying and make the most of my time. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and love - focusing on their routines, health needs, and comfort. Whether feeding, walking, playing, or administering medications, I prioritize safety, trust, and individualized attention so each pet feels secure and cared for like family.
“I give Ben an A++. I couldn’t have asked for a better new buddy and caregiver for my fur babies. Ben’s calm and welcoming presence is exactly what my dog needed while I was away. I feel so much better knowing they are just as cared for and loved as when I am home.”

“Kaiden did great with our Roxie (Boxer Tween) She is very selective and warmed upto him very fast. He stayed in our home and did a good job caring for that too. We have winter travels approaching and our looking forward to Kaiden's services again. Knowing our pup and home our in good hands with him will bring us peace of mind..... again. We highly recommend booking Kaiden!”

“We are so thankful for Kathy and Brad taking care of our babies over the Christmas holiday. I trusted that they were in caring hands. They even got a visit from “Santa” in costume and we got a picture. It made our day on Christmas!”
About: I’ve been a proud dog owner for 13 years and have cared for 3 amazing dogs of my own. I truly love spending time with dogs — whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, or just giving them all the cuddles they want! I understand how important it is to feel confident your pet is safe and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like family and pay close attention to their unique needs and routines. I’m reliable, patient, and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind. Whether your pup needs playtime, snuggles, or a calm environment, I’m here to help! I work full time on weekdays but I’m off all weekends and available some evenings, so I can give your pet plenty of attention and care during that time. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy at all times. You’ll always be updated, so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands.
About: I have had dogs at home my whole childhood, where I had my first exposure to taking care of them. I have been partially responsible for my childhood dog's care for about 7 years. More recently, I have been a trainer for future service dogs through the organization 4 Paws for Ability. I have had formal training on how to care for and do training with puppies, adult dogs, and service dogs. My professional experience in taking care of dogs started about 2 years ago. For my first year of this I had full time responsibility of a service dog in training named Curry. I trained Curry from 12 weeks old to 1 year old, when he was accepted into the Advanced Training program at the 4 Paws facility! Any dog that I care for is properly supervised to ensure their safety and happiness. If you wish, I also training exercises while your dog is in my home. I am currently in medical school at wright state and usually have class for 3-5 hours on weekdays. I am otherwise flexible and available on some weekends. I will care for your pet by giving them lots of attention and snuggles. I will make sure that all of the dog's needs are met and take them for walks according to their energy levels.
“Highly recommend Amy! Plenty of pictures & videos! Great communication! Dogs were happy & healthy! The house was even clean when we returned! Couldn’t ask for a better a sitter for my pups! Will be using Amy again!”

“Daniel did a great job taking care of my dog. He provided plenty of updates and it was great to know she was in good hands. Definitely will be rebooking in the future!!”

“Aliyah was the best dog sitter we’ve ever had and we will be asking her back in the future. She communicated quickly and professionally right off the bat. She was very loving with our dogs and sent pictures and videos while we were away. She has a sincere and peaceful demeanor that helped our minds stay at ease while we traveled far from home! I highly recommend her services.”

“Cassie was great with my girls! A previously booked sitter had to cancel short notice; Cassie was super flexible, arranged a meet and greet the day before I left and was there right on time. I got lots of pictures and commentary throughout my trip; I arrived home to a neat house and happy fur-babies. Can’t recommend her highly enough.”
