“Bradley brings my packages inside and my almost 2yr old golden always seems well exercised and tired when I come home from worn!! Highly recommend Bradley!”


About: Since I was in kindergarten I knew I wanted to pursue taking care of all animals. As I prepare for veterinary school, I love the opportunity to learn all new types of animals. I’ve been sitting and walking all ages of dogs for years now and would love to add your fur baby to my experience! I’m currently focusing on sitting and caring for animals around the Dayton area. I will have availability tons of time for sittings, walks, and hopefully soon boardings!! While I can’t say I can board dogs at the moment, that should soon hopefully change. In terms of coming to a client’s house I always try to be very mindful and caring towards their home, cleaning up any mess made by me or the pets along the way!

“Leesa is wonderful! She is dependable and extremely knowledgeable about dogs. My puppy, Sebastian loves her!”


“Friendly, professional, and reliable. Chloe, you are a natural, and there are few people I could imagine so quickly trusting with the extra care and attention that Lola needs. Thank you!”


“Alanis is great!”


About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m patient and gentle, and I know how to tailor care to your pet’s unique needs. Whether it's giving meds, keeping up with energetic walks, or offering lots of cuddles, I’ve got it covered. I also have experience with crate training and basic commands, and I always treat pets like family. I’m reliable and communicative, and I truly love what I do! I’m a student at UD with online classes this summer, which gives me a super flexible schedule and plenty of free time. I’ll be available all summer for walks, drop-ins, playtime, or overnight stays. Since my classes are remote, I can easily plan my day around your pet’s routine and give them the attention and care they deserve. I have two friendly goldendoodles of my own (Henry and Milo), so I’m very used to providing loving, attentive care every day. I’ve also taken care of my neighbors’ dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets feel secure and happy. I treat every animal like part of the family and always follow the routine that works best for them.

About: I’ve loved and cared for a variety of animals throughout my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, a parakeet, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, fish, a bearded dragon, and a red tail boa. I LOVE animals. When I was a kid I would even spend my weekends at our local pet shop holding and playing with their animals. I am a mother of two teenagers, and have been a small business owner, so I am extremely responsible, reliable, caring, attentive to detail, and have the skills to do anything necessary to care for your pets. I am available most of the time, and my time is flexible. I recently sold my half of my small business and am now taking some time for myself (that I want to fill with animals!), so I am almost always available and flexible. We have a fenced in yard, but we also live in a beautiful historic neighborhood and love taking walks around the neighborhood and to the park as often as possible.

“Lucy loves Michelle! Michelle is professional, and treats Lucy with great care and compassion. She loves our dog as if she were her own. I know I can trust any of my pets with Michelle. She has so much great experience and she really knows how to care for animals. ❤️ She’s the best walker/sitter we’ve ever had!”


About: I grew up surrounded by 3 dogs, and a cat! From an early age, I learned the importance of compassion, patience, and the unique care each type of pet needs. I make sure every animal I care for feels loved, safe, and a little spoiled! Whether it’s extra treats, belly rubs, or quiet cuddle time, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs and personality. You can trust me to treat your furry friend like one of my own. 💕🐶🐱 I am a student home for the summer who works part time during the school year. I am pretty free and flexible and am willing to work with your schedule. I take the dogs on a walk to use the bathroom every 4-6hours and feed the dogs twice a day or more depending on the clients request. I will check the water multiple times throughout the day to make sure there is clean and fresh water for the dogs. I will play and keep the dogs entertained so they don’t get antsy or anxious because there owner isn’t home.

About: I have owned a Goldendoodle for 6 years and adore him and everything to do with dogs. I love caring for dogs by playing and spending quality time with them. I think every dog only needs some playful attention and plenty of cuddles to keep them happy. I am currently working part-time, so will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I have a very flexible schedule that can be adjusted when needed. Taking care of pets is one of my favorite hobbies! :) I have a large fenced-in yard for your pet to run around in, as well as one dog to keep them company! I am very well equipped to take a dog for a walk, and care for your pet in your home such as feeding and keeping them company!

“We reached out to Karoline for reoccurring dog walks and they are simply wonderful. They are responsive, personable, kind, flexible and trustworthy. Our pup was immediately comfortable with Karoline the moment they walked through the door. They are working with Zoe to be less distracted by squirrels and critters on their walks and we also receive updates and adorable photos after their adventures. They are one of the most patience and punctual humans you will meet ... I highly recommend Karoline, and trust her completely with our fur baby.”


About: I've always loved animals, ever since my childhood. I have experience with both dogs and cats. My experience with cats even includes giving medicine, which can be a challenging task for most. I have extremely open availability to care for pets, as I am currently between jobs. I've decided to take some time away from my corporate path and enjoy simpler things that bring me joy. Animals are one of those things! I pay careful attention to every animal in order to notice their unique needs. All pets have different personalities and I make sure to interact with each pet in a way that works best for them.

“Haley was on time and my pup came back happily tired. She handled his big puppy excitement well getting him to calm down very quickly. Will definitely book again!”


“Melanie did a great job walking Winston, our English bulldog. She was always on schedule and made sure Winston got to sniff all of his favorite things. Really appreciated all of the prompt communication as well including daily photos!”


About: I grew up in a house with dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of puppies, older dogs, neighbors’ dogs, and love going on walks. I would take care of your pet like it was my own.

If I am at work, my family will usually be home to let them out, feed them, etc. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly miniature golden retriever (~70lbs) to keep your dog company! I can also crate your dog if needed and give it its own space for feeding, relaxing, or etc.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. I currently have 4 furbabies with my partner. I have 4 years of fostering experience as well.

I have a very flexible schedule and have plenty of availability to spend time with and walk your pets. I currently only work evenings, and I have plenty of weekday and weekend availability!

9. Ella P.
“I can't express enough how thankful I am for the incredible care my dog, Max, received from Ella! From dog walking to potty breaks and overnight sitting, Ella has gone above and beyond in every aspect. It's clear that she has a true love for animals and understands their needs. Max has always been a bit anxious around new people, but Ella took the time to build trust, and now Max looks forward to every visit. The walks were always on time, and I was reassured knowing Max was getting both the exercise and attention he needed. When it came time for overnight sitting, I couldn't have asked for more. Our home was well taken care of, and we received regular updates and photos that helped us feel connected. It was like we never left! Ella truly treats Max like her own, and we always return to a happy, healthy pup. I highly recommend Ella to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving care for their pets. It’s rare to find someone who goes the extra mile, but Ella does just that — with care, patience, and genuine kindness.”
