About: I’ve worked with reactive large-breed dogs for over two years, and I’m trained in administering medications, maintaining behavior training, and handling a wide range of temperaments—from timid to high-energy. Whether your pet has scales, fins, fur, or whiskers, I’ve likely cared for one just like them! I’ve house-sat and pet-sat for dogs, cats, reptiles, aquatic pets—you name it. I take detailed instructions seriously, especially when it comes to animals who need extra patience or consistency. While I work a 9–5 weekday job, I’m fully available evenings, mornings, and weekends, and I’ll ensure your pets get plenty of attention, love, and structure when you’re away. Whether it’s letting them out in the yard in the mornings before work, or taking them for a morning walk/run. I’m capable of maintaining your pets schedules. Especially if they are used to their humans working an 8-5. I can be up early to make sure they’re good to go for the day. And spend the evenings with them as well. If exercise is needed, I’ll maintain whatever detailed schedule you leave me. The more details on your pets likes and dislikes, and routines, the better!
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals pretty much my whole life. I have a huge heart bucket for animals. All animals deserve snuggles, hugs, and sunshine. I am looking to make this my main source of income so I’m free according to YOUR schedule which makes this easier! I’m young and can take your pets for runs! My cat and I have a routine, we play a lot and play Tag and fetch with his favorite ball. I feed him 2x a day and then we sit outside from time to time. He roams the apartment and does pretty much whatever.
“Allysa did a wonderful job with our senior girl! She was responsible, caring, attentive, proactive and communicative. She did an all around amazing job! I would not hesitate to have her stay again. Thank you, Allysa!”
“Jonae is an absolute gem and so amazing with our puppy! We have a ten week old puppy with a broken leg and she took such great care of him. Not only is she great with him, but she is kind and lovely to chat with!”
“Hi, Miriam was excellent with my two huskies. She walked them frequently and kept me posted on how they were doing throughout my trip. I was impressed at our first meeting with the thoroughness of her questions.”
“Nicole does such a good job with our pup. She’s caring, attentive and puts us at ease entrusting our dog to her care. She sends periodic updates and lets us know he’s enjoying himself. We’ll definitely use again!”
About: I worked as a Veterinary Assistant for over 20 years and just recently decided to stay home with my kids full time. Pet sitting has always been something I’ve done on the side for family and friends, but now that I have more time available, I’m very excited to be able to love and care for your fur babies just like they were my own! I am currently available for daily walks and 2 potty breaks per day, and of course PLAY TIME! I also offer drop in services if you do not feel your pet needs a walk or additional exercise. I am available for any and all of your pet care needs, and with 20 yrs of previous veterinary experience, I am also comfortable giving both oral medications and injectables for diabetic patients. I love being around all animals because they provide a great sense of calm and familiarity for me. I always treat a client’s pet just as I would my own and they will receive endless love & attention while in my care. I do work part time during the week and have two young boys at home- while we are a very active family, I can usually carve out time even on work days for drop in visits or walks.
“Tami went above and beyond staying with our furbaby Max at our home for 7 days. Max does not do well in a kennel environment. He is on a routine/schedule and gets upset when things are changed. His first night without us, Tami layed on the floor and gave him belly rubs at bedtime to make him comfortable. She sent pics, videos, and kept us updated on how Max was doing. Tami gave Max his allergy medication every night. She cleaned up before we got home. Our house was cleaner when we got home then it was when we left. If Rover had more stars to give her I would. Max got to go on a couple of adventures with her. She of course asked before. There is so much more Tami did for Max. Im afraid of running out of space. Max misses her already. He absolutely loves her and so do we. Tami will forever be our choice to take care of our home and Max.... Thank you Tami!”
“Grants first introduction with my pups was wonderful. He very responsive, and easy to communicate with. I feel very comfortable knowing that we have someone we trust, and our boys enjoy. Couldn’t be more pleased. ?”
“Aimee was amazing. It was the first time leaving our pup and she gave me complete peace of mind, as I was nervous to do so! She sent me regular pics of him snuggling and playing. She took great care of him and we will definitely have her back!”
About: I just moved from Louisville, Kentucky to Cincinnati! I found myself missing my childhood dogs and the pets I took care of throughout the neighborhood. I would love to watch your furry friend! I’ve raised a puppy from a rescue, Louie, and currently am raising a very independent cat named Olive. I have experience with large and small breeds, cats, reptiles, and birds. I’m known for sending pictures and updates so you always know the status! Pets are a part of your family and I will treat them like a part of mine! References are available upon request. I work a job that allows me freedom to make my own schedule and work from home so I have bookable daytime hours I also work in theatre so if you think your pet has too much energy, I’m sure I have the energy to match :) I have an incredibly flexible schedule and am based out of my home office so I’m able to work around your busy life and give you animals the attention they deserve I always respect the space of the client who has trusted me into their home. Your pet is a part of your family and I will make sure they are cared for
About: I have cared for animals almost my entire life having both cats and dogs in my family. I worked at a doggy daycare for a year so I have experience with most breeds and temperaments. I currently work at an elementary school and have availability in the evenings. I will be fully available for multiple visits a day or house/pet sitting on June 1st until July 30th. At this time I am not caring for others’ animals in my home. While at a client’s home I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I will follow any feeding schedules given and ensure your pet has plenty of potty breaks.

Elizabeth H.
“Lizzie goes way above and beyond when she takes care of our cats while we are away. She makes sure they get individualized attention every day when they want it and hunts them down to make sure they're still in the house when they don't. She keeps them topped up on food and wet food and is prompt with the litter boxes and the random rage-vomits that happen when one cat gets mad that left her behind. Lizzie also keeps up updated with anything that might have happened while we were away or any silly antics the cats have gotten up to. She's always great at last-minute accommodations when I forget to let her know in a timely manner, too. Lizzie is the absolute best!”
