“Helped me out on Christmas Eve Was prompt, and very friendly. Uploaded photo & updated on how first meeting with Jack went. I would recommend highly.”
“Tiffany came through on a holiday weekend for me when I really needed a dog walker. My dog enjoyed his walk and she is coming back to walk him again this evening. Texas is a very large dog at 180 and she did perfect with him.”
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life and had the joy of owning and caring for dogs, horses, cats, parrots, finches, rodents, chickens, and fish! I originally set out to be a vet tech and got some experience working in the field, but the chemicals and hospital environment was hard on my health. So I changed careers, have a full time day job, and I’m looking to help out pets and their owners in my free hours! I love dog walking and working with dogs to develop better leash manners and general behavior. I am very attentive to detail and punctual. It’s important to me to care for your animals the way you ask me to, and I will do my best to accommodate your requests within reason. I am comfortable with livestock and exotics as well. A little about me: I have a wonderful family, and we share our home with a whippet mix, two cats, a green cheek conure, a zebra finch, a betta fish, and a horse. I enjoy reading, hiking, horseback riding, archery, music, and binging tv shows with my husband and dog. I work full time so I am available earlier in the morning, and then evenings after 5. I am happy to accommodate and will do my best to work with you on schedule. I am comfortable handling all animals, including giant breed dogs. I have a number of tricks and training methods to help manage behaviors. I am reliable; if I say I will be there, I will, and I will treat your furry babies with the best care just like I do for mine.
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.
“Amber is the only person, outside of family, that we let care for our puppies. I highly recommend her for all your pet needs. She’s is the absolute sweetest person.”
“Kayla was awesome! Easy-going, quick for a meet & greet, good with the dogs, communicated efficiently. Would def book again!”
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.
“Angel was great! She came and walked my dog Huck with less than a days notice, which was very helpful!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, from a 15lbs mini golden to a 130lbs mastiff. I love taking long walks no matter the weather (as long the dog is comfortable!) and have experience with senior dogs who require a lot of love and attention, and sometimes lots of medication. If your pet had specific needs, I can certainly make sure they’re taken care of the best way they can be! I have similar experience with cats, caring for teething kittens and senior cats who need extra attention. I love cats, but I understand sometimes they take longer to warm up. I don’t mind just hanging around until they feel comfortable enough to come up to me themselves. My number one priority is making sure your pet is comfortable and cared for. I’m a full time college student who’s lived in the Dayton area my whole life, allowing me to watch pets in the area year round (I’m a rising senior at the University of Dayton). I currently have an online internship, but it’s unpaid and I don’t get a lot of work to do. I have lots of time to devote to taking care of your critters. I’m willing to stay with pets for as long as they need, whether that means overnight or just some company during the day. I’m patient with pets that are wary of strangers; I do what I can to respect their boundaries. I will always wait until they’re comfortable enough to come up to me. I have a dog at home who is very nervous around new people. Because she’s so big we have to be very careful of how we introduce her to people. She’s a high maintenance lady, that’s for sure! But she loves just having company, and I know that many pets just want to have someone to be around.
“Yolena is very thorough and reliable! She always takes great care of my dog.”
About: We’ve had dogs of all sizes in our home since I can remember. And I’ve raised a few of my own along with 2 cats I am available all week. I can check in on your pets and let them out and feed them according to your routine. I will also walk your pets. I can also board and host daily care of multiple pets. You can leave me any detailed instructions on how you’d like your pet cared for. I’ll come in and take them out into the yard to do their business, or change their pads/clean up cat litter and clean any messes they may have left. If they need to be fed I’ll give them food and water also according to your instructions. And if they need to be walked around the neighborhood or park I can do that also. When they are in my home you can bring toys, beds, or Blankets that they feel more comfortable in, but I can provide that as well. You may bring your own food that does well for their diet.
“Thank you for being the best dog walker! Louie and Archie love having you visit and it’s a huge relief knowing that they are in good hands!”
About: From family pets to volunteer work at an animal sanctuary, I have experience with nearly all breeds, sizes and temperaments of furry friends. I have previously pet sitted in others homes, dog walked, and provided basic needs including medications for others loved furry family members and I would love to do the same for you and yours! As a single mother of 2, I have found self contract work works best for our life and schedules. I am available anytime throughout the day, and on an as needed basis for inhome pet sitting, including overnights! I will care for your pet inside your home, following any rules and routines already established. I am fine with any home surveillance as I too use home surveillance and understand! I am comfortable in all environments.

About: What sets me apart is my reliability, calm energy, and experience with pets of all ages and needs—including administering medication and caring for senior animals. As a full-time military member, I’m disciplined, trustworthy, and great at following routines, which pets really respond to. I don’t just “watch” pets—I bond with them. I pay close attention to their personalities and body language so I can make them feel safe, seen, and loved. Whether it’s a shy cat, an energetic puppy, or a dog that needs meds at a certain hour, I take pride in getting it right. As a full-time military member, I have a structured schedule that allows me to plan pet care in advance. I’m available for boarding on weekends and for evening drop-ins or walks during the week after 4:30 p.m. I’m reliable, punctual, and committed to making sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for your dog or cat to feel at home. While I don’t have a yard, I take pets on regular walks and give them lots of indoor playtime and attention. I’m comfortable with crates, giving medications, and maintaining routines that help pets feel secure and cared for.

Looking to eventually take care of animals full time! This is part time for me at the moment. I will take care of your babies just as I would my own.

About: Throughout my years I have taken care of a variety of animals ranging from lizards, cats, dogs, snakes, skinks, and many more. Throughout this time with these loving animals I have learned so many valuable tools regarding pet care. Some include safe/healthy treats, handling, working with behavioral issues, knowledge regarding toxic household plants, exercise needs, and more. My goal is to provide a welcoming, safe, and fun environment for your beloved family member. I am currently a nursing student therefore, I am unavailable on Tuesdays and Thursdays due to college. However, weekdays and weekends aside from these dates I am free to provide loving care to your animals past 1pm. Regarding my yard, I live next to a residential four way stop. I possess a spacious fenced in side yard followed by an open area on the other side composed of thick trees for dogs that love to explore. If you feel your dog needs to be crated, I also have options available for this.

Autumn P.
“Autumn was an exceptionally devoted and attentive caregiver to your two cats, going above and beyond to ensure their well-being, comfort, and happiness every single day. From the moment she took on the responsibility, she treated them with the same love and care as if they were her own, always making sure they had fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, and plenty of playtime. She paid close attention to their individual personalities and needs—whether that meant giving extra cuddles to the more affectionate one or patiently engaging the more reserved cat with gentle toys and quiet companionship. Her ability to notice subtle changes in their behavior or health showed a deep understanding of animal care, and she never hesitated to communicate updates or concerns with you, ensuring peace of mind even when you were away. Autumn’s genuine affection for your cats was clear in everything she did, from keeping their routine consistent to offering them comfort during stressful times like vet visits or thunderstorms. Her presence became a source of stability and joy for them, and it’s clear that her care made a lasting, positive impact on their lives.”

“She takes extra special care of any and all animals around her. They all love her. Would recommend her any time to anyone looking for care of their pet.”
Mercy M.
“I’ve known her for quite a long while now and seen many different sides and no matter what, our dog is something she is always making sure to have cared for. She properly trained and re-nourished a very weak and vulnerable dog and turned him to a healthy, muscular, loving companion that we are always making more & more progress with. Whilst being around my cats she is still the sweetest and most loving, even usually going out of her way to buy them their favorite wet foods & treats & such. She’s an amazing, responsible, and trustworthy caregiver to animals of all types, as long as it’s an animal, she’ll love it & care for it with kindness.”
