House Sitting in Franklin Park, Toledo, OH

“Rebecca went above and beyond taking care of my small zoo while I was away visiting family. She has so much experience with so many different types of animals. Lots of interesting stories. She is a very kind, compassionate and intelligent person. I have 3 dogs ,3 cats and freshwater aquariums that she was able to take care without skipping a beat with their daily routines. I have some challenging personalities in my pack, and she handled them with ease. She provided updates with beautiful pictures while she stayed in my home. She gave me peace of mind that my crew was in good hands so I could focus on my family during a difficult time. Coming home to happy wagging tails and fins, and a clean home was the cherry on top. 10 out of 10 recommend. I will certainly book with her again in the future and refer her to anyone who is looking for a dependable experienced sitter.”

“Dawn did a great job taking care of our dog Lui. She kept us updated with pics and texts. She stayed with him at our house abd our house was in perfect condition when we returned . It was so nice coming home to a happy dog and clean house! Would definitely use her again.”

“Sadie was amazing dog sitter for my super anxious dog, Murphy. I was concerned about leaving her for the night. Sadie did an incredible job taking care of Murphy, sending me frequent updates and pictures. She made my evening/night go smoothly at ease. I would definitely recommend Sadie for dog sitting. She is incredible, reliable and very caring. I will hire her again whenever I need one in the future. Big kudos to Sadie!!!”

“Bobbie went over and above with all my pets. Oliver is blind and still acts like a puppy so he can be a handful but Bobbie and her family treated him like one i or f their own. I could tell that he was super comfortable in their care. She took the best possible care of Dottie and Toby as well. Bobbie was awesome with the daily pics and updates and was very flexible with our vacation schedule. We’ll be using her on our next vacation for sure.”

“Thanks again to Cody for a repeat job well done! He takes the stress out of being a busy dog-parent. It was easy to coordinate and communicate, and the dogs were obviously happy to see him when we met up to pass along the house key. He even sent me some sweet pictures of playtime with my "grumpy old man" dog, having won him over with a tennis ball in the backyard. Cody was obviously very courteous and considerate with the house too. An asset to DogVacay and your local petsitting community. =)”

“Jessica is our go-to pet caregiver! She’s responsible, reliable, and trustworthy. My dogs love her and most importantly she gives her love back to them. I highly recommend her!”

“Stephanie is such an animal lover! She helps me take care of my dog when I am working and I know I don't have to worry about him when she is around. Stephanie is always drawn to animals when she sees them. She definitely treats all dogs as her own!”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats and have always had a special bond with the animals I've gotten to care for. I am patient, calming, and consistent. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule working remotely. I am centrally located and spend lots of time keeping your pet happy and safe until you return.

“I have known Amelia for over 20 years and one thing that I have learned about her is her love of animals. She has many herself and treats them like her own children! I have seen her interact with her own pets and she is amazing with them. She has also watched my dogs and I highly trust them in her care and know if they are with her that they will be well taken care of! Highly recommend!!”

About: I worked at a pet care facility, my job responsibility was to watch and observe dogs in play groups like dogs who come for doggy day camp or dog in the play and stay group who come to board over the night or couple days. I also, work with dogs that do not get along with other dogs. I do have experience with cats because they did board cats at my job. I will also do play times with cats and clean out litter boxes. In the kennel I would clean dogs rooms, also wash dishes, help with feeding. I cannot wait to meet your pet! I love spending with dogs & cats cuddling etc. I career goal is to become veterinary technician either at a zoo or animal hospital.

“Katie stayed with our two dogs a couple nights while we were gone for the weekend. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs! We would definitely have Katie watch our dogs again.”

“Meatball loved Evie! She was great at keeping me posted with pictures and very easy to work with. Meatball is deaf and nervous about others, but Evie made him feel comfortable. Thanks Evie!”

“Excellent cat - sitter! Courtney was a great caretaker for Milo. She met him ahead of time to be sure they'd be okay together and took care of him for over a week for me. I received pictures of Milo and communications on how he was doing. While I was away, she was kind enough to gather my mail and take care of the house, which was very much appreciated! Highly recommend.”

“I am away traveling for work often and have a needy pup at home. Rachel has done a wonderful job looking after the pup while I’m away. She’s a very nice and thoughtful person. I would highly recommend Rachel for any pet care needs:”

“Whitney is one of the most reliable and compassionate pet sitters I have ever known. She truly shows my dog Molly so much love when she watches her. It has been wonderful to find someone that I can trust so completely to care and love on my pets.”

About: I am an animal lover! I have taken care of many pets over the last 8 years. I have experience training puppies, working with kittens, and caring for senior dogs and cats. I would love to help your pet feel comfortable and care for them while you’re away! I have weekends free for pet sitting. I am free after 5pm on weekdays. I am available for sits at your house or stays at mine! I have a large yard fenced on 2/4 sides. I love to explore and exercise with dogs. I have access to a paved walking trail right outside my yard where your pet and I can enjoy a stroll through nature. Inside I have many large windows that dogs and cats alike love looking out and watching birds, bunnies, and the occasional deer visitor.

“Ellen house sat for our 4 year old dog for 2 nights. She went above and beyond offering to come early and to stay with our dog until we got home even though we didn’t require her to. Our dog has extreme separation anxiety so her staying with him the entire time we were away was so appreciated and hard to find. She took such great care of our dog and our home. She communicated with us through out our trip and made us feel very comfortable and assured. We highly recommend Ellen if you are looking for a sitter!”

“Alexis was wonderful with our 4 yr old corgi, Jaxson. She watched him at our home for a week. She brought in our mail and Amazon packages and left our home and dog well cared for. She sent us several pictures of our dog and let us know that he was adjusting well. Jaxson looked very happy! Alexis is very responsible and we will definitely hire her again when the need arises. Thank you, Alexis!”

About: I have taken care of many dogs in the past. I have a 1.5 year old Golden Retriever that would love to have some friends around! We have a house with a gated yard. I am currently working from home which gives me the capability of giving your pets the full attention they deserve.Your pet or pets will be top priority for me from playtime to bedtime! I have a fenced in yard and a gentle golden retriever who gets along great with other dogs and is willing to tire herself out playing with your pup! We allow pets to roam the home and lay on the furniture if the owner allows, we have crates and gates as well if the owner thinks accommodations are necessary. Your dog will be fully safe and supervised for their stay and I am willing to discuss all the needs of the dog to figure out the best way to take care of your beloved pet!

About: I have owned family 3 dogs (all still thriving) since I was 11 years old. As the dogs were my responsibility because I had asked for them, I trained our fur babies and have loved them as an integral part of my family and life ever since. I connect well with animals through empathy and love, and I am vigilant and quickly attentive to their body language and needs or mood. I am currently a student, so I am able to care for your pet mostly in the evenings and on the weekends! On Mondays and Wednesdays, I am able to care anytime during the day. I enjoy playing with your pets and giving them focused attention to keep them happy and give them enjoyable company. I love to give each dog what they specifically need -- whether that be walks, fetch time, or cuddles!
