“I couldn’t be happier having Tazmania stay with anyone else here in Ohio other than Owen and his pack. Care, love and attentiveness given to my fur baby was just what she needed and what I needed for peace of mind on my travels. Thank you Owen!”


“Mary Rose was very responsive and able to squeeze us in last minute, which we greatly appreciated! She kept us updated throughout the stay, and provided plenty of walks and activities for our pup.

About: As an animal person since birth I work hard to understand the specific needs and wants of each animal family member. I have worked with a wide variety of animals my whole life, in vet clinics, animal rehabs, farms, and homes. I can provide walks, hikes, senior care, interactive play time, personal attention, socialization, and general bathing and maintenance. I am incredibly intuitive and patient and pride myself in providing unique adaptive care to each pet. No pet is too big or small; too young or old! I care for all species as well. (dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, etc.) All animals deserve love and care! My work schedule is currently very flexible so most days are available at any time. I make sure to keep my calendar up to date. The safety of your pet is number one. I am more then happy to put in time to build trust with your pet. I even have a very patient dog of my own who can provide a friend to your dog or cat and help with socializing young or nervous animals. I not only care for your pet but your home. Any mess made by me or your pet I make sure to clean!

About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for large varieties of animals, from cats and dogs to reptiles and guinea pigs, and farm animals too! I’m no specialist, but I’ve got more pets than you can count on your fingers and being there for them is my greatest joy in life! I do work-trade at a goat farm near Sunday Creek and my partner works part-time locally. I spend most of my time with pets or livestock! I am always excited to meet new dogs and cats, and would love to get to know them! When sitting in your home, I am sure to remember every little detail from meet-n-greets so that I can provide the ideal care your baby needs. I am open to and probably at the least a little bit experienced with your pets quirky must-haves, such as crating, food rituals, needing high or low energy, etc. I am always happy to spend time outdoors with dogs, and cats as well if they are harnessed and comfortable! I’ve never met a cat or dog I haven’t instantly fallen in love with!!

About: I love animals and to take care of them. I hope to provide your pets with a caring, safe, cuddling place to come. I’ve had animals since I was very little and have always loved them, I plan to be a vet tech when I can. I also have two dogs a chihuahua and an American bulldog that are both neutered. They are both very friendly as well and most of the time the chihuahua minds his own business. (By the way they are both male dogs). My whole family loves animals and would love for your to come stay or visit and even walks would be great. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room for dogs to run in and much more. I work part time so I have time to take care of your pups! If I’m not home my boyfriend is, we have two pups that go everywhere with us I have a fenced in yard and I go on daily walks with my two pups that can help keep yours company. I have neighbors that are are very friendly and there dog had puppies!

“Whitney is a great pet sitter! Arlo came home happy and tired from playing.”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats throughout my life , animals truly make me so happy and I hope to give them as much care and joy as they unconditionally give. I’m a soldier in the WV Army National Guard. I have a puppy of my own, Leo (5mo Dalmatian). We work on basic commands and manner, I clip his toe nails and brush his teeth. I have no issue providing those services if needed! I’m currently working full time as well as Drill weekends for the WV Army National Guard so drop ins and weekend pet stays at my home are ideal. I have 3 cats of my own and one puppy, they’re my favorite babies ever. Ideally boarding at my home is preferred especially dogs who are crate trained.

About: I’ve lived in a college service house associated with a local humane society for the past 2 years which has given me much experience working with dogs, cats, and much more. I’ve cleaned cages, provided food and water, given medications, walked dogs, socialized cats, etc which has helped me gain a wide variety of experiences. I have also lived with and taken care of dogs all my life and lived with around 4 cats over the past 2 years. Whether at home or at school I’m always living with pets and always loving it :) I take care of 2 dogs at home from morning walks to nighttime meals. I have additionally gained so much experience with cats at school where I take care of the 4 cats who live in my house. No matter where I am or the time of day, I am taking care of animals. I will be sure to follow any given instructions directly and be prompt with my care. I know how precious pets are, so I want to do my best to create a safe environment while you are away!
