About: I have enjoyed caring for multiple pets in our family throughout the past 40 years. My most precious boy, Frisbee, a bichon frise, we had from 12weeks to 16years. I have spoiled & cared for many dogs & cats of all ages for friends, family & clients. We currently have 2 dogs of our own. A Daddy's boy, our spunky & silly 9yr old American Bulldog. My Mama's girl, our sweet & sassy, 4yr old Aussiedoodle. I look forward to providing your furbabies with plenty of love and attention in the comfort of your own home, with the same TLC that I give my own. To help create a comfortable & stress free booking. I would like to schedule a Meet & Greet with you and your fur baby(s) prior to the service date(s) for a friendly get acquainted visit. Thank you for considering me! I have a flexible schedule. I look after my elderly mother daily. I can easily adjust my schedule to be available to care for your family pet(s) while you are away. I'll follow your instructions in caring for your pet(s) daily needs while you are away. I will enjoy giving your furbabies lots of love, playtime and respect according to their specific care needs.

Trina went above and beyond what was ever required of her for my dog (Athena) and I. This was my first time ever leaving my dog at home while going out of town and coordinating care. Trina put my mind at ease with frequent texts and pictures, reassuring me that Athena was in excellent hands.

About: My family has owned dogs my entire life and I got my first cat when I was 10. My friends and family know me as someone who is passionate about every type of animal and have trusted me with the care of their own loving companions for 9 years. I currently work part-time and have a very flexible schedule so I can easily provide services as short and sweet as walks and drop ins, to services like house sitting and boarding after communicating with you about what will work for both of our busy human schedules and what works best for your fur babies. While I don't have a fenced yard, I live in a very dog friendly community where potty breaks are short walks with my own dog Maggie who will be your dog's best friend and playmate. After that there are snuggles on the couch with my cat Coraline.

About: Ive taken care of dogs my entire life but in the past few years Ive been caring for other people’s fur babies too! Some were senior or had health issues and needed medication and special care. I work part time with no set schedule and my shifts are usually 5 hours long. I have a lot of free time for long check ins or stays as long as a 5 hour gap while i’m working occasionally is okay with your pet. I will always treat and love your pet exactly as my own. Im adaptable to any kind of care your pet needs so you can be worry free

About: ​Hi there! I’m a professional educator in the Centerville area with a lifelong passion for animal companionship. I'm able to take care of your fur baby especially as school son let's out at the end of May. I know how hard it is to leave your pets behind, which is why I specialize in providing dedicated care right in your own home. By keeping your pets in their familiar environment, I can help ensure they stay relaxed, happy, and on their normal schedule. ​Experience with Every Life Stage I have a deep love for animals of all kinds. At home, I have an elderly yellow lab, so I am very comfortable and patient with senior dogs who might need a slower pace or a little extra TLC. I’ve also been a cat owner in the past, so I’m well-versed in everything from spirited playtime to the art of the perfect chin scratch. Whether you have dogs, cats, or small "extra" family members, I’m happy to help. ​Professional & Reliable As a teacher, reliability and clear communication are at the heart of what I do. You can count on me to be punctual, follow your specific instructions to the letter, and provide regular photo updates so you can see how well your pets are doing. ​Service Area & Home Care I am happy to serve families in Centerville and the surrounding Dayton communities. To give you extra peace of mind while you’re away, I also include basic home care with my visits, such as: ​Bringing in the mail and packages. ​Watering your indoor or outdoor plants. ​Ensuring your home remains secure and tidy. ​I would love to meet you and your pets to see if I'm the right fit for your needs. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a Meet & Greet! As a Centerville educator and lifelong animal lover, my favorite way to spend a day is being active outdoors or relaxing with a good book and a pet by my side. Whether we are exploring local Dayton trails on a hike, playing fetch in the yard, or just enjoying a neighborhood walk, I love keeping dogs engaged and happy. I’ve lived with cats my entire life and currently share my home with a sweet senior Yellow Lab named Oliver, so I’m just as comfortable managing high-energy play as I am providing patient, gentle care for older pets who need a slower pace. ​When we’re back inside, I’m all about the "cuddle quota." I love nothing more than a quiet movie night or reading session with a fur baby curled up nearby. Because I come to you, I make it my mission to keep your pet’s routine seamless and your home secure—I'll happily bring in your mail and keep your plants watered while I'm there. You’ll receive plenty of photo updates of our adventures and snuggles so you can feel completely at ease while you're away! ​As a professional educator, I understand that trust is the foundation of any great relationship. When I enter your home, my first priority is maintaining a secure and stress-free environment for your pets. I follow your specific household safety protocols to the letter—ensuring gates are latched, doors are double-checked, and leashes are secure before we ever head out for a walk or a hike. Because I have a senior dog of my own, I am incredibly mindful of environmental factors like floor traction, temperature, and activity levels to ensure your pet stays safe and comfortable throughout my visit. ​I believe pets thrive when their "safe space" remains unchanged. By coming to you, I eliminate the stress of travel and new environments, allowing your dogs and cats to stick to the routines they know and love. Whether we are playing in the backyard, enjoying a movie-time cuddle on the couch, or I’m refreshing water bowls and cleaning litter boxes, I treat your home with the same respect I treat your pets. To keep that bond of trust strong with you, I provide detailed updates and photos from every visit, so you know exactly how our time was spent and that your home is in reliable, responsible hands.

About: I’ve had 4 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and absolutely love being around them. Through caring for dogs of my own and being around different breeds and personalities, I’ve learned how important patience, consistency, and attention are when it comes to making dogs feel safe and comfortable. I’m experienced with feeding routines, walks, playtime, cleaning up messes, giving lots of affection, and making sure dogs get the attention and care they need throughout the day. Whether your dog is super energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed, I always try to match their personality and make them feel loved like they’re part of my own family. currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m looking to make pet sitting and animal care my full-time focus, so I’m available for weekdays, weekends, mornings and even last-minute needs whenever possible. Because of my flexible availability, I’m able to give pets the patience, consistency, and attention they deserve rather than trying to squeeze them into a busy schedule. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and love being someone pet owners can rely on and trust with their pets. I genuinely try to care for pets the same way I would want someone to care for my own. When I’m in a client’s home, my biggest goal is making sure their pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and as stress-free as possible while their owner is away. I know animals can feel anxious or confused when their routine changes, so I do my best to bring a calm, patient, and comforting presence into their space. I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feedings, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection and attention. Whether that means playing with an energetic dog, sitting quietly with a nervous pet until they warm up to me, or simply giving them companionship so they don’t feel alone, I always try to meet them where they’re at emotionally. I truly treat every pet like they’re my own, and I care deeply about making sure both the pets and their owners feel safe and comfortable trusting me in their home!

Brittany is fantastic! She did a great job with puppy and made our first experience with Rover a positive one. She responded quickly to my questions and communicated effectively. My neighbor even texted me one day at work just to let me know how great Brittany was with our dog and to say how friendly she was. We will definitely use her again!

About: I am very passionate about animals, dogs and cats especially! Love them so much. Your fur babies will be so incredibly loved, adored, spoiled, and so happy by me when I am done with them and they return to you safe and sound. They are so important to me and I will treat them like I would for my own, well disciplined when misbehaving, loved, have fun with them, give them lots of attention and treat them with respect as well. I represent these animals on behalf of them and thier owners since they can't speak for themselves. You will be able to tell the difference in their attitude and behavior of how much love and attention they got from me. I love the outdoors and driving my friends dogs around because I don't like to leave them by themselves all the time. Dogs are family. I have so much passion for these beautiful animals. I hope to have these wonderful opportunity to show you guys. Please note that if there is any messes in my home, there will be a $20 to $30 fee additional to the total cost of my clean up fee. I have to use my cleaning supplies and they are not cheap. I would appreciate your help and understanding with this. I have learned this the hard way and will set this request upfront for pet sitting at my home. I love dogs and cats so very much and am so happy to do thus job. I hope this is a very reasonable request. Thank you all!
