“I would recommend Calamidy to take care of your pets. She was patient and thorough. Our cat didn’t seem to notice our absence due to the care taken with him during these visits.”


“Sarah took such good care of my doggos! She left plenty of feedback and sent pictures through the visits! ❤️ She even handled my timid dog very well. I am so glad they were in good hands while I was away!!”


About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life, from playful puppies and energetic large breeds to mellow seniors and anxious rescues. What sets me apart is my calm, confident approach and genuine love for animals. I take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality and needs, and I always prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort. I’m experienced with: Basic puppy training, leash walking, and crate routines Senior pet care, including joint support and slow, gentle walks Administering oral and topical medications Multi-pet households and pet-sibling dynamics Enrichment game enthusiast Reinforcing good manners with patience and positive reinforcement I’m not just here to watch/walk your pet, I’m here to give them affection, structure, play, and peace of mind while you're away. You can count on me for clear communication, dependable scheduling, and lots of happy tail wags (or purrs!). I work full-time Monday through Thursday on 10-hour shifts, so I’m currently available Fridays and Saturdays for pet care. I’m looking for a meaningful way to stay active and spend time with animals on my days off, and what better way than caring for pets! I’m currently offering dog walks and drop-in visits only, and I’m committed to giving your pet the attention, care, and love they deserve while you’re away. My schedule is consistent, and I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in their own home, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. I take time to learn your pet’s normal schedule, behaviors, and preferences so they feel secure while you're away. I respect your home, follow your instructions closely, and provide plenty of love, attention, and play during each visit. For walks, I make sure each dog is securely leashed, avoid unfamiliar dogs or hazards, and adjust the pace to suit your pet’s age, energy level, and weather conditions. I’m also confident and calm when handling dogs with reactive tendencies—I have two large dogs of my own who can be reactive, so I understand how to manage their space, redirect their focus, and walk them safely. I never put a dog in a situation where they feel overwhelmed or unsafe. Building trust, with both pets and pet parents is my top priority. I'm dependable, gentle, and treat every animal as if they were my own.

“Super great with Leo! Went above and beyond to make sure my nervous little cat was taken care of while I was gone and even watered a few plants for me I had forgotten about. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter”


About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments. From energetic puppies to wise seniors. What sets me apart is the level of personal care and attention I provide. I’m not just a sitter, I strive to be your pet’s second home. I’m confident following detailed feeding or grooming routines, and giving each pet the exercise and affection they need. I also know how important emotional comfort is, so I always encourage you to send your pet’s favorite toys or something that smells like home to ease anxiety. As a full-time student with a flexible job, I have a consistent daily routine and plenty of availability to dedicate to pet care. My weekends are wide open, and during the week I only have two 2-hour windows, one in the morning and one in the evening, when I’m briefly out of the house. I always ensure pets are fed, pottied, and comfortable before I leave. The rest of my day is spent around the house, making it easy to provide regular walks, cuddles, and playtime! Although I currently live in an apartment, I provide a calm, cozy, and crate-free home environment. Pets are welcome to lounge on the couch, explore freely, or cuddle up in their bed. If a pet has anxiety or special needs, I’ll work closely with the owner to create the most reassuring setup possible. I maintain constant communication with owners through photos and updates and follow every care instruction down to the last detail.

“Mikayla was very thorough and I am very impressed. It is scary to let someone into your home and be with your pets but she made me feel so confident and my pups loved her! Would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend Mikayla!!”


About: I am a current veterinary student at OSU and would love to help care for your pets! I have been working in veterinary medicine since 2021 and have been pet sitting for over a year. I am comfortable with both dogs and cats. I am also comfortable with oral or injectable medicine, subcutaneous fluids, and inhalers. My schedule is quite flexible, allowing me to be available for pet sitting when needed! I will always prioritize my clients’ and their pets’ needs. I make sure to go slow with any new pet I interact with and read their body language and work with them and at their level. My top priority is to make sure everybody is happy and comfortable.

About: I have been petsitting for all kinds of dogs for many years. Whether it be a rambunctious puppy, or a senior who just wants to chill, I am prepared to provide the highest standard of care. Additionally, I have over 4 years of experience working in a veterinary clinic, and know how to administer medications and handle emergency situations. Being a college student gives me the flexibility to care for pets throughout the day—whether it's walks between classes, cuddle breaks while studying, or relaxed evenings together. My class schedule differs each day of the week, but I am never on campus for more than 5 consecutive hours. On weekends I am generally available to spend most of the day with the pet! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own. I follow all routines closely, ensure doors and gates are secure, and keep the environment as calm and comfortable as possible while their owners are away. I will also send daily pictures/updates so you feel confident and connected while you're away.

“Rachel did a great job caring for my 3 cats while I was out of town! She sent lots of updates and photos and I could tell they were in good hands. I would certainly have Rachel look after them again!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child. I’ve always had a soft place in my heart for all animals In fact I made studying them my degree! I currently work four nights a week it is overnight with my dog I take her for a walk before I leave and I’m back before she’s awake! Other than that my schedule is flexible to the need of the pet. I have a yard and a xl kennel if your pet needs or likes to be in one. I often take my dog to boomer lake for walks as it is only down the street and could offer that to yours as well.
