About: I have had dogs of my own since 1999. I have dog sat for family members in my home and in theirs. I completed dog behavior training while volunteering for a local pet rescue. I have a fairly open schedule at this time. While I will be doing pet care part time, most engagements should work with my schedule. When in your home, I will strive to maintain your pet’s environment and schedule. I want your pet to be comfortable while we are together.

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.

“Autumn was such a huge help while I was working. She made sure Koda went on good walks and spent the time to come meet us before we started walking! She is on time and great with animals”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’ve spent a couple years volunteering at animal shelter, where I was required to learn how to work with many different personalities. I’m very knowledgeable when it comes to reading dogs body language and figuring out their needs. I fed, walked, and played with many pups. I have 10 years of experience, taking care dogs. Neighbor, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I’ll enjoy taking your pup on long walks and hikes, basically anywhere dogs are allowed. I am very passionate about our furry friends and treat them with love and compassion, I will love your pup like it were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule so I can work from home if I need to. I normally do potty breaks every 4 hours. I also have a schedule of feeding twice a day but if you prefer a specific schedule let me know. Teddy is a friendly pup and will keep your dog entertained. I normally don’t crate dogs unless it is necessary. If you prefer your dog being crated or is being trained let me know. Your dog will be loved and cared for.

About: Hi! My name is Emma. I’m 31 years old. I have had a passion for animals my entire life. Recently, my 15 year old puppy, Rufus, passed away unexpectedly. I miss being a dog mom and helping take care of your animals will help fill that void. I treat every animal as my own, big or small. I have many many years of taking care of different types of breeds. I offer a few different services including overnight stays, drop in visits or the occasional walk/let out. Whatever you may need, don’t hesitate to reach out! I currently work for myself doing instacart. I’m out and about all day. I have all the time in the world to come take care of your babies! Every animal will be taken care of to the fullest. I will follow any instructions given to me for said animals. I will always make sure to keep an eye on the animal(s) when outside.

About: Throughout my life, I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs from their puppy years to their senior days. I've always shown them compassion, love, and care. I enjoy outdoor activities with them, whether it's playing in the yard, going for walks—short or long—in the neighborhood, or embarking on hiking adventures. When they prefer to simply laze around and seek comfort, I'm there for that too. My full attention is devoted to them when they're under my care. I'm retired and lost my dog due to a stroke, so I have plenty of time to care for your family pet. I will care / walk your pet at your home or pick up and drive to a park for a hike or longer walks. I will ensure your pet is kept in a secure area while indoors and on a leash when outdoors. Should you have any specific requests, I will adhere to them and strive to maintain your pet's regular routine. For walks, I will only take pets from one household at a time to avoid mixing different households.

“Yolena is very thorough and reliable! She always takes great care of my dog.”

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.

About: I offer dog sitting, drop-ins, and walking. For each service I will always do my best to make sure the animal enjoys my presence and is safe in my care. I am pretty flexible when it comes to schedule and tasks you’d like for me to do. I love to create a bond with the pets, and families that I help out with. I am a college student at OSU that’s home for the summer. I spend my weekends and off-time volunteering at the local animal shelter to care for the dogs. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Thank you! I am flexible and am always able to make sure that your pet is getting the care they need. I have a car so I am able to drive wherever needed at any time. I always make sure to prioritize my dog sitting over other plans, to ensure I am taking the best care of the animals. I am a very tidy and organized person, so I will ensure that your home stays that way during my stay. I will make sure the home is taken care of properly while taking care of the animals.

About: Hi, I'm a professional dog trainer. I can offer a safe and enriching environment to feel like home away from home for your dog. You can guarantee in my care your loved one will get the best quality experience. I'm really open on the weekends and have a few shorter days during the week. Thursdays are my only day that I work all day. Looking for some time to spend with pups that isn't in a training ring. I have a fully fenced yard. Also, my pups are here to keep your dog company. We do a lot of practice with door safety and waiting for food.

“Haley has been incredibly responsive from the very beginning, even meeting with us ahead of time before scheduling. She’s warm, friendly, and so understanding with our pup, Cosmo. He tends to be shy at first, but Haley’s gentle approach has really helped him start to come out of his shell. We truly appreciate her patience and the thoughtful updates she provides after each visit. We’re so glad to have her as part of Cosmo’s care going forward!”

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.

About: While I have had numerous cats and dogs throughout my whole life from which I have learned much responsibility, I have also volunteered at a local animal shelter where I fed cats, cleaned cages & litter boxes, and gave cats enrichment time. I am not currently working as I am going to college at the end of August, so my availability is open. I can do any day at any time! I have experience with crating dogs, walking on a leash, feeding and playing with animals. I will ensure the safety or your pet and their needs being met!

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m patient and gentle, and I know how to tailor care to your pet’s unique needs. Whether it's giving meds, keeping up with energetic walks, or offering lots of cuddles, I’ve got it covered. I also have experience with crate training and basic commands, and I always treat pets like family. I’m reliable and communicative, and I truly love what I do! I’m a student at UD with online classes this summer, which gives me a super flexible schedule and plenty of free time. I’ll be available all summer for walks, drop-ins, playtime, or overnight stays. Since my classes are remote, I can easily plan my day around your pet’s routine and give them the attention and care they deserve. I have two friendly goldendoodles of my own (Henry and Milo), so I’m very used to providing loving, attentive care every day. I’ve also taken care of my neighbors’ dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets feel secure and happy. I treat every animal like part of the family and always follow the routine that works best for them.

“Lyndsey has walked my dog Coco a few times now and it’s going really well. Coco is very happy to see her come everytime. Lyndsey is lovely and has a bubbly energy. She is very punctual. I highly recommend her :)”

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.

“Melanie did a great job walking Winston, our English bulldog. She was always on schedule and made sure Winston got to sniff all of his favorite things. Really appreciated all of the prompt communication as well including daily photos!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid- from dog sitting for neighbors when I was a kid to dog sitting for relatives and friends as an adult. I’ve also owned a Dachshund, a German Shepherd, and Great Dane (yes, I kept sizing up lol). I’m currently available all day Monday-Thursday in the morning and afternoon. Since I have the summer free, I will prioritize your pet care in my daily schedule. When pets stay with me, I treat them like part of the family. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in a calm, clean environment (no kids and I don’t smoke). I stick closely to their normal routines (including feeding times, walks, and potty breaks) and I’m always happy to provide updates, photos, and messages to make you feel conn acted when you’re away. If your pet has any special needs (like medication or dietary preferences), I’m experienced and attentive to those details. When I take care of pets in their own home, I aim to keep everything as consistent as possible by following instructions carefully and treating your space with the utmost respect. I’ll make sure they have plenty of companionship, exercise, and affection while you’re away.
