“I have used Mareth to watch my dog(s) in various capacities since moving into my home in 2020. Mareth and I have trained each other's dogs for a while so I was super excited when she switched over to dog walking and pet sits! When I had a standard poodle living with me for 6 months who had very little exposure to life and had big feelings about it, she took him on training field trips and was instrumental about having him develop positive feelings about the world around him when I was at the office and could not address it daily. When I had to travel for work or to competitions with my other dog, she watched him on many overnights and would give me constant updates with pictures and videos. As a dog trainer, his stays also got interlaced with lots of enrichment and training with other dogs so I picked up a very happy and content dog who did not want to leave her house! Anyone who knows me knows that my first dog is my world. She is a rehabbing fear reactive little dog who has big feelings around dogs who approach her off leash which seems to be plenty in my neighborhood. As a little dog, her safety is of uber importance so I would not allow just anyone walk her. She had other dog visits and walkers but I would come home to a stressed dog and knew she needed a better outlet. When I found out Mareth started walking dogs, it was a no brainer to make the switch. Zuri gets an amazing nice long sniff walk and exercise with Mareth whenever I'm in the office. I get great updates via pictures and videos along with a GPS map of her walk. I come home to a very happy dog who is happy to see me but not stressed. I know that when I get a puppy I can have peace of mind knowing I have Mareth to help me to get the puppy started in life with good exposure through proper training. For anyone who wants caring and professional dog care, look no further, she's worth every penny and then some!”

About: I have had experience in dog sitting my friends’ dogs in the past. Now I want to do it more and give our dog more friends to play with also! Everybody wins! I can be available on weekdays in the afternoon , and weekends after 10 AM for dog sitting. I can walk dog every 2-4 hours. I have a large fenced in backyard with my friendly husky named Zangy and Maltipoo named Nimbus in the house. Lots of space for dogs to play and plenty of treats.

About: I grew up within a household with a variety of animals. At one point we had five dogs, a cat, a bunny, a guinea pig, three hamsters, 5 birds, a bearded dragon, and a gecko. I learned at a very early age how to tend to animals (clean, feed, play, walk, potty breaks, etc) I enjoy helping others and especially caring for animals. They simply bring me joy. I have open availability (other than dates marked off calendar) and am flexible to try and accommodate your schedule as best as possible in order to make things easy for you and your pet. My male husband and I own a house with a fenced in backward and a neighborhood to walk in. Since I have open availability, I have time to tend to the animals without any distractions from other tasks.

About: My family has never not had a dog in the home! I take my pup, Maggie, to the dog park and on hikes constantly (little dirt won’t hurt)! I have also been a volunteer at the HSDC since 2020, caring for scared dogs and walking 80+ ibs of muscle. I love to pet sit and cuddle up on the couch with any animal, truly think that is what calms my soul! I also have experience pet sitting hamsters and chameleons, really any animal is a friend of mine. I’d love to come meet your pet and become besties!! I recently graduated from tOSU and currently am living at home with my mom and pup. I am a caregiver for elderly patients and my schedule is kind of all over the place. Check my calendar for my availability and message me with any questions! I love to give love and make sure every animal gets the care it needs! I ensure that all animals get the exercise they need to thrive and stay entertained/ stimulated. Previously, I have home sat while dog sitting and hamster and chameleon sitting (all at once)! I will always respect your privacy and space, making sure to leave the home in the best/ normal conditions.

How I love and spoil mine will be how I treat yours! Everything I can do to meet the needs of your pet to assure they are safe, comfortable, and love.

About: I’m an animal lover who will take care of your pet like they are my own. My husband and I currently have a mini bernedoodle. My Sheltie passed away 6 years ago at the age of 15 so I have a lot of experience caring for dogs. We also have two cats so I definitely have experience with them too. I have petsat for several family members and friends over the years. I work in education but I took this school year off so my schedule is wide open. During the school year, I would be available before and after school during the school year and anytime during the summer since I’m off all summer. I can easily crate your dog if you want. I will treat them like you would. Cuddles will be given (if they allow) to make them feel comfortable with me.

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog owner. As a child the dog care was always my chore and I have participated in several training and obedience schools. As an adult I’ve owned 8 dogs of all sizes and breeds. All of their training and care was my responsibility. I have a long term plans to own my own rescue for senior animals. I’m currently in between consulting contracts and love to fill my time taking care of animals. The flexibility allows me to be there for your pets when you can’t. I own large home in Arcata with 2 acres of yard for animals to play. My flexibility allows me to care for your pets in your own home which makes the experience less stressful for them.

About: have extensive experience caring for cats with special needs and common health conditions. I’m familiar with upper respiratory infections (such as feline herpesvirus), ear mites, digestive sensitivities, and post-surgery recovery care. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, eye drops, and ear treatments as instructed by pet parents or veterinarians. I pay close attention to symptoms such as sneezing, nasal or eye discharge, ear scratching, appetite changes, litter box habits, and overall behavior to help monitor a cat’s condition. I understand how to properly isolate cats when needed, maintain a clean and low-stress environment, and follow hygiene protocols to reduce the risk of cross-contamination—especially in multi-cat households. I’m patient with shy, anxious, or reactive cats and take a gentle, calm approach to build trust. My goal is always to keep cats comfortable, safe, and stress-free while keeping pet parents informed with regular updates. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for regular walks, drop-ins, boarding, and extended stays, and I make sure pets are never rushed or left unattended for long periods of time. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and trust in both my home and my client’s home. I carefully follow all care instructions provided by pet parents, including feeding routines, medication schedules, and special needs. I keep a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, and I always monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. I’m experienced in managing multi-pet households, maintaining proper hygiene, and ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and informed while they’re away.

“This was my first time using Rover (and the first time having anyone outside of family care for my puppy), and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I have a young Doberman with a lot of energy, and Arya was patient, calm, and firm in just the right way—which is exactly what she needs. He took her on a nice long walk, and I really appreciated the videos he sent along the way. They gave me peace of mind and made the whole process so much less stressful. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and confident with energetic dogs!”

I worked with a certified trainer to train my Lucy in obedience and service tasks. I have experience taking care of puppies, seniors dogs, senior cats, and kittens. I have nursed and fostered kittens as young as three weeks to get them out of barn dumps and into loving homes. My youngest cat, Courage, is my first ever foster fail!

I take pet parent concerns to heart, and I follow written directions down to the letter! I am very attentive to detail and strive to make each experience a positive one. I will ensure I am doing everything possible to keep pets safe and happy in my clients' homes. I can clean up toys as needed, fill water bowls, and scoop litter boxes to maintain a neat environment.
