About: I've been a certified service dog trainer and sitter since October 2022. I've worked with dozens of dogs and have veterinary and doggie daycare experience. I work five days a week currently from 6:30am-3pm and starting in the fall 2-10pm, so I am available outside of those hours to drop in and let your dog(s) out to go potty, engage them in play or mental stimulation, or feed them. I always make sure there is nothing dangerous or breakable/destroy-able within reach of the pet if I am not able to keep my eye on them.

Go on your summer vacation feeling relaxed and secure about your pets’ care. I love going for walks and jogs with my dog, and would love to tire yours out too!

About: Hello! My name is Amber. I’m currently available to pet sit in Lima and surrounding areas! Dogs are one of my great loves in life. I previously worked at a no-kill shelter in Columbus, Ohio where I worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am comfortable with many temperaments—I haven’t yet met an anxious dog who didn’t warm up to me quickly—but if your dog has any aggression issues, I am not comfortable accepting the request. If needed, I can administer oral medication; I do not have experience with needles. I am a non-smoker, non-drinker, who adapts quickly to new surroundings. I am generally pretty quiet, and I always respect my surroundings. Just like I treat your pets like my own, the same goes for your home. I always make sure it is clean and well kept. By trusting me with the care of your home and your pets, you are giving me the opportunity to do what I love, so there is no question that I will go above and beyond what is expected of me. If you are interested in discussing an agreement further or wish to see additional references, please contact me. I am happy to answer any questions you may have! I am insured by Pet Sitters Associates. I currently have a flexible work schedule, so I am able to do drop-ins, walks, and overnight sits. I try to accommodate schedule requests as best I can! I follow any verbal or written instructions I have been provided. I often send updates to pet owners. I’m a big fan of sending selfies with pets!

Over 40 pet parents in Lima have booked cat sitting
Lima cat parents share their Rover experiences
Laura was wonderful with our cat and gave us terrific updates and photos so that we could see how he was doing! She gave him great care and we really appreciate all her help! She went above and beyond so that we could relax and have peace of mind!
So thankful Laura was willing to brave the snowy roads to come check on our kitties while we were out of town!! She was able to medicate one of our cats without issue and spent lots of quality time with them. She even offered to come back the next day if we were delayed on our trip home due to weather conditions! Loved the photo updates - really put us at ease while we were away. Definitely will be reaching out to her again for future visits!
Laura did a great job of taking care of our boys (cats) while we were gone. She did a great job of communicating and keeping us informed about how everything was going. She even checked in with us to make sure we got home. I would recommend her to anyone looking for pet sitting services.
