“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!”
“Kate used great communication. She did what she said she would do and we came home to happy cats and everything as it should be! We highly recommend her and will rebook!”
“Rachel is absolutely amazing! Her attention to detail, clear communication, and gentle interactions with our two cats and our foster kitty make her a wonderful sitter. She's also observant of any changes to their drinking, eating, or litter box habits, which gave my husband and I peace of mind each day we were out of town! We highly recommend her!”

About: Hi, I’m Elle! I’m 25 and grew up on a farm, surrounded by dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve spent my life caring for them, making sure they get the love, attention, and respect they deserve. I understand that every dog has their own personality; some need space, some need extra patience, and all need kindness. Whether your pup is big, small, energetic, or shy, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re relying on me! ♡ Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine; I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. With my flexible schedule, I can provide the attention and patience pets need, and I’m completely free on Sundays and Mondays for dedicated care. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I’ll always do my best to make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved while you’re away! I provide pet care in my clients' homes, ensuring their pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I handle feeding, walking, and giving them the attention they need while respecting their space and routines. I also make sure to be mindful and respectful of my clients' homes; no judgment, just care and reliability. My goal is to keep both pets and owners at ease, knowing their furry friends are in good hands!

About: I grew up on a farm taking care of every animal you can imagine. Dogs, cats, chickens, stray animals, rabbits, birds etc. I've always been attached to animals. My favorite thing I love to do is take in strays. I have experience administering medicine and taking care of ill animals, as well as dog training my own dogs. I live in a cute brick house out in the country with a lot of land. I also have an underground electric fence, but it not currently being used. I am a SAHM currently and usually pretty flexible, apart from Dr's appointments, meetings, and taking my daughter to school in Findlay Ohio every other week. To me and my family, EVERY animal is family. PLEASE NOTE- although I have a family, I will be the only one caring for your beloved pets! I'm currently not working and am taking a couple semesters off from nursing school. I am pretty flexible, especially on Weekends. I do have frequent appointments and some meetings this month. I would be available every other Wednesday through Thursday from 1030:230, and Monday through Tuesday 8am-4pm, then the following weeks i would be available Monday-Thursday 8am-4pm. Fridays and Sundays I am usually free most of the day. My top priority is your pets safety and well being. We take supervised walks to avoid unsecure situations and I monitor every activity inside of the home. I am efficent at handling emergencies and messes calmly but proficiently. I am privately insured in addition to the Rover gaurantee, so rest assured both you and your furry friends are well protected! We have an open space out in the county with a TON of yard that is not fenced. I have experience crate training and can crate your fur baby if needed. I have three lovely, respectable children who are well educated and trained how to treat and respect animals. We also have 1 half German Shepard/Boarder Collie male dog, who is very Friendly and Playful. He gets along great with other animals. He is crate trained, neutered, and up to date on immunizations. I have experience caring for aggressive and elderly dogs, as well as dogs with certain health conditions and special needs. However, we do not except dogs with prong or ecollars. I am able to bath, groom, and nail trim your pups for an additional cost. Additionally, if your male dog is unneutered I do charge 3 dollars extra per day for boarding.
About: I’ve been around any type of animal since I’ve remember. I’ll make sure your little fur balls are well taken care of under me and everything will be set. Super understanding and easy to get along with and I love to make bondings with them! I’m currently in college and go to class in the morning and get out around 12:30. After class ill be over and ready to take care of your fur babies. For my personal pets I make sure they are spoiled and are happy and in a clean area they have a big yard to run around and play in. For your fur balls I’d make sure to take them on a decently long walk on a good day or car rides if that’s what your dog likes! They will be spoiled with treats if they’re good for me and if I’m doing a dog sit at home I’ll make sure to play with them and make sure they don’t feel left out.
“Madison was spectacular with my kitties! Madison provided daily summaries of their visit, as well as daily photos of the kitties. I even had some unexpected packages come in, and Madison brought them inside for me. Definitely recommend Madison for your pet sitting needs!”
About: I am not new to animal care or taking care of animals. I have veterinary technician experience. I have 2 dogs and a huge fenced in back yard. I do work, but i am able to work in the morning or early evening. My dogs love to play ball, chase each other, go for walks, and car rides. They are crate trained and sleep there at night. We have a huge fenced in backyard that my dogs live to run, wrestle and tear up the grass in. I cannot guarantee your pet won't have accidental grass stains.
About: Hello! I am a registered vet tech and have worked in veterinary medicine for almost 6 years. I have general practice and emergency care experience. If you have a pet who needs medications, special food, special care, etc... then I'm your girl! I have about 4 years of pet sitting as well. I am able to do 2-3 drop in visits a day. This includes feeding, letting them out to use the bathroom and playing with them! I do not do in home boarding due to having my own pets and family. Most pets feel comfortable while being in there own home anyways.
“Kelly did a fantastic job looking after our cat for the weekend. I really appreciated her detailed updates and all the photos she sent as well. The house was well taken care of when we returned too.”
About: Hey Pet Parents! My name is Juliana and I hold a lot of significant experience in caring for pets! First off, I am a full time student at Ohio Northern University where I currently am apart of the Polar Paws program as a Secondary Trainer. This program allows college students to care for and train future service dogs. As a secondary trainer, I would work with various dogs on campus by training and sitting them while their primary caretaker is busy. Prior to university, I volunteered at the Van Wert County Humane Society where I worked with cats and dogs of all ages and all breeds. This consisted of walking the dogs, cleaning cages, cleaning litter boxes, playing with the animals, etc. Currently I am available anytime during the day and anytime of the week, until I update my availability when I need to go back to campus. I care for pets as if they are children. They need attention, respect, and when being babysat, a good time! That being said, in my own home they have access to their own food, water, play area, and have set potty breaks. In a clients home, the same will apply. Any alternative toys, medications, and food can be used most definitely if requested by client. Always a clean and tidy environment before and after.

9. Ragan W.
“Ragan watched my two dogs and cat while I was visiting my husband at his military base out of state. She took really good care of them and walked them everyday I was gone. One of my dogs is on a special kidney care dog food. We normally order it to be delivered to the house. It was on back order, but Ragan was kind enough to go to my dogs Vet clinic and buy a bag of her special food to get her taken care of in the meantime time! I will always have Ragan watch my babies and recommend Ragan to any of my family and friends who need pet care!”
