“We had a fantastic experience with Kelly while she watched our dog, Bean, overnight. She is an excellent sitter—attentive, kind, and truly loves dogs. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. When we returned home, Bean was happy and well taken care of. We will be booking with her again!”

About: Growing up I had bunnies, dogs, hamsters, lizards, raccoons, and cats etc. We always give them water, food, shelter and lots of love!

About: First of all, dogs are my absolute passion and believe they are not just pets, but truly are family! I have two (quirky) rescue dogs of my own, Joey and Coco. Our family has fostered dogs for a local rescue, so I am comfortable with dogs that may have unique quirks. I am passionate about ensuring pets are cared for in the way THEY need. If that's a nice long walk, great! If that's a game of intense fetch, awesome! Maybe it's just cuddles on the couch...also great! I would love to be able to spend time with your furry friend when you are not able, because again, they are family and deserve top notch care. I hope to meet you and your furry fam soon! Right now, my evenings are open (6:15-9 pm) and my weekends are completely open when I am in town! I am definitely flexible on weekends. I am a homebody! We live in Elida after living in Cincinnati for 10 years! I am not currently accepting dogs to stay at our home due to anxiety in my own pups with new pups in their space. However, I will ensure your pup is safe and well cared for in your own home for our visits! I, myself, have an escape artist, so outdoor play is always highly supervised, as is the opening and closing of doors. Rest assured your pup will be safe and well cared for in my care!

“Chloe was great!! Highly recommend having her take care of your animals when you’re away! We left for 4 days and we couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter.

About: Hi, my name is Lilie! I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was little and love to be around them. I am currently in school for Medical Ultrasound so I am pretty busy, but if you need someone to watch your pet during nights, mornings, or weekends I’m you’re girl! I have 4 dogs and 2 cats of my own and I have experience working in a doggy daycare for 2 years, so you can be sure that your animal is in good hands :) I’m currently in clinicals full time during the week, so I work 4 10 hour shifts sometime Monday-Friday. Every other weekend I work a part time job from 5:30 in the morning to 1 or 2 in the afternoon Saturday and Sunday. If you are willing to work around these hours, I would love to take care of your animals and help out where I can! I usually like to do a visit before with pet owners to see if I’m a good match for them. Also, I will never take on more than one job at a time so I will always be able to give your pets my full time and attention. When booking me for housesitting, I can stay at your house and watch your animal or I can come by to check on them at set times. I do not offer any services in my own home.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. Many family members and neighbors rely on me to watch, play, feed and take care of their pets. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to hang with your pups. I’m mainly free Friday through Monday depending on the week. Each pet is unique, so I always adjust my care to meet their specific needs. For example, if a pet requires a calm and quiet environment, I make sure to create that at home or in their space. I also adjust exercise routines based on the pet’s energy level and age.
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.

I will come to your home to care for your pet(s), which will allow them to remain in the comfort, safety and security of their familiar environment.

I can keep them if needed or come to your place of residence to walk and care for or to just play with, I have 5 pets of my own if I could have more I would haha, I’ve always had an animal for as long as I can remember, Iv taken care of quite a bit of animals most were rescued, I nursed them back to health and found new homes for them. At one point in time I took care of 7 new born kittens after they were thrown out and abandoned from their mother, I used to live on a farm and took care of farm animals from sun up till sun down, and now I have so much free time I don’t know what to do with it haha
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 4 when I got my first dog. I currently have two cats and would love a dog but my schedule won't provide me enough time to take proper care of one. I am great with training puppies and giving medications. I’m currently a Preschool Intervention Specialist and have my own special education preschool classroom through Lima City Schools. I currently teach August-May. My availability mainly opens up during the summer but love to help out during the school year around my teaching contract. I look forward to working with you! I am currently off for the summer so I can attend to pet care as much or as little as you need. During the school year as long as your schedule works around my teaching contract, I will be able to help you out as much as I can! I have plenty of experience with small, medium, and big dogs. I would prefer to come to you but in the need to have your pet at my house, I am able to crate dogs as needed at my home as my house has an extra room. Plus my cats are very friendly or just stay to themselves so your animals will be in great care.
“Sierra watched out two dogs for the first time and we could not be happier! We received updates and pictures of our pups and felt very comfortable having her watch them! We will be using Sierra again!”
