“Vanessa was fantastic at taking care of my two cats over a period of 10 days. She was very punctual, communicative and attentive, I will for sure trust her with my kitties in a future outing. Thanks Vanessa!”
“Christal was amazing with my hyper and strong pitty! She has some reactivity issues and I always get worried leaving her but Christal eased those anxieties with texts, pictures, and videos of their walks and play time. Highly recommend!”
“Rosemarie was absolutely amazing! She took the best care of my pups and made us feel totally comfortable immediately! We had continuous updates of her time with them. Absolutely would recommend her and we will be using her again!”
“Paige dropped in on our dog twice a day for 4 days while I was away on a trip and I can't recommend her enough! She was very professional, prompt, and had great communication before and during my trip. She went above and beyond taking care of him and made sure to get all of his energy out during her drop ins. Louie made a new friend and will miss seeing Paige :)”
About: I have been house/dog sitting since the mid 1980's ( I know, a whole other century)! I have no problem staying at your place and taking care of your doggies, collecting the mail, watering your plants, or whatever keeps strangers at bay. I do have allergies to cats which is a bummer as I am a new cat-grandma but can do feedings or litter changing ( I wear a mask)- I just can't stay over. I have always had dogs in my adult life, and would love to be the "Mrs. Grandma" to your little fur baby! I work from 8am to 4pm Monday-Friday beginning Aug 8.. My evenings and weekends are free of work obligations. I do love to stay busy and explore fun things to do in and around the city or I can snuggle at home with my Winnie and a good book. I have had double knee replacements so walking dogs can be a tad difficult if it is a long journey. My dog (Winnie) has graduated to not requiring her cage during the day and a fenced in yard which she loves chasing the frisbee and tennis balls. We live near a park and Winnie loves to explore the trails. We also have a rabbit (Chip) who was originally a gift for my son and quickly became mine. Chip has an area where he resides inside but loves to be hopping around the living room.
“Jocelyn is our go-to person when we need someone to care for our 2 cats! She always shows up on time, gives the cats lots of love, and provides good updates during the visits!”
“Kara did an incredible job handling my anxious big boy. Talking through some things she was seeing and keeping me incredibly well informed. Her care and attention is clear to see from the moment she starts interacting to the conclusion of the visit. Many thanks Kara!”
About: I have a 6 year old Australian Shepherd who is very high energy. I love walking him or running with him around the neighborhood everyday. I also walk other dogs of various breeds in my spare time (German Shepards, huskies, beagles, boxers). I currently work Monday-Thursday, around 10 hours a day. I walk a lot in the evening or early morning during the summer because of the pavement heat. I’m typically open for anytime Friday-Sunday! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for fetch, running, and playing, and a 6 year old Australian Shepard who loves playing with other dogs. I have a 3 year old daughter, so I do ask for you to let me know if your pet is good around kids.
About: I’m a recent graduate from the Veterinary Technician program at CSCC where I treated and cared for the dogs that lived there. I’ve owned pets since I was 4 years old and often take care of neighbors or family member’s pets. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own! I’m currently studying to take the VTNE, so I have a lot of free time on my hands! I’m available at nearly all times to take care of your beloved pets. I have experience in giving medications, so if your pets need any medication during their time with me, I can accommodate. Additionally, I able to crate your dog if needed and will allow them multiple potty breaks throughout the day. Anything you need for your fur babies, I’m happy to do!
“Madison did exactly what we needed, sent timely pictures, could tell pepper was happy, and she was very reasonably priced. Madison was extremely punctual, communicated effectively, and met all her commitments. Everything you want in someone who you trust with your pet.”
“Iliana was great and very professional. Having Iliana check in on our dogs while I was out of town for business really put my mind at ease. I received a very details update and photos. We will definitely rebook!”
About: I've taken care of my neighbors animals of all kind (cats, dogs, fish) when ever they go on vacation or out of town. I love getting to know all animals and there personalities. I do work part time but am looking to get extra money to help me pay for cosmetology school. So whenever I am not working I am willing to take any pets for walks when ever I can! I will make sure that all animals are safe by using leashes when going for walks and making sure to respect the clients home whenever I do come to take care of a animal.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, the last 13 years we have had 5 dogs and 2 cats in our home. Like most animals lovers we treat our animals like family, because they are. Three of our pups are seniors (12, 14 and 15 years old) that requires daily meds and special treatment. So I have no problems giving medications if needed. I have a passion for making sure each of our animals feel loved, appreciated and safe every single day. I'm available every single day, morning, noon or night, what ever your pets needs are, I'm here to help. Please contact me for your scheduling needs. We have a fenced in yard for our dogs to go outside and play as much as they want. Safety is no issue at our house.
“Jessica was so great and amazing. She took wonderful care of our pup Ruby. She was kind and considerate of Ruby’s needs and trauma history. Jessica provided wonderful updates on Ruby and was very communicative. We would definitely use Jessica in the future and recommend her to others!”
About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a teenager! I will take care of all your pets needs! From dogs and cats to birds and rats, I love them all. From puppies to seniors, I will make sure they get all the love and attention they need while you're away. I have a very flexible schedule and I can work around all of your pet needs. I'm available on weekends, overnight and extended stays if needed. I have 4 dogs at home that love playdates, a fenced in yard and a dedicated area for them to have some down time away from all of the action.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was a child. I have helped my girlfriend train our current dog which is a bernedoodle. He knows how to sit, shake, go to his pillow, and he is currently learning to roll over. I currently have a Doberman at my parents house that I help take care of while I am home. I am currently a dental student at Ohio state and I am in school from 7:30-4:00 daily but the weekends I am free. Some days I will finish before 4:00 but that depends on the week. I feed and water my current dogs and cats every morning and every evening. They get treats throughout the day when they exhibit good behavior and listening skills so they know that is a positive thing to keep doing it.
“Christine was awesome with our dog! In setting up the visits, she was very professional and prompt with responses. She followed all of our requests and Max was very happy when we returned home. We would request Christine again and would definitely recommend her to other pet owners.”

Amelia J.
“Millie was a wonderful dog sitter! We’ve used her several times while out of town, and each time she has gone above and beyond to care for our dog, Lily. She stayed in our home, which gave us great peace of mind, and we could tell Lily was happy and well taken care of. Millie is incredibly trustworthy, responsible, and clearly loves animals. She also sent us pictures throughout her stay, which we really appreciated—it was so reassuring to see Lily relaxed and happy. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable and loving pet care.”
