Dog Sitting Lockland

“We are happy we chose Lindsay to take care of our cat. During the first meeting I could tell right away our cat fell in love with Lindsay although she can be very nervous around strangers. Everything went absolutely great and I would recommend Lindsay to everyone!”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, including playful puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I am comfortable administering medications, following special care instructions, and creating a routine that helps pets feel happy and secure. I have also volunteered with 4 Paws for Ability training future service dogs and with Cincinnati Animal CARE walking shelter dogs, giving me experience with many different breeds, personalities, and needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and love building trust with each animal I care for. I work a typical Monday-Friday 9–5 schedule, but caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for outside of work. My mornings, evenings, and weekends are available for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and giving your pets the attention they need. I love staying active with dogs and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. My priority is always making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they are with me. My home has a fully fenced-in yard, providing a secure space for dogs to enjoy outdoor time and play safely. I also have cats who are used to sharing their space with other animals and are happy to keep to themselves, allowing visiting pets to have a calm, low-stress environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I would want for my own home. I follow all instructions closely, maintain pets’ routines, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: Hi! We're Charlotte and Leslie, your favorite Queer Aunties. Our boys are Otis and Auggie and they can't wait to meet you and your pet! Otis is the Friendliest Friend Who Ever Friended -- he's a 68-pound pittie mix who has never known a stranger. He is great about matching energy with his doggo friends and responds well to communication from other dogs. We joke that his energy level is along the lines of being a sprinter, not a marathoner, but if your pet is a marathoner he will do his very best to keep up. As long has he gets to take a nap afterward, LOL! Auggie loves to run in the back yard with his friends and play tug with them. He's also a pittie mix spends his time either solar charging in the yard or napping near his humans. We've learned that he sometimes needs slow introductions to new friends and is perfectly content to spend time in his crate to decompress when needed. I've owned dogs since I was a teenager and have added cats to my household in the past few years. We have experience with special needs dogs and cats - we like to learn what their needs are so that we can set them (and us!) up for success. We're accustomed to giving medication, syringe feeding, monitoring behaviors, etc. We both work from home and are able to play with your pet and let them out for potty breaks multiple times a day. If left home alone, it would be for no more than 2-3 hours at a time. Your pet will be loved and spoiled as if it were our own. We allow our pets on the furniture and have multiple cat trees and dog beds around the house. We have a large fenced-in back yard for the pups to run and play in. Otis also has a couple of friends in the neighborhood that we may introduce your pet to for a group playdate. Your pet is sure to have a fun time no matter what!

“My dog is very anxious/nervous when I’m gone, Katie was so patient with her and kept me well informed the entire time! Highly recommend her”

Megan B.

“We had Gwen sit our two dogs with periodic drop-in visits while we were away on vacation, and we couldn't be happier with the care she provided them! She really went above and beyond with their care, even taking the time to take one of our dogs to the vet for an appointment that had to be done during the time that we were away. It wasn't an ideal circumstance for us to have to ask a sitter to do such a thing, but Gwen had no problem going the extra mile for us, and it was incredibly helpful that she was able to do so. We couldn't be happier with the care Gwen was able to provide!”

Jacob T.

“Loved the photos and videos she sent!”

“Katie W. is great with dogs, responsive and responsible. Our 2 pups can be standoffish but both opened up to Katie right away. We would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Katie!”

“Olivia did house visits for my two cats. She did a wonderful job with plenty of feedback and photos. I’m very pleased and will definitely hire her again.”

About: Ive been around pets my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, litter box care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I always follow the owners instructions closely and make sure pets feel safe abs comfortable while they're in my care I currently work part-time on Mondays, Tuesdays Thursdays, and Saturdays, ( sometimes they don’t schedule me all days) and I attend college during the week. My school schedule is fairly flexible with no more than two classes per day, usually lasting around 2 hours each. This gives me plenty of time between classes and work to care for pets, provide walks, drop in visits, and spend time with pets staying with me. I'm also available for boarding and overnight care. On weekdays, drop-off and pickup times may need to be arranged around my class schedule, but I'm happy to work with owners to find a time that works for both of us. My days off from work are Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, so I have even more flexibility on those days. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space with plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, meals, and bathroom breaks based on their normal routine. I keep a close eye on them and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for while there away from home. In a clients home, I follow the owners instructions closely and try to keep the pets routine as normal as possible. I'm respectful of the home, keep things clean, and make sure the pet gets the care, attention, walks, feeding, and companionship they need. I'm also happy to send updates and photos do owners know how their pet is doing.

“Olivia was great. She sent me updates and pictures daily. She took great care of my cat and was always responsive if I needed her to take care of something for him.”

About: I have grown up and owned animals all of my life including dogs, cats, cows, chickens, sheep, rabbits, and hampsters! I am young and looking to walk and care for your pets! Pet care will fit perfectly into my routine of nursing school and I am excited to work with anyone to fit their pet care needs and wants! My roommates and I own a male siamese cat, keeping our home very pet friendly. I also have grown up with animals my whole life and have a special place for them in my heart.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could walk. Grew up walking stuffed animals around on a leash just to prove to my parents that I was responsible enough to own one myself. I had two dogs that both lived to 16 so my track record is good I am currently working from home three to four days a week and that allows for me to be flexible with my timing. I can leave the house, let a dog out or just give him/her some extra belly rubs I have a fenced in yard that allows your fur baby to run around freely, but within the home I love to snuggle. Your pets are allowed on furniture and in beds at this household, as long as it’s okay with you.

About: As a dog owner myself, I truly understand how much your pup means to you, they’re family, not just a pet. I currently have an 8-month-old Golden Retriever puppy (Moomin) of my own, so I know firsthand the energy, playfulness, and training that goes into raising a happy, well-adjusted dog. Over the past year, I’ve handled daily walks, feeding, playtime, and all the little routines that keep a dog happy and healthy. I love taking dogs to the park for fresh air, playtime, and socializing with other pups, but I’m just as happy keeping them calm company at home if that’s what they prefer, I adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level. I’m attentive to every little cue, whether it’s excitement, anxiety, or just wanting a belly rub, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable the whole time. I also like to keep you updated with quick messages and photos throughout our time together, so you always know your pup is happy, safe, and having a great time. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I’m a full-time software engineer working a hybrid schedule with flexible hours (10 AM–3 PM). I’m typically out of the house on Mondays and Tuesdays, work from home the rest of the weekdays, and I’m completely off on weekends. My schedule is also flexible enough that I can adjust days if needed to match your pup’s needs. On the days I’m home, I have plenty of time for walks, play, and feeding, and I’m usually happy to have a dog keep me company while I work. I regularly cuddle and work alongside my own Golden Retriever puppy, so I’m used to balancing focused work with giving a dog attention, short breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. It means your pup won’t just be looked after, they’ll genuinely have company and companionship all day long. In my own home, I make sure dogs feel comfortable and settled right away, giving them a calm space to relax along with plenty of playtime and cuddles. Since I have my own Golden Retriever puppy, my home is already dog-friendly and set up for a happy, active pet. I take dogs for regular walks and trips to the park, letting them socialize with other dogs when they enjoy it, or keeping things calmer and quieter if that suits them better. I always adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level rather than sticking to one routine for every pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions the owner gives me, so the dog feels as little disruption as possible. I’m attentive to their comfort and cues throughout, and I send regular updates with messages and photos so owners always know how their pup is doing.

About: I have hands-on experience working in a veterinary clinic, where I care for dogs and cats every day. My experience includes handling, feeding, walking, administering medications, monitoring pets, assisting with treatments, and recognizing when something may be wrong. I’m comfortable working with pets of different personalities and energy levels, including nervous or anxious animals. I’m patient and attentive, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe and comfortable. Outside of work, I have a young Whippet of my own, so I understand how important exercise, enrichment, consistency, and patience are for young dogs. I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own! I am a full-time UC pre-veterinary student, and I work part time at Mason Family Pet Hospital. I have consistent breaks during my available weekdays to care for animals. I do my best to care for the animals as though they are one of my own. I try to read their behaviors to better understand their needs.

“Was quick to respond to a next day appointment! Made me feel comfortable leaving my fur babies in good hands”

“Shanikka did a great job taking care of my cat Scout while I was away. She was very reliable even when I had to make a last minute change to my schedule. She also sent updates and pictures of Scout playing which was reassuring during my trip!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, my favorite breed is golden retrievers! I’m a very responsible medical student who is responsible and good at communication. I am part time with a variable but flexible schedule. Some weeks I can visit more frequently than others but I will be communicative about this. At home I have a fence for dogs. I’m looking to walk and/or visit. I am comfortable with crating. I am flexible to your dogs needs!

About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and that hands-on experience is what I bring to every walk. I understand dog body language, pacing, leash manners, and how to read when a dog needs a break or a bit more activity — not from a course, but from years of actually living with dogs day to day. I treat every walk the same way I would for my own dog: attentive, on time, and focused entirely on their safety and comfort for the full duration. Whether your dog is high-energy, a little nervous around new people, or just needs a steady routine, I adjust to what they need rather than running a one-size-fits-all walk. You can expect clear communication before and after every visit, so you always know exactly how things went. My schedule is flexible throughout the day, so dog walking isn't squeezed into a narrow window — it's a real part of my daily routine. That means I can offer consistent mid-morning, afternoon, or early evening walks, and I'm also able to accommodate last-minute requests or changes in timing without it being a scramble. If your schedule shifts week to week, I can usually adjust to match it. Safety is the first thing I think about with every walk. When I arrive, I double-check that all doors and gates are secure before I bring your dog out, and I make sure the leash and collar or harness are properly fitted before we leave — no slipping out mid-walk. I stick to routes I know well, avoid off-leash areas unless specifically asked, and keep a close eye on other dogs, traffic, and anything that could startle or spook your dog. I always carry water on hot days and adjust the pace or length of the walk based on weather and how your dog is doing that day. Before I leave, I make sure your home is exactly as I found it — doors locked, lights as they were, nothing out of place. If anything ever comes up during a walk, you'll hear from me right away, not after the fact.

“Karen was excellent with Luna! She was patient, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain her approach to earning Luna’s trust. During just one drop-in, Luna already showed noticeable progress in warming up to her. I really appreciated Karen’s expertise and the helpful guidance she shared with me as well.”

About: Hi, I’m Breanna thanks for taking the time to view my page! I have started an Instagram for photos of pet bookings if interested: breannaspetbookings. “If you can be anything, be inclusive” LGBTQ+ 🌈 friendly. I volunteer at local animal shelters/hospitals in my spare time. I have also volunteered at Wolf Creek Habitat multiple times. In the process of becoming a volunteer for the humane society of the United States. I am a college graduate from the University of Cincinnati with a bachelors of Science in Biology. I did undergrad research with spiders. Then went on to do research at UC with mice. Animals have always been apart of my life. I’ve cared for small animals like hamsters, rabbits, snakes, lizards, and fish as well as dogs and cats. At my home currently I have an 11 year old son, 3 Shiba Inu’s, and 1 Japanese Akita. We have a 200 gallon fish tank that is home to 2 bichir’s, and 2 Pleco’s. Over COVID I rescued my female Shiba Ahmya and raised a surprise litter of 6 Shiba Inu puppies! The most challenging part was saying goodbye to the puppies. I would have kept them all if I could. I am currently preparing to apply to grad school/ career change and have a flexible schedule. I also offer leash training, socialization, and anxiety training. I am really open to whatever needs you may have for your pets. My prices are negotiable on a case by case basis. Meet and greets are a good way to establish expectations for house sitting requests. Communication is key. My goal is to provide personalized, and excellent pet care so that your pets think of me as extended family. True animal lover since I was a kid. I’m comfortable with all dog breeds/ sizes/ temperaments. Flexible usually available on short notice, especially during the pandemic. Now more than ever I know how important it is to provide safe and dependable service for your pets when you can’t be there yourself. Currently pet care is a large part of my life, not just for my own pets but the ones I’ve been lucky enough to meet the last couple of years. I don’t think of pet care as work. I see it more as having relationships/friends that I see regularly. Extra services not listed in the app: I’m willing to provide transportation services for your pets, weather or be a trip to the vet, groomer, park, special requests. Running/biking/agility activities in place of walking. The cost of these services will be $20 for 30 mins or $40 for an hour or more. They can be booked on the app under dog walking and then relevant information/ instructions would need to be provided! Unusual animal/exotic animal sitting requests can be booked under dog since there’s no option for them on the app. Special needs information would need to be provided. Example: Pot Belly Pig, Koi fish pond, Chickens. Lots of care and attention is given to make pets feel safe and comfortable, that’s my goal and how I’d want my babies to feel. My dogs have a set schedule and know what to expect and when. They are treated like family and loved like children. When requesting any pet services it is super beneficial for everyone to make a time schedule/ expectations either emailed or texted prior to the sitting. As well as any food allergies, fears, behaviors, and general emotional/ physical needs. My routine is based around pet care needs. I try to be as flexible as possible to be there for clients and pets alike. I like being able to give peace of mind and be there for people during difficult times. I try to listen to clients needs and meet them as much as possible, so ultimately everyone feels safe and happy! I’m a big advocate of mental health/ wellbeing and it’s always included in my booking decisions. I’m also experienced with many different breeds and situations at this point and know how to make informed decisions.
