About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life. My mom and I foster bottle-fed kittens—even those as young as one day old. Since I was 16, I’ve been house-sitting dogs, and I’ve even helped a dog through two births and assisted in raising the puppies. I have also house sat animals such as ferrets, bunnies, and ducks so if you have any other animals that need checked on just let me know. Spending time with animals and caring for them brings me so much joy. I am currently in school and working part-time. While I am busy my work shifts are only 4 hours and a lot of my school is online. This makes my schedule very flexible. I care for all pets as if they are my own. I enjoy playing with them and often bring them places with me. Though, if you do not want me to take your pet with me I will not.

About: Hi! I’m Mariah, a dedicated animal care professional with over two and a half years working at an animal sanctuary, where I handle a wide range of species from birds of prey to reptiles. Beyond the sanctuary, I’ve volunteered with my local Humane Society, walking dogs and socializing cats, and have been a lifelong pet owner of dogs, cats, reptiles, and small animals like hamsters. I also regularly house- and pet-sit for friends and coworkers, so I understand how important it is to provide loving, dependable care while you’re away. I’m responsible, respectful of your home and pet’s needs, and passionate about keeping animals happy and safe. I’d love to help care for your furry or scaly family members with personalized attention and kindness! I currently work part-time at an animal sanctuary, usually from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Saturday through Wednesday. That means I have availability in the early mornings, evenings, and all day Thursday and Friday for pet care. I’m a night owl by nature, so late-night visits or overnight stays work well for me too! I love fitting pet care into my week—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and find fulfilling. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both their animals and their space with the utmost respect. I follow any instructions carefully, keep the environment clean, and make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well-cared-for. I’m attentive to routines—whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, walks, or playtime—and I always make sure pets get the affection and attention they need while you're away. I also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands.

“Brandon was very patient with a grumpy old cat. He's the best.”



About: I have been watching dogs and house sitting for over 5 years. I have also trained a service dog but am not a certified trainer yet! I am going to school full-time and working part time Monday through Thursday till 3:00pm. Free anytime outside of that time frame. Travel back-and-forth from Hubbard to Kent and Columbus quite frequently. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I provide personalized attention, ensuring each pet feels secure and loved in a familiar environment. For in-home dog sitting, I maintain their regular schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. During dog walks, I focus on safe, engaging outings tailored to their energy level and personality. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind, knowing their furry family members are happy and well-cared for.

About: Great with behavior and socialization. Experienced with young puppies and older seniors. Have been in the veterinary field as a Vet tech for 20+ years. I have pets of my own so it's always fun to allow other pets into our household to enjoy our day to day life. 😊 I have a fenced in yard to keep your pup safe and happy. I also have 4 dogs of my own to keep them company.

About: I have a background in caring for exotic and household pets. I have had cats growing up ever since I was little and would find strays in our yard, to the current 3 cats in our home now. I had a beagle for over 15 years, and have experience working with dogs in a boarding kennel within a veterinary clinic. I have experience working with a variety of animals including tropical saltwater fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals ranging from crocodiles to sloths and penguins. I currently have 2 lizards, a chameleon and a gecko as well. I have a background in basic training for dogs, birds and reptiles including target feeding and basic commands. I would love to come take care of your furry or scaley friends! I currently have 3 cats and 2 lizards that are taken care of on a daily basis. Each animal has their own schedule and routine that vary from eachother, so extra care is often times needed. I also recently worked for an aquarium for the past 6 years, which I was a supervisor that worked up to 12 hour days taking care of basic and advanced care needs for the animals in our facility. I can give basic medications if needed or bottle feed/syringe. I can let out your dog on a runner or lead if that is preferred. Walks are also fine, given proper training based on the specific needs of the dog. I can provide playtime and enrichment to help with extra energy that needs burned off as well.

About: I’ve had two dogs since the age of 3 that are still my best friends. I took on the responsibility of taking care of them at 10. I also work in the pet care department of Petsmart so I know how to care for almost any animal! I do well with snakes, Guinea pigs, hamsters, you name it, I’ve probably cared for it. I worked at Petsmart for a 1.5 years. I did dog grooming and worked in the animal department. I was able to care for animals everyday. I learned how to care for many small animals, reptiles, fish, and birds since working there and have done my own research outside of the job. I currently own one cat who is the light of my life. My family recently adopted a Great Dane, Rottie mix who has become my best friend. I currently live in a renovated duplex, so i unfortunately don’t have a yard for big dogs, but I don’t mind traveling! I love to take dogs for a brisk walk, get their energy out before you come home! I am close to many walking paths and don’t mind traveling for animals. I will make sure any and all directions left behind are followed. Animals are watched closely when needed and fed on time.

“We have been using Breann to drop in on our cats several times now and she has been great and trustworthy. She is good with the cats and takes care of the house. We are never worried when we leave thanks to her. Highly recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting.”


“Elli did a great job checking on Lulu during my vacation. I enjoyed receiving photos of Lulu playing with Elli and getting her tuna treat! It made me less worried about leaving her for the first time! I will use Elli again for certain!”


About: I have a lot of experience with animals and I love them all they get a lot of attention at my home I think they are very affectionate animals and they understand people I am retired now so I am home I give the animals complete attention and adore their personalities I take dogs for walks and I throw balls or frisbees to make them feel comfortable and more of a schedule is best for them I feel animals need a lot of attention so if you show them attention They will make you proud of them Also if you know a dogs routine they’re more safe around you

Mariah will be my number one choice for a pet sitter from now on and continues to impress me with her affection toward all animals!”

Jessica Z.
“From the moment we booked with Jessica, we knew our pet was in great hands. She was prompt, professional, and most importantly—kind and incredibly attentive to our pet’s needs. Jessica went above and beyond with regular updates, photos, and detailed notes that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dog took to her right away, which says a lot because he can be a bit shy with new people. She clearly has a natural connection with animals and treats them like her own. When we came home, he was calm, happy, and well cared for—exactly what every pet parent hopes for! Jessica is reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely loves what she does. We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!”
