“Debbie did a great job sitting for my 9 year old Boxer in our camper while we laid my Mom’s ashes in Mentor Cemetary. We are from MT and he’s not used to this heat and humidity. I got her with a last minute request yesterday and she did wonderfully. Highly recommend.”


“Alex has stopped by to feed/play with our older two boys and spent a weekend with our not-yet-13-week-old puppy. We cannot thank her enough for her communication and obvious love for pets.”


“We were extremely pleased with Nancy. She was caring and concerned for our pet, Sophia. She kept us updated by text and photos during our time away, which meant a great deal. Would recommend her highly and would definitely request her again if we need to be away!”

I have provided cared for rambunctious puppies and kittens as well, and I love to meet new furry friends! Currently I am working full-time with the weekends free, and I have pet sit before simultaneously. When I am pet sitting the animals I’m taking care of become my priority and any spare moment I get I dedicate to their well being. I am comfortable leashing and walking dogs, even ones that pull. If I do leave during the day I like to crate the dogs I watch so they have a safe space when I’m gone, and I make sure to keep the floor clear of any hazards that could cause a potential problem.

Not the best early bird in the winter, but summer is a different story and I would be willing to get up the same time as the sun (: I have a yard with long runners attached to my porch so my dog has the ability to run and play freely without worry of running too far off. I never leave the dogs unattended. I also provide special needs for the home as well as pets, ( light cleaning) always leaving your home the way I found it OR BETTER.

They’re in good hands(: I'm currently working a 9-5, but looking for something to keep me busy before and after work! (and weekends when I'm off work as well) I'm very passionate about working with animals I’m super flexible with everything so if you have any concerns, reach out to me and I’m sure we can figure it out! I have two friendly cats who love to play and get along with all animals! They also don't mind hanging out in the basement if need be.

About: I’ve been responsible for the care of pets most of my life. Pets are family to me. I love getting to know their individual personalities and supporting their needs. My routine varies daily and weekly. Weekends and evening are more open but, depending on the day and mommy schedule, I can sometimes be available during the day on week days. Overnight stays can be available for house-sitting if my 14 pound, male dog, Franklin, can accompany me; he is very friendly and attached to me. I will connect with you one-on-one about your pets individual needs and follow their schedule and routine as you identify me to do. I respect your space and guidelines.
