About: I have been care for my family dog's since 5 years old, I have walked and bath dogs and perivously own cats and taken care of them before. I work part time and also currently in college, I am available after 5 pm on the weekends and during the week day I am free after 3 pm on Tuesday and monday. I am available all summer as I am back from school. I would care up on the pets frequently and note any unusual behavior to ask the client if that should help a concern or not. I would also walk and provide the meals for pet as needed during my free time. I personally don't have a residence in my area to house dog, but in a client home I would make sure they have the required meal and walk them as requested by the client. If the service is available I'm will the perform the same duties I would in client house and make changes based on client's request

About: Hi, I’m Hope! I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for pets—both my own and those of happy clients. I currently work in a veterinary clinic and am studying to become a licensed veterinary technician, so you can trust that your furry friends are in knowledgeable and loving hands. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feedings, or snuggles, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8–6, but I’m available for pet care after work and on my days off. I always receive my schedule a month in advance, so I can plan and let you know exactly when I’m free. Some weeks I work more than two days, but I make sure to fit pet care around my shifts. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh food and water, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and handle any special needs like medications. I also keep the space tidy and send updates so you know they’re happy and safe.

About: Hello! I am Erica! A bit about me, I am in love with nature and animals! Ever since childhood ive been a wild hair, barefoot, truly in-toon with animals free spirit grounded in nature! I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember! Since birth we've always had our family pet. Animals have always been able to trust me quickly, so much my friends and family have joked about my connection with animals like Snow White is in the movie! Haha They truly ground me! Over the years, I’ve pet-sat in client homes and farms, worked in a veterinary clinic as a veterinary technician gaining hands-on experience in animal health, wellness, and comfort. I’ve also worked in boarding care, looking after hundreds of pets and making sure they felt safe, loved, and happy while their families were away. I've dedicated my time to volunteering at animal shelters. My passion extends to animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats to the more unique and unexpected like reptiles, birds, fish, sugar gliders, and farm animals! My greatest joy in life is giving them the love, patience, snuggles and care they deserve! If you are interested in my care and wish to see additional references or have any questions please don't hesitate to send me a message! I am happy to answer any questions you may have! I also work part-time as a server and bartender, which gives me the flexibility to work around my schedule. That means I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pet making sure they get the love, play, and comfort they deserve while you’re away. At this time, I’m unable to care for your pets in my own home, as we’re in the process of putting up a fence in our backyard. Once that’s complete, I’ll be able to offer even more options for pet care. In the meantime, I’m happy to come to your home to dog/cat/pet sit, walk, or care for any pet who needs love and attention.


About: Hello! My name is Amber. I’m currently available to pet sit in Lima and surrounding areas! Dogs are one of my great loves in life. I previously worked at a no-kill shelter in Columbus, Ohio where I worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am comfortable with many temperaments—I haven’t yet met an anxious dog who didn’t warm up to me quickly—but if your dog has any aggression issues, I am not comfortable accepting the request. If needed, I can administer oral medication; I do not have experience with needles. I am a non-smoker, non-drinker, who adapts quickly to new surroundings. I am generally pretty quiet, and I always respect my surroundings. Just like I treat your pets like my own, the same goes for your home. I always make sure it is clean and well kept. By trusting me with the care of your home and your pets, you are giving me the opportunity to do what I love, so there is no question that I will go above and beyond what is expected of me. If you are interested in discussing an agreement further or wish to see additional references, please contact me. I am happy to answer any questions you may have! I am insured by Pet Sitters Associates. I currently have a flexible work schedule, so I am able to do drop-ins, walks, and overnight sits. I try to accommodate schedule requests as best I can! I follow any verbal or written instructions I have been provided. I often send updates to pet owners. I’m a big fan of sending selfies with pets!

About: With 25+ years of experience with pets and livestock I have had the privilege of having a house full of dogs. With two of my own currently I have had the opportunity to care for many dogs over the years and understand how important their care is when your away for an extended period of time. Knowing the absence of parents can be a stressful time for animals I offer comfort and care to ease the stresses of change in routine. My daily routine includes early mornings, outdoor activities, working full time from home and have the flexibility to host a pet or do drop-ins during the work day. At this time I am perusing a Bachelor’s degree in Forensic Accounting online and spend most of my free time around home. I understand the comfort and safety of animals is the upmost priority when caring for my own as well as others. Being sure they are on the property or secured when on walks as well as keeping them away from other animals and people that they might not be familiar with to avoid any conflict.

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.
