About: I've been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old, so you could say it's in my blood. Over the years, I've learned so much about their different personalities and needs. One of the most special dogs in my life was my own, who lived to the incredible age of 18. He was a constant companion and taught me so much about loyalty and love. That experience really shaped my approach to dog care, making me extra attentive and dedicated to their well-being. I also have experience with cats and rabbits as well. I usually work my other job in the mornings, but I can be flexible to fit your schedule. Let me know what times work best for you, and I'll do my best to accommodate! Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I always make sure they have a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I follow their regular feeding and exercise routines, and I'm always attentive to their individual needs and quirks. Lots of playtime, cuddles, and positive reinforcement are definitely part of the deal!

“Kristi did an excellent job with Bo! He was very excited to see her and had a fun walk with her and slept well after. :-) She did a great job at keeping me updated throughout the walk, and I was very pleased overall!”


About: I’ve helped take care of several dogs, mainly my grandpa’s dog ever since I was a kid. From walking, to feeding, to cuddling, I’m happy to help look after your pets while you’re away. I work full time during the school year (9-4) but have more free time on the weekends! I have full availability June - Mid August, so don’t hesitate to ask if it’s outside of my normal hours in summer! I try to treat my pets with the best care! I currently have two cats. They are regularly fed, played with and snuggled at home. I do my best to keep a clean litter box and clean up after pups.

“Kate took excellent care of our fur babies while we were away! They loved her drop in visits and fall walks and the photos show just how much fun they were having. We'll definitely use her again for future trips!”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs and always took the lead role in caring and training those in my family. I’m also a trained veterinary assistant so I am capable of handling just about every situation I come across with your canine companion. I am a senior at Purdue university studying Pre-Veterinary medicine. I am currently in Wooster with my fiance for the summer, and am looking for work on top of working on my veterinary school applications. I am well trained in animal handling and am comfortable walking dogs with an abundance of equipment. I can also easily crate dogs. Another bonus is that I am certified in small animal first aid and CPR, giving me valuable skills in keeping your pets safe.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets—dogs, cats, and small animals. From daily walks and feedings to administering medications and providing comfort, I’ve built trust with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their routine, understand their behavior, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you always feel connected. I’m currently working part time so I will be available Saturdays from 12a-9p and Sunday 12a-9p. I also will take requests for other days, I can work with you! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible—feeding them on schedule, giving plenty of love and attention, keeping their space clean, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I respect their environment and follow any specific instructions closely. While I don’t currently have a dog in my own home, that allows me to give your pet my full attention without distractions. My dog currently passed so we have an electric fence but that’s it! If your pet stays with me, they’ll have a clean, calm, pet-friendly space with lots of one-on-one care, playtime, and love. I’m all about making them feel at home—whether it’s their place or mine.

About: Hi! My name is Brenda and thank you for reading my profile! You should be able to get an idea from this as to how much I love, love pets :-) Animals add so much to our lives!! All they do is give to us and so unconditionally! So I totally understand why you would want someone who loves your furry family members just as you do- that is what I want for my furry family too :-) But I understand how hard it is to know who to trust with your most treasured companion. I grew up with big dogs, so love dogs big & small, I have always cared for our cats as well! We even had a Pot Belly Pig & a 5+ foot Iguana! I am the girl that see's your doggy and runs up going "oh! What a cutie!"

But I won't be gone more than a couple hours :-) My pets are my kids, so the house is theirs as much as mine or sometimes they think it's more theirs! Haha :-) since I don't have a dog now, at least until I get a fenced yard I scoop my kitties litter boxes twice a day.

About: As a dedicated dog lover and proud owner of two golden retrievers, I understand that every dog is family. My experience caring for my own pups has given me firsthand knowledge of everything from puppy energy to the gentle needs of senior dogs. I provide patient, loving care tailored to each dog’s personality, age, and routine. Whether it’s keeping your energetic pup entertained or giving extra attention to older dogs, I treat every dog like my own—with love, consistency, and a whole lot of belly rubs. I’m a college student currently off for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule! I’m available weekdays from early mornings through early evenings. While I prefer daytime care, I can also accommodate overnight stays with advance notice. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I’m excited to spend my summer giving dogs the attention, playtime, and love they deserve! While I don’t offer in-home boarding, I’m happy to care for your dog in the comfort of your own home. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, and I’ll treat your home and your dog with the utmost respect and care. My own dogs are protective, so I don’t offer playdates, but I’m more than happy to take your pup on walks, to the park, or to any favorite spots they enjoy. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities.
