Safe, Affordable and Fun for Fido!!

Pet care experience

Safety is my number one priority! Easy to work with, reliable, responsible and fun are what I strive to provide for my four legged clients and their families. *~*~*~*~Currently booking for Holidays-End of Year 2018*~*~*~* Get your reservation in ASAP!! About this sitter: Hello! I'm Isabel :) I'm a reliable and capable individual that also happens to love animals! I have a multitude of experience with animals and am very knowledgeable about their care. I grew up around dogs, cats, birds, fish, goats, and cows. I worked at various pet stores in college and volunteered at no kill shelters. I now own my own dog, Finn. I am very experienced, knowledgeable, and a perfect candidate to care for your best friend. *Important Note*: I work a day job, outside of my home, Mon-Fri 8am-4:30pm. Why I love dog sitting One of the first things that I ever wanted was a dog. Countless birthday wishes were made, but it wasn't until I was 25 that i was able to get my own puppy, Finn. In order to spend time with dogs before then, I began pet sitting and volunteering at shelters at the age of 12. I have lived with, cared for, and helped train dogs since then. I understand the way they think and just enjoy their company. Your pet will be treated with dignity and respect while in my care. Meet my pets I have a 4 year old Border Collie/ Australian Shepherd mix. He frequently visits a local vet and is always medicated for fleas, ticks and any other parasites. He can come with me for overnight stays or check ins, if you believe your pet would like to socialize and maybe make a new friend. My roommate has a cat, Willow, so any dogs that will be boarded at my home must be good with cats. If you're unsure, I cant book and risk any issues with Willow, as it is her home. About my yard I live in a duplex with my dog, two roommates and a cat in Clintonville. The house has a large, mostly fenced yard and is surrounded by a huge neighborhood perfect for walks. In addition, Glenn Echo park is close and a favorite of mine and my dog Finn. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering all kinds of medication. I have experience with nearly every kind. Please discuss this with me before we book a stay.

This is the third or fourth time we've had Isabel watch our dog and he was so excited to see here when she showed up, which was really reassuring. She was super communicative and very respectful of our house when staying there. I'd recommend Isabel to anyone.

Sadie had such a great time! Isabel checked in daily with me and really took the worry out of me leaving for the week! Will definitely be booking again!

We highly recommend Isabel! We knew our rambunctious cat was in good hands while we were away. Pebbles loved having her and we came home to a happy cat. Isabel is great with communication and updates. She's very reliable and we couldn't ask for more in a pet sitter.

Isabel takes such great care of Vinny! She is also so responsive and trustworthy. This is her 3rd Vinny watching stretch and honestly after a fantastic experience the first time I don't even look for another sitter because she is my first and only preference!

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks Clintonville neighborhoods and parks Whetstone Park of Roses Your neighborhood I can take your dog hiking if that is something you would like and they are accustomed to. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog will sleep wherever he/she prefers. Some of the furniture in my home is dog friendly. I can also crate your dog, if you prefer. If you want to bring a crate or bed you may do that as well! Time I'll spend with your dog This is dependent upon the day. I work during the day, Mon-Fri, 8am-4:30pm. I will spend the morning with your pet and the evening and night. This follows most pet schedules that I've worked with. On the weekends I am free to spend as much time as possible. Extra house-sitting services I can water plants, bring in mail, and I can pick up waste in the yard for a fee.
