Pet care experience

I live by Children's Hospital in Columbus and have two great, playful dogs that love new playmates! They both get along well with other dogs (but not cats!). I also have a cute little fenced in outdoor area that they love playing in. Very dog friendly house with access to the couch and bed! I work from home two days a week with a flexible schedule so they get lots of attention. About this sitter: Big dog lover. Have 2 dogs of my own with a great little patio for playtime. They love doggie company. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover since I was a kid. My pups are used to sleepovers with other playmates! About my yard I have a nice fenced in area with plants and a hammock that the dogs love to play in. My experience administering medication I have experience with this!

Michael was more than fantastic!! He sent us tons of photos and kept our senior dog on his medication without issue. Even our nervous little one fell in love. We will 100% use him again!

Michael was fantastic! He sent pictures the whole time and helped with anything I was anxious about. My dog had a great time too! Definitely a 5 star stay for my pooch! ?

Ok, so Mike was awesome from the start! Flexible, easy-to-talk to, kind and an obvious animal lover! He took care of Virgil, Gabby & Simon as if they were his own and sent great pics and updates during our time away. They looked very happy! We had complete peace of mind and would work with him again in a New York minute! And he lived close by and booked at short notice too! What?! ?? Fantastic experience!

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I'm in Southern Orchards (by German Village) and take my dogs on walks in the neighborhood. If your dog is good with other dogs I will take them to the dog park. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Depends...I let them sleep in my bed often or they have the couch and chairs...no furniture restrictions here! Time I'll spend with your dog I work 7-3 M-F but am off during the weekend and try to spend as much time with them as possible. Now I work from home on Wednesdays and Fridays. Depending on your dogs needs I can adjust and be home more!
