Dog Sitting Monclova

About: I have had dogs as a family pet since 2008. Currently have 2 dogs who are very loved and spoiled to death 😊 I started off dog sitting for a family member in 2019 with a senior dog, and then a puppy a couple years later. I have also house/pet sit for a family friend for the past few years as well. They have 4 dogs (ranging from 15 lbs to 100+ lbs) and 3 cats. I have a good rapport with both groups and can provide references if needed! I also have experience with sitting a 1 cat household as well for one of my friends. In my household, my sisters and I have potty-trained and skill-trained every one of our family pets (we have had 4 now). I have experience with giving pets medications as they need following the owner’s specific instructions. Lastly, I have walked dogs of all kinds of sizes (miniature pinscher all the way to a Great Pyrenees). I look forward to helping you with your pet needs!! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday from 10am-7pm. I work at a pretty lenient place that gives me lunch breaks up to an hour and a half long, so in the past if a pet I have watched needs a potty break midday, I can go back on my lunch break to do so. I have availability after getting off from this job as well, so I can accommodate to late nights as well. I don’t work weekends there so I have pretty much open availability every weekend. 😊 I currently live at home with my parents and sisters, so I do not offer pet sitting at my home at this time. I have pet sat for people in different home styles (apartment, single-level home with small yard, two-story home with big yard). I have always followed every owner’s instructions and rules to a T. Every owner has loved my care with their pets and continues to put their trust in me to this day. I have several references that I can provide if needed!

“Abbey took care of our three family cats while we were on vacation in Florida for nine days, and I cannot say enough good things about the experience. Before we left, I was very worried about being away from them because our cats are such an important part of our family. Abbey made it so much easier for us to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing they were in such good hands. She communicated exceptionally well, providing updates after every visit along with pictures and videos of our cats. Seeing them and knowing how they were doing gave us tremendous peace of mind. She also kept their litter boxes clean, made sure they had fresh water and their food was full, made sure they had treats, and clearly gave them plenty of attention and care. What truly stood out was how she went above and beyond. We have an outdoor cat who would greet her every day and was always very vocal when she arrived. One day he didn't show up when she arrived. Concerned, Abbey spent time looking around for him but couldn't find him. Even though she wasn't scheduled to come the next day, she returned the next day specifically to check on him. Thankfully, he was there waiting to greet her, and knowing that she cared enough to come back and make sure he was okay meant so much to us.   Abbey is kind, dependable, caring, and truly treats your pets as if they were her own. We would absolutely use her again for future vacations and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust to care for their cats. She is wonderful! 🐾❤️”

About: I work as a grooming technician and have an educational background in animal and veterinary science through NSTC, which gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior, safe handling, and basic health knowledge. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including reactive and high-energy dogs. I’ve also done training work with reactive dogs, so I’m confident managing structured walks and helping dogs feel secure. In addition to sitting and walking, I can provide light grooming services such as nail trims, bath and brush, and sanitary trims upon request. I’m patient, attentive, and focused on building trust so pets feel safe and relaxed in my care. I work part-time in the pet care field, so animal care is already a regular part of my daily routine. My schedule allows flexibility for morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on the day, and I have strong weekend availability. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting in your home, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable. I provide care in my client’s home and prioritize safety, structure, and low-stress handling. As a grooming technician, I work hands-on with dogs every day and am very comfortable reading body language, recognizing stress signals, and adjusting my approach to keep pets calm. I have experience working with and training reactive dogs, so I’m especially patient and aware during walks and new situations. I carefully follow all owner instructions, keep doors and gates secure, and can crate if needed. I’m also comfortable administering oral medications. Your pet’s physical and emotional well-being always come first.

About: I had pets my whole life growing up (cats and dogs at the same time), currently haven’t a cat, and watch my families pets when they are out of town. I am reliable and can handle any situation that comes up. I work full time but I am able to work from home half the week so this allows me to be flexible with my pet sitting. I have a huge fenced in back yard, I treat every animal like my own as well. Additionally, I always respect other people’s homes.

“Annabelle did a great job checking on the cats. She made friends with Walter. Dexter and Woolly Bear were not seen, which doesn't surprise me.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, i’ve even lived on a farm! I enjoy the company animals give me and how I can understand their love and appreciation without words. I have been around pets from dogs and cats, to turtles and ferrets. I have always been able to bond well with plenty of animals and it makes me happy knowing I can take care of them. I am a full-time college student at UToledo, majoring in Psychology! Although I am taking 5 classes, I still have many gaps in my schedule, and I would love to be able to use my time to play with animals! At the moment, I do not have my own animal, as my previous one passed away. I'd love to make my day a bit brighter and more exciting by watching your sweet animals! Unfortunately, I will not be able to pet-sit or care for any animals in my own home due to living in an apartment, having no fenced-in yard, and not having much space for pets to roam around. I am able, though, to go to anyone’s home to watch their pet and take it from there. I love being outside, so walks are definitely a must for animals that need lots of walking (or any cats/other animals who love to go outside). I will take pictures to send to the animal's owners, record medical information, clean up after the pets/bathroom area, and take on any other needed requests. I will ask questions and get to know what I can/can’t do with the pets before I try to do anything! I am very flexible, and I am here to help you and make your life easier!

“Lauren was awesome to work with, she was reliable and sent daily pictures that made me feel so much better about being away. We will definitely book her again!”

About: I have owned a dog since I could remember, every time I see a dog, my head goes out the window because I am such a dog lover. I will not only treat your dog like a pet, but like a member of the family, as he/she is a member. I will walk your dog, feed, in-home visits, etc. It would be an honor to be able to be around dogs all day. I would love the opportunity to keep your fur babies safe, healthy and having fun throughout the day. I have plenty of experience raising a dog in the family and I will treat your dog like my own family dog. You can ensure that you can put your fur babies trust in me.

“Cindy is great! She is attentive and always sends a report.”

About: I’ve taken care of many pups over the years. I grew up with dogs and don’t currently have any of my own so I will treat your furry friends as my own🐾 I have availability for day checks and stay-cations! I do work full time, but should be able to keep your furry family happy and healthy! Message me for more details and we can work something out! I do not offer in home care at my house, but I have experience both checking in and staying in others’ homes with their furry friends🐾

About: I’ve had dogs all my life all kinds of breeds and behaviors! I currently have 2 dogs of my own who I work on grooming, do lots of enrichment, cooperative care and dog sports with! I assist many classes at Canine Karma as well, so I am very familiar with dogs body language. I am currently in between jobs, and looking for something to do while I look! I prefer early mornings, and mid day, but my availability is flexible I know how worrisome it can be when other people are watching your dogs, I am very communicative and will do anything to make sure your dog is safe and comfortable!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always been told I have a “way with animals.” I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs before. Whether it’s a tiny tea cup dog or a large lab with more energy that they can contain, I’ve seen it all. I’m currently a senior in high school and play club volleyball. I have a part time job but am looking to gain more experience before college. Being a pet sitter and walking fits great for me since it’s a flexible schedule. I already take care of my own dog and cat at home and would love to add more pets to that list. As an athlete I am able to match your pets energy. I’m able to run around with them and throw their toys for as long as they may need it. I’m always down to explore new places on walks in any weather.

About: Hi, I've taken care of a lot of pets :) I'm normally the go to pet whisper in my family. I've pet sat for my family and friends and I'm working on training my dog right now. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats I promise your pets will be in great hands with me :). My normal daily routine is walks/ letting them out in my fenced in backyard and giving them lots of love and affection, we play with toys and make sure their food and water is filled up. In my house I have 3 dogs and 2 cats, I fenced in backyard and harnesses for all sizes and toys for all sizes :)

About: I have been helping take care of dogs since I was in high school. I have many years experience with home and pet sitting. I can also administer medications including vaccines. I am currently looking to do pet sitting full time and have a very open schedule, so I am very flexible in what days I can sit. I will no longer be accepting clients if it is within a week of booking, as that does not give me time to properly look into who I accept as a client. I am also requiring a meet and greet at least a week in advance to see if your dogs are properly trained and will listen to basic commands, and to make sure the house is clean and liveable for the time I will be there. I plan on utilizing what is available at your house, but I also plan on taking your pet for car rides or to parks to enjoy the outdoors, if that is something they are allowed. I can’t stay at a house or get dogs out of a house with cats. I am highly allergic to them, so it has to be a dog only household. I am currently only able to stay at your home as an option, as my household has dog unfriendly dogs.

About: I have many years working with animals! I first got my dog for my Master’s graduation present! In the time of receiving her I have trained my dog to do 7 tricks in a couple weeks. She knows how to sit, stay, lay down, play dead, dance, come, up and down as well amongst training her how to walk properly on a leash and potty trained. Currently my schedule is wide open so I would be available for you and your family/dog as needed! I am eager to get to know your dog! I can pet sit for your dog. I care for my dog by walking her and getting her outside to play fetch with her favorite tennis ball. For your pet I would walk them, play with them, also can stay and sit for trips.

About: I have worked in the vet field as a vet assistant for 9 years . I have owned animals since I could remember and caring for animals is all I know !

Updates always! I like to send pictures and text messages updating owners how the pet is doing and what activities we do. I always greet the pets first and I like to greet with a preferred snack of pet and owners choice . Checking if need food or water / refreshing water bowls and scheduled feedings . Letting them outside to use restroom and a small play session with their pick of toy / activity . Giving praise and a treat . Lots more love before leaving and I always like to give them a favorite toy or sometimes owner have preferred going away treats when they leave the house. Gives a pet comfort and distraction when leaving.

About: I am an avid dog lover and lover of all animals!! We treat our dogs like people, but more importantly they are our family. I will come to your home and watch your babies in the comfort of their own space. I work remote, so I can work from your home. I love all kinds of dogs as long as they don't bite strangers :) I take photos or videos everyday and send them to you, but sometimes I send them to your personal phone and not the app, so it affects my photo rating on here.
