Anita is fabulous. She is promot in her communication and reliable in her follow through. She is caring and takes care of our buddy like her own. She has been helping us with his care for last two years. I can not say enough positive things about her.

Kristen is AMAZING. I met her on rover, no word of mouth or anything and she's more than proven herself to be reliable, caring, and friendly. She's very quick with communication and super diligent in her care. She provided plenty of pictures every time she walked and even took pictures and gave love to my cat while she was around. She's also very flexible and understanding with schedules. I'd highly recommend her to anyone who needs a doting, friendly, and compassionate person to entrust their pets with.

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart—especially after caring for my own sweet Bella, who bravely faced mouth cancer until she passed in December 2023. Helping her eat, move, and feel loved during that time taught me patience, compassion, and the true meaning of care. I also care for Bulleit, our Frenchie, who’s overcome two spine surgeries and may not walk like he used to, but still lives every day with joy and spirit. With over 5 years of experience, I treat every pet like family—giving them the love, attention, and gentle support they need. Whether it’s slow, comforting walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and truly cared for. I can’t wait to meet your special companion and be their loving second best friend. I currently work second shift from 4 PM to 12:30 AM, so my mornings and afternoons are free—perfect for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving your pet plenty of attention during the day. I’m also fully available on weekends, making it easy to provide consistent care and companionship whenever your furry friend needs it most. This schedule allows me to focus on making sure every pet I care for feels happy, loved, and well looked after throughout the day. Whether caring for pets in their own home or mine, safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment where pets feel comfortable and relaxed. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions closely—whether it’s about feeding, medication, or special needs—and make sure to keep dangerous items out of reach. At my home, I provide a pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play and rest, free from hazards. In your home, I respect your space and routine, keeping everything just as you like it while giving your pet loving attention and companionship. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, ready to respond calmly to any situation, ensuring they stay safe, happy, and stress-free at all times.

About: I have had pets my whole life and have always taken part in the care that comes with them. To go along with that, I have been riding horses for almost 5 years which plays a big part in my life and has taught me how to properly care for large animals that require hard work, focus, and dedication. Fortunately, this has allowed me to connect with individuals needing pet care and gain knowledge and experience. I am currently a sophomore at Ohio University and will be home for winter break! I will be home with FULL availability from December 13th until January 9th! When trusted with another's pet, I ensure a safe and happy environment will be provided, allowing proper care. I have two golden doodles and recently lost a dog who was diabetic and required specific individual care. I spend a lot of time keeping my dogs active, healthy, and happy. Prior to college I rode horses which played a big role in my life. I rode 4-5 times a week and took time to ensure the horses needs were fulfilled.

Blake is absolutely THE BEST!!!! He is so great with my pit bull, Tereo. She is staring at the door whining until she sees him in the afternoon. She adores him! He has such a huge heart for animals and it shows in his interactions with her. He is prompt, is flexible with our schedule, and has become one of Tereo’s favorite people to see. Thanks so much for all you do, Blake!!! ???

Awia is the kindest, sweetest and most patient person in the world. She got my puppy to trust her the first day even though they didn’t go for a walk. And the second day, Fiona was her best friend. Highly recommend Awia.

About: I have had my own dog since I was five when I named my Doberman Rommel. (History nut even then.) Around New Albany people see me walking my dog constantly. All weather every day twice a day. Long walks that allow my dog LuLu to explore and destress. Best thing for them. I love dogs and almost always, they love me right back. I'm patient, protective, and I know dogs are family! I work from home and I'm semi-retired so my schedule is as flexible as it gets. I can make almost any days and times work and boarding is always a possibility if you don't mind your dog getting an overload of attention! I have a fenced yard and an overly friendly senior mutt. I'm also always aware of other dogs when I walk and I know how to prevent problems before they happen. I owned a Golden Retriever and larger dogs in the past so big breeds aren't a problem.

About: I’m a nurse that loves to be around animals on my days off. Playing and taking care of animals just brings so much joy. I just love all fur babies :) I am a nurse so my schedule is not consistent but since I have four days off a week, I can try and be flexible! Animals like to be sneaky so I make sure they can’t sneak out the door when I open it and don’t get stuck in any cabinets inside

Jessica, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such amazing care of our sweet Oliver. We truly don’t know what we would have done without you — we had to leave at the very last minute, and you absolutely saved us. Oliver is usually very shy and cautious with new people, but somehow you worked magic and won his little heart right away. Knowing he was with you gave us so much peace of mind. He was not just taken care of — he was loved. We are beyond grateful to you and would trust you with Oliver again in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything 🤍🐶

About: I have had pets in my household since I was a baby. I have experience taking care of my own pets and others' in my hometown. I enjoy learning new things so I am flexible with any needs your pet has! I am a college student with a part time job so my schedule varies. My general availability is Monday after 12:30 PM; Tuesday after 4:30 PM; Wednesday after 12:30 PM; Thursday 11:30-1 PM & after 4:30 PM; Friday after 12:30 PM; Saturday all day, and Sunday varies. As I do not get to be around many pets being in college, this is my outlet to spend time with animals outside of my campus! I am adaptable to any lifestyle your pet may have and will provide the same care I would to my animals. I strongly believe in your privacy and any boundaries you may have. I will make it a priority to respect your space and any requests you mention.
