“Susan was exceptional and went over and above what was required of her. I would HIGHLY recommend her. My cat Mysti responded to her very well and I only had Mysti for 3 weeks. You cannot go wrong with this sitter. We actually used her services for 4 days and she was On time and did everything she was asked and then some. She also included photos of Mysti and I could tell Mysti was very happy. Marguerite S.”


“Heather was fantastic with my cats! She went the extra mile and took care of my cats as if they were her own. I will absolutely rebook her in the future!”


“Angel was super attentive to my cats while I was away, and coordinated with me through complicated travel schedules to make sure they would get the care that they need! I’m super thankful for her 💙”


“I am beyond grateful for Alison’s exceptional care of my dog. Not only did they provide all the basics—feeding, walks, and playtime—but they went the extra mile to make sure my dog was safe during a snowstorm. She was incredibly. It was evident that Alison thought about my dog and when above and beyond and truly cares about animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, thank you for your kindness and dedication!”


“We are more than pleased with Kathleen. Our kitties warmed up to her quickly and she sent us cute photos each day she went to check in. She even took out the garbage and brought in our mail. We will definitely book with her again!!”


“Lots of great updates, looked like they had great quality time together! Brought peace of mind to see pics of my kitty having such a fun time when I had to find someone to take care of her at the last minute”


“Corey is the best! He has been regularly dropping in on my two pups for a few weeks now and they absolutely love him. He is reliable, punctual, and just has a kind and calming presence. He knows and understands dogs well, and that experience shows. I would trust him with my pets any day!”


“Kelsey was very professional and easy to communicate with. My extremely shy cats were so at ease that they came out of hiding and actually played with her and allowed her to pet them! After the first visit, I didn't feel worried at all about them, knowing that Kelsey was checking in on them and sending me detailed updates. Got some wonderful photos as well!”



“I have used Saul numerous times for drop in visits. It is great to have him as a resource. My needs can be very last minute and he has been very reliable and accommodating - and my dog has a lot of fun with Saul. I very much recommend him.”


“Kathleen was amazing! Her communication was very fast and detailed. She also watched all 3 of our dogs and had no issues. She was honest and I had no problem or issues trusting her not only with our 3 dogs but also our home. I will definitely be asking her to watch our babies again! If you want someone caring, reliable, and loving to your pets go to Kathleen!”

“Megan has taken care of Peaches for me several times. I really appreciate knowing there is someone I can count on to take good care of my fur baby when I am gone. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets”


“Georgina has been doing drop in visits on our girl Josie for the past few months and she's been great. Josie is a 6 month old lab with lots of energy and she gives her the opportunity to run and play throughout the day while we are at work. She's been reliable and respectful of our home. She's also been very accommodating while we've had some work done on the exterior of our home and didn't have access to the fenced-in back yard. She's even taken her on walks without us asking her to. We appreciate the care she's given Josie and will continue to request visits from her in the future.”


About: I have a golden retriever myself who is 4 and have grown up with dogs my whole life on a farm. I work remote so I have quite a bit of availability and love animals :) Pet care fits into my routine daily I work remote 7:30-4pm and I love getting out of the house and being active. Animals take priority to me above all! I care for pets in my home by ensuring they have space, toys, and owner approved treats. I try to keep them happy and entertained at all times.

“Bethany stopped in a couple times to take care of our cat Chip while we were out of town for a long weekend. She was extremely friendly and professional during our meet and greet and very detail oriented with all of the instructions. She sent pictures while visiting with him over the weekend. We would definitely book her again!”


About: ✅ Why Book With Me? - I only board one pet at a time — so your pet gets 1:1 care and all the snuggles they deserve. - Fully insured through both Rover Guarantee + my personal Pet Care Insurance for extra peace of mind. - Clean, adorable downtown Cincinnati high-rise — no clutter, no chaos. Just a cozy, calm home. 🐾 Experience You Can Trust With over a decade of experience caring for dogs and cats, I’ve handled just about every personality, routine, and quirk you can think of: - Pets with severe anxiety - Pets needing oral meds, ear drops, eye drops, or feeding support - Pets with appetite issues in new homes (yes, I’ve boiled chicken at midnight) - Flight risks or known escape artists (I triple-check doors and leash fittings) - Picky sleepers, potty strugglers, food thieves — I've seen it all 🛏️ What Your Pet Gets - A calm, pet-friendly space with plenty of cozy spots to lounge - No other animals or children — your pet is the star - Daily updates with photos + videos - Cuddles in bed (if allowed!) - Extra-long walks if needed to help them settle in 💬 A Note About My Home I live with my boyfriend. If your pet is shy/initially fearful of men, just let me know — I’m experienced with slow, low-pressure introductions. For pets with intense fear or aggression toward men, I may decline for everyone’s comfort. 💖 Why I Do This I don’t have a pet of my own right now (travel makes it tricky), so I pour my energy into giving yours the love and attention I’d give to my own.

On weekends, I’m typically available 24/7 and love taking dogs on my long walks to green spaces in downtown & OTR. Your pet will have full access to all furniture and my bed, if that’s what they’re used to. I want them to feel completely safe, relaxed, and cared for while they’re with me. My downtown high-rise apartment is clean, pet-friendly, and ideal for dogs who do best in calm, low-distraction spaces. I only host one pet at a time, so your dog gets all of my attention. I live with my animal-loving boyfriend, who is happy to hang out with your furry friend. That said, I’ll decline bookings for pets who are fearful of men — it’s better for everyone’s comfort.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life and of all ages. but I have specifically taken care of puppies and middle age dogs. Those dogs I have worked with the most with. I had a senior dog in my household that I took care of until she unfortunately passed from cancer and I had administered medication to her and such. I have also taken in 2 foster dogs one with separation anxiety and other medication issues due to being in the shelter. I would have to give her medication and baths on the regular due to her having multiple accidents in her crate. With the second dog they were a 2 month old puppy that I fostered for a weekend and took to an adoption event where they had gotten adopted. I want to make sure all animals are loved and cared for while there owners are away and so that the owner don’t have to worry and know there fur babies are okay. I take care of my pets at home already so it’s really just a built in thing for my schedule. It’s an easy thing to do during the day or to end your day with as well so it all just fits in nicely. And who doesn’t want to end their day with some snuggles. I want to treat my clients pets how I would want my pets treated. I wouldn’t mind any them to be pushed to the side or just be let out and then leave I would want my pets to be played with and have some attention and love before heading out just so they know that someone is looking out for them until their owners are back
