About: As a lifelong passionate pet owner and caretaker, I've cared for cats and dogs since childhood, and I have experience caring for chickens, bunnies, snakes and other animals too. I have also cared for senior pets, with many different health needs, such as administering medication multiple times per day and ensuring their well-being with extra care and attention. I would love to take your dog for long walks, hikes, and outdoor playtime. I also have a green thumb too! I am happy to tend to your plants with care. Your pets and plants are in capable and loving hands! I work part-time and am available consistently early mornings, weeknights, and weekends. Depending on my schedule and the location of the sit, I can also visit for a potty-break during lunch or early afternoon. Let's schedule a chat to make sure my schedule is best for your needs! I am available to care for your pets in your home, I do not offer boarding in my home at this time. It's important to me to be a safe and trust-worthy caretaker, let's chat about your needs and requirements!

“I was worried about leaving my beloved elderly pup (14 years young) but Jenna made my fears disappear. Jenna stayed at my house while we were away on vacation and sent daily updates (including photos) on how things were going. Everything was great, my pup was happy to be at home in a familiar environment. Jenna was also great in working with our schedule as our flight was canceled and then we were delayed coming home. I would defiantly recommend Jenna and would use her again in the future!”


“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”


“Rebecca was awesome dog sitting our pup for about 10 days, she went above and beyond taking care of a few things around the house that she didn't have to, and we were in frequent communication. Highly recommend Rebecca dog sitting, she is very trustworthy and reliable!”


“She is the best! Wrigley was so well taken care of. I couldn't have asked for anyone better. Samantha stayed 5 days so he could remain I. His own environment. She followed his routine, sent me pictures a couple of times a day and loved him like her own. I would highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”


About: What Sets Me Apart in Pet Sitting Services: ✅ Cat-Centric Experience – Many sitters focus on dogs, but I specialize in feline care. I understand cat behavior, body language, and how to build trust—even with shy or anxious cats. ✅ Personalized Attention – I don’t just “check in”—I engage. Each visit is tailored to your pet’s specific needs, routines, and personality. ✅ Reliable & Communicative – You’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I send consistent updates, photos, and even videos, so you stay connected while you’re away. ✅ Medication & Special Care Expertise – Comfortable administering oral medication, eye drops, or specialized care for senior or special-needs pets. ✅ Calm & Trustworthy Presence – Animals (especially cats!) respond best to calm energy and a gentle approach. I pride myself on being a steady, stress-free presence in your pet’s routine. ✅ Respect for Your Home – I treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pets—leaving it tidy, secure, and exactly as you left it. I currently work full time, 2 off days typically during the week. I can come early in the mornings before work to feed/let dogs out. Then in the afternoon I can come back walk dogs/play with pets and feed them. I do not offer care for pets in my house. I only offer pet sitting at a clients house. Let me know if you have any questions.

About: Hello! My name is Wesley! I'm a dedicated animal lover with a soft spot for cats of all ages and personalities. I offer pet sitting at my place (Milford, OH), and we can make deals for transportation. I have had more than 12 cats, and I have no pets at the moment, making it more comfortable for your cat if you need to leave your pet at my place while you are on a trip. I work from home and don't have kids, so I am fully dedicated to your kitty. My house is large, with many comfortable places for the cat and a morning room (with a net) with a nice view of my private external garden. What kind of services are you looking for? I work from home, so I am fully dedicated to your cat almost 24 hours daily. My wife also loves pets and will be around to ensure your cat is having a good time. We don't have kids or other pets, so your cat will have the entire house. I have a large house with 2700 sqft, including a private yard with a large morning room (with net), so your pet can enjoy internal and external areas safely.

“This review is going to be unlike most reviews you read on here. Sure, Megan played with my dog and took pictures and videos. Megan did much more, she most likely saved my dog's life. Our sweet little Winnie is your typical knuckleheaded Pitbull who ate part of a ball the day before we left. Megan updated us every time she got sick and her eventual listlessness. Megan was concerned, as were we. A family member got Winnie to the vet and as suspected a total obstruction of the large intestine with about 6 hours to live. All turned out well thanks to Megan being on top of her dog watching game, she undoubtedly saved Winnie's life.”

Jaqueline d.
“Jaqueline has been a wonderful, reliable, caring pet sitter for my dog. When he is with her I know he is getting all the care and cuddles and walks and play time he needs, she has taken care of him when he's been on medication, and helped comfort him through his greatest fear--thunderstorms. She has cared for him while I've been away during long-term trips as well as pinching in for short/last minute help, taking care of him like he's her own furry family. I would whole-heartedly recommend Jaqueline to anyone looking for someone to look after their pets.”

“I highly recommend Olivia as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. Having grown up with a variety of pets—cats, dogs, ferrets, gerbils, and more—Olivia has always had a natural affinity for animals of all shapes and sizes. She's taken care of my pets on numerous occasions, always showing them love and attention. I’ve been impressed by how she documents her time with them on social media, whether they’re playing fetch, cuddling, or learning new commands like sit and heel. Olivia’s dedication and care are evident in everything she does, making her a fantastic choice for anyone in need of pet sitting, walking, or home tending services. Just a heads up, she’s not a fan of spiders—so perhaps someone else for that job!”
