House Sitting in North Star

“Bren is awesome! Our original dog sitter fell through thus we found ourselves in a predicament and using someone new is nerve-racking, especially last minute. However, Bren made the entire experience smooth, easy and most importantly her passion for dogs was obvious. She watched pups at our house which allowed for them to keep their normal routine and she also made sure to send lots of pictures while we were gone so we knew our pups were getting loved on while we were away. When we arrived home our house was in perfect shape and our fur babies were happy as can be! So glad we found Bren - we plan on hiring her again and again!”

About: I have cared for cats and many different breads of dogs over the past several years. Not only will I provide quality care for your pet(s), but I will love them as if they were my own. My availability to care for your pets in your home is flexible. I am open to daytime, evening, or overnight hours. I am also available for extended time periods while you are away. I will come to your home to care for your pet(s), which will allow them to remain in the comfort, safety and security of their familiar environment.

About: I have always been around and loved animals.. I started pet sitting when I was in a single mom and working in the schools. I would care for dogs and house sit when coworkers went on vacation. Then I did some child care and pet sitting for weekends when coworkers went out town for emergencies. I have had many beloved pets growing up; cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, and hamsters. Currently, I have a 2 dogs, cat and pet pig that is house trained. Caring for my animals bring so much joy and happiness especially watching them play with each other like children. I promise you I will care for your pets just like they were my own. I will provide you with photos for reaccurance and updates while under my care. I can"t wait to meet you and your pets :)

“Maura was amazing! Dependable and left the house immaculate (with two German Shepherds that speaks volumes!). Very communicative! Would definitely recommend!”

About: I've worked at a doggy day care from 2023-2025 and only stopped because I moved to Ohio from out of state. I have limited puppy training experience, and a good understanding of dog and cat behavior. I also have reptile experience as I owned a California King Snake before moving. Available Monday through Friday from 10am-3:30pm. Saturday from 9am-12pm. I am currently taking time away from working, so I have plenty of time to spend helping take care of your pets! And I will treat every animal with the same level of compassion and respect, because I know that they are more than just animals you live with. I am always alert and watching the mood of animals, so I will be able to ensure they are safe and get along. Crating or separating if needed. And I can help with administering medications.

“Kaitlin has stayed at our house multiple times. She leaves the house spotless. She’s very attentive to details and I trust her implicitly with my home and my animals. Definitely rebooking.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 4 when I got my first dog. I currently have two cats and would love a dog but my schedule won't provide me enough time to take proper care of one. I am great with training puppies and giving medications. I’m currently a Preschool Intervention Specialist and have my own special education preschool classroom through Lima City Schools. I currently teach August-May. My availability mainly opens up during the summer but love to help out during the school year around my teaching contract. I look forward to working with you! I am currently off for the summer so I can attend to pet care as much or as little as you need. During the school year as long as your schedule works around my teaching contract, I will be able to help you out as much as I can! I have plenty of experience with small, medium, and big dogs. I would prefer to come to you but in the need to have your pet at my house, I am able to crate dogs as needed at my home as my house has an extra room. Plus my cats are very friendly or just stay to themselves so your animals will be in great care.

“Highly recommend Amy! Plenty of pictures & videos! Great communication! Dogs were happy & healthy! The house was even clean when we returned! Couldn’t ask for a better a sitter for my pups! Will be using Amy again!”

“Ben did such a great job! Even my shy and less friendly cats grew to like him and be out and about the house when he was here. He sent me daily updates and some great photos. Truly the most relaxed I’ve been on a vacation recently, knowing my cats and my house were in such good hands.”

About: I have always cared for my friends animals when they are traveling and I also have had my cat Nola for 5 years. I’m also familiar with animals having anxiety and how to care for them by creating a routine that’s safe and fun. I have an open schedule currently so I’m open to flexibility during the day and some afternoons. I’m on break from my Masters program so my time is pretty open. I would make sure that any special needs your sweet baby needs is taken care of with extreme amount of love and care. I understand how important it is to be gentle especially when meeting new pets who might have anxiety.

About: I grew up with 3 large breed dogs and have done 2 years of dog walking / pet sitting! During my 2 years of pet sitting, I took care of puppies from 6 weeks old to senior dogs. Things that fell under the description of ‘took care of’ are; picking up poop, feeding / following dietary schedules, administering medications, walks, play time, bathroom breaks, training work, mental stimulation (snuffle mats, kongs, etc.) I do daily dog walks, and am helping my parents raise and train a German shepherd! I also have 2 cats of my own at home. I will travel to your home by car! I do not offer care for your pets in my home due to my cats not being very sociable haha!!

“Tatum was the most respectful, loving, and caring sitter for my new puppy! She was very knowledgeable about dogs! She did everything I asked and followed directions clearly. Tatum also sent me a ton of pictures and text updates throughout her stay at my apartment. I am so happy I found her as my sitter!!! After I had a tough time with a different sitter in the past, she definitely made me feel comforted that my puppy was taken care of. Very professional care! I will be using her as much as possible!”
