About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 25 years and have experience with both cats and dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, cleaning, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and treat every home and pet with respect. I also provide regular updates so you always know how your pets are doing. I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-in visits throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I can work around your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. I’m available on weekends and can often accommodate last-minute requests. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I also have a fenced-in yard for safe, supervised outdoor time if needed for dogs. During each visit, I make sure food and water are fresh, litter boxes or potty breaks are handled, and your pet gets attention based on their personality. I follow all care instructions closely, keep your home secure, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.

About: I’ve had a lot of experience with many types of dogs, from family to strangers I really just love animals. I’m very reliable and don’t really want your pet going without what it needs! I currently have a part time job so I have plenty of time in my schedule to walk or check in on your cut pets. I have one dog, daisy, she is an indoor dog who is very spoiled but also very well taken care of. Trust me she has more toys than she needs :)

Vivien stepped in at the last minute and took awesome care of our mischievous pup! Our 50 pound pup refused to go into her crate and Vivien managed to pick her up and gave her some love.❤️

Lauren is awesome with my dogs. Shes always very sweet to them and notifies me if their tummies are upset. She even helped clean up a mess so I wouldn't step in it when I got home. Her and her family have been such a great help. I can't say enough positive things.

I have a broken foot and cannot walk my senior dog Dusty. I was leery to hire someone I didn't know. Mark was amazing with Dusty !. He got right down on the floor to greet and play with him. He even coaxed Dusty to take a longer walk. I highly recommend him for his positive and eager approach to dogs.

About: I have had dogs my whole life! People have called me an “animal lover” since I was very young. Sometimes, spending time with animals is more enjoyable to me than spending time with people. I have a lot of energy to play and run and cuddle with your doggos! I am open, enthusiastic, silly, playful and fun with humans and with dogs :) I will treat your dogs as my own. I can’t think of a more rewarding way to spend my time than being loving and kind to your dogs while you are away. My schedule is flexible and I am a very understanding person who will follow your instructions thoroughly. I am confident in my ability to walk and take care of dogs! I am wide open and ready to hang with your dogs! I want this to be my full time job, so i am leaving my schedule open to accommodate accordingly :) I have 2 dogs, one is 3 and the other is 6. I walk them atleast twice a day, play fetch often, and cuddle them 24/7. I make sure they have the best food and that they are happy and healthy :) It's my main purpose in life. Spending time and taking care of and playing with animals is pure bliss to me. It is an honor to know them and love them. I basically give them all my time and energy. I dont usually spend more than 4 hours away bc i dont want them to be lonely. I will do the same with your babies.

About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician at a shelter I used to volunteer for, and have had my own dogs and cats my entire life. I’ve recently gone part-time and would enjoy walking your pets or stopping in for those needed potty breaks. I used to walk dogs for the shelter I now work at. I also foster animals for them, most dogs and puppies. I work at the shelter Thursdays and Fridays. I am available other days of the week on a part-time basis. I don’t have preferred days in mind at this time. I will certainly follow all instructions provided and will treat your pet as my own while in my care. I will respect and properly care for your home environment.

About: I’m an elementary teacher looking to spend my extra time caring for animals this summer! I’ve had many different experiences watching dogs and cats over the years. From puppies to senior dogs, I have watched dogs for weeks at a time, or just taken them on walks. I’m also part of the facility dog program at my school and have been trained to work with our dog there! I hope you consider me to care for your pet, I can assure you they would be well loved! Since I’m a teacher, I have my summers off! I’m typically busier on weekends, but I have a very flexible schedule. I’m open to discussing what your needs are to see if I can work it in! I do not currently offer services for pets in my home, however when I'm caring for pets in a client's home I follow any instructions they may have. This pertains to any animal I care for.

About: I’ve taken care of family & friends pets since I was young. This has included overnights & multiple day stays, quick stops to allow a potty break & play time, or just a quick walk. I have cared for dogs under 1 year of age and elders requiring close attention and medication. I follow your guidelines and instructions regarding your pets care! Ensuring your pet is well taken care of and providing you peace of mind is my top priority. I have grown up with a pet consistently in the household and have a dog myself! I am currently a law student at UT! This is my only source of income and fits into my breaks from class. I already love to go on walks and spend time with animals for a much needed mental break from schoolwork. As much as I am a source of love for your pet, they are a source for me as well! I can easily crate your pet and give medication if needed. I do not discipline unless you express that as a request. I am very patient and positive with animals. I will only enter the parts of your home where the dog is located unless told otherwise. I can simultaneously water any plants or do small house chores if you need!

About: I've had pets ever since I was a young pup myself. I can tell when they need something and love taking care of animals when they need it the most! My family loves animals as well! We have 3 dogs (2 small and 1 medium). Let us share our love with your little one for awhile! I'm a military vet and stay at home father. My wife is currently Active Duty Navy and mother of 3 beautiful young ladies. I spend most of my day with my 2 dogs. We go to the park l, car rides, and other fun activities. I have a large & friendly neighborhood with plenty of places to explore. We encourage walking for both the pet and our own health. We have 2 friendly and playful dogs to keep your fur baby company as well! If there are any medications or special needs, we will make sure your baby is taken care of! They are family! Our dogs live a good life. They have beds, treats, toys and a loving family. Our kids and their friends love to take them outside and run with them! We keep our pets up on their shots and will do anything we can to make sure your pups enjoy themselves. We brush our pups twice a week. Bathe them 2x a month. (They like a little dirt on them for awhile) we take walks and runs every week to keep us all in shape and limber. I provide my pups with joint support treats everyday. Our pets are crated at night to prevent any accidents. Whatever your pet is use to is what we will attempt to accommodate. We currently have a fenced backyard and friendly neighbors with pets as well.

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages and personalities, including puppies, senior pets, shy cats, and high-energy dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications if needed, and giving pets lots of attention and patience. My schedule is pretty flexible, and pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and just spending time with animals throughout the day. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I always make sure pets are safe, secure, and comfortable. I treat your home with the same respect as my own and your pets with the same love I give mine.

About: I have had pets my whole entire life and helped my dad and stepmom with their dog rescue. I love being around animals more than people ;-) Currently not working and wanting to only do things that bring me joy. Animals do that for me 100% and I will always treat them as if they were my own. I have a fenced in yard for my Bailey, our 1 and half year old Saint Berdoodle who absolutely loves everyone. I walk her with a vest because she will take off on me. My cat, Jack, is an indoor cat and only got out one time. He was so scared but I just grabbed a towel, cuddled him to me, and he calmed down immediately.

About: Hi! My name is April. I am 37 and I have two pups of my own named Gemma and Foxy. In my free time, I volunteer with Lucas County Canine Care and Control walking dogs. I have had dogs my entire life and I love them all big or small. I am a self employed hair stylist with no kids so I do have a fair amount of free time. I love being outdoors and visiting local metro parks in my spare time. I know it’s hard having pets, kids, and working a full time job. If your dog could use a little exercise or just a drop in visit, I would love to help out. Thank you for considering me! I do work Tuesday-Saturday at my job. My hours vary though so depending on the day I am available at different times of the day. I have two small dogs of my own. Gemma is a 2 year old yorkie that loves everyone. She can be intimidated by larger dogs but she’s very friendly. My older dog Foxy is a 14 year old pomchi and she can be a little on the sassy side. We love visiting middlegrounds dog park to play with friends or just taking walks in the neighborhood.
