About: I love dogs! I take them on walks, day trips, and I do week-long stays. I’ve cared for multiple dogs at once, including a variety of breeds and ages. I have a little special talent of teaching dogs new tricks! Growing up I have always been told I have a genuine bond for all dogs. Whether it’s a fun walk or a relaxing day, I ensure they’re happy and well cared for. As a college student home for the summer, I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your pets! I love spending time with animals and can easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and house stays ranging from a couple of nights to even a full week. While there are a few weeks I’ll be out of town, I’m happy to work around those dates and be as flexible as possible to meet your needs! When I care for a client’s pets in their home, I treat them with the same love and attention I would as if they were mine. I follow their daily routine closely, including their feeding, walks, play time, or just sitting with them so they feel safe and comforted. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I do my best to make them feel calm, happy, and loved. I also take care of the home with respect and keep everything clean and in order. I truly enjoy bonding with each pet and always keep the owners updated with cute photos and videos, so they know their pets are in good hands.

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and have raised puppies and kittens. I have dog/cat sit since high school and have always enjoyed our furry friends! I currently am in my Graduate Program at UD and have plenty of time to take care of your lovely animals! My availability is fairly open and varies day-to-day as I am a current student at The University of Dayton and am also a student-athlete. Let me know your schedule and we can work something out ASAP! As an animal-lover and owner myself, I know how important it is for your believed fur baby to feel safe, comforted, and at peace. I am prepared to make your fur baby’s day whether it be playing in the yard, a nice walk, or chilling on the couch!

“Keira is a great dog walker. She’s responsible and reliable and always takes a cute pic on her walk. She responds quickly and is very friendly.”

Tanya S.

“Shaelyn was awesome with Jasper and he seemed very comfortable around her. He is normally a shy dog around new people so I was very happy he didn't seem to have any issues.”

Kyle D.

“I needed someone to take my Sam for a walk because I was unable to walk him due to an injury. It was a few days since I have walked him and he was very sad.. I looked at many profiles and I chose Katie! She made room in her schedule to come by same day with not much notice. Katie arrived a few minutes early and she met Sam and he loved her instantly so did I! I will definitely be using Katie on a regular basis.”

Jacqueline H.

“Haley has been incredibly responsive from the very beginning, even meeting with us ahead of time before scheduling. She’s warm, friendly, and so understanding with our pup, Cosmo. He tends to be shy at first, but Haley’s gentle approach has really helped him start to come out of his shell. We truly appreciate her patience and the thoughtful updates she provides after each visit. We’re so glad to have her as part of Cosmo’s care going forward!”

About: I have pet-sat a variety of animals my whole life. I am very responsible and interested in making you and your pets life easier! I have experice dog walking, dog sitting, cat sitting, and reptile sitting. I have a very flexible schedule and am able to fit pet sitting in multiple times a day. Mornings, nights, and any odd hours, I'm here to help! I am always super loving towards pets. I will treat your pets with kindness and respect. Their saftey and happiness is my number one priotiy.

About: Providing care for dogs, cats, ferrets, fish, turtles, and birds since I was a kid. Neighbors, friends, and clients seek me out because I care for their pets like they're my own. I work remote so I have time and flexibility to provide your pets with attention and care. My weekends are normally pretty flexible too. Ready to give all the pets love and snuggles! I am able to follow a schedule and instructions if the client wishes or I can determine appropriate care. I have experience administering some medication.

About: I’ve always had small dogs — it’s kind of a family tradition. (Mostly Chihuahuas… if you’ve met one, you know exactly what that means! 🥴😝) I also walk my aunt’s dog, who’s a little bigger, and I’m usually the one friends call when they need someone to care for their pets — dogs or cats — while they’re away. After 13+ years in retail (yes, at Old Navy — and no, it’s not like the commercials 😅), I realized my real passion has always been spending time with animals. I’m kind, patient, and protective, and I genuinely enjoy giving pets the time, affection, and attention they deserve. So if you’re looking for someone dependable who will treat your pets like family — I’m your person. (And hey, if your pets have tiny wardrobes, I’m great at folding those too! 😝) I’m currently working full-time in retail, but I’m hoping to transition into pet care full-time. My goal is to establish regular clients so I can eventually dedicate all my time to caring for dogs and cats. For now, I’m flexible with my retail schedule and happy to work around it to make sure your pets get the care and attention they need. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and loved. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine — feeding schedule, favorite toys, walks, and any special needs or habits. If I’m watching pets in a client’s home, I make sure to keep things consistent with their normal routine so they feel relaxed. I give plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention, and I always keep food and water areas clean. I also send photo updates so owners know their pets are happy and cared for. If I’m caring for animals in my own home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment — secure spaces for cats to explore, comfy spots for naps, and safe outdoor time (if allowed). I treat every pet as if they’re my own, because that’s what I’d want for my animals too. While my own yard is smaller and perfect for my small dogs, my sister has a much larger yard, and she’s given me full access to her home and property whenever needed. That means I have plenty of safe space available for bigger dogs to play and get the exercise they need.

About: I've had dogs ever since I was 10, but my experience with them goes far beyond that. When I was a little kid, before I ever had a dog, I would go to this read with a dog program called "Paws to Read." I would spend countless hours reading to the dogs and befriending them, along with a cat or two here and there. When I was 10, I got my first dog, a husky, and gave him a wonderful life. He had quite a few medical issues and behaved older for his age because of it, so I know how to provide senior pet care. He has since passed, but my two current dogs, one pitbull and one pitsky, remind me every day how important pets are to me. I've had them both for eight years now, during which we've taken numerous car rides, walks, enjoyed outside and inside playtime, movie nights, and anything a dog could dream of. Now, while I've never had a cat because of the majority of my family being allergic, I never turn away from a cat. I'm a regular at the Gem City Catfe, where I play with the cats often and have gone so often that they are comfortable with me. I keep cat and dog treats on me in case I come across a stray, because all cats and dogs deserve to feel some love. I've also dog-sat and house-sat for a few friends before, so I know how to handle situations like pets not getting along, bathroom accidents, and being a bit of a picky eater. Currently, I am a full time student and work as a part time tutor. My classes typically consist of Monday, Wednesday, Friday 9-2:15 and Tuesday and Thursdays 11-1:45. Then, I work 3:30-6:30 (sometimes 7:30) as a tutor When it comes to my pets and caring for clients pets, the comfort of the pet is most important to me. Personally, my two dogs don't get along with each other very well, so they typically have to be separated. Even so, I always make sure to treat them both equally and give them lots of love! If I take one for a car ride and ice cream, I bring ice cream back for the other and take the other for a car ride later that week. If my client has dogs similar to mine, who need to be separated, I would be sure to treat them equally and split my time with them according to my client's requests. Given single-pet households, I'd spend a lot of my time with them! In my downtime, I'd make sure to sit with them while I work on coursework. I'd be sure to take them on walks and go for potty breaks. And of course I'd make sure we get a lot of play time in and lots of love!

“Autumn was such a huge help while I was working. She made sure Koda went on good walks and spent the time to come meet us before we started walking! She is on time and great with animals”
