I want to assure you that I will always respect your privacy, ensuring that your cherished space remains a sanctuary for your beloved pets and a place of trust and security.

“Our first time hiring Haleigh as our regular sitter was out of town. Hadleigh took good care of 6 of our cats, posted daily updates of her visits, brought in the mail & vacuumed!! Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve grown up in a house with 4 dogs since I was born. Taking care of my own since I was 13. I absolutely adore dogs of all kinds. I have experience taking care of all breeds, small to large. I used to be a mail carrier so I have lots of experience walking all day. The dogs were the favorite part of my day, I think I knew more of the dogs names on my route than I did actual people! I currently am working Monday-Friday 9-5 so I would be available in the evenings during the week. I am available any time on the weekends I have a completely fenced in acre and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby friendly. I do not crate my dog but am able to crate your dogs if you supply a crate. My dogs have free reign of my house and are treated like my child and so would your fur baby!
“Karen was great with Hammy! He loved her and so did we. I highly recommend her! She put us at ease and we trusted her completely!”
About: Im a pre-vet student who has worked in hospital, shelter, and rehabilitation settings, so I know how important our 4-legged family members are. Even when we have to leave them at home we want to make sure they stay happy and comfortable and that's why I do what I do! Im currently working at a veterinary hospital, so evenings are always great, and I often have 3 or 4 days off a week where I can spend even more time with your friends! You know best when it comes to your animals and your house. Whatever you are able to tell me about their behavior, rules, or routines will be taken into account and I will make sure everyone stays happy and healthy!
About: I've been a dog owner and lover for 30 years. Growing up my parents raised and breed AKC Golden Retrievers and I helped and learned so much then. Dog's love me and I love them back! I am pet and house sitting full time.I currently live in Oberlin Ohio. I enjoy outdoor walks pretty often and miss going to the dog park. With love and attention. Body language is very good way of knowing how a pet is feeling. Rewarding good behavior is the easiest part of the job.
About: Hi! I'm Luna, a college student from Ithaca, NY. I've been a pet sitter around my neighborhood this past couple of months, but I am looking to offer my services in the town where I attend school. I have experience with reactive dogs- I've taken care of my rescue dog for four years now. He's a large reactive dog who needs a lot of special attention, especially when around people and on walks. Your pup will be in good hands! I'm a student at Oberlin College, so I am available in the mornings for care before 9am, and after 4:30pm. I can also drop in during my free time in between classes if needed. I am able to stay overnight as well. I am happy to take your pup on walks around the neighborhood, in the Arboretum, or local trails. I have experience taking my dog on walks from 45 minutes- 1 hour, but if your dog doesn't need that, I love taking a shorter route! I don't have a car, so sticking locally will work best for me. If you have a yard, I will happily play with your dog outside, and visit inside however necessary.

If I need a sitter again she will be my first choice! Highly recommend!!”
