“Came back to a super happy Kitty. Home intact and thriving plants. What more can I ask for. Nate was very accommodating and patient with my Joy and I will definitely book him again.”

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats throughout my life. I have 2 dogs myself, a bulldog and Rhodesian ridgeback. I miss my dogs from home and would love to share my love for animals. I have dealt with my breeds and different personalities! I am experienced with puppies to old dogs. I am currently a college student at Miami university. I have quite a bit of free time throughout my days in the mornings, afternoons and nights. I can easily take dogs on walks, care for them in your home, and have a car for taking them wherever they need to go!
“Gabriel was attentive, caring and wonderful with our pets. He was reliable and we will definitely be using him again. We loved seeing the updates. The pets loved him too! Thanks for all your help!”

About: I grew up with a Chow until I was twelve. I've taken care of Husky's, Pits, Poodles and German Shepards. I love caring for dogs, playing with them, making sure they're fed, walked, and generally cared about. I work part-time at a local Co-Op. I am available most of the time in the afternoon or evening. I enjoy pet care as a gig job because it gives me the opportunity to care for animals in my local community, while also getting to help out my neighbors! I don't have a dog, but have cared for many. Some were surprises, some were expected. There's a dog park nearby my house, the neighborhood dogs are friendly, and the owners are responsible with them about interaction.
“Emma is a wonderful and caring pet sitter. She spent quality time with our dogs who both have special care instructions. She is also an amazing pet photographer! Would highly recommend.”

About: I come from an animal loving family, and began volunteering at shelters when I was 13. In 2018, after years of pet sitting for friends and family, I jumped into a full time career working with animals. I have 4 years of kennel technician and doggy daycare experience, and I’ve been a veterinary receptionist since 2022. In that time I have also been a veterinary assistant, training assistant, and grooming assistant when my coworkers needed extra help. I have the knowledge and skills to care for dogs of all sizes, cats (even the spicy ones), and birds, including those with medical conditions requiring extra care. I am currently have the privilege of taking some time out of the traditional career grind, but I’m missing the regular interactions with pets and fellow animal lovers. I have completely open availability for home visits and long term stays in your home. I cannot board in my home, but I would be happy to keep your furbaby (or scaled or feathered baby) comfy in your home while you’re away. In my professional work I’ve upheld the highest standards of safety, comfort, and care for all pets, including those with special needs (medicating, extra walks, mobility assistance, etc).
About: I come from a large family of animal lovers, and for over seven years, I’ve been dedicated to caring for the many animals in my household. Beyond that, I’ve had the opportunity to pet-sit for numerous families, giving me hands-on experience with a wide variety of pets and situations. Over the years, I’ve developed a broad skill set, including puppy training, caring for injured animals, and supporting senior pets. One of my most valuable skills is administering medication to senior animals—whether it’s giving oral medicine to a grumpy, older cat or administering injections with care and precision. There’s very little I haven’t encountered in my years of animal care. From challenging personalities to the joy of nurturing newborn puppies, I’ve learned how to handle it all with patience, compassion, and expertise. I have two pets of my own that I love more than anything, and no matter how many animals I care for during the day, I am always most excited to come home to my babies. I have a big, energetic dog who never seems to tire—he loves walks and playtime, literally all the time! I also have a cat I’ve cherished for over ten years. He’s my baby, and he enjoys the little things: exploring boxes I bring home, playing with his mouse toy, sunbathing outside, and of course, his daily scratches. Every pet is unique, and each one has its own personality and needs. I’ve learned to adapt my care to fit every animal’s individual requirements. While my week revolves around my own pets’ routines and preferences, I am skilled at adjusting to any environment and providing personalized, loving care for every animal I work with. All animals are unique, and every pet owner has their own way of caring for them. I pride myself on catering to each pet’s individual needs while respecting the preferences of their owners. Some of my favorite ways to care for pets include providing enrichment and mental stimulation. For example, I love giving my cat and dog toys and treat games that keep their minds active instead of just lounging all day. For my dog, I often freeze peanut butter into toys—licking helps burn energy and keeps her occupied while I’m away. Both my cat and dog enjoy spending time outside, so I make sure they get plenty of fun in the sun. My cat, in particular, loves exploring boxes and discovering new spots for catnaps, so I enjoy creating new spaces for him to explore and relax. Socialization is also important, which is why I arrange doggy playdates whenever possible. My dog loves visiting her cousins and friends or simply enjoying the sights and smells of the dog park if no other pups are around. Overall, I focus on keeping pets happy, healthy, and engaged, tailoring my care to their personalities and routines while always prioritizing their well-being.
About: I’ve taken care of my family dog since she was adopted at 5 years old and until her last day as a 14 year old. She was a black lab husky mix and 60 pounds. Izzy received lots of enrichment time and multiple short adventures a day as she got older. I currently work full time and am fostering a cat who needs daily medication, so I’ve got lots of availability for your weekend pet adventures! If you live in Hamilton or Oxford and need care during the week - just ask! I know that all animals have their own personalities and require personalized support based on their interests and boundaries. I intentionally observe pets to see the level of affection they are looking for and of course if they have any favorite ways to play!

“Thank you Kathleen. Appreciate you taking care of our babies and for the great update of your visit and pictures. They were very happy when we came home and they look forward to your next visit! Thank You!!”

I've watched pets for friends/ family before and I really enjoy spending time around animals-- I'll sit at the dog park for hours with my little guy because it's brings me joy to be around happy loving animals and makes you feel good inside. I've got an open schedule for walks and drop-in care. I'm not available after 3pm, I like to bring my dog along, no aggressive breeds please I feed my dog first thing in the morning then get him outside for potty break and fresh air. I never leave him alone outside to ensure he's safe
“My shy girl still loves Whitley! I’m looking forward to being completely comfortable with the care my furbabies will get-cat meds and all-during my next trip because of Whitley.”

Ava was great!! Very professional and easy to work/communicate with. My biggest worry is always my cat Belle getting outside because she hangs out by the door, and Ava was extremely vigilant when opening and closing doors, so that gave me peace of mind and calmed my worries. She sent adorable pictures with the Rover cards. Would absolutely book again :)
