About: I started with cat sitting in high school, being requested by coworkers to watch their cats and dogs since then. I’ve had both cats and dogs growing up, loving both. Friends and family have also requested sitting services from me. I currently work full time (32 hours weekly, 8 hours daily). I am available to care for your pet morning and evening during the week, and throughout the day Friday to Sunday. I have always had cats and dogs in my childhood home growing up. I now care for an adult cat in my own home who has special dietary needs. I feed her twice daily and ensure she has a clean home and litter box.
About: I'm looking forward to hearing from you. I hope I can be of service to you when you need someone to watch your pet(s). You can let me know what their day to day routine is so that I can give them the care that they need. I don't have any pets of my own at this time but over the past twenty five years that I've lived here I've had both dogs and cats and even chickens. Even though I live out here in the country I'm usually within a thirty-minute drive or less from the Cincinnati area. We can discuss more in detail when we talk or text or do our meet and greet. Thanks. Make sure your pet(s) are up to date on their flea and tick treatments. I do work during the week but I am available to care for your pet(s) all day Wenesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I enjoy taking daily walks outside and getting exercise with the dogs. We play ball and play with whatever toys you bring over while we are inside. I make sure they are safe and well cared for the entire stay. I am home all day on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. We will have plenty of time to get outdoors for walks and potty breaks. I keep the dogs on leashes while we take our walks but I also have a tie cable I can put them on so we can stay out for awhile.

About: I have dog sitter different sizes, breeds, and “personalities” of dogs, from yorki to Great Dane. I personally have a German and husky mix. I love spending times with animals and have fun with them!!!! I have a full time job from Monday to Thursday, and get off after 6 PM, I have few hours if needed to walk the animals and/or stop by to check on the animals. I am mostly free on weekends, anytime is available just have to let me know few days before or if it’s last minute, I can try to make time to swing by, but I can’t really promise anything on last minute As of right now, I cannot board any animals, but I can dog sit at clients’ home. Depending on how the owners take care of their dogs, I will try my best to give my best effort to take care the animals the same way the owners take care of their animals. I believe communication is very important, so I love to take pictures and videos to share with the owner to keep the owner updated on anything that is going on.
“Corinna was fantastic! She was so attentive to the dogs and just sat and played with them the entire time she was there. She communicated well and took pictures so I could see what they were up too. I would definitely recommend her.”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I always have friends and family trusting me to walk, feed and watch their dogs. My grandma trusted me with bathing her dogs, I had a neighbor who’s dog i walked everyday, and i have dog-sat with my friend for about 2-3 years now. I am currently self-employed, so i can make room in my schedule, any day, any time, but if there is any conflict within my schedule , i will be sure to keep you updated If the owner has any specific request regarding the care of their dog(s), I will be sure to tend to those requests and I will ask questions to make sure I can care for their dog(s) the best I can.
About: I'm 55 years old. My family had dogs and cats while growing up. I was always a part of their everyday care. I took Horsemanship in vocational school in 11th and 12th grades. When I turned 18 and moved out of the house, I got my first dog. I continued to "acquire" different animals (mostly all were rescues). I lived on a friend's 160 acre horse farm for 6 years where I was the primary daily care provider for dogs, cats and 12 horses. Eventually, I bought a 5-acre mini farm where I had dogs, cats, horses, chickens, potbellied pigs, lizards, rabbits, rats, mice and a deer. I currently pet sit for several fur babies. I have done other pet and farm sitting for multiple friends over the years. At this time, I’m only sitting for current pet parents. However, if you have an urgent situation, feel free to contact me to ask if I can work you in. Thank you! I offer pet sitting in my home. I would suggest sending your pet's favorite toys and/or anything else that gives them comfort and a sense of "home". They have the run of the house. I don't have a fenced in backyard, so we will go for walks in the yard, around the neighborhood and at local parks to go potty and get some exercise. They are welcome to sleep in my bed or any where they choose/feel comfortable.

I love my alone time! I have no problem spending all day watching over your home and pets if needed! As long as you’re away I can even stay overnight to ensure your pet(s) are okay! (We would have to build trust first.)

Jessica Z.
“I couldn’t recommend Jessica more highly as a dog sitter! From the moment they met my pup, I could tell they truly understood animals. What makes Jessica so special is not just their reliability or attentiveness—though they excel at both—but the genuine love and care they show for every dog they look after. My dog came back happy, well-exercised, and clearly adored. It’s such a relief knowing your furry friend is in the hands of someone who treats them like their own. I wouldn’t trust anyone else!”
