“I recently moved to Ohio and needed to find a new pet sitter. This process has always been so stressful, needing a person my pets liked and I trusted. I lucked out when I found Cheryl! She is a true animal lover who is professional, trustworthy and genuinely kind. I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve cared for many types of animals of different shapes and sizes in various animal shelter, grooming, and veterinary settings. From pets, to livestock, and exotic reptiles. I’m currently a veterinary technician student as well. Your Companion deserves Time, Love, and Care and my purpose in life is to provide them that. I’m very passionate about this line of work. As a current full time Remote Veterinary student, I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available 5 days week in the mornings and afternoons. When I care for your pet in your home my routine is to treat them like family and your home like a sacred space. I am more than willing to respect all boundaries put in place in order to do my job properly. I am a helicopter pet parent so your little guy or gal is safe with me.
“I liked Chloe the minute I met her. She came over for a pre visit to meet my cats and learn about their routine. Ava and Tucker warmed up to her right away and I knew they would be in good hands. Chloe arrived on schedule for four mornings and five evenings to feed, play with and attend the litter box. When I arrived home from my trip, the house was in order, and everything looked as I left it. I’ll definitely request Chloe again. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”

About: I have always had some kind of animal in my home and truly because they are so amazing. I have watched many different animals for different people for many years. I have done drop ins just to let dogs out, walked them, and just truly loved on them. I respect and give the best care to all of the animals I care for. I make sure to always keep the families updated because I know how hard it can be, but I promise your fur babies will be so loved! I am currently in school fully online for my bachelors in prekindergarten. I also am working at a school as an aide and completely love it. I’m really looking to fill my summer but also have some jobs during the fall! I will show the attention to your pet the second I walk in the door and always make sure I know what service I need to provide for the animal. My goal is to always make sure the animals are safe and taken care of. I will make sure to ask all of my questions before I show up so that I am able to give them the best care!
“Ashley was a life saver! We needed help with our two diva greyhounds and she took it on with no complaints. By the puctures she shared they really seemed to like her. I came home to happy healthy pets and I couldnt ask for more! Ashley is great!”
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and started pet sitting when I was 14. I have looked after many different animals including dogs, cats, lizards, and a spider! I have experience with puppies, kittens, senior animals and animals with disabilities as well. I am currently working a part time job so I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets! If I am needed on an hourly basis, let me know two weeks beforehand so I can schedule time off work. I can stay overnight at your house if needed I will not bring your pets over to my home because my own dog is unsure about other animals. I like to stay with the animals for two hours each time I check in on them to keep them company and to play with them. I can also stay overnight and all day if needed.
“Gronk is typically an anxious pup who takes time to warm up to new people, but has quickly become a fan of Oli. Oli has been a great communicator, reliable, and great with Gronk's quirks. We are so thankful for Oli's help with Gronk as we are adapting to having a newborn at home.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cat since I was a child, as well as a lot of experience with pet sitting. I’ve had a lot of experience with big dogs (irish wolfhound, bernese mountain dog, etc) as well as little dogs. I also taken care of cats, both social and standoffish. The pets I have cared for have had very different personalities and I’ve done well adjusting to them. I understand how to respect your pet’s boundaries and adjust my care as needed. I was looking for a flexible summer job, so this is my only commitment. Therefore, I am able to spend as much time as needed with your pets. I understand the importance of sticking to the routine and schedule created for your pets. I will walk them, crate them, and play will them as much as you normally do. I will make sure their environment stays clean (cleaning litter boxes, cleaning food/water bowls, wiping their paws, etc). My goal is to care for your pets just as you do.
“Jeffrey was great with mtg cat who is always shy at first. Felix warmed up to him quickly. My cats food and treat schedule can be complicated but Jeffrey took care of everything and I did not worry at all while on vacation. I would definitely recommend jeffrey.”
About: I have cared for animals of all varieties, worked as a companion animal department manager at Petco and have degrees in wildlife conservation and genetics.

I will ensure that they are receiving the correct nutrition and be aware of any food allergies. I will keep your pets at a safe distance from wildlife and unknown pets. I will follow the instructions given to me by the pet owner.
About: I have loved animals ever since I was born. They are my favorite thing in life. I will treat your animal with the most love I can offer. I’m more of a stay-at-home person, so when I am committed to watching your pet, they will be well taken care of while in my care. I have a fenced in yard and lots of space for a dog to play in! I have 2 cats but they are very antisocial and won’t be a problem. I’m also a quick learner and a natural when it comes to pet care!
About: I grew up around big and small dogs and have had cats, snakes, and turtles. I worked at a vet clinic for a couple months then moved to working at an animal humane society for a year and a half, I am now working at a doggy daycare and have dog/house sat for some family friends. I have experienced in special needs senior pups and I have experienced with rabbits as well. I currently have 3 dogs, 5 cats, a rabbit, and a betta fish and my personal pets. I work Monday-Friday and mainly work 6:30am-1:30pm. I have plenty of time after work to spend time walking and caring for the furry friends, I work no weekends so the furry friends will have some full days of love and attention. Depending on the needs of the pet and the parents instructions I like to do at least 30 minutes of playtime and enrichment, if no fenced yard depending on age and size of day, 30 minutes of walking around the neighborhood and playtime inside of home or enrichment
“Julie is the best! She took fabulous care of my two cats.. one of which has a medical condition, so I am always hesitant to leave her. But, the daily updates and photos reassured me that she was in exceptional care and healthy while we where away. Thank you so much Julie!!! I highly recommend Julie for your pet care.”

“Taylor did a fabulous job with my fur babies! She stopped in for 30 minutes to let them out, spent quality time playing with them, and even tried to hand feed them to make sure they felt loved and cared for while we were away. She took great pictures and videos of her interactions with them, which gave me so much peace of mind. You can truly tell she has a heart for animals and treats them like her own. I highly recommend Taylor to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and attentive to care for their pets!”
“Michelle has been a wonderful care provider for our senior dog Chloe. We needed temporary help with daily visits while Chloe recovered from ACL surgery due to restrictions with her activity. Although she was only responsible for Chloe, our other dog Freddie who is usually very shy with people he does not know quickly grew to love her and looked forward to her visits as well. We couldn’t have picked a better provider, she was dependable, kind and trustworthy and we would highly recommend her and use her services again. Thank you so much Michelle we appreciate all that you’ve done for us ❤️❤️❤️!!!”
“Amber watched our kitties for 5 days through drop in visits. From the start, Amber was very communicative and met us and the kitties before our trip! Every day we got at least two photos with descriptions. Amber even communicated with us through WhatsApp to make sure we received updates. It doesn’t stop there- one of our kitties is having trouble pooping in the litter box. Without trouble/hesitation, Amber assured me it wouldn’t be a problem and she made sure to take care of any messes and showed our kitty love. We are so happy that we were able relax knowing our kitties were in good hands!”
“Brooklyn was AMAZING!! She cared for our dog like her own and even got her to eat when other kennels we've tried just let her go without eating when she was experiencing separation anxiety. She sent photos and kept us updated on everything going on with her! We are so thankful for Brooklyn!”

I just met Scott for the first time today. There was a possibility I would have to go out of town to the hospital in the next day or two. I have one cat sitter but I need additional one. I immediately felt at ease with him. He carried some heavy cat litter down my steps into my basement and did the litter boxes. He's very kind and although my cats really didn't meet him today I feel very comfortable in leaving him his care.
I liked Chloe the minute I met her. She came over for a pre visit to meet my cats and learn about their routine. Ava and Tucker warmed up to her right away and I knew they would be in good hands. Chloe arrived on schedule for four mornings and five evenings to feed, play with and attend the litter box. When I arrived home from my trip, the house was in order, and everything looked as I left it. I’ll definitely request Chloe again. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻
We’ve used Cora three times now for our cats Dash and Daisy, and she is absolutely exceptional. Dash has a serious heart condition requiring three medications twice daily — not a simple task — and Cora handles it with total confidence and care. She spends a genuine 30 minutes each visit, giving them real attention, not just a quick check-in. She even noticed it was trash day and took care of it without being asked, and grabbed our newspaper too. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. We will 100% keep using Cora and recommend her without hesitation!
