“Caitlyn is wonderful! I love my kitties above all else, and worry to death over leaving them. I had to leave them for a week-long work trip for the first time in a new community. She came over beforehand and I could tell she was very organized and caring. She asked a lot of good questions that showed she has experience, things I would not have thought of. She came every day and sent me an update and lots of pictures. I always knew what was going on each day, even that my basement had flooded a little from the rain we got! It meant so much to me to know they were cared for and safe. She also kept everything very clean and had clearly swept around their litter boxes etc. I definitely highly recommend Caitlyn.”

About: I’ve always had dogs my whole life and am able to build a special connection with them! I can’t wait to build connections with more dogs, cats, and other pets! I am currently a college student home for the summer with lots of free time to care for pets!! I am only working a remote internship so my schedule is very flexible! Pets are just as important as people and are family! I make sure to treat my pets and others with care and respect, while also making sure they’re having fun and behaving well! Being the owner of a high energy dog myself, I am well aware of safety considerations as well!
About: I’ve been around and have taken care of my own dogs since I was 10, any age, any size. For as long as I can remember I’ve never not had a dog of my own. They were not lying when they said dogs are a man’s best friend. I treat my fur baby like he is my literal baby because in a sense he is. And I treat any other dog just the same! :) I work full time m-f 9-5. I let my own fur baby out of the cage and he is monitored on a camera and watches tv while I am away. I can easily leave your fur baby out or they can be crated. I come home on lunch break to take Gravel out. I can only do boarding during the week but I have open full availability on the weekends. My own fur baby eats 2 times a day one morning one night. Gets treats often 🤭 and gets all the cuddles. I will treat your dog with the very same love and care as I do mine. Gravel is very loving and has been begging me for a play mate. Can’t wait to see where this goes.
About: I love all animals. I would love to be able to care for your doggies, cats or any of your other pets when you can’t be there. I work full time but am available to drop in on or walk your pets in the afternoons after 3:30, in the evenings and on weekends I will make sure your pets are well fed and watered and whatever else they might need. And they will receive many snuggles and love!
“Melissa did a wonderful job with our cat while we were away on vacation last week! Our cat is usually very shy around new people, however she bonded very quickly with Melissa! I looked forward to the daily pics she would send me & the updates! It was really nice having the peace of mind that she was well looked after while we were away. Melissa was very reliable each day & went above & beyond!”

“Sara is the best pet sitter ever! she responded immediately to my email, she was very professional and prompt, and took the excellent care of ALL my animals! Everything I asked her to do, she did it! She sent me daily updates and pictures, which was very reassuring as I was traveling internationally for 2 weeks. I would give her a 10-star if I could and will definitely use her services again! Thanks SO much Sara!”

About: I’ve been taking care of my 15 year old dog since she was 8 weeks old! She now needs a lot more potty breaks than before, requires medication occasionally and waits for me to give her massages after waking up because her arthritis is worse in the morning! As you can see she needs extra catering to since she has gotten older. She is spoiled and cuddly and I love every second of it! I’m a social worker who does “home visits” for children during the day. My job is community based therefore it gives me more flexibility with my daily schedule. I think mental health is important therefore I believe in daily walks for myself! I will walk as long and as far as your dog will allow me to go! I have a wooded walking trail in my neighborhood that allows for exploring opportunities for your furry family members. 😊
About: Hi there! I’m currently working full time as a mother-infant registered nurse. I love caring for humans and animals. Growing up, I helped care for my family’s pets including dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, and guniea pigs. In college I spent some of my free time volunteering at the local dog shelter. After graduating college, I adopted my dog, Essie, here in Columbus. She is my soul dog! Essie’s had numerous health issues, including a seizure disorder. She’s also very dog reactive and shy with new people. Because of this, I will only watch your pet in your home, but I am open to caring for animals that have special medical or behavioral conditions. I look forward to meeting you, your pets, and providing the highest quality care for them! I work 12 hour night shifts 3 days a week as a nurse, so I’m typically available any day of the week during the day. I typically have my work schedule a month in advance for a 6 week period. I want to keep your pets safe, happy, and healthy. I’m happy to follow your routine with your pets including play time outside, many potty breaks, going for walks in your neighborhood, etc.
About: My whole life there was an animal in my household. So ever since I was 5 years old I would help out. It started off as just feeding the dogs but as I got older I gained more and more experience. Taking the dogs on a walk, letting them outside, simple grooming, administering medicine, etc. Dogs and animals alike have a special place in my heart. They truly are man’s best friend. Even if it isn’t my personal animal it is my goal to give your furry friend the same care and affection that they deserve. I’m currently a college student in my sophomore year. I miss my dogs now that I’m not home, so I truly do give other people dogs as if they are my own. My schedule is mostly open in the evenings and I’m more than willing to work things out, even outside of hours that are listed in my profile. I would want to get to know you and your dog before I come into both of your guys domain. I would follow directions however you desire and most importantly treat them as my own fur baby.
About: I am a trained veterinarian assistance (over 10 years experience) with a background in positive reinforcement training and grooming. I've also done a lot of work with special needs dogs (deaf, blind, amputees, behavioral issues, megaesophagous, Degenerative Myelopathy, diabetes, ect.) as well as being a certified therapy dog handler and trainer with Black Paw Canine. I worked for 10 years as a full time veterinary assistant at non-profit, full service vet clinics in Columbus and at various dog boarding and training facilities. I work part time as a Firefighter/Paramedic, so I am looking to fill my spare time doing something else I love! I wish to tailor the experience for each pet I meet. I can play, run, cuddle, groom, administer meds, train, you name it! It all depends on what your pet enjoys and what will be most beneficial to them! Thank you for trusting me with your furry family members! You can rest easy that with my years of experience and my time in veterinary and human medicine that your furry family member will receive the best care! I typically work one-two 24hr shifts with my fire department and then am completely free on my other days off. This gives me plenty of flexibility to help work around other schedules! Each pet gets a specialized care plan based on their needs. This will be discussed in length as to which things you'd like me to work on with your pup or what things we can reinforce when I care for your pet.
About: I've owned & been around cats & dogs all of my life. I am very patient & loving. I have done house-sitting for pet care numerous times for family & friends over the years, before having the technology to make it easier to keep track. I adore all animals. Each one has something unique about them. I can't wait to meet yours and get to know them! Thank you for allowing me the opportunity! I work a small set schedule. I am available almost all day, every day. I work from my car a lot also, so I'm quite mobile. Animals RULE my house. I currently have 3 black cats. They are beyond spoiled every minute of every day! I am totally obsessed & in love!!!
About: If you’re looking for someone dependable, experienced and trustworthy to care for your fur baby, look no further! I have experience with all types of different breeds and temperaments. Growing up I had a Dalmatian, Chihuahua and a Pit bull mix. I unfortunately just lost my 12 year old Puggle and currently have a Beagle/Blue Tick hound mix. I can assure you when your dog is in my care, I will treat and care for them as if they are my own. I am currently a stay at home mom of twin boys! My husband works from home so I would love to be able to work your fur baby into my open schedule! I know how hard it can be to have to leave your pet for any amount of time and I will give your pet an ample amount of attention! I love to go on walks, play with their favorite toys, I can easily crate your pet if needed and I am able to give medicine if your pets requires me to do so.
About: Our senior rescues passed on last year; I want to care for others animals as I did for them. If you are going on vacation, out of town, or having a long day at work, I can check in with them. My work is sporadic, but I am taking time off and re-connecting with furry friends. I can spend several hours a day with your pets as needed My house does have a fenced back yard. We love very close to the bike path which is ideal for walks. If they have specific diet concerns that is good to know as well.
About: I will always make sure I give your baby the love and attention they deserve! I’ll be sure to give them all the scratches and kisses they want and tell them what a good boy/girl they are. I have my 2 kids, Honey and Callie. My husband and I rescued Callie-11, a lab/boxer mix. We also have Honey-2, pit bull. She joined our family at 8 weeks old. Honey and I went through therapy dog classes as well. She is AKC registered and a Certified Canine Good Citizen. I am currently enjoying being a stay at home dog mom so I have plenty of time to either pop-in to let your fur babies out or take them on a walk around the neighborhood. I am available to either stop in to let your fur baby out for a potty break or I can take them for a walk or a bye bye.
