“After a last-minute work schedule change, I desperately needed someone to watch our puppy for the day. Thankfully, Arlissa was super fast in her response (even though it was 7 AM) and was able to watch Lyra. Clearly Lyra enjoyed it because she slept the entire ride home! Arlissa also took some beautiful pics which is a miracle considering how Lyra rarely stays still!”

“Aubrey really helped us out with last minute daycare after a death in our family. Our dog Maggie got along well with her two terriers. She updated me with pictures and texts through out the day. Thank you Aubrey!”

“Casey and her brother were fantastic with Wren! She came back tired from playing all day, and ready to cuddle up and sleep! Casey sent me updates with pictures and videos throughout the 9 hours she had her, which made me feel good about leaving my girl with her!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for a variety of animals throughout my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, a parakeet, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, fish, a bearded dragon, and a red tail boa. I LOVE animals. When I was a kid I would even spend my weekends at our local pet shop holding and playing with their animals. I am a mother of two teenagers, and have been a small business owner, so I am extremely responsible, reliable, caring, attentive to detail, and have the skills to do anything necessary to care for your pets. I am available most of the time, and my time is flexible. I recently sold my half of my small business and am now taking some time for myself (that I want to fill with animals!), so I am almost always available and flexible. We have a fenced in yard, but we also live in a beautiful historic neighborhood and love taking walks around the neighborhood and to the park as often as possible.
“Used Katherine when we travelled from NY to Ohio with our coonhound. Needed a sitter while we were busy with a family event. Very friendly dog loving home with good fenced yard. If we come back will use again”

“Amazing. Very quick to respond and works well with any delays. Both the times i needed her she was able to help last minute. Im happy with her care and will happily go back to her again and again.”


“I was very happy with how things went; was in the Dayton area to check out a business possibility and wasn't sure how long I might need daycare for. Carol & Jessica were very flexible, and I was comfortable leaving my pup Maggie with them on a Saturday morning. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life. I breed bullies and take care of dogs daily. I love to care for other beings. I’m a breeder so I’m already taking care of dogs on a daily basis so why not do what you love full time? No brainer! I do have a fenced in backyard and I also have micro bullies and pocket bullies and French bulldog to keep dog busy and happy.
“Highly recommend Daphne. It was the first time leaving our puppy and Daphne and her family were great and so welcoming from the meet and greet to final pick up. Daphne sent pics and videos throughout the day and our puppy was clearly happy and being well cared for. All aspects of our experience 5 stars!!”

About: I have had pets my entire life - and a lot of the pets I’ve had come from shelters or a rescue situation. I am currently a mom to two furbabies - Sunny & Cher. My last dog was a rescued Senior Husky who went through at least 5 different owners before he spent his last few years with me. My husband and I gave him the best years of his life. We was our baby. Now that my children are grown I have a better work / life balance and have a very flexible schedule. I can do late nights & early mornings and everything in between. It will be whatever you prefer! Currently in the process of moving but my new home has a fenced big back yard - I’ll crate as needed but would love to make sure your fur baby has all the fun/attention they deserve. As someone who has relied boarding services, sitters, doggy day cares I understand the stress one may have by leaving your dog/cat in the care of a stranger so I’ll make sure you’re at ease with it.

“Courtney was great! We dropped our dogs off to do some hiking in Bryce canyon and had an amazing day, but we think our dogs might have had more fun than us! Courtney took them for hikes, let them swim in some lakes and all the while sent us pictures of our pups having the time of their lives. Would highly recommend Courtney on this app!”

“Wow! Incredible! I hesitate to leave an awesome review because she was so unlike any other sitter and I want her all for my dog. Hatsuki is on another level. I went to do an introductory meet and greet. Her house was immaculate, very clean and organized. Hatsuki had printed (let me say it again, she printed a sheet!) a profile of clutch so she can make notes about his needs. Again this was just a meet and greet, she also made a thumb drive with a tag that had clutch’s name. This was so she can give me all the pictures she would take including the ones she would send me as updates throughout the day. Thank you Hatsuki you were amazing!”

“Andre is very convenient and accommodating. He was able to take our dog at what was practically last minute and did a fantastic job. He sent updates to us almost on the hour every hour via photos and videos. He was a very pleasant personality and I will definitely be using his services again. He’s also one of a kind in the Beavercreek area.”

About: Throughout my years I have taken care of a variety of animals ranging from lizards, cats, dogs, snakes, skinks, and many more. Throughout this time with these loving animals I have learned so many valuable tools regarding pet care. Some include safe/healthy treats, handling, working with behavioral issues, knowledge regarding toxic household plants, exercise needs, and more.
