About: With over 8 years of hands-on experience in veterinary medicine, I bring a deep understanding of animal health, behavior, and emergency care to every pet I look after. My background includes working alongside veterinarians in clinical settings, assisting with diagnostics, surgical procedures, and administering medications. Whether it’s managing pets with chronic conditions, administering medications, or simply offering a calming presence, my veterinary experience ensures your pet is in capable, compassionate hands. I prioritize safety, well-being, and individualized care for every animal, treating each one as if they were my own. I am currently working full time at a veterinary clinic. While I am not available during the day, I will be available after 6:00 pm and in the mornings before I leave for work. I am also available almost all day during the weekends to be around for your pets. When caring for both my own pets and a client’s pet, I treat each animal with the same level of love and attention. I make sure they are fed on time and have access to fresh water throughout the day. I take dogs for regular walks to keep them active and happy, and for cats or other pets, I ensure litter boxes are kept clean and fresh. I love interacting with animals—whether it’s playing, cuddling, or just keeping them company. I want them to be comfortable and feel cared for! I also give treats (with permission) as a way to reward good behavior and build trust. Every pet in my care is treated like family.


About: Hello! My name is Amber. I’m currently available to pet sit in Lima and surrounding areas! Dogs are one of my great loves in life. I previously worked at a no-kill shelter in Columbus, Ohio where I worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am comfortable with many temperaments—I haven’t yet met an anxious dog who didn’t warm up to me quickly—but if your dog has any aggression issues, I am not comfortable accepting the request. If needed, I can administer oral medication; I do not have experience with needles. I am a non-smoker, non-drinker, who adapts quickly to new surroundings. I am generally pretty quiet, and I always respect my surroundings. Just like I treat your pets like my own, the same goes for your home. I always make sure it is clean and well kept. By trusting me with the care of your home and your pets, you are giving me the opportunity to do what I love, so there is no question that I will go above and beyond what is expected of me. If you are interested in discussing an agreement further or wish to see additional references, please contact me. I am happy to answer any questions you may have! I am insured by Pet Sitters Associates. I currently have a flexible work schedule, so I am able to do drop-ins, walks, and overnight sits. I try to accommodate schedule requests as best I can! I follow any verbal or written instructions I have been provided. I often send updates to pet owners. I’m a big fan of sending selfies with pets!

About: I've personally had three dogs in my home while growing up. I have had bunnies, hamsters, fish, and frogs as well. I currently have four cats in my care and have taken care of other people's dogs. I am currently in school, gaining my certifications for pet boarding. I am looking to take care of animals in the morning and occasional weekends. I am open to caring for your animals in their home, I am not able to house animals at my own house or stay overnight at the moment.

“Scarlett is awesome! She took great care of our two dogs while we were out of town, communicated constantly about how they were doing and even sent pictures! She is just great!”

About: Hey Pet Parents! My name is Juliana and I hold a lot of significant experience in caring for pets! First off, I am a full time student at Ohio Northern University where I currently am apart of the Polar Paws program as a Secondary Trainer. This program allows college students to care for and train future service dogs. As a secondary trainer, I would work with various dogs on campus by training and sitting them while their primary caretaker is busy. Prior to university, I volunteered at the Van Wert County Humane Society where I worked with cats and dogs of all ages and all breeds. This consisted of walking the dogs, cleaning cages, cleaning litter boxes, playing with the animals, etc. Currently I am available anytime during the day and anytime of the week, until I update my availability when I need to go back to campus. I care for pets as if they are children. They need attention, respect, and when being babysat, a good time! That being said, in my own home they have access to their own food, water, play area, and have set potty breaks. In a clients home, the same will apply. Any alternative toys, medications, and food can be used most definitely if requested by client. Always a clean and tidy environment before and after.

About: I have loved and cared for animals from a very young age. I love to walk, cuddle and give smooches to your pet. Thank you I work a part time job a few days per week. I do not work weekends. Days can be scheduled off if needed. Thank you I will care for your pet as you would in your home. We do allow pets on our furniture and in our bed. Thank you

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.

About: I have a lot of experience working with animals, as I have grown up with animals of all kinds growing up. This includes many cats and dogs, some farm animals, and several exotic pets like raccoons, skunks, and flying squirrels. There have been many times my family and I have had the opportunity to rescue and rehab an animal for it to regain its health. I would be willing to help any days I am available during the week. I also stay up late, so I would be very helpful to people who work 2nd - 3rd shift schedules, or for people who go out during the evenings. I am not available until 1pm currently, and I may be willing to take requests until 2am. Wherever I am caring for animals, their safety and health is a priority. A clean space is necessary to avoid sickness, choking, and other hazards.
