About: Hi there! I loved animals my whole life and was a zookeeper/animal behaviorist for 14 years. I was also a Dog Trainer, Raptor Rehabilitator, Vet Tech, and Front Office Manager at an emergency and specialty vet office. I love animals of all ages and species. I have a lot of experience giving medications and I've worked with dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, fish, small mammals, horses, farm animals, insects, and many more. I'm now a homeschool mom who loves taking care of and loving on, my own 5 pets as well as other people's pets too. I'm a homeschool mom so my son and I make our own schedule. This allows me to be flexible with caring for other people's pets. I have a lot of experience with animals of all sizes and species. Old and new, well and sickly. I also treat your home as if it were my own. Safety and the health of your fur babies are of the utmost importance to me.
About: My name is Alex and I couldn't be more excited to work with you and your pets! I have an extensive background pet sitting and my love for animals has always been the most exciting part about the job. I work with a variety of animals, including horses. Since I could remember, I've watched pets for friends and family whenever they went out of town or needed extra help. My love for this job began back then and has continued to be an ongoing part of my life. I love helping animals and strongly believe that they deserve nothing but quality care. I'd love to help you and your family with your pets through drop-in visits and walking services, so you never have to worry about them when you're away from home! I'm a new college graduate, and have a lot more free time to focus on my pet care business. Most of my afternoons are open! For drop-in visits, I arrive and stay for the duration of the visit and do the duties that the clients need, whether if that's letting the pets outside, feeding them, and/or hanging out and playing with them, etc.
“While I recover from surgery, Chloe has been taking Riley for her daily walks. It is very comforting to know that my fur baby likes Chloe and is in good hands. Definitely recommend her for any pet needs. Thank you Chloe! Debbie”

“I couldn’t be happier with the dog walking service! My dog was happy, relaxed, and well-exercised. What really made my day were the adorable pictures that were sent during the walk — it was so reassuring to see my pup having such a great time! Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again.”

“Tiffany has walked my puppy a few times now and she was very accommodating with my schedule limitations. I also appreciate that she does training as well and so I know that there will be some consistency with his training on the walks. We will continue to use her in the future!”

“Silver is a fantastic caring dependable dog walker. She has been on time, flexible, and personable. Ghost loves her, really enjoys his walks and time with her. Silver also is caring, knows how the dog is doing and what he needs today. Amazing. We will continue to have Ghost spend time with Silver.”

About: I've taken care of different animals my entire life. Grew up with them in our family home. Our family has a soft spot for rescues. The newest member of our family was a ferral kitten who needed bottle feeding, because his mommy died before he was even eating solids. We have always talked to our animals like they were people. Each animal has a personality, and it doesn't take long to get to know them. I currently work flexible hours as a door dash delivery person. I have great availability most weeks. So the likely-hood of being available is pretty good. I am very attentive to my pets, spend a lot of time with them, and make sure they feel loved. Also very attentive to changes in character and food needs. This is something I bring to any petsitting experience, because I care about every animal's wellbeing.
“Dillon has been awesome! He communicates well and is understanding. If he can accommodate last-minute changes, he will. Draco is smiling in almost every picture that is submitted on his Rover card; it brings me a tremendous peace of mind when I have to work long days to know that Dillon is there giving my boy rubs, loves and treats!”

About: I'm great with pets that require patience to build trust, and always aim to make animals as comfortable with me as possible. I've worked for several years in wildlife rehab and as such am also experienced with animals' medical needs. I'm always pet-sitting for friends and family and love it so much! I'm currently job-hunting and looking for part-time work, as my current career as a biologist involves seasonal work in the spring/summer rather than year-round. I have very flexible availability. I can put in the time necessary for your pet to trust me, and understand that every animal is different and will need different things to feel safe and comfortable. Whatever your pet wants, I can do!

Tuesdays and Thursdays I have classes from 10:30am-12:20pm and 1:30pm-3:20pm. (Typically I stay on campus in between, but depending on your distance from Ashland and the length of time between classes, I could come back to check in on your babies!) I am a Digital Cinema Major, going into directing! Occasionally I also have rehearsals, but I can coordinate those around your pets needs! Pet care is my one and only job, so I take it very seriously! This isn’t a side gig for me, it’s something I take a lot of pride in, and that I love doing! I am comfortable house-sitting overnight or checking in a couple of times a day depending on your pet's needs. (Playtime, feeding, walks, extra attention, etc.) I heavily value the trust it takes to allow me to stay in your home and care for your fur babies. Respecting your home while providing your pets with the best care are my top priorities! Also, I have pets of my own but my family cares for them while I am away.
About: "I’ve had pets since I was young, and over the years, I’ve gained a lot of experience caring for them. My love for animals drives my passion for looking after them, and I’m committed to providing the best care possible." I am free most of the time I have only one part time job just looking for another on to fill my time and got extra income. "I ensure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for in both my home and clients' homes. I create secure, pet-friendly environments and follow all care instructions."
About: Growing up, I was the designated dog, cat and plant sitter in my neighborhood. It never really felt like a job because I enjoyed it so much. To this day, I am always asked to watch over my friends pets when they leave out of town and it still.. does not feel like a job. I have a pretty flexible work schedule since I am freelance so once I am committed to you, I am committed I can promise you that. I tend to just follow the directions and notes the owners give me. I don't want to mess up anyones routine and I want pets to feel as comfortable as possible. I work freelance which is perfect in this situation as I will only accept jobs the days I am free and available! For both situations. Unfortunately I won't be caring for pets in my home as I live in an apartment and it wouldn't be much fun for them. Wish I could!
