About: Hi!🫶🏼 I Would love to help care for your animals in any capacity. I have extensive experience with animals and have worked at a dog boarding kennel in the past in addition to growing up with pets. I have worked with aggressive dogs and am comfortable reading a dog’s cues to prevent escalation. I currently have a Bernese mountain dog who is always down for a play date and a cat who tolerates her antics haha. Bonus- I’m an ER nurse, far from a vet tech, but good for med admin if needed! With that, I do work 3 shifts a week(12 hours) that vary. So while my schedule can be sporadic, it can also be very open! I work full time 3 days a week and use rover sitters myself for those days. My schedule varies, but I am great for last minute needs as long as I’m not working! I try to stick to your pet’s routine and rules! I am also very good at recognizing body language/behaviors and therefore can prevent “incidents” from occurring like aggression on walks. I’m also happy to bring along my Berner for a play date if you’d like!

“Patricia is absolutely wonderful! Always on time. Very patient. Great communicator—even sends photos of our guys with updates about the visits. They just love her! The peace of mind she provides is immeasurable.”

“Taylor has been amazing with my new pup. She’s so kind and you can tell she really cares about the dogs. Very good communicator and super reliable 😊”

“Tory was great with Harper. Being such a young puppy walks were difficult at first but she gave Harper all the attention needed and was patient as she worked on her walking skills. Will definitely use again in the future!”

About: I’ve been passionate about animals my entire life, and raising my own dog from puppyhood has only deepened my love for dogs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your best friend, so I’ll care for your pup with patience, attention, and plenty of affection while keeping you updated every step of the way. My goal is to make sure both you and your dog feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I work full time from home and may be able to step away during the day. I’m available evenings on weekdays and any time on weekends. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay in their familiar space and routine. Since I work remotely, I can often stop in throughout the day to check on them, refill food/water, and give some playtime or a walk. I will treat each pet to how I would want someone to care for mine, spending quality time and not just a quick in-and-out visit. I follow your instructions closely and send all the photos you want so you can ensure they are in good hands and how your pet’s doing.

About: I’m currently a graduate student at The Ohio State University, and alongside my academic work, caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’ve owned and cared for a variety of dogs of many different breeds and sizes. Growing up and into adulthood, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, and playtime. I understand how important it is to maintain your dog’s routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. As both a responsible graduate student and a lifelong dog owner, I bring reliability, organization, and genuine care to every visit. My goal is too make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for, and to give you peace of mind while you’re away! As a graduate student at The Ohio State University, I’m only in class for a portion of the day Monday through Thursday, which gives me consistent flexibility throughout the week. Outside of class, my schedule is structured but open, allowing me to plan pet care visits, walks, and check-ins reliably. Because my academic commitments are predictable, I’m able to maintain a steady routine and dedicate focused time to each dog I care for. Whether it’s midday walks, morning or evening visits, I have availability throughout the week and can provide dependable, attentive care. When caring for pets in other homes, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and consistent as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any specific preferences your pet may have. My goal is to make them feel safe and comfortable in their own environment.

About: Hi! I'm a certified elementary teacher with 10+ years of experience caring for children. During summer break I am excited to bring the same care and attention I bring to my classroom to your pet! As a lifelong animal lover and cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I treat every pet like they're part of my own family and will keep you updated along the way. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! I am currently a teacher on summer break so I have a good amount of flexibility for your pets needs. If you need daily check ins, walks, feedings, or just are looking for someone to give your pet some extra attention and love, I am free to do so! I am very open to learning about your pets comfortable environment and providing them care in the comfort of their own home. I currently am not sitting pets in my home but am happy to come to yours!

“Our pup was not in peak form today, leaving a mess and refusing to walk. Tracy was so kind, keeping us in the loop, and going above and beyond to clean up a mess in the home. Will definitely book again!”

About: I’ll make sure they get an opportunity to enjoy themselves when you’re not available, and I’ll make sure their needs are met. You book me, you can trust your pet is taken care of. Flexible schedule. Available weekends upon special request. M-F, 9am to 10am, 12pm to 1pm, 4pm to 5pm are only times available as of right now I have a fenced yard, and two crates available. I prefer to understand the animal and client’s normal routine and proactively plan a meet and greet so the animal becomes familiar with me before further interactions.

“Vanessa has been our dog walker for almost a year. She is professional, communicate & make sure your energetic pup gets the exercise he needs! I very highly recommend Vanessa for any of your pets needs!”

“Awesome!!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family fostered and cared for cats, which sparked my lifelong passion for animal care and behavior. Professionally, I’ve worked in a dog daycare, pet store, and boarding environment, and have spent the past two years working at an animal shelter. Through these roles, I’ve gained hands on experience caring for cats, dogs, reptiles, and small mammals. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and have experience working with canines who have behavioral challenges such as stranger danger, reactivity, and resource guarding. I am trained in reading canine body language and adjusting my approach to help pets feel safe and comfortable. Cats are also a particular passion of mine. In addition to caring for social cats, I have experience socializing feral and semi-feral cats and working with shy or nervous kitties who need extra patience and understanding. I am also comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and caring for multi-pet households. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work at an animal shelter Wednesday through Saturday. Because of this, I am primarily available Sundays through Tuesdays for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting services. I may have drop in availability the other days after 7 pm. I do my best to keep my availability up to date and will always communicate clearly about scheduling so you know exactly what to expect. My goal is to keep your pets as comfortable as possible by maintaining their normal routine while you’re away. I understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, so I tailor my care to each individual animal. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, enrichment activities, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and respectful presence nearby, I am happy to meet them where they are. I prioritize safety, patience, and positive interactions, especially with nervous or shy pets. Communication is extremely important to me. During visits, I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Camryn has been amazing for this first 3 weeks. She scheduled a consultation on short notice, and has been great with timing, communication, and most importantly, care of our dog. We’ll be hiring her for a long time!”

About: I’m comfortable and experienced caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve helped friends and family with their pets, from daily walks and drop-in visits to overnight stays. I’ve had my own cats for over 9 years - up to 4 at a time - and even helped raise a litter from birth. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every home and pet with care and respect. You’ll get photo and text updates throughout each visit, so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. I’m patient and attentive, and I treat every animal like my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a lot of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. Aside from Mondays and Wednesdays from 8am to 12:30pm, my schedule is wide open. When I’m in your home, I will treat it with the same care and respect as my own, keeping doors and gates secure and following your pet’s normal routine. During walks, I will be focused and careful to keep your dog secure and safe. I will follow any instructions you provide and send photo and text updates along the way.

About: I’m a stay at home dog mom myself looking to make some extra money doing something I love! I grew up with golden retrievers and when I moved out at 18, got my first dog Cozy. He is a husky German Shepherd. I have years of experience walking dogs for family friends and know how to properly care for dogs like their family. I am a part time student at Ohio state. My only other obligations are being a wife and taking care of my 16 year step daughter which is flexible! I would care for your pet like their my own, i’m very attentive and I’m open to lots of detailed instruction I would take lots of pictures and just making sure that your best friend is as comfortable as possible.

“Michelle was excellent! She walked my two dogs twice in one day and even helped me deal with an unexpected visit from a service technician while she was at my home. She was very responsive and kept me updated on the pups. I highly recommend Michelle and will be booking again!”
