“I can't reccomend Taylor enough! She took such good care of my cats and lizard while we were on vacation for a week. We have a very shy and standoffish cat and it was clear to me that Taylor made them all feel so safe and comfortable based on how willing the cats were to let her snap pics of them every day - shes a great photographer too! Great communication, punctual, flexible (thank you again for feeding and keeping an eye on our bearded dragon!), and just all around a wonderful sitter who we will absolutely be booking with again. I would trust her in my home and with my pets any day. Thank you Taylor!”

“Josh has went above and beyond to accommodate my very shy dog. He has went out of his way during his own lunches to make extra drop-in visits to continue to build a relationship with my boy. He has great communication skills and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for a house visit or stay. Thank you!!”

About: Hi! I’m Tiffany. I’ve loved dogs my whole life and grew up caring for them. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog like my own. I’d love the opportunity to help care for your pup! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m not working a traditional 9–5 at the moment, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize walks, visits, and quality time based on each pet’s needs. I enjoy building pet care into my day and making sure every dog gets the attention, care, and consistency they deserve. I prioritize safety, supervision, and routines, provide calm secure environments, respect clients’ homes, and communicate regularly so pets feel comfortable, cared for, and owners feel confident.

About: I have daily experience taking care of animals as I have a dog and two cats of my own. I also have repeat clients that I have gained the trust of and have been working with for several years. In addition to experience in pet sitting, walking, and general husbandry, I worked in an animal shelter and have extensive experience working with animals that have trauma and experience with past homelessness. I recently moved to Columbus for my education. My school year starts in the fall and I am currently not working full time. This allows me a lot of freedom to take care of pets every single day of the week, with my full attention. I believe that a pet's routine and comfort is of the upmost importance when mom/dad is away. It is my goal to make sure your pet is treated like my own and I am completely comfortable with following any quirks or schedules that your pet is used to.

Jacque was on time to all of the check ins and did exactly what we asked her to do to take care of our dog. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in great hands. Thanks again Jacque!!”

This was our third time booking with Taylor - you know you’ve found the best when you come home from vacation and your cats keep looking around, wondering where their third human is! If you book with Taylor, just know you’re guaranteeing true peace of mind and leaving your pets in the care of a wonderful human who will love and care for them like their own. Thank you, Taylor!

Jessica was able to help on short notice when I unexpectedly had to leave town, and I’m so grateful. She was reliable and came every day, communicated kindly, and followed my instructions carefully. I appreciated receiving updates when she arrived and finished, along with photos of my cats eating. Her attention to detail gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, attentive care for their pets.

Sooo thankful for Rachel. She took great care of PK and provided thorough updates. I came home from my trip to the best greeting from him. I know he can be a little sassy so I appreciate her patience and understanding of his playful side and separation anxiety. Would definitely recommend and book her again in the future

Tori was absolutely amazing with our fur babies. We have a mischievous cat who likes to escape outside and she handled it wonderfully. We also have a diabetic cat who likes to hide and Tori was amazing at coaxing him out to give him his medication and insulin.
