“I was so pleased with the services provided by Amber while watching my little one. She interacted with her wonderfully and gave her lots and lots of attention. Amber kept me updated with pictures and messages and I feel truly comfortable with leaving my dog with her, and I look forward to the next opportunity.”

“Michelle was fantastic! Reached out on short notice & she happily watched my pup. She was very responsive the whole day, sending pictures and videos with updates. Tucker had a great time, I will certainly be a returning client! Highly suggest to anyone looking for a sitter!”


“Sox and I LOVE Dawn and Spike. Dawn takes the best care of our boy and we never have to worry, which is such a blessing. Spike is so much fun and Sox always comes home zonked. There really is no one better!”
“Sydney was a huge lifesaver when I needed someone to watch my dog while in town for a few days. She was awesome with my dog Atlas, who’s usually pretty skeptical of new people, and he loved playing with her dog Honey”

“Jessica took fantastic care of my anxious boy. Updates and communication were awesome, and he had a great time with her! If you're looking for doggy care in Columbus I highly recommend her! We're not local, but if we're ever back in town Jessica will be my go-to.”

About: I’m a caring pet sitter with 5+ years’ experience and ASPCA training. I love all animals and specialize in puppy training, senior care, multi-pet homes, and pets with special needs, providing safe, loving care and regular updates. I provide structured and attentive care for every pet, ensuring their health, safety, and happiness. Daily, I handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or walks, playtime, enrichment, grooming touch-ups, and a calm bonding session to make pets feel loved and secure. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. Weekly, I focus on deeper tasks like grooming, cleaning habitats or litter boxes, socialization or training sessions, and tracking any medications or special care needs. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and thriving while maintaining a consistent, reliable routine. When caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment tailored to each animal’s needs. In your home, I follow your routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions, while keeping the space tidy and providing updates with photos. In my home, I create a calm, comfortable environment with separate areas for pets as needed, enrichment activities, supervised play, and gentle attention. I’m experienced with dogs, cats, small animals, multi-pet households, puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs, ensuring every animal feels secure, loved, and well cared for.
“Nicole was great! My dog adored her and her dog and excitedly waited by the door in the morning to go to day care while I worked for a few weeks in Manhattan Beach. She was very flexible with timing and accommodating. If I lived nearby I would book with Nicole frequently.”


“Megan was prompt to answer, eager to host! My dogs were comfortable from the moment they met her! They played in her yard and hung out on her couch! She accommodated an early pick up and the pups came back happy and well exercised! She did a great job! Thank you Megan! Highly recommend her!”

“Lindsey made our first time at a doggy daycare a breeze! Cooper absolutely loved his first two days with Lindsey and we are *both* looking forward to his next time!”


About: Being a senior makes me old school, like being exactly on time or a bit early. I subscribe to the Dog Whisperer tenet of being ALPHA and pack leader to dogs in my care. A dog in a pack is a happy dog. I only use positive reinforcement. Ex.: dog pulling on the leash can be fixed by changing directions every 4 steps to the left, walking in a square, this encourages the dog to slow down and watch his human. Dog hair is a welcome addition to a life well lived, that's why my dogs get furniture and bed privileges. One fact about my dogs i pay attention to is how many sips of water they take. On a very hot day I've seen 30-40. This helps me know easily how my pet is feeling so I can react accordingly. Maybe time to put the soft Frisbee away! I'm fully retired, and rise early, so morning walks are easy. Breakfast is next, and 1hr later another walk outside. I like to prep a bag to take to the park. My fav is Schiller Park in German Village. I don't own a pet currently, I've had some health issues that are now resolved. Having been an owner twice in my life has given me many many experiences so I am flexible.
“Mary was fantastic and took such good care of Archie! He played HARD with another puppy there and slept like a baby when he got home. He had so much fun! Thank you for watching him!”

“Simon was amazing with Hazel! He kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout the day. Hazel came home worn out from all the fun she had at Simon’s. We’re incredibly grateful for his patience, especially since Hazel is still learning her manners after we adopted her from the shelter a few months ago. Simon even went the extra mile by helping teach her commands. He’s been wonderful, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to him for care again in the future.”

“Michele is a very kind, animal loving, and extremely knowledgeable on pet care. With two days of day care in her home, my rescue puppy now is much more confident than she was before meeting Michele. She got plenty of exercise and attention!”

Ellen was great! She was ready at the time of drop off and immediately made Kal feel welcome. She sent me pictures to let me know that my pup was doing good. Ellen had all of his things ready to go when I arrived. Her patience with my puppy was exceptional! Kal-El didn't want to get into the car. Highly recommend... I will be back.
This was my first time ever having a dog sitter and Michelle made it such an easy and great experience. Michelle provided lots of pictures and videos and made sure my Aussie got plenty of attention and exercise. I highly recommend Michelle and would definitely leave my dog with her again.
