Kaitlyn was excellent. Took good care of Gino. It was his first time where mom had left for more than just a few then just a few hours. Took care of his meds. Spent time on the couch cuddling and sent me a few pictures. I would use Kaitlyn again for sure

Jamie was wonderful with our dogs. My dogs took to her immediately. You could tell she has had a lot of experience with pet sitting. She was so in tune with my dogs and us as owners as well. She is smart and responsible and exudes positive energy. Would highly recommend. Definitely using her again.

I don’t have enough words to explain how amazing Holly has been! Not only did she take wonderful care of my babies, she was able to extend another day due to me being stuck out of town due to the snow storm. No hesitation! AND she SHOVELED my driveway (a foot of snow!)!!! I just can’t say enough good things! I hope she is available for every over night house sitting job I have in the future! 10 stars ⭐️

About: I currently have a golden retriever named Bennett and 2 cats named Kiki and Juju. I am also a mother to a 7 year old boy named Jude. I have worked as a dog bather and have always had pets growing up. I have dog sat for friends and families my entire life. I am in school for nursing and work as a bartender. My schedule is very flexible. I tend to work 3 days a week so I have plenty of down time to care for your animals. I love to walk and be outside in general and love to have animals with me while doing so. I am in school for nursing so I am naturally empathetic and feel that I was born to be a caregiver. I am also a mom so have plenty of skills with being playful and responsible.

Anabelle was amazing. When Biscuit met her during the meet and greet, he absolutely adored her. During her stay she kept me updated on biscuit with texts and photos. She even did some grooming for him. She took him on walks and even got him to run. I haven’t been able to get him to run in quite some time. Biscuit also does not eat and has severe separation anxiety when I’m gone. He ate and didn’t seem to have any issues while I was away for the week. I will definitely be using her again.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds—from cats and dogs to chinchillas and hamsters—and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Whether they were my own pets or beloved animals of friends and family, I’ve gained experience with a wide range of personalities, routines, and care needs. I pride myself on being adaptable and attentive, adjusting my care to fit each animal’s unique temperament and stage of life. In addition to pet care, I’ve worked with children for over six years, which has strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to care deeply for others—both human and furry. I currently have cats of my own, and while I recently lost my dog, the love and dedication I learned through caring for them stays with me every day. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Im currently a senior at OWU! I love being active and out and about and have been looking for a way to do something I love that I can balance both my classes and personal life. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and comfort level, whether I’m caring for them in my home or in their own environment. Before providing care, I take time to learn about feeding schedules, medications, activity preferences, and any behavioral or medical considerations. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. This includes timely feeding, fresh water, litter box or potty care, playtime or enrichment, and quiet companionship as needed. I am especially attentive to pets who are shy, anxious, or older, allowing them to set the pace for interaction while still ensuring their needs are fully met.

About: I provide a level of care that goes beyond basic sitting or walking—I focus on understanding each dog’s unique personality, needs, and routines so they feel safe, confident, and genuinely cared for. With hands‑on experience in both puppy training and senior dog support, I’m able to tailor my approach to dogs at every life stage. For puppies, I reinforce positive habits like leash manners, crate comfort, and consistent routines to help them grow into well‑behaved, happy companions. For senior dogs, I offer patient, gentle care that respects their pace, mobility, and comfort, including medication reminders and slow, supportive walks. I’m attentive, reliable, and detail‑oriented—always keeping communication open with updates, photos, and notes so you feel connected to your dog’s day. Whether your pup needs structured activity, calm companionship, or specialized attention, I bring a thoughtful, compassionate approach that makes every visit feel personal. Your pet will be treated like a member of the family. P.S. A bit about me...College educated mom continuing to follow her dream of caring for animals in a loving and fun way. Taking care of your pet, requires my full time and attention. I am available daily from 9-8 PM for walks/drop ins and overnight stays most days of the week. I am willing to arrange a weekly set schedule to care for your pet for your convenience. Your pet deserves my undivided attention. I will not house sit more than your dog at a time. I will be sure to respect your home; leave it in the order I found it while caring for your animal.

About: Welcome to the house where the dogs outnumber the humans in both energy and enthusiasm! We’re a lively, dog-loving family who walks (and occasionally jogs… when we’re feeling ambitious). Our resident pack includes an 8-year-old wise woman of a dog who enjoys short play sessions followed by long naps in sunbeams—and a 2-year-old mutt who thinks every guest is here to start a game of tag. They both love other dogs and people, and have excellent references. :) We’ve fostered more dogs than we can count—some with quirks, some with diapers, some with more sass than sense. We’re comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. If your pup has a weird habit, chances are we’ve seen weirder (and probably let it sleep in our bed). Long story short: your dog will be treated like family—spoiled and sent home happy. Vaccinated pets only please. Please note: pickups after 9:00 PM must be pre-approved, otherwise, it may be considered a sleepover and subject to an additional fee. (Our dogs get cranky if their bedtime is disrupted… and so do we.) I work part time (roughly 8am - 1pm), Monday through Thursday in Westerville. Sometimes I can work from home and / or check in at lunch time. We have a fenced in area in addition to the fenced in area that surrounds our in-ground, dog friendly pool. We have a trail through our woods with lots of great sniffing spots!

Corrinn did a great job! She provided updates often and seemed to really bond with my kitties. I have 4 senior cats that have special needs and I felt very at ease with them in her care. They are very routine orientated and Corrinn didn’t miss a beat with the feeding and medicine schedules. I would definitely rebook and recommend her.

About: I’ve been a proud dog and cat mom for more than 40 years. I spent three decades in the corporate world — often working long hours or traveling for business. Leaving my fur kids behind was always the hardest part, especially when it came to finding someone I could truly trust to love and care for them the way I would. ​ That experience inspired me to offer pet care built on trust, compassion, and genuine love for animals. Knowing that you can head out for the day (or that much-needed vacation) with total peace of mind — that’s what makes this work so rewarding. ​ I grew up in southwestern Ohio, where I began pet sitting in my neighborhood at the age of 13. My lifelong love of animals has led me to volunteer with local humane societies and rescue groups, and I've also been a foster mom. Our most recent "foster fail" is Pippa, a sassy one-year-old ginger kitty. Our fur family also includes two tabby cats, Bo and Cledus, who we adopted as kittens four years ago), and two rowdy pups who are also rescues, Wally (age 12) and Milo (age 2), bothShih Tzu mixes. I'm retired from my corporate marketing career and work a part-time job a few days a week. That leaves plenty of time for drop-in visits or to take your fur baby on a walk. I'm in the neighborhood, which means I'm nearby when you need unexpected help. I'm happy to provide loving care when you can't be there. I have a senior dog who has some medical issues that require extra attention. I also have a young pup who demands lots of attention, including daily walks. I'm experienced in the full spectrum of dog care. My dogs are leash-trained and crate trained. I also have 3 cats, ranging from 1 to 4 years and have experience brushing, feeding, hairball treating, litter box cleaning and playing.

Grace did an amazing job taking care of Maisey and our home. She was proactive in sending us pictures and updates of Maisey and was responsive to any communication from us. She left the house clean and tidy and Maisey happy and tired. Which is something for a young GSP! We highly recommend her pet sitting/housing sitting!
