“I came home to a happy little dog! My dog is fearful of everyone when she first meets them. Stranger danger, lol. Michelle did a great job when meeting my dog such that my dog started warming up to her right then. I received updates and pictures at every visit and knowing that she was in good hands allowed me to relax. I am new to the area and I am so happy I found Michelle. I would trust Michelle with my dog’s care again for sure!”
“Kaity took exceptional care of our 13 yo senior cat and 2, 20 month old kittens. From the updates she provided and the pictures she sent it looks like we definitely picked a great caregiver for them. Highly recommend Kaity for anyone needing a very caring and detailed oriented pet sitter.”
“Renée took such good care of all my babies! She sent lots of pictures and played with all of them at least a little. She even sent pics of our grouchy senior cat screaming for her food, as one does when you're a 13 year old cat. I was so happy with the care that Renée provided for both dogs and my gaggle of pocket pets as well! I've never felt better about having someone look in on my pets.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years, both my own and those of friends and family. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs requiring special care. Whether your pet needs help with potty training, medication administration, or just a lot of love and attention, I’m here to provide a safe and comfortable environment for them 🐕 At my home, your dog will enjoy supervised playtime in a secure, fenced yard, along with regular walks and plenty of opportunities to stay active. I pride myself on offering personalized care, ensuring your dog follows their usual routine and receives the attention they’re accustomed to. I tailor my approach to meet each dog's specific needs, and I’m committed to making sure your dog feels right at home while you’re away. I work from home and have very flexible hours. This allows me to easily adjust my schedule to match yours! I'm ready to help with boarding, walking, and drop-in visits any day of the week. When your pet stays with me, they'll have access to a fenced yard to run around and play without worry, I'll always go outside with them to supervise. We live in a quiet pet friendly neighborhood perfect for walks and there's also an open area and park right behind the house we can walk too! I have 3 dog-friendly cats in my home and 2 children that are respectful of animals. If needed I have playpens for puppies and a seperate area for our cats if your fur baby needs some space.
“Teagan did amazing with our 3 dogs. She sent photos during every visit and each time, the dogs looked so excited to see here. Definitely recommend and will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”
About: I have had pets my entire life. I am a certified dog groomer as of 2019. I also take in stray kittens and find them vet help as well as their forever families. I currently don't work, my kids are home for the summer. I have 3 cats and a dog. My animals are feed 2 times a day. I used to be a mobile groomer so I have experience with coming to clients homes and discussing comfort levels and needs of their pets.
About: I have experience cat and dog sitting for various breeds and ages, and have been doing this for most of my adult life—I love it. From taking your dogs on walks, staying over night with your kitties or puppies, or even taking care of them when they are sick (I have experience with diabetic cats), I would love to make sure your pet is taken care of just as you would yourself. I’ve dealt with rambunctious wire hairs, skittish kittens, and everything in between. I am so excited to meet your favorite doggo or kitto and love on them! I currently work a full-time 9-5 job. When it comes to drop-ins and walks I am available before 8:30 am and after 5:30 pm during the week. My schedule on the weekends is more open. When housesitting I am available to stay overnight for as long as needed, but do want owners aware of my work schedule to make sure it will work for them and their animals. However you choose for me to care for your pets inside your home I am ready and prepared to do! I love cuddling with your pets and making sure they are as comfortable as possible while you are away. All I ask is for clear instructions so I can keep your fur baby’s schedule and environment as consistent as possible.
“Chelsea was amazing! She took such great care of our cats and gave great updates. One of our cats usually gets really stressed when we’re away, but he was so happy and relaxed this time with her checking in. I’m so grateful and will definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and I’ve been dog sitting all different breeds and ages for over 5 years. The families I pet sit for always recommend me to other families, so I decided to expand on that! Along with my experience, I’m also looking to go into an animal-related career field, so I enjoy being around animals any chance I get. I’m currently working full time at the Toledo Zoo; however, I do get one hour breaks, which I can use to give potty breaks if within a reasonable distance to my job. I’m looking for a different job, so there is a possibility my availability will open up more. I love getting to know all types fur babies! I can deal with any personality type, as well as give medications if needed. My dog at home gets 4 pills a day, so I relate! I’m a very big communicator with the owners while dog sitting, whether it’s any concerns or just cute pictures!
“Sadey was fantastic! She did daily drop-ins to care for our two dogs, and they loved her. She went above and beyond in every way, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend her!”
“Brooke was wonderful! All the photos and check in notes we received while out of the country made us rest easy knowing our cats were in good hands. Things could not have gone better! She will be our go to Rover for any up coming trips!”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my deep understanding of the importance of routine and exercise for dogs, honed from years of experience with my own pets. My love for the outdoors translates into enjoyable, active walks at parks, ensuring your dog gets the exercise and fresh air they need. Additionally, I have had puppies and old dogs throughout my life and know that not every dog is the same. I had a dog with 3 legs that recently passed and know that patience and learning the dogs personality is important in caring for them successfully. I just finished college in May and worked in Maine all summer at a camp. I’m home now and looking for work. My calendar is open indefinitely until I find another job. I do not have a fenced in yard so I will not be offering in home services. I would be making sure your pet in secure in your home and outside while caring for them. Consistently checking their water and feeding them when they usually do so. Brushing if they require that. Making sure your home is how you left it, respecting your space!
“Jessica was awesome! She sent pictures and updates regularly. She tidied the house up before we got home. She also was able to be booked with short notice, and still squeezed in a meet and greet prior to us leaving. I very much recommend Jessica & we will book again with her in the future.”
