“Stefania took great care of our cat and dog while we were away. Our dog is usually very shy, but by day 3, she was playing and wanting belly rubs, which Stefania took the time to give her. I'd highly recommend her.”

“Jacob has watched my senior dog multiple times. He is very kind and quick to respond. He is always sends good pic so I know my old man is getting well cared for. Will always try to rebook him for my dog”

“Adrian was amazing with my reactive pup, Finn. He is very particular about who cares for him, so we did a meet and greet beforehand. Finn immediately took to Adrian, so I knew it was a good fit. He sent thorough updates and pictures with each drop-in visit. Based on the updates, I know Finn loved and trusted Adrian. I cannot recommend Adrian enough and will absolutely rebook with him.”


About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with both dogs and cats. My family has had dogs of all sizes, including three pit bulls and a mastiff so I’m very comfortable with larger breeds as well as smaller pets. Our family dogs and cats have ranged from young puppies to seniors, which has given me experience adjusting to different energy levels, routines, and care needs throughout a dog’s life. I’ve also cared for our pets on my own for week-long periods when family members were away, making sure they were happy, safe, and well cared for. More recently, I adopted my own cat named Muffin, who I’ve had for the past seven months. Being a pet owner myself has made me appreciate how important it is to find someone you trust, and I would care for your pets with the same attention and care I give my own. I work part-time in the evenings, which gives me a flexible schedule during the day. Most days I’m available after 11:00 AM for drop-in visits, walks, feedings, or spending quality time with your pets. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they get the care and attention they need while you’re away. I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Every animal is different, so I take the time to get to know their personality and routine rather than treating every visit the same. I’ll make sure they get the care, attention, and consistency they’re used to, while also treating your home with respect and keeping you updated so you never have to wonder how things are going.

About: I bring over 6 years of pet sitting experience, along with a year of hands-on service dog training. This background has given me strong skills in structure, positive reinforcement, and confidently working with dogs of all temperaments. I’m comfortable reinforcing training for puppies, providing mental stimulation for high-energy dogs, and offering patient, attentive care for seniors who may need a slower pace or extra support. Safety, consistency, and clear communication are always my priorities. In addition to training service dog pups, I’ve trained my own dogs using cues in different languages, strengthening my understanding of how dogs learn and respond to clear, consistent guidance. I don’t just “watch” pets — I actively engage with them. Whether it’s structured walks, playtime, or reinforcing good manners, I make sure your pet feels secure, stimulated, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I can accommodate weekday and weekend bookings and will communicate clearly about any scheduling changes in advance. Every pet deserves patience, consistency, and a safe space while their family is away. I’m attentive, reliable, and committed to providing loving care while maintaining clear communication and a secure home environment.

“Laura is amazing with our doggie! She gives her lots of love while we are out of town, and treats her as if she was her own dog. We will definitely keep scheduling with her. You will like her with your doggies too!”
About: I have had a puppy from when I was 7-20. I have seen all the stages with my best friend and would love to help bring you comfort in knowing your best friend is in safe hands. I took care of neighbors, coworkers, and family's pets as well. I am a full-time college student looking for some money to help with finances. I am available most days and most hours as long as I'm not in class. I am always free! I do live in an apartment complex with one other roommate, but we are willing to have care here for your pet. You can provide anything you need for your pet, or I can provide it at my apartment! We have lots of spots to walk around. I live right on the edge of a park, so we can go play!

“She was very kind and knowledgeable! Was understanding of my forever changing schedule and made me feel safe leaving my cat with her! Hope to have her again if I need another pet sitter”

About: I grew up with a dog and have since provided pet sitting services for neighbors and friends. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. I currently volunteer at the county dog shelter, where I work with dogs of all temperaments, including shy or nervous pets who need extra time to warm up to new people. Being very active myself, I’m also comfortable handling strong dogs who tend to pull during walks. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pups while you're away on trips or at work! I work a typical 9-to-5 schedule and primarily work from home, which allows me to take breaks and visit or walk your pets frequently throughout the day. I currently don't have any pets of my own, so your pet will receive my full attention while in my care. I am happy to meet before booking to see if I am the right fit for your pet!
About: For awhile I have had dogs and cats all over me. Growing up I have been in charge of family pets occasionally just making sure they are loved and fed. I also have dog/cat sit a few times for my friends/neighbors while they are on vacation. I have also done a good job on following directions and taking care of issues. Right now I am in college at Ohio University, I definitely have time to watch any animals you have anytime before or after my classes and during the weekends! I have two black labs and two cats that I love endlessly, I play with them all the time making sure they are played with and fed well, as well as my family does too. One of my dogs has been through surgery for back legs after both tore ACL which causes to limp and with that, I know ways to help care for in a situation for any dogs.
“Shelby was very helptful and understanding of our needs, and was very good at keeping our cats fed and taken care of while we were out of town. Would recommend and come back to her next time!”

“Kate communicated with us daily and sent pictures. She took excellent care of all of our pets, including our 19 year old cat, who needs medication every day. I would definitely recommend her.”

About: I've had pets basically my whole life. I grew up with inside and outside dogs, as well as a farm cat that I took care of regularly. I've been through obedience training with both of my dogs now, and we walk and play every day! I work from 8:00~2:00 weekdays. I take my own dogs on walks every day. I have plenty of time to take care of your pets if you're ever in need of assistance! I have two inside dogs at my house. When I bought the house, I had a fence put in and extended the yard so they can be outside and play safely, whenever they want. We go on long and short walks daily. Animals deserve the same care and respect that people do, and I treat my animals, and any other I know, like friends! Treat them right and they'll be great!

Kristin was fantastic, as always, providing care for my kitties when I was gone for 2 weeks. She went above and beyond to make sure they received the best care and handled unforseen issues diligently, responsibly, and with excellent communication. For example, thevcats needed a booster vaccine during the sit and she made sure that got done, and monitored them for any side-effects. She also cleaned the cat area through the visit and cleaned their fountain to make sure they had great conditions. She noticed a change in traffic pattern near my house and asked for clarification to be sure she drove the right way. All-around phenomenal sitter - you should hire her!
