Dog Sitting in Tiffin

About: I've provided in home pet sitting for my coworkers for several years so they can enjoy a worry free vacation. I treat them as if they are family. I work full time, so staying house sitting works out best for me. This also helps your pet feel more comfortable since they are in the environment they are used to I stay in my client's home so not only are your pets being looked after, but you don't have to worry about leaving your home empty either.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and currently have a friendly 4-year-old Lab mix named Maverick. I also volunteer with local animal shelters, giving me experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, energy levels, and personalities. As a medical student, I’m used to staying organized, following detailed instructions, and paying close attention to routines and behavior. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your dog needs lots of exercise, extra patience, medication, or just a comfortable place to relax, I’m happy to tailor their care to their individual needs. I’m currently a medical student, and much of my coursework can be completed from home. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care throughout the day. While my schedule varies slightly week to week, I’m generally available for frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and plenty of companionship. I make every effort to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and exercise, and I only board one guest dog at a time so they receive plenty of individual attention. I also have a friendly 4-year-old Lab mix who enjoys other dogs when it’s a good fit. I always take introductions slowly and make sure both dogs are comfortable before allowing interactions. I’m happy to accommodate specific feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and any other instructions that help your pet feel at home.

About: I provide attentive, loving care for both dogs and cats, making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and understood. I’m patient, dependable, and take the time to learn every pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I currently work full-time. I would be available to walk/feed/play during the weekdays after work for a couple of hours. I have more time on the weekends (Friday-Sunday) for feedings, walks, playtime, check-ins, overnight care, etc. to make sure pets get the time and care they need. I would be able to care for pets in your home. Safety and trust are my top priorities in every home. I follow all care instructions closely and take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and comfort level. My goal is to make the pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while keeping pet parents informed with regular updates and photos.

About: I am an experienced caregiver with strong attention to safety, and I grew up caring for my neighbors’ and friends’ dogs. I love walking calm, more relaxed dogs, but I also enjoy caring for energetic, enthusiastic dogs as well. I started walking neighbors’ dogs at a younger age and have always enjoyed being able to provide safe, fun walks while building trust and strong bonds with every dog. My dream dog is a Miniature Dachshund, and I plan to get one once I'm out of school and have the time to care for one full-time. In the meantime, I'd love to use my extra free time to care for your dog and treat them like they're my own! I work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to care for your pets. I love going on daily walks and would enjoy having your dog as my companion, and I’m even open to short runs for high-energy dogs that need to get some extra energy out! I’m available for walks and drop-ins most weekdays and can also be available on weekends. During walks and drop-ins, I make sure your dog gets bathroom breaks, exercise, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I focus on keeping your pet comfortable by following their normal routine and respecting your home. I’m also comfortable safely crating dogs when needed. I do especially well with clear instructions and take the time to understand your dog’s specific needs, behaviors, and preferences to provide the safest, most personalized care possible.

“Awesome sitter who kept me updated on my kitties throughout my trip”

About: I've had pets my entire life and 16+ years caring for animals, both my own and others. I'm comfortable with routines to more involved care, medications (including insulin) and senior pet care. I love getting to know each pet's quirks, routines, and boundaries. I'm not a certified trainer, but I've been actively involved with in-home training and understand the importance of consistency and trust! I've cared for all kinds of animals... scales, feathers, shells, or something a little more unconventional, so I'm happy to care for those critters too. Your pet(s) will be safe, respected, and thoroughly cared for. I'll provide updates for peace of mind while you're away, and you'll come home to a happy animal treated like one of my own! I’m a lifelong animal lover (and currently proud pet parent) with a degree in Psychology and background in healthcare, so I bring a high level of detail and care to every pet I visit. I work a remote 8:30am–5pm schedule Monday to Saturday (excluding Thursdays, my day off). Because I work from home, my evenings and Sundays are entirely dedicated to play, walks, scritches, and feeding routines! While I’m not currently available for 24hr live-in care, I’m the perfect match for owners looking for reliable AM/PM check-ins/walks, evening companionship, or overnight stays. I believe every pet deserves a space where they feel safe, seen, and completely adored! My goal is to keep their routine steady and their spirits high while you’re away. Whether it’s an energetic evening walk or a quiet dinner-time visit, I show up with a positive attitude and a lot of love to give. -- A Note on My Home vs. Yours -- To keep things peaceful for my own two cats, I don’t host other furry friends in my own house. This actually works out great because it means when I’m with your pet in their familiar environment, they have my undivided attention! I’m all about creating a calm, happy experience for them right where they feel most comfortable. (P.S. If you have a reptile like a lizard or a snake, I’m open to discussing a special scenario for hosting them since they won't ruffle any feline feathers.)

“Luna and Milo just love when Sydney cares for them! She is always on time and an excellent commentator. We will continue to use her services when she’s available!”

“Brittany was wonderful! Very responsive to messages, flexible with scheduling and able to help out without significant advance notice. My dog loved spending time with her and I trusted her to take great care of my pup. I got frequent updates and photos with every visit. I strongly recommend Brittany for all of your drop in and/or dog walking needs!”

About: I have had and cared for pets most my life, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and other rodents. I currently simultaneously take care of a black lab and border collie frequently. I am recently retired and have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I care for a black lab and a border collie on a regular basis, so I’m very comfortable with high-energy dogs that need both physical activity and attention. Walks, playtime, and keeping them on their routine are a natural part of their care. I’ve also cared for cats, rabbits, and other small animals, so I understand that each pet has different needs—whether that’s active play, quiet companionship, or simply a calm, consistent presence. Making sure pets feel safe, cared for, and happy fits seamlessly into my everyday life. I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment, whether in my home or a client’s home, and I follow routines and instructions closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s normal schedule, including feeding, exercise, and any special care. In my home, pets receive close supervision, structure, and plenty of attention. I stay alert to behavior and surroundings to ensure pets are safe at all times. My goal is dependable, attentive care so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.

About: I have had a labrador retriever my whole life, so from a young age I learned how to care for dogs. I have experience walking dogs and pet sitting. I am a dental student free for the summer which means I have lots of time on my hands to walk and care for dogs! I like to spend time with my dog whether that be on a walk or just seeing them for a few minutes to let them out. Whenever I am with dogs, I like to make them feel comfortable and loved.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog lover who’s excited to help take care of your furry family member. I’m available for afternoon walks during the week, and on weekends I can provide morning and evening feedings along with plenty of playtime and walks to keep your pup happy and active. I’ve had experience caring for dogs for friends and family, so I understand how important it is to keep pets on their routine while giving them lots of love and attention. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, or just someone dependable to check in, I’m here to help! I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I do have a full time job so before and after work is best for me and I’m available mostly every weekend! I can do a very quick lunch potty break if needed! My 2 dogs are treated like my kids-part of the family. Playing hard outside and then snuggling up on the couch or in bed at night!

About: I do not personally own any dogs but I have lived with dogs my whole life. Each dog ranged in size, one of the bigger dogs I have had was a German Shepard. I recently moved here to Iowa from Ohio. I watch 3 amazing kids a few days a week. Since I only have them for 2-3 days a week, I would be able to walk/watch your dogs and cats more frequently At the clients home I would ensure the fur baby would have food and water. I would also, depending on backyard situations, take them out in the yard to play. If there isn’t a lead or fenced in yard then I would take him or her on a walk. All animals should feel loved but also worn out after our walks and play time!

“Jim did an amazing job with both our dogs! We felt so comfortable entrusting them to him. Our pups were very happy and the photos and notes left by Jim prove it!”

About: to be blunt: I love animals. I treat them like kids, they need attention and love. I'll make sure your pet feels cared about while you're away! I'm currently only volunteering and working on coding in my free time so i'm very flexible and available! I build my schedule around the animals I am caring for, whether that's ensuring I have time for midday play breaks, afternoon walks, or late night cuddling time, I will make sure to communicate that I am able to be there and show up for your pet. I take a calm, safety-first approach in every single home I enter. I like to follow routines, and I will follow yours to a T. I always ensure that doors and gates are closed and secured, and I always check in to see if anything seems off. In my home, pets get a quiet, low-stress environment with lots of supervision.

“Lily is very dependable & does a great job with my two dogs! It’s so helpful to have someone to let them out while I’m at work & they both look so happy in the pictures she sends.”

Shelby B.

“Meredith did an outstanding job minding our two cats and she was more than willing to assist with getting mail, light watering of plants/garden, and emptying our dehumidifier while we were on vacation for almost two weeks. Communication (and pictures!) were excellent and I really never worried whether our animals and home were in good hands while we were away. I would not hesitate to use her again in the future.”
