Dog Sitting Toledo

About: I have pet sat dogs and cats for family, friends, neighbors, etc. for many years. I have experience with big and small dogs and cats. I volunteered at the Humane Society of Greater Dayton where I walked and spent time and bonded with animals coming from difficult situations. I am strong and can handle larger animals. I am in graduate school for a helping profession as well, so I am very patient and will treat your pets and your home with the upmost respect. I am a graduate student interning full time M-F, however I am available after 4pm on weekdays and I am very flexible on weekends. I have reliable transportation. I keep my home clean and organized, and I plan to treat any home I enter with similar care and respect. It is a privilege to be welcomed into someone’s home.

“Abbey took care of our three family cats while we were on vacation in Florida for nine days, and I cannot say enough good things about the experience. Before we left, I was very worried about being away from them because our cats are such an important part of our family. Abbey made it so much easier for us to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing they were in such good hands. She communicated exceptionally well, providing updates after every visit along with pictures and videos of our cats. Seeing them and knowing how they were doing gave us tremendous peace of mind. She also kept their litter boxes clean, made sure they had fresh water and their food was full, made sure they had treats, and clearly gave them plenty of attention and care. What truly stood out was how she went above and beyond. We have an outdoor cat who would greet her every day and was always very vocal when she arrived. One day he didn't show up when she arrived. Concerned, Abbey spent time looking around for him but couldn't find him. Even though she wasn't scheduled to come the next day, she returned the next day specifically to check on him. Thankfully, he was there waiting to greet her, and knowing that she cared enough to come back and make sure he was okay meant so much to us.   Abbey is kind, dependable, caring, and truly treats your pets as if they were her own. We would absolutely use her again for future vacations and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust to care for their cats. She is wonderful! 🐾❤️”

About: Hi! My name is Kandra! I grew up on a farm so I've been around animals my whole life! My family has always had cats and dogs at all stages of their life and in various health conditions, so I've seen it all. More recently I've had experience puppy sitting for my brother and dog sitting for my sister on a number of occasions. I understand the love that you have for your furry companions and will treat them with the same love and care. I just moved to Toledo to be closer to family! I'm hoping to dog walk part-time during weekdays. I can do early mornings (starting at 7:30am), lunch breaks, and afternoons. I offer 30 minute walks, up to 1 hour long walks through the neighborhood or nearby parks. Also 30 minute drop ins for potty breaks, feeding, and play time while you are away or at work! I really value making sure you and your dog are as comfortable as possible. I'm more than happy to adhere to any specifications, adjustments, and needs for your pet specifically to make sure they feel calm, comfortable, and relaxed under my care!

“Natalie was great! Kept great communication before and during her visits. Really grateful she was able to check on the cats and the house for us!! Would definitely recommend. Thanks again!”

About: I have recent hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments in professional settings. I also have a lifetime of experience as a dog and cat owner and lover! As a doggy daycare employee, I've safely managed groups of dogs in daycare, supervised structured play, monitored body language to prevent conflicts, and provided individualized care based on each dog's needs and personality. I also work as a dog handler for a professional goose management company, where I handle border collies in outdoor environments while maintaining focus, safety, and reliable leash skills around wildlife, distractions, and changing conditions. This work has strengthened my confidence handling energetic working dogs in public spaces. My experience includes: - Supervising group play and monitoring canine body language - Individual walks and exercise - Feeding, fresh water, and medication support with instructions - Cleaning kennels and maintaining a safe, sanitary environment - Crate rotations and rest breaks - Reinforcing good manners with positive interactions - Caring for puppies, senior dogs, and high-energy breeds I love every dog like it is my own and am ready to take care of your loved one when needed! My schedule is generally very flexible! I do have a few shorter recurring commitments during the weekdays, but I have availability before and after them, as well as on evenings and weekends. If you're looking for care on a specific day or time, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to work with you to find something that fits both of our schedules whenever possible. I always try to keep pets on the routine they're most comfortable with. Whether I'm in your home or caring for your pet during a walk or drop-in visit, I'll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any special needs or preferences. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe and relaxed while you're away. My professional experience in dog daycare has taught me to pay close attention to body language, energy levels, and individual personalities. Some dogs want to play nonstop, while others just want a calm companion and a good walk. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection while also keeping safety my top priority. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Stephanie was beyond amazing -- every day she was on-time or early, spent tons of time loving my kitties, and went out of her way to clean even when not asked to so that when we came home from a long trip, it wouldn't be stressful. Will be rebooking with her asap, she made traveling so easy for us.”

“I've never used Rover before and I was nervous about having a stranger watch my dog, Violet. Kaity came over for a meet & greet before our first booking and put my anxiety at ease! She was so good with Violet and I could tell Violet felt comfortable with Kaity. Kaity sent plenty of pictures from their visit and Violet looked so happy with her new buddy!”

“Highly recommend Kayla! I have a 19 week puppy full of energy and Kayla surely gets all his energy out like requested. She doesn’t just let him out to go potty and sits around. She actually plays with him and makes sure he’s running around and spending all his puppy energy. I’m very happy with her services!!!! Used her twice already and will be rebooking for sure.”

“Nancy did an amazing job watching Benny while I was out of town! ❤️ She communicated with me thoroughly the entire time, kept me updated, sent pictures, and made sure Benny was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while I was away. I truly appreciate the care and attention she gave him and would definitely recommend Nancy to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their fur baby! 🐾❤️”

About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I currently have two cats, two dogs, a gerbil, and fish, so I’m very familiar with the daily responsibilities that come with keeping pets happy and healthy. In addition to caring for my own animals, I’ve house sat for families for weeks at a time and have experience watching multiple large dogs as well as small dogs. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication reminders, or simply giving your pets plenty of attention, I always treat them like they’re my own. I also work at Promedica Hospital in Toledo with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable care and spend quality time with your pets. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine since I have two dogs, two cats, a gerbil, and fish of my own. I work part time at ProMedica Hospital, and my flexible schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets. Whether it’s daily visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or overnight house sitting, I’m able to provide dependable, attentive care and make sure your pets stick to their normal routine while you’re away. I don’t have any other commitments outside of my part-time job. I always care for pets based on their individual needs and stick as closely as possible to their normal routine. In my clients’ homes, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, receive lots of attention, and are kept in a clean, safe environment. I’m happy to go on walks, clean litter boxes, take dogs outside for potty breaks, and give updates so owners know their pets are doing well. When caring for pets, I treat them like they’re my own by being patient, attentive, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their family is away.

“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!”

“Rachel is fantastic! She is loving to our elderly dog Zoey. She puts us at ease while we are gone by taking many pictures at each visit and giving detailed descriptions of her visits.”
