About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, nothing brings me more joy than bonding with animals of every shape, size, and personality! I effortlessly adapt to your pet's unique personality, whether that means endless games of fetch or quiet, cozy companionship for a sweet senior. I am incredibly diligent with feeding schedules, safety, and household rules. Expect regular photo updates, boundless affection, and total peace of mind knowing your pet is in the absolute best hands! I work a hybrid schedule with 2-3 WFH days a week. This means that I can be very flexible with weekday schedules and especially open on weekends. Whether you want a weekend getaway or a weekday check-in, I am more than happy to accommodate in the Dayton area! When caring for pets in your home, my top priorities are keeping your companions safe, comfortable, and strictly adhering to their usual routines. I treat your home with the utmost care and respect—ensuring entryways are always locked, gates are secure, and living spaces stay spotless. For cat households, I'm extra vigilant about double-checking doors, windows, and litter areas, while keeping life completely stress-free for your feline friends. You can count on clear daily updates, frequent photos, and complete peace of mind knowing your home and pets are in conscientious hands.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, usually multiple at a time, all shapes and sizes. Your pup will receive top-tier, attentive care with your instructions followed to the letter. Beyond that, expect plenty of walks, play sessions, cuddles, and adventures. I genuinely love dogs and treat every pet like my own. As a student, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate almost any timing mornings, evenings, weekends, you name it. I work around your needs and will always make your pet my top priority. I have a friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends! When watching pets in your home, you can expect to come back to everything exactly as you left it, if not a little cleaner. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care.

About: Aloha! The only pet care experience I have is small animals due to the apartment complex rules I lived in as a child, as an adult I feed stray animals and do not have any pets of my own due to my love of travel/adventure I can only take care of other people's animals or feed strays at the moment. My neighbors have a Alaskan Husky that I adore so very much that I have bought her treats and toys every few months they don't mind as our families have both been in the neighborhood for decades and have known each other. I would love start a dog walking job to get to know the city and the people who live there. Much Love & Mahalo!

About: I've been a devoted dog parent to my own pup for 3 years, who truly means the world to me. Caring for her has taught me how important patience, gentleness, consistency, exercise, and affection are for a happy dog. I’ve also volunteered with rescue shelters and animal sanctuaries, helping care for dogs and supporting animals in need. Through those experiences, I’ve become comfortable with a wide range of personalities and energy levels. Dogs have always had a special place in my life, and I treat every dog like family. Whether we’re out on an adventure or relaxing on the couch, my goal is always to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Flexible for your pup's needs. Hours of outside play time - including a morning walk, an afternoon trip to the park for running and playing, and an evening walk. Easily adjustable to your pup's energy level. My home is a calm and dog-friendly environment with plenty of supervision and playtime. I have a friendly and playful dog to keep your pup company. Dogs always have access to fresh water, comfortable resting spots, and lots of affection. I pay close attention to their behavior and energy levels to make sure they're happy and comfortable.

About: I’m 21 years old and have had dogs my entire life. I’ve fostered dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs, and I understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities. I also have a rescue dog of my own, which has given me experience with patience, trust-building, and positive care. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and will treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I can accommodate a variety of needs, including walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and overnight care. I enjoy spending time with animals and will make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I provide a safe, loving, and caring environment for every pet in my care. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll follow their usual routine, make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, exercise, and plenty of attention.

About: Things to know about me: 1. I’ve been dog-obsessed since before the age of 5. I’m now 40(ish), and still have to control my natural and immediate impulse to pet every dog I see. And cats…and goats. Mostly dogs. 2. I have extensive experience with dogs of all kinds. I spent years volunteering at the SPCA. I’ve fostered, dog-sat, socialized and walked all kinds of dogs - large to small, long to short, elderly to puppies. I’ve been bitten more times than I care to admit, and I’ve still NEVER met a dog I don’t like. 3. They belong indoors, in the bed, and on the furniture. They deserve the cheese tax and also the chicken tax. There’s no such thing as a bad dog. I said what I said. In short, if you’re in or around the Dayton area and you need a walker or a day-sitter, I’ll be happy to. And I’ll love your dog like they’re my own while I’m with them. I’m currently available Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. throughout the day. I’m occasionally available on weekends during the day, although that availability is a little more infrequent. I’m available to walk and play with your dog, let them out, give treatos or feed as needed, and work on leash training and basic commands if needed.

About: I’ve grown up caring for multiple dogs throughout my life, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and everyday care. I treat every dog like family and prioritize their safety and happiness. I am currently home from college for the summer. I do not have other responsibilities, so caring for your pet is my top priority. I am free every day to be able to feed, walk, and play with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their everyday routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m providing walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll ensure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, meals, and any other care instructions you provide.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs. I’ve had at least three to 7 dogs at a time in my home. As well as cats, ducks and bunnies! I have a unique ability to bond quickly with dogs, and animals. I love them. I believe God put them on earth to help to help us make it through the trials and triumphs of life. I believe all dogs are unique and have the own personality, and should be treated as such. And I will treat your dog as though they are my new friend, and hopefully will become my longtime friend. I have had senior dogs, so I am well aware of the extra care that needs to be given to these special dogs. They deserve to be treated with care and respect. I have also trained my dogs in basic commands. I will always abide by your wishes while caring for your baby. And will willing to listen to any concerns that may arise. I am currently a stay-at-home dog mom. So I have mostly open availability at this time. I’m sure this would be a excellent fit for my life!! While caring for other people’s pets, made sure to go to check on the pets many times a day. During that time, I stay and play, love on them, give treats or feed (if it’s time), play some more, and make sure they are properly tired until the next time I come back. I worry about them, honestly, as though they are my own. So I want to make sure they are happy and safe.
