About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have hands on experience with puppies, high energy dogs, and caring for multiple dogs at once. I work part time at a dog grooming shop as a bather, I interact with many different dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, bathing, basic training reinforcement, and giving dogs plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I genuinely treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my schedule as I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible but structured routine. I’m able to balance my job while still making time for pet care during my off days, mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m reliable with planning ahead so I can make sure each pet gets consistent attention, walks, and care without feeling rushed. Even with a part-time job, I prioritize being fully present and dependable when I’m caring for animals. In my client’s home, I always follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their normal routine. I make sure pets are safe, supervised, and never left unattended for long periods. I keep water fresh, follow feeding schedules, and provide regular walks, playtime, and attention. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and any safety concerns to prevent escapes or accidents. I also respect the home by keeping it clean, organized, and treating it with care, just like I would my own.
About: I've been surrounded by cats by whole life and bring calm, patience, and genuine affection to every visit. I take time to know each cat's personality, making sure they feel safe and cared for while you're away. Visits include plenty of pets, engaging play, fresh food and water, and a clean litter box. Based in Cincinnati, I'm available for catsitting and drop-ins anywhere in the metro area. My flexible schedule and free weekends allow me to adapt to your cat's routine. I'm experienced with oral and topical medications and always treat every cat as if they were my own.

Iris was a great communicator throughout and very patient and thorough with the care she provided. Iris exudes a true love and passion for animals. We would highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: I will train the puppies how to give commands. Training will be conducted according to the pet habits of different customers. Dog walking, feeding and bathing services are also available. I can provide you with the status of your pet in real time, so that you can clearly understand the daily actions of your pet and record it. I will take classes every Monday and Wednesday, and I can do part-time work the rest of the time. I can take care of pets from 2pm to 8pm. If you have any other needs, please contact me in advance and I will arrange the time. We connect the cage to the backyard so that the pets can come and go freely. I accept each client's feeding style and I hope we can communicate before the appointment so that I can make a reasonable feeding based on your situation. I will take care of pets in your home, I will protect your personal property, and I will carry a video camera with me for recording.
“Paige was phenomenal with our 4 kitties! She went out of her way to wash our bedding in which one cat had an accident on. Her communication was great. All of the kitties got equal playtime, and our shy kitty even allowed her to see him a few times. I would definitely book her again for drop-in visits.”

About: Although I have more experience with cats, I love all pets in all sizes! I will treat your fur baby exactly the way they are supposed to be treated, like a member of the family. I will make sure your pets are well cared for, loved, and I will try my best to make sure you receive updates along the way because that is what I would like, if it were me. If your buddy needs medicine or special care instructions, I am happy to oblige. I want to make sure your pet feels the least amount of stress possible, because I know how hard it can be when they are away from you. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time during the week to care for your pet and take them for walks. Boarding can happen any day of the week. I have 2 kitties and a pup at home with an unfenced yard in a safe neighborhood. I will make sure your fur baby is cared for on the schedule you need to keep them on track. I do not have a crate, but if you'd like to provide one, I'm happy to crate your baby as needed. Because I stay at home, I will be picking up my kids from school during school days and would love to be able to bring your buddy with me during that time (if they aren't stressed about it).
About: I am a mom and local school teacher! My family would love to take care of your baby. We have watched many dogs throughout the years and would love to meet you! **Out for summer break so home the majority of the time!**. I can run home to let out to potty if needed. My kids and I are home about 2:30 each day and have the rest of the day to play. We love to go on walks and spoil your baby. We are happy to keep in their crate or allow them to sleep in our beds.
“Samantha and her husband did a great job while Becket was at their house today in doggy daycare. She kept us updated with pictures throughout the day and gave us a summary of his day at the end (eating, potty habits, etc) . Our dog loved playing i their big backyard with their dog, Marci. Just what we wanted was a worn out puppy at the end of the day! He enjoyed it so much! We have already booked another date.”
“Forrest just loves going to see Monika and her little sweetie Kimmie. It sure is nice to have some one you can count on and know you baby is going to be taken care of and loved.”
“Brendan took such good care of my dog Minnie, and was able to help me out with doggy day care pretty last minute! Minnie loved spending time with his dog and she was exhausted by the end of the day when I picked her up from all the playing. Thank you Brendan!”
“Jinna and Dui kept Nissy for 5 hours today as a way for them to get to know Nissy and vise versa before she stays with them for a week starting this Friday. Jinna sent pictures and a video during the stay to help alleviate my fears (we’ve never left Nissy with anyone but family before). When I picked her up, she was happy and interacting with Jinna’s dog and another dog Jinna was sitting for…which was really a wonderful surprise because Nissy usually just tries to hide from other dogs. Jinna’s house is very clean and pet friendly, she has a great back yard and she is so sweet and gentle, and is obviously very comfortable caring for other people’s pets. I can finally relax and enjoy myself when we can’t take our pup with us knowing she will be loved and well cared for by Jinna!”
“Max had a wonderful time at his daycare play date with Jennifer and her two pups! I loved all the pics and updates she sent. Looking forward to Max’s longer visit coming up in a few weeks!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have experience with small dogs and big dogs. I have gone through puppy kindergarten classes with my dog as well. I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, Guinea pigs, birds and bearded dragons. Pet care fits into my routine as I am pretty flexible on weekends, so that I can let them out frequently. I work as an instructional assistant for an elementary school. I can care for animals before and after work as well as my lunch breaks. I follow the school schedule and get holidays and breaks off as well. I prefer staying in the clients home so that the pets can stay in their comfort zone and as close to their normal routine. With that said, I am also very flexible. I can stay in the home, offer drop in visits or care for them in my home. Whatever the client prefers.
About: I’ve been surrounded by cats my whole life and bring a calm, patient vibe to every visit—but I love dogs just as much, so tail wags are always welcome too! I take time to get to know each pet’s unique personality, whether that means cozy cuddles, zoomie-fueled playtime, or just being a reassuring presence while you’re away. Expect plenty of pets, play, fresh food and water, and a sparkling clean litter box for cats—or fun walks, outdoor time, and belly rubs for dogs. Based in Cincinnati, I offer pet sitting and drop-ins across the metro area. My flexible schedule (and free weekends!) means I can stick closely to your pet’s routine. I’m experienced with oral and topical medications and treat every furry friend like my own—because they deserve nothing less 🐾 I'm currently on the hunt for a new Agency position, so my days and weeks are completely free currently. Able to be booked at any time. I tailor my care to each pet and the service you choose, because every animal has their own routine and personality. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping things as familiar and stress-free as possible—sticking closely to feeding schedules, walk routines, and favorite playtime activities. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with fresh food and water, and I keep their spaces clean (litter boxes, food areas, etc.). For dogs, that usually means walks, outdoor time, and lots of play (plus belly rubs, of course). For cats, I match their vibe—whether that’s interactive play or just quiet companionship and gentle pets. I’m also experienced with oral and topical medications and always keep an eye on behavior and health, so I can catch anything unusual early. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.

My pets are allowed all over the house, they sleep in bed with me, and I let them on the couch as well. They are my roommates and have the same privileges as me lol

“Kyungyeon was above and beyond the most incredible sitter for our Copper!! We got so many updates and made sure our boy was happy and comfortable the whole time!!!! We are so thankful!!”
“Alexis was great! From picking him up to dropping him off, and everything in between, our dog was happy and we had great peace of mind. She sent us pictures throughout our vacation with updates on our sweet guy.”
“Having two elderly furry babies makes going on a trip a truly difficult decision. We're so lucy to found this warm and loving family take really good care of them. They send us messages and photos every few days to let us know how our babies are doing, which really puts our minds at ease. Michael & Jessica are gentle and attentive, and their children are also sweet angels who love to spend time with our precious babies.”
“Candie took great care of Maisie - and put our minds at ease through the holiday. Her pup is a charming and gentle guy, and they got along very well. We will be back!”
“Ellie is a fantastic dog sitter. She watched our Beagle for 4 days and he was well cared for. He takes several medications and she was experienced with older dogs on meds. I could relax on vacation knowing he was in good hands.”
“Josh has watched our dogs a few times and has done a great job. They adore him and it feels so good to leave them with someone we trust. They get good exercise and we love getting pictures of them!”
“Britny was amazing. Super easy to work with friendly caring, cooper had a great time and I love that she sent lots of pictures to let me know he was doing well. I was never left wondering or worrying about my pup while away on a trip.”
“Christina was great and would recommend her. She provided daily updates and was easy to communicate with throughout the process, from originally booking all the way up past my pup being picked up. Will definitely use Christina again in the future!”
“We’re so grateful for Julie! It can be really difficult to find willing and compassionate care for longer trips. Julie was very responsive and flexible with changes we had to make. She went above and beyond for George and took such good care of him. We had no concerns or worries while we were away and it was such a gift to our family. I highly recommend Julie to anyone and we’re excited to have her care for George in the future!”
