“Gabrielle was great! She took our little old man at the last minute and took great care of him! He has lots of senior dog needs and she was great with all of that as well! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Wonderful family who took great care of our dog! We would definitely use them again. They took time beforehand to make sure they knew what he would need and sent a photo and update each day. The boys were so excited to help take care of him. We could tell that our dog had been very happy and comfortable in their home when we picked him up.”
“Stephen and Angela were great! They were great with communication and setting up our dog's stay. We have an older dog who gets anxious at typical boarding facilities but she came home happy, tired, and well cared for. We will definitely use them again next time she needs to stay somewhere!”

About: I'm Sean, a lifelong dog lover offering boarding and in a safe, comfortable, home based environment. For more than 25 years, dogs have been an important part of my life. I've always shared my home with one or two dogs of my own, giving me extensive hands on experience caring for puppies and elder dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. As a self-employed professional who works from home, I can provide plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and outdoor time throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will enjoy a welcoming, family oriented environment where they will feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Being four-pawed pet free since March 2026, I've realized just how much joy, companionship, and energy dogs bring into a home. Caring for your pet allows me to continue doing something I genuinely enjoy while giving your dog a home away from home and giving you peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I am available full-time and every dog is unique, so you can expect that I will tailor each day to your pet's age, energy level, personality, exercise requirements, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide. Mornings will include an early morning potty break and outdoor time, breakfast according to your dog's normal feeding schedule, a walk, play session, or quiet outdoor exploration depending on your dog's preferences. There will be plenty of attention and companionship as the day begins. Throughout the day there will be multiple supervised outdoor breaks in the spacious yard and surrounding dog friendly areas. This will include long walks, short walks, play sessions, or relaxation time based on your dog's needs. Fresh water will be available at all times. There will be frequent interaction, supervision, and companionship since I work from home and there will also be comfortable indoor rest periods between activities. Afternoons and evenings will include additional outdoor exercise and activities, dinner according to your dog's established routine, relaxation time indoors with plenty of attention and affection, evening potty breaks and if necessary a walk before bedtime. Individualized care is important for your dog's well being, so before your dog's stay, I will learn about feeding schedules and dietary restrictions, medication requirements, favorite activities and exercise preferences, commands and training cues your dog responds to, sleeping habits and comfort needs and any special routines that will help your dog feel at home. My goal is to maintain as much of your dog's normal routine as possible and provide a safe, comfortable, attentive environment where your dog can enjoy exercise, companionship, and personalized care. Whether your dog loves long walks and adventure or prefers a relaxed day of lounging and affection, their stay will be tailored to help them feel right at home. One of the unique advantages of staying here is the abundance of safe outdoor space available just steps from the door. Dogs have access to multiple walking environments, including a spacious backyard, peaceful green spaces, a scenic Ohio River promenade, and quiet, low traffic roads surrounded by natural scenery. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, leisurely sniffing adventures, or simply relaxing outdoors, there are plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and exploration throughout the day. For safety, dogs are walked on leash unless specific off leash activities have been discussed in advance and are appropriate for a well trained dog with reliable recall. Any off leash exercise is considered carefully and only with owner approval. Inside the home, dogs enjoy a comfortable, crate free environment unless crating is specifically requested by the owner. Large living areas with dog accessible windows and a secure outdoor deck provide additional space to relax, observe the outdoors, and enjoy fresh air between activities. I am always happy to arrange a meet and greet, either in person or by video call, so you can feel completely comfortable before booking.
“Samantha was absolutely amazing with my cat! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, attentive, and clearly truly cares about animals.

I would absolutely book with Samantha again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter. Thank you again, Samantha!”
“I’ve been really happy with how Kaitlyn takes care of our Labradoodle. She’s great about keeping us updated and our girl loves going over there! I will continue using Kaitlyn whenever I need a sitter.”
“Lilli was great communicating with us regarding Penny. We were out of cell network, so some photos and updates didn't work, but with some extra efforts, Lilli was able to let us know that she and Penny were doing fine, and she managed to send photos despite the setback. We will rebook with her when we have need of sitter!”
“Stephanie and her family made my 14 year old chihuahua feel so loved and welcomed during her stay. I had such a great experience from the moment I messaged her, fast responses, she let me see her house before I agreed to book, and she definitely cares for your furr baby like if it’s where one of her own. I will 100% be using Stephanie in the future and would recommend her to anyone on this app. Thank you Stephanie!”

About: Hi! My name is Allie! My life revolves around my two border collies. We are constantly off finding adventures...hiking down new trails, swimming in lakes, herding sheep! Of course, we love an inside, sit on the couch type of day, as well. Whichever kind of day your pet needs, I would love the opportunity to care for them. I attended three years of veterinary technician school and have worked in several hospitals and shelter settings. From all those experiences, I learned how to interact with different personalities and treat medical emergencies. I am now in a different field that allows me to work from home the majority of the time. Therefore, I will be available to spend all day with your pets! I have also had horses my whole life and grew up working on ranches. If you have a hobby farm or other animals that need to be cared for, I am happy to do that as well! Feel free to message me with any questions you may have. I can't wait to meet you and your furry ones! I work from home most days. If I am called away, then it is for a couple hours at a time. My goal is to never leave your pup alone for more than a couple of hours. In that time, they can either be crated or have full access to our guest room for all their napping needs. :) I have a very large, fully fenced in backyard to play in. I have two border collies that have never met a stranger. Depending on your dogs needs, we will take the proper steps to ensure every one is safe and happy for the entirety of their stay.

I live on a large farm in Switzerland County so your fur babies will have plenty of room to run and play. I have two dogs, two cats, and two pigs to keep your fur friends company.

Throughout the week, I stay flexible to meet each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s extra visits, longer walks, or special care. I’m reliable and make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and kept on their normal routine. I follow all feeding instructions, give fresh water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of exercise and attention. I also provide playtime, affection, and calm companionship so they feel at ease while you’re away. I keep the space clean and always respect the client’s home just like it’s my own.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong attention to detail and the level of care and communication I provide. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m experienced with both puppies who need consistency and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, monitoring, or medication. I prioritize clear, ongoing communication by regularly checking in with owners, sending updates and photos, and making sure they feel confident about how their pets are doing. I’m also happy to help with small errands, such as picking up pet supplies or essentials, to make time away as stress-free as possible. I treat every pet as if they were my own and every home with care and respect. Not scared of dirty work, cleaning litter boxes, wiping paws and administering meds. I currently work from home part time and have a flexible schedule. So I I have a lot of flexibility, for overnights and dropping by during the day. I provide pet care exclusively in the client’s home, allowing pets to remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, dietary needs, exercise, and daily routines. Care includes providing fresh water, playtime, walks if needed, companionship, and administering medications as directed. I also maintain cleanliness by cleaning litter boxes, cages, and pet areas, and I ensure the home is left tidy and secure after each visit. I prioritize the pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being while providing regular updates to owners for peace of mind.

“Gabrielle was great! She took our little old man at the last minute and took great care of him! He has lots of senior dog needs and she was great with all of that as well! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Wonderful family who took great care of our dog! We would definitely use them again. They took time beforehand to make sure they knew what he would need and sent a photo and update each day. The boys were so excited to help take care of him. We could tell that our dog had been very happy and comfortable in their home when we picked him up.”
“Stephen and Angela were great! They were great with communication and setting up our dog's stay. We have an older dog who gets anxious at typical boarding facilities but she came home happy, tired, and well cared for. We will definitely use them again next time she needs to stay somewhere!”

About: I'm Sean, a lifelong dog lover offering boarding and in a safe, comfortable, home based environment. For more than 25 years, dogs have been an important part of my life. I've always shared my home with one or two dogs of my own, giving me extensive hands on experience caring for puppies and elder dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. As a self-employed professional who works from home, I can provide plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and outdoor time throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will enjoy a welcoming, family oriented environment where they will feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Being four-pawed pet free since March 2026, I've realized just how much joy, companionship, and energy dogs bring into a home. Caring for your pet allows me to continue doing something I genuinely enjoy while giving your dog a home away from home and giving you peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I am available full-time and every dog is unique, so you can expect that I will tailor each day to your pet's age, energy level, personality, exercise requirements, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide. Mornings will include an early morning potty break and outdoor time, breakfast according to your dog's normal feeding schedule, a walk, play session, or quiet outdoor exploration depending on your dog's preferences. There will be plenty of attention and companionship as the day begins. Throughout the day there will be multiple supervised outdoor breaks in the spacious yard and surrounding dog friendly areas. This will include long walks, short walks, play sessions, or relaxation time based on your dog's needs. Fresh water will be available at all times. There will be frequent interaction, supervision, and companionship since I work from home and there will also be comfortable indoor rest periods between activities. Afternoons and evenings will include additional outdoor exercise and activities, dinner according to your dog's established routine, relaxation time indoors with plenty of attention and affection, evening potty breaks and if necessary a walk before bedtime. Individualized care is important for your dog's well being, so before your dog's stay, I will learn about feeding schedules and dietary restrictions, medication requirements, favorite activities and exercise preferences, commands and training cues your dog responds to, sleeping habits and comfort needs and any special routines that will help your dog feel at home. My goal is to maintain as much of your dog's normal routine as possible and provide a safe, comfortable, attentive environment where your dog can enjoy exercise, companionship, and personalized care. Whether your dog loves long walks and adventure or prefers a relaxed day of lounging and affection, their stay will be tailored to help them feel right at home. One of the unique advantages of staying here is the abundance of safe outdoor space available just steps from the door. Dogs have access to multiple walking environments, including a spacious backyard, peaceful green spaces, a scenic Ohio River promenade, and quiet, low traffic roads surrounded by natural scenery. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, leisurely sniffing adventures, or simply relaxing outdoors, there are plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and exploration throughout the day. For safety, dogs are walked on leash unless specific off leash activities have been discussed in advance and are appropriate for a well trained dog with reliable recall. Any off leash exercise is considered carefully and only with owner approval. Inside the home, dogs enjoy a comfortable, crate free environment unless crating is specifically requested by the owner. Large living areas with dog accessible windows and a secure outdoor deck provide additional space to relax, observe the outdoors, and enjoy fresh air between activities. I am always happy to arrange a meet and greet, either in person or by video call, so you can feel completely comfortable before booking.
“Samantha was absolutely amazing with my cat! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, attentive, and clearly truly cares about animals. I received updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind, and I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty and everything well cared for. I would absolutely book with Samantha again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter. Thank you again, Samantha!”
“Lilli was great communicating with us regarding Penny. We were out of cell network, so some photos and updates didn't work, but with some extra efforts, Lilli was able to let us know that she and Penny were doing fine, and she managed to send photos despite the setback. We will rebook with her when we have need of sitter!”

About: I have always had pets in my life from dogs and cats all the way to smaller mammals to large farm animals. I live on 2 acres with my husband and 4 kids ( oldest being 15 and youngest being 6). We have 2 dogs ( an older pitbull mixed and young Labrador) of our own and 1 cat. We also have a very large fish tank with 3 large fish. Part of my property is fenced off with cattle fencing but the fencing is not directly connected to the house to your dogs will be walked on leash to and from fenced area or just let out on leash. Dogs will be let multiple times a day. Dogs must be crate trained for night time. (Some exceptions might be made)For any extra kitty friends we have a basement that would keep them separated from our own cat. Im currently a stay at home mom dealing with some medical issues and unable to work outside the home. Im home most of the time to be with your furry family I do have fenced yard but fenced isn't connected to house so your fur babies will be walked to and from fence on leash or just walked on leash. Both our dogs are very dog friendly and they both love to play fetch. Your kitty will have own space from our dogs and cat but will still get loved on and to snuggle with someone as my oldest son is in our basement.
“We don’t normally need a dog sitter, but Kristi helped me out in a pinch due to a family emergency, and woke up at the crack of dawn to babysit our 8 week old puppy for the day, it was incredibly nerve wracking trusting a stranger with such precious cargo, but Kristi overperformed and sent us photos/videos every hour, showing us what great and capable hands she was in. She even gave helpful advice to a new puppy dad. I’d recommend her to anyone! 5/5”
