About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have grown up around dogs my whole life. I currently have two dogs at home, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals whether that’s going on walks, playing, giving attention and cuddles, or just keeping them company. I love all kinds of animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone else, so I always try to provide updates and make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable. My goal is to make your pet happy, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away! Experience: Lifelong experience caring for dogs and being around animals Have two dogs at home (used to have cats) and understand daily pet care routines Experienced with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving medications if needed Comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels Patient and attentive with shy, anxious, or high-energy pets Love spending quality time with animals and making them feel comfortable and cared for I’m currently a college student and will be a junior at Miami University this fall. Over the summer, I’m living at home with my family, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I work as an RBT, but I only work around 3 hours a day and I’m completely free on weekends, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and lots of attention throughout the day. Because of my flexible schedule, your pets won’t be left alone for long periods of time and will get plenty of care, playtime, and supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a safe, pet-friendly home with my family and have experience caring for animals with different personalities and energy levels. We have two friendly dogs at home, a Labradoodle and a Schnoodle, who get along very well with other animals. Our home also has a large open backyard with a pond, a front yard, and plenty of space for pets to play and explore safely. We also have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained or needs their own quiet space. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, and I will always treat your pet like part of the family. I’m responsible, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Jake enjoyed playing in the fenced in yard. We don't have one, unless we take him to the dog park he has to be on a leash. He had a good time. Thank you Xander for taking such good care of him!”

About: Hi! I’m Carley, and I have had dogs my entire life—from Scotties and Westies to Golden Retrievers and, of course, the best kind of dogs…mutts! I work full-time from home, which means your dog will have plenty of company and won’t be left alone for long periods. My home has a large, fully fenced privacy yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and burn off energy throughout the day. I have experience with both dog sitting and house sitting, but I prefer boarding dogs in my home because I can provide more supervision and keep a close eye on everyone. I also have one friendly dog who enjoy having canine visitors. As I often watch my sister’s dogs and have had 6 dogs at once that I looked after. I’ll admit it—I can be a little overprotective when it comes to my own dog, and I’ll treat yours with that same level of care. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and being treated like part of the family.

About: Nice to meet you! I am currently in my gap year before medical school. My genuine and caring personality comes from my many years working at a senior living facility, at the James Cancer Hospital, as an at-home caregiver, and now at a primary care office. While healthcare is my main field, I grew up with animals and they have a soft spot in my heart! People would describe me as responsible, diligent, and more than willing to lend a helping hand! Please feel free to reach out! Monday through Thursday I work 7:45am to 5pm, so I am available before or after then! On Fridays, I work 7:45-1pm. On the weekends, I am available any time! I live in a single family home with a large back yard and I am in walking distance to many parks. I currently live with two other girls and we do not own any pets. Both roommates are animal lovers as well, so we create a very caring environment!

“We had a wonderful visit! Angela and her husband were great with my cats and have made me feel at ease as I was nervous before leaving for a trip! They are fantastic”

Kate T.

About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and have experience working with cats in animal shelters. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all ages, from energetic kittens to senior cats, and can administer medications when needed. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level, and I take the time to earn their trust while maintaining their routine. You can expect attentive care, photo updates, and a calm, reliable presence to help your cat feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

“Rayme was amazing! We needed someone short notice, and even with that, her communication was great, and she made sure to spend time and give some love to all three of our fur babies. We're booking with her for a longer trip and definitely feel great about leaving our babies in her care!”

Edith W.

About: I have 8 years of experience in the veterinary field, including 5 years as a veterinary assistant, with extensive hands-on experience caring specifically for cats of all ages and temperaments. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, eye/ear drops, injections (when prescribed), and closely monitoring for subtle behavior or health changes that cats often hide. What sets me apart is my understanding of feline behavior and stress signals. I’m especially attentive to keeping litter boxes deep-cleaned and odor-free, maintaining consistent routines, and creating a calm environment for shy, senior, or medically complex cats. I treat every cat with patience and respect, letting them set the pace while ensuring they’re safe, clean, and well cared for.

“thank you!”

About: My name is Zack. I have had dogs my entire life. I have owned all different breeds of dogs. From miniature pinscher to pit-bull terriers. I started training my own dogs 20+ years ago. As I have gotten older, it grew with me. I enjoy playing with dogs and training them. I currently have my own dog training business on the side. So while your dog is with me, I will take special care of him/her and your dog will have a lot of fun. I also have 4 dogs of my own that we got from the shelter. Two are lab mixes, 1 is a maltese mix and 1 is an AustralianCattleDog. I also have 2 kids in their teens that help me with training dogs and also help me with dogs I take care of and take for walks. My wife and kids love dogs just as much as I do. Dogs are family in this home, not pets. I'm just glad my kids enjoy it as much as I do because it's a great way to teach my kids while spending quality time with them. My family and I have plenty of time with your pet while they are here for play time, walk time, socializing, lounge time and more. I currently have 4 dogs myself that are dog friendly that ur fur family can play with. I also have crates for dogs if I feel like dogs need a break from eachother. Your pet is treated like family in our home.

About: I’ve grown up on farms with many animals to include dogs and have raised them since I was young. Can’t wait to introduce myself to your fur baby’s and give them the love that they show us every day 😄 I’m currently in between jobs so my hours are flexible for your needs, always up for the exercise for a run or walk with your animals 😁 Currently only have a cat in a studio apartment so no space for a dog. My dog is back home in Ohio with my parents as I have no space here for him right now.

About: I have raised and trained a few dogs from puppy's through the end of life. I promise I will take good care of your dog as if it were my own. I am recently retired so I do have some time to spend with your pet. I could come to your home and let them out and spend some time playing. Before I leave I'll make sure your dog has food and water and pick up any waste. I held my last job for thirty six years and handled quite a lot of money so I am trustworthy. I rarely get sick so I am always available. If need be I could watch your dog at my house and I do have a fenced in yard.

About: I've had a lifelong love of animals — caring for them was a responsibility I embraced from childhood and carried into adulthood. Over the years, I've dedicated time to researching training methods and best practices for working with dogs of varying breeds and temperaments. My hands-on experience includes Great Danes, German Shepherds, Cairn Terriers, Pit Bulls, Yorkies, Goldendoodles, and Labrador Retrievers, giving me a well-rounded foundation for understanding different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I am currently a full-time student, so I have the flexibility to make sure your pets are walked and checked on through the day. I can also be available for overnights in your home or will consider boarding here on a case-by-case basis. I firmly believe that regular exercise is one of the greatest gifts you can give a dog — both for their physical health and their overall disposition. Ensuring every pup gets the activity they need for a calm, content evening is always my top priority. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, attentive, and caring environment.

“Britany is well liked, with my dog Kobe. He really looks forward to his walks. I really appreciate Britany's commitment to showing up on time, and making walks fun.”

About: I've had & taken care of cats & dogs since I was 7 years old! Over the past 5 years I've moved into caring for the pets of other's just as a favor to friends & family. Now I want to leave corporate America & care for furry family members professionally. I'm currently working on making pet sitting my full time job so my availability is completely open for around the clock care whether your pet is an early riser or a night owl! I prefer to care for pets in their own space as I have roommates at this time & our landlord doesn't allow pets on property.

“Expectations were blown away! Pam did an awesome job! Very clean house and friendly environment. Winston ( her dog) came up and greeted and welcomed them in ! She updated us on them! Highly recommend and will be using her again for our future vacations!”

Taylor N.

“Christina was amazing with our 50lb boxer. He is very high energy and when he got home, he was worn out. I would definitely recommend her and hope to use her again as well!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all personalities, ages, and needs. As a proud Pomsky parent myself, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I provide patient, loving, and dependable care while treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pup needs playtime, walks, extra cuddles, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. I’m also comfortable with senior pets and pets who need a little extra patience and reassurance. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility and allows me to be home throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m also a mom of two girls who are both in school (elementary and middle school), so my daytime schedule is fairly consistent. I occasionally work evenings outside of the home, but I plan my schedule around my pet-sitting commitments and make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and routine they need. Since I have a pup of my own I’m already used to keeping a consistent routine and making time for plenty of exercise, play, and cuddles! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a privacy fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I provide a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I give my own pup!

About: I have had dogs my entire life and for years have been dog sitting for friends and family. I do have one small dog in my home who is friendly with other dogs and would enjoy the company of your pup! I work a full time teaching job Monday- Friday but will be home all evening and weekends with your pup! I usually walk my dogs in the morning before work and then again in the evening if weather permits. My dogs have been my children and they are allowed on all furniture and beds. They have a chill place to relax in my home as well as a large backyard! I live right next to a park so they get a regular walk each day. I do not have a fenced in back yard so your dog must be comfortable going out to potty on a leash :)

“Ellen did a great job! Scout and Holly seemed to really enjoy their stay! I would use her again.”

Lisa H.

“Haylie was so wonderful to work with! She sent me updates and pictures throughout my trip and allowed me to extend Seeley's stay with her family on short notice when we had some unexpected issues. This was his second time staying with Haylie, and I am sure it won't be his last!”
