About: Hi there! My name is Sage, and I’m passionate about caring for pets of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience giving pills, shots, and other medications, as well as caring for both senior cats who need a little extra patience and love, and playful kittens and puppies. I’ve also helped with potty training for puppies and understand the unique attention that both young and elderly pets require. At home, I’m the proud owner of two cats who keep me on my toes and remind me every day why I love animals so much. My goal is always to provide the same level of care, comfort, and kindness to your pets as I do my own. I have evenings open to love on your pets! If you have a busy night planned or a late night at work, leave your pet in my hands! I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own home. As a sitter, I provide respectful, reliable care that follows your pet’s normal routine, from feeding and playtime to medications and cuddles. Whether your pet is young, elderly, or needs special attention, I treat them with patience and love—just like my own two cats. I know my way around Mount Pleasant trails and parks when your pet needs to get some energy out!
“Kaleigh was great with my dogs! She took great care of them while we were out of town. Sent me several pictures too which eased my mind about having a new sitter. Will definitely rebook with her in the future. Thanks Kaleigh for everything you did for the girls!”
About: I've been around and have helped care for dogs and cats all shapes and sizes. Each one I've personally owned are a part of the family! I would take care of your fur baby like I'd want mine taken care of. I am a homeschooling mom which means your fur baby will be kept company while in my care. During the school year, on Saturdays, we sometimes will have sporting events to go to, as well as some week nights we will go to extracurricular practices but never gone for long! I currently have Midland's rail trail right in my back yard for nice walks if that's something you would like done. When we move in March we will have a large open park right in our backyard! We have a sweet Goldador at home that loves playmates and also two cats that sleep the day away. My three kids (ages 8 - 13) have been shown from the beginning how to respect and love animals and they will be a wonderful addition to keeping your fur babies feeling loved and cared for!
“Brittany was fantastic!! We were super nervous about leaving our 1.5 year old German Shepherd with a stranger but as soon as we arrive our minds were put at ease. Without a doubt she loves animals and even fosters rescues. Raven had a blast and even made a few new kitty cat friends! We will definitely be back. Thank you Brittany for taking such good care of our family member <3”
“Jennifer and her family provided excellent care for my senior dog, Molly. Molly was loved and well taken care of. Molly wasn't stressed when I picked her up and felt right at home with Jennifer's family. I can't say enough great things! Excellent communicator, received pictures daily, beautiful clean home, nice, kind and welcoming! When needing a sitter, she's always my first go-to. Jennifer is the absolute BEST!”

About: Cats have always felt like my other half. Since I was 5 I have been rescuing and caring for cats of all ages and backgrounds, and just recently rescued a little kitten that was trapped inside a car. I love making them feel comfortable and cared for because they always return that love ten times over! There's no better feeling than knowing that they feel safe around you, and that's something I will forever strive for.
“Andrea was amazingly responsible and patient. She was available on short notice. Took pictures and shared that she took the time to continue our trained behaviors of sitting to receive treats. We will be working with Andrea again. Highly recommended.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in, feed, play with, and care for their cats while away. Although my current cat is the sweetest thing ever, I also have experience handling shy, anxious, and aggressive cats, so I understand the patience and care they need to feel safe and comfortable.
“I'm so glad Lauren was available to take care of my dog while I'm gone because she did every single thing that I asked her to do. She's very responsible for her work. I will contact her again when I have to leave behind my dog again.”
“Lily did a fantastic job with all three of our kitties! She was consistent with cleaning the bowls and the litter box, and kept us updated with photos! Thank you again for taking care of our kitties!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with both cats and dogs and have been caring for pets my whole life. I have a 3-year-old Golden Retriever, so I understand the daily attention, exercise, patience, and love pets need to feel happy and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like family. I know how important it is to trust someone with your animal, and I always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to their regular routine, I’m committed to giving each pet personalized care and attention to keep them happy while their owners are away. I currently work full time during the week, but pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I care for my own dog as well. I’m available before and after work on weekdays, and I have more flexibility and availability on weekends. I’m committed to making sure pets get the attention, care, and companionship they need while their owners are away. I currently live in a household with two dogs, and I’ve lived with both dogs and cats for most of my life. I’m very comfortable caring for pets in any way they need and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of love and attention while their owners are away.
About: I grew up with lots of pets around the house and absolutely love spending time and playing with them. I’d love the opportunity to help out! I also work at mission point so I know my way around if you happen to be staying here. I’m a big walker and nature lover too so it’s a win-win. I’m available on my days off and before noon! It’s such a nice break to get to go on a walk with a dog or sit with them. I’m able to replace food and water, can play games with the dog and go on long walks. I will give them all of my attention and make sure they’re happy!
About: I have loved and cared for many types of animals since childhood, which included my best friends - my kitties! We have some allergies in my family so I have loved my two Beagle babies for almost 10 years now… but once a cat person - always a cat person. I will care for your pets/kitties as if they are my own. My communication and close attention to detail helps me to follow specific instructions, and as I am very particular about my pets - I understand how to ease the worries associated with someone else caring the way you would. Frequent updates and pictures is the way I roll so you won’t have to worry about a thing. Flexibility is everything to me, also being a caretaker to a grandparent, so if you are not sure if I am a good fit… let’s talk about it!
“Brooke was wonderful and caring. She took great care of our cat for over two weeks. Brooke does seem to prefer to visit later in the evenings, which wasn’t a problem once I figured this out. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: I have 4 years experience in a pet store, I have a Veterinary Assistant certification from CMU, and am currently in college to get my Veterinary Technician license.

“This guy is the real deal! He knows what he’s doing. For example, he knows how to introduce dogs to each other and is very observant of dog behavior. I feel very secure with him taking care of my little guy.”
“Kumar was great. He was super communicative and was flexible when we had some unknowns about the schedule of the day. I was confident that Oliver was being taken care of by a good caring person and I had nothing to worry about, especially when Kumar sent along photos of their day. Without a doubt, I recommend Kumar.”

“Christin is amazing! She watches our puppy Newfie everyday and sends lots of pictures throughout the day. She has helped us introduce Newfie to many new experiences, has helped with potty training, and has been working with him at walking on a leash. Newfie loves her and has made friends with the other doggies. We highly recommend her!”
“Erin was wonderful with Zoe. Zoe had a great time playing with some other dogs and enjoying her walks along lovely tree covered sidewalks. I couldn’t have found a better place for Zoe to spend her day”
“Kathy is amazing. Isabel can be timid when she goes to a new place, but she walked into Kathy's like she lived there. Made it much easier to leave my fur baby for daycare.”
About: I'm a stay at home dad, so I take care of our dog and child. We have a 1-year-old Bichon that I have been with every day since we picked her up. I enjoy the company of little dogs 😃. I'm patient and enjoy small dogs. Currently, I am not working, outside of my everyday responsibilities at home. I will be available from 9:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M., and of course I could always be flexible 😃 We are currently working on getting our yard fenced in, and we have a 1-year-old Bichon to keep your small dog company. And of course if there's bad weather we can always play inside 😃
“Blythe was very accommodating. She took us as a fairly last minute booking since we had a funeral and my previous sitter had just moved away. My pickup estimate was off and she was kind enough to keep Grokii an hour or two longer than expected even though it coincided with putting her kids to bed. Her kids are absolutely adorable and I know Grokii was doted on because he slept almost the entire next day. Great family - highly recommend!”

“Stephanie was very kind and helpful in watching my pup while I attended a wedding. As advertised, she has a really great property and her pups are very sweet. Stephanie cares about them a lot and is clearly an animal lover. She was great in sending me some photos of their day and was very pleasant to talk with. Would recommend to others and would certainly return if ever needed in the future!”

As a business owner who manages my own time, I prioritize reliability and responsiveness, ensuring that your pet’s needs are always met with the highest level of care and attention. Commitment to Quality Care in Your Home When caring for your pet in your home, I strive to go above and beyond to ensure both your pet's well-being and your peace of mind. If I notice anything out of place or in need of tidying, I’m happy to help—but always with your prior approval. I understand that personal preferences vary; some clients prefer to handle certain tasks themselves, while others appreciate the extra assistance. My goal is to respect your space and treat your home with the same level of care I would my own. Having spent the last two years renovating my own home, I deeply understand the importance of maintaining a clean and organized environment. Safety and Pet Care Best Practices Your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I take every precaution to ensure their well-being: Secure Transportation: If I transport your pet, they will always be properly restrained with a seatbelt or pet travel carrier for safety. Leash & Walk Safety: On walks, I ensure pets do not pick up items from the ground. I also clean their paws after every outing, just as I do with my own pets. Hygiene & Health: If your pet gets dirty, I will provide a bath with your permission. Any medical concerns will be addressed immediately, and I am trained in emergency pet first aid, excluding surgical procedures. Home Security: I will ensure all doors and windows are securely locked when leaving your home. Privacy & Updates: I will only take photos of your pet for your updates and will never photograph your home without permission. Supervision & Outdoor Time: Pets in my care will never be left alone in a vehicle or outside unattended, even in my fenced yard. Cats will remain indoors unless they are harness-trained and you request outdoor time. Stranger Interaction: While on walks, your pet will not interact with strangers or other animals unless pre-approved for socialization. Pet Care in My Home Pets in my home receive dedicated supervision unless prior arrangements are made: Dogs: If a dog is staying with me and needs to be left alone for an extended period, I require a crate for their safety and comfort. However, my schedule is highly flexible, minimizing the time they are left alone. Cats: Cats may be left unsupervised in a designated, pet-safe room with regular check-ins. Handling Aggressive or Special Needs Pets I have extensive experience with fearful, reactive, and aggressive pets, but clear and honest communication is essential: Cats: I am comfortable handling feral or aggressive cats and will take the necessary time to build trust. I can administer medication as needed, but I require full transparency about their behavior to ensure safety for all. Dogs: I can accommodate dogs with minor behavioral challenges, such as leash reactivity or mild anxiety. However, for safety reasons, I cannot accept: Dogs over 50 lbs who are not at least moderately leash-trained. Dogs requiring a muzzle or choke collar in public settings. Dogs with severe aggression or unpredictable behavior. Double-Booking Policy For the safety and well-being of all pets, I do not double-book boarding, daycare, or walks unless all parties have given consent and a meet-and-greet has taken place. If multiple dogs are staying in my home at the same time, a meet-and-greet is required. Even if the dogs get along, they will not be left alone together unless securely crated. Cats and dogs boarding in my home simultaneously will be kept in separate areas with no contact.
About: I've been raised around all ages of puppies/dogs, use to work at a dog daycare for a few years, took behavior classes, and did nail trimming. Also have done walking at the daycare and also with my own dogs. I have took care of seniors also that have needed medicine I'm a stay at home mom with my baby daughter, 2 dogs Toby and Koda, and my fluffy playful kitten Snooze.

At night I make sure to give each one alone time with me before bed so they don't get jealous of eachother
“Jennifer is friendly, helpful, and did great with my boy. He was very happy and seemed like he made himself right at home.

I also have 10+ years of taking care of my childhood dogs and now the dog I have currently. Currently my schedule is wide open! Just looking for a side job as I continue my college work. My availability is currently open for any day or time! Currently because of my dog at home I do not offer any services at my residence, but I am confident in my knowledge about how to take care of your pet inside your home!
About: I have had many years of caring for all animals including dog and cats. Since 16 I have ran my family pet shop and boarding on my own while my parents went on vacation. I have all the experience and knowledge of a dog boarder right in your own home. I moved from my hometown with my wife to complete college. I have 3 cats that I care for daily their names are : Saki, Bruno, and Nalia. Each dog is different, some dogs like to play fetch and challenge their brain while others just like to lay around and be spoken with. Having many animals growing up and caring for them at the pet store I’ve learned how to understand them.
About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life, from training my own dogs to dog/cat sitting for family and friends, I have more experience with big dog breeds rather than little but I am comfortable in my ability to care for all types of dogs and cats. My family has raised puppies multiple times and I have assisted in caring for and training them. I am currently working at dr pol veterinary services, I work Monday and Fridays:8-6, Tuesday and Thursday I work 8-5, and I occasionally work Saturdays from 8:30-12. I am completely free on Wednesdays and Sundays and I’m free in the evenings on the days I work. Currently I am unable to bring other people’s pets into my home because we have three large dogs that aren’t the best when it comes to other animals, but me and my boyfriend are working on renovating a polebarn into a apartment for me and him and we plan on completly fencing the area in for when we eventually get dogs of our own.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so I’m experienced and comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m a huge dog person who truly loves spending time with them—whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, or just giving them extra attention and affection. As a college student with classes only two days a week, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care during weekdays, weekends, and even last-minute requests. Pet sitting isn’t just a side job for me; it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Every dog I care for is treated like part of my own family, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I’m a college student and only have class two days a week, so I have a lot of free time during the rest of the week. Because of that, I’ve started offering pet-sitting and dog-walking services to make good use of my schedule. My open availability makes it easy to help pet owners who work long hours, travel, or just need someone dependable to check in on their animals. I can handle daily walks, feeding, playtime, and basic care, and I’m available on short notice most weekdays and weekends. Pet sitting has been a great way to earn extra money while spending time with animals, and it fits perfectly with my flexible college routine. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, my goal is to keep them safe, happy, and comfortable while following the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home: I make sure to follow all instructions for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication if needed. I keep the home tidy, give pets plenty of attention, and send regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing. In my home (if applicable): I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with room to play and relax. Dogs get regular walks, exercise, and cuddle time, and I keep their feeding and bathroom schedules consistent with what they’re used to. Because I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, I can spend extra time with pets, giving them the attention and care they need throughout the day instead of just quick check-ins.
“Brittany was prompt and reliable. She did not seem at all turned off by my two dogs’ energy level and ‘enthusiasm’ (including jumping) when she met them. I believe she did a great job exercising them. They seemed relaxed and settled when I returned home. I appreciated how well she kept in contact and the pictures she sent!”

“Ebby loves her stays with Ed! She has the opportunity to play with other dogs and gets so much attention! Ed texted us pics of Ebby while we were gone. It is such a relief to know Ebby is in good hands when we can't have her with us.”
“We really appreciated Kumar agreeing to take on Baxter last minute after our previous plan fell through! He sent photo updates to let us know how our little guy was doing. Drop off and pickup was easy!”
“Erin was fantastic as always. My girl is always so excited to hang out at her house with the other dogs and her boys. She comes home so worn out from having the best time. We really appreciate everything she does to keep our girl safe and happy while we are away. So grateful”
“This was our second time using Mariah & Max and they were once again awesome! Super communicative, pictures sent daily, and our dogs came home tired and smiling! We highly recommend using Mariah & Max.”
About: I've been around and have helped care for dogs and cats all shapes and sizes. Each one I've personally owned are a part of the family! I would take care of your fur baby like I'd want mine taken care of. I am a homeschooling mom which means your fur baby will be kept company while in my care. During the school year, on Saturdays, we sometimes will have sporting events to go to, as well as some week nights we will go to extracurricular practices but never gone for long! I currently have Midland's rail trail right in my back yard for nice walks if that's something you would like done. When we move in March we will have a large open park right in our backyard! We have a sweet Goldador at home that loves playmates and also two cats that sleep the day away. My three kids (ages 8 - 13) have been shown from the beginning how to respect and love animals and they will be a wonderful addition to keeping your fur babies feeling loved and cared for!
“Jennifer and her family provided excellent care for my senior dog, Molly. Molly was loved and well taken care of. Molly wasn't stressed when I picked her up and felt right at home with Jennifer's family. I can't say enough great things! Excellent communicator, received pictures daily, beautiful clean home, nice, kind and welcoming! When needing a sitter, she's always my first go-to. Jennifer is the absolute BEST!”
“Janis and her dogs were a great host for our young dogs first overnight away from us. We met up quickly a couple days before hand so that she was sure Thule would be a good fit at her house . She provided updates and pictures showing the fun he was having. We would definitely recommend boarding with Janis!”
“Stephanie was awesome. She took such good care of my boys. She sent me pics and kept me updated on their daily activities. Stephanie's house was very clean and her yard had designated potty areas. She has her own dog that is a total sweetheart and was very kind to my two dogs. You can tell that Stephanie knows dogs and how to take care of them. I will definitely use her again.”
“Audrey took great care of my Mr. Murphy. She shared pictures and updates throughout his time there and that was very much appreciated. I needed a sitter for 10 days and I am happy that I went with Audrey! Definitely will be keeping her in mind for future needs.”
