About: By day I’m a work-from-home U.S. government employee, and in my free time I manage my 10 acre homestead. I have a wealth of animal care experience on the farm: housing 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 alpacas, 4 peacocks, 5 goats, and too many chickens to count. With that cast of characters I’ve learned a lot about animal care, and have the vet on speed dial just in case lol. I have a fenced in play area which can accommodate even larger breeds and some friendly dogs of my own to keep everyone entertained (and exercised). I’m also adept at administering medications (if necessary) and will consider accommodating special needs pets on a case-by-case basis. Most importantly, I absolutely love dogs and can’t wait to hang out with yours.
“Deana was so sweet and you can tell she really loves dogs!! We got feedback and pictures every day with updates regarding how he slept, how he ate and how many walks they did.

About: I am a dog mom of one. Barley and I recently lost our beloved Husky whose was 13.5. Barley is a Golden doodle who is 5. I have medical background with two legs🧍♀️🧍♂️ but will take care of your four-legged fur babes 🐾🐾 like my own. I am teachable with any skill I may have to do for you while you are away. Let me know how I can help!! I can also bring the doodle for play dates if you wish. I am currently full-time working during the day but available after 430 in the evenings and weekends. Will consider boarding but will depending on schedule- welcome to reach out and ask questions. I have a fenced in yard, one friendly dogs for playing and able to crate your fur child if need be, otherwise free roaming in my home. I am located in town Logan.
About: I have spent my whole life working with and loving animals, from dogs and cats to livestock and small pets, like fish and rodents. Seniors, youngsters, stinkers and sweethearts alike all have held places in my heart at one point or another, and the opportunity to be their “human” is my greatest joy in life. <3 I do work-trade at a goat farm near Sunday Creek and work retail part-time locally. I spend most of my time with pets or livestock! I am always excited to meet new dogs and cats, and would love to get to know them! When sitting in your home, I am sure to remember every little detail from meet-n-greets so that I can provide the ideal care your baby needs. I am open to and probably at the least a little bit experienced with your pets quirky must-haves, such as crating, food rituals, needing high or low energy, etc. I am always happy to spend time outdoors with dogs, and cats as well if they are harnessed and comfortable! I’ve never met a fur baby I haven’t instantly fallen in love with!!
About: I grew up very passionate about animals, and it didn’t help that we had 4+ dogs, cat(s), a rabbit, goldfish, and more. It was always viewed that I would pursue a career as a veterinarian because I care for common house pets, insects, and wildlife. It’s humorous to think of how obsessed I was with Steve Irwin. However, I followed a law enforcement and military-associated career, hoping to open my rescue one day. Animals are easier in packs, so nothing will ever be too much. I am a dedicated professional with a full-time job, earning my second master's degree, if not third, and more; if it’s one thing, I will always go out of my way for any creature. I will be able to help take care of your furry animal before and after work. Depending on your location and if it’s everything but boarding, I may be able to provide weekend care. Therefore, it is crucial that your animals can be left alone for 8-13 hours. I am able to provide medication if applicable but will need your pets preferred way of receiving their medicine. I own a 2 story home with a fence in yard. There are security cameras around the premises. If there are signs that your animal can not be trusted, they will be placed in a kennel while I am at work for their safety and my own dogs/cat safety. My boyfriend works within the county that we reside in and will be able to quickly go back to the house if a situation arises. All of my animals have been trained to be socialsble with other people and pets.

“We were really happy with the care provided for our cats Rory and Luna while we were away for 5 days. We received regular updates, including two lovely videos, which really reassured us and showed how well they were being looked after. It was clear they were comfortable, well cared for, and given plenty of attention. We came home to two very content cats and wouldn’t hesitate to book Stefania again.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with both dogs and cats. My family has had dogs of all sizes, including three pit bulls and a mastiff so I’m very comfortable with larger breeds as well as smaller pets. Our family dogs and cats have ranged from young puppies to seniors, which has given me experience adjusting to different energy levels, routines, and care needs throughout a dog’s life. I’ve also cared for our pets on my own for week-long periods when family members were away, making sure they were happy, safe, and well cared for. More recently, I adopted my own cat named Muffin, who I’ve had for the past seven months. Being a pet owner myself has made me appreciate how important it is to find someone you trust, and I would care for your pets with the same attention and care I give my own. I work part-time in the evenings, which gives me a flexible schedule during the day. Most days I’m available after 11:00 AM for drop-in visits, walks, feedings, or spending quality time with your pets. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they get the care and attention they need while you’re away. I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Every animal is different, so I take the time to get to know their personality and routine rather than treating every visit the same. I’ll make sure they get the care, attention, and consistency they’re used to, while also treating your home with respect and keeping you updated so you never have to wonder how things are going.
“Jacob took care of our three cats for our week-long vacation, providing daily medication to two of them. He was punctual for his visits and provided updates on how they were. I appreciate his reliability and taking good care of everyone while we were away.”
“Laura is amazing with our doggie! She gives her lots of love while we are out of town, and treats her as if she was her own dog. We will definitely keep scheduling with her. You will like her with your doggies too!”
About: I have experience caring for multiple households’ cats, including shy, senior, and high-energy cats. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, special diets, oral medications, litter maintenance, enrichment play, and sending regular updates with photos for peace of mind.
“mackenzie was an amazing sitter for my cat! my kitty is notoriously shy and aggressive around people but by the end of our trip mackenzie was cookie’s new friend! very diligent with photos and updates. highly recommend!”
“Amanda did a fantastic job keeping me updated and caring for my pet cat. My cat required multiple drop-in visits per day, and had some complicated instructions, but Amanda handled it perfectly. I was updated with photos and messages with how time was spent with my pet, and would reccomend Amanda too any pet parent going out of town for an extended amount of time.”
About: I always grew up having cats and growing up lived in a home with eight cats. I learned a lot over the years about how to best love and respect cats. I volunteered at OAR (Ohio Alleycat Resource) while taking a gap year in Cincinnati and learned how to take care of a variety of cats with different personalities and health concerns. I pet sit for friends of mine often and love to learn about the history of cats as pets as well as the psychology of cats to best care for them. I will volunteer again this summer at shelters and intend to get a senior cat before I move back to college.
“Hailey did a great job taking care of our cats and loving on them while we were out of town! She also did a good job giving my elderly cat her insulin injections. Would recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
About: I have taken care of many different pets for as long as I can remember! My love for caring for animals started when I was 12 years old and taking care of my own five ferrets. It wasn't long after that when both of my parents had started bragging about my consistency and dedication when it came to taking care of pets to my family and their friends. From that point on I have gotten calls from my aunts, uncles, and family friends to care for their furry friends while away on vacations and business trips. This has made me confident enough to want to help other families take care of their animals when needed too! :) I currently go to college at Ohio University and would only be available to work on my school breaks starting every August-May. However, my schedule over the summer is pretty open and I would love to spend as much time needed with your fur babies! With any instructions given I am sure to not skip one step! I will give your pet all the attention and cuddles necessary. Due to me having a dog who doesn't get along with new dogs, I would care for your pet(s) in the comfort of their own home. I am also willing to stay overnight if needed when I am available to do so.

About: Hi! I’m a local woman with years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I approach every animal with deep love, respect, & a strong sense of responsibility—safety and comfort are always my priorities. I’m currently studying psychology through online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and an attentive, thoughtful approach to pet care. One of my favorite things to do is get outside, so if your dog loves adventure, I’d be happy to take them on trail runs or hikes with me! I always approach each pet with gentleness, patience, and respect. Whether it’s a trail run with an energetic pup or a quiet visit with a shy cat, I tailor my care to meet their needs. I’m currently taking online psychology classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and a thoughtful, attentive approach to pet care. Safety, trust, and love are at the heart of everything I do. When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize their safety and comfort above all. I create a calm, secure environment that’s free from hazards (no loose cords, toxic plants, or access to unsafe areas). I make sure each pet has their own space to decompress, especially for cats or anxious dogs. I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, medication, and rest, and I keep in close communication with you throughout their stay—updates, photos, anything that gives you peace of mind. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I make sure doors, gates, and windows are always secure. I also do slow, supervised introductions if there are other animals in the home (or none at all if your pet needs solo time). My goal is to make every pet feel safe, seen, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi! Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From high-energy puppies to slow-paced seniors, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities — each one with their own quirks and needs. Whether your pup needs daily walks, playtime in the yard, belly rubs, medication, or a consistent routine while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. I’m confident, calm, and attentive — and I always treat pets like they’re my own. I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog behind, so I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, an overnight stay, or a week of care, I’m here to keep tails wagging and hearts happy. Let’s make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and at home — even when you’re not. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to your pets — whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Because I’m not tied to a full-time job, I’m able to adjust my availability based on each pet’s needs. I make sure to build my day around their routines, so they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for — just like they would with you. Whether it’s one-on-one playtime, regular feeding schedules, or keeping up with medications, I take the time to make sure everything runs smoothly. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment that feels familiar and comforting. In your home: I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding and walk times to their favorite spots to nap. I keep everything clean, secure, and consistent, so your pet feels relaxed while you’re away. I’m happy to water plants, bring in mail, and keep you updated with regular photos and messages. In my home: I offer a pet-safe, cozy space where your dog (or cat, depending on needs) will get one-on-one attention and feel like part of the family. I maintain a clean environment with plenty of play, rest, and cuddle time. If your pet has special needs or routines, I’m happy to accommodate them — from crate training to medication schedules. No matter where the care happens, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, affection, and full attention to their emotional and physical well-being.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs/cats of every kind ever since I was about 8 years old. I also grew up on a farm near cows/horses/chickens. I have a very big heart for animals and it is very rewarding to me working with animals and gaining their trust and their owners trust! I’m currently doing freelance work on the side, so I have a lot of availability! I can do every day as long as I have a notice! I have a cat and a dog. They are both on schedules to eat. For my dog, I take her out 3 times a day and give her crate time about 5 hours a day.

About: By day I’m a work-from-home U.S. government employee, and in my free time I manage my 10 acre homestead. I have a wealth of animal care experience on the farm: housing 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 alpacas, 4 peacocks, 5 goats, and too many chickens to count. With that cast of characters I’ve learned a lot about animal care, and have the vet on speed dial just in case lol. I have a fenced in play area which can accommodate even larger breeds and some friendly dogs of my own to keep everyone entertained (and exercised). I’m also adept at administering medications (if necessary) and will consider accommodating special needs pets on a case-by-case basis. Most importantly, I absolutely love dogs and can’t wait to hang out with yours.

About: I love our 3 dogs we have, I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. They are our family. I have watched our dogs and our neighbors when they were on vacation. I am currently not working and looking to do this full time. I have an open availability. Day or night will definitely work for me. We have a fenced in back yard for our 3 dogs. Have 5 acres with a pond. Lots a room to walk the dogs and play. Daily routines take my dogs out in yard and have play time. Ball throwing, when weather is warm it's pond day for our little hope.

About: I grew up very passionate about animals, and it didn’t help that we had 4+ dogs, cat(s), a rabbit, goldfish, and more. It was always viewed that I would pursue a career as a veterinarian because I care for common house pets, insects, and wildlife. It’s humorous to think of how obsessed I was with Steve Irwin. However, I followed a law enforcement and military-associated career, hoping to open my rescue one day. Animals are easier in packs, so nothing will ever be too much. I am a dedicated professional with a full-time job, earning my second master's degree, if not third, and more; if it’s one thing, I will always go out of my way for any creature. I will be able to help take care of your furry animal before and after work. Depending on your location and if it’s everything but boarding, I may be able to provide weekend care. Therefore, it is crucial that your animals can be left alone for 8-13 hours. I am able to provide medication if applicable but will need your pets preferred way of receiving their medicine. I own a 2 story home with a fence in yard. There are security cameras around the premises. If there are signs that your animal can not be trusted, they will be placed in a kennel while I am at work for their safety and my own dogs/cat safety. My boyfriend works within the county that we reside in and will be able to quickly go back to the house if a situation arises. All of my animals have been trained to be socialsble with other people and pets.
