Personalized care for your dog or cat - Avery
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Avery
“Diane is so easy & reliable (& available) to work with. Our doggy just loves going to her house & playing with her dogs! Diane is very sweet. Plus, I love that she lets us know how Opie’s doing while we’re gone & sends us pictures!”
“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”
“Suzanne watched our dog for about 4 days and he really enjoyed his time there and playing with her dogs and in the backyard. She sent us a picture everyday so we could see what he's up too. We'd definitely use her again when we're in the area again.”
“Lexi was wonderful. She really seemed to enjoy my dog, a boxer. She sent me a lot of pics suggesting he was having a fine time at his sleep over. I immediately felt at ease with leaving him there. I’ll use her again if she is available. When we got him his stools were normal (they aren’t when he is stressed) and he hadn’t lost weight (does when he is stressed). He was fine.”
“We were so pleased. The whole process was very easy and we found a great sitter for our Bentley with Sherry. She sent pictures and updates so we knew all was well. Thanks, Sherry!”
“We found Cynthia and Tim because their location was convenient for our activities around Ohio's Lake Erie islands, but we also found their home to be a great place for our pups to hang out. The pups got lake side walks in their safe and charming community. (We are considering making their Lakeside community a destination for ourselves.) We are grateful for Cynthia and Tim's flexibility in scheduling as well. We will definitely call them next time we're in the area!”
“Ralph was amazing, he accommodated our girls and treated them as if they were his own. He ensured that they were the only clients he had during their stay to make sure they were comfortable. He sent so many photos and made sure that we knew that were well cared for during their first stay with him. There was no doubt. Our large breed is shy and after our first meet and greet, she warmed up to Ralph so easily and she does that with no one. He has a way with animals that makes them feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Ralph but I would like to be able to book him in the future 😉”
“Jennifer is very knowledgeable about dog behavior and I felt comfortable leaving our Georgie, knowing he would be well cared for. He was excited to go stay and happy when we picked him up.”
“Julie was wonderful with our little Morkie. She treated our little girl like her own. Her dog is very friendly and they got along well. Highly recommend Julie as a dog sitter. Will definitely use her for future bookings and happy we found someone that could trust and likes our quirky little dog.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Avery
“Marisa is a wonderful caregiver for our Aubie. Great communication, very much in tune with what’s important to us and Aubie. Appreciated the updates and photos while Aubie was in her care.”
“Katelyn and Andria were amazing with our corgi puppy, Millie! She had a great time and even made a new pup friend while she was there. When we picked her up, she was happy and totally exhausted, which is always a good sign! We really appreciated the care and attention they gave her. Highly recommend!”
“Kayla was absolutely amazing! From the meet and greet, to the very first time my baby was away from his family, to the pick up after the exciting first day! She welcomed him not only into her home, but into her family! I’m so incredibly grateful!!!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Avery
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was in middle school. I love all animals, whether they are super playful or super cuddly. While I have a soft spot for larger dogs having a German Shepherd & a Husky, I also enjoy the playful energy of small dogs & cats :) I have a full time job, I mostly work until about 4pm and am willing to dedicate the rest of my day to hanging out with your pets! My job is also very flexible and I am willing to adjust my schedule for longer stays (more than a week). I’m open to crate trained and free roaming pets. I do prefer to use a leash when going on walks to ensure the safety of your pet.
About: As to getting my first pet ever at the age of 21 to my rescue pit mix and to now owning 5 animals, 2 dogs and 3 cats, I’m an animal lover. I’ve helped family and friends with pet sitting their fur babies while they’re on vacation even if it’s for a weekend or a week. I am available any day during the weekday and also available on weekends for any stays or drop in visits if needed for any reason. I have a partially fenced in yard so I do go out with the dogs on leashes. I can also crate your dog if needed.

About: Hi, I’m Kris! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have two years of professional experience working in a busy doggy daycare, where I was responsible for safely supervising and caring for up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play, administer medications, maintain proper cleaning and disinfection protocols, and provide a safe, low-stress environment for every dog in my care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, including puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and pets with behavioral challenges or special medical needs. I’ve also fostered dogs in my home, which has given me additional experience helping nervous or transitioning pets feel safe and comfortable. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a patient companion, medication, or simply lots of love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is simple: to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! et care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around consistency and animal care. I have experience managing multiple pets at once, so I’m used to building my schedule around feeding times, litter box maintenance, play sessions, and check-ins. I’m typically available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits and maintain a steady routine for each pet I care for. I’m comfortable incorporating visits into my day-to-day activities, and I plan my time so pets always get full attention without feeling rushed. Because I’ve worked in structured animal care settings and have fostered pets in my home, staying on top of routines like feeding, cleaning, medication, and companionship is second nature to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I naturally organize my day around I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care visit. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. I’m careful with home entry and follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules. I keep doors secured during visits, monitor pets closely during interactions, and make sure their environment stays clean, comfortable, and safe at all times. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me. I approach each animal with patience and respect, especially shy, senior, or anxious pets, and I always move at their comfort level. My goal is to create a safe, consistent experience so pets feel secure while you’re away and you feel

“Kelsey took great care of my 2 dogs this week! (1 pitbull &1 frenchie) it was 5 nights , they played with them and kept them fed and happy the whole time and updated me randomly and also responded quickly if I had any questions about my babies!! She does have children which has previously been an anxiety point for my pit bull.. the kids were so friendly and patient and he played well with them all weekend! Overall really happy with the turnout and that he was able to play with children in a controlled environment! Will definitely use her if we go out of town again!🩷”
“After we had a meet and greet Lelo was excited to come back and stay for the week. Bridget and her family made Lelo feel at home and loved. Bridget has a large room, where the dogs are free to play. Plenty of water and toys. Lelo can't wait to come back and hang out with her boys.”
