“We traveled from Pittsburgh to Marion for a family wedding and needed someone to watch our dog Paddington during the ceremony and reception, and Jennifer was wonderful! We got to meet her adorable Bulldog, Diesel, which was a great bonus. Jennifer's communication was excellent throughout, keeping us updated and sharing photos so we could fully enjoy the celebration without worry. We would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter!”
“Kelsey was amazing! I could tell Milo was safe and happy through all of the wonderful pictures she sent to me daily. He had so much fun I was worried he wouldn't want to come home! It was truly a fun vacation for him too. Also, when I dropped him off he was still having a few accidents in the house every now and then, and since he's been home, not one! Highly recommend, thank you so much!!”
“We appreciated all of the TLC Rita & Brian provided for our precious dog Stella. She had frequent walks and visits to the garden. We loved all of the pictures we received while we were away. It made us feel reassured she was on the right hands.”
About: Although I’ve never been paid to care for an animal, I assure that I’m well aware of how to take care of puppies to elderly dogs. I have two little fur balls of my own, they are brother and sister and I’ve been lucky to have had them since they were puppies. They both are truly bonded and I cannot imagine not having them around. I also have had bunnies that I adored so much. I never used to like reptiles until my boyfriend’s bearded dragon. He is absolutely adorable and I love love love when I come over and I can see him! It brings me joy getting to know all sorts of different pets and how similar they are to people. I do love all pets but a dog has always been my favorite animal out of them all. I love how they’re never like the other and the love they give without wanting anything in return. At any function or family event, if there’s a dog, I’m more than likely going to be around him/her all day lol. I'm always so happy when I see dogs come into my work, they truly make my day. Ever since I can remember, I’ve always wanted a dog to call my own, a dog I could have adventures with, a dog who I could spoil endlessly, a dog to call my best friend and be there every step of the way. I am 24 and am waiting to get a house when I am ready, so for now I’d love to help out you and your fur baby until that time! Since I am currently working part time I thought this was the chance to make some money doing something I love, taking care of dogs! My schedule is not consistent but I normally work 3 days a week. My calendar will always be up to date so you know my availability! If you have any questions, always feel free to ask! Thank you;) When it comes to anyone’s animal, I will always treat them like my own. I will always be paying attention to what they do and how they react in situations so nothing happens. Takings walks, giving meals/medicine, cleaning up after them, making sure they aren’t in any danger, looking after them at all times, and being able to keep them comfortable with me is always going to be my priority.
“Otheus did a great job with my 2 doggos. He kept me updated throughout the day on how they were doing and when we came to pick up the boys the next morning, both of the boys seemed to enjoy being around him. He has a great setup for the dogs, and we plan on using him again in the future.”
“Katelyn and Nicholas were both welcoming and a great host for our 11 month old golden retriever. We were provided frequent updates/pictures which was comforting because this was our first trip without our dog. We will return if we ever need their services again!”
“Rachelle was wonderful with our dogs and very responsive to texts while we were on our trip. She also sent us some photos to show us how our pups were doing. Both dogs were cared for and loved! I also appreciated her arranging a meet and greet prior to our dogs staying with her. Thanks Rachelle for such a positive experience! Caroline”
“Kirsten and Nicolas were great! They sent pics during the whole stay and were very communicative. They also have a fenced in back yard that they let the dogs run around in. They updated us when the pups appetites were low, which I really appreciated. Both of our dogs tend to be anxious without us because they aren’t used to used to being alone, so it was also a big plus that they work from home. In the past we have had to send our pups to kennels because we don’t have friends or family near by who can watch them. They would be locked in a kennel all day and we would literally have to pay extra for belly rubs or time out of the kennel. I usually feel uneasy the whole trip but not this time. I could tell they were well taken care of and treated like one of their own. Thank you so much Kirsten and Nicolas!”
“Rachel and Newt are by far the best people we could have ever stumbled across. Our dog Tank had the best time with them. The photos we received of how comfortable he was took us by surprise and made us smile. We are absolutely going to keep booking with them as long as Tank is with us. Thank you both!”
“Stephanie was amazing! She took wonderful care of Hermes and made us feel very comfortable while we were away. Hermes had a great time playing with her dogs and even got into the pool at her house, and they were completely okay with it. This was our first time traveling without Hermes, and knowing he was happy, safe, and well cared for gave us so much peace of mind. We are very grateful and would definitely recommend Stephanie!”
“Tina was amazing with my dog! She took such good care of her and also helped me with some good tips on things I wanted to train her on. I would definitely recommend Tina for taking care of your fur baby.”
“Fantastic care provided for our shitzu with updates and pictures. We were confident our little guy was in great hands and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”
“Alexandria is wonderful! She took incredible care of Lucky, providing frequent updates and photos that kept my mind at ease. It was clear from the start that Lucky was in great hands and felt right at home throughout the entire stay. I highly recommend Alexandria for anyone needing a reliable and attentive sitter!”
“Amazing once again! Their entire family shows so much love to Frankie. She always comes home better behaved and happy as can be! Loni goes above and beyond and I know Frankie’s in the best hands possible.”
“I booked her for a second time for doggy sitting with my pup and he absolutely lost it seeing her again, I’ve never seen him so excited!! Such a relief to know your pup is happy to go with your sitter, already her booked again for next time ☺️”
“Shorey had a great time staying with Nicole! She was able to play outside a lot with Nicole’s pup and was tuckered out when she got home, which was great! Great communication the entire time.”
“Angellynn was absolutely great! She took wonderful care of my 8-year-old dog and treated her just like she was at home. Ginger loved all the attention she got from them. They played with her and loved her. I will definitely be taking Ginger to stay with Angellynn again. Highly recommend her!”

“Chelsie is our most beloved, dependable, professional and thoughtful cat sitter. We have 8 cats + we foster strays. Cheylsie has cared for our cats several times this year and we highly recommend her. She goes above and beyond to ensure our cats receive the best care.”

“Monica was absolutely wonderful. She was very kind, always responsive, and kept us updated the entire time. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation because we had a great feeling about her from the very beginning. When we came back, the cats were happy — and that’s all we could ever ask for. She also sent us very cute pictures throughout the stay. Thank you so much, Monica!”
“Kelly did a phenomenal job with my two dogs. She was able to help us out during a family emergency. She communicated well and looked after my dogs like if they were her own. Thanks Kelly!”
About: I've been around dogs for 30 years. I've helped rehab different animals and believe in a holistic approach. Our fur babies are special and deserve the best. I have experience working with special needs dogs and love senior dogs. I work full at the YMCA with a flexible schedule and would love to take care of your pets! I am available 7 days a week. I can crate your dog if needed. I will give them walks and potty breaks as needed. I know all animals are different and must be treated with care.
“Amy was so awesome! She took the time to let my cat warm up to her & sent so many pics & videos to let me see him :) will 100% be using her again in the future. Thank you for allowing me to be at ease that he’d be cared for while I was away!! (:”
About: I’ve spent the past eight years caring for cats of all personalities, from shy rescues to playful kittens and seniors needing extra patience and I’ve learned how important it is to understand each cat’s unique routine and comfort level so they feel safe while you’re away. What sets me apart is my attention and genuine care; I don’t just stop in to feed and leave, I spend time making sure your cat feels comfortable, whether that’s through play, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to their normal routine, treating every cat like my own so you can have peace of mind.
About: Hi! I’m Dallas! Your pet’s home away from home. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, reptiles, and even farm animals so caring for pets isn’t something I learned, it’s just how I’ve always lived. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from high energy pups to shy or more sensitive animals who need a slower approach. Now that my daughters are about to be in school full-time, I finally have the flexibility and extra time to focus on pet sitting and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. This also helps fund my love for traveling, so I take this seriously and treat it like a real responsibility, not just a side gig. We’re a pet loving household, and your pet will be treated like part of the family while they’re here. We have two dogs who are very friendly and loving, they’ll definitely want to make friends but full honesty, they can be a little yappy at times. We also have a cat who mostly keeps to herself and doesn’t bother anyone. For safety and quality of care, I only take one family at a time, so your pet will always get my full attention without the stress of a crowded environment. We don’t have a fenced yard, but your pet will still get regular walks, attention, and supervised time to stay active and happy. What you can expect from me: • A safe, structured, and loving home environment • Plenty of attention, interaction, and supervision • Regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing • Respect for your pet’s routine, preferences, and comfort level I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else, so I do everything I can to make that decision easier and to make sure they feel right at home. My schedule is flexible and pet focused. I work part time as a hairstylist three days a week, but I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to make sure they get consistent attention, walks, and interaction. When I’m at the salon, my husband is home and helps maintain your pet’s routine, so they’re never left alone for long periods. Between the two of us, your pet will always have supervision, care, and plenty of attention throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I keep their routine as close to home as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or downtime. Since I only take one family at a time, your pet gets my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment. They’ll have plenty of interaction throughout the day, whether that’s playing, relaxing, or just being near someone whatever they’re used to. We don’t have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs are either leashed or closely monitored to ensure safety. Walks and regular potty breaks are built into the day. I’m very mindful of different personalities and energy levels. My two dogs are friendly and social, but I always make sure introductions are done slowly and safely so everyone is comfortable. Our cat keeps to herself and typically stays out of the way. On days I’m at the salon, my husband is home to help maintain your pet’s routine, so they’re never left alone for long periods. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to keep everything consistent and stress free feeding, walks, medications, and any specific preferences you have. My goal is always the same: to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. also send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
“I really really appreciated the communication and pictures! Brittany was great with being responsive and giving updates. She played and hung out with our kitty and took care of him great. Thank you!”

“We appreciate the communication and flexibility provided esp with a late scramble with another sitter this past couple of weeks. And, most importantly, we were confident our big fur-baby was happy and taken care of with walks and more!”

“Kelsey was very communicative and kept me updated on my puppy's social progress. She arrived very shy and returned the next day with confidence. Thank you, Kelsey, for creating an environment that helped Lila come out of her shell!”
“Fantastic experience! Upper dare care provided on short notice. Our puppy was worn out after a day of play. Very pleased with the care Anna (Xi) provided. Very conscientious, asked all the questions to make sure our puppy’s experience was maximized. Highly recommend!”
“Maria was AMAZING with my dog! She was a literal lifesaver at the last minute and my puppy was tired at the end of his stay! Thank you SO much Maria! I highly recommend her!”

About: What sets me apart is heart-led care—personalized attention, reliable routines, and genuine love that makes every pet feel safe, happy, and at home. Rest assured your pet gets everything they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and individualized attention, ensuring each pet receives consistent care, supervision, and affection throughout the day. I offer a large, fully fenced backyard for plenty of safe roaming, a calm pet-only home with no other free roaming animals or children, and a clean, non-smoking environment.
About: I have had three dogs, myself and personally trained two of them! Our young growing family will give your pup plenty of attention and love! Your pup must be good with kids and animals as we have two young boys who absolutely love animals and a miniature Australian Shepherd, who will play well with any dog! There are also two barn cats on the property who keep to themselves for the most part. I will send update pictures daily, so you can be assured that your pup is doing great. We can’t wait to host your furry friend! I am a stay at home mom so I can be extremely flexible with schedule and be available for your pet most of the time and attend to the needs of your specific pet. I will be sure to feed your pet as often as they are used to at home and with the food you provide. I spend lots of time outside with the kids so you can also be assured that your pet will be given plenty of outside time! I am happy to leave pets inside if they prefer that as well. With our Australian Shepherd exercise will also not be a concern as he is very playful but he also will leave animals alone if they don’t want to play!
About: Growing up on a farm set the stage for providing and caring for all sorts of animals. Many years spent showing horses, lambs, goats, market hogs and all sorts of small animals in 4H. After college I started working with standardbred race horses as a groom. Since then for the past 6 years I have worked with racehorses, broodmares and foals. All the while keeping my loyal canines happy. Since having a sweet baby boy in April, I have quit my full time job. On occasion I still work for my fiancé and his families racehorse stable. I am looking to add some fun and exciting new friends to my daily routine! My family and our two dogs Brandi a 6 year old mountain cur / beagle mix and Iggy a 6 month old mini Aussie/beagle mix live in a quite neighborhood with a recently added privacy that backs up to a woods. Our home is secured by Nest security cameras. Your family members would be welcomed into our home or given their own privacy room or kennel depending on their individual needs. If your 4 legged family member is more comfortable staying at their own home, playing in their own yard and walks in a familiar neighborhood, I also offer that!

I look forward to caring for your furred, feathered, hooved, and scaled family members real soon! :) My life and schedule is centered around my animals. I own a trailer rental company and can alter my schedule however is needed to make sure all animals in my care and on my schedule are well cared for. I care for my clients pets as instructed and love them as if they are my own. Animals rule the world here at the farm and are allowed on all furniture and beds. Roughly an acre is securely chain link fenced and gated for plenty of outdoor exercise, weather permitting.
About: I like to think I’m a dog communicator. I love to take them for walks & I care about them and their time spent with me I work part time, I can easily take care of your pet on the days I don’t work. I get up early and retire early with plenty of energy in between! I have a smaller fenced back yard with land to leash and walk longer distances. I have 2 smaller size poodles, one older, that hunt around every time we go out
About: I've been training and caring for dogs professionally for over 15 years. I enjoy caring for dogs and enriching their lives through exercise and training. If your dog needs a walk while you're at work, or you need vacation care for your pets, I'm here for you and your pets. I have trained and titled dogs in Obedience, Rally, Agility and Tricks. I am also a Certified Assistance dog trainer. Along with walks and drop-ins, I also offer day training services that we can discuss at our initial meet and greet, if you're interested in me training with your dog during the day as part of, or instead of, a walk. Walking and training is my full-time job. I'm available weekdays, and some weekends. I'd love to care for your dog while you're at work or away. Exercise, play and train with dogs during the day while their humans are away. Reinforcing good behavior is my specialty. I love training walks and fun training sessions to keep dogs mentally and physically stimulated. If you'd like, I can incorporate training into any of my visits for an additional fee. Reach out for more information. I utilize the dogs food and toys to positively reinforce good behaviors that we'd like to see more of. I work on the basics and fun tricks and skills, not behavior problems or aggression.
About: Hi, I’m Amanda. I’m the owner of Unleashed Peaks, a full-time dog training and behavior coaching business built on calm communication, structure, and trust. Along with training, I also offer structured boarding and daycare in a peaceful, home-style environment where dogs can relax, play, and learn safely. Because I’m a trainer first, everything I do — from playgroups to potty breaks — is intentional. Dogs get enrichment, exercise, and clear routines that build confidence while keeping things fun and low-stress. I follow LIMA (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) principles to make sure every dog feels safe, understood, and respected. I love working with all types of dogs, especially those who need a little extra support or structure while you’re away. Whether your pup is here for the day or a full board and train, they’ll be treated like family. Quirks, goofiness, and all. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy, relaxed, and well-adjusted dog who’s had a fulfilling stay and maybe learned a few new skills along the way. I’m home full-time and spend most of my day working with dogs through my business, Unleashed Peaks. Because training and structured care are what I do every day, your dog is never left unattended for long and always part of a calm, consistent routine. Drop-offs and pick-ups are flexible - mornings and early afternoons usually work best, but I’m happy to coordinate around your schedule. Whether your pup is here for daycare or boarding, they’ll get a balance of play, enrichment, rest, and individualized attention throughout the day. Dogs in my care stay in a calm, structured, and enrichment-based environment that helps them feel secure and relaxed. My home is designed with safety in mind, with separate rest areas, and consistent supervision. We have 5 acres of land. Our fence is in progress right now but we have never had an issue! As a full-time trainer, I understand canine body language and group dynamics deeply. I make sure each dog’s play, rest, and social time match their comfort level. New dogs are introduced slowly and respectfully so they can settle in at their own pace. I keep routines predictable and communication clear so dogs always know what to expect. Whether they are here for a day or an extended stay, every dog is treated like family: safe, understood, and cared for.
“Josie and Jimmy are wonderfully loving and caring. They have a lovely, pet friendly home, and we did not have to worry about our dog. They kept us updated with photos. We will definitely use them again!”

About: I an 3 year veterinary nurse with 2 years experienced in pet sitting . I will treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that animals need more than just food and walks—they need love, attention, and a calm, reassuring presence while you’re away. With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, I tailor my care to fit each pet’s personality and routine.

I pay close attention to their physical and emotional needs, ensuring they’re fed a proper diet, have clean water, and live in a safe, comfortable environment. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat who are literally my children. I currently don’t have a fenced in yard due to no need for one because my pets are really well and staying on my property. So when it comes to pet sitting in my home , depending on how trained the animals are I am some times able to have them roam free with my pets along with supervision or I tend to leash walk if that’s way doesn’t work out . I prioritize myself on keeping my pets safe and other people’s pets safe as well.

I have more availability during seasonal breaks from school! I have a fenced yard and do my best to ensure a safe and fun environment in my home for dogs. When in others’ homes I am sure to take precautions to ensure your animals safely and comfort.
About: Even at a young age, I have seven years of skillful experience in multi-species care ranging from shelter medicine, to low-cost spay & neuter services, to currently mixed animal practice. The last five years, I have been expanding my skill set as an employed veterinary assistant. With that, I am knowledgeable when it comes to medications, pets with special conditions and needs, and capable of handling emergencies. I’m currently working full-time as a veterinary assistant at my local mixed animal practice. With that being said, I am available only in the evenings on the weekdays that I work. However, I am usually available all day on Tuesday’s, Sunday’s, and most Saturday’s. I have one dog and one cat of my own who are both wonderfully inviting and playful with other pets. I offer both crated and uncrated time for my dog, and also your pet upon request. However, both my pets usually have full access to the house at all times.
About: Although I’ve never been paid to care for an animal, I assure that I’m well aware of how to take care of puppies to elderly dogs. I have two little fur balls of my own, they are brother and sister and I’ve been lucky to have had them since they were puppies. They both are truly bonded and I cannot imagine not having them around. I also have had bunnies that I adored so much. I never used to like reptiles until my boyfriend’s bearded dragon. He is absolutely adorable and I love love love when I come over and I can see him! It brings me joy getting to know all sorts of different pets and how similar they are to people. I do love all pets but a dog has always been my favorite animal out of them all. I love how they’re never like the other and the love they give without wanting anything in return. At any function or family event, if there’s a dog, I’m more than likely going to be around him/her all day lol. I'm always so happy when I see dogs come into my work, they truly make my day. Ever since I can remember, I’ve always wanted a dog to call my own, a dog I could have adventures with, a dog who I could spoil endlessly, a dog to call my best friend and be there every step of the way. I am 24 and am waiting to get a house when I am ready, so for now I’d love to help out you and your fur baby until that time! Since I am currently working part time I thought this was the chance to make some money doing something I love, taking care of dogs! My schedule is not consistent but I normally work 3 days a week. My calendar will always be up to date so you know my availability! If you have any questions, always feel free to ask! Thank you;) When it comes to anyone’s animal, I will always treat them like my own. I will always be paying attention to what they do and how they react in situations so nothing happens. Takings walks, giving meals/medicine, cleaning up after them, making sure they aren’t in any danger, looking after them at all times, and being able to keep them comfortable with me is always going to be my priority.
About: I’ve spent the past eight years caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments from energetic puppies to large, strong dogs and older pets needing a gentler pace and I’m completely comfortable adapting to each one’s needs. Over time, I’ve learned how important consistency, patience, and understanding behavior are, whether that means handling high-energy walks, reinforcing routines, or helping a nervous dog feel at ease. What sets me apart is that I don’t just walk or check in and leave—I take the time to build trust, give them attention, and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every dog like my own, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. Pet care and pet sitting fit seamlessly into my schedule, allowing me to be flexible and dependable for both regular visits and last-minute needs. With more availability during the current season and upcoming summer, I’m able to offer consistent care, longer visits, and more time for walks, play, and attention. This flexibility benefits clients by ensuring their pets maintain a stable routine, get extra exercise, and receive reliable, attentive care while they’re away, especially during busy travel months. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pets. I always prioritize safety, follow your instructions closely, and keep you updated with messages and photos so you know your pet is happy and doing well. I’m respectful of your space, dependable, and treat your home and pets with the same care I give my own. When pet sitting, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep things stress-free. This typically includes feeding on schedule, fresh water, walks or litter box care, playtime or companionship, and any medications if needed. I also do quick check-ins around the home (like making sure everything is secure) and send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to keep everything as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away.
About: Hi! I’m Dallas! Your pet’s home away from home. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, reptiles, and even farm animals so caring for pets isn’t something I learned, it’s just how I’ve always lived. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from high energy pups to shy or more sensitive animals who need a slower approach. Now that my daughters are about to be in school full-time, I finally have the flexibility and extra time to focus on pet sitting and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. This also helps fund my love for traveling, so I take this seriously and treat it like a real responsibility, not just a side gig. We’re a pet loving household, and your pet will be treated like part of the family while they’re here. We have two dogs who are very friendly and loving, they’ll definitely want to make friends but full honesty, they can be a little yappy at times. We also have a cat who mostly keeps to herself and doesn’t bother anyone. For safety and quality of care, I only take one family at a time, so your pet will always get my full attention without the stress of a crowded environment. We don’t have a fenced yard, but your pet will still get regular walks, attention, and supervised time to stay active and happy. What you can expect from me: • A safe, structured, and loving home environment • Plenty of attention, interaction, and supervision • Regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing • Respect for your pet’s routine, preferences, and comfort level I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else, so I do everything I can to make that decision easier and to make sure they feel right at home. My schedule is flexible and pet focused. I work part time as a hairstylist three days a week, but I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to make sure they get consistent attention, walks, and interaction. When I’m at the salon, my husband is home and helps maintain your pet’s routine, so they’re never left alone for long periods. Between the two of us, your pet will always have supervision, care, and plenty of attention throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I keep their routine as close to home as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or downtime. Since I only take one family at a time, your pet gets my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment. They’ll have plenty of interaction throughout the day, whether that’s playing, relaxing, or just being near someone whatever they’re used to. We don’t have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs are either leashed or closely monitored to ensure safety. Walks and regular potty breaks are built into the day. I’m very mindful of different personalities and energy levels. My two dogs are friendly and social, but I always make sure introductions are done slowly and safely so everyone is comfortable. Our cat keeps to herself and typically stays out of the way. On days I’m at the salon, my husband is home to help maintain your pet’s routine, so they’re never left alone for long periods. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to keep everything consistent and stress free feeding, walks, medications, and any specific preferences you have. My goal is always the same: to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. also send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Stephanie really came through for us in super short notice. I have two pit bull type breeds and I booked her the night before we left with no way for her to be introduced. She came over and was really good at introducing herself and was not intimidated at all. Because of that my Pooh got two walks a day while we were gone on vacation. Thanks Stephanie!”

About: I personally have a German Shepard and a Chiweenie at home so I have experience with both big and small dogs. I usually take care of my parents dachshunds when needed.

I have grown up with dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and even spiders. Your fur baby will be in the best of the care! During our visits they will be spoiled just as mine are and will enjoy our time together by playing or cuddling. I am available for drop in visits or dog walks in the afternoon. However, if i feel the temperature is too hot, I will not walk your baby for the safety of them. I will respect your home just as I would want mine to be in my absence.

About: I have always had dogs in my life and I am ready to meet and take care of yours! I have had 3 Saint Bernards and 3 Basset Hounds so I know how to handle size and sass. I've been working in kennels and doggy daycares since I was 16, so I have 5 years of animal care experience that I can bring to the table. This includes administering meds (syringe feeding, injection, and oral), walking pets, soothing stressed animals, playtime, on and off-leash experience. cleaning up after pets, and maintaining their environment. A little bit of poop won't scare me! I am currently looking for a job so my hours are completely open at the moment, but that may change. I will make sure to keep in contact with any of my pet owners about any changes in my schedule. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex, but I would prefer to look after pets in their home environment. I drive a large car so I can transport animals anywhere you should ask me to. I currently do not have a pet of my very own so your pets will be my priority!

About: I’ve been taking care of my 15 year old dog since she was 8 weeks old! She now needs a lot more potty breaks than before, requires medication occasionally and waits for me to give her massages after waking up because her arthritis is worse in the morning! As you can see she needs extra catering to since she has gotten older. She is spoiled and cuddly and I love every second of it! I’m a social worker who does “home visits” for children during the day. My job is community based therefore it gives me more flexibility with my daily schedule. I think mental health is important therefore I believe in daily walks for myself!

“We traveled from Pittsburgh to Marion for a family wedding and needed someone to watch our dog Paddington during the ceremony and reception, and Jennifer was wonderful! We got to meet her adorable Bulldog, Diesel, which was a great bonus. Jennifer's communication was excellent throughout, keeping us updated and sharing photos so we could fully enjoy the celebration without worry. We would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter!”
“Kelsey was amazing! I could tell Milo was safe and happy through all of the wonderful pictures she sent to me daily. He had so much fun I was worried he wouldn't want to come home! It was truly a fun vacation for him too. Also, when I dropped him off he was still having a few accidents in the house every now and then, and since he's been home, not one! Highly recommend, thank you so much!!”
“Otheus did a great job with my 2 doggos. He kept me updated throughout the day on how they were doing and when we came to pick up the boys the next morning, both of the boys seemed to enjoy being around him. He has a great setup for the dogs, and we plan on using him again in the future.”
“Katelyn and Nicholas were both welcoming and a great host for our 11 month old golden retriever. We were provided frequent updates/pictures which was comforting because this was our first trip without our dog. We will return if we ever need their services again!”
“Rachelle was wonderful with our dogs and very responsive to texts while we were on our trip. She also sent us some photos to show us how our pups were doing. Both dogs were cared for and loved! I also appreciated her arranging a meet and greet prior to our dogs staying with her. Thanks Rachelle for such a positive experience! Caroline”
“Rachel and Newt are by far the best people we could have ever stumbled across. Our dog Tank had the best time with them. The photos we received of how comfortable he was took us by surprise and made us smile. We are absolutely going to keep booking with them as long as Tank is with us. Thank you both!”
“Stephanie was amazing! She took wonderful care of Hermes and made us feel very comfortable while we were away. Hermes had a great time playing with her dogs and even got into the pool at her house, and they were completely okay with it. This was our first time traveling without Hermes, and knowing he was happy, safe, and well cared for gave us so much peace of mind. We are very grateful and would definitely recommend Stephanie!”
“Alexandria is wonderful! She took incredible care of Lucky, providing frequent updates and photos that kept my mind at ease. It was clear from the start that Lucky was in great hands and felt right at home throughout the entire stay. I highly recommend Alexandria for anyone needing a reliable and attentive sitter!”
“Amazing once again! Their entire family shows so much love to Frankie. She always comes home better behaved and happy as can be! Loni goes above and beyond and I know Frankie’s in the best hands possible.”
“I booked her for a second time for doggy sitting with my pup and he absolutely lost it seeing her again, I’ve never seen him so excited!! Such a relief to know your pup is happy to go with your sitter, already her booked again for next time ☺️”
“Shorey had a great time staying with Nicole! She was able to play outside a lot with Nicole’s pup and was tuckered out when she got home, which was great! Great communication the entire time.”
“Angellynn was absolutely great! She took wonderful care of my 8-year-old dog and treated her just like she was at home. Ginger loved all the attention she got from them. They played with her and loved her. I will definitely be taking Ginger to stay with Angellynn again. Highly recommend her!”
“I cannot speak highly enough of our experience with Amanda. She watched our 2 dogs this week, 2 separate times that we needed to travel overnight. You can tell she genuinely adores every dog she cares for and she is so great about sending updates and pictures. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for peace of mind when they have to be away from their fur babies.”
“Kristin was so nice and accommodating! It made traveling so much easier knowing that my pup was in good hands. She sent regular text updates and was flexible with pick up and drop off times. She even left a note in my dog's food container! I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”
“Gracie was great! We set up a Meet & Greet and hunts went well. Got pictures every day with updates and our Jackie was happy and tired by the end of his stay. Thank you!! ?”

So when it comes to pet sitting in my home , depending on how trained the animals are I am some times able to have them roam free with my pets along with supervision or I tend to leash walk if that’s way doesn’t work out . I prioritize myself on keeping my pets safe and other people’s pets safe as well.
