We came all the way from Baltimore to visit friends in the area, and had to board Willow. It was Willow's first time spending the night away from us since we got her 4 months ago. Tracy was super kind and loving toward our anxious 7YO doggie. She sent photos and was watchful enough to notice some behaviors of Willow's that seemed to possibly indicate a health problem (it resolved itself). We felt Willow was getting the best possible care next to our own. We will definitely use Tracy again next time we come to visit Athens County! Thanks Tracy!

Adrian provided fantastic care for our dogs. We received regular updates and he reached out for information he needed to make their stay worry free. Our dogs were well cared for and we joked that they seemed to love being with Adrian and his family so much that they may not want to come back home! 😆 We would definitely use Adrian again and will recommend him to anyone looking for boarding/walks/drop in services.

I know how scary it can be to leave your beloved pet with someone, but let me just say they will be in great hands with Schuyler!! She is professional, and cares deeply for dogs - as well as has a lot of knowledge about them and what different breeds need . I appreciated her prompt responses and communication with me , providing me all the updates I wanted while our dog Burrow stayed with her ! Would not hesitate to use her again in the future!

About: I love animals and to take care of them. I hope to provide your pets with a caring, safe, cuddling place to come. I’ve had animals since I was very little and have always loved them, I plan to be a vet tech when I can. I also have two dogs a chihuahua and an American bulldog that are both neutered. They are both very friendly as well and most of the time the chihuahua minds his own business. (By the way they are both male dogs). My whole family loves animals and would love for your to come stay or visit and even walks would be great. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room for dogs to run in and much more. I work part time so I have time to take care of your pups! If I’m not home my boyfriend is, we have two pups that go everywhere with us I have a fenced in yard and I go on daily walks with my two pups that can help keep yours company. I have neighbors that are are very friendly and there dog had puppies!

About: I've cared for my family's Shih Ztu ever since I was 8 years old. Throughout his 13 years of life, I've also cared for my brother's Yorkie, Lab, and Golden Retriever on multiple occasions!! Now, I have my own 6 month old puppy named Zeke💕 I'm currently a full-time college student doing this as a side job. Dogs bring me an unbelievable amount of joy and are a great way to relieve some stress from school!! If I'm ever needed inside of your home, I will treat it as though it is my own. I am very responsible and understand how to clean up after myself and your doggy!

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.

Rio Grande, OH, 45674

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.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong cat lover with years of experience caring for feline friends of all kinds — from shy seniors to energetic kittens. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship, I understand that each cat has a unique personality and routine.

I’m familiar with multi-cat households and understand the importance of a calm, respectful presence when building trust with cats. As a responsible pet sitter, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication. I’ll send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your cat is in good hands. Let me help keep your cat comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you’re away!

I can't say enough good things about Stefania! She went above and beyond to make sure my cat Boo Boo was happy and well-cared for while I was away. I received updates with photos and videos, which put my mind at ease. She even managed to win over my cat, despite his tendency to not like strangers. What really impressed me was that she stayed longer than scheduled on drop ins. It's clear she genuinely cares about animals and their well-being. I highly recommend this cat sitter to anyone looking for top-notch care for their beloved pets!

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 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: I grew up with pets and have never lived without them. I pet sat when I was younger and have since done it occasionally for friends and family. I just moved to the Athens area and am looking for some supplemental work. I am available for house sitting as well. I take work seriously and am very hard working and detailed oriented. I live in Athens from the end of October through the start of May. I am available throughout the week and weekends. I am not a student here anymore so classes and partying do not take up any of my time. I have 2 indoor cats and a bearded dragon. One of our cats requires some special attention with medicine and over grooming monitoring. Whatever needs your pets have I will work hard to meet them! As far as house sitting goes I am also readily available. If your house needs anything fixed or done I have a number of skills to help you out! I do renovations and all kinds of work on the house I am living in so as part of the house sitting deal I can make something like that work.

Arlo got along great with Padmé and sent pictures and small notes daily. At the end of her 4 day stay with Arlo, I picked up Padmé and all of her stuff and then I found a card with a sweet message about their time together, as well as a photo of Padmé she had taken! I highly recommend Arlo and will likely use her again to watch my cat.

Ness is a great drop-in cat care person! One of my cats adored her—she was his food source after all! The other cat, who is quite neurotic and hides when anyone comes in the house, usually goes on an hunger strike when I’m gone but actually ate his food and even meowed for her one time. Ness’ quiet energy made everyone happy.

Perfect fit! After adopting a dog who has some reactivity, I was worried I wouldn’t find someone to watch her and the rest of our crew (4 cats, a rabbit, and chickens) when we went on vacation. Julie put me at ease from the moment I met her and assured me she and Sasha would become friends. She did a long visit before I left and was there when we left. She let Sasha come to her and they quickly became friends. I am so thankful we found Julie. I will 100% use her again and I recommend her to anyone looking for a good sitter.

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.

I live in a very safe, and pet friendly neighborhood, there is a dog park I can take your pet to. I have a 4 year old dog who is a GSP mix who loves any pup he can play with!

About: I have had dogs as pets all my life and have taken care of them too. I also currently have a German Sheppard puppy of my own. Pet care fit into my daily routine because I care for one of my own everyday and enjoy spending quality time with my pup as much as I can! How I care for pets in my home or others is by giving them love and attention. I enjoy playing with them, taking them on walks and teaching them new tricks

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 have taken care of pets (dogs and cats) since I was around 12 years old. This would include walking, playing, housesitting, giving medications, etc. For a week or more. I am trained by a local Athens animal shelter to deal with dogs with behavioral issues, and currently volunteer at the Delaware country animal shelter and getting trained to deal with medical emergencies. I have grown up with large dogs my whole life and very experienced at dealing with their size. I am currently working part - time and taking online classes, this gives me a lot of free time to care for your pets! I also like to walk daily and will always make time to take your pets on walks! Preferably, before caring for the dog in the clients home, I can meet or talk with the owners beforehand to grasp a strong understanding of their expectations and differences between each household. Trust and communication are very important to me and I intend to care for your pets to the best of my abilities.

About: I grew up with pets and have never lived without them. I pet sat when I was younger and have since done it occasionally for friends and family. I just moved to the Athens area and am looking for some supplemental work. I am available for house sitting as well. I take work seriously and am very hard working and detailed oriented. I live in Athens from the end of October through the start of May. I am available throughout the week and weekends. I am not a student here anymore so classes and partying do not take up any of my time. I have 2 indoor cats and a bearded dragon. One of our cats requires some special attention with medicine and over grooming monitoring. Whatever needs your pets have I will work hard to meet them! As far as house sitting goes I am also readily available. If your house needs anything fixed or done I have a number of skills to help you out! I do renovations and all kinds of work on the house I am living in so as part of the house sitting deal I can make something like that work.

We came all the way from Baltimore to visit friends in the area, and had to board Willow. It was Willow's first time spending the night away from us since we got her 4 months ago. Tracy was super kind and loving toward our anxious 7YO doggie. She sent photos and was watchful enough to notice some behaviors of Willow's that seemed to possibly indicate a health problem (it resolved itself). We felt Willow was getting the best possible care next to our own. We will definitely use Tracy again next time we come to visit Athens County! Thanks Tracy!

Adrian provided fantastic care for our dogs. We received regular updates and he reached out for information he needed to make their stay worry free. Our dogs were well cared for and we joked that they seemed to love being with Adrian and his family so much that they may not want to come back home! 😆 We would definitely use Adrian again and will recommend him to anyone looking for boarding/walks/drop in services.

I’ve had animals since I was very little and have always loved them, I plan to be a vet tech when I can. I also have two dogs a chihuahua and an American bulldog that are both neutered. They are both very friendly as well and most of the time the chihuahua minds his own business. (By the way they are both male dogs). My whole family loves animals and would love for your to come stay or visit and even walks would be great. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room for dogs to run in and much more. I work part time so I have time to take care of your pups! If I’m not home my boyfriend is, we have two pups that go everywhere with us I have a fenced in yard and I go on daily walks with my two pups that can help keep yours company. I have neighbors that are are very friendly and there dog had puppies!

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 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.
