“Dawn did such a great job with Cozy. Our Meet and Greet in her adorable "dog house" put me at ease right away. Dawn has a warm and inviting personality. She kept us apprised with photos and comments all weekend long. We will definitely be using her for future needs. I highly recommend Dawn!”


“I couldn't have asked for better care than what Richelle provided. She was very understanding about Teddy's separation anxiety and all that came with it. Definitely will rebook with Richelle!”

“We used Rover for the first time through Avery and everything went very well! We were happy that our puppy had her little ones to play with. Avery was quick to respond and Lyla came home smelling great. We will be using her again!”

“Hazbleydy I. & her husband were great! My dog can be very anxious and is usually not fond of new people but she had a great time at their house. Hazbleydy kept me updated with pictures the entire time, and even went out to get supplies for my dog that had ran out of during the stay. I would highly recommend her!”

About: With over 15 years of hands on experience fostering more than 80 dogs, I've cared for puppies, seniors, medical cases, and dogs needing extra patience, confidence building, and socialization. Every dog is an individual, and I enjoy getting to know their unique personality and routine. I actively train (and occasionally compete) in agility, herding, trick training, scent and others with my dogs as well as helping introduce others to CPE Agility as an instructor at Clermont County Dog Training Club. This experience has given me a strong understanding of canine body language, safe introductions, and enrichment. I provide a calm, home based boarding experience with plenty of individual attention. I'm comfortable administering most medications, happy to follow your dog's routine, and require a meet-and-greet before every first stay. To ensure personalized care, I accept a maximum of two guest dogs (40 lbs or less) at a time. I work from home, so your dog will have company and supervision throughout the day. Guest dogs are rarely left alone for more than a couple of hours, and if I do need to step out, all dogs are safely crated for everyone's security. Outside breaks are offered every 2–3 hours (or more often if needed), with plenty of opportunities for sniffing, play, and relaxation. Most days include two walks, enrichment activities, and, when weather permits, a longer hike or adventure around the adjoining 150-acre property using secure long lines. Dogs who enjoy the water may also have the opportunity to splash in the pond or explore the creek with owner approval. Every dog's activity level is adjusted based on their age, fitness, personality, and your preferences. Your dog's safety and comfort always come first. Every new guest is required to complete a meet-and-greet before booking so we can make sure everyone is a good fit. Because my own dogs share the home, I look for guests who are dog-friendly or dog-tolerant. New dogs are introduced gradually, and crate-free time with my dogs only happens after I've assessed everyone's comfort and temperament. Dogs are continuously supervised while together, and I carefully manage interactions to keep the environment calm and positive. My home features approximately half an acre of securely fenced outdoor space, along with access to 150 acres for on-leash adventures. Guest dogs are never off leash outside the fenced yard; long lines are always used when exploring. Dogs are welcome on the furniture unless you prefer otherwise, and I'll happily follow your household routines and care instructions to help your dog feel at home. Please note this is a hobby farm with chickens and sheep on the premise. They will be secured away from the guest dogs.
About: Reliable dog care from a boarding kennel worker with hands-on experience in daily care, routines, and behavior. Beginning AKC training soon. With some veterinary experience as well. I have a flexible schedule as a full-time student, so I can stop by before or after classes for walks, feeding, medications, bathroom breaks, and other care needs. I’m happy to help with weekend visits and can do overnight stays when possible. I’m comfortable traveling up to about 25 miles for pet care. I treat every pet like part of my family, giving plenty of attention, love, and consistency. Inside my home, I maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, following each pet’s routine for meals, bathroom breaks, play, and rest. I’m attentive to behavior, health, and individual needs, and I make sure pets feel secure, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. My reliability, patience, and flexibility help me provide personalized care that puts both pets and owners at ease.
“April was a great puppy sitter. I have a 4 month old miniature poodle. HOLLY. Holly fell in love with April. I can tell Holly was very well cared for. I will be using her again. Highly recommend. I loved she sent Pics daily.”

About: I've had a lot of different breeds around me growing up and, I love every kind! I've helped family and neighbors growing up. I used to help shelter animals as a volunteer because I have big heart for all animals. Im not currently working right now. So I'm picking this up as a weekly job with full open availability, except for Friday,Saturday and Sunday. I hope to have a pawsome time with your puppy! I don't have a fenced in yard but I have enough yard for any dog. I will be able to accept more than one family's dog at a time but, only up to 3 and only if the others pet is pet friendly.

About: I bring extensive professional experience in animal care and behavior, including years in shelter leadership and hands-on behavior work with fearful, anxious, and reactive animals. My background includes behavior assessment, stress reduction, enrichment planning, and individualized care for dogs who struggle with transitions, confinement, or unfamiliar people. I am especially comfortable working with dogs who need structure, patience, and clear communication rather than force or correction. I prioritize low stress handling, predictable routines, and meeting dogs where they are emotionally, not just physically. My goal is always to keep animals safe, supported, and understood while their people are away. I maintain a flexible, well-managed schedule that allows me to accommodate a wide range of client needs, including weekdays, weekends, and varying visit times, with appropriate advance notice. I care for pets by balancing structure with relationship-building. I focus on creating predictable routines, clear communication, and calm expectations while also prioritizing rapport, confidence, and emotional safety. I pay close attention to body language and stress signals and adjust care in real time to meet each pet where they are emotionally. Rather than forcing compliance, I help animals work through fear, overstimulation, or uncertainty at a pace they can handle. Whether in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to create a low-stress environment where pets feel safe, understood, and supported, which allows genuine progress and trust to develop. My pets at home enjoy structure along with play and lots of quiet time. My dog, Albany, enjoys finding hidden treats in a fenced backyard. My three cats, Duchess, Wanda, and Addie, enjoy plenty of naps, wand toy play time, and many hours of cuddling and watching tv.

About: As your pet's second best friend, I offer tailored care, genuine love, and a paw-sitively unforgettable experience! I am well educated in dog training, ensuring they’re mentally and physically stimulated, to overall pet health. I take care of my dog to the fullest extent, your dog will be treated all the same as a new member of the pack! To ensure safety and health, we don’t play right after eating to avoid bloat, I am very conscious of heat on their paws when walking on different surfaces, I avoid rawhide treats and go with homemade or very natural treats instead, and those are just scratching the surface of do’s and don’ts!

Nonetheless, I always do slow introductions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. If needed, I can crate or provide separate spaces for rest and decompression. Inside my home, I maintain a clean, structured environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. I closely monitor interactions, follow feeding instructions carefully, and stick to your dog’s routine as closely as possible so they maintain some sense of routine while being away from home.
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. From fun-filled walks and playtime to administering medications and providing attentive senior care, I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique needs. I’m also skilled in basic training and maintaining a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. My passion for keeping dogs happy and healthy ensures they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. Daily Routine: 1. Morning Care: • Start the day with a morning potty break for Tootsie, followed by her breakfast. Puppies often have high energy in the morning, so I set aside 15-20 minutes for a walk or playtime to help her burn off energy. • This ensures she’s settled while I begin my workday. 2. Midday Break: • Working from home allows me to schedule a midday potty break and a short walk. This keeps Tootsie active and gives me a mental break from work. 3. Afternoon Engagement: • I incorporate short play sessions between tasks to provide Toots with mental stimulation, whether it’s a game of fetch, tug, or a puzzle toy. • These breaks are timed to coincide with natural pauses in my workflow, helping me stay refreshed and productive. 4. Evening Care: • I dedicate time for a longer walk or play session to meet her exercise needs. • Dinner and another potty break follow, ensuring she’s relaxed for the evening. 5. Winding Down: • We end the day with cuddle time and one last potty break before bed, maintaining her routine and comfort. Weekly Routine: • Training Sessions: I include short, 5-10 minute training sessions daily to reinforce good behaviors and teach new commands. • Socialization: On weekends, I take my dog to a park or pet-friendly area to expose her to new environments, people, and other dogs. • Grooming and Maintenance: Weekly brushing keeps her long coat healthy, and I check her nails and ears regularly to prevent any issues. • House Cleaning: I allocate time to clean her bedding, toys, and the areas where she spends time to maintain hygiene. Working from home makes it easier to integrate these tasks naturally into my day. It ensures Tootsie’s needs are met while allowing me to balance work responsibilities effectively. When caring for pets in either my own home or a client's home, I prioritize safety by ensuring a secure environment, following their specific care instructions diligently, closely monitoring their behavior, and always keeping their well-being at the forefront, including providing proper food, water, exercise, and access to designated bathroom areas, while fostering a trusting relationship through consistent routines and gentle interactions. Key aspects of pet care, depending on the service offered: Basic Needs: Feeding: Providing the correct amount of their prescribed food at scheduled times, ensuring fresh water is always available. Waste Management: Regularly cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs outside for bathroom breaks, and proper disposal of waste. Exercise: Engaging in appropriate physical activity based on the pet's breed and needs, such as walks, playtime, or interactive toys. Safety Measures: Secure Environment: Checking for potential hazards like open doors, toxic substances, and securing areas that could be dangerous for the pet. Leash Supervision: Always using a leash when walking dogs outdoors in public areas. Medication Administration: Following strict instructions for administering any prescribed medications. Trust Building: Positive Reinforcement: Using positive training techniques and rewards to build a positive relationship. Gentle Handling: Respecting the pet's boundaries and comfort level, avoiding forceful actions. Communication: Maintaining open communication with the client regarding any concerns or changes in the pet's behavior.
