“I’ve left my pup with Kristi twice now, and I feel very comfortable trusting Kristi with my fur baby. She is quick to respond to messages, and she was very flexible when I had flight delays that effected my boarding times. Very happy with the service!!”
“Leaving our fur baby with someone new was hard, but Paige put us at ease at our first meet and greet. Jax seemed to have a blast and was completly wore out when we picked him up after his stay with Paige. I will leave Jax with Paige again, without a doubt. Thanks Paige!”
“Christine and her husband were very nice and took amazing care of olli!! They watched him over our wedding weekend and brought him on the day of to let him be in pictures!! we couldn’t have asked for anyone better!! They sent pictures everyday and kept us updated.”
“Ashlee is AMAZING! She took such great care of my fur babies. One of my dogs is quite timid, but she warmed up to Ashlee immediately! She also was so understanding that one of my dogs still has accidents from time to time. She wasn’t fazed at all by that. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my fur babies were safe and taken care of! Will definitely be using Ashlee again! Absolutely the perfect dog sitter!”
“Lydia is absolutely amazing! Her home is clean, welcoming and was ready to board our dog overnight. We really appreciate her and our dog returned home happy! We will be using Lydia from now on.”
“Michelle is an amazing and caring dog sitter. She worked with me as my dates changed which helped me a great deal. She's also well knowledgeable about dog's behavior. I will hire her again for my dog, Josie.”
“Thank for sending so many pictures and keeping us updated! Bucky obviously loves being there and feels comfortable! I still can’t believe he was willing to share his dog bed with your dogs! I love that! I’m glad we have somewhere to take him where he feels that safe!”
“She really helped me out and she let me extend extra days on short notice and she just didn't absolute great job with Carhartt I am will definitely have her as my number one go to for babysitters”
“I highly recommend Jessica! It was obvious she is a ‘dog whisperer’, gentle soul, who will make your dog feel like they are at home! She sent daily photos, videos, updates, gave my dog her monthly & quarterly medication, provided her a comfy crate to sleep in, and a kiddy pool filled with strawberries! And there’s 3 dog friends to bond with! My fur baby had a loving spa experience! Book with Jessica!”
“Kristen did an excellent job, and I highly recommend her. I was a little hesitant at first because of the pricing, but once I realized what was included, it made complete sense. Her setup is on a large piece of land that has clearly been customized specifically for pets. There are multiple fenced-in areas where dogs can safely run freely, and it gave me a lot of peace knowing my dog had space, structure, and proper care. Her communication could not have been better. Every time I texted her, she responded within minutes and fully addressed whatever concern I had. I also noticed a real difference in my dog after coming home. Before the stay, my dog would just come up to me and act excited when she needed to go outside. Now she actually cries to be let out, which is much easier to understand. She also seems to pull a lot less when I take her outside, so it honestly feels like some obedience training happened during the stay too. The kennel is climate controlled, the property is very well set up, and Kristen clearly cares about the dogs she watches. She even gave my dog special treats like pup cups with peanut butter and whipped cream. I was honestly worried my dog might not want to come home. If you want to leave your dog somewhere and not have to worry the whole time, this is the place.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my strong experience working with dogs and puppies of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, starting with pets belonging to family and friends, which helped me build a solid foundation of hands-on experience with dogs in everyday home environments. I’m especially comfortable with puppies and understand the patience and consistency they need while learning routines like potty training, crate training, leash walking, and basic commands. I also enjoy helping reinforce positive behaviors through structure, repetition, and lots of encouragement. For adult dogs, I adapt easily to their personality—whether they are high-energy and need plenty of exercise or more relaxed and prefer a calm routine. I also have experience with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, and extra attention to comfort and mobility. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, and behavioral cues, so they feel secure and understood while in my care. My goal is always to create a safe, trusting environment where dogs feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially with my availability in the afternoons and evenings. Since I work part time, I have ample time during the day to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I enjoy spending my evenings going on walks, which would make it easy and consistent for me to provide daily exercise and outdoor time. I also look forward to using my free time for play, feeding, and bonding activities that help build trust and comfort with pets. In my home or a client’s home, I provide pet care with consistency, attentiveness, and respect for the animal’s routine and comfort level. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medication instructions if needed, and any specific preferences the owner provides. I make sure pets always have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean, safe environment. I prioritize daily exercise and enrichment through walks, playtime, and interaction suited to the pet’s age, energy level, and personality. I also focus on building trust through calm, patient handling and positive attention. In a client’s home, I am mindful of maintaining the space exactly as instructed, keeping things clean and secure, and making sure the pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand the importance of routine, so I do my best to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for the pet while their owner is away. Overall, my approach is to care for each pet as if they were my own—providing reliable, loving, and responsible care tailored to their individual needs
“Alexis was amazing with our girls. She kept us updated on how they were doing, sent photos and even groomed them. She also gave them homemade treats. They loved her too. We look forward to using her services again.”
“Aubrey has watched my pup twice now and has given him the love, attention and care he deserves. It is rare to find people who care for your pet like you do and Aubrey really takes the time to care for my pup, Jax.”

About: Hi! My name is Katie, and I work full-time as a veterinary assistant. Caring for animals is both my career and my passion. Through my experience in veterinary medicine, I am comfortable working with pets of all ages, including seniors, puppies and kittens, and pets with special needs. I have experience administering medications, monitoring for signs of illness, and helping anxious or nervous pets feel comfortable and safe. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, playtime and exercise, medication administration, or extra patience and attention while you’re away, I’m committed to providing reliable, compassionate care and keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit.
“Taylor was so great! She came right at the times requested which I really appreciated as he is a puppy and I don’t like to leave him crated for long. I loved the picture updates and knew he was in great hands! I love that she played with him too. 🙂 That was a long day for Ruger but was calm and happy when everyone got home. We will definitely have Taylor back again!”
“A very personable young lady with lots of knowledge and experience. Provided excellent care for my little “crooner”, giving me the peace of mind I needed for a week on the road. Will definitely use Miss Kaitlin again.”
“Hillary was always so accommodating and flexible with our schedule. Our dog has lots of fear and anxiety and she did great with him. We felt at ease during our trip knowing he was being well taken care of.”

I will come to your home to care for your pet(s), which will allow them to remain in the comfort, safety and security of their familiar environment.
“Maura accepted our last-minute request to provide drop-in care for our cats and bird when an unexpected trip came up. We trusted her from our first meeting with her and she did a great job! She communicated with us and sent photos from every visit. We will definitely reach out to her when we need to travel again!”
“You can count on Brooklyn to give your precious fur babies TLC. Our two adult male cats took to Brooklyn instantly. She truly is a kind and gentle animal lover who you can trust in your home while you’re away. We had total peace of mind while we were out-of-town knowing Brooklyn was our sitter. Highly recommended.”
“Lillian is super friendly and kind, and Stuart loves her which is so important! She's definitely a great animal person and it's such a huge relief to have somebody so nice to check in on the little guy while we're out of town. I'm sure he appreciated her visit as much as we did! She's very communicative and sent us a bunch of pictures as well. Will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”
“Ashlyn was great! I booked her for a first time booking for 3x check ins. Both of my cats, even my shy boy who doesn’t typically like new people, came out to see her. She sent lots of photos and communication was great. Would book her again if she’s available next time I travel!”
“Connie did an excellent job caring for our 3 heathens (Flokie, Milly, & LoLo). She gave our old man, Flokie, all his medications as needed and she successfully made it through the distributions of all three's 'special dinner toppings' as I asked her to. She communicated very well and I highly recommend her. Thank you so much, Connie!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 4 when I got my first dog. I currently have two cats and would love a dog but my schedule won't provide me enough time to take proper care of one. I am great with training puppies and giving medications. I’m currently a Preschool Intervention Specialist and have my own special education preschool classroom through Lima City Schools. I currently teach August-May. My availability mainly opens up during the summer but love to help out during the school year around my teaching contract. I look forward to working with you! I am currently off for the summer so I can attend to pet care as much or as little as you need. During the school year as long as your schedule works around my teaching contract, I will be able to help you out as much as I can! I have plenty of experience with small, medium, and big dogs. I would prefer to come to you but in the need to have your pet at my house, I am able to crate dogs as needed at my home as my house has an extra room. Plus my cats are very friendly or just stay to themselves so your animals will be in great care.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. My family and friends relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets when they needed it. I work part time. I try to let animals outside every 2-3 hours and make sure they get lots of loving and lots of play time. I follow whatever rules that you need if your dog needs to be crated before I ever leave then it will be or if you want it running around I will do that. I also know cpr on humans and animals.
About: I love all animals. I have more than four years of pet-sitting experience. I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. I have experience working with therapy and service animals. I absolutely love pets and am always up for new experiences. I work as a nurse three days a week. I am free during most days and weekends. I work night shift, so I can dog sit overnight on nights I work if your pup is crate trained. On days that I am off, I am free at all hours. I currently have two pups at home that are both very friendly and playful. They are crate-trained, so if your dog does not like other animals, I can keep them separated. i have plenty of indoor and outdoor space for the pups to play and hang out in.
“Carla was friendly and dependable. Since I had an unexpected need for a dog sitter, we had our meet and greet only the day before she was to come. I felt confident she would do the job, and she came through! I hope to use her services in the future.”

“Hillary was an absolutely fantastic dog sitter. From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely cares about animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. Hillary went above and beyond to make sure all routines were followed and that our dog received plenty of attention and love. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog sitter.”

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I love animals and have pet sat for friends and family in their home so as not to stress out their animals. I am happy to either pet sit at your home or take care of your pet at mine. Either way, they will get excellent care. I work from home so I have the ability to work from anywhere as long as there is Wi-Fi. My work schedule is also fairly flexible if need be. I have a fenced in yard and a loving pup who would welcome a playmate. I also can sit in your home as I work from home.
About: I have had a dog since I was born! I have been around dog breeds from bassets to Belgian Malinois. I has cared for all kinds of animals from fish to horses! I have helped my mom who was a humane agent so medication administration is not an issue and I won’t charge extra for it! I currently only have a part time job with minimal hours so I have a very open availability. I hope to be able to give your pets all the love and attention I can! I am willing to walk your pups or your cat. I can administer medication as needed as well. I can house sit and will clean your house as well if needed.
About: Hi there, my name is Kristen and I have a slight dog obsession. November 2025 started year five of me owning and operating a pet care company that is listed as an LLC in Ohio, and I have loved every single second of it! While on a walk your dog will be my sole focus. I will be sure to select a different route (if possible) during each walk to help them get familiar with their area, but to also help stimulate their brain with the different scents. If you have multiple dogs that need to be walked separately, for any reason, I will rotate my routes so that each dog is exploring a different area instead of where their fur sibling just was. I am happy to go as fast paced, or as leisurely as Fido wants to take our time together. My typical drop-in (play date) visit consists of the following: enter and greet your beloved furkid who will be totally excited to see me (hello treats!- only if it's okay with you first), and then take them outside to potty. While outside I am happy to play fetch, or any other activity they're interested in. Once we come back in I check the water/food situation, and am happy to take care of any medical needs that may be required at this time from giving pills to injections. There's time for a snuggle, or a game, and then it's one last potty break before I head out for the morning or afternoon. I send detailed Rover cards after every visit, and will include as many photos as possible. For boarding and daycare we are located on 30 acres in Tipp City, with 6 private fully fenced dog parks to choose from. We have 10 kennels, and pups are kenneled during enrichment and overnight with an on-site team member who stays with them. Disney Channel + YouTube classical music plays while pups rest in their kennels between private park playtime and playgroup. You can find out more information by looking at Blockheads and Bows Pet Services LLC online! Dog walking/pet sitting is my passion and full time career. Even while having a steady schedule I have the flexibility that allows me to get to your VIP quickly while maintaining a high level of quality care for all of the animals I care for. From how your pets eat their meals, to sleeping arrangements I try to keep things as normal as possible for them. During my time with your pet they have my undivided attention.

About: I’ve loved and taken care of animals for as long as I remember! My parents used to call me the animal whisperer and I used to take care of all the neighborhood animals while their families were away growing up. I am constantly around animals and taking care of them. I’m comfortable around any sort of pet and i’m willing to learn how to best take care of your animal! I love walks, hikes, or taking a trip to a dog park of some sort!

About: I used to work as a dog trainer for a few years and have worked with all breeds of dogs, and all ages! I’ve grown up with cats and dogs - love them to bits! I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats - reading their body language, playing with them, walking them (no matter the size), and I will always give them space if needed. I wouldn’t ever force a pet out of its comfort zone because that can cause “an aggressive” scenario or permanently scare a pet. I love to play tug and fetch with dogs. My dog (recently passed( absolutely loved to play frisbee and we go to the park and run off so much energy! I can’t wait to make so many fur friends! I recently worked at a veterinary hospital in Fort Wayne, Indiana and just moved to Troy, OH to hopefully start up at a vet here.

I’m huge on making the pet parent comfortable & the pet comfortable.
“Kayla and her husband were so welcoming and careful with our puppies! You can tell right away Kayla genuinely cares for making our puppies feel at home with her and her family. Murray and Rio surely had a great time at Kayla’s home. I’m beyond grateful for having found someone to care for our puppies when we’re away. Thank you so much for having our puppies at your home, Kayla! And thanks for taking care of them as if they were your own. It means the world to me!”
About: For three years I walked two leash pulling cocker spaniels. I turned to watching Cesar Milan for tips, soon I had the dogs walking next to me with the leash loose in my hand. Their owner knew when I’d come to walk them, because they would be barking then quit, due to my entrance with no eye contact. As Cesar says dogs sense with their nose, eyes and ears consecutively. The owner made a comment once “oh, Ruthie must be here”. I’m currently working full time. I would be available after 4 pm Monday - Friday. I travel out of town every other weekend for family. It would work better if I could come to your place. I live in a small condo. That way your pet is kept in it’s familiar surroundings.
“This was our first experience with Rover and Aubrey made it an excellent one! I’m not sure who was more nervous about this dog sitting adventure- Farley or me! Aubrey sent pictures throughout the visit to keep us informed on Farley’s day and really helped us relax on our time away. Thanks for taking care of our fur baby Aubrey!!”

About: Started working with dogs when I was in my early twenties. I stated out as a dog bather and pet care at Petsmart. I then started spending my free time at Sunrise Sanctuary taking care of their rescued livestock. The job that taught me so much was being a dog warden. I learned how to handle emergency calls but also took care of the dogs at the shelter. I work a fun and open schedule so I have more flexibility on dog or cat sitting time frame. My dogs wake me up bright and early at 5am and going to bed around 10pm. So I’m able to check in on dogs within that big time frame. I have a 6 foot wooden privacy fence that I will allow my dogs to go outside in for potty breaks to the dogs playing in the puppy pool. Dogs will not unattended while in the yard.

Caring for animals is my passions and therefore my full time job. I work a little online from home as well but never when it is taking time away from pet care. Away from home care: In my home I usually have other animals so, if you need care outside your home your pet must be potty trained, vaccinated and good with cats and dogs. We have leads for dogs outside and a large yard. No kennels provided, if you’d like your dog in a kennel, call a boarding facility. Your animal would be staying in a clean and safe bedroom/bathroom area with 24/7 supervision as well as a comfortable bed that is changed after every pet’s stay. They will be taken outside for at least 30 minutes, 4 times a day. You will need to provide food for your pet. In Home Care: If providing in home care for your pet all services are provided from walking and playtime to feeding and training. I also give bathes and brushing. Lots of love is of course always a part of my services as well. The schedule of it is up to you! I can do drop in visits any day of the week but only house sit on the weekend (Fri-Sun). I like to make sure I have plenty of time to spend with my own animals while also serving you. *Care In My Home* If you provide a crate and want me to use it I will but I usually just have your pet hang out with me around the house - it is all pet proof as I have many cats and a dog. If your pet doesn’t like other animals they are welcome to stay in my bedroom as a safe haven. I will be sure to hang out with them lots throughout the day if they are in there. I have a large fenced in backyard and leads for dogs. They are always supervised while outside. I only serve one pet family at a time so your animals won’t be exposed to any other animals other than my own. I do not provide care in my home to cats. *Care In Your Home* I will be with your pet for at least 2 hours at a time twice a day in addition to the evening and morning (10pm-10am) full time. I can bathe, brush, train, walk, and give lots of love at no extra charge!

About: I'm a Veterinarian Assistant with a local veterinarian in Greenville, OH at Green Lawn Animal Clinic.

Working in the field that I work in, I understand that situations come up and we need help making sure our pets get all the care and attention that they deserve.

“I’ve left my pup with Kristi twice now, and I feel very comfortable trusting Kristi with my fur baby. She is quick to respond to messages, and she was very flexible when I had flight delays that effected my boarding times. Very happy with the service!!”
“Leaving our fur baby with someone new was hard, but Paige put us at ease at our first meet and greet. Jax seemed to have a blast and was completly wore out when we picked him up after his stay with Paige. I will leave Jax with Paige again, without a doubt. Thanks Paige!”
“Christine and her husband were very nice and took amazing care of olli!! They watched him over our wedding weekend and brought him on the day of to let him be in pictures!! we couldn’t have asked for anyone better!! They sent pictures everyday and kept us updated.”
“Ashlee is AMAZING! She took such great care of my fur babies. One of my dogs is quite timid, but she warmed up to Ashlee immediately! She also was so understanding that one of my dogs still has accidents from time to time. She wasn’t fazed at all by that. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my fur babies were safe and taken care of! Will definitely be using Ashlee again! Absolutely the perfect dog sitter!”
“Lydia is absolutely amazing! Her home is clean, welcoming and was ready to board our dog overnight. We really appreciate her and our dog returned home happy! We will be using Lydia from now on.”
“Michelle is an amazing and caring dog sitter. She worked with me as my dates changed which helped me a great deal. She's also well knowledgeable about dog's behavior. I will hire her again for my dog, Josie.”
“Thank for sending so many pictures and keeping us updated! Bucky obviously loves being there and feels comfortable! I still can’t believe he was willing to share his dog bed with your dogs! I love that! I’m glad we have somewhere to take him where he feels that safe!”
“She really helped me out and she let me extend extra days on short notice and she just didn't absolute great job with Carhartt I am will definitely have her as my number one go to for babysitters”
“I highly recommend Jessica! It was obvious she is a ‘dog whisperer’, gentle soul, who will make your dog feel like they are at home! She sent daily photos, videos, updates, gave my dog her monthly & quarterly medication, provided her a comfy crate to sleep in, and a kiddy pool filled with strawberries! And there’s 3 dog friends to bond with! My fur baby had a loving spa experience! Book with Jessica!”
“Kristen did an excellent job, and I highly recommend her. I was a little hesitant at first because of the pricing, but once I realized what was included, it made complete sense. Her setup is on a large piece of land that has clearly been customized specifically for pets. There are multiple fenced-in areas where dogs can safely run freely, and it gave me a lot of peace knowing my dog had space, structure, and proper care. Her communication could not have been better. Every time I texted her, she responded within minutes and fully addressed whatever concern I had. I also noticed a real difference in my dog after coming home. Before the stay, my dog would just come up to me and act excited when she needed to go outside. Now she actually cries to be let out, which is much easier to understand. She also seems to pull a lot less when I take her outside, so it honestly feels like some obedience training happened during the stay too. The kennel is climate controlled, the property is very well set up, and Kristen clearly cares about the dogs she watches. She even gave my dog special treats like pup cups with peanut butter and whipped cream. I was honestly worried my dog might not want to come home. If you want to leave your dog somewhere and not have to worry the whole time, this is the place.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my strong experience working with dogs and puppies of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, starting with pets belonging to family and friends, which helped me build a solid foundation of hands-on experience with dogs in everyday home environments. I’m especially comfortable with puppies and understand the patience and consistency they need while learning routines like potty training, crate training, leash walking, and basic commands. I also enjoy helping reinforce positive behaviors through structure, repetition, and lots of encouragement. For adult dogs, I adapt easily to their personality—whether they are high-energy and need plenty of exercise or more relaxed and prefer a calm routine. I also have experience with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, and extra attention to comfort and mobility. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, and behavioral cues, so they feel secure and understood while in my care. My goal is always to create a safe, trusting environment where dogs feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially with my availability in the afternoons and evenings. Since I work part time, I have ample time during the day to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I enjoy spending my evenings going on walks, which would make it easy and consistent for me to provide daily exercise and outdoor time. I also look forward to using my free time for play, feeding, and bonding activities that help build trust and comfort with pets. In my home or a client’s home, I provide pet care with consistency, attentiveness, and respect for the animal’s routine and comfort level. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medication instructions if needed, and any specific preferences the owner provides. I make sure pets always have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean, safe environment. I prioritize daily exercise and enrichment through walks, playtime, and interaction suited to the pet’s age, energy level, and personality. I also focus on building trust through calm, patient handling and positive attention. In a client’s home, I am mindful of maintaining the space exactly as instructed, keeping things clean and secure, and making sure the pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand the importance of routine, so I do my best to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for the pet while their owner is away. Overall, my approach is to care for each pet as if they were my own—providing reliable, loving, and responsible care tailored to their individual needs
“Alexis was amazing with our girls. She kept us updated on how they were doing, sent photos and even groomed them. She also gave them homemade treats. They loved her too. We look forward to using her services again.”
“Aubrey has watched my pup twice now and has given him the love, attention and care he deserves. It is rare to find people who care for your pet like you do and Aubrey really takes the time to care for my pup, Jax.”
“Marcie was great! She was so friendly, easy to work with, and flexible with my somewhat last-minute booking. She sent me an adorable picture of my dog hanging out with her dog. I needed her services so that my dog could be in my wedding ceremony, and she was nice enough to come pick my dog up from the venue for me at no extra charge. I would definitely hire her again!”
