Personalized care for your dog or cat - Kirby

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Kirby
“Oren and his family and pups treated Kakashi so well! He was spoiled with fun having a playmate all week. I was sent a ton of photos and updates so I never had to worry! I will definitely be using your services again, and maybe even add some additional play date services moving forward knowing how comfortable he was with you! Thank you again so much!”


“Murphy got great care with Jennifer and her family. He adjusted quickly. We really appreciated picking Murphy up and him having no anxiety. That is not usually the case. Also so nice to be so close in our country location. Thanks Jennifer, I’m sure Murphy will visit again.”

“Jen is so welcoming and makes you feel good knowing she'll love your fur baby the same as you do. She even gets up super early with ours bc he's used to our schedule. She's a gem I've used her 2xs now and will continue.”

About: I have been around dogs and cats for most of my life. In college, I worked at a boarding and training service for dogs. I currently have three of my own, and love being a dog mom. I treat my dogs like they are my children, and I enjoy being around animals all the time! I am a teacher, so during the summer months I have a lot of availability. I am looking to help out those who are busy or work during the summer. I can drop in to let out your pet and play with them for 10-15 minutes. For walking services, I will spend 30 minutes walking, and then play for 10-15 minutes. I have a spacious home and yard, but it is not fenced in. I always go outside with the pets and supervise them. We live in a safe neighborhood. My dogs are friendly and well-socialized; they enjoy being around other animals.
“I would like to take a minute to think Angel Lynn for caring for our two dogs over the weekend on such a short notice. She responded to the request quickly, she is very friendly. Great communication, I appreciate that she kept us updated on how they were doing. This was the first time they have ever been boarded so I was a little worried but she definitely put my mind at ease. She took the time to clean their bowls before we pick them up. She is great!!”

“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.”

“5 stars all the way! Jessica took great care of our big 'ol fur baby. She sent pictures and updates everyday and spoiled our doggo almost as much as we do! 100% WILL be using her again......VERY soon. In fact I will be booking several more dates this year later on today! THIS IS who you should be using to care for your fur baby!”

“Monica was the best! Even though I just moved into my place and still have boxes everywhere she didn't mind at all. She took good care of my kitties scoop the litter box and everything looked just like I left it when I came home. She even went above and beyond and washed the sheets she slept in and left me clean sheets so I could easily put them on and go to bed after a long day of traveling. I highly recommend her and would use her again and probably will!”


“Cheylsie is the best cat sitter in Upper Sandusky! She is dependable, a joy, and takes excellent care of our kitties. Our most fearful cat took to her. I highly recommend Cheylsie.”


“Kelly was awesome! She put my mind at ease with her organisation and calming nature, and Boba our cat seemed to love Kelly’s visits. Our quail are also doing great after Kelly, and she made sure to send picture of both Boba and the quail everyday, which made going home for the holidays stress-free. I will definitely be re-booking with Kelly in the future!”


About: Throughout my senior year of high school I spent time volunteering at the Van Wert County Humane Society where I worked a lot with cats and dogs. Specifically when caring for the cats, I clean their litter boxes, cages, and filled their bowls. Following the cleaning routine I had plenty of time to interact with the cats in their own ways as every furry friend has their own personality. At home I have a furry friend that I care for and I also cat sit for family members when needed!
About: A dedicated animal care professional who works with more exotic animals but still has time for your loving and adorable, important family of fur babies! I’m currently open to working full-time up until August 24th when I start back at my job. I can provide short and long term stays as needed. I pride myself on providing a safe and loving environment for your fur-baby. My background in animal care is something I highly value as this helps me connect with others.

About: I've taken care of cats since I can remember. A kitten was my very first pet in life. I can help feed, groom, clean litter boxes, and provide one on one interaction if need and wanted.

“Makayla did an outstanding job, We were away on vacation for a whole week and had her look in on the animals/house twice a day. She proved herself to be very loving and responsible! She was able to follow a detailed list of rules and responsibilities & my animals took to her very quickly which is especially unusual for my cat! Highly recommend 10/10!”

About: Growing up, my family has never not had a dog. I come from a family of dog lovers! I have experience with Rottweilers to Chihuahuas. I’ve always had a passion for animals and volunteer my time as a board member of Montana Pittie Project. My dog is my child and I will treat yours like it’s my baby as well! I also have experience taking care of special needs dogs, my dog that passed the rainbow bridge in August of 2022 was special needs himself. I have fostered multiple dogs while working in rescue and have experience with many different dog personalities and needs. I love sending photo updates to keep your mind at ease while you’re away. Feel free to ask me any questions! I work full time as a self employed hairstylist. With a flexible schedule I am able to take a break every day and hang out with my dog during the week. In the evenings I take Stella to a park nearby my house or we go on a walk around the neighborhood. I do have a fenced in yard. My current pup is kennel trained and it’s her safe space, if I work for a longer period than usual I have my own pet nanny or family checks in on my dog if I will be gone for too long. She is never along for more than 4-5 hours at a time. She eats in the morning and in the evening, I do not free feed. Stella has way more toys than any dog could need, and likes watching tv so I leave a nature show on for her when I leave the house. She’s a good girl.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Kirby
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.

“Jenn watched my puppy for the first time today and did a fantastic job! He has a somewhat complicated medical condition - she read about it before we met and handled it wonderfully. He was so happy (and tired) afterwards, and he loved playing with the other dogs in the house. Would definitely recommend!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Kirby

About: I have had a ton of pets in my life, including my current dog Fred. I am trusted with pet sitting for my neighbors and enjoy it. I work part-time but will definitely be at your place as much as needed. I am free every night past 9pm, so no worries about overnight stays. I can easily crate your dogs if needed. I love to sit and pet my dog for hours on end, so your animal will get all the attention they want.
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: Animals have always been a big part of my life and I always take care of them first! My dog is older but I will do anything to keep him healthy. He is very susceptible to things like hot spots and additional things since he's getting older. I always am on top of any needs of an animal. My sister relies on me all the time to help with hers and I always enjoy seeing my furry nephews. As well I did just get a bigger pitbull which has been very eye-opening and working with bigger dogs. This is something that I enjoy because even though they're stronger and sometimes harder to walk being younger I can have the strength to keep them beside me and just have a nice jaunter. Ever since I was young I've always had pets around me and I have taken care of anything from the normal house dog to reptiles all the way to birds so I am very surrounded by animals on a daily basis. Pet care on a daily basis is part of my routine by now. I always check on every animal and everyday I play with all of them to make sure they've got their playtime in. The dogs going out are a huge thing for me because I always want to make sure that if they have to go they can go and they can also get some outdoor time. I always make sure to love on the kitties too. I think it's important to trust the person that's coming in your home. That is a safe place for you and your family and your furry friends. I would not do anything to someone else's dog that I wouldn't do to mine. My dog is my world and my home is a very important place to me. I respect others boundaries and others belongings as well as animals. My top priority would be your animal over anything else.

About: Hey Pet Parents! My name is Juliana and I hold a lot of significant experience in caring for pets! First off, I am a full time student at Ohio Northern University where I was formally apart of the Polar Paws program as a Secondary Trainer. Due to school work and graduation plans, I am no longer a member, but all the skills I’ve acquired remain strong! This program allows college students to care for and train future service dogs. As a secondary trainer, I would work with various dogs on campus by training and sitting them while their primary caretaker is busy. Prior to university, I volunteered at the Van Wert County Humane Society where I worked with cats and dogs of all ages and all breeds. This consisted of walking the dogs, cleaning cages, cleaning litter boxes, playing with the animals, etc. Currently I am available anytime during the day and anytime of the week, until I update my availability when I need to go back to campus. I care for pets as if they are children. They need attention, respect, and when being babysat, a good time! That being said, in my own home they have access to their own food, water, play area, and have set potty breaks. In a clients home, the same will apply. Any alternative toys, medications, and food can be used most definitely if requested by client. Always a clean and tidy environment before and after.
“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 have had dogs since the day I was born and am currently mommy to one dog, four cats, two goats and a sassy pet cow. I am located on a three acre farm on the outskirts of town in Marysville, Ohio, and offer services to most surrounding areas. I offer boarding, daycare, house/farm sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, livestock/exotic care, and more! I can assure you that your pet(s) could not possibly be in better hands! They will get all the love and attention that I would give my own ....and then some. 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.
