Personalized care for your dog or cat - Vaughnsville

“Tanya was the best sitter we could have gotten for our 4 year old boy cat and almost 7 year girl cat with asthma, especially at such short notice. Not only was she attentive while we went over all the medicine care and personality details for the fur babies, but she was also super responsive and even sent check in pictures as well. She's also very conscious of animal behavior and what does/doesn't make cats comfortable or happy. If we ever need a pet sitter again, we won't hesitate to book Tanya.”

About: I’m a pet lover who enjoys spoiling and sending back home ;). Unfortunately, my work schedule does not align with the love and care a pet would need full time right now which is why this is perfect for us all! I will only provide boarding for a single pet unless they come from the same family home so they will have all of my attention! I love walks so if your pup does too then it’s a perfect match! You won’t need to worry about your pet on vacation because I promise they will be vacationing themselves! On the days of availability I will be home full time with all attention available to your pet! I only provide care to one pet at a time (unless they are coming from the same household) so they will be very spoiled! I love walks so if your pet does too, we are a perfect match! I have a fenced in yard and do not have any animals in the house. Your dog will have access to the inside and outside. They do need to be trained but I do also keep in mind that accidents happen.

“Our dog was well cared for. He was happy and healthy when we came back to pick him up. Oren did a great job and we were very pleased with his care.”

“We had a family medical appointment that was out of town. Our usual sitter was out of town and our back up was full. Breanne responded quickly to my questions and was able to watch my boys. The home had a fenced yard where they could run around and the boys had 2 dogs to play with. When we picked them up, both boys were exhausted to the point they slept for the rest of the day. On top of that, I didn’t realize I booked an extra day. She made sure to contact rover and adjust the reservation so that I would not get charged another night. Thank you for making a very stressful situation better. But on top of that she sent pics of the boys, so I knew they were in good hands!”

“Emily is the absolute BEST!! Hands down, the best sitter we could ask for while we travel. She’s attentive, engaged and genuinely cares deeply for Harry. Thank you doesn’t say enough!! Harry is disappointed to come home… so you know it was good time for him :)”

“Jessica was a fantastic sitter for Moose! I would absolutely recommend her again and again to care for your pups. She kept me updated regularly with photos and videos, and treated Moose like he was one of her own. Sounds like they may even be getting a Great Dane themselves! Thank you again, Jessica and family!”

“Pups had an amazing well loved stay! Will definitely be using Ruff House Inn as our top choice for boarding in the future couldn’t recommend enough!”

About: I’ve took care of a lot of animals in different breeds for friends, family, strangers. There will never be a dull moment with me and your babies I am a college student so this is a great way to make money and do something I love. I’m basically available anytime after 3 but could work out other times in your favor. I have a nice private backyard, a good size apartment that is always clean, I have 2 male pups that can keep your baby company and if they don’t do well with dogs I can keep them separate as well.

“I trust my two fur friends with Madison 100%! Madison is trustworthy, professional, and honest, and kept me updated with details and pictures of the visits. One cat always comes out to get attention when Madison arrives. My elder cat hides from all visitors, Madison made sure to find her to “lay eyes on her” and made sure she had some snacks close so she didn’t feel left out. They both looked great and healthy after our 10 days gone. Thanks so much, Madison! — From Bonnie, Blondie and Mabel”

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

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.

“Oren was great with Sundae! He took the cutest pictures and even took her on outings! I know she had the best time and will miss the new friends she made 🥰”

About: With 25+ years of experience with pets and livestock I have had the privilege of having a house full of dogs. With two of my own currently I have had the opportunity to care for many dogs over the years and understand how important their care is when your away for an extended period of time. Knowing the absence of parents can be a stressful time for animals I offer comfort and care to ease the stresses of change in routine. My daily routine includes early mornings, outdoor activities, working full time from home and have the flexibility to host a pet or do drop-ins during the work day. At this time I am perusing a Bachelor’s degree in Forensic Accounting online and spend most of my free time around home. I understand the comfort and safety of animals is the upmost priority when caring for my own as well as others. Being sure they are on the property or secured when on walks as well as keeping them away from other animals and people that they might not be familiar with to avoid any conflict.

About: I've taken care of many different dogs since I was a kid. Family friends, coworkers, and family have relied on me to feed, walk, and play with their dogs. I am a recent college graduate so I have a very open and flexible schedule. I am more than willing to adjust my plans to ensure your pets always have the care they need! I have cared for many different pets with all sorts of medical and behavioral needs. Whether your pets needs round the clock care or just a nice long walk while you're at work I will make sure they get what they need.

About: I have cared for multiple kinds of pets including dogs, cats, reptiles, guinea pigs, etc. I have worked at two veterinary clinics as well as a pet store. I know the importance of animal care and will ensure that any animal in my care is treated right. I am currently working full time at Aldi. My hours differ week to week; earliest I work is at 6am and the latest I get off is 9pm. But, I don’t work super long hours so it is still very easy to fit pet care in my schedule! I will be moving back to school in West Lafayette, IN in August 2026. My services will take place at my client's home. Depending on if there are any specific directions, I will care for your pets properly and do what you request.

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 currently am apart of the Polar Paws program as a Secondary Trainer. 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.

About: I grew up watching a lot of Animal Planet, back when Animal Channel was Steve Erwin, Jeff Corwin, Meerkat Manor, and various Vet shows, and I've always had cats around me at home and at my grandparent's. I've also walked and cared for dogs for family off and on over the years. I promise to do my best to take care of your fur babies as if they were my own! I can't do any boarding or stay overs as I have two of my own cats I need to love on, but I'm currently part-time, so I am fairly flexible to make time for your fur babies otherwise. I fully understand that some pets want space from strangers outside the necessary while others need someone to hang out with them and tire them out. I'm comfortable to providing whatever your pet needs.
