“As usual, Dianne was very accommodating. Opie loves it when we get to her house & he runs inside like it’s his second home. That says it all for me. She makes it much easier for us to be away from our “baby”.”

“Suzanne watched our dog for about 4 days and he really enjoyed his time there and playing with her dogs and in the backyard. She sent us a picture everyday so we could see what he's up too. We'd definitely use her again when we're in the area again.”


“I needed a sitter for my pups very last minute and Jennifer stepped up! She was fantastic with both of my dogs! She sent pictures and videos many times during their stay! Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter!! 15 out of 10!!”

“Kelsey took great care of my 2 dogs this week! (1 pitbull &1 frenchie) it was 5 nights , they played with them and kept them fed and happy the whole time and updated me randomly and also responded quickly if I had any questions about my babies!! She does have children which has previously been an anxiety point for my pit bull.. the kids were so friendly and patient and he played well with them all weekend! Overall really happy with the turnout and that he was able to play with children in a controlled environment! Will definitely use her if we go out of town again!🩷”

“Lexi was wonderful. She really seemed to enjoy my dog, a boxer. She sent me a lot of pics suggesting he was having a fine time at his sleep over. I immediately felt at ease with leaving him there. I’ll use her again if she is available. When we got him his stools were normal (they aren’t when he is stressed) and he hadn’t lost weight (does when he is stressed). He was fine.”

“Katelyn and Andria are AWESOME! We were very nervous about leaving our Golden retriever with someone we didn’t know while we attended cedar pointe but the experience couldn’t have been better. Great communication and lots of happy pictures of our pup throughout the day put us totally at ease. I would highly recommend Katelyn and Andria for anyone that needs a dog sitter in the Sandusky area. Thank you so much!”

“She's amazing!! Super accommodating when my flight was delayed from the snow. She took great care of my pup and updated me frequently with a video or picture! She's a great petsitter!!”

“After we had a meet and greet Lelo was excited to come back and stay for the week. Bridget and her family made Lelo feel at home and loved. Bridget has a large room, where the dogs are free to play. Plenty of water and toys. Lelo can't wait to come back and hang out with her boys.”

“We found Cynthia and Tim because their location was convenient for our activities around Ohio's Lake Erie islands, but we also found their home to be a great place for our pups to hang out. The pups got lake side walks in their safe and charming community. (We are considering making their Lakeside community a destination for ourselves.) We are grateful for Cynthia and Tim's flexibility in scheduling as well. We will definitely call them next time we're in the area!”

“This was our first experience with Erin and we couldn’t be happier. She took great care of Cali, kept us updated throughout the day via text and pictures. She was very flexible in our pick up time due to the circumstances with not knowing exactly when we would be back. Prompt response to our texts. Will be taking Cali back for this weekend.”


“Jennifer was fantastic. She spent a great amount of time getting the dogs warmed up to each other. Fritz had a great overnight stay and she kept me updated the whole stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!”

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.
“We could tell that Stella enjoyed her time with Betsy & Gordon and their children. We were very selective in our selected sitters leading up to our European vacation. This was our first out of the country vacation away from Stella. Betsy and Gordon provided us with great communication leading up to the booking, and great communication throughout. Easing my fur momma worries. We hope that Stella will visit again soon!”

About: I have been around schnauzers, and countless other breeds and animals, my entire life. I've raised, cared for, and helped care for one large dog, 5 miniature schnauzers, a cat, a bearded dragon, fish. My first dog was mine at birth. My first attempt to care for an animal was a baby rabbit in the 10th grade, 20 years ago. Sadly, that did not end well. I have helped raise 2 cousins, 3 nephews, 1 niece, and one I consider a niece. I helped care for my grandpa for 6 months in 2011, when he got dementia, and my other grandma, from 2019-2021, also with dementia. I house sat a cat for a week a few years ago. I am allergic to unclean cats, possibly longhair dogs and cats. I've owned 3 dogs, some fish, and recently brought my niece's bearded dragon back to health. I just love animals so much, and would do everything in my power to keep them healthy, safe, and happy. I have an open schedule to be able to do whatever is needed of me, with just other self employment things I can easily schedule around petcare needs. I have an open yard, with a chain, leashes, a food dish, and a lot of dog toys. I do prefer walks, or outside bonding time while on the chain. Treats after coming in are a necessity.

About: I have many years of experience with cats. I have experience giving cats insulin shots and IV's of fluids to stay hydrated. A lot of friends and family has relied on me to cat sit for them and are always happy with me. I love all my furry friends and give them lots of playtime and love!
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was in middle school. I love all animals, whether they are super playful or super cuddly. While I have a soft spot for larger dogs having a German Shepherd & a Husky, I also enjoy the playful energy of small dogs & cats :) I have a full time job, I mostly work until about 4pm and am willing to dedicate the rest of my day to hanging out with your pets! My job is also very flexible and I am willing to adjust my schedule for longer stays (more than a week). I’m open to crate trained and free roaming pets. I do prefer to use a leash when going on walks to ensure the safety of your pet.
About: As to getting my first pet ever at the age of 21 to my rescue pit mix and to now owning 5 animals, 2 dogs and 3 cats, I’m an animal lover. I’ve helped family and friends with pet sitting their fur babies while they’re on vacation even if it’s for a weekend or a week. I am available any day during the weekday and also available on weekends for any stays or drop in visits if needed for any reason. I have a partially fenced in yard so I do go out with the dogs on leashes. I can also crate your dog if needed.

About: I have taken care of pets my entire life. I have cared for dogs of all sizes as well as cats. It’s not a job it’s a passion.

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.

“5/5 Stars — 10/10 Highly Recommended! I cannot recommend Ava enough! She saved the day by stepping in on just two days' notice to take care of my cat for a full week straight. She did two 30min-1hr long drop-in visits every single day and was absolutely wonderful. She is super nice, incredibly reliable, and kept me updated the entire time with excellent communication. It gave me total peace of mind knowing my cat was in such great hands. I will absolutely be booking her again!”

About: I have owned a dog since I could remember, every time I see a dog, my head goes out the window because I am such a dog lover. I will not only treat your dog like a pet, but like a member of the family, as he/she is a member. I will walk your dog, feed, in-home visits, etc. It would be an honor to be able to be around dogs all day. I would love the opportunity to keep your fur babies safe, healthy and having fun throughout the day. I have plenty of experience raising a dog in the family and I will treat your dog like my own family dog. You can ensure that you can put your fur babies trust in me.

“Charlie had a great time with Patricia. And he loved spending time with her doggie as well. We are so happy we found someone who could watch Charile while we went to dinner.”

“Thank you so much. Ince we met this wonderful family we know Sajde was going to be well taken care of. They made Sajde feel right at home. The children were happy to have her too. Loved the pictures Kelsey sent through out the day. Would highly recommend using her pet sitting service!”

I’m also happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, potty routines, walks, and any special care your pet may need.

“My partner and I are homebodies and rarely separated from our two wonderful aging Labradors but had a short notice occasion that couldn't include our dogs. Since our dogs are usually with us 24/7, we do not have an emergency backup. Our vet suggested Rover.com and Cindy came to our rescue. We had a "meet and greet" the same day as my initial contact and Cindy was agreeable to a day care service on a day she usually isn't available. She was personable, demonstrated a kind interest in our pups, and they were safe and happy when we returned. I was very pleased to learn of this service and would not hesitate to use Cindy again! What a relief!”
“Pippin did so well there! They were amazing with him and took such great care and updated me with little things to reassure me on how he was doing! Great people! Would use them again for sure!”


“Jennifer is very warm and extremely competent with animals. My dog adores her and he behaves much better after a day with her. (He's a puppy and we are trying very hard to learn to be good...but aren't always) I completely trust her with my dog and feel fortunate to have found her.”
“We cannot say enough good things about Suzanne! Our dog Barkley had a wonderful afternoon at her house: he spent the day basking in her sunny yard and napping inside (basically Barkley’s idea of a perfect day!) Suzanne was wonderful to communicate with: prompt, friendly and quick to answer any questions I had. Additionally, she was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times which we really appreciated, and she communicated during Barkley’s visit. We will absolutely book Suzanne again and highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

“Erin and her family were absolutely incredible! We had a very last-minute, late-night request, and Erin was so flexible, responsive, and accommodating to get care coordinated. This was our first time ever leaving our puppy, and she immediately gave us peace of mind with updates, sweet pictures, and amazing communication throughout the day. It was clear our puppy was loved and cared for like family. We are beyond grateful for her kindness, reliability, and exceptional care. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable, we highly recommend Erin and her family!”


“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!”
