About: My name is Anna, and I'm an avid animal lover. I grew up with pets my entire childhood, and I now have my own cats and a dog! I've walked, fed, and done daily pet check-ins for neighbors and friends. I have worked with many different dogs, cats, and fish. I work a 9 - 5 on weekdays, so I can check on or walk your pet in the mornings or evenings. I’m pretty flexible on weekends! I make pet care my #1 priority! I'm used to waking up early, cleaning up vomit, and the occasional scratch or bite. I also love spoiling all pets with special treats, enrichment games, and lots of play-time. I only want the best for you and your pet. My line of communication is always open. I'll care for your pet like my own.
“Marisha has taken care of our 3 cats several times. She is conscientious and excellent at comminicating. She has also been willing to feed community cats (at our request) that stop by. She has gone above and beyond on a couple of occasions. I will hire her again.”
“Monroe has been great with checking on our cats! She always writes a great summary of each visit, and takes precious photos! We feel so confident that our cats are getting so much love when she comes to visit :) we are grateful for Monroe, and will definitely ask to book with her for our future travels!!”
“Sierra was wonderful with our dog! She left detailed reports and sent lots of pictures for her drop in visits. She was very reliable and our dog really seemed to love her visits!”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my lifetime ranging from dogs, horses, pigs, goats and cats. A couple years ago I rescued my own dog & have really enjoyed the process of watching him grow. I have recently had a lot more free time on my hands. I would be available to watch your pet anytime throughout the day! thanks ! I currently do not wish to board dogs at my place - but am willing to come to your place. If there are any special rules you have I request those be written down ahead of time!
About: Had taken care of my own dog for 15 years. I Started Pet Sitting to fill the void of the loss of my own dog❤️🩹 I’m currently in school full time but not working, so I will be able to give your pet plenty of love and will make time to provide excellent care. I have cared for many dogs over the years. I have experience giving medications and taking care of dogs with special needs. I will provide excellent love and care for your pets!
About: Hello there! My name is Abby and I am a 27 year old exotic animal keeper, as well as cats and dogs. I have several different species ranging from large snakes to chameleons. I have been caring for exotic species for the last five years. I also care for dogs and cats. I’ve had 20 years of dog and cat care experience. I got my first dog, Sophie, when I was just five years old. Throughout the years, I cared for her and many other dogs and cats growing up. Right now, I have four of my own dogs and fourteen cats who are extremely spoiled! When watching your pet, expect them to be spoiled and loved just like they’re my own. I have experience with giving medication to both cats and dogs. I also had a senior cat that required special care and know how to provide care for any senior animal. I can care for your exotic animals in my house, as I have a separate room for my own exotics. Dogs and cats that stay with me will have their own room and set up as well. I also can provide drop in visits for your furry friends. For cats, I provide toys, cat trees, cat beds, and a hammock. I ask that you bring their food, bowls, litter, and litter boxes and any other special items they may need. Same goes for any dogs :) I have worked as a foster for shelters in Columbus for three years as well, so I am used to providing 24/7 care for other animals. I work from home full time, so I am able to have a very flexible schedule. If you need your animal cared for in my home, I am able to provide that service. I get off of work in the early evening, which gives me plenty of time to do drop in visits after work. My yard is fenced in, which is great for your doggie kiddos. I also do not let my cats outdoors, so any cat staying with me will be safe in the home. I have a dedicated room in our home where I house all of my rover guests away from our pets. Small dogs are okay to be boarded in my home, as well as any cats as long as they are litter box trained.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, they’re the best! I currently have a pup with epilepsy, so I’m very confident in dealing with special needs. I’m a stay at home mom who owns a small business and makes her own schedule so I am open pretty much always. Depending on the hours you need me, my daughter may have to tag along. I can crate your dog when I leave if that is preferred, or take them out to potty on a leash. Whatever your normal routine is, I will continue while you’re away!
About: We’ve had dogs of all sizes in our home since I can remember. And I’ve raised a few of my own along with 2 cats I am available all week. I can check in on your pets and let them out and feed them according to your routine. I will also walk your pets. I can also board and host daily care of multiple pets. You can leave me any detailed instructions on how you’d like your pet cared for. I’ll come in and take them out into the yard to do their business, or change their pads/clean up cat litter and clean any messes they may have left. If they need to be fed I’ll give them food and water also according to your instructions. And if they need to be walked around the neighborhood or park I can do that also. When they are in my home you can bring toys, beds, or Blankets that they feel more comfortable in, but I can provide that as well. You may bring your own food that does well for their diet.
About: I have a love for all animals, big and small. I have a large dog and smaller dog, as well as a cat. I consider their well being just like I would consider mine.

About: I was born an animal lover! 🐾🤍 I grew up with dogs and have never lived without them. I learned basic obedience training around age 8, and have direct experience raising and training 8 different breeds (including stubborn hounds…🤪) from puppies to adults. I’ve dog-sat an additional 10 or so breeds, and I’m very knowledgeable in general about most breeds. My mom and I used to watch Dogs 101, Cesar Milan, and AKC dog shows religiously! I started volunteering at the humane society in high school and continued well beyond. I have supported foster organizations and even fostered some dogs and cats myself. I have also raised hamsters, guinea pigs (even built them a pig mansion! 🤭), rabbits, and saltwater fish. I truly mean it when I say I’m an animal lover! I am working full-time currently at a 9-5, but I work from home on Fridays. So I am available all day Friday-Sunday and every evening for walks or cuddles or potty breaks. 😊 I can also board cats and small animals any day of the week. Your pet’s comfort and routine is #1! I will care for them just like you would and will stick to their usual schedule. I always ensure a smooth introduction and a calm environment for your pet(s). I will refresh food and water if needed, return leashes to their proper place, and lock doors upon leaving. I am super flexible & I’m here for you (and your babies 🐕🦺🐈🐹🐠)!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I could remember growing up. And now more recently I’ve started watching family and friends animals as well while they’re gone on short trips I love visiting them and playing with them when I get there! Im currently working part time so I plenty of time to make sure your fur babies are taken care of. During the week is more better for me but I am flexible to do weekends sometimes as well! Since I have a full house I would prefer to come to you. I love to go for walks and play outside with my dogs or when I’m watching someone else’s and I make sure I keep them on the same feeding schedule.
