About: I have taken care of animals since I was a small child. I grew up on a farm so we had animals of all kinds. I also have a senior dog at home that needs medication3 times a day, so I am able to help with that as well. I am a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of availability any time of the day to take care of your animals or go for walks I can help with any animal items that are needed. I can crate animals, feed, walk, medicate, change litter box, and clean up any accidents

About: I’ve always had dogs my whole life and am able to build a special connection with them! I can’t wait to build connections with more dogs, cats, and other pets! I am currently a college student home for the summer with lots of free time to care for pets!! I am only working a remote internship so my schedule is very flexible! Pets are just as important as people and are family! I make sure to treat my pets and others with care and respect, while also making sure they’re having fun and behaving well! Being the owner of a high energy dog myself, I am well aware of safety considerations as well!

“Arianna is wonderful. So calm and gentle with our two mini schnoodles. One of ours has anxiety and it took a day or two, but he just loves when she comes.”

About: Hi I’m Abbey, I am a dance teacher who also has a passion for caring for pets! I absolutely love animals of any kind. I grew up caring for dogs and currently have two cats and a one year old Australian Shepherd! Having an Aussie, I have a lot of experience and knowledge on taking care of high energy breeds. I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and to figure out what makes them happiest. I can’t wait to get to know more about you and your furry friends! If you have any questions, please ask away. I currently work part time and am in school. I tend to have a lot of availability. Although it varies by week. I have more availability during seasonal breaks from school! I have a fenced yard and do my best to ensure a safe and fun environment in my home for dogs. When in others’ homes I am sure to take precautions to ensure your animals safely and comfort.

About: Hey guys! My name is Sam and I love dogs and cats! I have volunteered at the Humane Society of Delaware County. Most of my pets have been rescued from the Humane Society, as well as surrounding rescues. I'm experienced with puppies-senior dogs, and there is no breed that I dislike! I am experienced with all ages of cats as well! I can handle newborns-senior cats. I work full time as a Radiologic Technologist, so please keep this in mind when requesting to book, as I’m not available for drop ins/walks during the weekdays until about 4:30-5 pm. Other than that, I’m available anytime after 5 and anytime on the weekends. I'm available to bathe dogs as needed, give medicine when needed, pretty much anything you need. I can do walks, drop in visits, and stay at your home if you're away for extended periods of time. I am experienced pet sitting from my parents friends pop in visits, over night stays, and anything else they may have needed. I hope that you’ll choose me to help you out. I'm excited to meet you and your fur babies! I am also a Duck mom, so I am able to help care for your ducks if you have them! I work a full time job from 7am-5:30pm, and have Thursdays off. Along with my Thursdays off, I do not work weekends. I do not accept pets in my home, but am willing and able to come to your home. I can easily crate your dog if needed while I’m away.

I understand the stressors of traveling and leaving your babies in the hands of someone else while you’re away. Your pets will be in great hands while you’re away.

About: I grew up within a household with a variety of animals. At one point we had five dogs, a cat, a bunny, a guinea pig, three hamsters, 5 birds, a bearded dragon, and a gecko. I learned at a very early age how to tend to animals (clean, feed, play, walk, potty breaks, etc) I enjoy helping others and especially caring for animals. They simply bring me joy. I have open availability (other than dates marked off calendar) and am flexible to try and accommodate your schedule as best as possible in order to make things easy for you and your pet. My male husband and I own a house with a fenced in backward and a neighborhood to walk in. Since I have open availability, I have time to tend to the animals without any distractions from other tasks.

About: I've had pets since I was 10. I have taken care of both cats and dogs. Friendly, conscientious, and thorough. Can't wait to walk new dogs/friends. I'm currently off of work for the summer as I teach full time during the school year. I am working on taking time for myself, exercising, and walking dogs. I take care of my pets by either crating them or leaving them in a bedroom when I am out and about. I have a crate for them to use.

“Carrie was great, spent more time with them than she needed to and she left me pictures during and after each walk!”

About: Hi! I’m Dallas! Your pet’s home away from home. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, reptiles, and even farm animals so caring for pets isn’t something I learned, it’s just how I’ve always lived. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from high energy pups to shy or more sensitive animals who need a slower approach. Now that my daughters are about to be in school full-time, I finally have the flexibility and extra time to focus on pet sitting and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. This also helps fund my love for traveling, so I take this seriously and treat it like a real responsibility, not just a side gig. We’re a pet loving household, and your pet will be treated like part of the family while they’re here. We have two dogs who are very friendly and loving, they’ll definitely want to make friends but full honesty, they can be a little yappy at times. We also have a cat who mostly keeps to herself and doesn’t bother anyone. For safety and quality of care, I only take one family at a time, so your pet will always get my full attention without the stress of a crowded environment. We don’t have a fenced yard, but your pet will still get regular walks, attention, and supervised time to stay active and happy. What you can expect from me: • A safe, structured, and loving home environment • Plenty of attention, interaction, and supervision • Regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing • Respect for your pet’s routine, preferences, and comfort level I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else, so I do everything I can to make that decision easier and to make sure they feel right at home. My schedule is flexible and pet focused. I work part time as a hairstylist three days a week, but I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to make sure they get consistent attention, walks, and interaction. When I’m at the salon, my husband is home and helps maintain your pet’s routine, so they’re never left alone for long periods. Between the two of us, your pet will always have supervision, care, and plenty of attention throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I keep their routine as close to home as possible whether that’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or downtime. Since I only take one family at a time, your pet gets my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment. They’ll have plenty of interaction throughout the day, whether that’s playing, relaxing, or just being near someone whatever they’re used to. We don’t have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs are either leashed or closely monitored to ensure safety. Walks and regular potty breaks are built into the day. I’m very mindful of different personalities and energy levels. My two dogs are friendly and social, but I always make sure introductions are done slowly and safely so everyone is comfortable. Our cat keeps to herself and typically stays out of the way. On days I’m at the salon, my husband is home to help maintain your pet’s routine, so they’re never left alone for long periods. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to keep everything consistent and stress free feeding, walks, medications, and any specific preferences you have. My goal is always the same: to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. also send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: My whole life there was an animal in my household. So ever since I was 5 years old I would help out. It started off as just feeding the dogs but as I got older I gained more and more experience. Taking the dogs on a walk, letting them outside, simple grooming, administering medicine, etc. Dogs and animals alike have a special place in my heart. They truly are man’s best friend. Even if it isn’t my personal animal it is my goal to give your furry friend the same care and affection that they deserve. I’m currently a college student in my sophomore year. I miss my dogs now that I’m not home, so I truly do give other people dogs as if they are my own. My schedule is mostly open in the evenings and I’m more than willing to work things out, even outside of hours that are listed in my profile. I would want to get to know you and your dog before I come into both of your guys domain. I would follow directions however you desire and most importantly treat them as my own fur baby.

About: I’ve been taking care of my 15 year old dog since she was 8 weeks old! She now needs a lot more potty breaks than before, requires medication occasionally and waits for me to give her massages after waking up because her arthritis is worse in the morning! As you can see she needs extra catering to since she has gotten older. She is spoiled and cuddly and I love every second of it! I’m a social worker who does “home visits” for children during the day. My job is community based therefore it gives me more flexibility with my daily schedule. I think mental health is important therefore I believe in daily walks for myself! I will walk as long and as far as your dog will allow me to go! I have a wooded walking trail in my neighborhood that allows for exploring opportunities for your furry family members. 😊

About: I have prior experience walking dogs and I have had cats in my home for the majority of my life. I have also volunteered at animal shelters to help take care of the cats and dogs there. Pet care fits into my weekly routine well since I now have much more time available to dedicate to it. I am available most days of the week with normal hours (9 AM - 5 PM just as a ballpark) unless something comes up. I will care for the pets in their owner's home or in mine the same way they would if not better. If there is something specific that the pet needs, I will take care of it.

About: I am honest, dependable, and reliable. I have always grown up with animals. My parents gifted me my first pet when I was 5 months old. Since then, I have never been without. I have grown up with dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and even spiders. Your fur baby will be in the best of the care! During our visits they will be spoiled just as mine are and will enjoy our time together by playing or cuddling. I am available for drop in visits or dog walks in the afternoon. However, if i feel the temperature is too hot, I will not walk your baby for the safety of them. I will respect your home just as I would want mine to be in my absence. I am an over communicator and will spoil you with pictures of your fur baby while you are away. I am looking forward to meeting you and your fluffy love!

About: I am a trained veterinarian assistance (over 10 years experience) with a background in positive reinforcement training and grooming. I've also done a lot of work with special needs dogs (deaf, blind, amputees, behavioral issues, megaesophagous, Degenerative Myelopathy, diabetes, ect.) as well as being a certified therapy dog handler and trainer with Black Paw Canine. I worked for 10 years as a full time veterinary assistant at non-profit, full service vet clinics in Columbus and at various dog boarding and training facilities. I work part time as a Firefighter/Paramedic, so I am looking to fill my spare time doing something else I love! I wish to tailor the experience for each pet I meet. I can play, run, cuddle, groom, administer meds, train, you name it! It all depends on what your pet enjoys and what will be most beneficial to them! Thank you for trusting me with your furry family members! You can rest easy that with my years of experience and my time in veterinary and human medicine that your furry family member will receive the best care! I typically work one-two 24hr shifts with my fire department and then am completely free on my other days off. This gives me plenty of flexibility to help work around other schedules! Each pet gets a specialized care plan based on their needs. This will be discussed in length as to which things you'd like me to work on with your pup or what things we can reinforce when I care for your pet.

“My puppy loves Monica! I do too- she’s very kind, friendly and responsive!”

About: As a remote worker and pet owner myself, I am the go-to pet sitter, walker, and caregiver for friends, family, and neighbors. My 5 year old Mountain Cur mix Charlie Boy and 4 year old Bengal cat Bug are my adventure buddies, whether we're hiking local trails or rock climbing in the mountains. With 10+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, small mammals, and the occasional reptile, I consider myself an experienced pet caregiver. I have administered medication, provided physical therapy exercises, monitored special diets, and provided wound care when needed. My time working with the Delaware County Humane Society has allowed me to foster dogs with medical or behavioral issues and support their rehabilitation. Safety and happiness are my top priorities for any pet in my care. I treat them like members of my own family, providing exercise, mental stimulation, medication and rehabilitation, transportation, and any other care as needed. As a remote worker, I have flexibility to accommodate mid-day walks, visits, or medication. My home is fully pet-proofed with a securely fenced outdoor space nearby. I look forward to adventuring with your furry friends and providing the highest quality care and attention when you can't be there yourself. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your pet's needs - I'm happy to answer any questions. As a remote worker, I'm fortunate to have a flexible schedule that allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my regular routine. I typically start my day by taking Charlie Boy on a morning walk or run. We'll come home, I'll begin work, and he'll lounge by my feet or catch up on naps. Around noon, I take a break to get some energy out with Charlie Boy and give Bug her midday treat. In the afternoon, you can often find me sitting outside with my laptop watching Charlie Boy play fetch while Bug chases bugs in the grass. I'm able to schedule meetings and calls around pet needs, as well as take advantage of gaps between meetings to provide meals, walks, medication administration, or anything else a pet in my care may need. I finish up my workday while Charlie Boy chews on a toy beside me and Bug gazes out the window. After work, we all pile into the car to head to the park or explore a new hiking trail to end our day on an adventure together. My flexible schedule allows me to seamlessly provide excellent pet care while meeting the needs of my remote job. I'd love to do the same for your furry friends! For pet sitting in my home, I ensure my house is fully pet-proofed with no dangers for curious paws and mouths. I designate pet-friendly areas with beds, toys, scratching posts, litter boxes, and anything else to keep them comfortable and entertained. When pet sitting in a client's home, I follow care instructions for their specific pets and home environment. I provide the same level of care - feeding, medication, exercise, play, love and attention on a set schedule. For dog walking, I come prepared with waste bags. We go on 20-30 minute walks based on the dog's needs and age. I give them time to enjoy sniffing and exploring on the walk. For cats, I visit once or twice a day for feedings, litter box cleaning, play time and medication if needed. My goal is to provide a consistent experience whether pets are in my home or their own.

“Cori has been walking my Maxie since August 2021 everyday. Maxie enjoys her daily walks with Cori. Cori sends me a daily update and photo of her and Maxie's time together. Cori gives Maxie a full walk and treats Maxie as if she were her own dog. We are very pleased with Cori's services and recommend her.”
