Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Walnut Hills

“Heather was wonderful! She sat & spent time with my kiddos, and provided pictures each session. Makes me feel so much better having someone I can trust there for my babies when I have to be away!”

Mikala P.

“I am beyond grateful for Alison’s exceptional care of my dog. Not only did they provide all the basics—feeding, walks, and playtime—but they went the extra mile to make sure my dog was safe during a snowstorm. She was incredibly. It was evident that Alison thought about my dog and when above and beyond and truly cares about animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, thank you for your kindness and dedication!”

About: Early 40’s year old sitter/walker with car. You could say I have 40+ years of experience. My family had a German Shepherd from before I was born and I was very close to her. There has been a stream of pets in my family. Including so so so many cats in NYC. Even going so far as to “rescue” a half feral one. Currently, I share ownership of a dog. As a small business owner of over 10 years, I am able to have a flexible schedule and spend more time hanging out with your pet(s). That said, I have a lot of experience managing other people, and I do have high expectations for clear communication from clients. I have never had a complaint from clients that already have human children. I am very clear about the kind of care I offer. For example, I clearly state I can do 4-8 hrs for letting out. That does not mean that when I get to the sit, you tell me you expect every hour. I also do not cancel other bookings so that you can be the sole client. I have been through that, obliged, and the client was still dissatisfied. I am running a business and the new owner of this app runs on harsh algorithms that hide you in search. Let’s try to be better and more human, than conforming to private equity and their bottom line. For the fur babies, I can follow their diet and pet or play or brush their hair. As long as you give me a list or schedule, I'll do my best to provide it. I have extensive experience with pets at all stages of life. (As well as other kinds of pets which I am open to caring for.) I understand the care required for a wide variety of needs and can do my best to provide reinforcement on current training, but I am not going to be attuned right off the jump to the nuances noticed by your trainer or you... I can reinforce sit, lay down, paw, stay, heel, rollover, or anything else. I can administer medicine. I am not formally trained in pet CPR, but I am trained in human CPR and have looked at videos for pet CPR. When I was younger I worked as a lifeguard, and have a remarkable natural ability to stay calm and act fast in crisis situations. This comes in handy, for example: when protecting my maltipoo from other dogs, managing territorial behavior, or keeping one dog out of another dog’s bowl. My schedule is flexible and I have a car. I have a small business and partial responsibility of my dog, so I do need to be able to run errands, go to meetings, or check in at home to keep that part of my life running. For extended care, and distance further than 5 miles, I prefer be given the option to stay over at clients for the sake of gas costs, time, and energy. First meeting and approach are important to setting a precedent, I first see if the pet will approach me. I like to offer my hand palm down for them to smell. Sometimes it takes a few times smelling the hand before they feel comfortable letting me pet them. In my opinion it’s important not to mess up first impressions with the pet. Spending time together builds familiarity bonds, being attentive builds trust. It’s important to build rapport.

“Taylor was great. She spent time to feed and check on our cats, even trying to find them each day as they hid to confirm they were ok. They were both excited to see us when we got home but were well taken care of.”

Adam M.

“Dana took great care of our cat while we were away! She sent pictures and a detailed note everyday, which made us feel so much better! I would definitely recommend her for cat sitting.”

“Crista was amazing. I was a first time rover user and she was very responsive, helped me feel comfortable in this process and had great ideas with how to approach my hesitant pup. 10/10 would recommend”

“Amaya was very considerate and my cat loves her. She’s very good with animals. 10/10 service”

Jersson P.

“Corey is the best! He has been regularly dropping in on my two pups for a few weeks now and they absolutely love him. He is reliable, punctual, and just has a kind and calming presence. He knows and understands dogs well, and that experience shows. I would trust him with my pets any day!”

Alex W.

“Bethany took such great care of our large pit bull/lab mix. It was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous, but I could tell right away that our dog was in very good hands. She was very responsive and sent tons of pictures, and we will definitely use her in the future!”

About: I truly care about animas and want to give them a welcoming environment. I have a cat of my own and care for him daily. I have a dog back home in Wisconsin so I have experience with dogs and cats. I love animals! I’m an athlete at UC and have some free time during the week to watch and spend time with furry friends! Most afternoons I’m completely free. I have a pet friendly apartment with a cat of my own. To care for pets I have food, water, treats, and lots of toys.

“Johnnisha will definitely be someone I contact again about checking in on my cat! Very friendly and obviously cares about animals. I appreciated her sending some pictures of my baby when I was away!”

Haley E.

“Grace was so fantastic with Mora and Finn! We have two very energetic Australian Shepherds. Grace was super kind and played with them outside for the entire visit! We look forward to having Grace dog-sit again!”

Luke B.

“Haley is an amazing sitter! She is very conscientious and communicative. It is easy to tell that she cares about the animals that she is watching - she goes above and beyond to make sure that they are safe and happy. Her communications are clear and helpful. I will certainly contact Haley the next time that I travel, and I recommend her highly to anyone in the Cincinnati OTR area.”
