“Brad is great. He's super fast at responding and always willing to accommodate requests. We have two 50lb dogs that he handles really well and love their long walks. Can't recommend Brad enough.”

About: I have had dogs of my own since 1999. I have dog sat for family members in my home and in theirs. I completed dog behavior training while volunteering for a local pet rescue. I have a fairly open schedule at this time. While I will be doing pet care part time, most engagements should work with my schedule. When in your home, I will strive to maintain your pet’s environment and schedule. I want your pet to be comfortable while we are together.
About: I am an animal lover through and through, and started dog sitting at 15! I have been a reliable and caring pet sitter for friends and family members for many years. A few activities I love are playing fetch, going on walks and of course, snuggling! I’m experienced in giving medication to dogs and caring for senior pets. I have two cats of my own to snuggle, and two dogs at my parents house I often visit! I am currently working part time and would love to fill my schedule with dog walks or pet sitting during the summer! I enjoy living an active lifestyle as I go on hikes and bike rides during my free time. I have two cats at my own home so would not be able to take in animals. I look forward to being able to care for pets in their own home.
About: Since childhood, I’ve had a love for anll animals. I’m a fun-loving pet sitter who will go above and beyond for your pup like no one else. I’m a fun-loving pet sitter who will go above and beyond for you animals like no one else. I keep pet parents updated with cute pics, walks, and happy tails while you’re away! I’m currently not working so I have plenty of time for walks and play time. I’m very flexible so if there’s something changed you need, let me know and we can work it out. I have a big fenced backyard where they can play with my dog, Benzie. If crate needed, I can easily do that. However, I prefer not to if they do not need it especially if I am home.
About: I’ve loved and cared for a variety of animals throughout my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, a parakeet, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, fish, a bearded dragon, and a red tail boa. I LOVE animals. When I was a kid I would even spend my weekends at our local pet shop holding and playing with their animals. I am a mother of two teenagers, and have been a small business owner, so I am extremely responsible, reliable, caring, attentive to detail, and have the skills to do anything necessary to care for your pets. I am available most of the time, and my time is flexible. I recently sold my half of my small business and am now taking some time for myself (that I want to fill with animals!), so I am almost always available and flexible. We have a fenced in yard, but we also live in a beautiful historic neighborhood and love taking walks around the neighborhood and to the park as often as possible.
“Haley has been incredibly responsive from the very beginning, even meeting with us ahead of time before scheduling. She’s warm, friendly, and so understanding with our pup, Cosmo. He tends to be shy at first, but Haley’s gentle approach has really helped him start to come out of his shell. We truly appreciate her patience and the thoughtful updates she provides after each visit. We’re so glad to have her as part of Cosmo’s care going forward!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’ve spent a couple years volunteering at animal shelter, where I was required to learn how to work with many different personalities. I’m very knowledgeable when it comes to reading dogs body language and figuring out their needs. I fed, walked, and played with many pups. I have 10 years of experience, taking care dogs. Neighbor, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I’ll enjoy taking your pup on long walks and hikes, basically anywhere dogs are allowed. I am very passionate about our furry friends and treat them with love and compassion, I will love your pup like it were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule so I can work from home if I need to. I normally do potty breaks every 4 hours. I also have a schedule of feeding twice a day but if you prefer a specific schedule let me know. Teddy is a friendly pup and will keep your dog entertained. I normally don’t crate dogs unless it is necessary. If you prefer your dog being crated or is being trained let me know. Your dog will be loved and cared for.
“Dorothy was great! Very friendly and good with Luna. She sent pictures during each walk so I could see my pup was getting attention! I would definitely book her again!”
“Autumn was such a huge help while I was working. She made sure Koda went on good walks and spent the time to come meet us before we started walking! She is on time and great with animals”
About: I grew up around dogs, caring for all breeds and sizes. I am experienced in puppy care, senior dogs, and providing loving attention to every furry friend. With a flexible job and my law studies, I have plenty of free time to offer personalized care for your pet. I can easily adjust my schedule to provide walks, playtime, and attention whenever needed. I provide a safe, familiar environment by following your pet’s routine, ensuring their comfort and well-being. I’m careful with home safety and always keep you updated.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, from a 15lbs mini golden to a 130lbs mastiff. I love taking long walks no matter the weather (as long the dog is comfortable!) and have experience with senior dogs who require a lot of love and attention, and sometimes lots of medication. If your pet had specific needs, I can certainly make sure they’re taken care of the best way they can be! I have similar experience with cats, caring for teething kittens and senior cats who need extra attention. I love cats, but I understand sometimes they take longer to warm up. I don’t mind just hanging around until they feel comfortable enough to come up to me themselves. My number one priority is making sure your pet is comfortable and cared for. I’m a full time college student who’s lived in the Dayton area my whole life, allowing me to watch pets in the area year round (I’m a rising senior at the University of Dayton). I currently have an online internship, but it’s unpaid and I don’t get a lot of work to do. I have lots of time to devote to taking care of your critters. I’m willing to stay with pets for as long as they need, whether that means overnight or just some company during the day. I’m patient with pets that are wary of strangers; I do what I can to respect their boundaries. I will always wait until they’re comfortable enough to come up to me. I have a dog at home who is very nervous around new people. Because she’s so big we have to be very careful of how we introduce her to people. She’s a high maintenance lady, that’s for sure! But she loves just having company, and I know that many pets just want to have someone to be around.
About: I love animals and am reliable, patient and attentive to their individual needs - whether they need a feeding schedule, long walks or short frequent walks, or just companionship and care. I grew up with both large and small dog breeds. I also have experience with cats and litter box cleanup. I am a small business owner so I can plan my day around your pets' needs. I only care for 1-2 pets from same family in my home at a time. I can care for your pet in your home or at my home. I can care for crated or uncrated animals. My yard is not fenced so potty time would be on leash in the back yard or your litter box. No other pets or children in the home.
About: With over 11 years of experience fostering dogs and volunteering at local shelters, I’ve cared for pets of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. My background has given me a deep understanding of dog behavior, and I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace and a little extra TLC. I also have hands-on experience caring for pets with special needs, including administering medications and providing mobility support. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I approach every pet with patience, compassion, and reliable care you can count on. I’m currently freelancing, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on pet care. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, I can easily adjust my day to fit your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in your home or on a walk, I customize my care to each dog’s needs. I’m patient and focused on ensuring your pup feels safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.
