About: Hi, I’m Nicole! I work from home most days, which allows me to provide a very flexible, attentive, and consistent schedule for your pet throughout the day. My husband (Kyland) is also an attorney and helps in the evenings and on weekends, so your pet will always have plenty of attention and care. We have one dog, Dela, who has a calm, easygoing personality and does great with other animals. I grew up on a farm and have spent my entire life caring for animals. I have over 15 years of house-sitting and pet-sitting experience, and I truly enjoy providing pets with a safe, calm, and loving environment while their owners are away. I’m comfortable administering medications, including injections, and carefully following any care instructions your pet may need. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and respectful of your home and your pet’s routine. I’m always happy to answer questions, hop on a phone call or FaceTime, or set up a meet-and-greet! I work from home most days, with the exception of Wednesdays. Even then, I’m never gone for extended periods. My flexible schedule allows me to be present throughout the day for walks, meals, playtime, and companionship, and I’m always able to work around occasional meetings. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I carefully follow all care instructions, provide regular check-ins and updates, and try to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible.
About: With experience of over 40 years with own cats and dogs of all ages, many of them ill, we take extra care .. also of your home:)) We are flexible in days and time being retired / working independently on and off from home. We are available over all holidays for you. We can take in dogs as long as they are good with cats. Our three senior girls are friendly in nature. Dogs must be up to date with their shots and flea/tick prevention.
“Our dogs seem to have enjoyed their stay. Great updates throughout the day with some wonderful photos (Vainy has a good eye for photography). We appreciated the flexibility in changing the pickup and dropoff times as our plans for the day kept on changing.”

“Maria was wonderful and took fantastic care of my little girl Bailey. I got photo updates regularly and really appreciate Maria taking such great care of her and being so communicative!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life and love providing a safe living home where your animals feel loved and safe. I work from home as a software developer and have plenty of free time to give your fur babies the attention they need. Call me!! We have a full basement with plenty of room to run and play. We also have a backyard that we put our dogs and yours on a leash tethered to the fence to keep them from roaming. Also take frequent walks to stretch their legs!!
About: I care for dogs because I genuinely enjoy spending time with them—it’s not just a job for me, it’s something I look forward to every day. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while they’re with me. I live in an area with easy access to walking trails, and daily walks are a big part of my routine. Your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and enrichment, not just quick potty breaks. I also have experience caring for puppies and can help reinforce basic training during their stay, such as leash walking, routines, and positive behaviors. I’m patient and consistent, and I understand how important structure is—especially for younger dogs. Overall, I treat every dog like my own and focus on giving them attention, activity, and a calm, caring environment. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I already spend a lot of time walking and being outdoors. Dogs in my care get regular walks, attention, and a consistent routine. I’m flexible and can adjust to each dog’s needs. Dogs are allowed to freely walk around in the house. I always make sure to leash them when we go explore the world outside. The walking trails in my neighborhood are well paved and safe.
About: I’ve had dog experience for 20+ years. Currently, I have 4 dogs and they’re all very friendly. Looking to find friends to relieve some of that energy. We would love to have a doggy day care! We’ve been taking them to dog parks since they were 8 wks old so very social puppies. I will take care of your pup as if it was another member of the pack! Our home has enough room for several dogs and a fenced yard! Dublin/Marysville and surrounding areas. I do have a full time job but I work from home so I can provide early morning walks, lunch break walks, and afternoon walks. If your dog is staying over during the weekend, they will definitely get to go to long walks in the park. I’m a runner so I’d love to run with your furry friend! I won’t have 2 different clients’ dogs at the same time. There’s plenty of space for them inside, fenced yard in the back, and live nearby parks/trails.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly enjoys caring for dogs like they’re part of the family! I grew up with three cats and later had a Beagle, Pippin, who was with us for 14 sweet years. For the past 5 years, we’ve regularly hosted dogs in our home, and we love the joy and energy they bring to our daily life! I work part-time and my husband works from home, so someone is almost always here. This allows us to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and flexibility for your dog’s needs and routine. Whether your pup loves walks, playtime, or just relaxing, we’re happy to match their pace. I especially enjoy daily walks and quiet time on the deck with our dog guests, where they can safely take in all the sights and sounds. We generally only watch one pup at a time so they will enjoy exclusive love and attention while they’re here! We have a large backyard that backs up to a bike path—perfect for walks and outdoor time. Our neighborhood is very safe, dog-friendly, and located close to a park. We also have three responsible teenage boys who love helping play with and care for the dogs, so your pup will get lots of attention and affection. Your dog will be treated like part of our family while they’re here. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and keep you informed so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. I currently work part-time and my husband works from home so we are very flexible and available to take excellent care of your pup! Your dog will be cared for in a safe, welcoming, and engaging home environment! We have a large backyard that provides plenty of space to roam, play, and relax, all while being set in a peaceful area that backs up to a bike path we frequently enjoy for walks. Our home is in a very safe, dog-friendly neighborhood with easy access to a nearby park, giving your pup even more opportunities for fresh air and exercise in a secure setting. Inside, your dog will be surrounded by lots of love and attention—our three responsible teenage boys truly enjoy spending time playing with and caring for dogs, adding to the warm, family-oriented atmosphere. You can feel confident knowing your dog will be in a secure, active, and caring environment where their safety, comfort, and happiness are always a top priority!
“Alec and Aishu, and their lovely dog Winnie, looked after my girl Nova beautifully. She can be a little skittish at first in unfamiliar situations, but she soon settled down and relaxed! She had an amazing time exploring, going for a long walk and playing with her new pal. I appreciated that photos were sent throughout the day.”

“Tatyana did a great job providing doggy daycare twice a week! I moved to SC and my son in Dublin, OH took care of Louie for a month while I traveled for work. I was so relieved that Louie was well taken care of and happy when my son was at work! He typically doesn’t like other dogs and Tatyana appropriately introduced him slowly to her dog and they became buddies. Louie looked forward going to her house and he’s an anxious picky pup. I highly recommend her!!”


About: I have been around animals my entire life, mainly dogs and cats. Now as an adult I have several furry friends but find myself with extra time on my hands now that I have elementary aged kiddos. I know how important it is to find trusted and excellent care for your pets. I had a beloved Australian Cattle dog named Ellie that passed away in 2025 after a long battle with cancer and diabetes. I cared for her for 12 years up until her last breath. Our pets are family and I understand the importance of showing them as much love for their short time here with us. We are their whole world ♥️💙 I want to share my love of animals with others and give them a peace of mind that their babies are in good care. I live in a neighborhood with quick access to a lot of locations. I have a lot of time during the day to visit your furry friends! I have a large backyard and safe neighborhood with sidewalks. I have a large home with many levels and can create a calm and safe space if needed to slowly acclimate your pet.
“Payton was wonderful! I needed a sitter for the day, kind of last minute. She accommodated me, communicated well, provided updates, and had Bernie come home happy and tired :) It was very clear she loves dogs :)”
