About: I have always loved taking care of animals and playing with them. I have always taken care of family friend's pets while they were away and would love to do this for other people through this. I love to make sure new pets I take care of feel as comfortable as possible with me. I work during the day but am always home by the latest 4 but usually 2:30. I will always work around your animals and make them my absolute priority while taking care of them. I am super flexible so we can always work together to figure out the best schedule that works best for you and your animals. I have pets of my own so I understand potential dangers to them. When I watch your pets I will treat them like my own and care for them how I would like my pets to be cared for. They will be my priority and I will try to make them feel as safe and comfortable with me as possible.
About: I work from home full-time and my husband and I absolutely love dogs, so we’d be happy to help care for yours 🤗. I grew up with a rescue terrier mutt and now my fiancé and I have another two of our own. In my opinion, rescue terriers have some of the biggest personalities, so I’ve dealt with it all :) I’m also a volunteer dog walker for the humane society, so I’m used to interacting with and handling a wide variety of dogs of all ages and sizes. We live on a fully fenced half acre, so there is lots of room for your pup(s) to run around! Since I work from home, I’m able to let the dogs in and out of the house frequently. I am happy to talk to you about what works best for your dog. I have a large yard that is fully fenced with a 5’ fence, ensuring that nobody will jump out! Your dog can run around and play with mine to its heart’s content :)

“Megan did a fantastic job checking in our cat once/day and watering our outdoor plants. She was punctual, sent us pictures and kept the cat areas tidy. I will definitely call on her again! ?”
About: I’ve had dogs most of my life. Dogs are furry bundles of unconditional love, and they’ve always brought me a lot of joy. My first dog was a German Shepherd named Duchess. I was 5, and I’ve loved dogs ever since. I’m semi-retired and living my dream life at the campground here in Columbus. I’m a mental health counselor, singer/songwriter and musician, and occasionally a radio personality doing both music and talk radio shows, so my schedule is completely flexible. I’ve also been a rideshare driver for 7+ years. I’m available any hour. I need to be gone 3-4 hours during the day to take care of my personal business. I CAN’T WALK DOGS because I have a bad back and bad knee. All of my families have had fenced yards so it hasn’t been an issue. Also SMOKE FREE homes only. I will follow the owner’s wishes as to how they want their dogs cared for in their home. Having detailed written instructions helps me do this. Non-smoking homes only.
“I booked 4 drop-ins with Courtney over the course of two days and was not disappointed. She was punctual and sent lots of pictures/videos of each visit. I came home to a happy dog which was awesome!”

Elisabeth H.Star Sitter
“Lisa is the first person I think of when I need a caregiver for my little fluff ball. You can tell she really loves animals. She even asked if he had any special needs or had any behaviors to be aware of. I love that she has a large fenced in back yard for him to run around in. My dog feels right at home in Lisa's care. If you're still trying to figure out who you'd feel comfortable caring for your dog, from one pet owner to another, trust me when I say Lisa is your gal.”
