Regan was an amazing pet sitter. The first time she came her key wouldn’t work and she came multiple times to keep trying and for the locksmith. She stayed extra long with my kitties, played with them, gave thorough updates and lots of pictures. We are so grateful for everything she did and more, it was so reassuring when we were gone for a week!

This is the second time Ashley has watched my cat for me and she is just so great. She spends so much time playing, grooming, and loving on him. It's so great to know he's in such great hands while I'm gone- she really cares for him like he's her own!

About: Dog walking and pet sitting was my first job growing up, helping neighbors and friends with their pets. I’ve always had a love for animals and grew up around dogs, so spending time with them comes naturally to me. I believe pets are family, and I take extra care to treat each one like my own, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I currently have multiple days off mid-week which allows me the flexibility to help out while you are at work on out of town. Currently I’m not available to host at my home, although I do have two cats, and had one dog until she passed away last year; they all run a tight ship.

Second time booking and once again couldn’t have went any better than it did. She leaves great updates, always takes care of my kitty and makes it so I can have an enjoyable vacation knowing my princess is being well taken care of. I will continue to book with her for all my future trips

About: Hii ! my name is Maasha ( Pronounced like the month of May and ah sha) or Maemae ! I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs. I have a 6-year-old Shih Tzu named Paris, and she’s the sweetest girl ever. I also spend time at dog shelters playing with and caring for dogs, which has helped me get comfortable with different personalities and energy levels. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I can assure you that I’m very patient and attentive. I always make sure your fur babies feel comfortable and safe with me. I’m used to feeding, walking, giving medication if needed, and spending quality time with dogs. Pet care fits really well into my routine because I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, where I can stay with your pet and keep them company. I make sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention they need, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know your pet is in good hands. I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for pets. I always follow your instructions and keep your pet on their normal routine so they feel comfortable. I also have a large trail park near my place for walks if approved. I’ll make sure your pet is safe and happy

About: I have owned, fostered, and volunteered with animals for over 10 years. Not only that, I have experience with providing animal therapy in a clinical setting for the last two years. Dogs and cats hold a big piece of my heart and I genuinely love to accommodate to their needs. I have experience raising puppies and kittens, taking care of elderly cats and dogs, and dogs and cats that have behavioral problems. I am familiar on how to care for dogs that have aggressive tendencies, anxiety, and hip problems. Likewise, I have experience handling cats with aggression and timidness. I am a small business owner and have days where I work from home. I could use that time to not only make extra money, but spend time with dogs and cats as well! I make sure to provide as much affection, activity, and attention to my pets to the best of my ability. Which I ensure the same treatment is given to your pets too. Depending on what service you would like me to provide, I am more than happy to go on long walks with your dog, offer enrichment, or maybe you have a lapdog that just needs a temporary companion. I am dependable and have the experience and genuine care and trust to ensure your pet has the best experience possible.

I have taken care of kittens and puppies and have a golden doodle of my own. I am willing to feed, play, change litter, cat/dog sit, and treat them as if they were my own. I will not be offering pet boarding due to living in an apartment on campus. Currently I live in Westerville, Ohio, so I will be offering services to those in the surrounding community. I am a responsible young adult that loves taking care of your pets. Walking, Running, Playing, Feeding, etc I'm your sitter! I am a full time nurse and work Monday through Friday. I am available Monday-Friday evenings for walks or drop ins and weekends for house sitting. I love taking care of your animals and meeting new people! My goldendoodle is my emotional support animal so I would treat your animals the same. Typically I bring my doodle with me to house sit as long as I have permission from the owner.

About: I am in my third year at Otterbein University studying Zoology/Conservation, Biology, and Environmental Science! I have lots of animal care experience ranging from puppies to elderly dogs and understand just how unique each pets experience is. Communication is key to understanding each pet and pet parent’s unique needs. I have completed a year of service dog training for buckeyes service dogs up in Powell and love any chance I can to help out with pets! I am currently working part time as a manager but I fortunately make my own schedule, so with enough notice I can make anything work! Additionally, I am a student but my schedule is pretty flexible and I have lots of breaks in the day! I can make most days work depending on how much notice I am given! I am very comfortable with whatever is requested of me in the clients home in regards to pet care, I do not have the correct living arrangements to house a pet right now, but am more than happy to help out in any other way!

Mirelsa is the most amazing pet sitter we’ve ever had for our pups! She sends the most detailed updates after each visit, sends a ton of photos that shows how happy and well taken care of they are, and above all, she loves and cares for them like they are her own which is PRICELESS! She not only took incredibly care of out pups, but she also cleaned off our deck when it rained/snowed so that no mud got tracked inside, she vacuumed the house, straightened up all the puppy blankets on the sofas, took out our trash, brought in packages, and even raced over to our house while she was at work when we had a bit of an emergency! She’s an absolute angel and we appreciate her so so much! We only feel comfortable leaving to go out of town when we know Mirelsa is watching our babies. ❤️
