Marlyn was great, per usual! Had gotten some surprise buckeye football tickets and needed a spur of the moment dog sitter for the day. Only one person came to mind in this panic and that was Marlyn. She has watched our sweet Stella before and did such a great job. So much so she didn’t want to come home haha. Marlyn sent pictures and kept us posted the entirety of the day which always puts us at ease. 11/10 ✊🏽

Jennifer did a great job with Stella. She came through for a last minute walk that we needed. She was very thoughtful and attentive about Stella's care.

I gave the wrong address by mistake, and Rachel still took the time to go to the correct one to let my dog out. She truly went above and beyond, and I’m incredibly grateful.

Samantha is great! She took a last minute booking to walk our dog. My husband was out of town and I work long hours, and it was so nice to come home to a content and exercised dog. Her taking care of our dog was great peace of mind knowing she wouldn’t be home alone all day! ☺️

About: My 14yo Dachshund-mix has been in my family since her puppy years, and in her old age I wanted to maximize her health-span/quality of life. I walk her every day, make her food, and keep her strong with the occasional wrestling match. (: I have quite a wide range of availability, only working part time for the time being. I'm always hitting parks around me so your dog is in for some adventure! My apartment complex has a fenced in dog park to burn some energy in and possibly socialize. If your dog likes to run in the range of 2+ miles, I'm always looking for a jogging buddy. (:

Our dog Nessa can take a minute to warm up to new people, but seemed to like Grace from the start. When they got back from their 1st walk she had the zoomies all around the living room! Looking forward to working with Grace on our next overnight trip!

She went out of her way to find ways to help our 17-year-old dog. By helping him, he left his back legs and used a wagon to let him be outside

My rescue dog is often scared with new people and while just stay put behind the couch. Libby tried her best and was very patient trying to get her out to go potty. Even though things didn’t go the way we wanted, I appreciate the extra time she took to try.

About: Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve worked with playful puppies, shy rescues, and older dogs who need a slower, more gentle approach. I’m especially patient and attentive, whether that means reinforcing basic training, sticking to a detailed routine, or just giving extra cuddles and reassurance. What makes me different is how much I truly treat every pet like family. I don’t just “watch” pet, I bond with them. I pay close attention to their behavior, energy, and comfort so they feel secure and loved while you’re away. I am currently a graduate student doing all online classes, so my schedule can quite be flexible! I have reliable transportation as well. I only have hour long workouts that can be moved to whatever time preferred. I provide care exclusively in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow all care instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or specific preferences, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. Safety is always a top priority. I’m careful to secure doors and entry points to prevent escapes, keep the environment clean and hazard-free, and respect any household rules you have in place. I also pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and well-being so I can quickly notice if anything seems off.

About: I have had a dog growing up ever since I was a little girl. I have always puppy sat for past neighbors and family members and treat them as my own! I love dogs, always have and now have my own Bernese mountain dog and chocolate lab! Very available and flexible with time to help care for your fur babies! I can provide as many potty breaks as needed- also have a dog park within our apartment neighborhood! As always I will treat any home I enter with the greatest respect and caution and will welcome mine to any dog I dog sit!

About: I’ve worked at a vet clinic in my hometown for the past 5 years so I have lots of animal handling and care giving experience! I’m a senior at Otterbein and just applied to vet school, so I’m looking for some extra experience and hours during the school year. As a college student athlete, my weekly schedule is very busy so I am more available on the weekends and early mornings before class. I do not currently have pets at school, but I do love when I get to visit my two dogs back at home occasionally! I have two dogs of my own so I’m used to feeding them, taking them on walks, taking care of them, and of course giving them lots of love!

About: My husband and I have been taking care of a variety of dog breeds and ages for many years. From friends, neighbors, coworkers, and even our daughters' pup. My husband and I are both retired so at least one of us is home majority of the time. This allows us to give your pup the attention, time, and care they deserve. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your pup to run around. We love to go on walks as well, weather permitting.

Regan was so helpful and her open availability on such a short notice was great! She communicated every step of the way and took many photos of my boy so I could see how happy he was to have a friend to play with!

We’ve had a wonderful experience with Lauren. Communication has been excellent from the start, and she has gone above and beyond helping us navigate life with a new puppy. I especially appreciate how attentive she is to behaviors, routines, and any concerns they notice, always keeping us informed and offering thoughtful feedback. It’s clear they genuinely care about our pup’s wellbeing and development. Reliable, observant, and incredibly caring — highly recommend!
