About: I enjoy spending time with cats and dogs and have been happy to help many family members, friends and clients with their beloved furry friends. I’ve tended to special needs animals as well, giving medicines, special dietary needs and physical needs. Whether you have cats or dogs, or both, they will be loved and cared for while you’re away.

About: Hello! My name is Amber. I’m currently available to pet sit in Lima and surrounding areas! Dogs are one of my great loves in life. I previously worked at a no-kill shelter in Columbus, Ohio where I worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am comfortable with many temperaments—I haven’t yet met an anxious dog who didn’t warm up to me quickly—but if your dog has any aggression issues, I am not comfortable accepting the request. If needed, I can administer oral medication; I do not have experience with needles. I am a non-smoker, non-drinker, who adapts quickly to new surroundings. I am generally pretty quiet, and I always respect my surroundings. Just like I treat your pets like my own, the same goes for your home. I always make sure it is clean and well kept. By trusting me with the care of your home and your pets, you are giving me the opportunity to do what I love, so there is no question that I will go above and beyond what is expected of me. If you are interested in discussing an agreement further or wish to see additional references, please contact me. I am happy to answer any questions you may have! I am insured by Pet Sitters Associates. I currently have a flexible work schedule, so I am able to do drop-ins, walks, and overnight sits. I try to accommodate schedule requests as best I can! I follow any verbal or written instructions I have been provided. I often send updates to pet owners. I’m a big fan of sending selfies with pets!

About: Most familiar with cat care all the way from little kittens to senior cats. I do dog walks and dropin visits on the Wag app and have a perfect 5 star rating for every job I have done and am looking to expand my clientele here. I absolutely love being able to care for pets and see how happy they are when we go for walks or play fetch. I also dogsit my family's golden doodle who is learning tricks and has anxiety around people. I have a part time job and do contract work on my own schedule so I can fit pet care around my current schedule easily. I intend your home space to be the same as you left it when you return from your trip with a happy pet waiting for you.

About: I have cared for multiple kinds of pets including dogs, cats, reptiles, guinea pigs, etc. I have worked at two veterinary clinics as well as a pet store.

So as of now, my time is completely free to care for your pets! My services will take place at my client's home. Depending on if there are any specific directions, I will care for your pets properly and do what you request.

About: Hello everyone! I’m happy to be of service for you and your animals. I have many years of experience with dogs. I grew up with animals in my childhood home and am very comfortable with animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I have trained, raised and cared for several dogs myself. Daisy was a golden retriever, Zoe was my golden rough collie mutt, Molly was my 10-lb mutt, Charlie was my very sick mutt, Jess was my hyper husky blue heeler mutt, and now I have Frida. Frida is a sweet girl who loves to work. She is a border collie Australian Shepard mutt who came with me from ND. We are working on learning tricks and trying our hand at herding. Yes when I am with your dog we will work on basic obedience, manners, games, and tricks if you should like. I also have some experience with cats and would love more experience. I fostered a very sick kitten last year and have been around lots of friends’ and families’ cats. If there should be other animals that I have not worked with before, I would be happy to learn how to do so. And I would take my time to ensure I follow your care instructions thoroughly. Looking forward to helping you while you are away! Services in your home - you can rest assured knowing you have an extremely responsible and dependable person in your space. I will be respectful of your things and wishes. I will take extra care to follow your instructions precisely. I do have a dog of my own, which presents a unique opportunity. I can offer you a significantly lower rate if you want me to stay in your home and you allow Frida to be with me. Otherwise she will be kenneled in the car while I am in your home (if you are wanting me to spend the night in your home). I realize most people will not want this, but I wanted to throw it out there as an option for you. Services in my home - Dogs are allowed on the furniture and bed. They will have structure, routine, and lots of love. Please bring your kennel. If you do not have one, I have a wire kennel that they will use while here. I do kennel Frida when I have to leave the house and cannot take her with me. Your dog will enjoy lots of play time with Frida. We have a six foot fence and dogs will always be supervised while we are outside. Frida and I also really enjoy our walks and your dog would be one of the pack. Yes, I do require a meet and greet to learn all about your animal before I will accept a booking. Thank you for understanding. Love, Erin and Frida 💕 I am currently working part time, so lots of time to watch your animals and love on them. I would love to be able to watch your pets full time. So I am working on filling up my calendar. Let’s see where this can take me. Currently, Frida and I walk daily and it would be awesome to take a dog friend with us! Also, I am currently watching pets for people out of town. I go over in the morning to say hello to the cats, change water, fill food, clean litter box, and make sure they have optimal viewing spots by the windows to watch the birds. Then I return at night for play time, water plants, and make sure I repeat everything from the morning. I’d love to care for yours while you are away too! In my home I have a six foot fenced yard and a border collie policing the yard haha. I have one large wire kennel and one medium sized wire kennel that will house your dog should I need to run a quick errand. When I am in your home, I will be responsible and respectful. I will follow your house rules and keep your babies safe, loved, and cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 4 when I got my first dog. I currently have two cats and would love a dog but my schedule won't provide me enough time to take proper care of one. I am great with training puppies and giving medications. I’m currently a Preschool Intervention Specialist and have my own special education preschool classroom through Lima City Schools. I currently teach August-May. My availability mainly opens up during the summer but love to help out during the school year around my teaching contract. I look forward to working with you!

During the school year as long as your schedule works around my teaching contract, I will be able to help you out as much as I can! I have plenty of experience with small, medium, and big dogs. I would prefer to come to you but in the need to have your pet at my house, I am able to crate dogs as needed at my home as my house has an extra room. Plus my cats are very friendly or just stay to themselves so your animals will be in great care.

About: We have a home where I have cared for and given a loving family to dogs and cats for years. We believe in a safe and playful environment for all animals upbringing. I only work part time and also work from home so I am able to pretty much dedicate all my attention to the animals when they need it. I have a fenced yard in my home where I can keep the pups stimulated with play time occasionally. If I have other dogs I'll make sure they get along but if need be separated. I mostly wfh and am trying to accommodate busy people by making last minute bookings so I'm pretty much available whenever it is convenient for you. In my home, I make sure to provide plenty of love and attention to all pets in my care. This includes feeding them on a regular schedule, providing access to fresh water, and giving them opportunities for exercise and play. I also make sure to keep the living space clean and comfortable for them. When providing services like house visits or house sitting, I follow the same routine as in my own home and also follow any specific instructions or guidelines provided by the pet's owner. If the pet is staying with me for an extended period of time, like during a boarding service, I also make sure to take them on regular walks and provide them with mental stimulation through activities. As mentioned, I have a fenced yard and able to put them on a playpen for their safety and comfort if necessary.

Emily D.
“We recently had the pleasure of having Emily stay at our home to care for Ben, our Lhasa-Tese, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met her, we felt confident and at ease leaving our home and Ben in her capable hands. Emily went above and beyond in her care for Ben. She not only ensured he was well-fed and taken for regular walks, but she also spent quality time playing with him, which made a significant difference in his happiness. It was clear that she genuinely cared for Ben as if he were her own. In addition to her excellent pet care, Emily was incredibly respectful of our home. She kept the house clean and tidy, and we appreciated her attention to detail in ensuring all doors and windows were securely locked. Knowing that our home and beloved dog were in safe hands allowed us to fully enjoy our time away without any worries. We highly recommend Emily to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. Her dedication and love for animals are truly commendable, and we are grateful for the peace of mind she provided us. Thank you, Emily, for your outstanding service!”
