Olivia was wonderful! She did a great job taking care of our cats while we were away. Communication was great and based on the daily updates we got, our normally shy cats loved her visits. Will be booking with her in the future!

Lindsay looked after our large breed dog and our cat during a recent vacation. We did 2 drop in visits per day and one walk per day which was perfect. Lindsay followed the instructions, modified as needed and generally took wonderful care of both of my girls. Both Pets have nuances that Lindsay understood and worked with and around. Lindsay is professional, On time, and communicative. I was able to leave for vacation knowing that my pets had the best care possible! As much as I would love to gate-keep this amazing woman, she is worth her weight in gold. I would also recommend booking some pre-vacation walks so that your sitter and animals get to know each other - and you can get to know your sitter. By walk #2, my very shy dog was showing Lindsay so much affection. Lindsay was wonderful with her right from the start. Book Lindsay - you wont be disappointed!! She is amazing ( and I'm picky!!!!) - 10 out of 10 wonderful!!

About: I volunteered with a local animal shelter all through my college career, and only stopped when I neeed to move. I have worked with animals that are nervous of people, animals that love people, seniors and puppies! I am also familiar with basic dog training. I'm working from home so I'm always available to walk, sit, nap, or play with your pup! Boarding will never be a problem so long as I'm home, and I have a car available for home visits. I have my own dog (Chihuahua mix!!) that LOVES other dogs and will play until they both drop. I have a crate available for small dogs and an area of the apartment sectioned off that's safe for dogs to roam or chill if they need alone time. When visiting your home, I will treat it like my own and respect any house rules.

Took very good care of my Suki. Checked on her food and water levels and played with her. Noticed when Suki started digging a hole near the fence and made sure to cover what Suki was trying to get to! Thank you so much!!

Both Savannah and Silas were awesome! I knew from when we met them, they were going to be a perfect match and they in fact were. My dogs took to them both very well, and I felt very comfortable while I was out of the country, knowing that my dogs were in loving and responsible hands . Thank you both :)!

About: I have four years of hands on experience as a kennel technician, caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. I specialize in maintaining clean, safe environments, providing enrichment, and offering plenty of love and attention. I’m confident handling puppies, senior pets, and administering basic medications, ensuring every pet feels comfortable and cared for while their family is away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine as I currently work as a Lead Kennel Technician. I dedicate mornings and evenings to feeding, walking, and engaging with pets, and I am available for pet sitting and drop-in visits during my off days /hours. I enjoy spending quality time with animals every day. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm, welcoming environment and follow any specific instructions provided by pet parents. In a client’s home, I ensure pets remain in familiar surroundings and maintain their routines. If pets are in my care, I provide secure spaces, enrichment activities, and close supervision to make sure they are happy and safe.

About: I’ve cared for animals for years, including my own pets and those of friends and family. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I understand how important routine and consistency are, and I always aim to provide dependable, attentive care. I’m available for the weekends and some week nights! I’m available for boarding and walks to make sure your dog is very comfortable! I live in a clean, spacious apartment with easy access to outdoor areas for walks and bathroom breaks. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I prioritize regular walks and supervised outdoor time to keep pets active and comfortable. I maintain a calm, safe environment and always follow each pet’s routine and any specific instructions closely!

Lia was very communicative and left great visit notes for every visit with our cats, as well as sending videos. We were gone for 3 weeks for our honeymoon, but felt reassured with Lia checking in on them. When we came back, the cats were in good health and spirits, and everything was taken care of. We would recommend Lia again if the need arose and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone else!

About: I grew up with a reactive black lab, so I know how to handle leash pulling and how to deescalate and prevent fights. In her old age, I learned to accommodate her failing joints. I’ve been trained at the Licking County Humane Society in Ohio as a volunteer dog walker, which has well equipped me to understand and respond respectfully to dog language. I further pursue this knowledge by reading about how dogs communicate with us, and by observing and analyzing their behavior both in real life and online. This will be my primary commitment, so I can easily cater to your schedule to fit your pets needs. Mornings, evenings, weekends, whatever you need, except Thursdays :) I will take great care to follow your instructions and respect the rules of your home and needs of your animal(s). I cannot accept boarding in my own home at the moment.

About: I absolutely love spending time with furry friends! I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, and even some shy rescues. I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, playing fetch at the park, and giving all the belly rubs they deserve. I’m responsible, punctual, and make sure each pet gets personalized attention and affection while you’re away. I’m currently a college student with a flexible class schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with pets throughout the week. I usually have mornings and evenings free, perfect for walks, playtime, and cuddles. Taking care of animals is a great way for me to relax and recharge between classes—it honestly makes my day better! I make sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live just a short walk away from a beautiful dog park where pets can get plenty of safe, supervised outdoor time. I always keep dogs on a leash during walks and pay close attention to their comfort and behavior. At home, I have two super friendly resident pets who love meeting new friends and are great at helping other pets feel relaxed and welcome. I keep my space clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with lots of cozy spots for rest and play. Your furry friend will be treated just like family here! 🐶💛

Kaylah is great! This was my first booking with her and I found her to be kind, reliable and attentive to detail. She was also very flexible when I had some unexpected changes to my schedule, which I appreciated. I am new to the area and have some travel coming up in the future - it's a relief to know that someone like Kaylah is nearby to take care of my kitties while I am away.

About: I love dogs and grew up with them! Though I don't have the space for them now, I've been missing some puppy playtime! Both of my parents are vets as well, so I'm also pretty well versed in all things pet care! I do work full-time, but a lot of my job can be done from home depending on the amount of notice I have before discussing that with my boss. That being said my weekends are pretty open as well as the occasional monday. I typically work from home every other monday! I love all animals! Growing up I had 2 dogs and then foster failed 2 cats! Those 2 cats currently live with my parents, but I'm bringing them up here when I move into my own place. Both of my roommates also have cats!

We needed assistance at the last minute and Gary was our knight in shining armor agreeing to drop in and walk Lily at all the set times we had requested! He even left us a daily list of her “activities”. We really appreciated his help and would definitely recommend him to others!
