Aine is super nice and attentive to the animals. She’s been sending frequent updates on her drop ins and even befriended my very reclusive cat quickly. Will definitely have Aine watch her again in the future!

About: I’ve worked with rescue dogs for several years, which has given me experience with puppies, seniors, and nervous dogs with different needs and personalities. I’m comfortable with giving medications if needed and helping reinforce things like crate and potty training. My main focus is always patience and making sure each pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. I take the time to really learn each pet’s personality so I can meet them where they’re at and build trust at their pace. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for in my day-to-day life! I’m organized and make it a priority to give each pet the attention and care they need while maintaining a consistent schedule. Even with classes starting up in the fall, I’ll still have the flexibility to provide reliable care and keep up with each pet’s routine. When caring for pets, my priority is keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow all care instructions and make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, affection, and care. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free experience where pets can feel relaxed, happy, and well cared for in the comfort of their familiar surroundings.

About: I have cared for my own pets for ten years, and I began my pet sitting business at age 14. I absolutely love working with animals. I travel a lot, but love to work as much as possible when I am home! During that time, I am available pretty much 24/7 for pet care. I believe that communication is incredibly important, especially when you are entrusting your beloved pet to a stranger. I always message the owner with any concerns or updates.

When going for walks just around the neighborhood I like to add just a little running to get those heartbeats pumping. With check-ins I'm available to do about 3-4 times a day if needed, I am also willing to give medicine if your pet requires it. I'm flexible when it comes to schedules an am always willing to work with you so you an your pet get the best service provided. If you have any questions or concerns I will be more than happy to address it, just shoot me a message an I'll get back to you within 24-48hrs It's something that I have always wanted to do, and I am willing to rearrange and schedule pet care and walking as needed for my client's pets. In my own home, I make sure that my cats are well fed, exercised, groomed, and up to date on their routine vet visits and vaccines to ensure they are healthy and happy. In my client's home, I make sure that the animal is comfortable with me in any and all situations. I ensure that they are also fed, given medications if needed, exercised, and loved all in a visit.

I asked to drop in and let my 90lb Lab out during lunch times. She sent pics and updated me on how he was doing. She did a great job and I know gave my doggie some extra loving while we were gone. Absolutely will recommend to anyone and will request her again!

Hands down the BEST rover we’ve had. She did an amazing job with checking in that included photos and a synopsis each time she dropped in to check on my dogs. On the last day, she cleaned up by vacuuming and sweeping the floors so we could come home to a clean place. I really appreciate that a lot. Isabel is very responsive and on top of her game when it comes to taking care of dogs. We will definitely be using Isabel again and ONLY Isabel. 5 stars!!!

About: I've owned dogs all of my life and can provide excellent care of your dogs. They will get plenty of love and play time as well. I currently work from home and will be able to give your dogs plenty of attention. They will fit right in with us in our home. My dog is allowed to go outside on the leash because he is old and does not go very far anymore, but I can keep your pets on a leash while in my care. I can also crate your dog.

About: I have had dogs at home my whole childhood, where I had my first exposure to taking care of them. I have been partially responsible for my childhood dog's care for about 7 years. More recently, I have been a trainer for future service dogs through the organization 4 Paws for Ability. I have had formal training on how to care for and do training with puppies, adult dogs, and service dogs. My professional experience in taking care of dogs started about 2 years ago. For my first year of this I had full time responsibility of a service dog in training named Curry. I trained Curry from 12 weeks old to 1 year old, when he was accepted into the Advanced Training program at the 4 Paws facility! Any dog that I care for is properly supervised to ensure their safety and happiness. If you wish, I also training exercises while your dog is in my home. I am currently in medical school at wright state and usually have class for 3-5 hours on weekdays. I am otherwise flexible and available on some weekends. I will care for your pet by giving them lots of attention and snuggles. I will make sure that all of the dog's needs are met and take them for walks according to their energy levels.

About: I’m a caring and patient animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with pets. I treat every pet like family and focus on being dependable, professional, and fun. I’ve owned three dogs and a cat over the past 20 years so I understand that every pet has a unique personality. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. I work full-time but have availability in late afternoons to evening (3pm and later) Mon-Fri and all day Sat/Sun, for services like dog walking and drop-in visits for any type of pet. I’m happy to follow any special routines, administer medications as instructed, and send regular photo/text updates while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and becoming a trusted part of your pet’s care routine! I work during the weekdays until late afternoon. I’m available most week nights and weekends. My kids are in college, so I’m looking for something enjoyable to do on the side. I would be able to care for your pet in your home when available or gladly come by to check on your pet or take them for a walk if needed.

About: I have worked with dogs of all shapes and sizes over the years. I love every pup, and every pup has unique behavioral and dietary needs, and they should all get the personalized treatment they deserve! As the experienced owner of a giant breed dog (and probably more in the near future), I want you to know that no matter the size and shape of your dog they will receive personalized care and fun time with me! I am retired from professional baseball, and this is a great way to spend my free time! I love dogs, and as a single guy with a ton of free time, this feels like the best use of it! I am happy to do whatever you may need to help your pet out… whether it’s a long walk during the day, an overnight stay, or just checking in and giving some treats, I’m here to help!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and helped at the local vet clinic growing up. My last dog passed away from heart failure in 2022. It’s a busy time for my sons activities so it’s not a good time to bring a full time dog into our home at this time but would love to help others out. I work full time outside the home M-TH from 8-3 and half day Fridays (occasional Fridays totally free). I am willing to be flexible with week day stays if they can manage being alone during those hours. Our yard is unfenced but I would walk or chain them out depending on owner preference. They would be treated like they were my own.

I would give 12/10 stars if I could. Carrie is the best! She does drop-in visits for our dog, and this time our cat, who *never* comes out for anyone, came out of hiding and said hello to her! Always very impressed with Carrie. She is responsive, flexible, professional, and our dog is always in the best mood whenever we get home. I cannot recommend her enough.
