About: I'm a dog trainer, AKC evaluator, and Red Cross‑certified in dog & cat first aid. With over two years at a pet store and experience as a professional bather, I know animals inside and out. Drop-in visits include a 30–45 min walk or play session, a quick training tip, and of course all the love I have to give. I specialize in puppies (potty training), reactive dogs, and teaching positive reinforcement. Your pup will get skilled, safe, and high quality care—just like family. I work as a dog trainer and make my own schedule, so everything is very flexible. I typically don’t work Sundays and teach group classes Wednesday evenings and Saturdays between 10-2pm. Other than that and the sporadic private lessons, my schedule is pretty open. Because I’m a dog trainer I know all the ins and outs of dog behavior and how to act accordingly. My broad knowledge from working at a pet store also gives me insight on things like diet, proper living conditions, care, and administering medication. I’m also cat and dog first aid certified through the American Red Cross.

About: I am proud too say that I have loved being a volunteer in the past at the local animal shelter here in Muskingum county not so much anymore do to changes more recently I’ve also grew up in a loving household with a big family with numerous pets from dogs to cats etc. aside from being a mother one one my other passions is caring for all pets not just the ones with in my house hold!!🦮🐈⬛🐰❤️ I am a stay at home mother and am available too take care of tour pet needs 5 days a week Monday-Friday 6-11 am and 11 am-3:00 pm Depending on the nature of your need I can guarantee weather it be a dog crate a locked fence a designated area of you property inside or out you have no worries I am the one I will double triple check everything and confirm prior to leaving each visit guarantee.

About: My family always owned pets and I'm the only person that my old roommate trusts to dogsit for them. I love the company of pets. I work fully remote from anywhere with cellular coverage or WiFi and only have rare times when I absolutely have to be in meetings so I have a lot of flexibility to make time for other things. If it's okay with you, I would like to let your pet free to roam around your house just as if you were home. I love petting them and having chats while I'm working. I always set reminders for the meal times and potty breaks you request to make sure they are pampered as much as you want. No sharing of human food, only their approved diest and treats.

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life! We’ve had many different breeds of dogs growing up (Australian shepherds, a Jack Russell Terrier, Beagle, and mini poodle). I’m also the go to pet sitter when my friends and family go out of town and have watched Golden Doodles, an American Bully, and Yorkie’s. I have experience with different breeds, sizes, personalities, and ages! :) Currently, I work part time (3 days a week) so I have a ton of morning/afternoon availability to care for and play with your pups! :) I’m able to do a variety of tasks in order to help take care of your fur baby :) I am able to walk your fur babies during the day, as well as feed them, bathe them (if needed), play with them, and just check in on them. If there’s any service I didn’t list that you may need, just ask and I more than likely am able to do it :)

About: I've had dogs growing up, five of them being German shepherds and the other four being a lab and two mutts and a dachshund. We currently have two German shepherds and I walk them a ton and I spend a lot of time taking care of them, and then we have a dachshund who I just rescued from the place I work at. The place I work does dog boarding/daycare/training. I am a kennel tech so I just take care of all the boarding and daycare doggies. And on the weekends I also take care of all the training dogs when/if the trainers are away. I have worked there for a year and absolutely love it. I have had to deal with so many different dogs and their personalities and I've definitely learned to have a ton of patience with the job. I have been working in general since I was 14. I started at some neighbouring farms, doing farm work so I could ride their horses and earn some money. I then did a couple restaurant jobs and then found the place I currently work at. I have done dog sitting and cat sitting before many times, sometimes for family or friends of family who I don't know but I am happy to help out. The most I have dealt with at one time was seven dogs in total. I have watched people's dogs get trained while at work and I have been trained to use an e-collar and a prong collar so I am able to use those correctly! I really love my job, it means a lot to me I get to be in that environment and I'm depended on to keep them all safe and happy. I have early classes most days of the week, 3 days out of the week they start at 8 and end at 12, then the other two days start at 8 and end at two. I work weekends at my job but I call off whenever needed so I can dog sit At home I spend time walking the dogs mostly and hanging around the house with them. Every client I feel is different in how things are done at their home, so however you take care of your pets I'll follow

“Lacey was great! First experience with Rover and it was better than we could have ever hoped for!”


“I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”


“Emily did a great job spending time with Ivy!!! Ivy was sad when she left! We will definitely be booking more overnight stays!! Thanks!!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. I have a certification in Veterinary Assisting and am experienced in administering medications. Whatever your pets require (food, walks, play), I’ll be happy to provide! Experienced with pets of all ages and will send you pictures and videos of your pets if you’d like. I am currently a student at Muskingum University. As such, I will only be available to stay overnight on weekends, but I can work around my schedule to feed and check in on pets on weekdays. I live on campus at Muskingum University, which means I’ll be unable to care for pets in my own home. My care in your home depends on what you require for your pet. Whether you want me to check in on them briefly or spend some hours keeping them company, I will follow your orders. If possible, I like to meet with you and your pet before I start watching them so that we can go over any instructions and they can feel more comfortable around me. Depending on their personality and sociability, I am equally happy playing with them or giving them space and reading while I’m keeping them company.

About: For as long as I can remember I have been helping friends, family and neighbors with their fur babies. I love all animals and would be honored to spend time with your babies! I have done grooming, puppy training, feeding, administering medication, and giving lots of cuddles! Anything you need just ask! I currently am a stay at home dog mom so I have plenty of time to give your fur babies extra lovins and attention! I am available 24/7 and would love to help! I have a large fenced in grass backyard and over 7 acres of fields and woods to play in. I have a 3 year old fur baby myself who loves new friends and playing outside or taking naps on the couch. I have plenty of space for your fur baby to have their own space or a crate. Or they can snuggle on the couch/bed with us!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a young child and have always babysit fur babies for all my friends and family while they are out of town.

“I have known Trudy since college days, for over 20 years. She worked as a vet assistant while in college and has always had a love of animals. We even had a cat at our apartment while in college! We've taken our dogs with us camping! She took in her dog, Milo as a re-home and was able to get him off ALL of his prescription anxiety meds because what he needed was daily vigorous excersise and extra love and care and understanding. She has cats and sheep as well. As a school counselor she uses her patience and empathy skills to really get to know your pet and listen to what you, the owner needs. Trudy really has a special talent for caring for animals and I highly recommend her, you won't be disappointed with the level of quality and attention to detail.”
