Hey there! I’m Gloria Voelker, owner and operator of The Sitting Dog Pet care. Pets are family, and leaving your fur babies in someone else’s care can be a tough decision. That’s why I hope you’ll find my services to be exactly what you’re looking for. I continue building not only a stellar professional reputation in pet care and behavior, but bring you a breadth of animal care experience and knowledge. I utilize hands-on experience and knowledge earned through my Bachelors in Psychology and countless hours working alongside certified dog trainers.

Interacting with animals has always been a part of my life. My experience includes working at pet stores, dog daycares, and coordinating adoptions with an Ohio animal shelter. Additionally, I provided services on Rover for several years before branching off on my own.

As a teen, I was mentored in dog training and became a certified handler with Therapy Dog International. I have witnessed and implemented force-free, science-backed behavioral training methods and trust these for animals with which I work.

I hold additional experience with cats as well as exotics, including small animals, fish, and reptiles.

I hold in my heart several pets who have now crossed the Rainbow Bridge, but at home I have .3 cats: Hazel, Harlow, and Littles. I strive to ensure both my pets–and yours–are happy and healthy. It’s not just my passion, it’s what our pets deserve!
Thanks again for being here, and I look forward to treating your pets like my own.
