“Nathan did a great job with my pup. She is wary of new people but she warmed up on our meet & greet and seemed to do just fine for his drop in visits. He sent me pictures which I really appreciated and even ventured out on a walk (although she wasn't as enthused). It's obvious he loves dogs and was very responsible and thoughtful. I would recommend him for sure. Thanks again!”

About: I have always had a dog or some type of pet! They very much are like family. I currently have 3 cats on of which who has adhd and has to take meds every day. I do have the ability to run around in dogs to get their energy out! I have a pretty flexible schedule so I can move anything around, especially if it’s a walk for the morning! If it’s afternoon, if I know within a decent timeframe, I can always make other arrangements to be able to walk your four-legged family member! At this time I am not offering in home pet sitting. I will however ensure that all safety measures that the pet family has in place are applied. For walks I always make sure to stop walking if no side walk is available when a car passes.

About: I have experience caring for cats and dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pets unique needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, or relaxing with plenty of belly rubs, I’m happy to provide personalized care that keeps them comfortable and happy. I’m experienced with feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, basic grooming like brushing, administering oral medications when needed, and following each pet’s normal routine. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive interactions to help dogs feel safe while their owners are away.Your dog’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. My current lifestyle is very adaptable, which allows me to provide dependable, personalized care for every pet. I have a flexible schedule and can easily plan my day around your pet’s routine, whether that means morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening visits. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need is something I genuinely look forward to. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, and playtime, and carefully follow any instructions you leave. I’ll also treat your home with respect and send regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring hands.

About: I have worked with dogs specifically for about 3 years and some months. I’ve done Boarding/Daycare as well as Bathing. (this is where most of my experience comes from) I’ve bathed, brushed, and even trimmed nails of dogs of all kinds and ages for 2-3 years. Even though my boarding and daycare experience is new, I did enjoy it very much and I follow instruction well as long as they are direct and clear. I have extreme patience when it comes to learning the behaviors of our pets, I know not all dogs or cats are the same and they all have their boundaries and different personalities that make them special to us and I respect that. I love cats of all breeds as well. Believe it or not as much as I have dealt with all breeds I personally LOVE the big breeds, I do not mind hair or drool! (of both cats and dogs) I also have 3 cats and a Husky who is soon to turn 4! I will admit I do not know everything again every animal is different but I am willing to learn and adapt to what you and your pets need or want. Anything to make them happy and comfortable will always be my main goal. If you have any questions or concerns plz do not hesitate to reach out!! I am working part time at a retail in fairlawn BUT I would be willing to change and adapt my schedule for the right person. Let’s talk about what you need and go from there! All of my animals have a routine in my home. My Husky will get water before his food (he won’t even touch his food before we go outside lol) after I take him out to our lil dog park (at my apt) I then give him his food , After that I go and give my cats their water and food and clean their litter boxes (and their room) Then after my husky finishes his food for exercise we go on an hour or so walk (if you have a husky you understand lol) I am very clean dependent , I do not like a messy environment I am constantly sweeping and cleaning my apt to try and keep it as clean as possible with four pets. I do crate my husky whenever I leave , we’ve been doing as such since he was a pup!

“Linda was great!! I didn't have to worry at all about my kitties. She took great care of them while we were on vacation!”

I believe in the importance of enrichment activities as well as the good ole belly rubs. Whatever the pet is in need of I am happy to help make their day brighter.

I have a2 year old Beagle Boston terrier who gets a few hours of physical activity and mental enrichment a day before winding down for snuggles and love. We spend time on training and puzzles as well as engaging walks.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life. I’m currently 19, so 19 years of loving dogs all sizes and breeds. I’ve actually dog sat for 3 family friends here and there for about 5 years and would love to do the same for someone else who may need it as well!! I’m currently in school to become a vet technician as well! I love animals any kind and would love to get to love your animals just like they’re my own!! I’m currently working part time tropical smoothie! However, I can attend to your animal whenever they may need within my availability! I really would love to go on walks no matter the weather and even play with your pup. I love running and am very active so I would be the same with your pup if they allow me! Just gives me more cardio in the end lol! I would love to just hangout and play with your pup all day!! I do not care for pets in my own home. However, I will do my best to accommodate to your home and what i’ll need to do to take care of your pup the best!

About: I have been taking care of dogs for years, and have never met one I dislike. I have two of my own and would love to take care of yours! I just graduated high school and am home most of the day. I go out for a couple hours at a time, but will be back in time to let the dogs out. I have a fenced in backyard with two golden at home that love to play with new friends. I have a crate at home if you want your dog to be crated as well.

About: I can sit and board during any holiday! I am new to the site, so that is why I do not have any reviews. I try to respond in less than thirty minutes. In the evening, I usually respond within a few minutes. I walk on a daily basis personally and am used to taking dogs on walks at least a few times a day. I have worked with all different breeds and do my research on breed specifications before taking care of any animal. I have helped taken care of animals that have to receive oral and injections daily. I have taken care of all ages of animals from babies to seniors. I have owned dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, and rabbits. I currently do not own any animals, so that I can focus on your pets. I do usually send updates/pictures during the time your pet is with me, so that you know how they are doing I work as a nurse full time Monday through Friday. I started work usually no earlier than 745 am and am done no later than 5 pm. I have an hour long lunch break. I board on weekends so that I can be with your animal 24/7. I can dog sit throughout the week and dogs will receive a morning and evening walk as well as a lot of love and affection. I can do dog walking in the evening and if you live in the Fairlawn/Montrose area, I can do drop in visits between 12 pm-1 pm. I keep my availability up to date on this calendar as well. I live in a two bedroom apartment, but I live near a dog park I can take them to and can take them out every hour or two during the weekend if the board with me. I would take them on at least one walk minimum whether staying at my apartment or taking care of them at yours. The walks can vary from an half an hour to an hour or more depending on the dog and how your dog is feeling. I always ask their feeding schedule and an dietary restrictions. At my home, I have intellectual toys as well as just typical toys. If allowed, dogs and cats are more than welcome to sleep in bed with me. I allow animals on my furniture and have locks on cabinets to ensure they cannot get anything to harm them. I keep treats and food at my apartment. For walks, I have a hands free leash that goes around waist, so that way there is not a chance that the leash slips out of my hands.

“Carolyn did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats while we were out of town! We were hesitant because we had always had family members watch our cats and had never used a service like this but after the great experience, we won't hesitate to use Carolyn again in the future! We appreciated the pictures she sent us and she communicated well every time she stopped by. We were able to enjoy our trip without stressing about how our cats were doing because we knew they were well taken care of. Thanks Carolyn!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. Grew up with horses, dogs, cats, chickens, donkeys etc. I have always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy being that trusted person with others fur babies. I truly see pets as family and treat them with the same care, patience, and respect I would give any person. I will treat your dog like family — because that’s exactly what they are. I currently have a very flexible schedule and would truly love to make caring for your fur baby a special part of my daily routine. I am available for dog walking or in-home care services. While I can’t bring pets into my home due to having a cat, I’m happy to care for them in the comfort of their own home. Being in a familiar environment often helps pets feel more relaxed and secure. I will follow your instructions closely and make sure your home, gates, and fencing are always secure while your pet is in my care.

“Great care and communication.”
