House Sitting in Ashtabula

One is small sized dog, and the other is a medium sized dog. I have also been watching a family friends dogs for years. I currently am working part time. I work when I am scheduled which can be any day throughout the week. The hours I work work well with me and my dogs as I usually work 6 a.m. - 2:30 p.m., or 10 a.m. - 6:30 p.m. With that I lots of time to still take care of pets! I take my dogs for daily walks (weather permitted) and I will take the dogs into my back yard where there is a field behind me where they play. I make sure to watch them carefully. I care for other individuals pets with what they feel comfortable with.

“Geraldo was fantastic with the pups! Would definitely recommend! Our first long term stay away not using a family or friend and he did everything he could to stay in touch with us while we ere out of the country!”

“Emma is very responsible and is able to manage many tasks at once very well. Along with that, she is very good with animals and are able to care for their needs well.”

“The dogs can’t wait to hang out again! Kailyn always communicated and sent pictures took the pups on walks and hung out and made them feel special. We will definitely be using her again.”

“I've known Lisa since 2006. Pet sitting would fit her perfectly. I've observed the loving care she's given her pets and any animals that she comes across. I was there when she went through dog training classes also. She will be confident and responsible with any pet and the owners home. You and your pet will benefit greatly if she's your sitter. Sincerely Roger G.”

“You and your pets will not be disappointed by the great treatment your animals will receive while in Melissa's care! Melissa has taken to animals forever, loves to love them, walk them, bathe them, and genuinely so! You will be glad you have Melissa available!!”

“Julie is great with animals and very responsive to their needs. I trust her completely with my fur babies! I’m adopting a puppy in June, 2022 and trust Mosby in a Julie’s care. She’s reliable, punctual and tries to be as flexible as possible.”

“Kassi was outstanding with RosKoe. We had zero worries after meeting her, knowing we could attend our sons wedding without having to be concerned. Kassi sent pictures, kept us informed every day. I would recommend Kassi without hesitation. Super nice, professional, responsible and genuinely caring. Thank you again Kassi!”

About: Animals have been a big passion of mine since I was a child. I have 3 dogs of my own and I’ve always been the go to person for friends and family to dog sit. I work part time, some different hours of the week but get my schedule for 2 weeks at a time so there’s always time to figure it out/ I have basically the same schedule every week I have 3 dogs of my own. I have a crazy work schedule but get my schedule 2 weeks at a time and have basically the same schedule everytime

“We were away for 7 days and this was our first time using Rover. Our animals seemed well cared for and our home was how we left it. She sent updates and photos, which we appreciated very much! We will use her services again for future trips.”

About: I’ve had many pets my self. Several large breeds and small breeds of dogs, I’ve had birds, cats, and guinea pigs. Ive always been the one to furbaby sit for my family and groom them. Pets will always be supervised when outside. When walked I’ll take extra caution around other animals and any moving vehicles. I’ll take caution around open doors and any chewable harmful objects while house sitting. I have a full time job between 2-10 they’re really flexible so my schedule stays open I require at least 2 days to a week notice for booking. I update my rover availability to match my work schedule weekly Pets will be supervised outside for potty breaks and walks. Extra care will be taken when walking around moving vehicles, people, and other pets. I will also check the common areas of your house for any loose chewable choking hazards.

About: I’ve had dogs since my 20s. My black lab recently passed away and I’m not ready to get another dog so I figured I would dog walk to get my fix! I am always watching the neighbors dogs and cats. I do have experience with puppies and the elderly. My business is that of Massage Therapy and I am also certified in Canine Massage! I have also included a picture collage of my home so that you know what to expect to see when you come in at any time. I am currently working from home so I am flexible every day of the week. I do schedule myself plenty of breaks every day of the week. This way I can properly take care of your pet. I would take care of your pet just like my own! I spoil them and they will never go hungry no matter if they’re at my home or yours

About: I've owned a wide variety of animals all my life. I showed animals in 4-H for 10 years. I've owned leopard geckos, Crested Geckos, a bearded dragon, dog's, horse's, goats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, cats; and currently own a ball python, & two miniature horse's. I grew up with family dogs & cats. I spent my Junior and Senior year of high school at the Ashtabula Country Technical and Career Campus in the Small Animal Care program, & I was apart of the first graduating class in 2016. I have tons of experience taking care of family and friends animals along with my own personal animals My schedule varies between each week and weekend; please feel free to reach out to me to set up a date & time for me to look after and care for your fur babies I can care and tender to most if not all care pets that they need & offer extra care and assistance if needed &/or wanted; to go above and beyond for your fur-babies.

About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician. I have 2 dogs of my own as well as 3 cats and 6 horses. I am able to give medications if that is something your pets needs. I can feed, water, walk, clean litter boxes and give plenty of playtime and attention while you are gone for the day or out of town. I can care for your senior pets, your new kittens/puppies or those that fall in between. I will follow the instructions you have in place and will work to help keep your pet happy and safe while you're away. I do have experience working with the aggressive and unfriendly as well as the overly friendly pets. If you have pets outside of the "norm" like reptiles and livestock I can also help with them. I'm currently working part-time so I have pretty open availability. I work with pets as part of my job so I know how to handle a wide variety. At this time I currently don't offer in my house care. I have 2 dogs, one of which who is reactive to smaller dogs so this isn't something I will likely offer.

“Very pleasant experience, very engaging available. Understanding on nervousness on leaving my pets with a new person and communicates very well before , and during her 4 day stay at my house. highly recommended”

About: I have taken in many strays since I was young and have cared for them until they found a loving home. I have three dogs who love to exercise, go for walks, and lounge around while cuddling. If you let me, I would love to do the same for your loved one! I am looking to care as much as I can while I am in PA school. I plan to continue when I graduate to give myself a break from real people. I love all fur babies! As a PA student my rotations change monthly and we get randoms days off. If i can fill my time with caring for your baby with no distraction I will. I have fenced in yard for fur babies to roam around, I also have two dogs that can keep them company but can be crated if needed.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters? I spoil my pets so much I had to get a second job to support my habit – and now I want to spoil yours too! I treat every pet like my own, meaning if my bed were big enough, they’d all be snuggling with me. I’ve got experience with training, commands, and even taught my dogs to use communication buttons. Bathing? Easy. Grooming? Not so much. Accidents? No biggie. I’m stocked with pet-safe cleaning supplies and believe in kindness over scolding. Let me spoil and care for your pets like I do mine. Trust me, they'll love it! I have open availability at the moment and prefer to care for dogs at my home, as it is more convenient given that I have a son. This is my primary limitation. I am available for drop-in visits and can consider house sitting in urgent situations. Just shoot me a message and I will see what I can do for you. PLEASE READ - IMPORTANT!!! I do have a small backyard for quick bathroom breaks but live in a private community and have two private dog parks basically in my backyard which are fenced in and rarely used. I consider walking the dog(s) at least once a day is important and I include in any daycare/boarding services. ****please let me know if your dog is not the best walker or any key words like “outside” “potty” that indicates to them its bathroom time it also bring comfort and familiarity to them which helps****. Pottying is usually the hardest to get them use to. I do also have the dog speaking buttons for my dog if those help feel free to being them. For multiple dogs: If ever in an instant a dog needs to be kept separate or I have another clients dog already here. Which I will always make all clients aware of all dogs thats will be present while I care for their dog(s). I am able to divide my house up into 3 extra large areas for multiple dogs on top of the actual rooms that can be used in the house. Even when taking the dogs out there is always a separation so I can tend to all needs and types of dog. I can also remove all barriers if they are not needed. During playtime there is always a person present for any dogs that are not familiar with each-other and are playing together. It is not often there is not a person present or at least monitoring all dogs. I also have procedures in place to safely deescalate any situation. Face it we are all a little crazy at times and don’t always want to be around people. 😁
