House Sitting in Ashtabula

About: I always bring a treat depending on the pups diet. There will always be plenty of kisses given. I like to help with training. I can have Spot sitting on command after 30 minutes. Playing indoor or outdoors is my favorite thing to do. Especially hide and seek or playing in the pool. I’m good at observing dogs habits to understand what they do and don’t like. I volunteer with a local rescue and have helped with fostering. I am more than happy to help with an special needs and understand that they are all different. I enjoy helping animals, if I see them scratching their ears... I’ll gladly scratch them for them. I would feel bad not helping them out. I have experience watching deaf, blind, reactive/temperamental dogs. I am confident in working with them. My 2 dogs are spoiled rotten and socialized. They love meeting new pups. They sleep with me each night. I do respect owners wishes, if you do not want them on furniture. I will gladly abide. I have a client that has a list of things her dogs can and cannot eat. I take the owners wishes seriously. I’m very easy going and thrive on direct communication.

“She was amazing with my dogs! She loves them as much as they loved her. I will definitely use her again!”

About: I love animals as much as I love my family. I’ve had pets my whole life, and cared for more than Ive owned. I also volunteered at the wildlife rescue for over 5 years. I have experience with sick and injured pets as well. Giving medicine orally and injections, including giving fluids with an IV and insulin shots. Several of my pets have lived to be 20, so I also have plenty of experience with the sweet old babes. My dog is also terrified of any loud noises and car rides, he has bad anxiety. So he gets medicine for it when he needs it. Sometimes he releases his anal glands, so then needs a bath (so much fun 🤢) I’m Autistic (formerly called Aspergers), have OCD and ADHD. So I REALLY clean up after your pets!! 😆 I also have experience with house plants and can care for your plants as well! I don’t work a full time job, so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m also a homebody, so I don’t have a busy schedule either. I try to give your pets the calmest and happiest experience while you’re not home. My goal is to help them forget you’re gone, by following the same routine they are used to and giving them all the love, attention and playtime they need. I’m also judgement free and will follow your house rules, religious or otherwise. I will always treat your pets and home with respect.

“Debbie did a great job sitting for my 9 year old Boxer in our camper while we laid my Mom’s ashes in Mentor Cemetary. We are from MT and he’s not used to this heat and humidity. I got her with a last minute request yesterday and she did wonderfully. Highly recommend.”

About: I've lived with animals all my life. They are my family. I tend to them as if they are my children. I did take my rottweiler to training classes... and learned how to easily take her on walks. I am very comfortable and adore all dogs. Cats and other animals are always fun to be with too. I have a fenced in yard and a large sweet rottweiler, Franki and a tuxedo cat, Kitty. My dog is very friendly but not fond of little dogs if they are cocky... I had a jack russel and he was a boss to Franki. I am self employed as an artist and set my own schedule... Which makes it easy to fit in this great job of loving your pets. My Rottie, Frank, loves to lounge on her couch or two beds. She enjoys her fenced in yard and long daily walks. She gets brushed daily and eats two meals of homeaid food and is loved on any time she's near. At nite she sleeps next to me like a queen😊

“Excellent! Great communication, reliable and treated my pups like family. 😍”

About: I have always been a huge animal lover. I have been dog walking for 10+ years. I have experience with dogs of all ages and I am patient with handling special needs your dog may have. I currently have an open schedule with plenty of time spend with your pet and I have full availability to be able to accommodate to your pets routine! I have a big backyard that plenty of pups have enjoyed . With dogs I have boarding with me, we have a set schedule for walks and meal time. Your pup will have the opportunity to mingle with other friendly dogs I have staying with me. I also have separate rooms if I need to separate dogs. It’s a great atmosphere for pets to relax and enjoy their vacation 🐾

About: I’ve been responsible for the care of pets most of my life. Pets are family to me. I love getting to know their individual personalities and supporting their needs. My routine varies daily and weekly. Weekends and evening are more open but, depending on the day and mommy schedule, I can sometimes be available during the day on week days. Overnight stays can be available for house-sitting if my 14 pound, male dog, Franklin, can accompany me; he is very friendly and attached to me. I will connect with you one-on-one about your pets individual needs and follow their schedule and routine as you identify me to do. I respect your space and guidelines.

“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: Big dogs and older dogs are my favorites (but don't tell the others). No matter the breed or age - all dogs are magical to me. I've been a dad to kids and dogs. Now that my kids are adults and my dog, Reese, has passed - I have four amazing cats! I retired as a military officer in 2015. My life is simple and complete, but it sure would be nice to spoil your dogs for you while you are away. I will check-in, care for, walk, and stay with your dogs, follow all of your instructions, and update you on their well-being. But I can only do this outside of my home - our cats would freak out!

About: I've always had dogs in my home even as a young child. I'm always the one called when a dog sitter is needed and I would have it no other way! I have taken many of my dogs to different types of trainings and obedience schools so don't be shocked if your dog learns a new trick at my home. I've also worked at a pet store with puppies and can give medications if needed. I have experience with all types of animals including reptiles and farm animals. I hope to one day start a rescue or sanctuary so rest assured your pet will be treated as my own if not better. I'm currently working part time and William is a stay at home dad so we just want to pet your dog all day everyday! Ok we'll also walk and play with them ☺️ William has also passed an enhanced background check as well and is my pup partner. He's also had and cared for animals all of his life. He loves all animals but has a soft spot for dogs and will snuggle your dog any chance he gets. One of us is always at home and will take the time to get to know your pet and what they need. We have low energy pets that sit on the couch all day and we have high energy pets that need constant stimulation. We will take walks, play with toys and snuggle whenever we can ☺️ We have just moved into our forever home in chardon and are working diligently to make our home a safe space for all of our fur friends! All animals eat separately. All animals are allowed on furniture unless you would prefer we don't let them. We have a heavy duty crate for crate trained pups but do allow you to bring your own if need be. Strong metal baby gates separate sections of our home to provide extra security. Please feel free to communicate any extra steps you may need us to take for your fur baby, we have plenty of space, time, love and patience to do whatever is needed. Safety is our top priority!

“Allyssa was great! We appreciate you caring for our kitties while we were gone!”

“Kayla was great! Communication was awesome, she was always so quick to respond! She kept me so updated on my boys, and I felt very confident having her there with them! This was our first time ever leaving our dogs, so I was a nervous wreck, and Kayla quickly made me feel comfortable and I was able to actually enjoy my time away from home! I will absolutely be booking again when I'm away again. ❤️”

“Eric was fantastic! Moose and mittens loved him. He messaged everyday with pictures to make sure we knew our babies were taken care of. Very nice and personable and trustworthy. Thank you so much Eric! We will definitely be using him if he’s available for our next trip!”

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.

About: I work my typical job as a 5th grade teacher but was a nanny before that with lots of dog experience from that! However, I have cared for many families that had older dogs and cats as well as have gotten puppies while I was their nanny. So, I have experience with all ages of dogs as well as cats. I am currently working as a 5th grade teacher during the day until 3pm. With my nights being completely free the nights I work as well as weekends! I can be flexible, if you need quick visits or longer stays of visits for your animals. Based on your needs in your home I am able to accommodate!

“Lora was so great and provided great care for my fur baby! She was very communicative and proactively sent pictures throughout the day. She even taught my pup a new trick! Highly recommend”

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I’ve had the joy of looking after a wide variety of animals, from playful puppies and independent cats to curious rabbits. My approach is always tailored to each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, I bring dedication and a genuine passion for animal welfare to every job. This extensive experience has taught me how to handle different temperaments and health requirements, making me a reliable and compassionate pet sitter for any furry friend. I am available on weekends, as well as all day Monday, and on Wednesday and Friday evenings. Willing to stay with you pets for the whole weekend or pop in on those days i’m free! There is a fenced yard at my parents' home with five dogs, and I often play ball with them outside. I also have a fenced yard at my place for my 2-year-old Mini Aussie, where we enjoy playing outdoors as well. He has two full toy baskets and bark boxes every month! He is very loved (spoiled) :)!
