“Brittni went beyond my expectations when caring for my precious Simon! She is a very loving, dependable caregiver and provided regular daily feedback on his stay. I highly recommend her and hope to be able to book with her again in the future.”

About: Hi, everyone! I have worked in a variety of different settings with animals of all kinds, (but mostly dogs). I have worked as a professional dog trainer, humane educator, foster coordinator, animal caretaker, community outreach coordinator at a tri-state humane society, and in animal rescue for over 7 years. I have trained, walked, and pet sat dogs for over 10 years off and on for clients, friends and relatives. Dogs know there are always treats in my pockets! I have a comfy couch for all animals to lay on, as well as a yard where they can dig as much as they want. My home is set up to cater to animals that's for sure! I look forward to getting to know you and your dogs. ❤️ While I work a full-time job in nonprofit administration, it is first shift, which gives me the availability in the early morning (5-9AM) to late evening (5:30PM and later) to provide pet care, depending on the day! 💜🐾 While I live in Niles and serve clients within a ten mile radius, I work in Ashtabula; I will also serve clients in the following cities within Ashtabula County: Jefferson, Rock Creek, Orwell, Andover, Pierpont, Conneaut, Ashtabula, and Geneva! 🐱🐶🐾💜 While I do not provide boarding or doggie daycare at this time, I care for your animal companions as I do my own, with love, patience, and kindness. Boarding will open up again soon!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. We always had a dog or two growing up along with a few cats throughout the years. Star was a 14 year old lab mix rescue that we had since she was 4 months old, who passed in February 2023. I have a 9 year old Blue Healer, Bella, and a 10 year old Rottweiler, Layla who passed away in August 2023. They are like my children even though I have 3 children who range in age from 15-23. I walk Bella, take her to the lake or the dog park or to walk around any of our local parks but she doesn’t like to go as far in her older years. I am on a schedule with giving medication to my pets along with treats and regular brushing. Star would only play with me with a tennis ball and Layla would play with anyone but only with a specific toy so I am well versed in picky dogs. Star also slept in bed with me but Layla preferred her crate even after she was trained, she just enjoyed her own space and would go in it when she is ready for bed. Bella rotates and sleeps with one of us each night. Addison is my middle child and has gone with me for the last couple of years and earned the trust of many of my clients to fill in for me when I am not available. She is a senior at Fitch and is going to attend Slippery Rock in the fall. I will let you know if she will need to assist in any of the visits prior to accepting your request. We do a meet and greet with the two of us to ensure that your pet is comfortable with us prior to finalizing any visits. That is a little about us and our experience. I hope you will give us the opportunity to care for your special family members. I recently made a change in my career. I am a flight attendant for Breeze Airways out of Akron Canton Airport. This has been an amazing journey and opened up my schedule to care for animals again. I will keep my schedule updated for my availability for the current month and my schedule for the following month is released on the 15th. If you are planning ahead please let me know the dates and times your furbabies would need me and I’ll be able to request it off. My life would not be the same without the tail wags and purrs of your favorite animals 🐾 Caring for your pet in your home will be done according to your instructions. I will treat them with all the love and respect as if they were my own but follow your guidelines for care. That will include walks, playtime, feeding schedules, treats and or any special medications or care needed. If I should need to crate your pet for safety to transport them at your request I can do that as well. Your pets safety and comfort will always be a number one priority. If you are interested in house sitting and will need me to be in the home continuously for more than 6 hours or to stay overnight please message me to discuss as this could affect your rate.

If you are planning ahead please let me know the dates and times your furbabies would need me and I’ll be able to request it off. I do have multiple customers that rebook for the same day and time each week or month so I do apologize if I am not available on your first request. I have never had an issue with safety, trust or environment when it comes to any part of my life. I do currently board animal in my home on a limited basis depending on the dog and my schedule during that requested boarding time. I use a hands free leash with a bungee to make walks more comfortable for the dogs and safer when I am cleaning up after them on walks. I do prefer they use a harness and I have had great success with reforming dogs that would pull during walks to now pleasant walkers just by positive reinforcement. Entry and exit to your home is done according to your needs. I have clients that do it many different ways and your comfort and safety along with that of your pet is always a priority.
About: I’ve had a fur companion all of my life! I’ve successfully raised and trained five dogs from puppies and I have experience with rescue pups who may not feel entirely comfortable in their new environment. I’ve experienced small and large breeds alike, with my current pup being a King Cavalier Spaniel. Goose’s cousins who we see weekly are two Golden retrievers and one rescue mix. I’m able to be flexible or rigid when it comes to your pets schedule, and am knowledgeable in special diets, fresh pet food, administering meds if needed. I have the luxury of working from home and creating my own schedule which makes my days very flexible! I currently can accept pets for boarding, play dates or walks Sunday through Thursday, 9:30am to 10pm. My dog is allowed to be on all furniture and sleep in the bed and your pet would be permitted to as well if that is your preference! Goose and I take several walks a day and love to take day trips to various area dog parks and hiking trails or enjoy a lazy afternoon on the couch.
“Nicole made the whole boarding process so easy. Dixie was comfortable and relaxed (Nicole updated us regularly with photos) which in turn helped us relax and enjoy our time away. We 100% recommend Nicole R!!”

About: Over the past 20 years, I’ve cared for three of my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of life—from potty training and high energy phases to gentle senior care. I’ve also raised kittens into senior cats, so I’m comfortable with feline personalities and needs as well. Beyond my own pets, I’ve regularly helped care for the dogs and cats of family and friends. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, love, and attention I gave my own. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and provide a calm, present environment while you’re away. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own space. I take a patient, gentle approach and pay close attention to each animal’s unique temperament—whether that means playtime and energy for a young pup or a quiet, reassuring presence for a shy cat. In addition to everyday care, I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral meds and insulin injections for diabetic cats. I understand how important consistency, attentiveness, and trust are when caring for pets with medical needs, and I’m confident providing that level of care. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends over the years, helping with walks, feedings, routines, and lots of affection. Every pet I care for is treated with the same love and attention I gave my own. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a calm, loving experience while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities, whether I’m caring for them in your home or welcoming them into mine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and cats who are accustomed to other animals, creating a calm and welcoming environment. I’m mindful of introductions and each pet’s personality to ensure everyone feels safe and at ease. Dogs are always leashed for daily walks, and I have a large yard that allows for extra exercise and playtime in a secure space. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to closely supervise pets, maintain their routines, and give them consistent attention and companionship. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special preferences you share. I also offer meet-and-greets before bookings so you and your pet can feel comfortable and confident. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, attentive hands.
“Hayley did a great job taking care of my dog. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. Not only was she great with my pet, but also did an amazing job communicating with me especially being flexible when I needed some help. I would love her to take care of my dog again.”

“Grace made me feel very comfortable leaving my 3 dogs with her, which isn't all that easy. My girls were happy with her and were glad to be there. I would recommend Grace and would re-book with her in the future.”

“Kelli was great! So easy to communicate with and was so sweet with our little guy! Loved getting updates and photos while we were gone. Moose needs medicine 3xday and Kelli was great working with his schedule:). We will definitely be using her again!!!”


About: It’s simple. I just love dogs. I love my dog. I’ve had dogs all my life. I like to walk dogs just plain and simple. I have a friendly dog now and walk it and let it outside and take care of it. He’s part of my family and fixed. I have a fenced in yard and pay a lot of attention to the animals needs. I make sure they’re happy and pay a lot of attention to animals.
“Brittany did a great job updating me with pictures and a text about what they’ve done for the day when I left my pup with her. When I picked Mowgli up he seemed very happy!! We will definitely use her again if we are in the area.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Austintown
Ronda watched our baby for over a week and treated him as her own. She sent pictures and updated us on how he was doing. She was very flexible when we had a delayed flight and kept him for another night since we got in so late. Our baby came home happy and tired from having fun! He really enjoyed the fenced in yard and lots of attention he got while he was there.

Maya is such a wonderful sitter!!! Harley enjoyed herself making new friends and being spoiled with treats and cuddles! She always reassures me with plenty of pictures and updates while we’re away! I absolutely love her and will always use her for all our Rover needs!!

I had an excellent experience with Shelly and couldn’t be more grateful for the care she provided. From the very beginning, her communication was proactive, clear, and reassuring. She kept me updated consistently and went above and beyond by sending regular photos, which gave me real peace of mind while I were away. I truly appreciated how easy she made the entire experience and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful pet sitter!

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Austintown can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Austintown home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Austintown.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Austintown. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Austintown sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
