Pet Boarding in Austintown

About: I have a flexible schedule and work per diem in healthcare, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and love. I offer regular walks, playtime, and lots of affection to make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away. During our time together, I can also teach basic tricks like sit, paw, roll over, and lay down—keeping things fun and mentally stimulating. Pets are welcome to relax wherever they feel most comfortable, including the couches and beds. My home is smoke-free, peaceful, and full of love. I truly go the extra mile to make every pet feel like part of the family. Pet care is one of the most meaningful and fulfilling parts of my week. I work per diem in healthcare, which means I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time to caring for animals. I structure my week around the needs of the pets I’m caring for—whether that means morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or overnight stays. Making sure pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily routine. When pets are in my care, their comfort and safety come first. I create a calm, clean, and smoke-free environment where pets are free to relax, snuggle, and feel right at home. I take time to get to know their routines, preferences, and energy levels—whether they love to play or prefer quiet companionship. In my home, pets are allowed on furniture and beds if that’s what they’re used to, and I follow any feeding, medication, or behavior routines closely. In a client’s home, I always treat the space with respect and care, keeping pets on their usual schedule to reduce stress while you’re away. I believe in clear communication and always send updates, photos, and messages so you feel connected and reassured.

“Kash had a wonderful time staying with Briana, her family and his new friend Duke! Briana sent several pictures daily and kept up updated on his eating, playing and sleeping routine. We knew he was getting the love and attention as if he was home.”

About: With a passion for dogs that runs deep, I have hands-on experience training my Belgian Malinois, Eddie, for IGP and my Doberman, Moses, for basic house manners and obedience. Our adventures often lead us to hiking trails, where we bond, have fun, and enjoy the great outdoors together. My love for dogs has been a constant throughout my life, shaping my experiences and creating cherished memories with many dogs. As a dog sitter, my deep love for dogs has always been a significant part of my life. I enjoy dog sitting from my home because I work from home with a highly flexible job, enabling me to monitor the dog closely and provide constant care and attention. While dog sitting, I prioritize personalized care for each pet. With a fenced yard, dogs can enjoy outdoor play while being monitored by me or lounge inside, whether they prefer energetic activities or simply lounging on the couch. During dog sitting, I ensure clients stay updated with regular picture, video and text updates, keeping them informed and reassured about their dogs well-being. Clients can reach me anytime via phone or text while their dogs are in my care, providing peace of mind and quick communication for any updates or concerns.

“April was a wonderful sitter, very patient and kind. Cooper is a rescue dog that we have had only a year. Still learning about him and his ways, April was very good at reading him,and working with him. He made 3 new friends and loved every moment with them. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come home! Thanks again April for all your knowledge and kindness!”

About: Hi my name is Jen, I'm a mother of 5 kids and I've had animals ever since I was little and always was taking care and playing with my animals. I give animals a lot of love and make sure they have anything they need. I have been living with my fiancee and have been wanting a pet but haven't gotten one due to bills and I would really like to interact with dogs or cats I have on off free time. And on my free time I like to work with animals. I have always loved working with them. I'm free Saturday and Sunday Monday afternoon Wednesday friday I will be offering walking and cleaning dogs stool. If there is any specific thing the owner needs me to do I will listen as request.

“Arya was phenomenal with our pup. He was very informative and kept us updated with many videos while on a 10 day vacation. We will absolutely be using him to board our dog for future trips.”

“She is just great and my dog loves her. Couldn't ask for a better sitter. This is my dogs other family and she always makes me feel good about leaving my dog with her.”

Heidi C.

“Everything went fine I think. I didn't know when I booked her that she had small children, it worried me because Buttercup is a large rambunctious pup (st betnard), but when I asked her when I dropped them off Ashlee said it was fine. Dr Pepper hid under a bed the whole time, which didn't surprise me, he's a shy cat. However when I got him home he's been extremely loving (which is not normal for him) so I'm pleased.”

About: Growing up we always had dogs from bulldogs to an English mastiff. I currently have a 5 year old sharpei mix that I absolutely adore. I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends since I was 14 and love it. Some responsibilities that required included feeding, watering, bathing, medication administration, walking and playing with their favorite toys. I’ve worked with puppies and dogs as old as 14. I would love to get to help other people out because I know how big of a hassle it can be to try to work around a work or vacation schedule to make sure your dog is taken care of. My dog has a tie out that he gets connected to when he needs to go potty, we do not have a fence due to living on a large piece of land. When he’s off leash he has an e-collar that allows me to keep track of his location. As far as taking care of other peoples dogs goes I just do as I’m told or whatever is requested. If you’d like your dog to be leashed, great! If you’d like them not to be leash, also great! Put them in a crate while no one is home, can do! Whatever they’re used to is what I will do, keeping them in a routine is so important.

About: I have taken care of dogs for my whole life. I am an animal lover and treat them as part of the family. I spoil my dog and if you would like your dog spoiled too then you should call me. I am retired and am available most to all days. I am very flexible. With my own dog, I take him outside often and make sure he has food and water at all times. I have a large back yard and a dog who loves to play with new playmates. I have a home that is welcoming for dogs or I can come to you and take your dog for a walk.

“Emily was great! We were so happy that she did such a great job with our special needs dog. Definitely recommend and will be happy to use again.”

“Christine was the best “Mom” to our JRT Chloe. She picked her up and dropped her off and sent pics every day. It was the best experience. I have only used a dog sitter for Chloe twice in 7 years and again Christine was the best! Thank you so much!”

About: I've lived with animals, big and small, my whole life. If there was a stray animal, all of a sudden it wasn't stray anymore. Recently got my first (working breed) puppy and doing everything I can to make sure he is well socialized and well behaved. This has given me a lot of insight on how to keep a dog mentally and physically challenged. We have also taken obedience classes. For mental challenges, we do training, hide and seek, and large variety of dog puzzles. For physical, we play with soccer ball, fetch, flirt pole, frisbee, we also have plenty of space for play. I would be happy to include your dogs in our day! Stay at home mom with pretty much full availability. We still need to be home pretty consistently for our 7 month old pup. Would just request information on crating options in case it fell on grocery day and I need to leave for an hour, but majority of the time, I am home! I care for your pet based off your given expectations. I'm home most of the day, so if you'd like me to follow a very specific set of instructions, I can do that. I know how important routines are for dogs and I can try my best to keep your dog on their routines. I will only accept dogs that have a chance to meet my dogs first, at a meet and greet. My dogs are friendly and the pup is certainly playful, so if it is a good fit, they will all have a lot of fun together! I can only accommodate care in my own home as I have small children. Children and pets are never left alone without my supervision (whether its your pet or my pet) for all parties safety. Please let me know anyway I can make you feel at ease, with updates, pictures and videos, or anything else you can think of.
