About: I have been around/cared for dogs all my life. I grew up with labs and currently have 2 dogs of my own! I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and will treat all of them like family. I have a full time, work from home job but am free after work from 4:30 on. I also have full availability on weekends to stop in and care for your dogs I will always make sure to be respectful of your personal space and follow all instructions given to me. I will take the time to get your know your pup and make sure they are comfortable. Aside from drop in visits I am happy to hang out and snuggle with your dog like they were my own. I love taking my dogs for long walks and will be happy to do so with yours as well.

“I really appreciate you stopping over and taking care of Murphy! Gabrielle checked in when she got there, gave him time to go to the bathroom, walked him and made sure he had water. My dog vomited once before she got there and she cleaned it up and even took a picture so I could know what was going on. I would definitely use Gabrielle again!”


About: I have been the go to dog walker/sitter for many of my friends and family for years. I grew up always having a dog in the house so daily walks have been apart of my routine for as long as I can remember! Whether you have a younger, more active dog who needs long walks or a senior pup that still enjoys times outside but at slower pace, I am here to help. I am truly a dog lover to my core who is dependable and will treat your dog as if they were my own. I am a recent college graduate who is looking to spend my extra time helping you out with your pup. Outside of taking care of my own dog, I am here to give your dog the care and attention they need! I have had the amazing opportunity to care for dogs of all sizes and ages so i understand that each dog will have their own unique needs and limitations. I am here to support you and your pup by creating a safe environment and a positive experience! Between handling medications, sticking to your routine, or making sure they are safe in their crate when I leave, I am committed to ensuring your dog’s safety while they are in my care!

“Leilani is very good with dogs. Rover immediately went up to her with no hesitation and was completely comfortable being around her. She made sure that she understood everything about Rover’s personality and I could tell that she is very knowledgeable about dogs and how to properly care for them. I am very confident that my dog will be getting exemplary care when he will stay with her. Rover clearly did not want her to leave when her visit with him was over.”


“Will continue to use Nikki as long as she’s available to let my sheepdog out! Fast communicator and my doggo loves her.”



“Ember was great with our pups and so helpful with my last minute requests!”



About: Hi fellow pet lovers! My love for animals has led me to work in the veterinary field, and I also offer pet sitting as a fun and fulfilling side hobby. I work remotely, so I get to spend quality time caring for your furry friends. With my experience, I’ve learned how to spot signs of distress and can respond quickly if medical attention is needed. I’m also very comfortable giving medications and caring for pets with special needs. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and you can count on them being in safe, loving hands. If you’d like references, I’m happy to provide them. Thanks for considering me! I am currently working remotely and can fit pet care during the day or even overnight sometimes. I am located in Wet Cleveland area, and can travel further away :) Our home has big land for pets to run around. For kitties i have separate sun room with many play spots, litter box and other necessities.

“Reagan did such an amazing job for us while we were on vacation. Our flight got canceled coming home and we were unable to get home for two extra days and she stepped up for us when we needed her most! We couldn’t be more grateful for her care and help! Five stars all the way, would definitely use her again!”


About: I’ve had two dogs of my own since I was four years old. I helped train my second dog when I was 10 years old. I’ve looked after my neighbors dogs while they are away and I have been on Wag! For a year watching people’s dogs as well. I’ll not only make sure your pets are okay while I’m gone, but I’ll go the extra step and make sure they are loved and cared and play with them. I’m currently nannying for the summer from about 8:30-5:30 Tuesdays-Fridays. I’m usually free on the weekends while I’m home for the summer and can always stop by before work and after. At my own home I make sure my dogs are walked at least 2-3 times a day. I keep food off the counter so that the big guy doesn’t reach up and grab it. In your home I can do whatever you feel is necessary to make sure your pet is safe and okay.

About: Had dogs and cats my entire life and recently trained a golden retriever of my own that lives with my parents. Frequently pet sit for relatives and neighbors. As a Track Runner I love to take your dogs on long walks or jogs if they’re up to it. Sitting in your home I have the potential to spend night if needed and am able to let them out from early mornings and try to finish around 10pm if just stopping by depending on location. In my home I have a fenced yard and an open floor plan with comfy couches and beds for them to hang out on. Also have dog lead to keep tethered if needed. Willing to be patient with rowdy or old dogs.

About: I am a committed and dependable caregiver. I was a mom to a handicapped blue heeler named Zack. He was my life and my joy but lost his battle to cancer 3 years ago. I am missing him tremendously and would welcome the opportunity to care for your furry family member(s). I work evenings from 9p to 5a in Avon and need little sleep so my schedule is very flexible. I can accommodate most schedules while you work. I am here for you and your pet and am committed to putting both of you first. My eyes will be on your pet at all times. While you are away, they become my full responsibility and I treat them as if they are my very own. I am a protective caregiver being cognizant of my surroundings (e.g., other dogs in the neighborhood, etc). I enjoy all kinds of animals and my heart goes into my caregiving.

“I was very happy with the services Tiffany provided watching our cats while we were out of town. One of our cats went into hiding and she went above and beyond trying to find her her. She reported in every day with pictures and stayed in touch with me throughout our time away. I'll definitely use Tiffany again for any future trips out of town.”


About: I have several years of cat and dog experience. I grew up with animals and have taken care of them from early ages all the way through senior ages. I love all animals like their my own and love taking care of them! I'm currently working full time. However, I have evenings, weekends and holiday's off. I am pretty flexible with my weekends and can accommodate you and your animals for any needs! I have lots of training in dog walking. I have a dog of my own who went through training as a puppy and I have always remembered my training with her when I deal with other people's animals.

About: Both my wife and I had dogs and cats through most of our lives and currently pet sit for family members. We have two teenage daughters who love dogs and cats and they look forward to playing with your pet! We have a quarter acre fenced in back yard which will be a great place for your dogs to play outside! We currently can pet sit from late morning into the evening most days of the week except on Wednesdays. We are free some weekends to pet sit. We have a designated area in our house for your pet's food/water/liter box. We have all hardwood floors so your pet if free to play all throughout the house during the day! This fall we wrapped up a 2 year car sitting stint and it went very well and we loved our time with that kitty. Excited to start meeting new pets again. My daughter Corey (she is 14) is homeschooled so she had a lot of flexibility to walk your dog when it is most convenient for you. She hasn’t met a doggie yet she doesn’t like! We have a fenced in backyard which is great for your dog to get some exercise. We also have two teen daughters who love to walk dogs and play with them. Our house has no carpet so your pet can have the run of our house and be with the family!

“Jenna was great with Sushi. She provided regular updates with pictures. She took efforts to warm upto my cat who is a little shy with strangers. Will definitely recommend her.”


“Wonderful. Absolutely wonderful. Communication was amazing and made me feel comfortable leaving my Gizmo in Megan's care for over a week. Thank you!!”


About: I've taken care of my cousins' senior dog a few times over the years, and never experienced any trouble with his routines like medications, walks, treats, etc. No request is insignificant, and I will follow directions to a tee to keep your pet's days as stress-free and fun as they can be! I am home from college for the summer and won't have a regular summer job so I am very flexible and can adjust to whatever schedule you'd like! I am only caring for pets in clients' homes, so their environment will remain unchanged and comfortable as usual. As I mentioned above, I will follow any and all routines that you would like me to for your pets, in addition to showering them with love :)


About: I've been a loving pet owner all my life. My 2 dogs are spoiled and LOVE the company of other dogs. Your pet's stay with us will be lots of fun and they might not want to leave! My house is your dog's house! Privately tucked away and far removed from any busy streets, my house is the perfect home away from home for your fur babies. Your pups will enjoy over a half acre of open, grassy space surrounded by beautiful trees to run, play, and safely explore in, and a cozy, warm home where they can snuggle up and rest after a full day of fun. I will keep in touch with you and send pics as often as you'd like, and you will be comforted to know that your dog is receiving the best care possible. I am TOTALLY flexible with your needs! I work part time and mostly from home so I'm rarely away for more than three or 4 hours at a time. My pups (and yours) will get loving attention all through the day! Your pet will get the highest love care possible. Your pet will have full run of my house including couches and beds. I welcome all visiting pups to join me and Rudy for our evening sleep if they care to join us. Emma prefers the ottoman at the end of my bed.


About: I have had pets since childhood. Right now I am petless😞 so would love to take care of your babies! Please know you can trust they will get lots of love! I am currently unemployed and have lots of time to spend with your pet, playing or just sitting and loving them. Thank you for trusting and considering me. I will care for them by listening to what the owner instructs in either my home or theirs. Personally I think the pet is more comfortable in their familiar surroundings.

“I have known Derek Bentoff for six years, and during three of those years, I lived with him and his pups Emma and Rudy. Not only does Derek love people and pets, he has a magical quality of bringing both people and pets together, and does so in a kind, loving and humorous way. I have trusted Derek Bentoff categorically and at all times with personal matters; the same holds true today. Any organization that includes Mr. Bentoff among its ranks is fortunate. And the pets will love and trust him, as well. Mark McHugh 202-860-7790”
