Dog Sitting Avon Lake

About: Recently moved. New city, new neighborhood and ready to meet the neighbors! I just need your dog to walk and help me! I grew up with dogs, had a dog of my own and raised my kids with dogs. I miss the collar jingle in the house! I've trained and cared for several and can adapt to your process. Happy to help and provide peace of mind when you're not available to be with yours. I'm available early mornings, some lunchtime availability and evenings. Weekends fully available. My FT job is a hybrid schedule (I am in the office 3 days a week, 8-4:30). I live in a safe, friendly area, walkable community, parks (dog parks too) and more. Visiting dogs enjoy the views outdoors from my large windows, access to a sunroom and ground level deck to lay in the sun.

“My dogs were great. Brendan checked in every time and sent me pictures. My dogs are very calm and I can tell no stress that we were gone for a couple of days. Would absolutely ask Brendan again. Thank you!!!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities for over 20 years. As a neonatal nurse practitioner, providing attentive, compassionate care is part of who I am, and I bring that same level of responsibility and love to every pet I watch. I’m the proud owner of Kona, my friendly 9-year-old Lab/Shar-Pei mix, and I have two young children who have grown up around dogs and are gentle and respectful with animals. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m available most days of the week and can provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with people, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“Brittany was great at communicating with me, especially because my cat is antisocial. I didn’t anticipate Brittany seeing her so she let me know that the food and water were being consumed and she was using the litter box. It made my travels much easier! I’d book with Brittany again.”

“Maura was wonderful. She was so attentive and sent amazing pictures. She’s reliable and has amazing communication. I will absolutely be using her in the future and I recommend her 100%!”

About: I have had dogs in my house my whole life, and for the past few years, I have been dog-sitting for numerous families for long periods of time. I am equipped to walk, let out, feed, administer medications, play, and take care of any other needs your dog may have. I work as a caregiver on Saturdays and Sundays for 6 hours each day, but otherwise, I can spend the rest of my time with your pup. I make it a priority to get any instructions my clients may have regarding their pup and make sure to follow them. I also make sure that I am always in earshot when in the home with the dog so that if anything happens, I can quickly act.

“Tyler was very fast at communicating back to me and very knowledgeable. I could tell my pup had a good time during her drop in, she was all tuckered out. Exactly what I was looking for. Definitely will rebook with him.”

About: Hi! I’m Robert. I’ve had animals all my life (dogs, cats, fish, lizards, hermit crabs, raised praying mantids and butterflies). I trap and spay/neuter feral cats (TNR), feed birds, planted a pollinator garden in my yard…love nature and appreciate the relationship between humans and animals. My small dog Tyson is 11 or 12 years old and has some special needs (anxiety, hip-problems, blind in one eye, and I am his 3rd owner), so I know patience and compassion when it comes to senior dogs. Two of my cats I’ve had since they were kittens, and the third cat was abandoned by a neighbor and chose me as her new human when they left her. Happy to accommodate your companion’s special needs, and will be honest with you if there is something I don’t feel confident about. I also use two water fountain bowls, so your friend will have access to clean, moving water. I am a bar tender and have been doing that work since 2006, 12 years at my current bar. I work part time there and have a good amount of free-time which I can use to take care of of your dog. I have a large fenced in yard (176 ft of 6ft tall wooden fence) with plenty of shade, water bowls, central air and heating. Pets are free to lounge anywhere in my house, but I do prefer dogs to be crated if I am away for their own safety, and peace of mind for me :) Please let me know if you have any rules you have for your pets at home, feeding schedule, potty-break schedule, etc.

“Eva was amazing! She was so sweet and kind to my puppy, she was very punctual and followed all my instructions throughly! I would definitely recommend her to anyone and would love to book with her again!”

Sasicha G.

“My pups love Devon! I also foster and she’s up for taking care of 3 dogs if I need her to. She is easy to communicate with, reliable, and provides great care for my pups. Highly recommend!”

“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 experience helping with both family and friends - dog sitting and housesitting! I enjoy long walks daily so adding a dog into the mix would be great. I work at a local hospital and have a lot of flexibility due to multiple days off. If you need any additional information about myself don't hesitate to reach out to me. I'm that person that most dogs gravitate towards so you won't go wrong choosing me to take care of them. I work only 3 days a week which leaves me with a lot of flexibility during the week and weekends. I decided I needed something fulfilling and enjoyable on my days off and will have continuous days I can dedicate. I have many years of taking care of close friends and family’s animals, I also have nannied previously for families that also have dogs/cats. I treat everyone’s animals as if they are mine. No one should ever feel unsafe or hesitant about leaving their animals with someone and I aim to erase that fear for the owner(s).

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for several years! I have two huskies of my own now. I have raised dogs from their puppy stage all the way up to their adulthood on my own and for families I babysat for. I am very active and energetic and would love to walk yours too! I am currently not employed so I am available any time and day! I usually walk my own dogs 4 times a day but can work around your schedule. I would be able to care for your pets in your home. I have two huskies of my own and my partner would be staying home with them as I stay at your home to watch your pets.

“The pups had a great time and were very well taken care of by Derek.”

“Julie took our Sadie out for a potty break and spent time playing with her when we were gone for the day. She sent some pictures, it eased our minds to see that Sadie was being taken care of. We really appreciated it. I would recommend Julie.”

About: I love animals and I enjoy being around them. I have a one year old German shepherd mix who loves other animals and playing so it would be a great opportunity for the both of us. I enjoy being outdoors with my dog and I’d be sure to do the same with yours. I have a very nice neighborhoood where I can take your dogs on walks and give them the exercise they need(: if you have any questions I’m free to answer any you have. I live with one other person who would be able to help so somebody will always be available to love and care for your pets! We do great team work and we are ready to have fun I have one small child , 6 years old who is home Sunday - Thursday! I have plenty of time to enjoy time with your pets. Depending on the times I have your animals I like to start off with feeding and excercise early in the morning with evening walks and play sessions also being part of the daily schedule. I have a fenced in back yard and one fur baby to keep hours company. I am open to spending all the time in the world with your animals.🫶🏽

About: Leaving your dog with someone new is a big deal. I know you want someone who will not only keep them safe, but also understand their personality, routines, and individual needs. My experience with dogs has taught me that every pup is different, and good care means meeting them where they are. I have experience raising and caring for puppies, so I’m comfortable with all of the patience, consistency, supervision, and energy that comes with them. From potty-training and crate routines to redirecting unwanted behaviors, keeping them entertained, and helping them learn boundaries, I understand that puppies require a lot of attention and structure. I also have experience with dogs who are nervous, fearful, or anxious. I know that not every dog is immediately comfortable with a new person or environment, and I never want to force interaction before they’re ready. I’m comfortable taking things slowly, giving them space when they need it, and building trust at their own pace. On the other hand, I absolutely love working with energetic, playful dogs who need more than just a quick walk around the block. Whether your dog needs a long walk, a game of fetch, playtime, mental stimulation, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to give them the attention and activity they need. I’m also comfortable with dogs who have big personalities. I understand that excitement, nervousness, stubbornness, curiosity, and high energy can all show up differently from dog to dog. My goal is always to learn what makes your pup comfortable and make their time with me feel as positive and stress-free as possible. Most importantly, I want you to feel confident while you’re away. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routine, preferences, quirks, and needs so I can care for them the way you would. At the end of the day, I want your pup to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll give them the same patience, attention, and love I’d want someone to give my own dogs. 🐶🤍 Because I work from my phone, I have the flexibility to give pets my full attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to be present for frequent walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of cuddles. Pet care easily fits into my routine since I can adjust my work around their needs. When caring for pets, I always make sure to follow their routine exactly as outlined—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medications, or special rules. I prioritize safety by keeping a close eye on doors, leashes, and anything that could pose a risk, and I give regular updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for, just like they would with you.

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.

“Sabrina did an excellent job and kept me informed on her visits. Even sent me pictures. I definitely recommend her and will use her again. Rover is very professional . I highly recommend them.”
