Dog Sitting Bainbridge

About: I've had dogs off and on my entire life but it wasn't until we adopted our baby girl Coco that I really fell in love. We had 13.5 wonderful years with her, then after she passed we decided to foster dogs in her honor and have been doing this since Sept. 2020 with several local organizations. We have fostered 25 dogs and have sat 26 dogs to date, including puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with behavioral and medical special needs. Our pricing reflects the peace of mind of knowing that your pet is well cared for and part of our family during their stay with us. Or for in house sitting, we are mature, reliable and trustworthy and treat your home like our own. We look forward to hearing from you! My husband and I are retired so we are very flexible in our schedule and decided we want to do something meaningful and enjoyable in our retirement. We have a large 1.5 acre lot with a pond on property. It is very serene and peaceful here. Our yard is only partially fenced so we keep the dogs on leash when walking outside. We make frequent potty breaks and like to take dogs for walks in the woods behind our house. They dogs usually sleep on a bed on the floor in our bedroom but will be crated if we have to leave the house for their own safety.

About: I grew up in a house with dogs, and have been caring for them my entire life! I’ve had dogs as large as Great Danes or as small as chihuahuas. I’m comfortable caring for all sizes and ages of dogs, and can assist with supplemental training with simple commands such as learning to sit. I’m also happy to assist with any additional care needs such as light grooming, outdoor playtime, or administering oral medication. Monday-Friday I am available until noon for any morning pet care needs. I can assist on weekends or evenings after 9pm as needed- just ask and I am sure we can work something out! Since I am experienced with caring for pets of all shapes and sizes, I am always able to take a calm and unique approach to make sure your pets are comfortable and safe. I pay close attention to body language, and integrate your pet’s personality into my care to make sure they feel respected and stay safe. I love animals, so I always care for them with enthusiasm and make sure they know how much they are loved!

About: I have watched over many of dogs in my lifetime, including my own dog who recently passed away due to old age in May. I loved taking him on long walks in the park, or in my neighborhood, and giving him lots of love and cuddles! I grew up always caring for animals and which I am very passionate about, and treating them like they are my own! A lot of my neighbors owned dogs, so whenever they went out of town I would always be the one to help out and pet sit! I am so excited to be part of Rover and can't wait to meet your furry friends! I currently graduated from college and looking to do some pet sitting and walking!! I have every morning available Monday-Sunday! I currently have 2 bernedoodles and keeping them active and busy is very important to me- and I want your furry friends to feel the same! I am very passionate about giving the right care that your pet needs, and following the exact rules that the pet owner requires. I am very patient, so having your pet have trust in me is very important to me when taking care of them.

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats throughout my experience. Of mostly all ages and even multiple at a time. The most cats i have ever had is 4 at once! I am currently a college student so spending the night at peoples home would not be an issue. Not crazy available on weekends but can definitely ask! The most classes i have are 3 at once so 3 hour break from being able to come over. I make sure to feed my pets breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Let them out as much as they express they need to and give them plenty of affection, play time, and walks. Not one client who I have sat for or walked their dog has gave me any criticism. I make sure to follow the clients instructions to the exact details.

About: My experience with dogs isn't just a hobby; it's a core part of my daily life. As a proud dog owner myself, I have years of firsthand, 24/7 experience managing everything that comes with a happy pup—from daily walks and feeding routines to understanding dog behavior and, most importantly, giving plenty of love and attention. I also have experience providing overnight care for other people's dogs. I know how important it is to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for a dog in a new space, and I'm committed to maintaining your dog's schedule to make them feel secure and right at home. I am currently a college student and I am looking to earn extra cash over my breaks when I am visiting home and I do have a lot of free time. When your dog stays with me, they are treated like a member of my own family. My goal is to be their "home away from home."

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life. I’m currently 19, so 19 years of loving dogs all sizes and breeds. I’ve actually dog sat for 3 family friends here and there for about 5 years and would love to do the same for someone else who may need it as well!! I’m currently in school to become a vet technician as well! I love animals any kind and would love to get to love your animals just like they’re my own!! I’m currently working part time tropical smoothie! However, I can attend to your animal whenever they may need within my availability! I really would love to go on walks no matter the weather and even play with your pup. I love running and am very active so I would be the same with your pup if they allow me! Just gives me more cardio in the end lol! I would love to just hangout and play with your pup all day!! I do not care for pets in my own home. However, I will do my best to accommodate to your home and what i’ll need to do to take care of your pup the best!

“Kayla is so patient with my little barker. She is great with communication and just an overall pleasant person. I will be using her again.”

About: My cousins and friends relied on me to take care of their pets when they went on vacation so I have experience and am a trusted individual to help when you are not at home. I am working a 2nd shift schedule so I am available when most people are working during the weekdays on a first shift work schedule. I make sure that pets are fed on time, taken outside so they can use the bathroom and loved so they don’t feel sad/lonely without their family.

“Leah was super dependable and delivered on her care! She played with them twice a day and have them plenty of attention. My cats were as happy as they were before we left.”

About: Dogs, cats & birds have been my life’s passion for over 45 years. I’ve rescued, rehabilitated, and rehomed more than 100 dogs, cats, kittens, puppies & birds—providing medical care, stability, and love every step of the way. I’ve trained everything from energetic puppies to adult dogs, birds, and even cats, always tailoring my approach to each animal’s personality. I’m also skilled in giving medications, shots, and IV fluids, and I’m experienced with special-needs pets—those with seizures, hearing loss, food sensitivities, or emotional trauma. I’ve never turned away an animal in need, no matter how inconvenient or challenging the situation. My commitment runs deep—every rescue has taught me something, and each one holds a special place in my heart. As a lifelong pet parent and rescuer, I understand the trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I follow each owner’s routines and training guidelines closely to ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’d be honored to give your furry (or feathered!) family member the same care and devotion I give my own! Available most days with notice. I currently provide heath care for my father & I have my own pack of 3 dogs & 2 cats. I will pay close attention to the parents requests, schedule &/or medical needs. I have nothing but great respect for the clients rules& home. I promise you to provide an experience we’re all the clients needs are met!

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 8 and spent a summer in high school raising my family’s new puppy. My family has had frenchies, a labradoodle, and a corgi/beagle mix I have experience with small dogs such as frenchies and larger dogs as well. I work full time, 8 AM - 5 PM. I also am a mom to an infant. I am available for drop ins, and for walking as needed. Although I do not offer services in my home, due to my cat being afraid of other animals, I will treat your home as my own. I am experienced with house sitting and take pride in making sure you never have to worry about anything while away.

About: I've taken care of dogs for my whole life. I've grown up and comfortable with dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, fish, horses, chickens etc. I've worked with Petsmart for 4 years now. I've grown up around rescued dogs which made me very used to scared/semi-aggressive dogs. I've also been used to having old dogs, so I understand medication times, helping them use the bathroom, getting them around the house, and the patience it takes. And for energetic dogs, I'm a very active person and walk 4 miles daily in my free time, so if you need them to wind down, I'm here to help! I am a college student, but I'll have my car with me and will be there if you need it, as long as I know in advance my schedule can work with yours! I work Doordash, Rover, and at a Daycare. I will NOT be running Doordash while providing a service to you, the daycare closes M-F at 5:30 and isnt open on the weekends. The rest of my day will be dedicated to care and love for your pet! In your home I will stick by your usual routine. Times they eat, go outside, walk, etc. I focus on making your pets happy. If they act like they need to go outside, I will drop everything to take them. You can expect everything placed back in order from when you left. I dont like messes in my home, especially when coming back from traveling or a long day at work, you can ensure a clean environment waiting for you, as if no one was even there.

“Emma communicated with us and was prompt with arriving at the scheduled times. We enjoyed the pictures she sent and our dogs were seen playing in the yard as they would if we were home. Emma was professional and seemed to enjoy our dogs. We will use her services again in the future.”

About: Northeast Ohio Native! I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have experience caring for many different types of pets.

About: Hi there! My name is Ireland, if you ever need someone to check in on your furry one during the day, I’d love to help. I’ve been the go‑to dog walker and pet‑check‑in person for neighbors for over 10 years, and caring for furry friends has genuinely become one of my favorite parts of life. I’m extremely reliable, consistent, and always treat every dog like they’re one of my own and trust me, mine set the bar high. I currently have two big, lovable goofballs at home: a Saint Bernedoodle and a Golden Doodle, both tipping the scales at over 100 pounds. So whether your pup is tiny, timid, energetic, or extra‑large, I’m fully prepared and experienced. If you’re looking for someone who shows up, pays attention, and makes your dog feel safe, happy, and loved, I’m your girl. Big dogs, small dogs, shy dogs, wild dogs - I walk them all like they’re my own. ❣️ I’m currently attending Cleveland State University’s Accelerated Nursing Program, and because the program is fully online, it gives me incredible flexibility throughout the day. I’m able to structure my coursework around your pet’s needs, which means I can reliably stop in for walks, check‑ins, feedings, or whatever support your family needs. Caring for animals fits naturally into my daily routine, and I love having that balance of studying and spending time with your furry one. When I’m caring for a pet whether in my home or yours my approach is simple: treat them like family and keep their routine steady, safe, and stress‑free. • Routine consistency - I follow your pet’s normal schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, and playtime so everything feels familiar and comforting. • Detailed communication - You’ll get updates, photos, and notes so you always know how your furry one is doing. • Respect for your space - I keep your home tidy, follow all house rules, and make sure your pet’s environment stays clean and safe. • Behavior + comfort check‑ins - I pay attention to mood, appetite, energy, and any changes so you’re always in the loop. • Experience with large breeds I currently own two gentle giants a Saint Bernedoodle and a Goldendoodle, both over 100 lbs so I’m very comfortable managing big personalities and big paws. • Play, enrichment, and affection - Walks, mental stimulation, cuddles, and attention are all part of the package. • Cleanliness + comfort - Fresh water, clean bowls, cozy rest spots, and a calm environment are always maintained. Why You Can Trust Me: • 10+ years of experience caring for neighbors’ pets • Extremely reliable. I show up, communicate, and follow through. • Comfortable with all sizes — from tiny pups to 100+ lb doodles. • Genuine love for animals — I treat every pet like it’s my own.
