House Sitting in Bay Village

“August was wonderful with my fur baby and my home. It was so much easier to just leave and go on vacation instead of packing my dog up with all her stuff and trying to pick her up. I think it was less stressful for both of us. I definitely will be using August in the future.”

About: Hello, My name is Maggie and I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes for over five years. I have experience with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and making pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I also have pets of my own, so I understand the importance of giving animals patience, attention, and love. I’m dependable, responsible, and committed to keeping pets safe and happy. * I also have experience with administering medications; I have done pills and I have also done insulin shots for a dog that has diabetes that I regularly watch!! I currently babysit part time, thursdays 8-4 and fridays 9-3, but I am available every other day during the whole week. I am available to make up to 4 visits. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for every pet I care for. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision while keeping their safety my top priority in both my home and the client’s home. I have a young dog and a cat in my home to keep your pets company. I also love to take my pup to the park or to get pup cups and she would love to have a friend!

“Tiffany was great housesitting with our two cats, one of which has kidney problems. She was very responsive to our needs and impressed us with her care and competence. She would be our first choice when we need someone to housesit with our cats again.”

“Leslie was very patient with my reactive dog while he warmed up to her! She stayed with him for over a week at my home and left it clean and he was happy’”

Annie K.

“Alicia was great! I could tell from the pictures that our pups felt comfortable and at ease with her. When we came home, the dogs and cats all were happy to see us and were calm. I could tell she took excellent care of them because they were all happy and relaxed when we got home(and three of them have anxiety). Our house was clean and everything how we left it. 100% recommend to anyone looking for high quality care! Will definitely call her again for future pet sitting needs.”

“She was so communicative the entire time I was gone and took such good care of my pets! It was so comforting to know they were taken such good care of!”

Abby C.

“Having Madi stay with our dogs was fabulous! They were happy and well taken care of. There was no hunger strike or readjustment period as in the past :) Madi was great with communication!”

Brent A.

“Maddie was fantastic! She was highly proactive with outreach and made sure to ask lots of questions. She was prompt with a meet and greet and made sure to keep our dog comfortable, giving her all the attention needed and handling things according to our instructions. She was kind, responsive and communicative throughout. We came home to a very happy dog - we wouldn’t hesitate a second to have her back over!”

Connor P.

“Keith was very responsive and available to come to our home to meet Abbot before our trip. When we left for our trip, he arrived at our home on time, let me know he was here, and sent pics of the dogs. He maintained regular communication and pictures even though we were only gone two days. He was schedule was accomodating if we ran into weather issues, which luckily we did not. He let me know when he left the house and it was in the exact same condition as when we left. We were comfortable having him our home and will use him again on our next trip.”

About: I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember! I have taken care of dogs of all ages from little puppies to cute oldie senior pups. I have experience and comfortability with giving meds, going on long walks, and playing with lots and lots of toys. When I was little I would take care of my neighbors dogs with basic responsibilities like letting them outside and feeding them, which made my love for dogs grow even more. I started a summer "business" with my sister and friend just trying to find an excuse to play with the neighborhood dogs. I even got to take my love into a career when I worked in a vet clinic for almost two years during covid. When owners were not allowed into the building, I would be the one to love, hold and play with the animals during the appointment time so that they were still taken care of. I also worked down in the boarding facility, feeding, cleaning, and walking a ton of dogs who all needed to stretch their legs a little. I take time with each animal as much as possible, so not only do they get to spend time with someone, but they get to spend time with someone who actively is just as excited to see them! I currently work part time, mostly mornings, so any visits in the afternoon or evening would be perfect for my schedule! I get my schedule as early as three weeks in advance, so I know exactly when I am free about then. I can also stay with dogs, but need to be able to leave in the early morning but usually isn't a problem! I have done lots of combination house sitting and pet sitting for many of my neighbors throughout the years! I always clean up after myself, and leave the place better than I found it. I can also do some odd chores here or there if you would like, I have watered lots of plants! Keeping the pet in the comfortable environment is most important to me, as that is their home and I want them to be as cozy as possible while I am there.

“Madelyn Was wonderful with the animals. First day was the hardest until we all were on the same page. She did a great job. House was left nice and she attended to the animals. We have two cats and a dog who’s kind of needy. She is very sweet girl and very responsible, and I felt that we can trust her. We will definitely use Maddie again.”

KATHY U.

“Liz was outstanding! Her communication was excellent and she took wonderful care of our furry family member for us! Highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my professional experience as an animal keeper, where attention to detail, behavior observation, and quality care are essential every day. I’ve owned and cared for dogs throughout my life and genuinely enjoy being around them, whether at dog parks, beaches, or dog-friendly spaces. Even without a dog of my own currently, I stay actively connected to dogs and understand the exercise, enrichment, patience, and companionship they need to thrive. I currently work full time as a professional animal keeper, but I’m excited to spend my free time caring for even more animals. I’m available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks outside of my work hours, and I bring the same level of attentiveness, reliability, and compassion to pets that I do in my professional animal care career. I understand the importance of trust, responsibility, and attention to detail when caring for animals in someone else’s home. I am reliable, respectful of clients’ spaces, and committed to providing attentive monitoring, consistent care, and peace of mind while pets are in my care. I currently care for two cats, a lizard, and a boa, which has given me firsthand experience with the unique needs, behaviors, and routines of a variety of animals. Caring for such different species has strengthened my understanding that every pet is an individual and deserves personalized, attentive care tailored to their specific personality and needs.

“Joy did a wonderful job with my pups while I was away for nearly 2weeks. Unexpectedly she had to take my one to the vet as we noticed something just the day before I had to leave. She kept me fully updated along the way and I felt a lot better knowing she would show the same amount of concern and care as I would. I received frequent updates and lots of pictures too! My dogs are definitely a handful and take a good amount of patience, so I really appreciate all that she does for me. I would definitely have Joy stay at my house any time I am in need of a kind hearted pet lover.”

“Maddie was amazing!! She was so friendly, flexible, and loving toward my dog, Finley. I’m usually very anxious about leaving Finley with someone new, but Maddie completely reassured me - she checked in often and sent photos as requested without any hesitation.😊 I could tell Finley was in great hands and well cared for. I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you, Maddie! 🐾”

Renee A.

“If I could rate her 20 stars I would! She cared for my dog Vito while I was on a vacation and he had so many adventures with her and her dogs. He was very comfy with her both in my home at night and at her house during the day and she followed all my instructions and even gave me some cool new ideas to implement into our relationship with him now.”

Mike H.

“Great dog sitter and fast response. Sharon has been in constant communication and send pictures daily. I have even extended my days and she is my favorite sitter on here. Highly recommend her. I have rebooked her for many more jobs!”

Tiffany N.

“Christabel was great with my cats, and she was very communicative during my trip. I appreciated her ability to take my booking, even though it was last minute. I will definitely keep her in mind for future trips!”

“Jennifer was amazing watching our pup, Callie, overnight at our home! This was the first time we left Callie with someone other than family overnight, so I was a bit of a worry wart. But, Jennifer put my nerves at ease - she updated me with adorable photos of them playing, so I knew Callie was not only safe, but also having so much fun! She fed her and walked her as well! I’d absolutely have Jennifer watch Callie again and would highly recommend her to everyone! :)”

“Emily was so amazing with our two older rescues! The dogs took to her right away and we felt super comfortable leaving them with her. She kept us updated during our trip and sent us photos.. couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Highly recommend.”
