“I am so thankful to have had Kristi house sit and care for my fur babies, she kept them engaged the whole time to the point where my son's and I were joking how the dogs are going to want to live with Kristi. She not only played with them, worked on tricks with them but also loved on them and we received daily pictures and updates. She even cleaned!!!! She gardened and planted plants for me. All things that needed my attention and did not get until Kristi showed up. She even found and picked up glass that was in my backyard that the dirt had been throwing up from previous owners. She went WAY ABOVE AND BEYOND!!! She made me feel safe and comfortable that everything was and would be OK. We LOVE YOU KRISTY ?”


“Paige was great from her initial visit with Buster up until we got home. She proved us wonderful pictures and updates of Buster while we were gone.”


“Jacinda was great with our pups and sent us a ton of photos and videos while we were away! We’d definitely use her again as a house sitter!”


“Jeanne was so good with my animals. One of my dogs can be nervous around some people and she loved Jeanne instantly! I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care and will definitely do it again!”



“Samm did a wonderful job taking care of our house and pets while we were away. Two of the cats needed medicine and she made sure it was given correctly. Samm sent pictures of the pets and kept us updated everyday. She played ball with the dog and he loved her! Would definitely recommend Samm to care for your pets!”


“Cara is fantastic! Had a great vibe from her the moment we met. She kept my house neat and clean and my girls (dogs) LOVED her! They were so comfortable with her and happy at home with Cara that they weren’t that excited when I got home from vacation! Hire her—your pets (& house) will be in great hands.”


“So lucky we found Cindy! Cindy was the perfect dog sitter for my moody little guy. He was immediately taken with her and Cindy did a great job at getting Brownie to feel confortable with her. I was out of town for four days and felt very comfortable leaving Brownie with Cindy. I got regular text messages and pictures of Brownie updating me about their day. I’ll definitely reach out to Cindy again the next time we go out of town.”


“We greatly appreciated Livana staying with our Tank. He was so happy to go on walks and play with his toys while we were away. Livana took great care of him. She sent us updates and pictures the entire time and we couldn’t thank her enough.”


About: Hello families! My name is Tanner. I am currently majoring in psychology at Youngstown State University. I graduated from Ursuline High School in 2022. I have much experience pet sitting for many neighbors and different families. I have experience administering medications to different pets and can follow schedules well. I can provide references and background clearances upon request. I am available for drop in visits and overnight stays for pets that might need a little extra love! Feel free to reach out with any questions! I am looking to be a pet sitter full time or drop ins Saturdays and Sundays. I am flexible with my schedule so we can work out any times needed I make sure they get lots of love, pets, and plenty of exercise or playtime but ultimately whatever the dog needs is what I will stick with.

About: I have taken care of family pets since I was young. As I grew older, I adopted my own pets and have volunteered in animal shelters as well. I have always had dogs and cats in my life and it has grown to guinea pigs and a bearded dragon. I'm able to give baths, do walks, and bathroom breaks and provide ample amounts of play time. I am available for Labor Day weekend! I am also a full time stay at home mother so currently all of my days and times of the week are free and open, even weekends. I let all of my animals on my furniture if they want in my home. They all have their special homes and spots where they can be in peace until they come out with the rest of the family. My home is kept clear of dangerous items, tiny small toys for example that pets might eat.

“This was the first time I’ve ever had a dog/house sitter, but I knew it was the right thing for Ranger. Cyndi was great! Kept in touch. Left my home cleaner than when I left it. And I know Ranger was happy, safe and well taken care of. I’ll definitely feel comfortable with this service in the future and Cyndi for sure!”


“Lydia is amazing!! She’s watched our fur baby many times, always goes above & beyond. She even helped us out last minute. When we’re away I feel at ease knowing our dog is in good hands with her. She even sends pictures & gives updates on how everything is going. Couldn’t recommend her enough!!!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of friends and family my whole life. I currently have 2 German shepherds! I have trained my German shepherds to have the best of manners! And I will gladly take care of your dogs like they are my own! They will enjoy walks and lots of playtime! I don’t mind giving medication if needed or any special needs your dog may need. I currently work midnights 3 days a week. On my off days I can care for your pet like they are my own with daily walks and lots of play time. I will care for your pets like they are my own whether it’s in your home or my home. I have 2 German shepherds at my house that love to play with other dogs. My dogs go to daycare routinely and are around all dogs of all shapes and sizes. If you’re not comfortable with my dogs in the house I can watch and board them at yours. Or I can send mine to daycare so your dog feels safe

“Haley is amazing! The communication before and during our stay was perfect. She was so patient and kind with our anxious girls. She sent many pictures, videos, and updates throughout the stay. We felt very comfortable and happy knowing they were safe with her, and we returned to very happy and loved puppies.”


“Chirstina watched my two dogs overnight for the first time, and they already like her more than me. Total traitors. Perhaps she'll come watch them more often!”


About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for 20 plus years for friends and family along with my own pets which include two dogs and three cats. I have trained dogs from early puppy stages and also cared for senior ages. I work Wednesday Thursday Friday I’m available after 7 pm I’m off Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday available anytime. I’m offering drop ins, sitting and walking! Your fur babies will definitely be loved and get their playtime in along with lots of treats if allowed. I have had many animals growing up dogs, cats, lizards and even a raccoon 😃 I have trained dogs from their puppy stages and loved every minute of it. You can trust that ur babies will be in good hands.. ❤️ I am currently working but I have plenty of time to give my full attention and time to your fur babies. I am available weekends! I have a big yard for your fur babies to run around in and also two dogs of my own to play along. I am also able to crate if needed!

About: I don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t taking care of animals! Whether it be while growing up or starting to dogsit/walk in high school, there was never a time a fur baby wasn’t relying on me. And I wouldn’t have it any other way! I have a flexible schedule which allows me to help out with my friends and families animals, as well as volunteer for local animal shelters. I have experience with dogs of all ages and levels of care. I know how difficult it can be to trust someone with your pet (I have used Rover myself when I go out of town) so I assure you I will provide the kind of care and attention to your pet that I would want given to my own! :) I’m currently working part time. My job offers flexible hours, so I have the opportunity to accommodate whatever schedule you and your pet require. :) I will happily go over what your pets routine is and abide by whatever you’re most comfortable with! If your dog is used to being walked at certain times, crated, etc. The well being and safety of your animal is my upmost concern so whatever you need me to do to guarantee that, is what I’ll do!

About: I have had animals my whole life and I have love for all kinds of fur babies. I can’t wait to meet yours and shower them with love and attention! I just graduated college and am applying for corporate jobs at the moment, but so far am primarily pet sitting so my schedule is very open. I do not care for pets in my home as it is a shared space with roommates and pets. Thank you for your time and understanding.

About: I grew up with an a verity of animals. I love watching and learning their different personality and just studying there behavior. Like our Human children,they all have their special individual personalities that need nurtured. I love giving animal baby updates, I'm aware of how feels to be away for long periods. I have experience with reptiles as well. I have plenty of time;. I want to do something enjoyable , productive and help other pet parents to live full lives. while furr babies live theirs. I also happy update as often as wanted I have solar cameras in my back yard, for monitoring, as well as availability to separate should a dog need that. My house has cat trees and pet furniture. My human furniture is also pet friendly. We love our cuddles and we love our space to be comfy. There is a doggy door, large fenced back yard available to pets. They have access to it while i am home. When no one is home, they are either kenneled or just put in one of the bedrooms while we are away from the house which would not be very often

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.
