11. Alexis B.
About: I went to school to be a veterinary assistant so I’m quite knowledgeable in animals and basic first aid. I love all animals and im responsible. I currently only work 4 days so I’m more than available at anytime I’m off. I also work at 2 so I could always do a little bit in the morning I live out in the country so I never have to worry about my dog getting out and getting hurt. I also love running so if your doggo wants to, too they can.


12. Emily A.

“Emily always takes such care and time with our cat clan. They always seem no worse for wear when we return and it gives us great peace of mind.”


13. Savannah M.

“Savannah was an amazing solution to my fairly last minute request to feed, walk and play with my pup. She was extremely professional and clearly great with dogs. She gave us updates via text and sent multiple pictures of our pup to let us know everything was okay. I would definitely recommend her services and will book her again the next time I need dog sitting services!”


14. Gabrielle L.

“Gabby is a fantastic sitter, my boy Deke is always shy when he meets new people but immediately took to Gabby which goes to show how amazing she is with animals. She has timely communication and gives my deke all the love and play during her visit! It’s such a weight off my shoulders knowing Gabby is stopping in to spend time with him!”


15. Sarah G.

“Sarah is amazing. Her attention to detail every time she cares for my Cocoa and JoJo puts me completely at ease. I recommend her highly because she is so caring, professional and dedicated to all animals.”


16. Ayanna F.
About: I love dogs and my father always had dogs around and I loved to walk them and play with them. I am gentle when I am dealing with a puppy but I am also very playful. I love the outdoors and going on long walks. I would love to become friends with a lot of friendly dogs that would love to become friends with me. I am outgoing and I am very active. I also work at a fast food restaurant at the moment and i am planning on going to Cleveland State University but my hours are very flexible. I got this app because I love interacting with animals especially dogs they are a guys best friend. But I am happy if you choose me to watch and play with you dog. I am currently working part time so if you communicate your needs I can accommodate my schedule for you. I am pregnant so I do have days where I have appointments but they aren’t too long but I will let you know ahead of time when booking with me. I live in an apartment but there is plenty of other places to walk as well as parks around me. Also I can do short car rides if your dog likes that as well.


17. Garrett K.

“Garrett was such a a great sitter for my cats. He was punctual, respectful, communicative, and friendly. He spent time letting me kitties get to know him, and sent me photos regularly. He fed and watered them, and even brought in packages a couple of times. 10/10 recommend him for your pets needs.”


18. Autumn P.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a young girl. I have had two dogs growing up, a miniature schnauzer and a beagle. I have paid close attention to their every need, cared for them, played with them and of course made them feel loved. I have watched my neighbors dog while they were oh vacation. I have also taken care of my friends dogs. I am a dog mom and a lover of dogs who has a lot of experience taking care of them. I love it! I am currently working part time so I will have a lot of free time to care for, play with and walk dogs. They will have my attention and focus. I have a beagle who is one. There is space for them to play together and I live 2 minutes from a huge dog park where they can let out their energy and have even more space to run free. If you like your dog separated I can have mine in her gated area :)


19. Kathryn T.
“Kathryn responded quickly to my query, even though it was a holiday. A few days later, on the appointed day, she dropped in and let my dogs out, messaged me, and sent photos. When my travel schedule shifted because of inclement weather, she was very flexible about shifting the drop-in time. Very professional. Highly recommended!”


20. Melissa H.

“Melissa is amazing! My kitten had been through a blood transfusion and needed to have liquid medication given twice a day. Melissa was eager and willing to help! Melissa ensured that my kitten was well cared for when my husband and I were out of town and she kept me well updated on everything and sent me some pictures to help with my anxiousness about leaving. We even found out that we would be getting home later and she was flexible and willing to come one more time to visit Henry in order to make sure he could get his medication before we arrived home. I would highly recommend choosing Melissa to watch over and care for your pet, I am very thankful for her!”
