“Well, I already wrote a raving review for Avery and then my app crashed haha. I guess I will simplify it this time around. Avery eased my mind with leaving behind our puppy for the first time. We received tons of photos and updates on their adventures throughout the day. We will use Avery every time we can for future pet sitting needs!”

“Emily is a wonderful housesitter! She communicated with me the week that I was on vacation about my cat and sent pictures daily. My boy was well taken care of and the peace of mind knowing he didn't have to spend a lot of time alone made a big difference. Emily visited us several days before her stay to meet my little guy and made sure she was familiar with his needs. She left the home immaculate as well. I highly recommend Emily for any pet needs and will definitely contact her when I have travel plans again.”

“James is the best!! He has taken care of my reactive, anxious, senior pup and my senior cat many times. I can comfortable travel internationally for over a week without any worries. My pets love James so much and he’s an amazing house guest. Can’t recommend him highly enough!”


About: I was raised in a house with chickens, parrots, snakes, frogs and of course dogs and cats! I feel comfortable around any kind of dog or cat, no matter how shy or excitable. Any age group I am adept at handling as well, as I have a lot of experience caring for young animals I am free most days of the week. Thursday’s, Friday’s, and weekends are all wide open. My schedule is very flexible, just let me know! I can crate or walk your dog, and have no trouble cleaning up after or feeding a dog as well. I am great at playing with dogs, and making them listen to me.

“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!”


About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and grew up helping care for my own pets, taking on a larger role in their daily routines about six years ago. Over the past two years, I’ve also provided reliable pet and house sitting for family and friends. Through these experiences, I’ve become comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and pet transportation. I have experience with both small and large dogs (growing up with a miniature sheltie and a black lab)! As the families I’ve provided pet care services for have grown, I also have gained experience providing care for senior dogs. I treat every pet like my own and aim to make them feel comfortable while you’re away! I am currently a graduate student and GA at John Carroll, so I am only away from 12-5 Tuesday- Friday, so I have a very flexible schedule to take care of your pets while you’re at work or away! I also am available almost always on weekends for walks and check ins. When caring for pets in a clients home, I focus on keeping their routines as consistent as possible. I am attentive to detailed instruction and preferences, and take safety very seriously. I am mindful of keeping doors and gates secure, monitoring pets during walks or outdoors, and making sure their (and your) space stays clean and safe. I respect your home just as much as your pet, and I make sure to communicate regularly with updates for your peace of mind.
“Another great stay from Breon! Thank you for watching my babies while we were on an international trip. We received daily pictures, videos, and reassurance. We appreciate you watching the house and making sure everything was perfect for when we returned home!! Thank you so so much!! Highly recommend Breon!!”

“Emily was great! She sent lots of pictures and made sure my dogs were taken care of while I was out of town, especially when one wasn’t feeling well. I would definitely have her pet sit again!”

“Thank you so much for taking care of the dogs. We came home. Everything was tidy and neat. Everything had been well taken care of and we could tell that our pups were very happy and loved.”

“Alexis was amazing and the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were well taken care of, and they loved her! Can’t recommend Alexis enough!”
“Aspen was fantastic with the animals, frequent check-ins and so respectful of our home. We'd be delighted to have Aspen back for a future trip”
“We love Angela and so does our dog Skippy and even our fiesty calico cat Daisy! Angela graciously agreed to meet us and our pets ahead of our trip and provided great communication while we were away. Highly recommend.”


About: Hi, My most recent experience has been long term care for friends and families dogs. I offer to walk dogs multiple times a day, as well as check in multiple times a day. I also offer personalized behavioral training a recommendations. I have particular experience with behavioral issues like separation anxiety and difficulties walking on a leash and getting overwhelmed with various stimuli. Previously, I fostered large dogs with behavioral issues for the SPCA for 5 years. I have experience with dogs that are reactive, anxiety ridden and once with medical issues. I fostered the dogs until the issues are either managed or resolved and they are ready for adoption. I have experience primarily with large dogs. I am used to long walks and hikes with dogs. I primarily keeps dogs on leash but in the right circumstances I will let them off leash. However, I am very picky. I am open to walking l, check-ins and boarding. I’m in class a few times a month and working 1-2 days a week so I have times of availability to care for your pup. Thank you for considering me, Celine I’m a graduate student with minimal in class time so I have plenty of time to play and cuddle your pup. I love long walks and play time. I enjoy finding engaging activities that keep them mentally stimulated. I would like to get a sense of your pup and aspects of their care that are most important to you. This could be frequency of walking, caring for behavioral issues or simply giving them lots of cuddles. I can be in your hole where your pup is most comfortable or bring them to mine.

“Elizabeth took great care of our 2 year old dog, Rory. She was completely reliable, sent lots of pictures, and we could tell he was well loved when we returned home. She left our house very clean and communicated well with lots of pictures while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets of all types for over 10 years! I understand it is a huge act of trust to hire a pet-sitter, and I’m determined to do everything possible to put your mind at ease! I’m available for weekdays and weekends! I’m off work for the next two months, meaning I have plenty of time to care for your pet :) I am happy to come to your space and work with your pet’s specific needs! I provide walks, feedings, play time, cuddles on the couch, or a quick drive-by to build trust.
“Octavia took such good care of our 3 pups while my family and I were out of the country. She contacted me with any questions, sent lots of pics/updates, and the house was clean and tidy when we returned. I highly recommend Octavia!”

Taylor did a wonderful job taking care of our 4 yr old Bernadoodle for a long weekend! She was easy to communicate with and kept me updated throughout her time with him. She was attuned to his emotions and noticed when he needed a different environment. We so appreciated her going out of her way to ensure he was able to relax while we were gone. I would 100% recommend Taylor and rebook with her again!

Sarah took really great care of our dogs! I arrived home to happy pups 🤍. Sarah communicated frequently and provided daily updates, which I love. She left the house clean (seriously couldn’t even tell someone stayed there). I will definitely recommend her to friend and use her again in the future.

Carla was fantastic! I felt really at ease knowing she was with my dog Kiwi when I had a last minute request. She was super communicative and I really appreciate how much TLC Kiwi got while I was gone, and loved the pictures! 10/10 experience would absolutely recommend.

Lydia did an excellent job! She communicated well, sent us lots of pictures, and asked all kinds of questions to ensure she was providing the best care possible. We appreciated her flexibility, friendliness, and holistic care for our pup. Glad to have her back in the future!

Aashna is the perfect sitter for my 4 year old Pom Gus. She’s very punctual , and I can tell from the pictures she sent that Gus was comfortable and happy around her. She followed his care instructions really well and communicated regularly. I would 100% use her again and I highly recommend her.

Georgia did a great job watching our pup while we were traveling for the week. She kept her fed and happy, and even helped with last minute medications. She was very clear and consistent in communication and made it so we never doubted the standard of care our dog was receiving.
