Cat Sitting Chagrin Falls

About: I have over two decades of experience as a pet sitter for clients and friends. Dogs staying with me can expect lots of attention, love and walks. As a devoted companion to your companion you can expect responsive communication, care the way you request it and flexibility in scheduling. I am happy to work with pets who have quirks or special needs and am experienced in giving medication, including insulin. I am available 24/7 and will let you know in advance if there is a scheduling conflict, as far as days or time of day; I can be flexible if your schedule varies or if you extend or shorten your time away. Your pet is my priority. We will take frequent walks and spend the day together; happy to reinforce training, work on socialization, whatever is helpful for you. Care is centered around the needs of each pet, keeping to your pet's routine. My home is a ranch home (one level) with a large yard, nestled in a quiet area free of traffic and perfect for long or short walks. My house is clean and safe and I am set up and happy to do baths, shampoo and conditioner with a blow dry. Care is centered around your pet's routine. Dogs staying here leave happy and perhaps a bit spoiled.

“Preston was an outstanding dog sitter over the Fourth of July holiday! From the very beginning, he went above and beyond by taking the time to meet our dogs beforehand, which made us feel completely at ease. Throughout our time away, he was incredibly caring, attentive, and communicative. When a storm blew through and knocked over our patio umbrella, breaking the glass table, Preston let us know right away and kept us updated on everything. We really appreciated his honesty and prompt communication during an unexpected situation. It’s clear that Preston genuinely cares about the pets he looks after. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and compassionate dog sitter!”

“Beth was fantastic. Our dog can sometimes be aloof and cautious with people, but I could tell from the updates and when we returned, he was happy and much less stressed from other times we have left him.”

“Joel is awesome. Super nice guy, good communicator, easy to work with & has taken great care of our pup. Gives solid updates at the end of each visit. He goes above and beyond while dropping in at your house. For example - our dog got into our garbage before one visit & Joel cleaned up all the trash off the floor. We appreciate the care he takes in looking after our pup as well as our home. Definitely recommend!”

“Carlin did a wonderful job taking care of our cats during our vacation. One cat was hiding and she made a big effort to find him to make sure he was safe. I can’t thank her enough for her time and attention to them.”

“Megan took care of my boy perfectly! He takes meds and can be fussy, but she handled that task beautifully. This was Megan's first visit and I could not be more happy! Thank you for taking care of my boy as if he is your own!”

“Lorene did a great job taking care of my cat. She was very kind and patient, and took the time to play with my cat and help her slowly get familiar and comfortable with her. I really appreciate her care!”

About: My whole life I’ve been obsessed with animals. I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, horses, etc. I am a proud contributor to an animal foster and rehabilitation group. I also worked in a dog and cat boarding and daycare facility. I am used to having to take care of my foster dogs on a full time level, while also balancing other responsibilities. Additionally, I have experience distributing medications, taking care of special needs animals, animals with special food and dietary needs, etc. I am currently working part time and do online schooling! I have no issue going from work straight to your pets! I have a pretty flexible schedule and will do my best to accommodate to you and your pets needs! I treat your home and pets like I would my own. I believe playtime, walks, and cuddles are top priority in keeping your pets happy while you’re away! I also believe in leaving your home in great condition! This ensures when you get home you have more time with your animals.

“Debbie took phenomenal care of our dog. Her updates gave us so much peace of mind, and we’d absolutely book with her again.”

“Beth was wonderful! She came twice a day to feed/water/scoop for our two kitties while we were away. We received lots of updates and photos. The cats loved her and we were very happy with her care.”

Sheryl M.

“Lauren was amazing! Gordie loved her and she gladly came to meet me before our appointment. Her ability to alleviate my stress made all the difference. Will gladly rebook with her!”

Mackenzie G.

“Ben is always so attentive when he does drop-in visits with our dog. I can trust that Ben truly cares for our pet. He is the first person we ask to check in on our dog if we're out of town for the night!”

About: I have a sweet beagle that was rescued 7 years ago. I am fully responsible for his care, including feeding, walking, bathing, nail trimming, etc. I always check him for ticks after visiting a park and know how to safely remove them. I enjoy going for long walks, especially in summer, so would be glad to give your dog exercise. My kids have had goats, rabbits, chickens, turkeys, and ducks, which are all fun to play with, and I would be glad to care for your less-typical pets, if needed. I have even cared for lizards and snakes. I am a teacher, so have loads of time available in the summer. During the school year, I am available most weekends and after 4 on weekdays. I always keep dogs on leash when walking them...you never know when a squirrel or other dog will come by or how they will react.

“Emily was great! She was gentle with our old cats and helped with a few extras.”

“Excellent care and attention! Thank you Matthew”

About: growing up with a family dog, i’ve always looked forward to our long walks. since i've moved to care for my grandma & i can’t have a pet at my current home, i’m looking to be the dedicated adventure buddy your pup deserves! i’m an avid walker who cleans up after your pet & loves exploring local parks and trails, and i’m just as comfortable handling a brisk, high-energy trek as i am a slow, 'sniff-heavy' stroll for seniors or four legged friends who love getting distracted! HOT WEATHER: for dog-friendly clients, i am able to provide outings to low stress trips to uncrowded, pet-friendly stores/facilities for stimulation and enrichment (including a potty break outside before and after, of course!) i am also happy to walk earlier/later in the day to avoid the heat as well! i also enjoy keeping pets company in home, whether its playing with toys, using lick mats, or just spending some time together! because i work evening and overnight shifts, i have guaranteed availability every morning and midday for your dog’s routine. whether you need a recurring daily walker or a same-day visit because you’re running late, i'm local and ready to jump in! my current job is closing in a few months, so i’ll be even more available for your schedule soon :) in public, i use a short-leash grip, stay hyper-aware of our surroundings without distractions like phones/technology of any kind (aside from photos, of course!), and avoid unknown dogs to keep your pup protected. i pride myself on being a trustworthy, punctual communicator, providing frequent photo updates so you’re always in the loop. i am very confident in my ability to kennel/leash pets & i consider myself well-versed in administering medication. i am keen when reading animal stress signals, ensuring your pet feels safe and understood under my care! as of early may, i am taking dog training certification courses to better my understanding and confidence in dog training :)

About: While growing up, I fed, watered, played with, and walked our family friends. I even picked up poop! As an adult, I've done it all, from cleaning major messes to administering meds. I love canines and felines of all varieties, from the smallest to the largest! I am available to care for your pet(s) throughout the business day. Although I am also doing some volunteer work, I keep a regular schedule. I will care for your pets according to your express instructions. They will be treated as my own with as much love and concern as I can provide.

About: I grew up with 3 dogs (2 rhodesian ridgebacks, and one mutt). When my family travels, I often house & pet sit the dog and cats. I have experience walking dogs of many sizes, and know basic commands. I am also comfortable with cats, as I grew up with them as well. I work from my home, so I have flexibility to walk around my daily meeting schedule. I truly miss having a dog of my own, but have a tricky travel schedule that does not allow it now :( I usually know my meeting schedule a few days in advance, and in general it is pretty regular. I can usually end my day by 4 pm and start earlier, around 7 am. Looking forward to working with you and your dog!

About: I live in an apartment at Kent State and am back and forth from Solon in the summer! My dog at my parents home is very reactive and we have been with many trainers to calm him down. I have much experience with dogs like him and learned from trainers. I have sat for various owners over the last few years and always enjoy keeping animals company! I am a college student! I live in a pet friendly apartment with a nice outside area. I have a very open schedule and would be open to helping anyone out at any time! I always make sure to have the pet's water and food stalked up and clean up the surrounding areas for the owner. I always make sure to leave the space looking better than when I arrived. I cannot house pets at my home due to my reactive animal but I am 100% willing to come to you!

About: I love animals but most of dogs because they keep me in a good mood. I make sure that dogs eat , get the right exercise, and got to the bathroom on time. I also own a dog of my own back my hometown. And we have a great relationship! I know what she wants just by her body language and her speaking to me lol kind of cute. Dogs are like humans. I love to play with dogs. Dogs give me a since of joy and calmness because I know when they are taken care of they trust me. I make sure that dogs retrieve the right nutrients that they will need as requested by the dogs owner. Dogs are my best friends. Safe!
