About: I have my own puppy and I love her more than words can explain. She is the light of my life and my favorite person I am currently working part time as a ICU Registered Nurse, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your dogs, pups or cats I have an apartment that’s close to a walking trail and a dog park. Daily walks will be extra fun and I also have a dog they can play with


“My husband and I were traveling across country with our fur baby, Bella and he wanted to visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. They do not allow dogs (unless they are service dogs) into the hall of Fame, so as a Rover sitter myself, I looked for a sitter here. I found Pam and she was great! She provided the care and attention that Bella needed. When we left the Hall of Fame to go pick Bella up, I texted Pam to let her know we were on our way. Pam was thoughtful enough to take Bella for a walk before we picked her up and continued for a four hour drive. I highly recommend her!”


“Shirley was great with my dog Charlie. She is kind, patient, communicative and so caring. Charlie had a great time with Shirley and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!”

Dogs are loyal protectors that need to be protected. Pet care is my priority, seamlessly fitting into my daily routine with flexible hours to ensure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. I provide a safe, loving environment, follow specific care instructions, and prioritize trust to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in any setting. Don't worry.

About: I love animals, I’ve had animals in my home all my life; dogs, cats, snakes, reptiles, fish, you name it. I have always felt close to the world so I connect very well with all animals. I’ve had plenty of experience with dogs and cats as well. I’ve taken dogs I’ve just met on private walks and trained them. I also enjoy grooming, the first thing i do when I welcome a new friend is wash them—I enjoy connecting with them and having them nice and clean in my home! I have a one floor home and when I’m pet sitting they are allowed to roam freely. They are allowed on the furniture I dont mind it. Bathroom breaks are every 3-4 hours I love to have a buddy to walk with. I do sit lessons and stay lessons throughout the day with treats for encouragement! Besides that—whatever you want I will do, just let me know because I enjoy every moment. Im a stay at home mom and psych student so I am up from 7am-10pm. I enjoy doing outside activities and I miss having a buddy with me. I have a fenced backyard and I just enjoy having a buddy with me walking by my side in my home. Everything is on one floor so there’s no where else to go and get into anything without me knowing.

About: **Serious Inquiries Only *** With over 10 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I have developed a deep understanding and passion for working with small dog breeds and puppies. Throughout my career, I’ve been dedicated to providing top-tier care for both puppies and adult small breeds, helping them thrive in loving, healthy environments. I have worked extensively with a variety of small dog breeds, including Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, Yorkies, Shih Tzus, and Dachshunds. My experience spans everything from basic pet care and feeding to behavior management, training, and health monitoring. I specialize in the unique needs of small dogs, including their dietary requirements, exercise routines, and socialization skills. My approach is centered around building trust and positive relationships with the pets in my care. With puppies, I focus on early socialization, potty training, and establishing consistent routines to set them up for a well-adjusted adulthood. With adult small dogs, I work on maintaining good health, managing behavioral issues, and fostering strong bonds between pet and owner. I’m particularly passionate about understanding the individual personalities of each dog, ensuring they receive personalized care that meets their specific needs. My extensive background in pet care has allowed me to not only enhance the lives of the dogs I care for but also provide valuable advice and support to their owners, helping them navigate the joys and challenges of dog ownership. I am dedicated to provide my full attention to your pup throughout their entire stay! If it’s boarding or just a fun day at doggy day camp I can ensure your pup will have a great time! I have a fenced in back yard , plenty of toys and activities to keep your pup busy! My home has central air conditioning for hot summer days . I also have a small male shitzu to keep your pup company during their stay .

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care, patience, and attentiveness I bring to every animal I care for—treating them like family, not just a task. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of pets, including high-energy puppies and senior dogs who need extra gentleness and medical attention. I’m confident in administering medications, reinforcing basic training commands, and reading animal behavior to ensure their comfort and safety. I also provide regular updates, photos, and videos to help pet parents feel connected and at ease while they’re away. My calm presence and dependable communication make me a trusted sitter who builds long-term relationships with both pets and their humans. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because I truly enjoy being around animals. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening feedings, I structure my day to prioritize consistency and comfort for the pets I care for. I make sure they stay on their regular schedule, which helps them feel secure and at ease in my care. I also build in time for grooming, mental stimulation (like training games or enrichment toys), and plenty of affection. Even on my busiest days, pet care isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I look forward to and plan around. Whether in my home or my client’s, I create a calm, clean, and pet-safe environment where animals feel comfortable and loved. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions—so they stay relaxed and well-adjusted while their owner is away. In my home, I make sure pets have their own cozy space, access to fresh water, and a stress-free atmosphere without overwhelming noise or distractions. If I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with respect and keep everything tidy while making sure their pet feels secure and cared for in their familiar space. I also stay in touch with updates and photos so pet parents can feel at ease knowing their fur baby is in great hands.

Toerraih W.
“I wouldn’t trust just anyone with my dog, but Toerraih is truly the exception. She watched my dog while I was out of town, and I came back to a happy, relaxed pup who barely noticed I was gone! 🐾 She followed all my instructions perfectly—walk times, food portions, meds—and even sent me photo updates without me asking. I could tell she genuinely cares and connects with animals. My dog took to her immediately, and that says a lot. If you’re looking for someone responsible, patient, and loving, Toerraih is 100% the one. I recommend her to everyone I know!”

Downtown dog parents share their Rover experiences
Karlee was a delight to work with. She was kind and caring, flexible and patient. I felt very comfortable leaving my elder doggie with her, and was confident that she met his needs. I appreciated that she only took my one dog “ solo” which helps him, as he needs to have a quiet environment. Her downtown location was especially good for us, thank you, Karlee!!
