House Sitting in Drakesburg

“Lori and Daisy had a great time! Lori kept me informed while I was away with sweet photos and texts. My apartment was in great shape upon my arrival home. Bed linens washed and replaced, kitchen cleaned up and all dishes put away. I will definitely ask Lori to stay with Daisy in the future! 😊”

“Kylie did great with my animals when I was away for the weekend. Both my dog and cat can be wary of new people, but she was patient with them and they warmed up to her. I’m sure they would be happy to have her here again!”

Katelyn M.

“We had a good experience with our pups. There was a lil hiccup with her other job that impacted the review. She was apologetic and attentive. Would book again!!”

“This is my second time booking with Isabella and she was fabulous! I got regular pictures and updates of my dog and I knew she was in great hands, which made leaving a little bit easier!”

About: I have rescued two senior, nine year old, brother dogs in 2019, and they are absolutely thriving. I have also taken in a sixteen year old cat from my grandfather, and I currently live with three disabled cats. I am currently working on selling some things online, which means my schedule is completely flexible and lets me go out and take care of what I need to do, including taking care of pets! I quadruple check that all doors are closed, that there is plenty of water and food available, checking for any messes or hazards like yarn, magnets, reachable food containers, and I ALWAYS use a leash when necessary.

“Samm house sat our 3 pups for 5 days! One of our pups is a senior dog with special needs that requires drops and gel in his eyes everyday/night. All 3 pups were very well taken care of and Samm was such a sweet house guest!”

About: Hi! My name is Emma, and I am majoring in Biology with a concentration in Animal Ecology at Kent State. I am passionate about animals of all kinds, and I have experience caring for exotic as well as domestic critters through various internships and volunteering at a local animal shelter! I am a senior at Kent State graduating in December. My class schedule is pretty flexible, so I would be available certain times during the week for walking or drop-in visits. I am available on weekends for house sitting. I am committed to maintaining a safe and happy environment for your pup by following any of your directions and instructions regarding their care. I want to ensure an enriching experience for your pet that will leave them satisfied and happy for when you return to them!

About: Hello! My name is Lois and I am 25 years old. I live with my fiancé Aaron, he is a wonderful man, gentle, and kind man. His love for animals is equal to mine. I am from Pittsburgh originally but, I have since moved to North Jackson! I live in a sweet, cozy, home in the country. My property is very private, with lots of land for animals to play on safely. I will be the sole caretaker for your pet, and I am able to dedicate my full attention and provide round-the-clock care and attention for your pet. I have an almost 2 year old son, that I co-parent with his father. So he is here every other week, if you prefer to arrange a time when he is or isn’t here, for your or his safety. I 100% will do that. I currently have 2 cats and 2 dogs, all are very friendly and love other animals. They are absolutely great role models for other dogs. I occasionally foster dogs that need homes, and they are absolutely incredible. Our heeler is a very big charmer and is extremely playful. Our poodle is laid back, reserved, but definitely loves to play. They both love exploring and hiking. I am outside almost all day with them, and when it’s too hot we go out in intervals. Cool off, drink/eat, refresh, and we’re back outside playing and enjoying nature. Our closest neighbor is family, and they equally love animals, our dogs will visit for treats haha. If you’d would like our animals separate from any of your animals, I can arrange that. Just please let me know ahead of time! My experience with animals: I have been around dogs, cats, and exotic animals pretty much since I was born. I've always had a passion for animals, I truly love and value everything from the tiniest bug to the tallest horse haha. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles (venomous and non-venomous) and fish. I have trained show dogs since the age of 13, and have ethically bred and assisted many litters alongside my mother and/or equally knowledgeable/highly experienced mentors. My mother was very passionate about showing dogs and was an amazing obedience trainer. She has won many shows and competitions across the country. To the point where she had #1 dogs for breed and in obedience. I have grown up and learned many techniques from her specifically. My mother and I, also have plenty of experience with rescue work, for many years we rescued dogs from high-kill shelters, we then rehabilitated them for many months before finding their destined home. We also have done years of rescue work with cats/kittens, rescuing injured and/or abandoned cats/kittens and rehabilitating them until they were eventually ready to go to their forever homes as-well. At one point in my life, I co-founded an exotic animal transport business. We traveled the country transporting exotic animals for zoos, rescues, conservations, and private collectors. At one point, having over 100 venomous/non-venomous reptiles. Obviously, I have left that behind now that I have my son. I also have alot of experience with poultry aswell, I used to raise and rescue ducks, chickens, and turkeys! I have worked in pet stores, spend lots of spare time studying, learning, and have had a lot of incredible mentors in my life. I can give advice in foods, toys, preventatives, and lots of other animal supplies. I can also give advice on any behavioral issues that your pet may have. I am currently training my poodle to be my personal service dog. I definitely have a passion for helping animals.. I find that many animals are sadly misunderstood, but every one is just as valuable and deserving of love as the next. If you are considering me as a pet sitter, please feel free to write me with any questions you may have. I’ll respond as soon as possible! Im more than willing to work on prices as-well, it’s hard to get by nowadays and I know things are easy. I’m honestly much more interested in meeting and caring for pets than making a profit from someone who just needs some help. Please feel free to look through the gallery of my photos, I would say 90% of the animals shown were either my personal pets or rescues. Otherwise, I was pet-sitting them! :) LOISW05421, https://www.rover.com/sit/loisw05421 *Discount code* I don’t work, I am blessed to be a stay-at-home mom. I wake up at 7am and go to bed at 10pm. I have full availability! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I know how to manage dogs with anxiety, mental disorders, and some types of aggression. I have a variety of crates, if you would like me to use them. I would NEVER use a crate that is too small, and I would NEVER leave your dog alone in the crate unless you specifically request it. Your animal will be my top priority and concern, I will care and love them as if they were my own!

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s been for family, friends, or neighbors, I’ve always been the one people call when they need someone dependable and loving to look after their pets. From walking energetic pups and playing fetch at the park, to keeping senior pets comfortable with medications and gentle care, I treat every animal like my own. I’ve cared for shy rescue cats who needed extra patience, and I've spent countless hours cuddling, playing, feeding, grooming, and making sure each pet feels safe and loved while their humans are away. Over the years, I’ve provided drop-in visits, overnight care, daily walks, and even last-minute help when emergencies popped up. I truly enjoy building a bond with every pet I meet—and nothing makes me happier than earning their trust (and a tail wag or happy purr!). You can rest easy knowing your pet will be cared for with kindness, attentiveness, and lots of love. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member soon This is currently my full time job, so my priority is for you to rest easy knowing your pet will be cared for with kindness, attentiveness and lots of love! Whatever your preference is! Whether you keep your pet on lead or allow them to run freely in your yard, I have experience in both!

“Sandra is the best!! We feel very comfortable leaving our girls and our home in her hands while we are gone!”

Ian W.

“Aiden did a great job with our older dog, Gunner. Gunner is older and requires lots of attention. We really appreciated his attention and care for him. We highly recommend him !”

About: I have been around animals, exotic and domestic, since I was taken home in the carrier. Animals are my passion and there’s no animal that doesn’t need loved! I am a first responder with no set schedule, so I would like to spend my free time with animals and helping people out if they are needed. I couldn’t think of a better way to help out! I am very flexible on my off days and would be willing to go above and beyond for your pet. I understand some pets require certain things that may be different or difficult, but I would be absolutely willing to work through that! Walking dogs, doing litter boxes, playing fetch, and giving attention are all my specialties!

About: I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and respect. What sets me apart is my experience with a wide range of pets, from high-energy puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra care. I’m comfortable administering medication, handling dogs with special dietary or mobility needs, and maintaining consistent training routines if needed. Whether it’s a long walk, a quiet cuddle, or playtime in the yard, I tailor every visit to your pet’s needs. I also provide regular photo updates so you can feel connected and worry-free while you're away. Your pet’s happiness and safety are always my top priorities! I have recently decided to challenge myself to make a living from side hustles rather than a corporate job. This means I have plenty of time and availability for any of your needs! I care for your pets the same way I care for my own. At the end of the day, our pets are our babies! In your home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest—keeping things familiar to reduce stress. I respect your space, follow all instructions carefully, and make sure your pet gets one-on-one attention and care.

“Michelle did a great job with our pups! She was responsive and kept us updated on how they were doing. She was extremely respectful of our home! If it weren't for the rumpled sheets, she wouldn't have even known she was there! Highly recommend her for house sitting and any care your pups could need!”

Chelsea H.

“This was our third time having Andrew watch our dogs and our two pup love him!!! We know they are always safe and happy when he is checking in on them. One of our pups got sick and Andrew not only cleaned up and made sure she had food he took the towels and bed home and cleaned it. So sweet and we are so grateful for him!”

About: Ive had dogs all 18 years of my life. Currently I hav 5 dogs all medium sized dogs which is a lot of cleaning and attention. I have an Axolotl right now who is a few years old and have had lots of fish and a few cats over the years. Animals living with me or pets I have always considered family and I would treat anyone else pet with love, care and respect just as I would want for my own "babies". I am a college student so pet care fits into my daily life perfect and helps me make cash for college while having enough time to focus on school work. I am available as I have no other focus like a job as of right now so my hours are pretty open. I would always call or text if there was ever a concern or question and wouldnt do something that wasnt talked about before. I am always loving to animals and would never want the owner to worry about the dog or fish's safety while my care. I am loving to all animals and would be interested in working with animals i've never worked with before. I would love a chat over the phone or in person the first time and may bring my mom or boyfriend just to ensure my safety the first time us meeting but would love to go over all the do's and don's for your pet.

“She was very accommodating for a short notice arrangement! She kept us updated and sent pictures often! She was very confident and patient with our pups! We will definitely be using her again!”

Brittany Y.

“Kerri was amazing! Several fun photos of our furry babes while we were gone! It was wonderful to know they were being so wonderfully cared for while we were gone. We've asked if she was available for a future set of dates, and she was. We'll probably only ask her to watch our loves in the future. :) She was wonderful, we are so pleased to find amazing furry hello!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all different ages and size. I currently have a 3 year old mutt named George and a 5 month old black cat named Ralph. I take care of my mother’s animals anytime she goes out of town. One of my mothers German Shepards has bad hips so I am willing to be patient with your pets if they are injured or old. I also have administered medicine to dogs and cats. I have college classes from 2-6pm almost everyday but I am flexible any other time or day of the week. I am also free most weekends! My dog and cat are very friendly and get along with anyone they’ve encountered before animal or human. I am able to walk your animal and let them out whenever you request. If they have specific needs or requirements such as unique feeding needs, application of medications, or just need patience with a senior animals, I’m able to provide that. I will treat your animals with the compassion as I do my own!
