“Kelly did a great job dropping in on my boy. Her communication was fantastic leading up to the visit and afterwards. Will definitely use Kelly again for future visits.”
“Diane thank you again for checking on Violet. Your rover cards are a great way for me to know how she is doing. Your communication is awesome and you are very understanding when I have to change the schedule at the last moment.”
“Kelly was wonderful with Winston. He loved playing fetch with her. Kelly was very easy to work with, along with being helpful to work out the schedule with me. It's nice knowing your pup is in good hands while you're away.🐾”
About: My family has always had three dogs at a time, and most of them were rescues. I have been a dog lover since I was little. Dogs naturally love me. I am between jobs right now, and I want to fill that time doing what I love. Unfortunately, where I currently live does not allow dogs. I follow strict care schedules and have experience with medicated dogs. I am not trained to give injections but I'm willing to learn. My dog used to take seizure medicine daily.
“Sidnee was incredibly accommodating on short notice and did an amazing job with my furbaby. As a protective pittie mom, I was nervous, but she handled Milli wonderfully. Highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again!”
About: As a dog mom of 2 German Shorthair Pointers. These dogs have high energy and need lots of attention so I keep my energy up and stay active with them such as lots of play time and walks. Dogs are my world and I do everything to keep a smile on their face and their tails wagging :) I currently work as a part time hairstylist on the weekends but have full availability through the week Monday-Friday. If given enough notice for weekend dog sitting I can make it work I have two fur babies of my own that are very friendly and love to play inside and outside! They have their own bedroom and I offer beds and crates. I have lots of toys, extra leashes for walks and have extra cables to let them play outside. I even make homemade doggy ice cream for treats on hot sunny days! :)
About: I’ve cared for a variety of dogs and cats over the last 10 years. I have also always had dogs of my own; currently have 3 beautiful girls. I love all pets, small to big and young to old. Athletic enough for young ones’ energy and gentle enough for seniors’ care. I have a background in pet health care and have also worked at a kennel in the past. Taking care of your animals wouldn’t even be a service to me; my love for them makes it easy. I work full time, but depending on location would be able to do walks or drop-in visits on my lunch breaks. As well as before or after work, if needed. I am available for house sitting pretty much any day of the week with at least 1-day notice. I have adequate knowledge on when a dog may be feeling stressed or threatened and know how to handle the situation accordingly. I can crate your dogs, if required. I do my absolute best to avoid distractions while on walks.
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was old enough to drive. I grew up with a house full of animals and have rescued several animals. I work evenings (two days from home, two days on-site in Akron) and have flexible days to allow for daytime walks or drop-ins and overnight stays. I do my best to communicate with the client to form a plan to best suit every pet and ensure the situation is as low-stress and high-fun for all involved!
About: I have a background in caring for exotic and household pets. I have had cats growing up ever since I was little and would find strays in our yard, to the current 3 cats in our home now. I had a beagle for over 15 years, and have experience working with dogs in a boarding kennel within a veterinary clinic. I have experience working with a variety of animals including tropical saltwater fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals ranging from crocodiles to sloths and penguins. I currently have 2 lizards, a chameleon and a gecko as well. I have a background in basic training for dogs, birds and reptiles including target feeding and basic commands. I would love to come take care of your furry or scaley friends! I currently have 3 cats and 2 lizards that are taken care of on a daily basis. Each animal has their own schedule and routine that vary from eachother, so extra care is often times needed. I also recently worked for an aquarium for the past 6 years, which I was a supervisor that worked up to 12 hour days taking care of basic and advanced care needs for the animals in our facility. I can give basic medications if needed or bottle feed/syringe. I can let out your dog on a runner or lead if that is preferred. Walks are also fine, given proper training based on the specific needs of the dog. I can provide playtime and enrichment to help with extra energy that needs burned off as well.
“Cassie and her daughter, Grace, were fabulous sitters for our three Havanese. Having used Rover for over a decade for home stays, this time, we needed a sitter for just a few hours, as we visited the NFL Hall of Fame They both showed up on time and made a fabulous first impression and more importantly, our dogs immediately loved them both. They went beyond typical dog sitters with a warmth and care, I wish every dog sitter had. We felt completely comfortable with their care and I think our dogs were even disappointed when we returned. I wholeheartedly recommend Cassie for pet sitting. She's FABULOUS!!! <3”
“I loved how CJ gravitated toward Jennifer with complete trust from the first meet. Jennifer was on time, administered oral medicine as instructed, and showered us with the best dog photos we could have never captured. What a wonderful DogSitter 🩵🐶”

Jessica Z.
“From the moment we booked with Jessica, we knew our pet was in great hands. She was prompt, professional, and most importantly—kind and incredibly attentive to our pet’s needs. Jessica went above and beyond with regular updates, photos, and detailed notes that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dog took to her right away, which says a lot because he can be a bit shy with new people. She clearly has a natural connection with animals and treats them like her own. When we came home, he was calm, happy, and well cared for—exactly what every pet parent hopes for! Jessica is reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely loves what she does. We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!”
