“Shadia has been very helpful with my dog Stella. Stella doesn’t go up the deck stairs and Shadia assists when I have to go out of town with getting her back in the house. She has been a stress saver for my family.”
“Paula was wonderful, trustworthy, and dependable when it came to needing someone to let our new puppy and other dog out while we were at work. We are so grateful for her!”
About: I have been around dogs since I was 8. I love animals of all kinds and am hoping to make animals my life's work. I have a Jack Russel of my own, and I do everything in my power to make sure her and all other animals are happy healthy and cared for. I also have experience taking care of hamsters and guinea pigs. My sister and I used to walk our neighbors dog as a child. I constantly update my knowledge on dog breeds, their behaviors, temperaments, etc. I hope to make my life's work about carinng for dogs and other animals and this would be a wonderful opportunity. Pet care is my life. I am currently looking for. A job, and while my fiance' is at work I take care of the family dog, guinea pig (I am currently looking for more), and Betta fish. I am responsible for taking the dog out making sure she has food and water and I play with her. On top of that, i care for my guinea pig, clean out his cage twice a week, feed them fresh veggies and make sure they are stocked up on hay and pellets. I also care for a Betta fish and change his water once a week as well as feed him.) I care for every animal as if they were my own. I don't see my pet and your pet, I see living creatures that deserve love and respect, Just as humans do. I will be offering the services of walking and drop ins. When I am in the clients home, I will respect each clients home and property and I will leave the house the same way I found it and I will make sure their pet is loved and cared for to the best of my ability.
“Our first time hiring Haleigh as our regular sitter was out of town. Hadleigh took good care of 6 of our cats, posted daily updates of her visits, brought in the mail & vacuumed!! Highly recommend.”
About: Hi fellow pet lovers! My love for animals has led me to work in the veterinary field, and I also offer pet sitting as a fun and fulfilling side hobby. I work remotely, so I get to spend quality time caring for your furry friends. With my experience, I’ve learned how to spot signs of distress and can respond quickly if medical attention is needed. I’m also very comfortable giving medications and caring for pets with special needs. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and you can count on them being in safe, loving hands. If you’d like references, I’m happy to provide them. Thanks for considering me! I am currently working remotely and can fit pet care during the day or even overnight sometimes. I am located in Wet Cleveland area, and can travel further away :) Our home has big land for pets to run around. For kitties i have separate sun room with many play spots, litter box and other necessities.
About: I grew up with dogs, volunteer at an animal shelter, and have had my own dogs for 20+ years. I have two of my own currently and love being with them. I have experience with puppies all the way up through senior dogs. They will be in great hands! I teach so the summer is an ideal time to do drop in visits. When the school year is in full swing, I’ll be a bit more limited. I believe communication and transparency are key. Clear, detailed instructions will be very helpful. Picture and text updates after each visit I would love to provide.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, have learned a lot extensively these past 4 1/2 years, a lot about their behavior, body language different personalities, etc. I’ve trained and worked with senior dogs and puppies as young as 14 weeks old! Pet care is a daily routine for me. Once I get up in the morning I let my dog out, feed both him and my cat, make sure they’ve both got plenty of water. I will either take my dog out on walks or exercise and train with him in the backyard. I do brush them (or try to) weekly as well. Depending on the type of yard the home has, I will either A. Let dog(s) out in fenced back yard Or B. Let dog(s) out on lead. If one is not friendly with another I can crate and rotate to prevent issues and ensure both dogs (or as many as there are) are all shown the right amount of attention and care! As far as cats go I like to take my time as I know not all of them are social, I tend to not push boundaries and let them do as they please while they have time to warm up to me. :)
About: Hello! I’ve always had a deep love for animals and have been a caretaker for as long as I can remember. I’m passionate about providing the best care possible, whether it’s for my own pets or someone else’s. I rescued my cat when she was in critical condition and had to tube feed her back to health. It was an incredible journey that deepened my bond with her and solidified my dedication to animal care. Beside from taking care of my own animals, I have also been dog walking over the past few years. I would love the opportunity to extend that same level of care and compassion to your furry family members! :) I have very flexible schedule! If you were looking for somebody reliable, you can count on me! I am a recent college graduate looking to further my education in the future, therefore, my schedule is completely open at the moment! I personally treat my pets as they are family and treat clients pets with the same love and compassion, I care for them as if they were my own❤️ from playtime to cuddles, going for walks, I go the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, loved and happy!
About: I have had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. I took care of our dog for at least 5 years up until he passed away. I have been learning to train dogs as well. I currently work full time, Monday through Friday, and I have extra time and love to give to dogs that need a place to stay. I have a partially fenced in yard that is on the process of being fixed/finished. I can easily separate dogs if needed. I will provide walks as long as weather permits.

About: I love love love dogs! I’ve had them my whole life. All shapes and sizes from a chihuahua to a chocolate lab. My current companion is a 10 year old Bichon Frisée. He grew up with my sons flat coat retriever and is very good with other dogs. I live in a community with a great walking path. I would love to take care of your four legged friend 🐾 I do work from home 2-3 days a week. I do my best to schedule my days in the office around your pups stay here. If I do need to go to the office on a day during the stay, there is plenty of time in the morning for breakfast and potty time and I can come home at lunch. Outside of work hours and on weekends, they will get all of my love, attention, and exercise! The pups that I sit quickly find out they rule the roost! They get very spoiled with cuddles, walks and treats if they are allowed to have them! If they are in a crate at night or during the day if I’m at work I have plenty of room for one. If they don’t need a crate that’s fine too, I don’t mind them just hanging out!

About: I have always had a good connection with dogs and cats. I love all animals and we have 2 rescues of our own. 1 dog and 1 three legged cat. I care for both of our pets on a daily basis.

“Brianne is incredibly responsible, experienced, and caring with animals. She is truly a dog lover. She embraces every aspect of dog ownership - playing, walking, and monitoring their general well-being. She will do whatever is necessary to create a good life for her pets. She is also experienced in dealing with high energy dogs, having had a German shorthair pointer herself, and having volunteered at a dog rescue. Anyone could rest at ease knowing their dog is in great hands with her!”

“Dina is amazing. She used to walk my dogs while I was at work for a year. She was always on time never late, someone I could always rely on. I still recommend her to other people to this day. Unfortunately, I had to move due to my job, still looking for someone like her. If you are looking for a trustworthy dog/cat sitter you found your girl.”

“I have had Amanda dog sit for me on several occasions. I never worry about my pet when she is with him. There have been occasions when my pet was on medication and I could rely on Amanda to administer the meds when needed. Her compassion towards my little guy is heartwarming. I highly recommend Amanda if you are in need of a pet sitter!”
