“Grace was awesome with our pup while we were away for the past week. She was dependable and communicated updates, sent pictures etc. Our dog is 13 and was very spoiled by her daily walks , playtime and did well taking his meds with her. We would definitely recommend Grace for your dog sitting needs and we hope to use her again in the future !”

26. Skylar B.

“Skylar was great with my cat Rudy. He was well taken care of and just hearing him purr in the videos she sent me reassured me he was fine. I highly recommend Skylar to help with your cat or dog. She’s a real pet person!”


27. Lindsey G.
“If you are looking for a loving, compassionate caregiver for your pet, look no further. Lindsey has assisted with our 6 year old Pittie Nala several times from pet-sitting, dog walking, feeding & watering, and so much more. Animals truly have a sense for a good human, and she is an angel. Our dog loves her and we are so lucky to have her take care of our most precious pup when needed. Thank you Lindsey! We love having you help us with Nala!”


28. Julie D.


“Julie took our Sadie out for a potty break and spent time playing with her when we were gone for the day. She sent some pictures, it eased our minds to see that Sadie was being taken care of. We really appreciated it. I would recommend Julie.”

33. Mariana G.
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.


34. Jelinnet V.
“Jelinnet has watched over my bullies and cats while I left the country to see my parents. I got updates everyday and pictures of the activities she does. Shes the best.”


35. Bethany F.
“Bethany is always very respectful of the pet and owner when it comes to meeting new pets. They can comfortably handle various sizes of dogs without putting any additional stress on the dog. They are also able to adapt to the personalities of the pets. They always make my cat with severe anxiety calm whenever they are around. I would be very comfortable leaving my German Shepard with Bethany as I know they will treat him with as much love and care as they would their own pets. :)”


36. Jadden Y.
“Jadden has both a loving and caring personality. She has dogs at home who she deeply loves. She is very responsible when it comes to doing well in school, going to work, and providing care for her friends and animals.”


37. Tori L.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and recently raised a puppy with another dog. I love to go on hikes with my dogs but also lay on the couch with them. We have trained both of our dogs and they enjoy our large fenced in backyard. My husband and I work slightly different shifts so the longest a dog would need to go without being let out is 6 hours. I do work close to home and can come home on my lunch break. We have a 6 foot privacy fenced in yard with a double reinforced gate. Our dogs are very sweet and get along great with other dogs that have been to our house. We are happy to do walks, give individual play time, or snuggles.




38. Trisha R.
“Trisha is absolutely amazing with animals. She's volunteered at pet stores, apls, rescued dogs from kill shelters and much more. She's very passionate about dogs especially. I've honestly never experienced someone who loves animals as much as she does. It's truly inspirational. ”


39. Britanny T.
“I left my 6 month old Corgi/Border Collie mix with Britanny and she was above and beyond absolutely amazing. She was super quick to respond and easy to communicate with, which was a huge plus since I was visiting from out of town. I was able to drop my puppy off early (7:30 am) on a Sunday and Britanny even went out of her way to drop my pup off at my airbnb when my plans changed at the last minute. Britanny was in constant contact throughout the day and even took Pepper sightseeing when she heard we were from out of town so she could "experience Cleveland". You read that right, I have cute tourist photos of my dog... my heart about exploded. I cannot say enough good things about Britanny, if I lived in town she would be my go to dog sitter every time.”

About: I love animals & i will make sure i take good care of them & play with them a lot. I’ve had my dog king that passed away 2 months ago for 6+ years so i know how to take care of a dog & i will make sure they feel loved. I will take them on as many walks as they want.
