“Kathleen and Nathan took excellent care of our dog. We were passing through the area on our way home from the east coast and needed a place for Dilly to get some exercise and play before we continued our trip. Dilly enjoyed playing in their large, fenced yard and had fun playing with their kids. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Dilly was happy and relaxed and ready to go the next day.”

“Jess took exceptional care of our older Bernese Mtn dog, Gracie. Just as her background on Rover indicates, Jess is well-versed in special care with administering meds and handling our dog who has some issues with weakness. Her care goes beyond those two qualities! Our dog loved her stay there as to how great she looked when we picked her up! Jess gave us a daily photo update and stayed connected with us about an issue Gracie had, which was quickly resolved. Wonderful peace of mind. We can't say enough great things about Jess. She is the best!”


“Mark and Vicky are wonderful, we really appreciated the daily updates with lots photos. They are extremely professional and caring, simply the best. Vinny had a great vacation time there”

“Anita was so great! My dog is super shy but she really enjoyed her stay with Anita and fern. I got updates two times a day while on vacation and was totally confident that Luna was ok.”

About: I foster for our local pet rescue and do well socializing pups and adult dogs who are child friendly. Avid walker with clean, comfortable home. I work from home daily so unless I’m at a client visit, you can expect 24/7 care. Can help over nights and weekends for traveling. I have a lead in the back yard for potty breaks, access to local metro park for long walks, stair gates and a pen for crating.
“Jenna cared for my senior, blind dog over a holiday week. She was extremely easy to make plans and communicate with. She gave my boy the BEST care and I got to see lots of pictures and videos during his stay. She even took a legitimate photo shoot of him! I will happily book with her again for Pooka and she has a client for life”

“Sydeney was a pleasure to meet. She took great care of Murphy while we were on vacation. We received photo updates and could tell that Murphy was happy and in good hands. We will definitely keep Sydney in mind next time we need someone to watch Murphy for us.”

“We had our 2 puppies stay with Zachary and it was absolutely wonderful! They were playing and looked so happy the moment they got into his backyard. Will absolutely book with him again and highly recommend his services!”

“Kim is so wonderful! My dog is young and gets food aggressive with other animals, but she handled it great and was very accommodating to her needs. Her two dogs are so sweet and her home is a great environment for my dog. My dog seemed very comfortable and loved. I received plenty of pictures (which I adore). I would highly recommend Kim to care for your pup!”

“Danielle and her kids were terrific. We were nervous as this was the first time Brownie stayed over night with someone but we felt comfortable after meet and greet. She communicated daily when our fur baby stayed with her for the weekend and put our minds at ease. Brownie loved running in back yard and making new friends. We will definitely call her back”

“Megan was a God-send for me. I needed a sitter to watch Gracie while my husband and I were on our honeymoon. 3 weeks before the wedding I had some car issues that resulted in added stress to me. Megan worked with me on getting things booked, and knowing that having Gracie taken care of w was so relieving during that time. Her kids were amazing with Gracie and we loved getting daily updates on our sweet girl. We will definitely use Megan and her boys for Gracie in the future. Thank you sooo much for loving our girl.”

“Great couple, loving to your per, they take great care of your pet, they provide pictures throughout your pet’s stay to keep you updated on their stay. I will always use them when needed and highly recommend them for sitting your pets.”

“Leaving behind our 5-month-old puppy for an 11-day vacation filled me with nervousness. After speaking to several people, I found Sarah, who I knew was the perfect choice. Sarah's attention to detail was impeccable - she gathered all the necessary information and maintained my puppy's routine flawlessly. Keeping us updated with photos and videos, Sarah's care provided me with peace of mind throughout my vacation. When our puppy returned home, he was just as happy and carefree as if he had never been away.”

“Susan and Doug were excellent taking care of Russell for 2 weeks when we were out of the country. Russelll adjusted well and was happy getting a lots of walks, love and attention. We received daily updates. We are new in the area and was very lucky to have found Susan in Rover. Thank you so much!”

“Marie and her husband Jorge were absolutely wonderful! Latte can be quite bit shy around new people and places, but Marie and Jorge made her feel at home. They provided excellent communication and sent a ton of photos. Latte looked like she had a blast playing and made several new friends! They even went above and beyond to make sure Latte ate her meals. We truly had a wonderful experience with them and wouldn't hesitate to book with them again in the future. ❤️”

“Nathan & Jenna are amazing hosts. Kora was not over excited during her stay but is missing her host & friends when back home. Nathan was sharing frequent videos for Kora daily and also, picked/dropped her off.”

“Gabrielle (and Greta!) went above and beyond in helping me and my dog this week! I am extremely grateful for everything and so impressed by her passion for taking excellent care of animals! 🤍”

About: I won’t lie and say I’ve professionally taken care of dogs for 15 years—but I’ve taken care of dogs ever since elementary school, in my own household and in others’. I know what to look out for to prevent a dog from getting into trouble. I’ve dealt with just about all kinds of messes. And I can handle any size of dog. My main job is part-time contract work, so there are a lot of monetary and time gaps that need filled. That said, my routine allows a lot of room for pet sitting! Every dog is different, so I take that approach with each pet I look after. I follow owner’s instructions, and if I have any questions I am not afraid to ask for clarification—the dog’s/owner’s needs come first. I love giving dogs the attention they deserve (which is usually a lot), and am great at playing.
About: All K9 Solutions is fully insured and licensed here in Akron OH. I've been training dogs for 6 years and professionally for 4 years. After I worked for reputable training companies, one here in Akron area as the head trainer, I decided to open my own company called All K9 Solutions. I grew up with dogs, and have experience with cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, chickens, and ducks as I used to manage a farm as well. I personally network all over the US with other dog trainers. One of my recent travels has been to Kansas to help host a working dog workshop with a few small departments. I have two Belgian malinois who I strive for their needs to be met daily. From mental stimulation to physical stimulation while giving them a “job”. My youngest is 3 years old and does many sports (PSA, AKC sports, and has been dabbling in odor work), and my oldest is 10, he’s a retired military explosives K9 who served on the boarder of Jordan up until 7 years old. Both the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. All of my dogs have off leash obedience training that is kept up with. I have a background in dog training, boarding, and daycare; from puppies all the way to seniors. I strive for knowledge with dogs as there’s always new information to learn and dogs aren’t cookie cutter. I’m also an STSK9 MVP student for advanced obedience. I’m very passionate about teaching others about dogs from genetics and breeds to how their psychology works. My business hours run from 7am-10pm. My availability is open from the afternoon to night time, this way all morning routines are completed, walks, potty breaks, feeding, training sessions etc. All dogs are boarded in a home environment instead of a facility. This way your dogs aren’t as stressed being away from you, and they can comfortably enjoy their vacation too. All dogs are kenneled to ensure safety (not investing anything they shouldn’t, no free roam 24/7 with other client’s dogs you don’t know, and they have their own space to decompress). Since the yard isn't fenced in, all dogs must be leashed with a properly fitted collar with a longline when going outside, a harness, or a slip lead. However, a good peaceful walk with all the smells is always more mental and physical stimulation for the dogs than a fenced in area with limited access. Reactive dogs and fearful dogs are welcome as I have years of experience with them, and training them to grow confidence and obedience. I also have experience with special need's animals. Loud dogs are welcome too. If your dog(s) show healthy body language and do well with other dogs, my two malinois are gentle beings and always love a play mate. Minka especially, she follows the other dog's pace and reads their body language. I do ask that you leave your vet information with me and emergency vet information as well for an emergency contact if ever need be. Better safe than sorry. I also do ask for a second choice of contact incase the primary owner is unable to be reached. All dogs must be up to date on vaccines and bordetella for boarding and daycare. Safety precautions are always taken. For the well being of the dogs and myself. Please note that I do require all important behaviors are made aware of by the owners before hand and I will notify owners upon any concern of sickness or bite risks. I send updates each day as well or will add photos to your rover card.
Fairlawn Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kathleen and Nathan are AMAZING!!! I feel so lucky we found them! They took the best care of our furbaby and treated him like their own! Our dog was so happy in every picture I got and looked like he was on vacation. Kathleen is a great communicator and so so so friendly

Jenna is great! This is our second time booking with her and our first overnight booking. She is responsive and sends plenty of update pictures. Our pup is a former puppy mill mom and can still be nervous about odd things but Jenna is considerate of her quirks and is willing to try a few different things to make her feel comfortable. Thank you!

Ryan and Rio were the perfect hosts for Ziggy. Ryan is very knowledgeable about dogs and expertly handled my large puppy and his antics. Communication is excellent and Ryan is very accommodating. Ziggy was well cared for and tired when we picked him up. I will use Ryan again.

Emily was very kind and understanding that my dog has never been to a dog sitter or anything like that. Stormi is very anxious and protective, SO she is very picky with whom she bonds with!! Emily took All that in consideration And Stormi loved her & Emily’s husband 💙 I will definitely be referring Emily to anyone that needs a sitter! She even sends progress reports, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Our pups had a wonderful weekend and were very well cared for! Taylor has the perfect pup friendly neighborhood & fenced back yard. She was extremely kind and communicative. We felt extremely comfortable that our puppy and senior lady were in good hands and enjoying their stay! Thank you!!

Mark and Elizabeth were great with Maeve. Maeve had a great time. Mark and Elizabeth updated us throughout our trip with multiple photographs, they are professional, friendly and very responsive. Great with puppies with high energy. Will be utilizing there services again for sure. Highly recommend Mark and Elizabeth

The “three J’s” were great at accommodating my last minute request by quickly arranging a meet and greet. They showed interest in learning about Ziggy‘a needs and making sure he felt secure in a new setting. Superb knowledge and expertise in doggie behavior. I highly recommend and look forward to using their boarding services again!

Hailey was absolutely wonderful , took such good care of my dog Klaus, sent me pictures and updates the entire time I was away, Honestly I would of never felt comfortable Leaving Klaus if it wasn’t for Hailey ,she literally is amazing with him , She made my dog feel like Family and he had a blast playing with his new Pal pilot , I’ll be using Hailey again, I highly recommend !
