“I appreciate Rachel understanding what the dogs needed during our time away. She took the time to meet with the dogs and us prior to walking them. It was a very positive experience for all.”

“Charles is great with my puppy and my two cats! He responded to my request instantly and came the same day for a meet n greet. He's been extremely great with communication, and when I get home everything has been locked up securely. He has been an absolute life saver and came through when I was in a pinch and needed someone to let my puppy out midday because I work 30 min from home! Thank you Charles!”

About: I have experience in pet sitting puppies, senior dogs, kittens and senior cats. I will either visit twice a day or stay all night for an additional fee. I am also willing to do household chores for you at no additional cost. Currently unemployed and always available. When I am re-employed I make arrangements with pet parents regarding their personal pet care needs. My children are grown and I have a roommate and my babies will not be unattended while I am away taking care of yours! I do exactly what pet parents ask during interview/in home visits. I understand how stressful it is for pets when their environments change. I am compassionate, affectionate, and responsible.
About: I have patience and enjoy animals. I’ve taken care of cats and dogs from newborn until old age, and find joy and happiness being around animals. I’ve attended trainings on how to handle dogs and put my German Shephard through agility training most,y because he loved it but it did help with following commands too. My pet care style is nurturing and loving. I also am able to manage high energy dogs. I am retired and have lots of time to love on all animals. I have a large fenced yard and live across the street from an open park and am less than 1/2 mile from Lake Erie. I also have a cat so need to be sure a dog is cat friendly.
About: I’ve always had dogs in my household, + other small animals such as bunny’s & hamsters. I currently have 3 dogs named Ace, Jack, & Baker. 2 husky’s & a red heeler. Love them all! A lot of my family members have pets but like to go out & go places sometimes, just like everyone! I’m always there willing to come & hangout, feed, walk, & play with their dogs & other animals while they’re away. From young to senior, all animals will be protected under my care! I currently work at the car dealership Ken Ganley CDJR in Mentor as a front desk receptionist. I work there part time & just turned 18 so was looking to do something else as well! Sunday, Tuesday, & Wednesday are my off days & I do not go in till 4 & 3 on Mondays & Thursday’s. I care for my own 3 dogs at home & would love to help out with someone else’s loved pet! If they have a certain schedule they follow i’ll be more than happy to follow it! All my attention will go to them when needed & i’m a very energetic young girl always ready to run around & play with younger dogs or ready to cuddle up & watch a movie with some senior dogs!
About: I LOVE animals. I have had a dog (s) and a cat for all of my life. I currently have 2 dogs, 1 cat and a gecko. I started a pet sitting business at 12. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets. I will love them like family. I am currently a college student majoring in Pre-Med. I would love to use my love for animals as a way to supplement my income. I will ensure your pets safety by following any guidelines you provide. I will show up when needed and love them like family so they never feel lonely.
About: I've been caring for a variety of pets my entire life and have a passion for helping animals of all shapes and sizes. I'm excited to provide the best care for your furry, scaly, or feathered friends while you're away. Your pets will be loved and looked after as if they were my own. I have extensive experience with dogs, cats, and even lifers I am available early mornings every day if the week and in the afternoons and Mondays, Tuesday and Wednesday all day. I can even check in on your precious cargo after work hours I have a fenced in backyard for your dog to run around in. I do have cats in my home who were introduced and lived with our pooch until her passing recently
“Maggie was so great with our shihtzu! She was in constant contact about her visits/walks, and we could tell he was well-cared for while we were gone. It was so nice to be able to travel and know that Duke was in good hands!”

About: Let me offer you the peace of mind you deserve. Need to leave town for the weekend? Do you have a commitment that is going to keep you away from home all day? When you have pets, figuring out where to board them or who to care for them can be stressful enough all in itself. I am a 39 year old four-legged loving female. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own and run a rescue organization. I understand that peoples pets are like their children, and they only want the best care, and peace of mind, while away from them. I offer plenty of play time, walks, and cuddles; I am also available to take them to grooming or vet appointments. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. I currently have a very flexible schedule to accommodate your pets needs. Did you know that dogs should not be fed grapes, avocados, or rawhides (among other things)? Well, I do. I keep up-to-date on what could be toxic to a dog, as well as the latest treat and food recalls. Let me pamper your pooch - I can also provide bathing, ear cleaning, nail trimming/filing, teeth brushing. I don't discriminate based on breed or age (love those seniors!) and I will offer your dog the highest level of comfort while you are away. Why I love dog sitting I have been an animal person all my life. I became involved in rescue work around 14 years ago and it brought a new passion and purpose into my life. I love all animals, but dogs will always have the most special place in my heart. The loyalty, determination, love and strength that they possess and provide to those around them cannot be matched. I currently have a very flexible schedule (however Thursdays I am only available until 2 PM), so I am able to accommodate your pets needs, whether it be maintaining a feeding or medication schedule, getting them to appointments, going for walks, or offering them a break throughout the day. I have two dogs of my own (a sassy 3 y/o goldendoodle and a mellow 4 y/o beagle/pit mix). I take caring for your pet as seriously as I would expect someone to care for my own babies. We have a fenced in yard and typically allow open-access to the yard throughout the day (weather permitting). I strive to stick to your pets daily routines as best as possible in order to reduce stress while their parents are away.

“Sandy was awesome! She walked my pup, played with her, and fed her. She also sent pictures and stayed in contact. I really appreciate her helping me while I was out of town. Derby seemed so happy after being with her. Can’t say thank you enough!”

About: I have 10+ years of pet sitting/care experience. Because of a flexible work schedule and my love for animals, I have been the go to for family members and friends. Dog walking, in house sitting included. I have a flexible work schedule and enjoy the time I get to spend with pets. I wish I could have my own fur kids but unfortunately my complex does not allow dogs. Safety of the pet is number 1 when pet parents are working or out of town. I’m always very aware of my surroundings when walking and caring for pets.
“Emily was great! I loved that she stopped over ahead of time to meet Oliver. I knew immediately he’d be in good hands. Each day she let him out, played with him and took him on walks (long ones!). We will be requesting her in the future for sure.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I love dogs and can’t wait to help you with the care of yours. I can help with basics of feeding walking and care. I am looking for dog walks to help myself get exercise while helping you get your dog exercise! I can help out early morning or evenings. I have an enclosed small yard and access to trails and dog parks. When your dog is with me they are part of my family!!
About: Ive always had pets growing up. I currently live with my mom and her two dogs. I've also cared for bearded dragons before and I also have a 65lb sulcata tortoise. I've dealt with dogs of all sizes, from weiner dogs, to hound mixes. I love all pets, but I'd say my favorite type of dogs are pugs because I find them extremely cute. I currently do gig work for my income. I mostly do instacart from about noon until 10pm most days. I feel like Doing gig work would make me more flexible to take care of pets vs somone with a 9-5 job. I can't offer boarding because my one dog is weird about other animals sometimes. However, id be more than happy to dog sit for days that you are out of town, or simply go over and let the dogs out to go potty if you didn't need someone to stay over. I can come over to your house to give your dog food/water, as well as let them out for potty breaks on a visit. I can also stay overnight if you need that as well.
