“Octavia saved us with a no-notice booking after one of our boys decided he would rather chase snowflakes instead of going "potty' before we had to leave for work lol. She was prompt with her response and was incredibly flexible. The boys also love her!”
“Angelina was so great with Athena. She was on time and so patient & kind with our girl who can sometimes take a minute to warm up to new people. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: We have each had dogs our entire lives. We currently have husky who is 1 1/2 years old and a 2 year old mini Australian Shepherd. They are both rescues. They are playful and enjoy being around other dogs. Free for plenty of walks and playtime during the day. I work from home with a very flexible schedule and will be able to keep a good eye on your dog. We have a pet friendly home inside and out. Our yard is fenced in. We have dog toys and balls all over. The dogs get plenty of exercise throughout the day.
“Anthony is fantastic, brings treats, toys and a ton of love for your animals. He even made smalll adjustments, of course letting us know first, to ensure if there was poor weather that day he timed it within a window so he could let our pups out without it pouring rain. Absolutely will use him in the future and I am certain our dogs loved their time with him.”
“Audrey is absolutely amazing! She takes such good care of my Miley girl and is so kind and patient with her! I have been traveling more frequently lately, and knowing Audrey is taking such good care of Miley has been such a relief. 💙”
About: Lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience. I’ve provided in-home sitting, cared for friends’ pets, and have owned dogs my entire life. You can count on me for reliable, loving care—just like they’re my own. Hi! I’m currently on paternity leave from my full-time job, where I typically travel Monday through Thursday. With a bit more time at home right now, I’m looking to make some extra income doing something I truly enjoy—caring for dogs. I’ve owned dogs all my life, have in-home pet sitting experience, and have helped friends care for their pets over the years. Your pup will be in safe, caring hands. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I always follow the owner’s instructions and routines to ensure consistency and peace of mind. I’ve worked with dogs that require extra attention, including those with medical needs or those who don’t do well around other animals. My goal is to build trust, provide dependable care, and keep your dog safe and happy while you’re away.
About: I have dogs of my own and I know how important their health is from puppy to senior. I have been through every dog stage. I have school and work part time but they close at 5. I won’t have a lot of work so whenever you need me I’m there. My main priority is making sure your dog comes first and how they respond to certain things. At your home I will make sure I follow the routine they already have.
“Beth was wonderful! She came twice a day to feed/water/scoop for our two kitties while we were away. We received lots of updates and photos. The cats loved her and we were very happy with her care.”
About: Since the age of 10, I have cared for many animals, whether it be my own dog or a neighbors. I have experience with dogs, cats, and rabbits and I am not opposed to caring for another animal! Since entering college, I have been dog-sitting for many families and I am comfortable with staying at houses. I am currently home for the summer and am very flexible throughout the week. I am a college athlete so I have training at varying times of the day. However, I will be able to stop by and check on your pet before and after, not leaving them alone for too long! When caring for pets at a client’s home, I prioritize safety by following any specific instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding and walking routines as well as medication if needed. I never leave a pet unattended outside unless it is in a fully fenced area.
About: I am an enthusiastic animal mom with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, mice, leopard geckos and freshwater aquariums. Currently, I have 2 large, high energy pups, so I have great experience handling multiple dogs, dogs who need to focus on a job while walking, as well as strong doggos with squirrel impulse. I am very detail oriented and adept with multiple step health care routines for small animals. Being the caregiver to leopard geckos and freshwater fish makes me aware of several factors including, but not limited to temperature, ph, and nitrates that need to be consistently monitored when looking after aquariums, amphibians and reptiles. My love for all animals and experience as a pet owner makes me a great choice for your dog walking and pet sitting needs. :)
About: I have raised three reactive dogs in my lifetime so far. I understand the patience and commitment to making sure your pets are happy and healthy in every aspect and accommodated for! I work full time, but my job is very flexible. I usually will have an assignment outdoors that rarely take more than two hours to finish so I’m able to stop by home or your home and make sure the animals are doing fine. I have availability Sunday to Sunday! in my own home I have a large fenced in yard, and I have with me my sweet dog Kiwi, she loves bigger dogs to play with. We will play soccer outside usually or do some gardening! Located close to the Euclid Creek reservation, we frequent walks around the trail.
“I really appreciate how communicative Erin was while I was away. This was my first time doing this and my experience was great. She was great with my kitty and made me feel at peace leaving him.”
