“I had Avery petsit for my cat Nala and it was totally flawless from start to finish. I would recommend anyone thinking of using this service to really consider using Avery as they showed professionalism and kindness throughout. 10/10! =)”

“Angela was great! She was very patient & gentle with my anxious dog during the meet & greet, so I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her! They seemed to get along great during the stay. Angela was good about sending pics & communicating. Would hire again!!”

“Emily is a wonderful housesitter! She communicated with me the week that I was on vacation about my cat and sent pictures daily. My boy was well taken care of and the peace of mind knowing he didn't have to spend a lot of time alone made a big difference. Emily visited us several days before her stay to meet my little guy and made sure she was familiar with his needs. She left the home immaculate as well. I highly recommend Emily for any pet needs and will definitely contact her when I have travel plans again.”

“I would give 100 stars, if I could! It was my first time leaving my puppies, and Ishmell was soooo wonderful! He stayed at my house over night, took care of all 3 dogs, and was a great house guest! So happy I found him, and can't wait to use him again!”

“This is our second time working with Christina, and she is so good with our kitties. I am especially grateful that she was able to help when our flights were delayed coming home to make sure our girls were fed and safe. Thanks again!!”

About: Hi, My most recent experience has been long term care for friends and families dogs. I offer to walk dogs multiple times a day, as well as check in multiple times a day. I also offer personalized behavioral training a recommendations. I have particular experience with behavioral issues like separation anxiety and difficulties walking on a leash and getting overwhelmed with various stimuli. Previously, I fostered large dogs with behavioral issues for the SPCA for 5 years. I have experience with dogs that are reactive, anxiety ridden and once with medical issues. I fostered the dogs until the issues are either managed or resolved and they are ready for adoption. I have experience primarily with large dogs. I am used to long walks and hikes with dogs. I primarily keeps dogs on leash but in the right circumstances I will let them off leash. However, I am very picky. I am open to walking l, check-ins and boarding. I’m in class a few times a month and working 1-2 days a week so I have times of availability to care for your pup. Thank you for considering me, Celine I’m a graduate student with minimal in class time so I have plenty of time to play and cuddle your pup. I love long walks and play time. I enjoy finding engaging activities that keep them mentally stimulated. I would like to get a sense of your pup and aspects of their care that are most important to you. This could be frequency of walking, caring for behavioral issues or simply giving them lots of cuddles. I can be in your hole where your pup is most comfortable or bring them to mine.

“Alexis was amazing and the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were well taken care of, and they loved her! Can’t recommend Alexis enough!”

“Sydney was great! We had to book her short notice due to our usual sitter falling through, and she was very quick to communicate and was great with the dogs.”

Cidnee H.

“Kai’Lee did a great job with my pups. They had a great time with her and she maintained order despite one escape attempt (under the fence) and a nasty stomach bug. They both love her!”

Kay R.

“Devaney is wonderful! She stayed with our 17 year old Havanese for 10 days. He is very skittish and doesn't like anyone but us. She worked with him and got him to relate to her. He has accidents in the house and she cleaned up. When we returned the house was in wonderful shape. She sent pictures and updates every day. I highly recommend her! And she has a great personality and sense of humor!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and grew up helping care for my own pets, taking on a larger role in their daily routines about six years ago. Over the past two years, I’ve also provided reliable pet and house sitting for family and friends. Through these experiences, I’ve become comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and pet transportation. I have experience with both small and large dogs (growing up with a miniature sheltie and a black lab)! As the families I’ve provided pet care services for have grown, I also have gained experience providing care for senior dogs. I treat every pet like my own and aim to make them feel comfortable while you’re away! I am currently a graduate student and GA at John Carroll, so I am only away from 12-5 Tuesday- Friday, so I have a very flexible schedule to take care of your pets while you’re at work or away! I also am available almost always on weekends for walks and check ins. When caring for pets in a clients home, I focus on keeping their routines as consistent as possible. I am attentive to detailed instruction and preferences, and take safety very seriously. I am mindful of keeping doors and gates secure, monitoring pets during walks or outdoors, and making sure their (and your) space stays clean and safe. I respect your home just as much as your pet, and I make sure to communicate regularly with updates for your peace of mind.

“Our dog received excellent care from Madi for an overnight house sitting. Madi communicated regularly and provided several updates and pictures. Our home was kept clean. Most of all, our dog seemed to have a fun and comfortable experience. We would highly recommend Madi!”

About: Hi my name is Yocheved, but a lot of people call me Yo, or Ava. I am an only parent to a wonderful, active middle schooler. We have a happy home full of love and laughter, and 2 kitties. After 14 magical years together, we lost our dog to old age, a couple years back. I miss the feel of having a dog around, but I know in my heart of hearts we are all a little older, and a little busier, and our home cannot house a new permanent four-legged resident. But I do not accept the lack of dogs in our lives! I said yes to dog sitting lately, and I have made so many new friends since. Hanging out with your dogs or cats when you're unable to be there- it's become a thing I look forward to in my home. I love walking the neighborhood or doing drop-ins to feed cats. Let me help you! I'm currently WFH part time, and tend to end my days on the early side, for parenting purposes. Because of this I'm pretty flexible and available throughout the week. I tend to all pets, like I would for my own. I cared for my dog through cancer, twice- so I'm pretty familiar with medicine, senior care, and all the extra effort needed for older or sick animlas. I love to walk, burn off energy, and snuggle. Happy to do light grooming (brushing), and send photos and videos throughout our time together!

“Always awesome with our dogs! This is the third time Octavia has stayed with the boys. Awesome photo and video updates. We enjoyed our honeymoon stress free.”

Cale H.

“Shermont'e was very respectable and patient with our dogs, (our dogs can be shy meeting new people). He constantly gave us updates on how they were doing, and that our most shy dog warmed up to him by the end of his stay! 10/10 would recommend!!”

Tessa H.

“India was great! Very responsive and reliable. My dog loved her and she was great at sending pics and thorough updates!”

Madeline R.

“This is the first time we have used her and she was amazing! One of my cats is very shy and loved her from the beginning. We were out of town for quite a while and I never worried once. The pictures she sent daily proved they were happy. I highly recommend her.”

Sarah T.

“Elizabeth took great care of our 2 year old dog, Rory. She was completely reliable, sent lots of pictures, and we could tell he was well loved when we returned home. She left our house very clean and communicated well with lots of pictures while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again!”
