Kristi was an amazing sitter and is clearly an animal lover. Not only did she care for my pets thoughtfully, she left the place super tidy and clearly spent quality time with them for affection and play. 10/10 would book again.

About: I’ve been connecting with all types of pets since I was a child. As a detail oriented pet carer, I always prioritize safety. But my favorite part of the job is the fun, hugs and satisfaction I get from treating your fur babies like they’re my own. I have a flexible schedule which allows me to provide detailed safe care for your pets. It also allows me to spend time for walking, playing, and of course hugs. For stop in visits, I focus on following directions, so I can safely care for and spend time with your pets meeting all of their needs.

She was great with my very senior golden retriever. Would definitely recommend her. She kept me updated on how my dog was doing and gave lots of love and attention.

Erin was great. Timely, great photo updates, and no news to report. Will definitely be reaching out to her again! That was the first time using Rover, and first time leaving my dog for a full weekend without a family member, and all went well!

About: Dogs have honestly always been a huge part of my life, so caring for them feels really natural to me. Between growing up around dogs and now raising my own puppy, I’m used to the chaos, energy, routines, and all the little personalities that come with them. I’m comfortable with everything from walks and potty breaks to baths, playtime, crate routines, and helping reinforce good habits. I love getting to know each dog individually — whether they’re super energetic, clingy, goofy, or more laid-back. My goal is always to make them feel comfortable, loved, and like they’re just hanging out with someone they already know and trust ♡ My schedule is pretty flexible right now! I’m currently interning Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 10am–6pm, but I’m available mornings, evenings, and overnight care on those days if needed. Wednesdays and weekends are the most open in my schedule, so I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention throughout the day ♡ Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my biggest priority. During walks, I’m very attentive to surroundings, leash safety, and making sure pets stay comfortable and secure at all times. For in-home drop-ins, I do my best to keep pets relaxed by following their normal routine and giving them lots of care, attention, and patience in their own environment. I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s boundaries, and I always make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away ♡

About: I first discovered what it meant to truly love a dog while growing up with my beloved labradoodle, Charley, who was part of my life for 15 years. After he passed, I wanted to continue sharing that love with other dogs, which led me to volunteer as a dog handler and walker at City Dogs. At the shelter, I regularly take dogs on walks, runs, hikes, and special outings, and I’ve also had the opportunity to foster. This experience has taught me how to safely and compassionately care for dogs with a wide range of personalities and needs—especially bully breeds, who are often misunderstood and come from backgrounds of abuse or neglect. Working with these dogs has helped me develop patience, strong handling skills, and an understanding of how to build trust with animals who may be fearful or unsure. I prioritize being a calm, safe, and reliable person for every dog I care for, and I love helping them experience what it feels like to be treated with kindness, love, and respect. I’m currently a graduate student pursuing my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I work an internship part-time 3 days a week, so I would love to spend my days off with your pups! I provide attentive, reliable care whether I’m walking your dog or caring for them in your home. My experience with City Dogs has taught me how to handle dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m comfortable walking strong pullers, shy dogs, and high-energy pups who need extra exercise. During walks, I prioritize keeping dogs safe and happy. I always make sure collars and harnesses are secure, avoid unsafe situations, and adjust the pace and length of the walk to fit each dog’s comfort level. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and having a great time. Volunteering ant City Dogs has taught me how important patience and gentle handling are, especially for dogs who may be nervous or adjusting to new people. My goal is always to make every pet feel comfortable, cared for, and excited for their next walk.

Veronica was a so communicative and easy to work! We were a challenging case - five cats, all with different needs and temperaments, some that had to stay separated, one that needed medicine, and a couple who don't drink water if it isn't fresh. On top of that, we had contractors coming in and out, which required moving cats around. Veronica handled it all like a champ, and was very adaptable, communicative and good-natured. We will definitely book her again!

About: Hi I'm Kasey. I've taken care of dogs, cats, and other types of pets since my teens and willing to work with your schedule to help you take care of your furred family members. I've volunteered for over 10 years with Friendship APL in Elyria walking dogs. I have an 8 year old Lab/ Pitbull mix named Coco. She's a character and always makes me smile with her personality and playful nature. I'm on the west side of Cleveland near Lakewood. I have my own car and would like to do what I can to treat your pets as well as I treat my own. I'm 6'1" and around 230 pounds, so I can handle bigger dogs in addition to smaller ones. I'm more than happy to walk your dogs and provide my own leash/ treats if needed. Thanks for reading my profile and I hope I can take care of your pets soon. I have very flexible hours working from home in IT so I'm able to manage work and care of my pets as well as yours. I'm typically available between 8 AM to 10 PM most days. I have a fenced in yard for my dog, but make sure she gets daily walks and plenty of play. My cats have plenty of toys and spaces to call their own when they aren't feeling as social. I'm willing to feed, give medications, walk your dogs and provide enrichment to your pets while they're in my care. I'm available for house sitting, walking, and drop-in visits. I have experience with all ages of pets from puppies/ kittens to senior animals. Wether they're perfectly behaved or a little more of a challenge, I'm ready to help.

Kristi has become my permanent go-to sitter. She is dependable and has good intuition. She was concerned when my senior cat didn't seem quite himself and alerted me right away. She offered to do a bonus visit the following morning just to check on him, and I was glad she was able to do so. In the end, he was fine - just a quirky senior cat -- and I could enjoy the rest of my trip without worrying.
