“Second stay with Lori, and again an amazing experience. So thoughtful to my furry kids needs, takes my worries away when I'm on the road and away from them.”
“Sarah was great and took really good care of Petey. She watched Petey for 4 days and made sure he had plenty of love and attention. Sarah watched Petey in our home and was very respectful of our things and to our neighbors. I highly recommend her services and would definitely hire her again.”
“Denise was more than exceptional when she watched our crew this time. One of the dogs declined in her health to where she couldn’t walk or stand on her own. Denise was up all night caring for her until we got home. The other dog got multiple walks - even when it was raining - and Denise brought her a new stuffy and treats! I highly recommend Denise to house sit your animals when you are away.”
“Anna was wonderful! She was very attentive to our dog's shy personality and quirks. She sent us daily updates and pictures throughout our trip. Our pup had such a great weekend with Anna!”
About: I've been around various breeds of dogs for as long as I can remember. During my time volunteering at Paws and Prayers Animal Rescue, I've handled as little as the Chihuahua to as large as the Great Dane! I am currently working part-time, so my schedule is typically pretty open most of the time. I am always open to meet your pups! Big and small! I have handled pups both big and small! Whatever challenge your dog throws at me, I can take it! I am able to crate dogs when necessary.
“Arrived home at 5am from our trip. Our pets were happy to see us. The house was in pristine condition. Nothing was out of place even though I know Jess and the dog had all his dog toys out because she was kind enough to send us pictures of their little adventures & our cat knocked a glass candle to the floor, watched the roomba try to eat it just to amuse himself. Jess handled it. Very pleased with Jess and the service she provides to our family when we are out of town. No worries.”
“Teresa did an amazing watching our two doggies while we were on vacation. She throughly asked questions about the pups and our home prior to the trip. She was communicative during the stay and sent lots of pictures! Our trip ended early and she was flexible with our change of plans. We had no concerns about our dogs and our home while we were gone. We are so grateful!!!”
“Sidney was very responsive, on time and great to work with. She juggled the many needs of our dog with joy. We recommend her to anyone looking for a caring Dogsitter.”
“Alyssa was great! She stayed in our house with our dogs for a few days. Our one dog that can be shy and difficult ended up loving Alyssa! She shared pics of the dogs and kept in touch the whole time, which was very reassuring. She did a great job with the dogs, and was always pleasant to talk to! We will definitely be looking to have her help with our dogs in the future.”
“I’ve booked Isabella several times and she always takes fantastic care of my dog!! This time, I reached out to her because 3 days before her scheduled stay, my dog had surprise surgery and needed several medications on a schedule, some additional preparation for her food, and a cone to keep her stitches intact. Isabella did an amazing job with her as always and kept me updated as she recovered! I can’t imagine trusting anyone else with my pup!”
About: I have rescued two senior, nine year old, brother dogs in 2019, and they are absolutely thriving. I have also taken in a sixteen year old cat from my grandfather, and I currently live with three disabled cats. I am currently working on selling some things online, which means my schedule is completely flexible and lets me go out and take care of what I need to do, including taking care of pets! I quadruple check that all doors are closed, that there is plenty of water and food available, checking for any messes or hazards like yarn, magnets, reachable food containers, and I ALWAYS use a leash when necessary.
“We can't say enough about Nicole's caring service and communication throughout the 4 days she watched our dog. She arrived on time, took care of everything as specified (including plants), sent pics and videos, and left the house cleaner than when we left. We haven't hired anyone to watch our 60-lb lab mix before, as we just moved to Cuyahoga Falls and we don't have family here to pitch in to help with the pooch. We were squeamish about having a new person watch him, but Nicole put our minds at ease. I will definitely hire her again!”
About: It won’t let me change my profile but i currently do not live with any pets but dogs are my favorite pet ever. i’ve watched many many dogs in my life and it is always the best. I’m more than capable of loving and caring for your pet! I have had 3 dogs in my life and currently have two but i’m away at school. I’m in college currently but i have two dogs back at home. I’m obsessed with them and love them so much. I’ve also managed to train them very well. I’ll do whatever you need to make you feel comfortable with me taking care of your pets. I’m very understanding and will do my best to make your pet feel safe and loved.
“It was such a relief to have Aidan caring for my dogs at my house while I was gone on my 8 day vacation. My pups are 14 and 11 years old and have special dietary and medical needs and he was able to keep them well fed, medicated and happy! This was the first time in their whole lives that I didn't have friends or family available to watch them, but I didn't have to worry as Aidan sent pictures and kept me up to date on how things were going. If I am in this situation again Aidan will be the first person I reach out to!”
“Carson took awesome care of our little older, blind pup. He took our pup on a walk the morning we were coming home just because! We’ll definitely be reaching out again.”
“Very good with Mac and communication”
About: I have been around animals, exotic and domestic, since I was taken home in the carrier. Animals are my passion and there’s no animal that doesn’t need loved! I am a first responder with no set schedule, so I would like to spend my free time with animals and helping people out if they are needed. I couldn’t think of a better way to help out! I am very flexible on my off days and would be willing to go above and beyond for your pet. I understand some pets require certain things that may be different or difficult, but I would be absolutely willing to work through that! Walking dogs, doing litter boxes, playing fetch, and giving attention are all my specialties!
About: Ive had dogs all 18 years of my life. Currently I hav 5 dogs all medium sized dogs which is a lot of cleaning and attention.

Animals living with me or pets I have always considered family and I would treat anyone else pet with love, care and respect just as I would want for my own "babies". I am a college student so pet care fits into my daily life perfect and helps me make cash for college while having enough time to focus on school work. I am available as I have no other focus like a job as of right now so my hours are pretty open. I would always call or text if there was ever a concern or question and wouldnt do something that wasnt talked about before. I am always loving to animals and would never want the owner to worry about the dog or fish's safety while my care. I am loving to all animals and would be interested in working with animals i've never worked with before.

If you're looking for someone reliable, caring, and communicative, Vanessa is the sitter you’ve been hoping to find.

Katherine M.
“Kate has been around my dogs since she was young and since she could drive, I’ve trusted her with them! She’s stayed weekends, taken them on walks, or even just popped by to let them out when we have long days out of the house. They get as excited to see her as they do me and my kids!”
aubrie m.
“Aubrie is a very responsible young woman. She takes everything she does very seriously and is very hardworking.

Teresa was amazing with our dogs! She spent the weekend with them and they truly enjoyed spending time with her. She sent sweet updates and pictures of them too. Which was such a bonus!! We would definitely love for her to watch our dogs again in the future!
Beckett did a great job taking care of our fur babies when we took our trip to Cedar Point. She shared pictures and updates regularly.
Aidan was absolutely wonderful with our fur babies! He cared for them with genuine affection and attention, making sure they felt safe, loved, and comfortable while we were away. Not only was he great with the dogs, but he also communicated clearly and consistently, giving us total peace of mind. He left the house spotless, showing real respect for our home. I highly recommend Aidan for dog walking, house sitting, and pet care—you can trust him to treat your pets like his own.
Amazing and always great to talk to, made sure I was able to be reassured on my vacay that my pet was well taken care of. Would love to book again amazing individual and loves your pets!
