About: I’ve taken care of and had several dogs my whole life! I had 4 dogs growing up and have a lot of experience walking/ playing/ being around dogs! I have my own cat now named, Momo! Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for days/ weeks at a time. I’m a middle school teacher off for summer and have plenty of time on my hands! I’m currently working part time in the summers and able to play and walk dogs for most of the day. I am available from 8 am- 3:30pm. I have a cat of my own and have had multiple dogs growing up. I am able to feed, walk, play and provide assistance! I can put them back in a crate if needed.

“Our puppy Otter had another great week walking with Olesja. He is reactive to bikes lately and she worked with him on tuning them out and remaining cool as a cucumber, totally focused on her and their walk.”

Margaret T.

“August is amazing with my girl Reese on weekly walks. August is knowledgable, trustworthy and reliable. Reese is always looking forward to her walk with August! She knows they’re always caring, kind and gentle with her. I would highly recommend August to anyone needing pet care.”

About: I started fostering dogs in grad school, where I was an active member of the local APL and formed an advocacy group to create and sustain the local dog park (an abandoned baseball field that we turned into a puppy paradise). On my foster journey, I quickly became the cliche and officially adopted my dog of 14 years, Rufio, after only a few hours. I found Ruf--a Rottweiler/shepherd mix--wandering down by the river, and we were best buds by dinnertime. Over the years, I continued to foster dogs and Ruf and I loved sharing our home with a revolving cast of characters. Sadly, Rufio passed away this past year, but the love is still there, and my partner, Hannah, and I are thrilled to fill our days with doggos. After 13 years in the corporate world--during which I became one of the youngest executives at a local Fortune 500 company, leading three teams totaling over 40 employees--I've decided to pivot back to my passions. I've never been happier than when I spent my days fostering dogs, so pet care has my full attention! I have a fenced in yard and I live a hop and a skip from a number of parks, including Lakewood Park, Webb Park, and the Rocky River Reservation (and dog park)! I'm very active, and I love taking pups around town (or simply hanging out, for our elder statesmen).

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. From daily walks and feeding to playtime, cuddles, and keeping up with routines, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved in my care. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, giving me plenty of flexibility for consistent visits, walks, and quality time with each animal. My favorite part of each day is having the opportunity to see the adorable faces of each one of my pets. I have 2 fur babies at home to keep yours company. I can easily keep your pet crate trained while you’re gone as well as offer plenty of play time, potty breaks & walks!

“Bethany was great! She was timely, friendly and most importantly great with our dog. He came home tired and ready for a nap. Would definitely recommend!”

About: Adult cat owner for a year and a lifetime of pet care and sitting experience. I work remotely in communications and marketing, so I have open availability and am very flexible with my time and attention. I’ve been an in-house sitter and dog walker for many friends over the last several years and have lots of experience with senior pets and anxious dogs. I work from home, fully remote, so I’m very flexible! Most of my job involves on-screen virtual meetings, writing and phone interviews so I’m happy to break up my day with walks, cuddles, snuggles and play time! I have an indoor-only cat who loves playtime and cuddling, but I also have experience sitting for anxious dogs and senior pets. I’m patient, calm and caring, and happy to sit with them, walk them or play indoor and outdoor.

About: I have had 4 huskies since I was little and have had to watch them and take care of them when my parents would travel. I have watched them as puppies and as senior dogs who require medications and special diets. I also have a dog of my own who is reactive so I am well versed in walking and managing reactive pets! I am currently working 3-12 hour shifts at the Cleveland Clinic so my schedule is a little erratic but I try and keep my availability updated. I am unable to house your pets myself but I am more than willing to meet with your pets in their homes and let them out, feed them, take them on walks and maintain their normal schedule as much as I can.

“Tyler was very patient with my rescue pup Lily who can be very timid and shy around new friends. I was instantly at ease while away and knew she was in great hands. Thank you!!!!”

“Regina is excellent in every way. She is very professional and cares kindly for our young puppy (who can be a handful). Regina has gone out of her way to make sure Clif gets outside for walks and has playtime during the day while we are at work or away for extended periods of time. She has also given us great tips on how to get him more comfortable with crate training and leaving him for hours at a time. We plan to use Regina regularly!”

“Mariah’s services are the BEST! I have never once had ANY issue with Mariah nor has Bronx. When your furry loved ones are excited and smiling when she arrives you know they are in good hands. Bronx loves Mariah and I couldn’t feel luckier. She goes the extra mile to provide thorough services. It’s obvious she genuinely cares for animals and isn’t just in it for the buck. Highly recommend Mariah with complete trust, care and love for your pet while you’re away : ) Thank you Mariah for everything you do for Bronx and keep up the great work!”
