House Sitting in Lincoln Knolls, Youngstown, OH

About: Hi! My name is Ali. I have been a dog parent/lover my whole life! And through that love of dogs I saw a passion! I love caring for others animals- I work part time at a dog boarding facility and day care! So I’ve learned many things about enrichment, how to give medicines including insulin! I have 2 dogs myself that are senior boys so I have experience with the older pups as well as puppies. I’m currently part time at the bed and biscuit inn as I mentioned. So I will have plenty of time to drop in on your fur kids and give them the attention and love they may need! I am very much into giving my dogs the choice to cuddle or give love -I don’t force them. I like to give the dogs the attention they deserve while respecting their boundaries (we all have boundaries and things we like and don’t like) I have learned how to read body language of a dog as well as signs of dehydration etc. As you can see from my services I also offer in-home boarding. So, I will have a dog (or a couple) in my secure apartment. It’s quite roomy- and you’ll receive SO many photos and a personalized text from your pet detailing how their stay is going!

“Jeannine gets a gold star plus plus plus rating for her 10 day stay with Penny in our home. She loved and cared for Penny and our home with ? % dedication, thoughtfulness and a wholehearted desire to please that went beyond expectations. Jeannine is impeccable with her word, completely reliable, followed my instructions/guidelines to the letter, was flexible, gave lots of daily updates & pictures and communicated with clarity and directness. She cleaned our house before she left… including washing and changing the sheets! Her caring giving all around is tops! She is a terrific human that would serve you well. I tipped her like I’ve never tipped before! Penny and I adore her ?”

“Cydni is very kind and loving with all types of animals and she has years of experience with dogs, cats, horses, birds and exotic animals such as ferrets, chinchillas, guinea pigs and lizards. She always very kind and gentle with all types of animals.”

“Heidi is a very caring compassionate and empathetic woman! I worked with Heidi for years! Our line of work was not for the faint of heart. She always displayed nothing but kindness and was the best listener. Heidi would do anything for anyone and would not hesitate to give you the best care possible for your furry family member. Book with Heidi not because I say so, but because she is one of the most trustworthy people you could have your furry family member around!!”

“I believe Ava to be an excellent candidate for being a pet caregiver due to her extremely mature and responsible nature. She is highly trust worthy and will make sure your pet receives the best care. Your pet is in the safest hands with her!”

“Elizabeth does a great job when we leave our English bulldog and Alaskan malamute in her care. They get excited by hearing her name and knowing that she’s coming. 10 out of 10 service and care to the animals.”

“Brianna was a wonderful pet sitter for our little Rocco. She was on time each and every day and sent us a pic of our pup each feeding/potty break. I recommend Brianna to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”

“Jordan saved us for watching our boys overnight last minute when our other sitter cancelled. She was sweet, great with the boys and kept in touch with us during the stay. Definitely scheduling again with her!”

“Haley was so great with Teddy! Sends pictures and keeps you up to date ?”

“This was Katelyn’s first house sitting opportunity and our first Rover experience. So we were both a little anxious. I’m happy to say the experience was very positive. Our dogs(2) liked Katelyn and seemed to be comfortable with her from the meet and greet . She feed them walked them and played with them and our little one slept with her. She would send us texts and pictures in the course of the day. When we returned they were like we never left which is always a good sign. We will definitely use Katelyn again the next time we need a dog sitter.”

“Sienna is so sweet and caring, always goes the extra mile! She loves animals of all shapes and sizes and will make sure your fur babies are well taken care of so you can have peace of mind while you're out 😌”

“McKenzie is a dog mom of 1 to a golden named Rover. Safe to say that McKenzie is the best dog mom and loves all dogs unconditionally. She is the person you want taking care/walking your dog when you have a long day at work.”

“Cindy was great with my Calvin! He was happy and well taken care of the couple days I was gone and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future when I leave town.”

“Linzy is excellent. My dog is a little funny about new people and she took to Linzy very quickly. Linzy pulled out my girls puzzles and toys and sent me photos (so thankful for that). Did a great job clean9ng up after herself and my girl was relaxed and happy when I got home. I highly recommend Linzy and look forward to using her again in August.”

“Morgann is amazing! I moved here from another state and was worried about finding a new dog sitter for my fur babies after having the same sitter for 8 years. My dogs love her and she took fabulous care of them. She was great with communication while we were out of town, sending me pictures and updates about the dogs too. Would definitely recommend her and plan on working with her again.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have always adopted my pets and think it's very important for them to have forever homes. I help with a non-profit group called No Fear Rescue which helps dogs go from foster homes to permanent houses! I am going back to school in the Fall, and I think this would be an excellent way to do something I love and earn money for school. I have flexible hours to help out. I understand people have busy lives and dogs need exercise or sometimes just a bathroom break. I haven't met a dog that I don't like. They are such loving animals that are also part of families. I love outdoors and exploring parks with my furry friends. I'm currently in my final year of college and this part time job fits perfectly. Gives me the best break from the books and flexible hours. I am very hands on with pet sitting and your pets care is my number one priority. I always learn the routine that is already set with the pets to make sure every visit is fun and safe!

“Ash has watched my cat for years! She is very trustworthy,dependable,and wonderful with my cat. I highly recommend her for your pet and in your house. Awesome lady!”

“Although Avi recently took care of our dog and cat while we were gone for a week, he’s been our pet sitter for a while (which included a feisty gecko!) When we came home, both animals were so happy to see us but also sad to see Avi go. In the amount of time my husband and I witnessed him interacting with our beloved pets, he was very sweet and warm toward them. Even when our dog was initially barking protectively, Avi took his time, went slow, and gave positive reinforcement the whole time to gain trust. We love that we know we can count on Avi to keep their routines and keep them happy and cared for when we go away for any length of time!”

“Best ever.”

“Sam is one of the warmest people I know, especially when it comes to pets. Not only is she reliable, she goes above and beyond with everything she does in life. She's responsible, outgoing, independent, successful, and always feels like home. I know any pet that is lucky to be watched or walked by Sam is going to get extra belly rubs, love, and great exercise in. She puts 110% into everything that she does and I don't doubt she will be a diamond in Rover's crown. I would recommend Sam for a job like this above all else from seeing how much love she gives to her own pups, as well as all the others around her.”
