“Charles was extremely attentive to our cats and was very thorough on all the things that were asked. He went above and beyond to make sure that they were taken care of.”
“Caleigh did a great time caring for our two kitties while we were away. She checked in with us when she had a question, and kept us informed and sent pictures from each visit. Highly recommend.”
About: I have lived and taken care of Pets and livestock since I was born. I have raised and loved puppies, cattle, horses, chickens, goats, donkeys, ect. My love for pets goes beyond their care, It goes to how comfortable they are and the connection I feel with them personally and getting to know them as an individual. I have home pet care experience, I take care of three dogs and one cat daily as well as work on a family farm. My pets are like family to me, and I love them all individually. My pets at home have a schedule they know their own rigorous routine. I teach my dogs rules and expectations at home to keep them safe and build trust in our relationship.
“Taylor is an excellent pet sitter! We are so very pleased with her loving and caring attention to our pups. Plus her communication with us while we were away was outstanding and provided much peace of mind.”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. Currently the owner of two lovely cats. If my duplex allowed dogs I’d have one in a heart beat! I’ve had and cared for dogs growing up. We had a golden retriever, golden doodle and a mutt with eyes that could make ya melt! I can be flexible with my schedule with enough notice. Im a strong communicator and expect the same from clients for everyones well being. Let me know your needs! I’ve done plenty of pet sitting and my philosophy is treat the home like it’s your grandparents house. When walking and caring it’s about being present with that animal and nurturing it. We want to keep the pet calm and happy :)
“I needed a last minute drop in visit with my dog and asked Nancy and within two hours my request was completed! Getting pics of my sweet boy was icing on the cake. Breathed a huge sigh of relief! She’s the best!”
About: I’ve worked at a Vet Clinic and dedicated my time to helping animals in my career as well as for my friends and family’s animals. I have an extra special place in my heart for our sweet seniors as well. I have lots of experience watching multiple animals in one household. I am currently a flight instructor building time to become a pilot. I would work pet/house sitting into my schedule as I am able to during the week when I am not flying! As of now, my house sitting services with animal care included will not include an overnight stay, but I will stay as late as possible and come back early in the morning. Please let me know when booking the house sitting service that this policy aligns with your plans. Pet parents know their pet best. Any request or routine you have for your pet I will follow to a T as I know pets thrive in a routine and when their parents aren’t around I will strive to keep that routine for them to make them as comfortable as possible.
About: Hi there! I’m Belma — a 27-year-old nurse with a flexible schedule and a huge love for pups. I work 12-hour shifts, 3 days a week, which gives me plenty of time on my days off to care for your pet! I have a 5 year old golden retriever of my own and have experience raised two puppies. I’ve also spent years volunteering with animal shelters in the Willoughby–Eastlake area and grew up around all kinds of pets — from birds and cats to hamsters and dogs. I’m primarily offering drop-in visits and dog walking. I’m very active and love going on walks — so why not bring your furry friend along for the fun? I’m available most weekdays and cover both the Cleveland and Columbus areas depending on my workweek. Let me know if your pet has any special needs or medications — I’m happy to accommodate. Looking forward to meeting your four-legged family member! I work 3 days a week, 12 hour shifts so I am off 4 days a week currently and very flexible on those days. My work schedule does vary week to week however and I am both in Cleveland and Columbus during those times so we can discuss this further Currently looking for those needing assistance with dog walks throughout the day and drop in visits for potty breaks and shorter walks while you’re at work! No home care at this time.
About: I've had pets all my life and love to spoil them. I will love and spoil your fur baby just like I do mine. They are such big part of our lives. I'm currently working part time and my schedule is very flexible. Willing to help at anytime with loving care and plenty of play time and loving on them. My little girl was a given to me at 3 weeks old. I spent many days and nights making her a happy healthy puppy. Love her with all my heart.
About: I am an adjunct instructor in art at Penn State Beaver looking to supplement my income with pet services. While I love leading a classroom, my other love is to take care of animals! I am excited to spend time with different animals through Rover. I have taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was ten years old. I have been relied upon to feed and walk animals regularly and have been paid for my services. I'm currently working part-time and my schedule is flexible, so I can work around whatever you need! I can do visits anytime throughout the day. I'm available to be scheduled on weekdays and weekends upon request. Please feel free to reach out! If you have a dog (or multiple dogs), I can take care of feeding and walks. If you have a cat, I can do feeding and change the litter box. I love all kinds of animals— including dogs and cats! I’m more than happy to give your pets ample attention and playtime when I visit as well. If you’d like, I’m also open to be booked to stay overnight at your place with your pets!
About: I’ve cared for all types of animals throughout my life - birds, horses, cows, snakes, pigs, sheep, and of course dogs and cats as well. There is a mix of caring for them professionally for pay and volunteering, as well as my own pets. I have always had a connection with and love for animals! I have open availability for pet care as we have our own we must be available for throughout the day. I am not currently working otherwise to focus on our house and would be thrilled to do pet care in the meantime. My husband and I have 2 sons at home, 9 and 15, as well as 5 pets - a small snake in a large, secure tank, 2 wonderful and loving cats and 2 energetic dogs. I do not work currently as I’m working on our home, so I would be available for constant care. I’m currently putting a fence up in our backyard, but behind our house is a dog park we bring our dogs to daily to exercise. All of our pets are friendly and excitable around others! We also cook our dogs food at home and would be happy to do so for our new friends.
About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician. I have 2 dogs of my own as well as 3 cats and 6 horses. I am able to give medications if that is something your pets needs. I can feed, water, walk, clean litter boxes and give plenty of playtime and attention while you are gone for the day or out of town. I can care for your senior pets, your new kittens/puppies or those that fall in between. I will follow the instructions you have in place and will work to help keep your pet happy and safe while you're away. I do have experience working with the aggressive and unfriendly as well as the overly friendly pets. If you have pets outside of the "norm" like reptiles and livestock I can also help with them. I'm currently working part-time so I have pretty open availability. I work with pets as part of my job so I know how to handle a wide variety. At this time I currently don't offer in my house care. I have 2 dogs, one of which who is reactive to smaller dogs so this isn't something I will likely offer.

Emma C.
“I have known Emma since she was a baby! From the time she could crawl she had a love and fascination with all creatures. Roly Poly bugs, cats, dogs, bunnies, chickens, cows, horses, you name it if Emma came across it, whether books, TV show, adventures outside she became fascinated with every aspect of the animals(Still is). Anytime she comes across a new animal she does a deep dive to find out all she can about them. When She comes across any animal that is wounded or showing signs of illness, She will research and call local vets to see how she can help the animal. She has aided in helping rescue ducks and bunnies and get them to the proper facility to aid their recovery. Emma has watched my own fur babies on multiple occasions is loving and caring with them. They adore her and always are happy to see her. We are lucky to have Emma to rely on to take care of them when we are away.”

Belma C.
“I couldn’t be happier with the best pet walker ever, Belma! My dog, Max, is always so excited when Belma arrives. its clear that he’s treated with the utmost care and attention. Belma is a beautiful, bright, hilarious, punctual, and professional, and truly loves animals, which makes all the difference. Max gets a great walk every time, whether it’s a brisk run, a leisurely stroll, or some playtime at the park, I know he’s in great hands with belma. I also appreciate the detailed updates I receive after each walk, including photos and information about the route, which reassures me that he’s having a fun and safe experience. It’s evident that Belma goes above and beyond to ensure that my dog is happy, healthy, and well-exercised. Plus she is extremely kind! I highly recommend Belma’s service to anyone in need of reliable and loving care for their pets!”
