Dog Boarding in Maplewood, OH

“Kristi definitely made this a much easier experience for me! My dogs are my family & they’ve never been with anyone other than close friends of mine. So I was nervous but she made me feel at ease. I’m assuming they had a blast because they were exhausted when they came home. I will definitely come back to Kristi next time it’s needed!”

“Angie and her family are always so great with our dog, we never worry when leaving her. Even this time with leaving her overnight. So thankful for Angie and this platform!”

About: We are both retired and love to take care of dogs. We have a five acre farm with 1/2 acre fenced in yard. Our beagle is always happy to have visitors. We are both retired educators so we have plenty of time to dedicate to your babies! We are empty-nesters so your pets will be our children while they are in our home. We live in the country and have a large fenced backyard. We treat our dog like a loving child. We both love having dogs visit and take delicate care of other dogs.

About: Hi there, my name is Kristen and I have a slight dog obsession. November 2024 started year four of me owning and operating a pet care company that is listed as an LLC in Ohio, and I have loved every single second of it! While on a walk your dog will be my sole focus. I will be sure to select a different route (if possible) during each walk to help them get familiar with their area, but to also help stimulate their brain with the different scents. If you have multiple dogs that need to be walked separately, for any reason, I will rotate my routes so that each dog is exploring a different area instead of where their fur sibling just was. I am happy to go as fast paced, or as leisurely as Fido wants to take our time together. My typical drop-in (play date) visit consists of the following: enter and greet your beloved furkid who will be totally excited to see me (hello treats!- only if it's okay with you first), and then take them outside to potty. While outside I am happy to play fetch, or any other activity they're interested in. Once we come back in I check the water/food situation, and am happy to take care of any medical needs that may be required at this time from giving pills to injections. There's time for a snuggle, or a game, and then it's one last potty break before I head out for the morning or afternoon. I send detailed Rover cards after every visit, and will include as many photos as possible. Dog walking/pet sitting is my passion and full time career. Even while having a steady schedule I have the flexibility that allows me to get to your VIP quickly while maintaining a high level of quality care for all of the animals I care for. From how your pets eat their meals, to sleeping arrangements I try to keep things as normal as possible for them. During my time with your pet they have my undivided attention.

“Michelle is an amazing and caring dog sitter. She worked with me as my dates changed which helped me a great deal. She's also well knowledgeable about dog's behavior. I will hire her again for my dog, Josie.”

“Hillary made our first experience with Rover great! Our dog Georgie was apart of our wedding ceremony and needed him to go somewhere during the reception. Hillary was more than happy to pick him up from our venue and take him back to her home for the evening! She took him on a trail walk and sent pictures throughout the night. It made our wedding day even better knowing he was in great hands with her and her family!”

Lindsey P.

“Alexis was great to partner with, very communicative. She sent pictures everyday and was attentive to our fur baby.”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my strong experience working with dogs and puppies of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, starting with pets belonging to family and friends, which helped me build a solid foundation of hands-on experience with dogs in everyday home environments. I’m especially comfortable with puppies and understand the patience and consistency they need while learning routines like potty training, crate training, leash walking, and basic commands. I also enjoy helping reinforce positive behaviors through structure, repetition, and lots of encouragement. For adult dogs, I adapt easily to their personality—whether they are high-energy and need plenty of exercise or more relaxed and prefer a calm routine. I also have experience with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, and extra attention to comfort and mobility. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, and behavioral cues, so they feel secure and understood while in my care. My goal is always to create a safe, trusting environment where dogs feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially with my availability in the afternoons and evenings. Since I work part time, I have ample time during the day to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I enjoy spending my evenings going on walks, which would make it easy and consistent for me to provide daily exercise and outdoor time. I also look forward to using my free time for play, feeding, and bonding activities that help build trust and comfort with pets. In my home or a client’s home, I provide pet care with consistency, attentiveness, and respect for the animal’s routine and comfort level. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medication instructions if needed, and any specific preferences the owner provides. I make sure pets always have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean, safe environment. I prioritize daily exercise and enrichment through walks, playtime, and interaction suited to the pet’s age, energy level, and personality. I also focus on building trust through calm, patient handling and positive attention. In a client’s home, I am mindful of maintaining the space exactly as instructed, keeping things clean and secure, and making sure the pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand the importance of routine, so I do my best to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for the pet while their owner is away. Overall, my approach is to care for each pet as if they were my own—providing reliable, loving, and responsible care tailored to their individual needs

“Jordan was wonderful! Her and her family took such good care of my Benny boy, she even sent pictures while I was away. I would highly recommend her!”

“Angela and her family took great care of our pug! We got lots of photo updates and felt like he was really well loved and cared for while we were away!”

About: I have owned dogs, cats, horses, chickens, cows, fish and birds. I love animals and I currently have none! I believe in treating a pet with the same respect that I want to be treated. I am very patient and understanding of various personality traits and needs. I am a full time teacher so I am available outside of the teaching time and during my breaks and days off! I am very flexible. I have the week of Thanksgiving off work, plus 2 1/2 weeks at Christmas and I have weekends, evenings and early morning available. If you need the pet to stay at my house, that's no problem, either. I have a fenced in yard and pet-friendly furniture. I treat pets like humans, I have a fenced in yard and I give lots of attention. I can go for walks if needed and I have pet friendly furniture. I can also come to your house, too. I am open to whatever works for you and your pet.

About: Hi! I currently have 2 large bred dogs of my own, as well as foster dogs with the local animal protection league. I worked at a boarding facility and have experience with dogs and cats of all breeds and temperament. I am currently working part time and have plenty of time to spend with your pup! Please let me know your needs and I am happy to make time for your pet. I am happy to drop in or walk your dog while you are away! I love to spend time with dogs and will treat them like one of my own.

“I cannot speak highly enough of our experience with Amanda. She watched our 2 dogs this week, 2 separate times that we needed to travel overnight. You can tell she genuinely adores every dog she cares for and she is so great about sending updates and pictures. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for peace of mind when they have to be away from their fur babies.”

About: I’m a pet lover who enjoys spoiling and sending back home ;). Unfortunately, my work schedule does not align with the love and care a pet would need full time right now which is why this is perfect for us all! I will only provide boarding for a single pet unless they come from the same family home so they will have all of my attention! I love walks so if your pup does too then it’s a perfect match! You won’t need to worry about your pet on vacation because I promise they will be vacationing themselves! On the days of availability I will be home full time with all attention available to your pet! I only provide care to one pet at a time (unless they are coming from the same household) so they will be very spoiled! I love walks so if your pet does too, we are a perfect match! I have a fenced in yard and do not have any animals in the house. Your dog will have access to the inside and outside. They do need to be trained but I do also keep in mind that accidents happen.

“She took great care of buddy and taught him a bunch of new commands that have really come in handy! I would recommend to a friend looking for someone to watch/train their dog!”

“Emily was fantastic with our dogs! She was so organized, kept us updated on the boys, and her set up for them was phenomenal. It gave us such peace of mind that they were safe, well cared for, and happy. I did not have a single worry when they were with her and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Thanks Emily!”

“Debbie did a great job taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She was easy to communicate with, sent pictures frequently, and everything was great.”

Christina S.

“They took great care of my pup, checked in with updates, and ensured she god along with their German Shepherd great! Definitely recommend Devan and will be boarding with him again!”
