ALL DOG SIZES @ Midtown Pet Retreat My life has always been enriched by animals! From gerbils and hamsters to frogs, turtles, fish, and rabbits, I've had a wide variety of beloved pets. I even seem to be a magnet for stray dogs – they always find their way to me! We had 2 recent furry family members - Miss Chewbacca (Chewie) and Worf. Both were rescues and lived to become wonderful senior dogs (15 & 14). I understand the special attention and love they need. Also, please note that I offer pick-up and drop-off services within Cuyahoga County for $50 round-trip fee. If outside of Cuyahoga County, please get in touch with me to discuss

Ratings and reviews
My baby was very happy when I picked her up from Clifford.. we will definitely be using their services again
Clifford was very nice, and provided pictures of my dog. She seemed to enjoy herself and was very well taken care of. I would definitely rebook in the future.
Clifford was absolutely amazing with our dog, Luna! We were looking for a dog sitter here in Cleveland and truly found a gem. He kept us updated, took incredible care of her, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We couldn't recommend him more highly and will definitely be booking with him again!
Kodas first time at a house. Clifford made us feel very comfortable. Koda had a blast running around the backyard. Thank you again
Cliff is amazing! He’s very responsive and has a very calm personality that works perfectly for our dog, Dom, who is a little more on the nervous side. It’s always such a smooth drop off and pick up which clearly shows how much experience they have with dogs. He has a fenced backyard that I’m sure Dom misses and I feel no nerves leaving our dog in Cliff’s care knowing how well they will take care of him. Extra bonuses: Dom loves Marcelle who sends the cutest updates on how he’s doing at “work” and Cliff takes amazing quality photos!! Dom will definitely be back!
clifford & his family were amazing! super communicative from the jump and made leaving my dog with them a super smooth process. could not recommend them enough, 10/10 service all around.

Schedule
We’re fortunate to work from home, which means your dog will have constant companionship. If I ever need to step out, your furry friend will be crated.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My wife (Marcelle) and I live in a welcoming house in a quiet neighborhood, just a short walk from the Cleveland Clinic Main Campus and 20 minutes from UH. We're also close to Wade Oval, Case Western Reserve, Playhouse Square, CSU, Museums, and Theater Districts. Your pup will love our large, securely fenced backyard – perfect for safe playtime and stretching their legs. I provide worry-free pet sitting for those visiting from out of town and traveling with pets. You can relax and enjoy yourself at your wedding, vacation, convention, or other event while in Greater Cleveland. We want to reassure you that we can accommodate you by keeping your pet completely separated from any other pets during her/his/their stay. We operate a dedicated pet care space with secure, individual crates, and we have a fully fenced yard where your dog can enjoy solo playtime. Note: Your dog must be house-trained; we will not accept any dogs that potty indoors -whether that’s on a pee-pad or a dog diaper. I maintain a strictly outdoor-only policy for bathroom breaks. For those interested in an exclusive stay: We typically host up to eight dogs at a time. Since the current standard rate is $50 per dog per day, we normally operate at a capacity. We can certainly keep the house limited to just your dogs if you’d like with the buyout rate of $400 per day to cover the other spots we’d be turning away. Otherwise, if you're comfortable with them being part of the group, they are more than welcome to join the pack! My home is a social, multi-dog environment which is usually a lot of fun for friendly pups. Nevertheless, when necessary, we have the space to keep the dogs separated. Feel free to schedule a Meet & Greet. This is the best way to see how your dogs handle the space and ensure it's a good fit for everyone before your trip.
A typical day
Our main activities will focus on classic canine favorites: being outside and games of fetch or hide-and-seek. Even if you have a senior dog, we'll tailor our activities to their energy levels and preferences. We utilize crating for sleeping (or during short transition periods). I'm always happy to discover what your pet enjoys most! Are there any particular games or activities your dog absolutely loves? FOR DAY CARE PARENTS: Hours are 7:00am- 6:00pm $15 late fee applicable in 15 minute increments
