“Leslie takes care of my big girl every Tuesday and Wednesday! She sends me update photos and videos all day which I appreciate and look forward to. It makes me feel at ease knowing she is in good hands when I am at work and that she is happy there!”

About: I very much enjoy engaging with and taking care of all types of animals and I have owned and cared for animals since childhood. I have the most experience with cats and dogs but have owned and looked after a range of other pets as well. I can provide the appropriate level of care and attention to your pets that you are looking for and am more than happy to provide as many photos or updates for you to feel good about being away. From puppies to elderly pets I have cared for all ages and types of pets! My goal is to get as many regular clients as possible, so I am very open to working through rates that work for both sides for ongoing or regular services. I have a large SUV so i can also do drop off and pickup if that would be helpful. Because I work from home full-time, I'm able to offer a level of flexibility. I can usually accommodate early mornings, evenings, last-minute requests, and everything in between — just ask! Punctuality and reliability are something I take seriously, so you can always count on me to be there when I say I will. My home is welcoming for all animals and there is an acre and a half in the back with plenty of room to play. I am active and engaged with animals and will make sure any routine or special care requirements are followed.

“Ariel did a wonderful job of taking care of Griffey. We are grateful for her and her dogs, who also welcomed him into their lives for a few days.”

“My dog was well cared for throughout the day and she also had a lot of fun! I am confident my girl received excellent care with Patricia and Paul.”

About: I have taken care of dogs for my entire life, including pet sitting for neighbors and friends. Growing up, we mostly had large breeds dogs, making me uniquely qualified for watching large breeds. My parents’ Newfie is a common household guest. We currently have a Beagle and a Golden Retriever who love making new friends! My husband and I both work from home so we are able to provide constant love and attention throughout the day and can provide lots of potty breaks if requested. At most, dogs may be alone for an hour or two for errands. I treat every pet as if they were my own and take extra precautions to ensure a secure and comfortable environment. We have a fenced in backyard with a 6 foot privacy fence and dogs are always supervised while outside. Clear communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates.

About: ✨ Personalized Cat Care ✨ Hello, friends and fur babies! I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have been a trusted Rover sitter since May 2023. While I grew up around dogs and volunteered at an animal shelter in high school, my professional pet-sitting journey has naturally led me to specialize in personalized, high-quality cat care. I’ve had the opportunity to care for cats of all personalities and needs, including multi-cat households, senior cats, and shy or anxious kitties. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed care routines, and providing patient, attentive support tailored to each cat’s temperament. My approach focuses on consistency, comfort, and enrichment. Each visit is intentional and unhurried, with thoughtful attention given to interactive play, mental stimulation, cozy companionship, and plenty of affection—always respecting your cat’s individual boundaries and preferences. If you’re traveling this holiday season and want peace of mind knowing your cat is receiving attentive, personalized care in the comfort of their own home, I’d love to connect. 🐾🤍 I am currently working full-time as a nanny and part-time as a bartender at a local restaurant. My schedule can be busy, but I am very flexible and will always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Please feel free to message me to discuss your schedule—I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet gets the care they deserve! I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I primarily offer drop-in visits and am highly detail-oriented and attentive when it comes to following instructions. My goal is always to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident in the care I provide. For first-time bookings, a scheduled “meet and greet” is required. This helps prevent any miscommunication about expectations, ensures your pet is comfortable with me, and confirms that I’m a good fit for your family.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since i had my first dog in the first grade. A white Samoyed. When she was 3 she has 7 puppies! I was obsessed with them. We sold 6 and kept one. So we had 2 big white Samoyed’s that I had the responsibility of raising and attending to. They were my whole world. I’m always the first to be asked to watch someone’s dog because if there’s one thing I’m passionate about, it’s loving on dogs. I now have a mini dachshund who i love so much. I have experience with puppies, big dogs, little dogs, and senior dogs. I’m able to train puppies and care for senior dogs who would need more help in their day to day activities such as meds, frequent potty breaks, and patience. I also had an internship with the lake humane society in high school and have a special place in my heart for rescue dogs/cats who could use some extra love. I am currently a stay at home mom with my 8 year old who is in school and 1 year old who both love dogs I figured i could help out some dog momma or daddies who aren’t able to be home with them all day. I am able to let your dog out every couple hours. And even take them for brief walks. We have plenty of dog toys to share, bully sticks (while supervised), treats, and extra dog bowls if needed. My husband is a realtor so is home most of the time if i am not. I crate our dog at home when we leave. I also have a camera just in case to make sure she’s okay while we’re gone. We moved so we don’t have a fenced in yard anymore. But had leads if they want to stay outside for a longer period of time. I also live next to my parents who have a fenced in yard where i could take them if you feel more comfortable with that.

“Biscuit always has a great time over Kelsey's house. He arrives happy and leaves happy! I'm so grateful we found a good sitter for our boy!”

About: Hello! My name is Maria and I am very excited to meet your furry friend! I’ve raised 2 large dogs and 2 small dogs so I am comfortable with any size pet. I also worked at a doggie day care center for a year and a half where I worked with all size dogs for 8 plus hours at a time and facilitated friendly play so I am able to handle multiple dogs or cats at a time! am available for dog walking or a stop in visits. I live in the mentor area but am willing to travel as well. Please let me know if this is the type of sitter you are looking for! I work as a nurse so my schedule is pretty flexible. I care for my own pets with walks, park visits, and agility. I also enjoy caring for other dogs with walks or acting as a dog sitter. I am always cautious when taking care of pets in my home or another persons home. I understand that allowing someone into your home can be nerve racking so I am always sure to communicate as much as I can with home owners and follow their specific instructions to ensure the visit goes as smooth as possible.

“Anghella was wonderful with my dog who is very nervous around people. Her dog is so friendly. I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: Hi, I’m Lora! I have experience with a wide range of dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments—from larger breeds like labs and huskies to including smaller, high-energy or more timid dogs who may need a little extra patience. I live in a house with a yard and lead an active lifestyle, so your dog will get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention based on their needs. I’m attentive, patient, and reliable, and I always aim to keep your dog comfortable and cared for while you’re away. My current routine is mainly focused on keeping up with grad school. I am enrolled full time in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at John Carroll University. I have classes 3x a week for 2.5-3 hours. This would be the only time I would need to leave your pet(s) alone. I live in a 2 story home within walking distance of a park suitable for dogs. I do not have any personal pets in my home. If you are looking for me to host, I live alone so it would just be your pet(s) and me. I will be respectful of not having guests over when I am caring for your pet(s) to ensure they’re given proper attention and feel comfortable in their environment. I have a partially fenced back yard and my front yard is not fenced.

About: My passion for caring for animals began in childhood while growing up on a farm. From a young age, I helped clean stalls, collect fresh chicken eggs each morning, and care for a variety of animals. I was always the kid begging my parents for more pets, and animals quickly became my greatest source of comfort through a tough childhood. I have over 10 years of hands-on experience working on a horse farm, where I learned the value of consistency, safety, and attentive care. In addition, I’ve fostered bottle-baby kittens, assisted my mom in breeding golden retrievers, and helped raise her litters many times. My love for animals has no boundaries — I’ve worked with everything from farm animals to dogs, cats, and even jumping spiders, which I currently breed. I have two dogs of my own — Meme, who is 6, and Pia, who is 3 — and they are my whole heart. They have a daily routine I take seriously: outside time at 6:00 a.m., treats before I head to work, a midday potty break, and an evening 30-minute walk at 5:30 p.m. On weekends, we enjoy adventures at the park or exploring new places. I understand how important structure and routine are for pets, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Over the years, I’ve provided a wide range of pet care — from weekend stays to week-long vacations — both in my home and in others’. Whether it’s an active pup needing exercise, a senior dog requiring gentle attention, or a young animal that needs extra patience, I’m flexible, attentive, and committed to giving each pet the love, safety, and care they deserve. My pups have an entire routine each day. In the morning they go outside at 6:00 am. I do have a fenced in back yard, so I leave my sliding glass door open so they may come in and out. The get treats in the morning before I go to work. I do return home for lunch to let them out to potty. I return home around 5:30 each day and we go for a 30 minute walk. They get their bedtime treat and we start again the next day. On weekends I do like to take them to the park or on adventures. My pups would love some friends, and sleep overs. I know how important my dogs routine and/or schedules are and I would take your pup’s routine just as seriously. The amount of care I offer for pets on a regular basis always fluctuates. I have had pups for a week long vacation, and I have also had just weekend stays. Various weekends I do stay at others homes and care for their pets. I’m very flexible.

“Steve is very nice & his dogs are adorable & friendly would definitely use him again when I'm out that way!”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 10, from working on a farm to just having dogs of my own. I even have experience with three legged dogs, as I owned one of my own! I am super excited to meet you and your fur babies! I promise they will be in great hands of a lady who is enthusiastic, outgoing, and is ready to give endless of love and most likely spoil them! I enjoy the outdoors and am constantly walking and enjoy nature. I have experience with taking care of puppies, to senior dogs. I have administered medicine as well, that be pills in a piece of cheese or having to put it in their food. I am currently waiting to start my new job, I also have a dog of my own and have plenty of time to provide walks, play time and potty breaks. I have plenty of time to do the same with your pups! I am available for onboarding pretty freely throughout the week, and most weekends. I have pups to keep your pup company, if your pup is better off without any other fur friends, I am able to provide a comfortable stay without my baby! I have a crate available if needed that is very spacious and will be comfortable and welcoming with blankets and toys.

About: I currently have a 3 year old mini Australian shepherd. My experience includes watching a puppy overnight, helping train a deaf dog, and taking neighbors dogs on walks. I am a teacher so I am available all of June-August to provide all day care for dogs or just walk dogs during the day. I have a friendly dog to keep your dog company. I also live within walking distance of a bike trail to make sure your dog gets daily walks.

“Pogo had his very first day at daycare with Flora, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! He seemed so at home there as he dove right into the fun activities Flora had planned. It was such a joy to see him having an amazing time! The warm welcome we received was simply amazing. Flora really took the time to understand Pogo’s schedule, which made everything go so smoothly. Knowing he was in such great hands was incredibly reassuring. Flora was just a quick call or text away if we had any questions. As a sweet touch, she left us a handwritten note about Pogo’s day with her, which really put our minds at ease and showed us how much fun he had and the care she took of him. We can’t wait to book with Flora again in the future!”

“I know my fur baby is safe, loved, and cared for with Cheryl. She is very thoughtful and sends beautiful pictures and updates of my baby Owen. She’s detailed orientated and safety is priority for her. I love that I can go to work with a peace of mind knowing he’s having so much fun! He was so excited to be dropped off today. I’m so grateful I found her.”
