Dog Sitting Mentor-on-the-Lake

About: I have taken care of pets for nearly 10 years. From Dogs to cat to even birds. I’m the person that will walk your dog in the snow and enjoy it. I am also the person that will play with your cat for an hour straight. Pets are family and that’s how they deserve to be treated. I’m currently a bartender and big time traveler. I’m looking to make extra cash on weekends by doing what I love which is taking care of your little furry ones. I have fenced in yard for my dogs as well as indoor cats. My pets eat twice a day on a cautious diet due to them being elderly. I walk my dogs everyday if I can and play with my cat every single day as he is old but he’s very playful.

“Great communication and care of our fur family!”

“Rachel is our go to for our dogs! I love the rover report cards I get about them and their time together. She is super reliable and friendly.”

About: I have provided care for many kinds of animals since I was a kid! I grew up caring for dogs, horses, cats, and reptiles, with training experience as well. Friends and family know I love each animal I take care of as my own, and have relied on me for care of any pet! I’ve had dogs as small as a mini dachshund to an english mastiff from ages 6 months until seniority. I am currently taking a rest from the typical 9-5 life. What that means for pet owners, is that their pet’s care is my number one priority throughout the day. I try to stick to a routine they are used to for comfort. I have had pets needing many different types of environments. I can do early morning meds/meals, walks and other enrichment activity’s, and any evening needs! Every animal is special and requires their own care, and I am here to do everything they need for their mental and physical health.

“Thanks Leah for taking such good care of Charlie! He seems to have enjoyed your company. I appreciate your offer of an extra visit after he threw up and also that you cleaned it up. Lol! I’ll be I touch again.”

“Anthony was great with our dogs and even showed up for us on a holiday! We really appreciate the updates and thorough feedback. Will be booking again in the future for sure — two happy pups!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14 and also have lived with them my entire life(I have 3). I’ve trained, fed, and bathed dogs. I am available during the week I’m better during the days. Also weekends I can do all day. We can talk through times I have a flexible schedule. I take care of pets in their own home. I am use to a leash training as well as fenced in yards. I am unable to provide a place to take care of others pets.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a kid. I rescued my first baby, Dory, a little over 5 years ago and my heart has never been more full. Since then I have rescued another dog and 2 cats. Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. Taking care of animals is second nature and something I’m truly passionate about. My animals are my world and I am excited to share that love with even more animals. I have a fenced in yard that my 2 dogs love to spend time in. They have an overflowing basket of toys that always seems to be scattered across the house and yard. We take them for walks around the neighborhood and every so often we take them for a hike.

“So nice meeting Kelly today. We can now have peace of mind when we need to go out. Thank you Kelly.”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and I share a special connection with them. I have an Australian Shepherd, Kodi Wilde and a kitty called Audrey. I have over 15 years experience as a professional petsitter. I volunteer at a local animal shelter to walk dogs and give them love and playtime. I believe pets are family members and I will show yours the same love and care I show mine. I will protect your pets and keep them happy. I love to take them for walks or jogs. I am happy to watch them in your home as well. In addition to keeping your furry friends happy and healthy, I can keep you updated with photos and videos so you can relax during your time away. Call or text to set up your complementary meet and greet. My schedule is very flexible. I am happy to accommodate your pets scheduled and keep you updated. My goal is to keep your pet happy and safe while you’re away. We have a large fenced in back yard and I’m also happy to take your dog on hikes! I typical separate pets at feeding time.

About: I have experience with puppies and seniors alike. For the past 5 years I have been responsible for neighbors houses and their pets as well! I work part time at a restaurant about 5 minutes from my house. I have time during the week and weekends after 2 pm on days that I work, as well as 3-4 days a week that are entirely open. I have two dogs of my own who behave well in our unfenced yard but we have two leads as well. They have a regular meal schedule and get all kinds of love and attention between my mom and sister and me. In a clients home I will treat the dogs as the owner would best advise, I would love to be able to be with the animal if needed.

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I currently care for multiple pets of my own. Over the years, I've gained experience caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities, including administering medications as prescribed and following individualized care routines. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets, and I understand the importance of providing dependable, attentive care while they're away. As a pet owner myself, I know that pets are family, and I'm committed to treating every animal with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine, as I care for multiple pets of my own while balancing graduate school and a part-time job. Because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, I make it a priority every day. My class schedule may vary throughout the year, but I strive to maintain flexibility and provide dependable care for the pets entrusted to me. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, house sitting, or administering medications, I'm committed to making sure your pets receive the attention, care, and companionship they deserve while you're away. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision because pets are family. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and caring environment while giving you peace of mind when you're away. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and individual needs and follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and exercise requirements. I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time when appropriate, and I'm committed to caring for every pet as if they were one of my own. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. I love all animals. Cats and dogs are my favorite. But I have also dealt with sugar gliders as well. I love to cuddle and play with the dogs and cats. I do the feeding to the cleaning up after being feed. Letting the dogs out to go potty to the litter box cleaning. If you are looking for someone that loves animals I am the girl you are looking for. I am very reliable and trustworthy with your furry family member. I love animals and wish one day to possible have a shelter of my own to help all animals I need of help. If you need someone to help with baths I can do that too. I can do drop in after 6am -11am and then I can go back after 4pm till 9pm ! I work at ups in the early morning then take care of kids during the mid afternoon into early evening. I currently accept house sitting clients and or drop in visits. I am happy to complete any chores that are needed while you are away.

“Mandy is great with our three doodles. They really enjoy her visits and it’s been a great piece of mind to know she’s got eyes on our pups during long work days. We’d highly recommend her!!”

“Patricia was able to come last minute. She was very thorough. She took pictures of Luca and Luca‘s poop. She followed my directions exactly I was very appreciative.”

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 smaller, high-energy or more timid dogs who may need a little extra patience. I live an active lifestyle, so your dog will get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention based on their needs. I will work with you to create a plan that allows your dog(s) to feel 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: I got my first pet fish, Bobby the Betta, at a young age. Ever since, I’ve loved having animals around (even though my mom didn’t). As an adult, I’ve always had multiple animals and cared for both dogs and cats from puppy days to their final moments. 🌈 I have special expertise in senior care. I had a dog, Symon, who was blind before he passed. After him, I adopted a 11-y-o little called Roxie, who is deaf and blind in one eye. I'm also mom to Pepper (10) and a pro at getting her to take pills with peanut butter and crackers. Oh, and Teddy showed up about a year ago as a kitten, and we haven't been able to get rid of him since. 😂 I work from home for myself (and it's slow season right now) and have a child that I co-parent with his dad. Right now, I have plenty of time to help others care for their pets. If that changes, I'll update my availability. I left my dad three pages of instructions and put post-it notes on all the items and cupboards he needed when I went to visit London last year. I am a routine kinda gal, so I will treat your routines and instructions with respect.

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.

“Bethany is simply the best! Reliable, provides the cutest pictures and clearly cares for our two wild Bernese mountain dogs!”
