About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and other pets and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I understand that every animal has unique needs and will work to keep your pet comfortable and happy while you’re away. I am currently a full time online college student and volleyball coach, so I will have plenty of time to attend to your pets! have a flexible routine that gives me time for feedings, walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize clear communication and will make sure your pet receives the care, attention, and routine they are used to while you’re away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, walks or playtime, litter box or waste cleanup, and plenty of attention based on each pet’s personality and needs. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I closely supervise them, follow all feeding and care instructions, and make sure they receive plenty of exercise, enrichment, affection, and rest. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and ensure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Great communication and really goes above and beyond. My dogs made a mess of their pen and she cleaned it up so they didn’t eat anything they shouldn’t.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals from day 1. From the time I was young, I have been a go to for family, neighbors and friends because they saw the joy and tact I displayed with their animals. I know most pets thrive off of routine so I will do what I can to preserve that for your loved ones while you are away. I still pop in for my own family dogs when needed. I have taken care of dogs from the time they were puppies all the way til the end so I understand the scope of care that comes with all ages. I also aided in the training of our chocolate lab in becoming a certified therapy dog. For those full of energy, I have no problem taking them on multiple mile walks if that is what they benefit from! I work full time but with some flexibility. These can change from day to day but you can count on me being available after 5pm on weekdays. I have every other Tuesday off and I’m off on most weekends. My communication is great and you can easily reach me most times! I know life happens and if you need a last minute check in with your pet because you are stuck 3 hours away, I will do what I can to check on your loved one! I have a large expanse of grass right in front of my home with a park right next to my neighborhood. The neighborhood itself is very pet friendly and safe to walk around in. Pets will be on some sort of leash outside. I have no pets currently so I am comfortable bringing their favorite things over to my place to put them at ease. In your home, I follow your rules and anything I am not comfortable with will be addressed right away.

About: I have been taking care of dogs most of my life. I am 57. I have done dog training and agility with 2 of our dogs. I have had a puppy and dealt with Senior dogs too. I love to give our dog lots of attention with play time, walking and outdoor activities. I love to take walks and go to other parks too. With the owner's permission, I love to go to the dog park-Bow Wow dog park and the Akron Dog Park. I give your furry one lots of attention with play time-throwing toys-playing fetch with a ball or toy. Letting them have backyard time. We have a fenced in back yard for the dogs to be free. I also will brush your dog and pet them and give them attention, while you are away. I will treat your dog like he/she is my own dog. Another place I will take dogs is Petsmart or Pet Supplies Plus for social interaction and exercise. I am at home and available most days. We have a 20 year-old Son, who also loves dogs! My Husband helps out too, with walks and letting the dogs out in our backyard and is a dog person. Currently, I am not working. I have a knee problem and some medical issues that prevent me from working full time. I have plenty of time to take care of your dog. We love to take walks and go to the dog parks. However, if you prefer your dog not to go to the dog park, that is fine. We could go on walks and let your dog go outside in our backyard. We have lots of dog toys, bones, balls, etc... I do have a walk thru pet gate that I set up to block off the kitchen and dining room area. We will feed our dog and your dog separately in separate rooms. I love to brush and pet dogs. If needed, we could bath your dog too. We are a "dog" type family, that is our preference. We have had fish, hamsters and also a guinea pig in the past. I grew up with a cat in our home, as a child. We will throw ball and toys for the dogs and play with your dog. We have a small crate that is in our garage, however we don't usually use the crate. If we leave the home, depending on the situation, if your dog is destructive or chewing on furniture or other items, then we will crate your dog when we leave for church or a short errand. If you have a calm dog and the dog is not destructive and well mannered, then your dog could stay in the family room area, unless you prefer that your dog is in his crate. We will use 2 dog gates near our steps to go upstairs. We prefer that our dog and other dogs do not go upstairs. As a House Sitter, I would do any needed cleaning up of any messes I make. I would be bringing my own food, as I am gluten free and dairy free. The only thing I would need is some freezer and frigerated space for my food. I would follow your normal routine for your dog or dogs. I do have occasional Dr and therapy appointments, fyi. We have a home in Akron, with a fence in our backyard. We live near a forest, it is a quiet area. We have a small neighborhood, where the street dead ends to a forest. We don't get drive thru traffic, that use our area as a "short cut".

“Thank you Natasha.”

About: Hello my name is Kristin. I love you caring for animals; all types and all ages. I have had everything from fish and hermit crabs to guinea pigs, dogs, cats, a salamander that lived to be 14 years old. I am happy to just let your dogs out, or play ball with them or take them for a walk down the street. I can stop in to help someone who can't care for their animals due to surgery or health. I can also take care of your farm animals, even just popping in to check the water troughs or buckets in the middle of the day. Prices vary depending on level of involvement. I take regular as well as sporadic appointments if you just want to take a night off and go out or would have an emergency. I do not offer in-house care at my home due to my senior animals. I create my own schedule. I love taking care of all animals: small animals to dogs and cats to farm animals. I have had guinea pigs, hermit crabs, fish, a salamander (who loved to be 14), dogs, cats and horses. I can be flexible, with notice, to suit a client's needs. I am very safe to not let any animals out the door unless they are leashed or have a fenced in yard. I had a cat who was a master escape artist growing up... I have not forgotten. I will follow any directions you have. I am glad to come in and just clean litter boxes for those that have physical difficulty or dislike doing that, etc. I will always be sure your gates and doors are locked when I leave.

“Anne is so good with Max he adores her. She is very responsible and I don’t worry about a thing it’s very comforting knowing she is taking good care of Max.”

About: Life long animal lover - dogs, puppies, cats, horses, ponies and many others. Semi retired and on a flexible schedule so I have time to shower kindness and caring on your pets while you’re away.

“Really appreciate Pat helping us on short notice! She was fantastic with our rather timid and shy cat. Pat allowed our Bella to set the pace for interaction. Very attentive and took such good care with her. She even brought in an unexpected package. Very warm and caring lady. Will definitely use her services again.”

“Kristin watched my dogs for an entire week by making 3 drop ins every day. Kristin kept me up to date with photos and reports for every drop-in! High recommend!”

About: I know how hard it is to trust someone with your pet. My dog is my child and so I take care of others pets with the understanding of how important their pet is to them. I have experience with dog sitting older pets, some that required medication and more intense care. I take it very seriously as I would want someone to do with my dog. I work a full time job but have varying hours. I can do some morning and evenings on those days. Friday and Saturday I do not work and am available anytime. I have a fenced in yard and my dog loves any dog it sees. I do not let my dog outside unsupervised ever and never leave her unattended when either other dogs.

About: I've owned both dogs and cats sense I was little. Throughout my childhood years I would frequently watch over the neighborhood pets. I am especially great at training the little ones as well as entertaining and exercising the energetic type! I currently work part time and am looking to fill some days with something else. When I’m not working I am home taking care of my own dog and doing chores around the house, with plenty of time and energy to take care of whatever furry friend stays with us! I have a house with a fenced backyard, with room for both small and large dogs to run around. My own dog is very friendly and loves to make friends and spend the day wrestling and playing around!

About: I’m not sure that there’s one specific thing that would set me apart from other caregivers however, my best buddy Trouble crossed the rainbow bridge in February. Trouble was a 13 year old Weimaraner that my daughters & I rescued during Covid. Currently, Im not ready to be a dog mom just yet but I am ready to fill the empty space in my heart! I miss having a fur baby to walk with & playing in the yard. I have experience with large breeds , rescues, and seniors. I do work a full-time job Monday through Friday but I work a hybrid schedule & on the weekends I am an early riser so I could start as early as 5 AM. I am soon to be an empty nester and recently lost my fur baby. I am looking to keep busy with some new free time! In my clients home, I will care for their animals just as they do & keeping with their routine. If their dog needs belly rubs , quiet time, snuggling time & playing with & walking, I will do it all!

About: All K9 Solutions is fully insured and licensed here in Akron OH. I've been training dogs for 6 years and professionally for 4 years. After I worked for reputable training companies, one here in Akron area as the head trainer, I decided to open my own company called All K9 Solutions. I grew up with dogs, and have experience with cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, chickens, and ducks as I used to manage a farm as well. I personally network all over the US with other dog trainers. One of my recent travels has been to Kansas to help host a working dog workshop with a few small departments. I have two Belgian malinois who I strive for their needs to be met daily. From mental stimulation to physical stimulation while giving them a “job”. My youngest is 3 years old and does many sports (PSA, AKC sports, and has been dabbling in odor work), and my oldest is 10, he’s a retired military explosives K9 who served on the boarder of Jordan up until 7 years old. Both the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. All of my dogs have off leash obedience training that is kept up with. I have a background in dog training, boarding, and daycare; from puppies all the way to seniors. I strive for knowledge with dogs as there’s always new information to learn and dogs aren’t cookie cutter. I’m also an STSK9 MVP student for advanced obedience. I’m very passionate about teaching others about dogs from genetics and breeds to how their psychology works. My business hours run from 7am-10pm. My availability is open from the afternoon to night time, this way all morning routines are completed, walks, potty breaks, feeding, training sessions etc. All dogs are boarded in a home environment instead of a facility. This way your dogs aren’t as stressed being away from you, and they can comfortably enjoy their vacation too. All dogs are kenneled to ensure safety (not investing anything they shouldn’t, no free roam 24/7 with other client’s dogs you don’t know, and they have their own space to decompress). Since the yard isn't fenced in, all dogs must be leashed with a properly fitted collar with a longline when going outside, a harness, or a slip lead. However, a good peaceful walk with all the smells is always more mental and physical stimulation for the dogs than a fenced in area with limited access. Reactive dogs and fearful dogs are welcome as I have years of experience with them, and training them to grow confidence and obedience. I also have experience with special need's animals. Loud dogs are welcome too. If your dog(s) show healthy body language and do well with other dogs, my two malinois are gentle beings and always love a play mate. Minka especially, she follows the other dog's pace and reads their body language. I do ask that you leave your vet information with me and emergency vet information as well for an emergency contact if ever need be. Better safe than sorry. I also do ask for a second choice of contact incase the primary owner is unable to be reached. All dogs must be up to date on vaccines and bordetella for boarding and daycare. Safety precautions are always taken. For the well being of the dogs and myself. Please note that I do require all important behaviors are made aware of by the owners before hand and I will notify owners upon any concern of sickness or bite risks. I send updates each day as well or will add photos to your rover card.

About: I have been around animals for 43 years. I have volunteered at an animal shelter. I have had my own personal zoo at my house 😊 I am currently working part time so I have lots of time to entertain and cuddle your pets 😊. For the most part I am always available. I have owned my home for 20+ years. I have a large fenced in backyard with plenty of room for playing and lots of zoomies.

“Frank was an awesome Dog Sitter. he went above and beyond to try and help me with my dog that is dealing with some separation anxiety. I highly recommend him!”
