“Lori and Daisy had a great time! Lori kept me informed while I was away with sweet photos and texts. My apartment was in great shape upon my arrival home. Bed linens washed and replaced, kitchen cleaned up and all dishes put away. I will definitely ask Lori to stay with Daisy in the future! 😊”
“We had a good experience with our pups. There was a lil hiccup with her other job that impacted the review. She was apologetic and attentive. Would book again!!”
“Dana is an amazing pet sitter! Awesome communication and cute photos of my dog🫶 they handled my garden, house plants, and chickens too! Everything was amazing. I couldn't recommend them to pet sit more!”
“We would absolutely recommend having Shari care for any of your pets while you are away. We went overseas for 15 days and hired Shari to stay at our house to care for our 4 cats and 2 huskies. She was amazing. The dogs had a ton of walks, all animals were well taken care of. Shari was also an excellent house sitter. I will absolutely be reaching out to Shari again for our future pet sitting needs. Thank you so much Shari!!”
“If I could leave 10 stars then that would be my rating for Sandra! My dogs love her and they are very calm when she is around. It felt like I left my beloved animals with a family member. Thank you Sandra!”
“Devaney was amazing with our high energy/high anxiety pitty mix. We were so nervous to leave because last time when we didn’t have a sitter (just intermittent walker/feeder) she tore up the place with anxiety. Devaney sent me frequent updates and pictures all weekend and we even came home to a very clean apartment. She gave my cat lots of loving as well! 10/10 recommend and will be booking with her again!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a kid. From my own pets, to family members' and neighbors' pets. I do have an AS degree in Animal Health and before college I was a dog groomer. I enjoy making furry friends. I am currently work remotely for myself. Therefore, I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pets. I am available anytime. When caring for your pets in your home, I will stick to their regular routines and schedules, while providing them some extra time and attention.
“Andrew is communicative and reliable. He kept us updated our entire trip and took great care of our animals. Your fur babies will be in good hands with him.”
“Lindsey was awesome! She watched our 2 dogs and cat during the day and overnight. She was very attentive to our “girls” needs and contacted us when she had a question. Lindsey sent pictures and the girls were very happy when we got home. The house was immaculate. We look forward to having Lindsey house sit our girls again in the future!”
“Pups love Shay, easy to schedule and work with. Look forward for more pup visits”
About: I’ve owned and cared for my own dogs for over 25 years, all of them rescues. I have a deep love for animals and a soft spot for those in need. My pets have always been part of the family, and I’m known for spoiling them with love, attention, and treats (within reason!). I’ve nursed several of my dogs through illnesses, always going the extra mile to make them feel safe and cared for. I bring that same level of compassion and commitment to every pet I look after. I’m recently retired after 31 wonderful years with Chardon Local Schools, and now I have the time and flexibility to focus on something I truly enjoy — caring for animals. I’m home most of the day, which means your pets will get plenty of attention, companionship, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just relaxing company, I’m here to make sure your pets feel loved and comfortable while you’re away. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether I’m stopping by for a drop-in visit or taking your dog for a walk, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs. I follow your instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and always make sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Nicole did a great job adjusting to last minute changes in watching Maxine. There was a last minute need to administer meds and ointments and keep an eye on a surgical wound. Nicole did a great job adjusting to the situation. Thanks for that.”
“Erin took my Bella in such short notice, which made me realize how great and flexible she is with her schedule. She’s also very friendly in person which made me feel comfortable. Thanks so much for watching her while I was out of town.”
“Katy was a wonderful doggie and house sitter. She made our pup feel comfortable and was very in tune with her needs. She also kept our lab very active with walks, potty breaks, and even playtime with other dogs, which our puppy loves!! She was super responsive and provided so many sweet pictures and videos that helped make it easier being away. I would 100% use her again!”
“Holly was amazing.”
“Emma is a dream!!! I cannot recommend Emma highly enough! She took care of my two pups with so much love and attentiveness—it gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She sent regular updates, photos, and even FaceTimed me, which made me feel so connected. When I came home, the house was spotless, and my dogs were calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. Emma went above and beyond in every way!!! She’s reliable, kind, intuitive, and has a true gift with animals. I feel incredibly lucky to have found her. I already hope to book her again!”
“Alyssa took care of our house and two fussy dogs during our trip. She is prompt, conscientious, and professional. The house was in perfect shape when we returned. I can confidently recommend Alyssa.”
“Do not hesitate to hire Gany. She is bright and caring and did everything I asked her to do. Best of all my two little doggies loved her.”
About: I am a true and genuine animal lover. I prefer the floor to the couch and enjoy spending time with anyone who has scales, fin, feathers and especially fur! My young adult children, husband and I support each other with specific clients in order to make sure pets always have proper care. My young adult children care for pets in their own environment in order to not disrupt routines. We stay as close to THEIR schedule as possible with little interruption. If you have any questions and would like to talk; I would welcome your call. Thank you, in advance, for your time! I own my own business and work part-time from home. I schedule myself in order to be available to my furry clients. Their well-being is my priority! I live on several acres and of that have one acre completely fenced, which I host on SniffSpot. II keep my home very clean while still keeping it animal friendly.
About: I have pet-sat for 4 years and I love taking care of animals. I also understand that animals are their own kind. They have to get to know you to be comfortable around you! Once they are comfortable with you, that is when you give them excitement and love! I would work part time and stay at the clients house over night. Two out of the seven days of the week, I will have classes to go to but will visit throughout the day! Other days I will stay at the house with the pets making sure they aren't lonely, play with them, and give them walks! I care for the pets in the clients home. I am unable to have them board at mine. I am able to feed and play with them and whatever the client suggests I should do!
