“From the first meeting, my dog, who is wary of strangers, ran right up to Georgia and asked to be picked up. That's about the highest endorsement that anyone can get! Georgia took great care of my dog, is reliable, and I feel very safe leaving him in her care.”

“Taylor was great with my dog, Nika. She accepted a last minute booking when my regular sitter fell through which was a lifesaver for both me and my dog’s old lady bladder! My dog was also comfortable enough with Taylor to eat some food so that was an added bonus. I’ll be happy to book with Taylor again”


About: I grew up with dogs cats and many other animals. Because of that around the age of 10 family and friends would ask me to check in on pets or house sit for a day or two. I deeply enjoy looking after fur babys they are all so unique and beautiful. I currently am looking for employment so I have alot of free time and even then Im looking for part time employment. I deeply enjoy working with animals of all kinds so Im looking to see if this can stay a side hustle. I have experienced walking bigger dogs and even cats! I once stayed at a family friend’s house and took care of their hamsters, chinchillas, cats and dog! So I have a wide range of experience when it comes to caring for pets!
“The BEST! I was worried about leaving my senior girl for a few days, but Marcus had it under control! Effie loved being with him! In fact, when I returned from my weekend trip, after I greeted her, she walked to the hall to see if anyone else was coming. She was hoping for Marcus! 😁 Good communication and good prices. I highly recommend Marcus!”
“Jenna was absolutely amazing with our dogs! She was so kind and patient with them and took awesome care of them while we were out of town. Our dogs tend to be a little nervous but she was so patient and kind with them and they warmed up so quick to her! She is so reliable and it was such a relief to know that my pups were in good hands. Thank you Jenna!! You’re the best!”

“This was my first time using Rover & what an amazing experience Katie provided! She’s incredible communicative, sent us cute pictures of our cats at each drop in, and was overall just a very kind & reliable person to work with. Absolutely would recommend Katie and I know we’ll be reaching out to her again in the future to come hang with our cats :)”

About: I have been a pet owner and lover my entire life since I was a young girl I C always wanted to take care and charge of my family pets I have had numerous pets at a time I offer my full attention and love and concern always take my dogs to vets for any reasons any concerns because I want them extra healthy. I love dogs The most but I do enjoy all animals the same.

About: Update June 1, 2026. I have taken a part-time job and right now I can only accept cat drop in requests . Unfortunately I can’t commit to dog walking because of this part-time job unless it’s on the weekend. I am answering as a pet owner. I am hoping to start working as a pet sitter/dog walker soon. As a kid we had birds and hamsters, then graduated to cats when I was about 14. As a young adult I usually had up to 4 cats at the same time. When my kids were in high school, my husband introduced me to dogs by re-homing a dog named Lucy. We still have her. I had never had dogs before but I am so glad I did not say NO to hubby at the time. We have 2 dogs now but no cats. I do miss having cats and hope to again some day. I left my job of 34 years and would love to do something I have been wanting to do for a long time but never got around to. I am happy to care for cats too! At my house we have invisible fence to keep the dogs from leaving the yard, though our younger dog needs to be on a long lead because he is so excitable and cannot always be trusted to stay in the yard. We also have invisible fence inside to keep both dogs out of the kitchen.
“Roxanne is wonderful! She was very communicative and prompt, and did exactly what she said she would do with our dog. We absolutely trust her and will use her again. We highly recommend her :-)”

“Lisa did a great job on her first couple of drop ins for my dog. She was very flexible and accommodating, even when I had to change some visit times on her last minute. It’s clear she cares about animals and was very communicative during drop ins, which I really appreciate. I would definitely recommend Lisa and will be using her again.”
About: Hi! My name is Ebony, and I’m a college student pursuing a degree in Veterinary Technology. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and currently have a dog of my own, so caring for animals isn’t just a job… it’s my passion. With my background, I’m comfortable administering oral medications, recognizing changes in behavior, and responding appropriately in emergency situations. Cleanliness and organization are very important to me, and I always make sure your home and your pet’s space are left tidy. I am more than happy to provide regular updates and photos, so you always know how your fur baby is doing while you’re away. ❤️ While I attend school full-time , my availability outside of classes is fully dedicated to your pet’s care. I currently offer in-home sitting and walking services so your pet can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their daily routine. I understand how important patience, consistency, and compassion are when it comes to building trust with both pets and their owners. I strictly follow all provided feeding schedules, dietary needs, medication instructions, and routines to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their own home. Thank you for considering me as your sitter ❣️
About: Hi, My name is Angelique, a.k.a the dog whisperer--- or at least I wish! However, I do have a passion and love for animals. Currently, I have Shih Tzu named Kayley, my pride and joy! Additionally, I am apart of an organization that raise service dogs. I have interacted with all species of dogs. They always bring a smile to my face and light to any situation. I whole heartily believe that a dog is a man's best friend. They have shown nothing but compassion, loyalty, and honor to human. Even though they are not humans, they deserve love, care, and loyalty as well. I am patient and fully of energy to help so it would be an absolute honor to serve your dog big or small. I am currently working full-time. However, I would be happy to help in pet care after 3:30 pm and anytime on the weekends! Thank you! I believe taking care of animals requires patience and the ability to learn each individual animal and how they interact with humans. It is important to bond with them and important to keep them safe to the best of our ability!
“I needed help last minute. Savannah was more than willing to help and responded quickly. She took tons of pics of my boy and adjusted to our needs. I will be contacting her again.”

About: I currently have a Labrador Retriever and a cat. Before that, I raised a golden retriever that lived to 11 years of age. I’m near the MetroParks, so even though I don’t have a fenced in yard, there’s plenty of opportunity for walks! I know that a calm dog is a happy and obedient one that won't get into trouble. My previous job as an ABA therapist has helped me better myself as a dog trainer with the reinforcement system. I understand it’s hard leaving a dog at a strange and unfamiliar place. I’m here to set your mind at ease so you can enjoy your vacation or other event. I’ll send updates and pictures of your pup. I’m dedicated to making animals feel like they’re at home, as I wish the same for my pets when I’m away. After the service is provided, kindly leave me a review so others can know of your experience. Currently I work from home 3 days a week, so will be able to take your pets on walks at the MetroParks and enjoy Bow wow dog beach in Stow when the weather is nice. I’m at home during the weekends. I have a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog easily if needed. I am in an apartment, but there’s convenient side walks and paths for taking bathroom breaks multiple times per day.
“Angelina was great with our dog and 3 cats! Let me know exactly what was happening with the weather and reached out when she encountered our dog who doesn’t like to go out in cold weather!”

Halie is an exceptional person and sitter!! We are so appreciative of her kindness to our 4 rescue cats. They all loved her and that’s saying a lot as one of our babies is super duper skittish. Cat moms and dads- totally book with Halie! So grateful for her and so happy to have the peace of mind that comes with complete trust of your fur babies when you go out of town!! 10/10!! Thank you so much Halie!!!!

Sharon is great I booked her for 8 days of caring for my cat She was in contact daily about his behavior. She playyed with him in addition to feeding and cleaninng up. I rely on her judgement when anything comes up. I am grateful to have such an attentive sitter for my sensitive boy!

Taylor was great with my dog, Nika. She accepted a last minute booking when my regular sitter fell through which was a lifesaver for both me and my dog’s old lady bladder! My dog was also comfortable enough with Taylor to eat some food so that was an added bonus. I’ll be happy to book with Taylor again
