“Keerie took great care of my three kitties! She communicated before and during/after the visit and sent photographs to help put me at ease! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter”

“Katelynn is super nice! She was great with Bella, and Bella loves her too. You can tell she really loves pets. She’s super organized and prompt and knows this application well because she was able to help me reschedule a couple of times. I will definitely be using Katelynn in the future!”

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".

“Amber is an amazing sitter. She will drop in on my pets and give them food and cuddles as well as send me updates and pictures, my pets absolutely loved her!”


About: I am a high school teacher currently off for the summer. I am new to pet sitting, however I love all kinds of pets. I have pet sitter for friends & family before, but newer to Rover! I was raised with dogs and cats, and currently own 2 cats. I also love pit bulls! I am currently off of work for the summer! I work a part time job that is only 1 day a week. I am available the whole day to watch your pets!! I live in a quiet community, that has varying types of animals! I currently have 2 cats that I love dearly ❤️ I live in an apartment style condo on the top floor. 2 bedrooms, with one bedroom being a cat room/office.

About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life and always enjoyed learning their unique personalities and social hierarchies. I am still (forever) mourning the loss of my childhood dogs and funnel my love for them towards any dog I encounter. I was a 4Paws sitter in college, so I have experience with socializing puppies and some basic training, while adapting to the dog's different ages. I have a cat of my own that I love like my own human child, and I spread that care and joy to any kitty I encounter! I am currently very flexible as I am new to the area and between jobs. I have the time to show your pet the care and love that it needs while you are gone! I have my own car so I can easily travel to care for multiple pets if necessary. My yard is not entirely fenced in, but there is grass in the back and front. I have one cat in my home, so I require cat-friendly dogs that can ideally be crated for short periods if needed. As far as other cats, I know it can be situational, but I do have the space to keep the cats separated to begin with/ the whole visit if necessary. All of our indoor plants are pet-friendly as well!
“So glad I came across Lindsay, I had to head out of town last minute and she came in clutch. We weren’t able to do a meet and greet beforehand but we were able to figure something out and everything turned out fine. Will definitely keep her mind for the future!”
“Thanks for watching Fergie & Sy this weekend! They looked like they had a great time! Happy to hear Fergie wasn’t scared and Sy wanted pets! Thanks for always taking such good care of them!”


About: Hello! I am a medical assistant who pet sits on the side. I grew up with dogs and feel comfortable sitting dogs of any size. I can provide your pet with the care it needs including but not limited to daily exercise, medication needs, potty breaks every 4-8 hours, enrichment activities, and plenty of pets. I do work a standard 8-4:30, but could tweak my routine to best fit your pet. I love to exercise, so if your dog is up for a couple laps around the block, I would be happy to have a buddy join me. I’m also studying for the MCAT’s, so evenings our usually spent studying indoors, and I’d love to squeeze some play breaks in or have a cuddle buddy with me as I study. As a sitter, I will always follow the owners guidelines and never take any liberties with your pets. I will leave your home just as I first saw it. If there are any other tasks, like bringing in mail, I am also happy to help with that.
“Brittany was so awesome and helped us out in a pinch! She dropped in to let our dog out to go to the bathroom and to feed him dinner, and even took him on a walk. She was punctual, thorough and gave us a great report with pictures after. Will definitely be reaching out again!”

“Anna was great with my pup! She had never been cared for by anyone and was very afraid. Anna was very patient with her and made her feel comfortable. Would definitely book her again!!”

“Dailie was great! She was able to help us out on short notice for a couple of drop ins and we were very pleased with her services. Punctual, courteous, and caring of our dog. Would hire again!”


About: I’ve owned dogs and cats my whole life and I’ve been taking care of other people’s pets since I was in high school and have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m a stay at home mom with a husband who works remote so I’m very flexible! This allows me to provide consistent care, frequent potty breaks, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pet will receive plenty of supervision and companionship while in my care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided. I always keep pets supervised, ensure doors and gates are secure, and pay close attention during walks and outdoor time. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Northwest Akron is $20

I would definitely book Erin again and recommend her to anyone looking for a good cat sitter! Erin was responsive, followed all instructions, and my cats loved her! I especially appreciate it since my booking was so last minute and I wasn’t able to prepare as much as I usually do.

Brianne did an amazing job with my pets! I felt very good leaving them in her hands while I was on vacation. She sent great photos and updates while I was away and the kitties were clearly well taken care of while I was gone. She even did a good job with Sushi-- my more anxious cat.

Abby is kind, friendly and a great communicator. She watched our two cats over the holidays, and our cats loved her! Our finicky cat who normally hides from strangers for days was sitting in Abby’s lap within the first two days of our trip. She kept our place clean, and let us know if anything was wrong, or had any questions. We will absolutely book Abby again when we go out of town.

Missy was so wonderful with my puppy Corbin! I had zero concerns leaving him in her hands. She was very communicative, followed directions, was respectful of my home, and was detailed in her updates. The photos she included in her updates were the highlight of my day! I could tell she really enjoyed her time with him and he was having fun and felt safe with her. Thank you so much, Missy!!!

Extremely grateful for Morgan and her help with my boys. Even my shy boy came out to say hi to her! Loved the notes and pictures she included on the Rover cards. Additionally, she was very easy to communicate with and get in touch with. Will definitely be requesting her help again in the future!

Jacob is very friendly, communicative, reliable and very accommodating as I needed someone at the last minute. He did a great job with my dog Koda. I strongly recommend Jacob for pet services. He was very responsible and helpful and set my mind at ease while I was traveling. Yamini Adkins
