“Our dog received excellent care from Madi for an overnight house sitting. Madi communicated regularly and provided several updates and pictures. Our home was kept clean. Most of all, our dog seemed to have a fun and comfortable experience. We would highly recommend Madi!”

“Breon is the best!! See my prior reviews for more appreciation for her :) Breon just watched our pups for an extended stay and she was incredible as usual. She always keeps us posted with how the pups are doing and sends such fun photos and videos. Our dogs absolutely adore her! Breon is great with communication and this eases worries when away from our furbabies. We know they’re always in good hands and she treats them like her own. Breon is an absolute gem and we are so glad to have found her to take care of our girls!”

“Maia was incredible. 🤯🎉🎊 She kept us updated and took care of the house. We had some people come to the house to move furniture and repair some things and Maia remained flexible through the entirety of that endeavor. The dogs clearly loved her and we’d be absolutely delighted to utilize their services again. 🦮🐕‍🦺🐕 She did some awesome, creative activities with the dogs too!!! 🎨 What a wonderful surprise to come home to the crafts she made with them! Strongly recommend her services 😊”

“Emily was great! She sent lots of pictures and made sure my dogs were taken care of while I was out of town, especially when one wasn’t feeling well. I would definitely have her pet sit again!”

“Aspen was amazing! She was available for a last minute booking and took great care of our dogs. Our dogs took to her immediately! Both can be a little skittish around new people, but within 5 minutes of meeting Aspen, they were asking for belly rubs! I will definitely be a repeat customer!!”

“Jessica was fantastic! Tucker had a great weekend with her where he enjoyed playtime, walks, and cuddles! Jessica was very communicative and sent several updates.”

Laura S.

“Danielle was truly heaven sent while we were on our honeymoon. Our dog has special needs and she handled everything like a pro! Our pup even had some tummy troubles while she was there and she went absolutely above and beyond to take care of him until we could get back. We are so grateful to have found Danielle and we will absolutely book with her again!”

Maddi S.

“Elizabeth took great care of our 2 year old dog, Rory. She was completely reliable, sent lots of pictures, and we could tell he was well loved when we returned home. She left our house very clean and communicated well with lots of pictures while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again!”

About: I have taken care of different breeds and ages of dogs. I have taken care of senior-aged dogs with a variety of needs as well as younger pups! I have even gained the trust of more protective/nervous dogs and have successfully taken care of them. Hello! I’m a teacher, so my weekday availability is extremely limited! However, I usually am able to make more drop-in visits and walks on the weekend! During the school year, when I house sit I make sure that all needs are met before leaving for the day (food, water, walks) and that they get everything they need before bed time! I’m usually able to do a morning and evening/night walk! I do my best to care for your pet the same way you would! Any entry routines or special meal time requirements you do for your pet, I'll follow those as well! While there, I keep spaces clean and am very mindful of everything in your home,

“I had Avery petsit for my cat Nala and it was totally flawless from start to finish. I would recommend anyone thinking of using this service to really consider using Avery as they showed professionalism and kindness throughout. 10/10! =)”

“Meg is a gem! She is likable, easy to deal with, and always responds quickly. Most importantly, she is very loving with the dogs. We used her previously for a daytime stay and then again for a 5-night stay, and everything went great! The dogs love her, and we never worried about them during our trip. She left the house in order and just as we left it. I selfishly don't want to leave a great review because I want to keep her as a secret! She really is the best - we are so happy we found her.”

Brenda A.

“Claire was great and will definitely book her again! She sent picture updates throughout the stay and took great care of our pets and home.”

Paige F.

“Emily is a wonderful housesitter! She communicated with me the week that I was on vacation about my cat and sent pictures daily. My boy was well taken care of and the peace of mind knowing he didn't have to spend a lot of time alone made a big difference. Emily visited us several days before her stay to meet my little guy and made sure she was familiar with his needs. She left the home immaculate as well. I highly recommend Emily for any pet needs and will definitely contact her when I have travel plans again.”

About: I've been an animal person my entire life. I grew up helping pet-sit the neighborhood dogs, and my family loved a rescue German Shepherd/Rottweiler mix from the time I was 10 (she was 2) until she was 15 - she watched us grow up and even visited my college house. As an adult, my heart belonged to January, a border collie/American Staffordshire terrier mix I brought home in my late 20s after seeing her story on the news. She was an energetic, clever puppy who taught me patience, consistency, and the value of positive training. We had 13 wonderful years together before she passed in November 2025. Losing January left a hole in my routine and my heart, and i'm not quite ready to adopt again - but i've found real joy and healing in caring for other people's pets. I've recently house-sat and hosted dogs, cats, and birds for friends and family, from puppies and kittens to seniors on medications with special needs. That experience, plus a gentle nudge from the people who suggested Rover, is what brings me here. I've used the same trusted vet since I was a kid and know the ropes - comfortable administering medication, contacting the vet, or getting emergency care if needed. Your pet will be loved, watched closely, and cared for like one of my own. I work a hybrid schedule: two days at home (typically Monday and Friday) and three 8-hour days in an Avon Lake office (Tuesday-Thursday). My schedule is flexible and easy to swap these days. I can use my noon lunch break for midday walks, potty breaks, and playtime if you're within 5-10 miles of my location. I’m available in the evenings after work for walks, feeding & visits. I'm also happy to water plants, bring in mail, and handle other small house-sitting tasks. I live in a cozy Lakewood duplex on the first floor with a front yard and porch my dog loved to lounge on (yard stake leash available for safe outdoor time). I already have bowls, beds, leashes, and other supplies, so your pup won't need to travel with a pile of gear. I can board up to two dogs at a time -any size, any friendly mix - but I don't board cats in my home (happy to care for them at yours).

“Elizabeth was phenomenal! She sent pictures everyday of my two cats and kept my mind at ease while being away. Also came home to a spotless home and the place better than when we left it! Will 100% rebook in the future for my next trip.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve also cared for pets for friends and family while they were out of town, including both dogs and cats. I currently have a 4 year old miniature poodle of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pet while you’re away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality, routine, comfort level, and needs, and I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I’m available seven days a week with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide pet care throughout the day and accommodate different routines. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, companionship, feeding, or overnight care, I can work with you to maintain the schedule they’re most comfortable with. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, household rules, and any special needs. I pay close attention to changes in a pet’s behavior or comfort and will communicate with you if I notice anything unusual. When caring for pets in someone’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are secure. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident while they’re in my care.

“Elizabeth was amazing and took such great care of Gus! She sent pictures and videos and kept us thoroughly updated each day that we were gone. We would be very happy to have Elizabeth sit Gus again!”
