House Sitting in Orrville

“This was my first experience with Rover and Laura was absolutely the best I could ask for!!! My dogs are seniors and can require some additional attention. Laura was so patient, kind and kept me up to speed on how things were going at the house! Laura is truly a professional and an animal lover!! I will definitely request Laura for my next getaway! Thank you Laura for making me feel like my boys were well taken care of and loved!!”

“Konnie was incredible! We have had many pet/house sitters in the past and she exceeded all expectations and went above and beyond. We are so happy we found her! Our dogs, Bella and Duncan, loved her and we could tell she loved them! She kept them in their routine which was so important to us. She sent lots of photos, and even left a few for us to see when we got home! She left our house as clean as we left it. It was so nice to come home to our happy, well-cared for pups and a clean house. We have already rebooked her for a big trip next year and recommended her to our neighbors. If she's free, book her!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I grew up with a variety of pets, including several breeds of dogs—especially golden retrievers—along with Siamese cats, parakeets, fish, rabbits, chickens, and even a chinchilla. As a child, I helped raise and care for litters of puppies when our family bred our two female golden retrievers, giving me early hands-on experience with newborn and young dogs. I am also no stranger to farm animals as well such as cows,pigs,chickens,geese and turkeys. Over the years, I’ve also owned three cats of my own, each with their own personality and needs. Most recently, I’ve spent the past year as a very proud goldendoodle mom to our sweet and spoiled Scooby Doo. My lifelong experience with so many different animals has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to read and respond to each pet’s unique temperament. Whether your furry (or feathered!) family member needs playtime, snuggles, walks, or just a calm and caring presence, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away or just checking in on them! Also I figured I might add that I know how to administer topical and oral medication if need to be and I have always vaccinated my own animals at home so I also know how to administer by needle if there is anything special I need to know about your pet. I work a full-time job morning shift Monday–Friday the hours are 6am to 2pm,Weekends are wide open and super flexible, which means plenty of time for walks, play, snuggles, and visits! Can do more mornings,afternoon or evening times on weekends except my end time is 9pm for Sundays cause of my work schedule. As I stated before if something comes up where you need something don't hesitate to ask me. I can always see if something can be worked out. If your pet has a specific routine or needs special timing, no worries—just let me know! I’m always happy to plan ahead and figure out what works best. Whether it’s drop-ins, evening hangs, or arranging a stay at our home, we can make it happen so your pet feels loved and cared for. Safety, Trust & Environment My family and I currently rent a cozy three-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom townhome with a back patio area and an open backyard. This space is where we take our dog for bathroom breaks, walks, and some outdoor play. Because the yard is not fenced, all pets are taken outside on a leash at all times for their safety. Pets that are fully house-trained or crate-trained are welcome to stay with us when needed. We also have a one-year-old goldendoodle who is very friendly and loves meeting new dogs. For any pet staying in our home, I always recommend a meet-and-greet so everyone—both animals and humans—can get comfortable and ensure a safe, positive interaction. Safety is always my top priority for every pet involved. For pets staying with us, a collar and leash are required for bathroom breaks and walks. Playtime will mostly take place indoors unless your pet enjoys and feels comfortable playing outside—I'm always happy to accommodate their preferences while keeping them safe. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I treat them with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine always come first. I also will send updates such as photos of videos of you pet or pets while in my care so you know how your fur baby or fur babies are doing at all times.

About: I have had multiple experiences dog and cat sitting over the last 5 years. Both with younger and older pets. I have done check-ins and overnight stays to ensure the wellbeing of the animal/pet being looked after. I also have lived with 2 young dogs for the last few months, and before that with older dogs as well. I currently work on a farm so from 6:30am-8am in the morning and then 5pm-8pm in the evenings. Other than that my schedule is very open. Additionally there is flexibility in those hours if needed. I treat animals with respect and care. Showing them love in the same way their owners would. I take my time making sure their needs are looked after in each visit, along with spending time with them as needed as well.

About: I graduated with my Bachelors of Animal Science and have been around animals my whole life. I worked at a pet spa and resort in high school taking care of dogs and cats, I've worked at two zoos taking care of exotic animals, and I have dog and cat sat for friends and family. I am currently a teacher and will have my summers off so I can care for your pet at any time! Currently I am a teacher and have my summers off. I will be available anytime to watch your pet. I love to stay active so walking your pet will not be a problem! I currently have a leopard gecko named Remi. She is very low maintenance but I love to get her out and let her wander around for enrichment and exercise. Working at Zoos and having lots of experience caring for animals I truly believe that enrichment and exercise are so important for an animals health and well-being.

About: I have house / dog/ and cat sit for neighbors and friends for many years and am looking forward to meet you and your pets!! Available briefing in mornings but mainly in afternoons, evenings to check on whatever needed and am always near Wooster for anything that may come up. I have watched several houses/ pets over the years and am always very conscientious about when arriving to homes/ leaving for safety, security and keeping a close eye on pets.

“Gabrielle was great with communication. Bruce and Dori were as relaxed as ever when I got home which means they had a good experience with Gabrielle as well. I will definitely try and book her again next time I travel.”

About: I love all animals, but I truly believe a home just isnt a home without a dog...or several. :) I only have one of my own now. My Precious is an Australian Shepherd mix. She rescued me 8 years ago.☺️ Now, she is my copilot as we embark on a nomadic adventure across the US. We both look forward to meeting other dogs and their families along our journey.🐾 I am not a dog trainer, however, I have been working with Precious using Cesar Milan's methods of dog psychology. Any specific questions, concerns, special routines, anything your dog needs to feel comfortable, I am happy to do all I can to accommodate. Feel free to contact me with any questions you might have. We look forward to meeting you! I'm setting out on a nomadic adventure across the US with my furry copilot, Precious. We hope to meet other dog lovers along our journey.☺️ I will care for your pets as I would my own. Making sure to fulfill their basic needs of Exercise, Discipline, and Affection, and going over and above to make sure your pets enjoy their own little staycation while you enjoy yours.

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old, so you could say it's in my blood. Over the years, I've learned so much about their different personalities and needs. One of the most special dogs in my life was my own, who lived to the incredible age of 18. He was a constant companion and taught me so much about loyalty and love. That experience really shaped my approach to dog care, making me extra attentive and dedicated to their well-being. I also have experience with cats and rabbits as well. I usually work my other job in the mornings, but I can be flexible to fit your schedule. Let me know what times work best for you, and I'll do my best to accommodate! Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I always make sure they have a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I follow their regular feeding and exercise routines, and I'm always attentive to their individual needs and quirks. Lots of playtime, cuddles, and positive reinforcement are definitely part of the deal!

“Ashlyn was excellent with our 3 dogs and our house! 2 big, rambunctious dogs and a small breed with a big personality! She took great care giving one dog meds, walking, playing, feeding, etc. We will definitely book again. Our dogs were looking for her even when we got home. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been around animals my entire life, and I truly have a passion for caring for them! I have pet sat my friends and family's dogs and cats overnight as well as simple potty breaks or walks. I have experience working with horses so I am a very patient person and I am good with all different mannered dogs. Additionally, I currently work at a farm so I am gaining experience with a wide variety of animals each shift! Currently I am a full-time student but I work Rover into my daily schedule! My priority will always be providing top care for your pet. When in a clients home I make sure to care for their home just like I would mine. I keep the home clean and make sure that everything is just as it was when the client left it. You can be sure that your pet will be in a safe and happy environment.

“Cassidy took care of my 7 cats while i was on vacation for 2 weeks always took pics and updated me everyday! Great Job ! Thanks Cassidy for no worries!”

About: I truly care as if the dog were my own. I make sure they get play time and petting in addition to the basic necessities. I work FT M-F and my schedule is somewhat flexible depending on the situation. Weekends are very flexible - as long as I don’t have a prior commitment. I care for pets in your home that way your dog is most comfortable with his or her surroundings. I will try and keep them as close to their current routine as possible.

“Cassandra was fantastic and the dogs loved her. We had complete peace of mind that she was taking great care of our fur babies. We would highly recommend her.”

“Michelle watched our babies during our wedding weekend! She was amazing and we were able to relax and really enjoy our wedding without worrying about our babies. We also have a dog with reactive issues and she was great with her. We highly recommend Michelle and our dogs love her!”

Morgan M.

“I quite literally could not say enough wonderful things about my experience using Kristen to housesit for me and my fur babies while I was out of town. I am so particular about who I let watch them when I am gone and she exceeded ALL expectations.”

“Han did a wonderful job! So happy we found them! Our furry family was well taken care of, and so was our home. Looking forward to working with them again in the future!”

“My dog was cared for well and Diamond was so nice catering to his neediness when I am away. My house was also well cared for.”

“Sarah and her 6 year old daughter took wonderful care of my high energy dog, Penny, and two cats, Sully and Oliver at our home! She sent many photos throughout the 4 days which reassured us that our fur babies were content and well cared for. She followed all our instructions for special feeding and medication. She gave Penny plenty of exercise and even sent some super fun videos of them playing chase with Penny, her favorite game. Penny got finicky on a walk so Sarah carried her home quite a distance. (She’s 25 lbs so this wasn’t easy!) She scooped the litter and the yard, brought in our garbage cans and mail, left the house just the way she found it. All our pets were as normal as could be when we got home which is a great sign of a successful pet sitting experience. Overall a great experience and we’ll definitely be reaching out again for our next trip!”

About: I’ve grown up living with cats and dogs my whole life. I enjoy taking care of my own cats and would love to help others out by offering the same kind of exceptional care to their animals. I also have experience with some exotics. I work 9-5 so I am able to help care in the morning and evening time. I can offer plenty of play and pets during these hours of the day. I am attentive to what a pet might need in the moment by looking at body language and context of whether they may need food, outside, or attention.
