5 Stars , Absolutely phenomenal pet sitter! We’ll definitely be booking her again if possible! Amber will treat your animals with love and help take the stress off from you AND your pet. We had Amber do two drop-in visits per day for 2 days, and she was outstanding in every way. From the very beginning, she was quick with responses, incredibly flexible, accommodating a last minute booking and even adjusting the schedule by several hours on the first day when our departure got delayed with her schedule and flexibility luckily coming through again for us. She made the whole process stress free. She was wonderful with our dog Hazel. The updates she sent through the Rover app were some of the best and reassuring. She included exactly when Hazel went on bathroom breaks during walks, how much she ate and drank, and how she was doing overall. When we got home, Hazel was so comfortable and happy that she was sprawled upside down on the bed in the bedroom and didn’t even hear me calling her loudly from the other room, that’s how relaxed and well cared for she was! Amber took Hazel on multiple walks each visit, made sure she was fed and watered, and clearly gave her lots of love and attention. We felt completely at ease leaving our girl in her care and trusted her 100%. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Thank you so much, we can’t wait to book with her again in the future!

Galianna did a great job watching and caring for our pups! We all enjoyed getting updates and pics from the visits. It was nice seeing them get so pampered and loved on while we were away. Galianna is very trustworthy and kept up with excellent communication the entire trip! I would absolutely hire her again in the future and feel our dogs would be very happy to see her again!

Katie was amazing! We hired Katie to do drop-in visits with our pup while we were out of town for the weekend, and she took such great care of her. She gave wonderful updates and made us feel comfortable about being away. Would definitely hire her again!

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover based in the Akron/Cuyahoga Falls area. I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all personalities and understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently have pets of my own, so I’m very familiar with feeding routines, litter/cleanup, playtime, medication schedules, and giving animals patience and attention. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you can feel at ease while you’re away from home. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available for drop-ins, house sitting, and pet care throughout the week. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, cuddly, or independent, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 It fits in perfectly! I am currently doing mostly freelance work right now so this type of flexible schedule is just the right fit for me! I will provide extra toys, lots of love and snuggles, and I am open to discussing providing more if that is of interest to you!

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!

About: Hello! I have had a love for pets my whole life! Starting when I was 12 I started checking in on my neighbors and family members animals. Weather that be walking them, feeding them, staying the night with them, or just loving them! I am just graduating high school. I currently have no job which means I can put my full attention and energy into watching your pet! I am free weekdays and weekends! I always make sure that my animals needs are taken care of first! I take them on nice long walks and play with them and give them as much attention as possible! I make sure to let them out every few hours depending on how big or small!

About: I grew up around dogs, cats, and horses, so caring for animals has always been part of my life. From a young age, I was expected to help take care of them and learn what they needed—whether that was energetic puppies and kittens or older animals who needed a little extra patience and care. Over the years, I’ve had a lot of hands-on experience. I’ve cat sat for cats with disabilities and learned how to adjust care to meet their specific needs. I also volunteered at the Animal Protective League and One of a Kind Pets as a cat cuddler, where I helped socialize shelter cats and build trust with them so they’d be more comfortable around people and ready for adoption. I also spent time walking dogs at the shelter and giving them attention and consistency. While living in Akron, I regularly watched a family’s senior dachshunds—very needy little dogs that required a lot of patience, routine, and love. I’m very comfortable caring for senior pets and understand how important it is to go at their pace and pay attention to the little things. Overall, I’ve always had a genuine love for animals. Caring for them has never felt like a job to me—it’s something I naturally enjoy and take pride in. I’m a teacher, so my schedule opens up a lot more in the summer, which gives me great flexibility for pet care. During the school year and summer, I’m available for evening walks or drop/ check-ins after 4pm Monday through Friday. Saturdays are mostly wide open for me, and I’m also available on Sundays. Look below for a schedule breakdown! In the summer, I have even more availability and can typically do morning, afternoon, or evening visits any day of the week (Sun–Sat), depending on the week. I’m also open to overnight stays when needed. I do have a few pre-planned trips coming up this summer: June 19–26th July 3rd July 16–27th Latest schedule until June 5th: Monday-Friday: 3-11pm drop-ins (dogs or cat) & dog walking Saturday-Sunday: SAME DAY BOOKING POSSIBLE for all day drop-ins (dogs or cats) & dog walking *unless specified for that particular weekend, might need at least 1 day noticing** I live in an apartment, so I’m not able to host pets in my home (no boarding). However, I’m more than happy and fully comfortable caring for pets in your home where they feel safest and most at ease in their own environment. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with respect and make sure your pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, or just giving them companionship and attention. I always aim to keep things calm, consistent, and stress-free for your pet, especially since being in their own space helps them feel secure.

We had the best experience with Maria! She watched our cat for us for 1 week while we were out of town & it could not have gone any better. She dropped by twice a day, gave our cat plenty of love & affection, & sent us lots of pics & updates while we were away which we appreciated so much. Our cat can be very shy but she warmed up to Maria almost instantly & we knew she was in the best care while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Maria again & would recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their furry friend :)

About: I have 6 years of hands-on experience walking and handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I worked as a veterinary assistant for 1.5 years caring for dogs and cats. Prior to this I spent 3 years at a shelter specializing in abused pit bulls. I’m comfortable with high-energy, strong, and rescue dogs, and I also have work experience as a kennel technician caring for cats. Whatever their personality type or energy level, my goal is to make your pets feel safe, understood, and cared for like they’re my own. Im currently in the processing of completing a 10 week pet grooming course that i attend Mon-Fri, 9-4. So, I will be available for house sitting on weekdays, 5 pm to 7:30 am. I can house sit and provide constant care on the weekends if needed. I can walk dogs or do check-ins any day of the week, however Mon-Fri i am only available in the early morning and also after 5pm. I will keep your pets' home environment, clean, safe and calm. For kitties, I can clean litter boxes, follow specific feeding/play routine or simply just be a calm caring presence. For dogs, I can also follow any feeding or enrichment routines you may have, nothing is too elaborate or complex! I have much experience caring for animals in need of highly specific care. I live an active lifestyle so i will have no problem wearing out your puppy or higher energy dog! I can do brisk walks or even runs. I also have a special place in my heart for older pups. I pay especially close attention if a dog is elderly or arthritic. I will never make them feel rushed or forced and I will let them set the pace for the day, depending on their mood and energy level.

About: I’ve always grown up around animals, from being raised on a farm surrounded by cows to caring for pets of my own. I’m currently the proud owner of two sweet Shih Tzu mixes, Memo and Santi, along with a dwarf bunny named Melody. I also have experience caring for reptiles and amphibians, and I’m completely comfortable handling feeding routines , even the bugs! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll always care for your animals with the same love, attention, and patience that I give my own. Here’s a cleaned-up, more professional version of your routine bio: I am a recent college graduate currently with a flexible schedule while I transition into my career as an industrial designer. During my time as a full-time student, I developed strong time management and responsibility skills, and I am now using this period to focus on gaining experience and building my professional path. Because I am currently in the job search process, I have open availability and am able to accommodate a variety of scheduling needs, including weekdays and weekends. For my two little dogs, Santi and Memo, they spend a lot of time cuddling with me. Memo is very curious and will literally follow me everywhere I go, while Santi loves coming along with me for car rides. They both have a lot of fun playing outside, and during potty breaks they like to wander and play around the yard. I will admit my dogs are pretty spoiled ,Santi especially loves when I buy her cute dresses and she gets so excited for a good game of dress-up. My little bunny, Melody, is on what I like to call a “rainbow diet,” meaning she gets a variety of nutritious vegetables. She also really enjoys car rides and loves when I give her a small banana treat. I keep a very consistent and timely routine when it comes to her cage maintenance to make sure she stays clean, comfortable, and happy.

Taylor was so great with my Cleo! She was available on short notice and was willing to meet us prior to going away for a few days. I was really worried how Cleo would react, he is an older dog and protective, but she handled him so very well! Thank so much Taylor! I will be reaching out again!

About: Hi my name is Maria Dissinger I’ve been in the dog business for the past 10 years . I’ve always had a passion and a true dream to be able to work with them . I recently within the past 4 years have also started working alongside my fiancé as we both have a passion and love for animals . We have fur babies of our own and we know how important it is to trust someone with them and we would love to be that family for you! We are a family who loves taking care for pets it’s not just a regular job for us but it’s something we love . We’ve had plenty of different experiences from dogs to cats to bunnies and lizards . We’ve had extra big and super small . We’ve dealt with different temperaments from shy and energetic and affectionate or independent . Pretty much every type! Our schedules are very flexible, and we understand the importance of providing one-on-one attention and individualized care. Whether you have one pet or several, we take the time to get to know each animal’s unique personality, quirks, and routines. For us, every tail wag and purr is a gift, and we treat every pet as if they were our own. One of us works full time, however the other stays at home and focuses on animals and etc. We’re always able to be flexible and accommodate everyone’s needs We always make sure to meet prior to bookings and if needed or wanted to I do like to send pictures and videos of your fur babies while in my care. I know everyone misses their little babies.

About: I have taken care of the pets for family and friends for years, with many over night stays with them. Animals tend to be drawn to me and I can never get enough of the unconditional love that they provide! I am great with requests for the special care of your special furry family members! I work at a school, so we are currently in summer and I am off of work at 2 ever day of the week, but also available at night for any possible over night needs! I will not be taking animals to my home, as I have a roommate who has cats and they do not do well with other animals.

About: I am a caring and dependable dog walker with a genuine love and respect for animals. I currently walk two dogs Tuesday through Friday and have built a strong bond with them. One was shy and barked at me at first, but now happily runs up to greet me—an experience I truly value. I also volunteer at the Humane Society animal shelter, where I help feed cats, clean their cages, and walk dogs. At times, my responsible and gentle 14-year-old son assists me on walks, offering extra attention and care to the dogs. As a tutor and substitute teacher with a flexible schedule and summers off, I’m able to provide consistent, reliable care. My priority is making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My flexible schedule as a tutor and substitute teacher allows me free time to do pet sitting and dog walking. I tend to walk dogs between 8am to 11am and then do my substitute teaching job between 11:45 to 3:15pm and after that will walk a dog as needed. During the summer time Im free all day for walks and for house sitting. If a dog is staying with me, I make sure I know the dog whereabouts at all times. I make sure my floors are clean and free of anything that may potentially be toxic or harmful to dogs. I make sure to follow any instructions or recommendations from the client concerning the well being of their pet.
