Dog Boarding in Riverbend, Youngstown, OH

“Maya was amazing with Gojo! Sent updates everyday with photos, took him for walks, gave him all the attention he could ask for (if you know Gojo, that’s a lot of attention), and truly welcomed him into their home. Gojo was happy to see me on pickup but sad to go as well. Will definitely recommend Maya and will be bringing Gojo back in the future to play with Thor!”

“Amanda and her kids were very attentive to my dogs needs and took really great care of them. Amanda always responded when I messaged her about the dogs and sent me pics of their stay. I know my dogs can be alot to handle and I truly commend Amanda for taking care of my two dogs ontop of taking care of her 3 children! I was very pleased with how everything went. One of her children even sent my dogs home with a toy that was handmade for him! I highly recommend Amanda to sit your dogs they will be well taken care of!”

“We couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible care our dog received! From the very beginning, our sitter was accommodating and flexible with our ever changing schedule, which gave us such peace of mind. She was also completely upfront and honest about everything communication was clear, consistent, and so appreciated. We had daily picture and video updates thay put our mind at ease. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely cares, and it was obvious our dog was in loving, responsible hands the whole time. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to care for their furry family member! Would definitely rebook for future outings. Thank you Athena for going above and beyond.”

About: I have a flexible schedule and work per diem in healthcare, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and love. I offer regular walks, playtime, and lots of affection to make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away. During our time together, I can also teach basic tricks like sit, paw, roll over, and lay down—keeping things fun and mentally stimulating. Pets are welcome to relax wherever they feel most comfortable, including the couches and beds. My home is smoke-free, peaceful, and full of love. I truly go the extra mile to make every pet feel like part of the family. Pet care is one of the most meaningful and fulfilling parts of my week. I work per diem in healthcare, which means I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time to caring for animals. I structure my week around the needs of the pets I’m caring for—whether that means morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or overnight stays. Making sure pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily routine. When pets are in my care, their comfort and safety come first. I create a calm, clean, and smoke-free environment where pets are free to relax, snuggle, and feel right at home. I take time to get to know their routines, preferences, and energy levels—whether they love to play or prefer quiet companionship. In my home, pets are allowed on furniture and beds if that’s what they’re used to, and I follow any feeding, medication, or behavior routines closely. In a client’s home, I always treat the space with respect and care, keeping pets on their usual schedule to reduce stress while you’re away. I believe in clear communication and always send updates, photos, and messages so you feel connected and reassured.

“Very responsive and sent many pictures of the dogs. Ares, being a large puppy, is a lot, but Jeanne was so kind to take him in and watch my pups. I would recommend her as a dog sitter to anyone in the area and would book again with her if needed!”

Heather H.

“I am so grateful that I trusted Nicolle to watch after my six month old puppy. Nicolle was very attentive, sent pictures and kept me updated while I was away. I appreciate everything her and her family has done to help my puppy, and would be happy to have her again in the future for pet sitting. Thank you so much Nicolle!!!”

About: I have cared for pets as a very young child. I have always had at least 3 or 4 pets in my home. I am educated in dog training, grooming, and worked many years along side a Veterinarian. I always helped My neighbors with their pets as well when they needed a sitter. I am a true animal lover and they are cared for as family members. I am devoting all my time to pet sitting dog walking, grooming etc So i am available any days and hours. This is my primary job so I am very flexible. I have a fenced in yard if needed to care for my clients pets. I have a doggie daycare on my lower level of my home where pets will be cared for loved and have plenty of playtime. I also have a small grooming station if this was requested. If crates are needed i can provide this as well.

About: With a passion for dogs that runs deep, I have hands-on experience training my Belgian Malinois, Eddie, for IGP and my Doberman, Moses, for basic house manners and obedience. Our adventures often lead us to hiking trails, where we bond, have fun, and enjoy the great outdoors together. My love for dogs has been a constant throughout my life, shaping my experiences and creating cherished memories with many dogs. As a dog sitter, my deep love for dogs has always been a significant part of my life. I enjoy dog sitting from my home because I work from home with a highly flexible job, enabling me to monitor the dog closely and provide constant care and attention. While dog sitting, I prioritize personalized care for each pet. With a fenced yard, dogs can enjoy outdoor play while being monitored by me or lounge inside, whether they prefer energetic activities or simply lounging on the couch. During dog sitting, I ensure clients stay updated with regular picture, video and text updates, keeping them informed and reassured about their dogs well-being. Clients can reach me anytime via phone or text while their dogs are in my care, providing peace of mind and quick communication for any updates or concerns.

“I don't have to worry if my dog is okay while Im gone. I know she is in the best hands and is well taken care of and loved. Thank you for joining my girls family.”
