House Sitting in Rock Creek

About: I’ve had dogs since my 20s. My black lab recently passed away and I’m not ready to get another dog so I figured I would dog walk to get my fix! I am always watching the neighbors dogs and cats. I do have experience with puppies and the elderly. My business is that of Massage Therapy and I am also certified in Canine Massage! I have also included a picture collage of my home so that you know what to expect to see when you come in at any time. I am currently working from home so I am flexible every day of the week. I do schedule myself plenty of breaks every day of the week. This way I can properly take care of your pet. I would take care of your pet just like my own! I spoil them and they will never go hungry no matter if they’re at my home or yours

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a kid. From my own pets, to family members' and neighbors' pets. I do have an AS degree in Animal Health and before college I was a dog groomer. I enjoy making furry friends. I am currently work remotely for myself. Therefore, I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pets. I am available anytime. When caring for your pets in your home, I will stick to their regular routines and schedules, while providing them some extra time and attention.

“Debbie did a great job sitting for my 9 year old Boxer in our camper while we laid my Mom’s ashes in Mentor Cemetary. We are from MT and he’s not used to this heat and humidity. I got her with a last minute request yesterday and she did wonderfully. Highly recommend.”

About: As a prior dog owner, I have a big soft spot for them and would love to help take care of them. No problem at all with playing the day away. With a big park and beach to explore my routine consists of enjoying the natural beauty of the neighborhood and learning about the pet owners in the area. I like to provide quality care when I see the needs arise. From claw trims to brushing I love seeing a happy & healthy pet!

About: I offer comprehensive pet care services backed by a lifetime of experience with diverse animals, from small rodents to large breeds like my Irish wolfhound. Having had cats since I was 10, I'm skilled in managing multiple pets, including reptiles like my tortoise and various birds. I'm comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and have a proven record of reliable pet-sitting, ensuring their animals are well-fed, cared for, and happy. As a pet sitter with a weekday job from 6:30 AM to 2:30 PM, I ensure your pets are well-cared for by providing a morning visit before work for feeding, fresh water, and a quick walk or playtime. During my workday, I can arrange a midday visit. After work, I dedicate my time to your pets, offering walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of cuddles. Weekends are fully devoted to providing extra care, including longer walks, park visits, and any specific grooming or playtime activities your pets enjoy. When caring for pets in a client's home, safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities. I begin by thoroughly understanding each pet's specific needs, routines, and any medical conditions. I ensure the home is pet-proofed and free of hazards, and I strictly adhere to the owner's instructions regarding feeding, medication, and exercise. Building trust involves gentle interactions, consistent routines, and positive reinforcement. For overnight stays, I maintain a calm and secure atmosphere, respecting the pet's usual sleeping arrangements and providing companionship. During dog walks, I use a secure leash, remain vigilant of the surroundings, and follow the owner's preferred walking routes and commands, always prioritizing the pets safety and well-being.

“Kayla is amazing! She took excellent care of my doggos, sent pictures every day, followed instructions to a tee. One of my doggos got sick from doggy daycare and she called me immediately, took them to the vet, gave them meds, and made arrangements for the dogs to be cared for while she worked. She is OUTSTANDING!!!!!!”

“She was amazing with my dogs! She loves them as much as they loved her. I will definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve been responsible for the care of pets most of my life. Pets are family to me. I love getting to know their individual personalities and supporting their needs. My routine varies daily and weekly. Weekends and evening are more open but, depending on the day and mommy schedule, I can sometimes be available during the day on week days. Overnight stays can be available for house-sitting if my 14 pound, male dog, Franklin, can accompany me; he is very friendly and attached to me. I will connect with you one-on-one about your pets individual needs and follow their schedule and routine as you identify me to do. I respect your space and guidelines.

“Kassi was outstanding with RosKoe. We had zero worries after meeting her, knowing we could attend our sons wedding without having to be concerned. Kassi sent pictures, kept us informed every day. I would recommend Kassi without hesitation. Super nice, professional, responsible and genuinely caring. Thank you again Kassi!”

“Anna was great! Very punctual and friendly to my dogs and cat. I was away for a week and I got constant updates on my babies throughout the day! I was able to enjoy my vacation fully because I knew my dogs and cat were in good hands!! Would book with Anna again 100%!!”

“Caleb has sat with Moxie a few times. She doesn’t like men but after getting to know him she is very excited to see him. He stays in my home and Moxie and my home are always very well cared for.”

About: Hi! I’m a responsible and loving pet sitter with a flexible schedule. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I have experience taking care of blind/deaf dogs from young to old and I treat every pet like family. Whether your pet needs playtime, a walk, or just company, I’m here to help! I'm in grad school and most of my classes are online or a few hours in the evening 1-2x a week. I have the freedom to hang out or drop in every few hours, whichever works best for your pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and maintaining the pet’s normal routine. I take time to understand each pet’s needs, habits, and personality to make sure they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I treat the home with the same respect I’d expect in return - following instructions closely, keeping things clean, and ensuring doors, gates, and feeding routines are handled properly. My goal is to make the transition as smooth as possible for both pets and their people.

“Kristen was the best! She took great care of my two pups. She was able to stay the night with them and cuddled them as her own. Will use again thanks kristen!!!”

About: I've always had dogs in my home even as a young child. I'm always the one called when a dog sitter is needed and I would have it no other way! I have taken many of my dogs to different types of trainings and obedience schools so don't be shocked if your dog learns a new trick at my home. I've also worked at a pet store with puppies and can give medications if needed. I have experience with all types of animals including reptiles and farm animals. I hope to one day start a rescue or sanctuary so rest assured your pet will be treated as my own if not better. I'm currently working part time and William is a stay at home dad so we just want to pet your dog all day everyday! Ok we'll also walk and play with them ☺️ William has also passed an enhanced background check as well and is my pup partner. He's also had and cared for animals all of his life. He loves all animals but has a soft spot for dogs and will snuggle your dog any chance he gets. One of us is always at home and will take the time to get to know your pet and what they need. We have low energy pets that sit on the couch all day and we have high energy pets that need constant stimulation. We will take walks, play with toys and snuggle whenever we can ☺️ We have just moved into our forever home in chardon and are working diligently to make our home a safe space for all of our fur friends! All animals eat separately. All animals are allowed on furniture unless you would prefer we don't let them. We have a heavy duty crate for crate trained pups but do allow you to bring your own if need be. Strong metal baby gates separate sections of our home to provide extra security. Please feel free to communicate any extra steps you may need us to take for your fur baby, we have plenty of space, time, love and patience to do whatever is needed. Safety is our top priority!

About: I pet sat a dog, puppy to senior for 3 years and walked her 7 years. I owned and took care of my cat for 15 years. Whenever possible, weekdays and/or weekends preferably afternoon time to evening! I am flexible to fit what’s available for my clients needs. Encouraged to help out anyway I can! During my childhood, my cat was an outdoor cat and we fed him according to schedule and health benefit to the cat. Accountability is important!

About: I am a mom of a 9 year old girl and 13 year old boy. I recently went and house/dog sat for a week. I cleaned the house, played with the dog and cat, fed the dog and cat, and of course there were lots and lots of cuddles. I do have to be able to bring my kids with me as I do no have an option to leave them somewhere. But i will treat your home and your animals as our own. I have always had cats and dogs, up until I had to put our last one down a year ago. I work around part time job Wednesday-friday. I am able to be there with them all other days. They will be left when I have to work but we will be there directly after. We would abide by any rules the dog or cat has. Feeding time would be the same (unless they are fed at 5 Wednesday-friday, then they will be fed a little late.) We are able to let them out, walk them play and snuggle.

About: I have taken care of many dogs and I am a very genuine and caring person. I just graduated college with my BA in Public Health.

“We were away for 7 days and this was our first time using Rover. Our animals seemed well cared for and our home was how we left it. She sent updates and photos, which we appreciated very much! We will use her services again for future trips.”

About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician. I have 2 dogs of my own as well as 3 cats and 6 horses. I am able to give medications if that is something your pets needs. I can feed, water, walk, clean litter boxes and give plenty of playtime and attention while you are gone for the day or out of town. I can care for your senior pets, your new kittens/puppies or those that fall in between. I will follow the instructions you have in place and will work to help keep your pet happy and safe while you're away. I do have experience working with the aggressive and unfriendly as well as the overly friendly pets. If you have pets outside of the "norm" like reptiles and livestock I can also help with them. I'm currently working part-time so I have pretty open availability. I work with pets as part of my job so I know how to handle a wide variety. At this time I currently don't offer in my house care. I have 2 dogs, one of which who is reactive to smaller dogs so this isn't something I will likely offer.
