Dog Sitting Shaker Heights

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. From daily feedings and cleaning to exercise, play, and routine check-ins, I’ve been trusted by family, friends, and neighbors to care for a wide variety of pets with different needs and temperaments. Growing up around both household and farm animals taught me responsibility, consistency, and how to read animal behavior across species. I take a calm, attentive approach and always prioritize safety, routine, and genuine care, treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to be flexible depending on your pet’s needs and available anytime, especially during holidays. I prioritize consistency, timely visits, and making sure each pet gets quality attention rather than feeling rushed. I’m reliable with routines like feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I communicate clearly if anything ever changes. Whether your pet needs quick visits or longer companionship, I make sure they feel cared for and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely, respect your home, and maintain a calm, clean environment during every visit. I’m attentive to behavior changes, secure doors and gates, and take extra care with leashes, feeding routines, and medication instructions if needed. I treat every home and pet with the same level of responsibility and respect I would expect for my own.

“Brittany was wonderful! She was easy to communicate with and very responsive. She treated Astro and Cocoa with lots of love and playfulness, and sent lots of pictures! Highly recommended!”

“Courtney is the best! I had an unexpected emergency and she responded immediately and was able to start visits the next day. She is thorough in her updates, sends lots of pictures, and gives my cat all the love and pets he needs. I am so grateful for her help!”

“This was our first time using Rover and Alexis put us totally at ease leaving our cat in her care. Alexis was kind enough to stop by a few days before to meet us and our cat. Our skittish former-street cat took to her immediately, curled up with her, and Alexis was great at not only feeding her, but providing companionship a lnd many pets/scratches. She sent great Rover Cards and sweet photos. I would 100% use her again!!”

About: I am an experienced dog walker and pre-covid ran a successful in-home dog daycare for 5 years. I have experience working with breeds of all sizes, from your tiny papillon to your huge Great Dane. I’d love the opportunity to walk your dog and/or visit them at home for some social interaction during the day. If you have any questions, I’m here to answer them! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Since I work part-time, I have ample availability throughout the week, including weekends. This means I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine, whether you need regular dog walking or drop-in visits. I’m committed to providing reliable and convenient services to ensure your pets are well taken care of whenever you need assistance. When caring for your pet at your home, my priority is to create a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I’ll ensure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise while following their routine. For dog walking, I focus on providing an enjoyable and safe experience, adapting to your dog’s energy level and preferences. Whether it’s leisurely strolls or more vigorous adventures, I’m dedicated to keeping your furry friend happy and healthy. Regular updates and communication will keep you informed about how your pet is doing while you’re away.

“Erin was great! She was so good with the cats and very thoughtful. She was also very responsive with any questions or new instructions. We felt at ease leaving the cats and our home for her to take care of while we were away. Thank you Erin!”

“Marina came by to check in on my cats, feed them and clean their box while I was out of town. She communicated well, offered to meet beforehand and made sure she followed through with the procedure of taking care of my four cats. I hope to have her back when I’m out of town again, as she was very reliable.”

About: Does your dog like nature walks or is it more of a structured walk play type of animal? I can provide both. We can take long walks outdoors or we can find an area that is more city like and spend some time walking around. I have over 20 years experience caring for dogs. I have kids and treat my pets like my children they will be very loved. I have an open schedule I can work from 6am to at least 9 pm. I do not have a preference on the type of dog as I have owned from toy to giant and can handle them without any problems. We will play catch, run, and will provide obedience training at owners request.Will provide toys. DOES NOT PROVIDE CAT SERVICES HIGHLY ALLERGIC!!! I am currently self employed so I can provide all the love to your pups, right now I have a lot of love to give your baby. I do currently offer overnight services. If client wants dog to play in their personal yard I will follow the direction provided by the owner.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to Baker, our 5-year-old adopted coonhound. He’s such a big part of my life that he even inspired me to write and publish a children’s book about him, Learning to Count with Baker the Dog! Having Baker has given me years of firsthand experience with the responsibility, attention, patience, and love that go into caring for a dog. My husband and I also regularly help care for our sister-in-law’s two dogs when she’s away, sometimes having them stay with us for several days at a time. We also love helping our friends by watching their dogs in our home when they need a sitter. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet. Whether your dog is staying with me, needs a walk, or just needs some extra attention and company, I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I give Baker. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or other instructions you provide. I also understand that every dog has their own personality, and I’ll take the time to learn what makes yours feel comfortable and happy. You can expect dependable care, great communication, plenty of updates and photos, and lots of attention for your pup. I’d love to meet you and your dog and help give you peace of mind while you’re away! I work fully remote from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day and makes pet care fit very naturally into my routine. I’m able to be present for regular walks, potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day rather than leaving a dog alone for long stretches. Because my schedule is flexible, I can also adjust around each dog’s normal routine and specific needs. Whether your pup is staying with me, needs a daytime visit, or just benefits from some extra company and attention, I’m able to make their care a consistent part of my day. When caring for pets in my home, I do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and part of the family. Since I work remotely, I’m able to be home with them throughout much of the day for regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also make sure to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and will learn about their personality, preferences, and any special instructions before their stay. Because we have our own dog, Baker, I prefer to do a meet-and-greet before boarding whenever possible so we can make sure the dogs are comfortable together. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their home and their pet’s established routine. I’ll follow all instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any other care needs, while making sure their pet receives plenty of attention and companionship. For either type of care, communication is very important to me. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: My genuine passion for animals and my lifelong dream about having my own dogs finally came true when I welcomed my own pups into my family. I have firsthand experience with the daily care, attention and patience that pets need to thrive. My genuine passion for animals and my lifelong dream about having my own dogs finally came true when I welcomed my own pups into my family. Beyond caring for my own dogs, I volunteer with a local animal shelter for a “Dogs Day Out” program where I take shelter dogs on outside to provide socialization, exercise and enrichment. These experiences alone have strengthened my understanding of dogs with many personalities and needs, allowing me to provide compassionate, attentive, and reliable care for every pet I get to meet. :) I work in the emergency department, so my schedule varies, but my partner and I live together so generally when I am not home he is there, and vice versa. When I’m not at work, I will spend all my time with your pet, taking them on walks, to dog parks, to get pup cups, etc, whatever you as the owner allow or prefer! I have a fenced in yard at my home, so dogs can be off leash to exercise, use the potty, and play time. During their stay in my home, they are welcome to be free roaming, not in crates, unless owners would prefer crates.

Examples of the care I can provide: - walking - picking up 💩 - cuddling - playing - brushing - administrating medication - diet and allergies I provide additional petcare part-time, so I'm normally avaliable in the afternoon, evenings, or nights on Tues.,Wed.,Thurs.,Fri., and Sunday's evenings/nights. I make sure I feed my 8 cats and 1 dog twice daily and I prioritize socializing and cuddles with my cats and dog daily.

About: I’ve cared for animals of all kinds since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. I also have hands-on experience giving medications and vaccinations from my time working as a veterinary assistant. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets both inside and outside the home and have experience with boarding, dog walking, medication administration, and in-home visits for feeding and watering. Every animal I care for quickly becomes part of my extended family, and I truly enjoy every moment spent making them feel safe, loved, and spoiled. I currently work from home, giving me plenty of time to provide attention and companionship throughout the day. My schedule is flexible and is very convenient for those who may need a little extra attention. My fenced yard offers space to play, and my two friendly dogs are always ready to welcome a new friend. If needed, I can also easily crate your dog for comfort or routine.
