House Sitting in Shoreland

“Julia took the best care of Khloe, our aging lab. She left our home, just the way she found it. We will definitely call on her again when we are going out of town. Couldn't be happier with her.”

“Alex has stopped by to feed/play with our older two boys and spent a weekend with our not-yet-13-week-old puppy. We cannot thank her enough for her communication and obvious love for pets.”

“Katrina did an awesome job with 3 dogs and a cat. 1 of our dogs is very very nervous and scared but she was patient, Talked kindly to him and he even allowed her to pick him up. It was a great experience.”

About: I’ve owned and cared for my own dogs for over 25 years, all of them rescues. I have a deep love for animals and a soft spot for those in need. My pets have always been part of the family, and I’m known for spoiling them with love, attention, and treats (within reason!). I’ve nursed several of my dogs through illnesses, always going the extra mile to make them feel safe and cared for. I bring that same level of compassion and commitment to every pet I look after. I’m recently retired after 31 wonderful years with Chardon Local Schools, and now I have the time and flexibility to focus on something I truly enjoy — caring for animals. I’m home most of the day, which means your pets will get plenty of attention, companionship, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just relaxing company, I’m here to make sure your pets feel loved and comfortable while you’re away. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether I’m stopping by for a drop-in visit or taking your dog for a walk, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs. I follow your instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and always make sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life everything from a loyal German Shepherd to an energetic Lab, a playful Pit Bull, and even a Basenji. I’ve always connected especially well with larger, high energy dogs, and I genuinely love going on long walks with them. Whether it’s a calm drop-in or an active adventure, I tailor the care to your dog’s needs. I’ve helped care for pets through drop-in visits, walks, and extended in-home stays. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, responsive, and always keep you in the loop with photos and updates. If your dog needs exercise, attention, or just a friendly face while you’re away I’ve got you covered! I currently have a full time job and the time varies when I have my shift. Typically I work earlier in the morning so I would have plenty of time to walk and check up on your dog after I am done with my shift. If I do have a later shift in the day I am a morning person so I would be more than happy to also do the same with walking or checking up early in the morning. I am very good with dogs in the home and do not get easily frightened with any dog if they are a little hostile. I would not be able to do anything at my own home but rest assured anything with your own home I will take great care of your dog in the home.

“Shawntel was so amazing and made me feel so comfortable leaving my baby. She sent pictures multiple times a day with updates & made sure everything was neat and tidy when I got home. 10/10”

“This was first time I’ve used Rover . It was a last minute request for a sitter and it couldn’t have worked out any better . Taylor was amazing!! Taylor gets 10 stars . Very very satisfied. She kept me updated w pics of Ruby during my night out which was comforting and helped me enjoy my time without being preoccupied by worrying about using Rover for the first time & having a new sitter w my baby .”

“Absolutely Amazing!! Will definitely only be hiring her again to watch ANY AND ALL of my dogs when we need any sort of care. She was extremely thorough. I have a senior dog, a “special needs dog”- epileptic but young and playful, AND A a dog under two years old. They are well mannered but we have a care routine that she followed so thoroughly that made me relaxed as a worried pet mom. Thank you so much!!”

“Kala watched my two GSDs and sent videos and kept me very updated. I’ve never left them with anyone before so this was all new for me. She did great and will definitely book her again.”

About: I’ve taken care many dogs. I’ve had to admister meds, give insulin shots. I’ve dog walked and take care of multi dog households. I grew up with animals and packs of dogs. I work full time and can do drop in visits between cleaning houses. I can stay overnight and care in the morning. Weekends are pretty open. I can crate, do any special requests you may have. I can walk in a leash or anything else you want done. I will make sure they are safe.

About: We have had animals ever since I was a kid!! We have dogs, cats, ferrets, and hamsters!! If you need any additional animals taken care I am sure it will not be an issue. I work nights so if you need over nights I can do Sunday into Monday or Monday into Tuesday or both. My one dog has seizures so I'm used to giving him medicine and calming him down when it happens. I work nights so I'm free during the day all week long. Unfortunately for overnights it would be Sunday into Monday, Monday into Tuesday or both! Since we have dogs and cats I would prefer to come to you guys! We have a fenced in yard so I'm used to invisible fences but I would be more than happy to sit outside with your pets!

About: Any time a friend or a neighbor goes out of town or needs help, I'm the first one they call. I love spending time with animals and making sure they are happy, healthy and their needs are met! I love working with all ages. I’ve been around dogs and cats for pretty much my whole life. But I have a love for all animals! I know it can sometimes be hard to leave your furry loved ones with a stranger, but I can promise you I will treat them like my own! They’re in good hands(: I'm currently working a 9-5, but looking for something to keep me busy before and after work! (and weekends when I'm off work as well) I'm very passionate about working with animals I’m super flexible with everything so if you have any concerns, reach out to me and I’m sure we can figure it out! I have two friendly cats who love to play and get along with all animals! They also don't mind hanging out in the basement if need be. I've got a large area indoors and outdoors to keep your pet busy or they can relax on the couch!

“Alex was an excellent house and dog sitter! He was available last minute, as we had flights booked for the next morning, and made time to come and meet our dogs right away. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home. Alex went beyond our expectations and we are looking forward to using him in the future.”

About: I have loved and taken care of dogs for years. I am a Dog lover for sure. I have dog sat for family members many times. Retired so I have all day to care for your pets. I am here to give potty breaks as needed and lots and lots of attention. I have a fenced in yard. I have two small dogs that love to play. I live in a small neighborhood with no traffic or noise.

About: I’ve cared for all types of animals throughout my life - birds, horses, cows, snakes, pigs, sheep, and of course dogs and cats as well. There is a mix of caring for them professionally for pay and volunteering, as well as my own pets. I have always had a connection with and love for animals! I have open availability for pet care as we have our own we must be available for throughout the day. I am not currently working otherwise to focus on our house and would be thrilled to do pet care in the meantime. My husband and I have 2 sons at home, 9 and 15, as well as 5 pets - a small snake in a large, secure tank, 2 wonderful and loving cats and 2 energetic dogs. I do not work currently as I’m working on our home, so I would be available for constant care. I’m currently putting a fence up in our backyard, but behind our house is a dog park we bring our dogs to daily to exercise. All of our pets are friendly and excitable around others! We also cook our dogs food at home and would be happy to do so for our new friends.

About: I have taken in many strays since I was young and have cared for them until they found a loving home. I have three dogs who love to exercise, go for walks, and lounge around while cuddling. If you let me, I would love to do the same for your loved one! I am looking to care as much as I can while I am in PA school. I plan to continue when I graduate to give myself a break from real people. I love all fur babies! As a PA student my rotations change monthly and we get randoms days off. If i can fill my time with caring for your baby with no distraction I will. I have fenced in yard for fur babies to roam around, I also have two dogs that can keep them company but can be crated if needed.

“Alisa did a fantastic job house sitting our two dogs over the week of Christmas, and was very understanding and flexible when a family emergency require us to extend our time away. We were worried how our Irish Wolfhound who's skiddish with strangers would do, but Alisa handled him amazingly and put our concerns to rest. She even had the house looking like we never left and washed the bedding and dirty towels (from muddy dogs) before she left.”

“Joe watched our dog for nearly a month, coming several times a day, and also helped look after a few things around our home. Recommended”
