“Lori was fantastic! We felt good leaving our 3 large dogs with her for a weekend in our home. She kept us updated and informed on their eating, potty, and medication schedule. We also came home to a clean house and the sheets where she slept were already washed. We absolutely recommend Lori!!”
“Sarah proved immediately she was going to be reliable and an excellent communicator. Our pup hit it off immediately with her and upon returning home, we could tell she had been left in great hands. We appreciate Sarah and will absolutely book with her again!”
“We had Teresa stay with our two corgis and husky over this weekend and everything was perfect! They were happy, she was incredibly responsive and sent pictures for us. We were at ease the whole weekend knowing they were in good hands. Thanks for taking such good care of them!”
“Kylie did great with my animals when I was away for the weekend. Both my dog and cat can be wary of new people, but she was patient with them and they warmed up to her. I’m sure they would be happy to have her here again!”
About: I've been around various breeds of dogs for as long as I can remember. During my time volunteering at Paws and Prayers Animal Rescue, I've handled as little as the Chihuahua to as large as the Great Dane! I am currently working part-time, so my schedule is typically pretty open most of the time. I am always open to meet your pups! Big and small! I have handled pups both big and small! Whatever challenge your dog throws at me, I can take it! I am able to crate dogs when necessary.
“We can't say enough about Nicole's caring service and communication throughout the 4 days she watched our dog. She arrived on time, took care of everything as specified (including plants), sent pics and videos, and left the house cleaner than when we left. We haven't hired anyone to watch our 60-lb lab mix before, as we just moved to Cuyahoga Falls and we don't have family here to pitch in to help with the pooch. We were squeamish about having a new person watch him, but Nicole put our minds at ease. I will definitely hire her again!”
About: I have been taking care of my own babies for 10+ years! I’ve also stayed for a week at a time taking care of family/friends fur babies I’m currently working part time and from home so I’m always available! From short walks to long stays! Even just popping in for a potty break My fur babies get the royal treatment! I will provide the same for yours! From belly rubs to playing catch. And all the cuddles needed!
“Anna was wonderful! She was very attentive to our dog's shy personality and quirks. She sent us daily updates and pictures throughout our trip. Our pup had such a great weekend with Anna!”
About: My senior dog passed away recently and I’m looking for pups to care for until I decide on my next fur baby. I am a hiker and constantly in the woods so if your dog likes walks, I’m your gal! I’m skilled in emergency care and can administer medications. I am a medical professional and my schedule is flexible. I’m willing and able to spend the extra time and love your doggos (but I’m not prejudiced to just dog love!) because all creatures deserve kindness and respect. I have experience dispensing medications and caring for animals with anxiety. Please consider asking me to care for your dog/cat, I will treat them as if they were my own. -Sam I am a remote worker and am able to spend ample time with your animal! Walks are typically 30 minutes minimum, unless otherwise requested. I hike daily and I’m always looking for a hiking companion. Your dog will be able to roam freely in my home (unless otherwise requested). If I’m away, I will likely crate your dog unless they are potty trained and have house manners.
“Jessi did an amazing job caring for our animals for almost 2 weeks! She initiated a meet and greet so she could meet our animals and go over instructions verbally (she even took notes ?). I can tell she took wonderful care of our furbabies as the were happy when we returned home and not mad at us, as we have experienced in the past. She accommodated us when we had vehicle trouble and needed to add more visits beyond our original booking end date. She did unexpected tidying up around our house which we viewed as a pleasant surprise!! I will seek Jessi out when I need to book care in the future ?. I would highly recommend her to care for your pets!!”
About: I have rescued two senior, nine year old, brother dogs in 2019, and they are absolutely thriving. I have also taken in a sixteen year old cat from my grandfather, and I currently live with three disabled cats. I am currently working on selling some things online, which means my schedule is completely flexible and lets me go out and take care of what I need to do, including taking care of pets! I quadruple check that all doors are closed, that there is plenty of water and food available, checking for any messes or hazards like yarn, magnets, reachable food containers, and I ALWAYS use a leash when necessary.
“Julie took great care of our two dogs and our cat while we were away on vacation. She communicated frequently and it was stress free experience for us. She stayed at our house while we were away and only left the dogs for a couple hours at a time. It was great! Julie is very trustworthy. We will work with her again and highly recommend!”
“I am so happy to have found Julia! She clicked immediately with my dog. She followed all of my instructions, but better than that, she treated my dog with loving care. She even washed up his dinner dishes! My cats were well taken care of as well. Julia will always be my go-to sitter.”
About: Hi! My name is Faith, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all types and temperaments. I currently have a high-energy husky of my own, so I fully understand the importance of daily exercise, mental stimulation, and structure—especially for active breeds. I also have experience working with dogs who have resource guarding tendencies and know how to approach them with patience and safety in mind. Growing up, I helped care for my family’s German Shepherd and cats. I’ve also provided ongoing care for elderly pets and cats with a wide range of personalities and needs. I frequently pet sit for friends and family in addition to working full-time as a school psychologist, and I treat every pet as if they were my own—with kindness, consistency, and attention to detail. Whether your pet needs a calm, gentle presence or a playmate who can keep up with their energy, I’m here to meet their unique needs. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and quirks so I can provide individualized care that gives you peace of mind. I currently work as a School Psychologist and I am away from home between the hours of 6:15 AM and 3:45PM on week days (Monday through Friday). I am open to pet sitting outside of those hours, and I have open weekend availability. Please schedule at least one week in advance for pet sitting. I will consider last minute booking requests, but my availability may be more limited. I currently do not offer boarding services because my personal dog battles with resource guarding behaviors and does not do well with other dogs. I am happy to pet sit for you in your home!
“Alex was the BEST!!! So flexible with the times and sent so many pictures. she was absolutely great and went above and beyond.. I would absolutely recommend her 10 out of 10”
“Samuel did awesome, he spent more time with the dogs than most sitters and he had a lot of flexibility around our schedule changes and last minute booking. He’s clearly got a lot of experience sitting because he asked about every detail of the dogs routine and had no issues taking care of them. He even sat with the dogs when they were nervous eating. We already booked another sitting with him.”

Brittani H.
“Brittani has been our go to dog sitter and walker on the side for some time now. We never have to worry when going out of town that our babies won’t be taken care of because they are with her. She has 2 of her own and when I saw how she was with her own dogs I knew Brittani was the perfect fit for us! If we are gone for longer than we would like for work or on the weekends she is available to swing bye and let them out or walk them. I HIGHLY recommend Brittani and will now be booking her through Rover!”

“I've had the pleasure of knowing Vanessa for years, and I can say without a doubt that any pet in her care is in incredibly good hands. She's responsible, attentive, and truly loves animals. Whether it's going the extra mile for a long walk, keeping pets engaged with playtime, or just offering calm companionship, she treats every dog (or cat!) like her own. If you're looking for someone reliable, caring, and communicative, Vanessa is the sitter you’ve been hoping to find. Your pets will feel safe, loved, and well cared for—and you’ll have peace of mind while you're away. I’d trust her with my own pets any day!”
