“Sauddi was amazing with our sweet little Indie! You can tell that she absolutely cares for the dogs. She sent us wonderful pictures and videos, took Indie on trail walks and little adventures, and her communication was perfect! We will be a returning customer. Sauddi thank you so much for the loving care you gave her, and for taking our worries away during our wedding weekend.”

About: Since I work from home, I'm able to provide plenty of companionship, attention, supervision, and flexibility throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone nearby to provide care, playtime, and plenty of affection. My husband has been around dogs his entire life and has extensive experience raising and caring for them. Together, we're comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. We understand that every dog has unique needs and routines, and we're committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they can feel right at home. We're especially attentive to puppies who need patience, consistency, and frequent supervision, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra comfort, and additional care. Our goal is to treat every dog like part of our family and give them the individual attention they deserve. I currently work from home, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I can provide dedicated spaces for their bed, crate, feeding area, and food and supplies. Since I am home throughout the day, I can maintain consistent routines for feeding, walks, playtime, grooming, and cleaning. I also make sure the home is safe and comfortable for pets by keeping medications, chemicals, toxic foods and plants, and small objects out of reach. My pets are an important part of my household, and I am able to provide them with the attention, companionship, and care they need throughout the day. I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, and playtime, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re in my care. I’m happy to maintain their normal routines and provide plenty of exercise, play, affection, and one-on-one attention. I also understand that pets can feel anxious when their owners are away, so I provide a calm, patient environment and give them time to adjust.

She did a meet and greet and then sent updates every day that we were gone. I couldn’t be more happy! I felt that Libby was very well taken care of and we will definitely use Megan again. Thank you so much for everything!!!”

He loved staying there and all family members were great with him. She stayed in contact and sent pics, highly recommend her, I was able to relax knowing he was in great hands!!”

Let her sleep at the foot of her bed and get on furniture. She even got up at 4:45 am to take Ellie to potty. We will definitely use again!”

“Melissa was an amazing dog sitter! She was very flexible with our schedule and responded right away when I reached out looking for someone to watch Bruno. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she kept me updated with photos while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. Bruno also had a great time playing with her dog—they got along wonderfully! It was obvious he was well cared for and comfortable during his stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Melissa again, and she’ll definitely be one of my first choices the next time we need a dog sitter. Highly recommend!”

“We had a great experience with Lauren. She got right back to us when we needed a sitter right away. (My son brought his dog with him for a visit from out of town. She was a puppy and a big dog. Jordan is a Yorkie and was agitated due to the large dog who just wanted to play. ) We were able to take him over right away. She made him feel comfortable right away and sent us pictures during his visit to assure us he was doing well. I would highly recommend her for anyone who needs a sitter!”

“My dog is usually shy, easily scared, and slow to warm up to new people, so I was shocked at how quickly he bonded with Deanna during the meet and greet. We’ve used drop-in sitters before, but this was our first time trying boarding, and I immediately felt confident leaving him with her. Deanna introduced him to the other dogs in such a calm, skilled, and safe way, and her dogs were so gentle that my pup seemed to adjust much more easily than I expected. When I picked him up, he looked completely relaxed, as if we hadn’t been apart at all! Which made me so happy and relieved. I would absolutely book with Deanna again. Highly recommend!”

Pat is fantastic. Our dog loves going to Pats and spending time with her dog, Lexi. I never worry when Foxy stays there. Often you read about folks being out of town and their dog gets loose at the sitters-NOT with Pat's, no chance. Her yard is secure.

Sarah was wonderful with our super anxious pup and our complicated schedule. We were in Akron for a week (kid's sporting event) so didn't get to meet her before we dropped our dog off, but Sarah spent a lot of time trying to get to know our dynamics and needs over the phone. She was wonderful at "following the dog's lead" in the transition time and finding ways to calm her during the week including calming music, aromoatherapy and lots of treats. We enjoyed the videos (with her narration), photos and texts that she regularly sent and appreciated her transparency, communication, and hard work to ensure that our dog's stay and our comfort was her top priority. Thanks Sarah!

Caitlin was so great with my dog and made her feel at home for the weekend. Her care and attention to detail were obvious from our first meeting. She sent updates the entire weekend which gave me the peace of mind to enjoy a weekend away. Can’t recommend her enough and will be reaching out to her again!!

Shannon and TJ were a godsend when I needed help last minute! My dog made himself immediately right at home with them and I could see he was having a great time snuggling up with them in the photos I got. And Sophie was such a treat to get to meet too - I appreciate her sharing her parents with Auggie! 🤍
