“Margot is great! We have an older dog who had some special needs and she just took them in stride. She really loves dogs and is very dedicated to taking care of them. She is very good at making sure that all of the dogs get along. My dog had a great experience and I had peace of mind that my dog was happy and cared for.”


“Charlie took great care of my 14 yo beagle for 5 nights. My beagle had recently had surgery and Charlie made sure he had his meds and followed post op instructions. Very happy with the care. He was a happy boy at pickup!”


“We are huge fans of Bo! Our dog Teddy is so happy and well taken care of when we pick him up! Bo always sends tons of pictures and updates that we absolutely love. Will definitely book again!”


“Angelica and Thomas took great care of our Roxie while we were on vacation. Roxie looked like she was having a great time and we received daily updates with photos. We would definitely book with them again!”


“Maritza took great care of my dog! She was flexible, and supportive, and had a lot of patience to deal with Frito who I just recently rescued from a shelter and is now re-learning how to be loved and cared for. She took care of him even when he had just recently gotten neutered and was in a recovery process. She even bathed Frito, even tho she didn’t have to, showcasing her caring and attentive nature. I’d definitely recommend her as the person to board your pet 🙏🫶”

I'm flexible, always go above and beyond, take initiative to ensure a clean, safe home, and your pet's well-being is my priority. My background check offers complete peace of mind. I provide personalized, undivided attention for your furry family member(s), focusing on one dog or a bonded pair at a time. Your dog will enjoy a structured yet loving environment with plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my flexible schedule.

Think of me as always ready to fit in a walk or check-in with a little heads-up! When it comes to your dog's well-being, their needs truly dictate my service.

“Alicia is very friendly and cares very much about animals. She is flexible and willing to work with you If you are in a pinch or last minute situation! Very satisfied with my Pet’s stay with her! Would definitely send him back to her!”


“Brianna did an awesome job boarding our dog. She provided daily updates and pics. Our dog came back happy and in great condition. This was our first time using Rover, and Brianna did a great job. Will definitely book again with her, and we would surely recommend her to anyone. Thank you!”


“THEY WERE SO AMAZING. Sent lot's of updates, photos, and videos. Even accommodated the fact that my flight was delayed causing me to miss my connection and was stuck in ATL overnight. Their dog is so playful and friendly which made my dog have the time of his life. They took amazing care of my dog and provided him with all his vitamins and any of his special needs were well monitored.”


“My elder chihuahua Missy, who is nearly blind, had her first overnight with Vivian and was very well cared for. Vivian made sure to ask me all about Missy's routines and likes, and I could tell she was very caring and gentle. Her home and family are relaxed and welcoming. Although Missy is used to being with other dogs, she does better in calmer settings, so this was a perfect atmosphere for her. Vivian sent me pictures and texts throughout the stay. Missy's regular sitter is moving away, so I had to find a new one for her, and I'm so glad I found Vivian. I will definitely have her care for Missy again.”

“We took a trip to South Padre Island and stayed at a condo that wasn’t pet friendly, so we found Alexis. She was great with our Bo. She sent daily pics of Bo, good mornings and good nights. We felt so comfortable because from the moment we were matched with her it was constant communication. The dropping off and picking up was quick and smooth. This was the first time Bo was left with a total stranger and he did very good, so that says a lot about how she cares about our pets. Thank you again, Alexis 💕”

“Melody and her partner were extremely accommodating and loving! Indigo enjoyed her stay. She was well taken care of and I received regular updates from Melody. 🫶🏼 I also booked very last minute and it wasn’t an issue for Melody at all. I highly recommend these wonderful caregivers!!!!!!”


“I needed someone I could trust with my precious and trusty companion--my 3 year old Pekingese, Peak. We live in LA and I visited Cleveland for my wedding. Tami picked Peak up after the ceremony (he was a groomsman) and took care of him for several days. Peak got along great with Tami's pups, even though one is about 8 times bigger than him. Tami is definitely a dog person and she knows what she is doing. Peak almost looked bummed to leave when I picked him up! If I ever need a dog sitter in Cleveland again, Tami will be the first person I contact!”


About: I love all dogs as if they were my own. I completely understand the responsibility of taking care of someone’s beloved pet due to the fact that I would want the best care possible for my pets! I have a very flexible and free schedule so taking care of a dog will be an easy task due to the amount of free time! I will of course make sure that the dog Im taking care of is safe at all times! On a leash when on a walk or going out to potty! And safely sleeping close to me at night.

About: I have grown up and gained experience around dogs of multiple ages and breeds from newborns to 12+. I have experience with administrating medicine to dogs and caring nursing puppies and supporting senior animals. I have two fur babies that are rescues, Sammie who is a mutt (4 yrs.) and Ally who is a chihuahua mix (1 yr.). I believe pets are part of our families and should be treated as such. I am currently in between jobs, so at the moment I am pretty much free! My schedule is M-F from 8am-5pm. Unless I am taking care of a pet inside my apartment. I have an apartment with two small dogs. I usually take them out on the leash in the courtyard multiple times a day so they get the exercise they need.
