Top rated South Russell doggy day care sitters

“Brandon is terrific! He is a dog and human whisperer alike, putting us and our dog at ease. Cleo was able to relax and join the pack allowing us to breathe a sigh of relief. We will be using his boarding services again for sure.”


“My dog Maddie (and I) LOVE Taylor and family! Taylor is so attentive and cares about Maddie’s welling being. Always is willing to help. I ran into a time crunch and Taylor accommodated my needs. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”


“Susan was wonderful. This was Chase's first visit with her & she sent me photo & let me know he was adjusting well. House is immaculate & very doggie friendly. I'll never use a boarding facility!”


“Austin did an amazing job with my pup Otis during his stay with him. Otis was so excited to come over each day as Austin took great care of him. Otis struggles with separation anxiety, thus it placed a lot of stress off my shoulders whenever Austin took care of him. I would recommend Austin to anyone needing a pet sitter or walker!”


“Pogo had his very first day at daycare with Flora, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! He seemed so at home there as he dove right into the fun activities Flora had planned. It was such a joy to see him having an amazing time! The warm welcome we received was simply amazing. Flora really took the time to understand Pogo’s schedule, which made everything go so smoothly. Knowing he was in such great hands was incredibly reassuring. Flora was just a quick call or text away if we had any questions. As a sweet touch, she left us a handwritten note about Pogo’s day with her, which really put our minds at ease and showed us how much fun he had and the care she took of him. We can’t wait to book with Flora again in the future!”


“Great communicator and fantastic care! It was my first time using Rover.com, so was apprehensive. Needing care quickly, Ben made sure I had an opportunity to have an introduction prior to my care date, explained the process, showed me the environment and was willing to meet any special needs I may have with my girls. Great experience! And, even sent pics throughout the stay. It was clear my girls were happy and comfortable. Thank you Ben!”


“This was Susan's first time taking care of Coco and I could not have been happier. She sent many videos and photos to keep me apprised of Coco's progress throughout the day. Coco is learning how to interact with other dogs and was a little skittish with Susan's dog when we arrived and Susan was very patient. I felt like Susan treated Coco like she was her own and that gave me so much comfort. I am very pleased and will look forward to entrusting Susan with Coco's care in the future!”


“I've been booking him the last 2 weeks for 4 days a week plus an emergency day because my dog is super comfortable with him & after a long day I can tell he helps her get her idle energy out while I'm working. Not to mention the regular updates are appreciated, it truly gives me a peace of mind while at work. It's safe to say I'm gonna continue taking her he's a true dog lover like myself.”


About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and just recently raised a puppy of my own. He is a very well trained dog, so I have some fresh tips and tricks if needed. I am confident I will take wonderful care of any dog- any size and any age! New to rover but not new to taking care of dogs! I’m currently taking a summer break- I recently finished up a residency and pharmacy degree, so I am looking forward to having some time off this summer. I have a few trips planned, but otherwise I will be home every day to be able to provide the best care for your pups. I have a securely fenced in yard along with a young pup who just turned 1 years old. He is very friendly and would love to have a friend to play with during the day. I also have a cat who mainly just sticks to himself during the day- please no dogs who are not safe around cats.

“Brittany has been great with my 3 month old puppy. Based on how excited he gets to see her makes me comfortable and happy he enjoys his stays with her. Highly recommend!”


“I felt very comfortable leaving Basil with Kimberlee and her son. They took Basil on a long walk right when she arrived. Basil was very happy to play with the other dogs in her care and was very relaxed when I came to pick her up. They sent me pictures of Basil while she was there as well. I would recommend!”


“Zarina saved our last minute plans by being able to take our dog for us for the day! She updated us with pictures and made sure he got plenty of play time! He was TIRED out when he got home, which was great for us to have a tired puppy when we were tired out as well.”


“I started Casey off staying in a commercialized doggy day care setting because I thought it would be fun for him to interact with other dogs. However, when I would watch him on camera, I would see him sitting by himself or looking for attention from the staff which he did not get. A friend told me about Rover and I gave it a try. I saw Taya's ad and though Casey would like her and boy was I right! He likes the human connection he has when he goes to spend time with. I noticed that he feels at home with her and is always happy to see her. I dubbed Taya as Casey's second favorite person! We will forever be connected!!”


“Tom is great! Our dog is a giant puppy, and Tom and his dogs made sure she had fun and was comfortable. I know because of the photos he shared, his communication and thoughtful questions, and because she came home happy! We’ll be visiting Tom again!”


About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years, starting with pet and house sitting for neighbors in my community. Growing up, I trained my yellow lab to be a therapy dog and enjoyed bringing him to hospitals and retirement centers to brighten the days of patients and residents. I’m happy to have continued caring for my neighbors’ pets throughout my life, and I plan to keep doing so for many years to come. I live with my fiancée and our two kittens, Gracie and Tiger, in a charming old farmhouse on over two acres in the Chagrin Valley. Our property features a fenced-in yard and a pond, offering plenty of space for pets to explore. We’re also near the Metroparks, making it a perfect spot for outdoor adventures. When I’m not caring for animals, I work as a Realtor, helping people find their dream homes and properties in Northeast Ohio. I’m passionate about making both people and pets feel at home, whether it’s through real estate or animal caretaking. I offer a variety of services, from dog walks to livestock and horse care, ensuring the needs of all animals are met with love and attention. I work from home mainly so my schedule is flexible and when I take care of an animal I can generally modify my schedule to be home caring for your pet the whole time. I have a fenced in yard on my property snd live in a quiet part of Geauga county just outside Chagrin Falls with friendly caring neighbors. I live with my fiancée who also loves animals and is experienced in caring for pets.

Catherine P.
“When I first met Catherine, she struck me as a kind and gentle person. Owning her beloved yellow lab, Peter, for fourteen years taught her love. Taking care of Peter when he developed diabetes in his later years taught her responsibility. She is diligent, hardworking, and attentive, and I would trust her with anything. Speaking as the owner of the sweetest Wheaten Terrier In the world, I am confident that Catherine would be a great dog caregiver and walker with Rover.”
