Dog Sitting Spencer

About: Hey there! I’m Kristen. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was in elementary school! I have experience taking care of and owning small and large dog breeds, cats, and even farm animals like goats, pigs, turkeys and cows! I also worked at a local public alpaca farm, Majestic Meadows, and provided love, care and husbandry for a variety of exotic and farm animals, including horses, donkeys, alpacas, llamas, and more! I have experience working with animals who have special dietary needs, special medication needs, senior pets, and pets who have physical disabilities and need extra care and aid! I can brush your pet, clean their ears and teeth (if they will let me and it is safe to do so), and give them a simple bath if you would like! Lastly I do have experience in basic behavior training for dogs, including click/reward training to teach sitting, lay down, and release, however I am NOT a professional dog trainer and am not willing to sit for dogs that experience highly aggressive behaviors or biting towards new people. I am currently doing Rover full time, so I will have plenty of time for your pets needs and for playtime, and am able to make sure that bathroom breaks and meal/snack times are not spaced too far apart :) For house sitting I cannot stay full time around the clock as I often have doctors appointments I need to attend, so I may have to come and go, but I would not be gone for longer than 3-4 hours at any given time, so if your fur baby can be alone for 3-4 hours, then I can accommodate for that 😊 I make sure to closely follow any given instructions for pet care, including instructions for a special diet or medications, and if the pet needs any special needs care or aid with grooming! I like to go over the details with clients of how their pet may like to play, how they get along with other animals/people, how they like to be pet, how they do on walks, what their favorite snacks are, and of course any special needs such as oral medications, special dietary needs, etc… to make sure that I am offering the highest quality of care and comfortability for their fur baby! I also make sure to pay close attention to timing between meals, snacks and potty breaks so their pets don’t become uncomfortable or have any accidents. Lastly, I make sure to give lots of love and attention to their pet so they don’t feel lonely!

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on farm experience caring for multiple species, combined with over a year of professional kennel work. I’m confident handling a variety of temperaments and routines, and I have long-term references who have trusted me with their animals for years I provide pet care full time, which means I have consistent availability for drop-ins, walks, and extended stays. My flexible schedule allows me to prioritize your pet’s routine and be reliable when you need coverage. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, and household routines exactly as provided. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I never allow unsafe interactions with other animals. I respect your home as if it were my own — keeping it clean, secure, and organized while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so you always feel at ease.

“Lori was prompt daily, send pictures and provided great company for Snickers while I was away. Would definitely book again! 😊”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid! I was involved in 4-H & FFA & showed animals big and small! I was raised in a dog & cat friendly home.

I am a busy body when it comes to my pets. Aside from caring for my two pups, I can usually be found in the barn feeding, brushing, or doing horse stalls. I am hyper-vigilant about making sure pets are leashed and safely secured. I’m also always on the look out for potential safety issues and prefer to keep collars off of pets that get crated just in case.

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and needs. I helped train service dogs, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to read behavior closely. I’ve also raised three puppies, so I’m confident with training, routines, and high-energy dogs. On top of that, I volunteered at the Parma Animal Shelter throughout high school, working with a wide range of temperaments. I’m comfortable with everything from playful puppies to more sensitive or older dogs, and I make sure each pet gets attentive, personalized care I’m currently working part-time, but I’m a college student home for the summer, so I have a very flexible and open schedule. I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, or extended care, and I can easily adjust my availability to fit your pet’s routine. Whether you need consistent daily visits or last-minute help, I’m able to be reliable and accommodating. I care for pets in the client’s home so they stay in a familiar, low-stress environment. I stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions or medications. I make sure they get plenty of attention and care, keep their space clean, and adjust to their personality and energy level. I also provide updates so owners know their pet is safe and well cared for.

About: Growing up I had a sweet little fur baby named Bruno. He was a pug and my whole life. My family and I loved him so much after rescuing him he lived to be almost 16 years of age! Since then, I spent many weekends dog or cat sitting as well as working at a doggy daycare, called Paws for a brief period of time where I was able to hone in my skills. Daily/weekly pet care comes from observing the comfort and behaviors of each pet. There are a big dog park just around the corner of my apartment as well as a hiking route I love to take dogs to run around with. It's a perfect place to go for a few hours so that your fur babys can have the most fun! Safety and trust are the most important part of having an animal in my home. I want to make sure your fur baby is given everything they need so they can enjoy their time with me. Animals lives are short, and they deserve the best with the time they have.

About: I previously worked at a Pet Care Center and have worked with the dogs that were lodging with the facility. I also am a wedding pet attendant since 2021. I am familiar with dogs needs and wants. Each dog is so unique and each have such a personality of their own which I can adapt to. I have previously had a Great Pyrenees who lived until 13 years old, I now have an adopted Labradoodle who I have had for two years and she is now 6 years old. I love to get outside with my dog and also love to cuddle up on the couch. Typically you find us outside at a park, cuddling, and working on our commands for yummy treats, I will treat your dog as if it were my own, giving it the love and compassion it needs while you are away. I know that loyalty is important when it comes to your pets! I work full-time and also some weekends; however, I am also available during the weekends for drop-ins and to stop by to walk your pup. I always have the pets best interest in mind, even if it doesn’t fit into the original itinerary. I always feel you need to meet the dog where they are and work with them to improve their skills.

I worked alongside doctors at Cuyahoga Valley Veterinary Clinic, I pet/house sit for people via word of mouth (friends of friends and family) and i have a few great references if needed. I work a part time job as a server and I only work 5 hour shifts, so I would be able to provide frequent potty breaks and time with your pet(s). I have plenty of time so I can spend some with your babies! I am able to do whatever instructions are provided for me, in addition to leashing the dog outside (if required) and making sure they are safe and secure when I depart.

About: As a dedicated dog lover and proud owner of two golden retrievers, I understand that every dog is family. My experience caring for my own pups has given me firsthand knowledge of everything from puppy energy to the gentle needs of senior dogs. I provide patient, loving care tailored to each dog’s personality, age, and routine. Whether it’s keeping your energetic pup entertained or giving extra attention to older dogs, I treat every dog like my own—with love, consistency, and a whole lot of belly rubs. I’m a college student studying early education at the Ohio State. I have a pretty flexible schedule with my classes but would love to try to accommodate your pups needs. While I prefer daytime care, I can also accommodate overnight stays with advance notice. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I’m excited to give your dog the attention, playtime, and love they deserve! While I don’t offer in-home boarding, I’m happy to care for your dog in the comfort of your own home. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, and I’ll treat your home and your dog with the utmost respect and care. My own dogs are protective, so I don’t offer playdates, but I’m more than happy to take your pup on walks, to the park, or to any favorite spots they enjoy. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities.

“Kate took great care of my puppy! She stayed extra time to make sure Q got plenty of playtime and sent a bunch of adorable photos. We will definitely be booking Kate to puppy sit again!”

About: I have two dogs of my own and have had two others before. I have trained my dogs myself from puppy’s to adults. I have also worked at a pet hotel and have fed and cleaned up as well as cared for animals while also getting their scheduled play times in. I currently work part time at PetSmart and have extra time on my hands to care for your lovely pets and am more than excited to meet them! I would love to modify how to care for your pets based off their needs and make sure they get the best care for them possible!

About: I’ve had all kinds of pets throughout the years, some have been special needs or needed extra attention and medication, so I have a lot of experience with pets that have special needs. I always take care to read instructions and procedures and try to make the experience as painless as possible for our furry friends. I’m currently on a break from work so my time and schedule are flexible for all the fluffy clients for whatever they need. Long walks, short walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, I can do it all. Everyone’s home needs to be respected, I will make sure that clients feel comfortable with me being in their homes and taking care of their cats and like my grandma used to say “take care, stay in your lane, and clean it up if you can”.
