About: I grew up in a home full of animals, including three boxers. I have taken care of them in their senior age so I also know what that may look like! I currently have three dogs of my own, all of which i’ve had since they were puppies, so I am aware of what puppy care/training can look like as well! I currently work overnight, and am home all day. My schedule is 9pm-9am so I am home from around 9:30am-8:30pm. My significant other is on first shift, so he is home during the night! I have a fenced in yard, and three pups to keep yours company! Since I am home all day, they can have potty breaks and freedom as much as they’d like! If I do have to run an errand it is normally not for more than 2 hours, but if your pup needs crated, I can easily do that! There is a spare room that if they need some down time or you’d prefer them to be alone at any point, they can just hangout in there! We have them on relatively the same schedule everyday. Wake up around 9, go outside and play, eat around 10, then we can play all day! They eat again around 7pm. If you need me to come watch your pup in your home I have also done that numerous times!
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life and currently care for three of my own. I’m experienced with all ages. From playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra love. I'm patient, reliable, and treat every dog like family, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m home for the summer, so I have plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available almost every day for walks, playtime, or overnight stays. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I follow all routines closely—feeding, walks, playtime, or medications—and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I keep things calm, safe, and stress-free so your pet feels happy while you're away.
About: I have grown up taking care of pets my whole life. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their fur babies while they are away! I will give your furry family member snuggles, smiles and adventures! I currently work a full time job Monday-Friday 8am-5pm. I can take care of your pets before 7am or after 6pm with walks or potty breaks. Weekends I am free anytime! I have two dogs of my own that are very friendly. I have a fenced in backyard. I will make sure that your furry companion is leashed properly when going on walks or potty breaks when watching at your house.
About: I've graduated from Medina Country Career Center's Animal Management and Care program. I also have pet sitting experience in the past taking care of a variety of different dogs and cats and occasionally exotics. I currently work as a housekeeper and am usually off by 3 most afternoons (Though my off time is not 100% guarenetted sometimes I'm not off till after 4) and always have weekends off. My care will vary depending on each animals needs and what the owners are looking for, I cater my care to the unique requirements for each individual.
“Maia did an amazing job of caring for our cats while we were gone! This was the second time she has been here and we couldn't be any happier. She sends us pictures and updates, she plays with our needy kitten, and she even noticed our flowers were dying in the heat and watered! We are so thankful to have such a kind, dependable, wonderful person to take care of things while we are gone! Maia is absolutely the best you could find - no reason to try anyone else!!”
About: I have worked in professional pet care for five years, as a kennel technician, a doggy day care supervisor, and have cared for puppies in a pet store. I have personally owned cats, guinea pigs, and an iguana. In my Pet Care experience I have exercised, pottied, fed, and watered pets. I have administered some medications (including insulin) and have given dog baths. I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I would love to be there for your pet when you are not able to. Not only do I enjoy taking care of pets, but I love helping them feel safe and cared for. Pet Care is my full time job. I fill my work schedule with clients who need their pets taken care of overnight, throughout the day, or who need walked. I can be flexible and work out schedules with clients. When I am with your pets, my full attention is on them. I will follow the client’s guidelines for how to best care for the pets.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 8 years old. Taking care of animals has always been a love of mine. I don’t currently work because I have a transplant so I have plenty of free time to spend with your animals walking or playing with them! I have two cats of my own and I had a dog but she recently passed away from old age so helping take care of other animals is a passion of mine.
About: I've had two large-breed dogs for about 7 years. I'm experienced with their training, but also how dogs interact with other dogs and people. I'm familiar with walking large dogs and keeping them safe when exercising. I'm detail oriented, responsible and thorough. I am flexible with scheduling and have reliable transportation. I understand feeding schedules and can accommodate a schedule that fits your pet. I have availability during the week and weekend. Within my home, I have a fenced in yard, doggy gates and am always sure to keep their information up to date. I'm careful with closing doors and keeping pets leashed to make sure they are safe on walks. I'm aware to keep a safe environment and put food and other things they could get into away.
“Tyler cared for our Balinese cat and bearded dragon while we vacationed in Japan for two weeks. I was really worried about leaving the cat for that long, as she can be shy and we adopted her just a few months ago. Tyler is in fact a cat whisperer - as evident by the photos he sent, she adored him. We came home to a happy, heathy cat and lizard. Tyler went above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to friends and family. I will definitely use him in the future.”
About: I have had 2 dogs of my own since I was 12. I have dog sat many dogs for friends and others for at least 6 years.

I also have a crate if needed as well as a baby gate.
“She is a great communicator. And takes great care of our corgis. And she shows great flexibility around her schedule to make sure we are taken care of and if we need anything extra, she can be there. Grateful we found her.”

“Laura agreed to drop in and feed my cats for me while I was out of town. Little did I know that she would stay with them for several hours so they had someone with them! She was absolutely the best pet sitter I ever had!! Laura loves animals and is extremely loving and responsible.”
Isabel B.
“I have hired Cass several times. Once, while I was in Europe for three weeks. She not only cared for my dog, my cat but also my home. My pets were well fed, but more importantly, well adjusted. She went so far as to buy some new toys for them! Trusting someone to care for members of your family is a big deal and I would highly recommend Cass!❤️”

Cassandra H.
“Cassandra has always had a soft spot for animals. She has owned cats, guinea pigs, fish, and an iguana. She understands animals have not only physical needs, but also emotional. She knows they need to be safe, warm, and fed, but she also knows they need to feel safe, loved, and stimulated. She has worked at a veterinarian office/boarding facility and also at an animal shelter. She has fed and walked dogs, cleaned yucky stalls, and got the know the different animals' personalities. When my family took a day trip last year, I asked Cassandra to come check on our dog (let her out, feed her, etc.). Our dog had recently been spayed, and Cassandra was very careful with her. She sent me pictures of our dog's incision so we could see for ourselves that it was still healing well. I would definitely recommend Cassandra to care for your pet! She is a lovely girl with a big heart for both humans and our furry friends.”
