About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I work full time, so evenings during the week work best and my availability is flexible on the weekends. I am more than happy to discuss more! My services will be suited for the clients’ need. I will discuss with you on how to care for pets before the booked appointment. You will know exactly where your pet is at all times.
About: I've cared for my sister's dog while she is on vacation, and have several years caring for animals. Part-time, I care for 2 Jack Russell's and a Shorkie - the owners would be happy to recommend my services. I own a cat Allie, and she is treated like a queen, as should be any animal I would be caring for. Animals deserve the greatest love, attention and affection, and I consider them such a high priority. I have a semi flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to devote to the care of your fur babies, in your home, and while you are away. In the Meet & Greet, I will listen very intently for your animal (s) needs, and take detailed instruction on leash requirements, procedures, special requests, etc. Thank you, Nicole (Nicki) I am self-employed and therefore, flexible. I do watch my 3 doggies from 10:30-2:30 Monday through Friday, but otherwise have roughly 10 hours of drafting plans for an Architect. Those hours are also, quite flexible. I can accommodate your needs for overnight stays, medicines, play. While I prefer a fenced yard, I can accommodate on a leash if we are not going too far.
About: I’ve had animals all my life! Mostly dogs but I’ve added a cat to my family and my sister has some bunnies. I’m the girl at the party who immediately finds the animal in the house and bonds with it!! I can’t add another pet to my clan but I’d love to spend some time with your sweet pet!! I work from home all week and get off work at noon on Fridays. I cannot take animals to my house but I have no problem traveling. Before taking care of an animal, I like to go to the house and meet the animal with the owners present. Then I can see how they behave at the house and get a run down of the do’s and don’ts
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: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I currently have a yellow lab, Ranger, who will be turning three in September—he’s truly my whole world! I’ve raised him since he was a puppy and have put a lot of time and care into his training, so I understand how important consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement are. I also have a 4-month-old puppy, River, so I’m very familiar with the energy, attention, and structure that puppies need. In addition to my own dogs, I’ve taken in foster dogs over the years, which has given me experience working with a wide range of personalities—from playful pups to senior dogs who need a gentler approach. Daily walks are one of my favorite activities, and I love making sure dogs get the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a reliable sitter, or someone patient and experienced, I will treat them like my own—with lots of love, care, and attention to their unique needs. I’d love to meet your pup! I work a 8-5 so I could walk before work at anytime. I could also walk at 6 or 7 during the week after work! I love a morning walk with a pal. With a lab I know all about it a ton of energy and how to handle it. We have worked a ton on leash and he is 60 lbs.
About: I’ve had and cared for dogs my whole life. I began learning the responsibilities of taking care of dogs when I was 10 but have lived with a dog since I was a baby. I’ve taken care of my own pets and others pets when they have become or were ill (such as cancer, simple old age, arthritis’s, etc). I have worked with/watched puppies and adult dogs all the way to end of life senior dogs. I treat all pets as if they are my own fur baby with endless love, care, and compassion. I do have experience working at a doggie daycare and boarding facility as I worked at one for 3 years. I know the basics to first aid in dogs but do not know how to give CPR. I currently work part time at a doggie daycare/boarding facility and every 2 weeks will have my availability. I am willing to do same day bookings if available. Most days I can do daily doggie checkins/walking. I make sure then dog/s alway has fresh clean water. I make sure they are fed and eat like normal. Take them out every 1-3 hours or as needed. Do daily walks or indoor playtime if raining.

About: I’ve been dog sitting and caring for pets since I was young for neighbors, friends, and family members. I still regularly help care for family pets and truly love being around animals. I’m known for being patient, dependable, kind, and always on time. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾 My current work schedule allows for week day morning to evening walks and drop in visits with your favorite furry family member! I have weekend availability in early mornings from 6am-10am. Your pets deserve someone who is trustworthy, patient, and genuinely cares for animals — and that’s exactly the care I provide. I understand that pets are family, so I prioritize their safety, comfort, routines, and happiness during every walk or visit. With years of experience caring for my own dogs and pets of neighbors, friends, and family, I’m dependable, attentive, environmentally conscious, always on time, and committed to treating every pet with love, kindness, and respect. 🐾
About: Experienced with diabetic pets, including insulin administration and blood glucose monitoring. Hi! I provide reliable, in-home pet care so your pet can stay comfortable and stress-free in their own environment. I focus on keeping your pet’s routine consistent while you’re away—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply having someone there with them. I’m very attentive to behavior and always make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

My goal is simple: to keep your pet comfortable, cared for, and in their normal routine while giving you peace of mind. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to see if I’m a good fit for you and your pet! I like to add a little fun into my routine with animals. I did work at a doggy daycare for about three years, until I successfully came into the medical field. Missing my favorite pups that I created a great/exciting bond with them. I would still like to create new bonds, even if I'm not at the daycare!! I usually write down a schedule sheet on what your pet and I have done doing the days that I have been sitting. Always asked for permission before doing anything. Making sure everything is locked up and looking nice once I leave.

I would love to be of assistance for families looking for someone to take care of their pup! I am a current college student, however I have plenty of free time/days to take care of your pets! I have played college soccer for the past four years, so I know how to be reliable and responsible. Currently my schedule is very open for dog sitting/walking and I’d love to help out! I live in a dog friendly apartment complex, so if necessary I could accommodate for pet care in my home. As for in a client’s home, I can follow any set of directions you left to take care of your fur baby!

I am available Tuesday-Thursday 4pm and on. I am flexible and like to know about the pets schedule and routine. I have a fenced in yard and access to lots of park areas.
“Nicole was very responsive and able to come meet me and our dog on a very short notice. She was great with our dog right away and we felt comfortable having her come over to spend time with our dog. She was amazing and very communicative throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend her and we look forward to having her watch our dog again!”


“Nanci is one of the best that Rover has to offer! She really listens to everything that will make our dog happy and he definitely is:-) he loves her and is so excited when she comes to visit. She makes it okay that we have to leave. I highly recommend her and I will definitely use her again!”

“i was looking for someone to drop in on my 2 labs 3x a day in the evening hours and was lucky enough to find donavyn just around the corner - my labs took to him right away - donavyns experience with larger dogs really put my mind at ease as larger dogs can be a handful for those who haven’t experienced larger breeds- he’s was prompt for all visits, spent a good amount of time exercising my dogs in the yard even when the weather was chilly, he spent quality cuddle time each visit with both dogs and sent lots of pictures while i was gone - if your looking for someone responsible and trustworthy to watch over your animals i would highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate calling donavyn - i’ll definitely be calling on him again for future visits.”

“Jordan did a great job taking care of our two fussy cats during a very crazy week of winter storms. If you want somebody who really understands how to take of cats, he’s your guy!”

Gracie is amazing! We will definitely be booking her drop-in services again for our 3 dogs. She came over before our trip to meet our pups and get a run down of their routine. Then at each drop-in visit, we got an update and great photos! Gracie is reliable, trustworthy, and there's no doubt she loves dogs! Five stars! Highly recommend!

Michelle has excellent communication skills which is so important when you have to leave your fur baby! She was kind, thoughtful, Played and loved our golden, and made sure everything was left exactly as we had left it. Michelle even brought in our chewy box that arrived while she as here. I would highly recommend.
