Dog Sitting in Struthers

About: I interned under a dog trainer and doggy day care specialist a while back before he relocated out of my area. He taught me about controling aggression, basic commands, feeding, and potty training. I previously worked at a vet clinic which helps in knowing how to handle various moods of dogs. Ones with anger, fear, anxiety, or explosions of happiness! It also gave me the knowledge for medications (oral and injectable). I used to work for Disney's Animal Kindgom where I dove trucks for Kilimanjaro Safaris, so basically my whole life revolves around animals. I'm still currently at Animal Kingdom but as an animal educator for exotic animals. I'm punctual, available early mornings and evenings, and am comfortable introducing dogs to one another. I am also very good at special care for pets (ie. Diets, treats, play time, potty time, crate time, bed time, medications, and etc...). I hope I can be of service to you and your pet! I am currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your fur children. I am available most times of the day and can work around most schedules. I have a fenced in back yard and a friendly dog that loves to play. He can help keep all the fur friends entertained and if need be, I can crate pets as well. I have a small supply of blankets, can offer quite time if needed, and have plenty of puzzle games for those that need a mental challenge.

“She was so good to my Molly who passed away in January. Now I have my son’s Pomeranian Baxter/Backstreet Boi/Spicy Tater Tot. He love to play & she give him plenty of play time! She always makes sure he has water & treats!!!!”

About: I've spent a lot of time caring for many different animals including dogs, cats, indoor birds and poultry. I've worked with training my own dogs from the first day to make sure they're well behaved. I have a cockatiel and a parakeet, as well as two dogs in my own home currently. I have open availability to meet your pets needs and I can work with you need something else. I am a residential cleaner and I have open availability for cleaning homes, we can discuss details if desired. I adhere to a strict routine with my own dogs everyday when we wake up, and towards the evening we unwind and relax with a lots of pets, cuddles and kisses.

About: I've been a dog lover all my life, and currently have two of my own that are now 9 and 11 so I have many years of experience. I work remotely and have daytime flexibility to do drop-ins and walks for pet parents that are gone during the day. Daytime drop-ins and walks. I have flexibility to do two to three visits usually between 11am-7pm. We can work out a schedule that fits your needs I'm confident in handling small and medium dogs as I have a corgi and a beagle myself. I can do walks, treats, playtime...whatever your dog needs to feel comfortable.

“Alexis was wonderful with my boys!! She was more than flexible and was great at communicating! She went above and beyond by even covering my couch that I forgot to cover before I left! Would 100% recommend!”

About: I have cared for pets most of my life. After high school, I would pet sit for teachers who went on vacation—and through word of mouth, became a regular on call sitter for 3 different homes with multiple pets. I have cared for, mostly, senior dogs but am so happy to give puppies the attention and energy they need. I especially love going on long walks. I am currently in nursing school and, because it’s an online hybrid program, I have lots of free time during the day and evenings. I have clinicals during the weekend but will be sure to block those days off when I get my schedule. I do not offer boarding for pets in my own home, since I live in an apartment, but am happy to do whatever you need to care for your little (or big) family members! All I need is instruction and I’ll take care of it.

About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs most of my adult life, and have had my own for the last 3! I know how stressful it can be putting your pup in someone else’s care, but I aim to make the experience as smooth as possible! I have a very flexible schedule as I work remote from home. So being able to take care of your dog during the day will be a breeze! My weekends are also always open, and my husband and I would love to watch your pup if you’re taking a vacation. Whatever instructions you leave, I’ll follow. I know how important it is to maintain structure in your dogs life, so I’ll always adhere to that. I can also offer training and enrichment activities for your dog on top of the walks for added stimulus.

About: My name is Ronda. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for years. I have also been a foster for a rescue group for years. Your animal will be taken care of and loved as if they were my own. I do not currently have any pets. I recently lost my 2 senior dogs. I have a large home and fenced in back yard. I also have a doggie door if that is something your dog is used to (if not, it will be closed up). They will have free roam of the house when I am gone or can be crated if that is what they prefer. I will take them for daily walks or hang with then on the couch. Meds, special diets, or any special needs will be addressed. I'll text updates and sends pictures. Whatever you and your furbaby want, I will accommodate. I accept dogs of any size.

About: I have always loved having pets especially dogs. I have my own baby her name is Nova she is a red nose pit bull she turned 3 years old on June 3rd I love her so much i have been walking her since forever and decided it was time to take what I love ( being around dogs) and turn it into a business I would be happy to go to work everyday with a smile. I own a house with a six foot fenced in back yard for any dog to run and play. I also have a park near by in my very quite yet friendly neighborhood. I would love to walk or sit any pet family member you might need. Thank you

“Ali was very patient with my old anxiety ridden , never leave my side dog. She only got to sit with him for a day and a half but I feel she did a wonderful job. I will be booking her again in the future. Hopefully he’ll remember her and not be so skidish.”

About: I spent three years in college volunteering and taking care of service dogs in training, have volunteered at animal shelters, and have had two different dogs of my own throughout my life! I work a 9-5 Monday-Thursday and work 9-2 on Fridays. I'd love to help you out any time outside of those timeframes. Weekends and holidays are especially perfect! I'm super respectful of requests and rules, and understand that each pet has different needs. I cannot have pets in my apartment, but would love to help your pup outdoors or in your house however you'd like!

“Laine was very friendly and competent. She took very good care of our fur baby :) Hopefully, in the future, we can book her again.”

About: I was born and raised with dogs in our home and I have always had multiple dogs as an adult. My husband and I have fostered more dogs than I can count. I belonged to a dog training club for 20 years focused on teaching the average dog owner the basics such as potty training and manners. My friends and relatives entrust me with their dogs care whether it be drop ins or boarding in my home. I do not currently work outside of my home. I am available to let your dogs out while you work, bring them to my house for daycare and boarding is available. I will take care of your dogs like they are my own. I have a large fenced yard and 4 of my own friendly dogs. I can easily crate dogs if necessary. There is also room to separate any dog that may be unsure. There will be times when I will have them rest so that no one becomes overstimulated.

About: I grew up with 3 dogs and have trained our 2 year old chocolate lab. He is off leash trained, knows a lot of tricks and gets a lot of play time. Used to dog sit for neighbors and family as a kid. Our chocolate lab gets a bedtime routine to sooth his paw pads, brush his coat and lots of fetch and puppy pool time. I am available to help walk, play and dog sit anytime/day unless otherwise noted beforehand. Happy to bring any friendly dog over to our place to play with Kahlua. We love going to the white water center so they get to hike and play in the lake. We have a yard in the back where we play fetch(our dog is off leash trained, would work best if your dog will stay close by with a good recall). Lots of walks around our friendly neighborhood. Have a crate ready for use if needed or wanted.

“Amanda was great. She was very attentive of our cats while we were on our trip and did an amazing job communicating.”

“Rhianna is consistent, reliable, good-natured and attentive. Her love for animals shows! She sent pictures of our dogs with every report card, and not just snapshots, but cute, funny, thoughtful and artistic pictures. We were confident that our dogs were getting top-notch care and attention while we were gone. She is our #1 choice and we would book her again for every trip without hesitation!”
