About: Not your average dog caretaker! I am a big dog lover! I have experience walking and taking care of dogs, puppies as well as seniors, small, medium sized and with a high energy level. Walking with your dog is not just a good exercise, it is also a good opportunity to show them attention and affection. I take a trust based approach to dogs and make sure they feel safe, happy and loved when they are with me. My goal is to leave you with a happy dog and to leave your dog with a satisfied owner. Animal care is a big part of my daily routine, and I love spending time with dogs. With my flexible schedule, I can provide walks, sitting, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and safe while their owners are away. I provide personalized care, including walks, playtime, feeding, and a safe environment. My husband and I live in a pet friendly, cozy bungalow with a lot of grass areas. Whether in my home or a client’s, I follow their routine to keep pets happy and well cared for.

Savannah was excellent! I appreciated how thorough she was and how she put so much care and intention into caring for my dog, Yuki! We scheduled a meet and greet beforehand so that we could go over some details and get acclimated with each other. On the day of the walk, she followed all of the instructions and sent some cute photos from the walk. Will definitely be working with Savannah again soon!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and it’s something I truly enjoy. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me to feed, walk, and spend quality time with their pets while they’re away. I worked at the humane society, so I have experience with various breeds and temperaments. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs—whether that’s high-energy playtime, gentle care for senior dogs, or helping reinforce basic training. I prioritize safety, routine, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m currently working part-time as a nanny, so I have plenty of time to be with your pet! I’m available on the weekends and Monday-Wednesday I own a home in Talmadge with a fully fenced yard, offering a safe and secure space for pets to play and relax. My quiet, secluded neighborhood is ideal for calm, enjoyable walks. I closely supervise all outdoor time and prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine so they feel right at home.

Due to an injury, living upstairs I’m not supposed to do much of and having to use a cane for awhile, I desperately needed help asap walking my big girl. We are active and usually walk at least two miles twice a day. I came across Daniel’s profile, nervous as I’ve never had anyone but myself walk my sometimes very hard headed strong Cane Corso. I really appreciated that his profile noted that he’s comfortable with bigger breeds and has one of his own. I can’t say enough good things about his work ethic, kindness, gentle demeanor, quick communication, punctuality, professionalism - all of it! Not to mention my dog with some serious separation anxiety by the 3rd morning was up before the alarm in the morning to put on her “necklace” and go walk with her new bestie! She now pouts and looks out the window for an hour after their walks! (ha ha thanks Daniel!) I have booked future walks with full confidence and absolutely no hesitation. I am so very very thankful for his way with my working breed dog and his help!

About: I've dog sat for friends and family over the years. Helped dogs while sick during their stay with them. Including taking action with going to the vet. I never allow strangers to pet a dog that is not mine to protect not only the stranger but more importantly the dog. Hi I’m Anna, Margaret is my legal name 😃. I work from home so can take time during lunch to walk your dog and after work. Or if you need me to visit and spend time at your home I can do so with might laptop. As well as helping on the weekend if needed. When having friends pets stay at my home I allow them to feel like it is also theirs. I maintain a clean home where the dog will not stumble upon things they should not eat. I do the same while staying at clients homes. Follow all rules the owner has laid out as well as ask questions for clarification when needed.

About: My friends and neighbors count on me to check on and sit their animals, and I regularly walk my own pups with their neighborhood furry friends. I grew up with Rottweilers, and have embraced small dogs in recent years. I'm 6ft and 200lbs, and am comfortable with a variety of sizes of dogs. I currently have total flexibility in my schedule and am happy to help with pet care throughout the day. I'm just getting started on Rover, but I've been a dedicated pet parent for almost a decade and love the way it enriches my life. I'd be happy to extend the same level of care and understanding I give to my own pets to yours. I live with my two pups in a small condo complex, where I have an enclosed back patio and immediate access to a very walkable neighborhood. I am comfortable entering friends' homes and allowing the animals to acclimate at their own pace, and am just as happy taking pets for walks as I am keeping them company in their own homes.

About: What sets me apart is how attentive and patient I am with every pet I care for. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I take my time to make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for during every visit. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in, I treat each pet like they’re my own and make sure they get not just the basics, but genuine care, affection, and attention. Pet parents can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and consistent every time. I am currently with a lot of free time, trying to stay active and what better way to go for walks than with a dog. I’m very attentive, patient, and reliable. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for during every visit.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and spending time with them. Whether it’s going for walks, stopping by for a drop-in, or just sitting and petting them, I truly enjoy their company. I’m the kind of person who doesn’t rush interactions - I like to slow down and make sure dogs feel comfortable, relaxed and cared for. I also have hands-on experience helping take care of my sisters dog. I regularly help with walks, feeding, playtime and keeping her dog company, so I understand how important consistency, patience and attention are. Through that experience, I’ve learned how much dogs thrive when they feel safe and loved, not just “checked on.” I’m respectful of routine and instructions, dependable, and genuinely enjoy hanging out with dogs - giving them affection, calm companionship and the care they deserve while their owners are away. I’m respectful of each dogs needs and the owners instructions and I do best with friendly, well-socialized dogs. While im happy to accommodate different personalities, I prefer working with dogs who are not aggressive or prone to biting, so I can provide the safest and most positive experience for everyone involved. Overall, I’m attentive and genuinely enjoy spending quality time with dogs - not just checking in, but making sure they feel loved and at ease while you’re away Pet care fits well into my routine because I’m a part time student, which gives me flexibility during the day. I also enjoy staying active with my own hobbies, so walks, playtime and spending time with pets fits naturally into my schedule. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime and lots of attention. I also make sure they feel safe & relaxed while their owners are away

About: I bring a calm, dependable approach to pet care. I’m an EMT with training in K9, CPR, and basic first aid, and I’m especially patient with both puppies and senior dogs.

I work nights, so I’m available during the day, preferably morning or walks, hikes, runs check ins, and quality time. I stay active with hiking and running, Transparency is very important to me.

About: I've had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been a big part of who I am. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand that every dog has unique needs, routines, and personalities. My own dog is now a senior and can't enjoy the long walks and hikes we used to take together, so I'd love the opportunity to spend that time with other dogs who still enjoy those adventures. I've been caring for neighbors', family friends', and relatives' dogs since I was young, giving me experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments. I've also helped with puppy training and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. I'm flexible, dependable, and detail-oriented. Whether your dog needs a strict routine followed closely or a customized schedule based on their individual needs, I'll make sure they receive attentive, loving care. My goal is to treat every dog like my own and give owners peace of mind while they're away. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. I work part-time both from home and at a local coffee shop, but my shifts are typically only about four hours long. This makes it easy for me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, walks, and check-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so I’m happy to fit pet care into my daily routine and give your pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. When caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining their normal routine. For house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and household rules. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, so I take time to build trust and make sure they feel secure while you are away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for in their own familiar environment.

About: Growing up with all sorts of animals since I was a little one, I’ve always understood the imense responsibility that comes with owning pets. Having a few pets myself independently now, I also know how important it is to have a trusted and honest person to look after while you’re away from home! That said, aside from growing up with and caring for my own pets, I have also worked in the veterinary field a few years ago. Thus making me experienced with administering medications if needed, as well as having worked with pets in need of special care and attention. From high energy, to seniors! My availability is fairly flexible, within reason and I am always quick to get back to you asap. Though I can’t take any pets in for boarding due to my landlords policy, I am happy to house sit and send plenty of photos of your pets to check in with you if that’s something you would like. Feel free to ask my any other questions that I may not have answered. And I look forward to hearing from you!

Jesselle is a lovely person and dog walker! Due to an injury, I booked her for a week to help me out in the morning with my sometimes stubborn separation anxiety type Corso. Being as Jesselle had listed she has large dog experience, I felt more confident she would be able to handle my dog. She is very sweet, very kind, on time professional and my dog absolutely loved her after the very first day. Made me feel so much more confident as I navigated the help that I needed. I am very thankful and appreciated of her and highly recommend her.
