“I was very hesitant about leaving Maple with a stranger. My husband normally watches her during the day due to being remote, but something came up last minute and we needed a sitter. After reading lots of reviews, I found and felt confident choosing Austin. Maple had the best time!! As soon as we got home, she ran and laid in the bed. She was tired (so thank you!). Austin communicated well and sent lots of picture updates. He even gifted us with a Polaroid photo of our sweet girl. THANK YOU AUSTIN. We will definitely be booking him again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Jillian was great with our beagle, Cooper. She took him for a couple of walks and made sure he was comfortable while we were gone for the day. We definitely recommend her for anyone who needs pet care in the Cleveland area!”

“I've been booking him the last 2 weeks for 4 days a week plus an emergency day because my dog is super comfortable with him & after a long day I can tell he helps her get her idle energy out while I'm working. Not to mention the regular updates are appreciated, it truly gives me a peace of mind while at work. It's safe to say I'm gonna continue taking her he's a true dog lover like myself.”

About: I have my own puppy and I love her more than words can explain. She is the light of my life and my favorite person I am currently working part time as a ICU Registered Nurse, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your dogs, pups or cats I have an apartment that’s close to a walking trail and a dog park. Daily walks will be extra fun and I also have a dog they can play with

About: Does your dog like nature walks or is it more of a structured walk play type of animal? I can provide both. We can take long walks outdoors or we can find an area that is more city like and spend some time walking around. I have over 20 years experience caring for dogs. I have kids and treat my pets like my children they will be very loved. I have an open schedule I can work from 6am to at least 9 pm. I do not have a preference on the type of dog as I have owned from toy to giant and can handle them without any problems. We will play catch, run, and will provide obedience training at owners request.Will provide toys. I am currently self employed so I can provide all the love to your pups, right now I have a lot of love to give your baby. I do currently offer overnight services. If client wants dog to play in their personal yard I will follow the direction provided by the owner.

A little meet and greet beforehand would be great!

“Al was so great with sending updates on how Bear was doing throughout his stay. He got to play with a few other dogs and let out a lot of energy. Al cleaned up after Bear had a few accidents in the house and ensured us that he'd still be glad to take Bear again for the day, and communicated to us very honestly any issues that he had. I highly recommend!”

Throughout my career, I’ve been dedicated to providing top-tier care for both puppies and adult small breeds, helping them thrive in loving, healthy environments. I have worked extensively with a variety of small dog breeds, including Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, Yorkies, Shih Tzus, and Dachshunds. My experience spans everything from basic pet care and feeding to behavior management, training, and health monitoring.

With puppies, I focus on early socialization, potty training, and establishing consistent routines to set them up for a well-adjusted adulthood. With adult small dogs, I work on maintaining good health, managing behavioral issues, and fostering strong bonds between pet and owner. I’m particularly passionate about understanding the individual personalities of each dog, ensuring they receive personalized care that meets their specific needs. My extensive background in pet care has allowed me to not only enhance the lives of the dogs I care for but also provide valuable advice and support to their owners, helping them navigate the joys and challenges of dog ownership.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 and have an eight-year-old shih tzu in my family home in New Jersey that I am very close to and have trained and taken care of.

I live alone in a gated community that is very safe and in the medical center. My house is dogproofed, very clean, and very safe.

About: I’ve always taken care of animals my whole life. From dogs,cats,chickens to small critters. I love having fun with animals as of playing, walks and teaching new tricks!

I care for pets in my home like they are my own children. I love playing and spending time with pets and animals I love to spoil other people’s pets as they are my own I do have a closed in fence and is shaded so when pets are out there there is no problem with the sun.

About: MAGA? I am not the Rover for you. I have provided care to other people's pets for over 35 years. My experience includes dogs, cats, birds, fish, lizards, goats, and horses; often, this was for multiple-night stays when clients traveled for work or vacation. Back in Colorado, clients recommended me to their friends and coworkers to the point I sometimes had to decline a job so I was not double-booked. I have experience in providing medication to pets orally via pill and syringe, as well as via injection in the scruff of their neck. Sadly, with their consent, I took a client's dog for euthanasia while they were on vacation out of state. I have also had the pleasure of caring for a litter of newborn Huskies, one of whom spent 14 years with me. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️✊🏾 I am currently not working and actively seeking a job, now that we are settled in. I will always communicate with you about any changes that may affect my availability. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈✊🏾 We have a small, fenced yard. We live in a quiet neighborhood where people walk their dogs on leash, so your fur baby will get exercise and stim. We also like to visit off-leash dog parks.

“Absolutely delighted with the care my pitbull Tito received from Sophie! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From the moment Tito met her, he was all tail wags. She took him on multiple outdoor adventures, including a fantastic 1-hour hike, which I'm sure he thoroughly enjoyed. It's clear that she treated Tito like one of her own, allowing him to socialize and play with her dogs. The level of activity and exercise he got was impressive – he was happily exhausted and even took a nap as soon as we got home! Not only did she provide exceptional care, but she also shared valuable recommendations for the best treats and toys, showing her genuine dedication to the well-being of our furry friends. Tito can't wait for his next visit, and neither can I! Huge thanks to a dog sitter who goes above and beyond! ??”

About: My family always had dogs and cats. We bred weimaraners and also had springers. We lived in the country and had a large kennel and lake for the dogs to swim. My family belong to a dog club and field trialed their dogs. I'm retired and walk my own dog Louis 4 times a day. He is a Shorkie. I belong to a club 2 blocks away so spend my time there exercising and playing sports. A very friend dog neighborhood. I live in a condo and we have dog areas and a great neighborhood to walk dogs. I kennel my own dog when I'm out and at night.

About: Hello!!! My name is Ella and I’ve been pet sitting for two years :) I have several dogs who I have the privilege of taking care of on a regular basis and would be honored to care for yours as well! I was raised with a dog who is 12 years old and who I have always cared for with great love and attention. I love to play and run around with dogs, talk to them, cuddle with them, and go for long walks. Your dog and me are about to become best friends! I’m happy to host small dogs in my apartment, but always happy to, and usually prefer to stay in your home with your dog :) I am a graduate student studying opera at the Cleveland institute of music and will very happily make up songs for your dog LOL! I am a graduate student at the Cleveland institute of music and within my schedule have breaks and long blocks of time where I can go to hangout with, check in on, walk, and feed pets :) I’m almost always available to spend the night and take care of them in the morning before setting off for my day. The longest I would need to leave a dog alone would be 5-6 at most, but that would be rare. Most often, it would be 3-4 hours or less :) I always appreciate when pet parents create a list for me of things I need to know so I can continue to reference it throughout my time caring for their pet until I get to know the dog super well! I am careful to keep dangerous or toxic things off floors and out of reach, I ensure that small dogs have easy access to higher couches or beds (as long as pet parents allow this), I clean and refill their water bowl every morning and wash their food bowls. I will give your dog lots of love and cuddles and pets and attention and time outside and exercise and plenty of treats!
