“Christopher was wonderful! Responsive, came for a meet and greet on a flexible schedule and did so well with Zenni. Zenni has reactivity issues and Chris was patient with her, he clearly has a lot of experience. He quickly made her feel comfortable and was timely and communicative on his drop ins.”

“Jackie responded very quickly and took great care of our cats. One of them needed antibiotics for an upper respiratory infection but I had peace of mind that he was getting better since she sent report cards with photos with every visit.”

Gabriella W.

“My cat Talulah does not like many people (she runs from most), but I can see from the photos that she likes Pan. She feels comfortable enough to roll around on her back, showing off her fat belly. Pan is very reliable and I have confidence that Talulah is in good hands when I am away.”

Laura D.

“Super detailed reports were very appreciated during our busy trip! She also got Tito to play which isn’t easily done as a “stranger” to Tito. Would definitely recommend!”

Addie S.

“Mary is great. I’ve really enjoyed her updates on how my kitten is doing while I’m away. I get a text and pictures with each visit. Very comforting to know my kitten is in good, caring hands. 😃”

About: Hey there, I'm Emily! I've been around dogs since I was little, they've been in my family and I even trained our new puppy when I was in high school. I’ve volunteered in an animal shelter for 4 years. I’ve taken animal science classes and have learned animal CPR. I also know how to take care of reptiles as I have a few of my own! I also have experience with small mammals such as rabbits, ferrets, sugar gliders, mice, rats and more. Clients can count on me to feed, play with, and be attentive to your pets needs. I currently have a part-time job, so I have more time to look after your pet companions! I am available during the day Mon-Wed, and anytime after 6pm Thurs-Saturday. I have enough energy to play with your dog or cat! I have patience if they are skittish or need a little extra time near strangers. And if your pet companion has scales, I can feed them when they need it and look after its well being and needs.

“Sarah is great! My dog is a little nervous around new people but he took great to Sarah very quickly when they first met. Sarah shows up on time and my pup loves her high energy! Couldn’t ask for more!”

“Octavia saved us with a no-notice booking after one of our boys decided he would rather chase snowflakes instead of going "potty' before we had to leave for work lol. She was prompt with her response and was incredibly flexible. The boys also love her!”

“Audrey was amazing with my fur baby, Miley! She was so kind and patient. She took lots of photos and always communicated well during my trip away. I’m so thankful for Audrey’s help with Miley!”

“Marti took great care of my two kitties! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a drop in sitter. She was very communicative and helpful. I came home to two happy cat brothers😻”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds, including my own, since I could walk. I have a 2 year old lab and 14 year old lab, so I'm very good with both puppies and seniors! I'm currently working remote on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I'll have plenty of time to drop in and play. Once the school year starts, I'm a law student so I'll also have plenty of time outside of class! I can do whatever is needed to keep your pet safe and happy in your home, whether you have a fenced in yard or no yard at all.

“Angela was fantastic! She came over to meet us and our pets and exchange information prior to our weekend away. She followed our directions, spent quality time with our pets, gave lots of feedback (which is really important to us) and photos, and left the house in good condition. We will definitely be using her services again. Can't say enough good things about our experience!”

“Elizabeth is so friendly and reliable! It’s a comfort to know she’s the one visiting our kitties while we’re away and I’m so relieved when I see she’s available.”

About: I have over 20 years experience in paid animal care. From an early age, I have house and barn-sat for all types of animals, large and small. Most recently, I have been working as a farm manager. Proud owner/mom to a senior dog, two indoor cats, three farm cats, and a horse. I am currently changing careers, so while I wait for my new job to start I have lots of daytime availability. I know the peace of mind and comfort that a stop-in or a walk can provide to pets and owners alike. I’d like to use my free time to provide that. I pride myself on putting the animals in my care first. My goal is to keep as close to an owners routine as possible, while also making a trusting relationship of my own with the pets.

About: I've spent my entire life around German Shepherds, which has given me deep insight into dog behavior, training, and care. From energetic puppies to wise seniors, I’ve handled every stage of a dog’s life with patience, love, and experience. What sets me apart is my intuitive understanding of dogs’ needs and my calm, confident approach to care. I work during the day, but my schedule is flexible enough to provide consistent, reliable pet care. I make time in the mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins. If your pet needs midday attention, I can often adjust my work hours to accommodate their routine. I’m committed to making sure your pet feels cared for, safe, and loved. I would be thrilled to watch your pet overnight for extended periods of time as I live in an apartment complex that is very spacious, has wooded floors and has great walking spaces around. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, structured environment where pets feel secure and loved. I follow your pet’s routine closely—meals, walks, playtime, and any special needs—to keep things familiar and stress-free. In your home, I treat your space with the same respect and care I give your pet, maintaining a clean and secure environment. In my home, pets have access to safe indoor and outdoor spaces, plenty of attention, and zero overcrowding—I only take a limited number of pets at a time to ensure everyone gets the care they deserve. I also keep constant and open communication with regular updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is in trustworthy, caring hands. I also vacuum and clean floors regularly to ensure fur is kept off the common spaces! I'm very accommodating to any needs or special requests so please never hesitate to go the extra mile when discussing your pet's needs with me!

About: I have experience with caring for all types of dogs from puppies to elderly dogs! I am flexible and would love to help out with walks or dog sitting. I am currently at Case Western for medical school and am looking to make a little extra money. I am pretty flexible during the week. I am happy to help with taking your dog for a walk, watching he/she at your home, or playing with it outside, even in the cold!

About: I’ve been dog (and other pets) sitting for families in my neighborhood since middle school, and I’ve been around dogs my entire life—growing up with two of my own. Over the past two summers, I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare where I cared for pups of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some extra love and attention, I’m passionate about making sure every pet feels well cared for and happy while away from their owners. I’d love the opportunity to care for your cute pets! I’m currently studying for the MCAT and volunteering in the morning time about 10am-1pm. That being said, I have plenty of time throughout my day to take a study break and come play/walk your dogs :) I love spending time with dogs and always treat them with the same care and attention I’d give my own. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs—whether that means long walks, playtime, or just quiet company. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and relaxed while you’re away. I would love to provide a calm and loving environment that your dog can feel comfortable in.

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life, though I haven’t walked them solo yet. I’m a calm, compassionate sitter with experience caring for cats, exotic animals, and everything in between. As a vegan chef, I bring a nurturing, gentle presence to every pet I care for—treating them like family and always paying attention to their unique needs. I’m currently in between jobs, so my schedule is wide open! This means I can be flexible and available for last-minute bookings, extended stays, or extra attention when your pet needs it most. I’m happy to work around your needs and provide reliable, consistent care. I care for my friends’ pets in their homes, where their animals feel most comfortable and secure. I stick closely to their routines, keep their space clean, and make sure they feel loved and relaxed while their humans are away. I’m respectful, tidy, and always leave the home just as I found it—or better! Since my building doesn’t allow pets, I’m not able to host animals in my home, but I’m more than happy to come to yours and provide attentive, in-home care.
