Personalized care for your dog or cat - Youngstown

“Amazing pet sitter — highly recommended! She accommodated our last-minute request and took such great care of our puppy. Our puppy looked so happy, comfortable, and well taken care of the entire time. She was wonderful to work with, very caring, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Definitely an amazing sitter, and we would absolutely book with her again!”

“Oh, Robin is very good and easy to work with. She sent us a picture of Baby while we were gone. When my husband picked up our dog, he received a report on how she was during her stay. We will definitely use Robin again.”

About: I have had four plus fur babies as a part of my family for 35+ years ! I love them all as their individual personalities and needs as if they are my own ! They will always be safe, they will always be loved both individually and as a group ! I have trained my own my furry babies over the years ! They were all loving and accepting of all creatures and my babies were little ones ! The little ones get branded not so good but I see the best in them all and attend to their individual needs when they come into my home they become a member of my family and receive the love and attention they need !!! I am retired, therefore I am available 24/7 . I have the priveleage of being home to ensure that each sweetie that comes into my home is attended to both with love and any care they will require anywhere from young puppy to our senior babies who will require more attention in regards to medicine massages for their joints and simply love I have a fenced yard to accommodate small dogs I have one myself who is 7lbs. She is friendly to all new guests! And when I take her out to either potty or to just get free run exercise in my yard I stay with her. I do not leave her outside unattended for not even one second I interact and engage with her both indoors and outdoors with play and love !

About: What sets me apart is that caring for dogs isn’t just a job to me—it’s truly been my life for as long as I can remember. I have 4 years of professional experience as a veterinary technician, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’ve also bred French Bulldogs for 8 years, so I have extensive experience with puppies, including feeding, socialization, routines, and early training. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, high-energy dogs, and dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I can also help reinforce basic training and good manners while your pup is in my care. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own. With a lifetime of experience, professional veterinary knowledge, and a genuine love for dogs, I want every pup staying with me to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home. 🐾❤️ Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily schedule because I already spend most of my time at home caring for my own dogs and working part-time from my computer. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to maintain regular feeding, potty, medication, exercise, and rest routines while giving each pet the individualized care they need. 🐾 Safety, Trust & a Home Away From Home Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I have a secure, fenced in yard with separate fenced areas, which allows me to safely give dogs their own space when needed. I also have **my own crates available** if your pup is comfortable with crating, and I can easily separate visiting dogs from my own dogs whenever necessary. My dogs are very friendly and used to having other dogs around, but I always prioritize safety and supervision. I’m especially careful about **size and temperament differences. I keep larger dogs separated from smaller dogs when appropriate, so everyone can enjoy their stay safely and comfortably. With secure outdoor areas, multiple ways to separate dogs, and plenty of hands on supervision, I’ll treat your pup like one of my own while they’re here. ❤️🐶

“I ended up reaching out to Maggie for a day of boarding. We were traveling in her area, and I asked if she’d take care of my pup for a few hours while we went out for my birthday dinner. Sadly, we had a last minute emergency and didn’t end up using her services. That being said, she was very kind, communicative, and flexible. I appreciated the interaction immensely, and I would reach out again in a heartbeat if we lived in the area!”

“We have used Angela several times ... when we arrive, our two dogs bound out of our car and straight into her house ... Their actions speak louder than my words!”

About: Hey fur parents, I just wanted to come on here and provide a 5 star service to you and your fur baby! Here’s a little bit about me… I’ve pet sat, walked pets, administered medication to many pets that require it on a day to day basis (via orally and injection), and many drop-in visits for a little over 5 years now to highly anxious, aggressive, and elderly animals. I’ve also worked it the veterinary field assisting doctors to provide hands on care to your fur baby for a little over a year now. I’m also in with the AKC. I compete with dogs in conformation, agility, dock diving, scent work, and barn hunt etc. and have been doing that for about a year with all types of breeds and sizes. I have always had a special connection with dogs and all animals for that matter and enjoy every second I can get with any of them. I look forward to doing some pet sitting or walking for you and your fur baby! I work part-time at the veterinary clinic (2 times a week for 5 hours a day) which gives me plenty of time during the week to play with your precious fur baby! I’m also a college student who has recently switched to online classes giving me even more time with your pet! I have a fenced in yard for endless potty breaks and plenty of play area! I have two loving Labrador retriever’s dogs to bring your pet a buddy to play endless tug of war with or if your pet isn’t on the energetic side just a good ole snuggle buddy! 😁

“She did a great job with a last minute request. I’d used her again and definitely recommend her too.”

“Aaron went above and beyond for our kitty! She got sick just before we were scheduled to leave; he gave her medicine, and dealt with the unpleasant litter boxes that accompanied her illness. Thankfully that only lasted a few days. She is shy, and never let him get a good look at her, but he kept trying. Aaron is also an excellent communicator. He kept us apprised of her condition (as revealed by her litter boxes). We highly recommend Aaron and hope to have him as our sitter for the foreseeable future.”

About: I have owned a cat(s) since I was 4 years old and adore them. I was always the girl at the vet office that could handle the big, scary ones. I enjoy taking my cat for a walk, training him, and playing with him so he gets his exercise. I've worked professionally in cat care before and love how independent and lovable they can be when their owners are away, I just match their energy.

“Great first time experience. Thanks Sherri.”

“Heather was very friendly and conscientious. She was a wonderful sitter for our kitties.”

“What a wonderful experience! Robin put my mind at ease and was able to help out when my family had to come to town last minute. The property is dog heaven and there were other dogs for my puppy to play with! Very grateful for Robin!”

Francesca L.

“Lacy now has a home away from home thanks to Stephanie and Frisco. My girl has a little bit of separation anxiety, but she loved her time with Stephanie and Frisco. They spoiled her with treats and lots of walks, and I will definitely be using their services again.”

Trish H.

“She accepted a last minute day care request for my dogs when I overlooked something in my weekend trip plans. Then the dogs were exhausted and sleepy for the car ride home!! I can tell they had a good time”

“Her flexibility was so very important on this trip and she went with the flow of our revisions amazingly well. She's terrific and very loving to our dog Betsy who is deaf and 13 years old. Betsy was held and cuddled the entire stay. It's obvious that she's a committed and caring dog lover. What a treasure in these hills! Highly recommend her services to any and everyone considering her to care for your dog! You won't find better!”

About: I have 4 dogs and 2 cats of my own. My friends and family have trusted me for years to take care of their fur babies while on vacations/nights away for years. I work from home, so I’m available to give my attention to fur babies all throughout the day. Your animals would be free to play all day. Your pets would be with me all day whether it’s taking a nap in my office or running around in the back yard with new friends. We have a large fenced in yard for all to play and never leave them unsupervised.

About: Since I was 9 years old I have been fortunate to grow up in a household that has always included dogs. Throughout the years, we have cared for a diverse range of breeds, including Terriers, Boxers, and Mastiffs and I wouldn't have it any other way (except for maybe more dogs). I was raised to care for and love them like I would any family member. I have administered medication to not only my own animals, but to others as well. Not only that, I can perform hygiene tasks such as bathing, brushing, etc. I work remotely and have the flexibility to create my own schedule. This gives me plenty of time to spend with your pup while you're away! I have a fenced-in yard with ample amounts of running space. I have three sweet pups: a 13-year-old Westie, a 3-year-old Shepherd, and a yellow Lab who is less than a year old. They are happy to help keep your fur babies busy during playtime or snuggle next to them during nap time. If it's a pleasant day, we'll be outside playing in the yard or lounging in the shade. If not, there is plenty of room to entertain inside. We allow our dogs to relax on the furniture and welcome visitors to it as well; The couch is our favorite place to snuggle! I'm comfortable administering medication if needed. My senior boy is on oral medication; I've also administered medication to others in the past. I would love to love your sweet babe while you're away.

“Aaron was absolutely wonderful with our two girls!!!! And we appreciate all the pictures and updates while we were away as I am definitely one of those worry dog moms!!!! We definitely know he will continue to use him as one of our girls is very picky on who she will poop for!!!! If you need anyone he is definitely the one!!!!!”

About: I've taken care of animals my whole adult life but most recently my 2 senior dogs (brother and sister) passed away within 4 months of each other 💔 I miss loving on them but not ready for a full time commitment, so Rover seemed like the perfect answer! I will provide quality care for your pups and offer plenty of companionship and play time as well as walks and feeding and the normal care. It would be an honor to give your pups the attention and love they want! I work from home so they would have company almost continuously except when I'm out running errands. I have lots of dog toys and beds and blankets so they will always have a warm inviting spot to hang near me in my office while I work. Depending on your dogs needs, they will be walked and fed on their schedule and I can give meds as well if needed. We are super dog friendly in that they are allowed to roam freely and be on the furniture for snuggles if they want. If you have them crate trained then I will follow any crate rules as well. In your home, your rules apply!

About: I've taken care of animals since I was young, but especially since I got my own cat around seven years ago. I'm deeply passionate about animals and animal care, and absolutely adore being around pets of all shapes and sizes!! Additionally, I've worked as a veterinary assistant, so I have much experience with all different breeds and personalities! I'm currently between jobs otherwise, so I'm happy to be wherever, whenever! I'm happy to fit absolutely anyone into my schedule, whether on short notice or in advance. I follow instructions very dutifully and will attend to your pet exactly how you instruct me to. I love to take pictures and videos, so you'll get plenty of content of your fur baby while I'm caring for them!! I prioritize their safety above all else.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all shapes, breeds and sizes! I’ve also taken care of a plethora of other animals. I’m comfortable bathing, dogs, and the occasional cat. I’m currently in school online and am raising a toddler alongside my husband and family on the same property. I also have 2 dogs, 2 horses and a bunch of other little critters I take care of daily. We don’t have a super set schedule, but things always get done. Although, if I’m given a schedule I will follow it to a T! I can do whatever you/your pet is comfortable with, apart from off leash walks, because I cannot be held responsible for a dog not recalling. But whether that be crating while leaving them, taking them outside in a fenced yard, or taking them on leashed walks varying in length, I am ready to car for your pet!

About: I’ve always enjoyed being with dogs and cats more than people. I am a cat mom currently. I’ll always be reliable and responsible. I love doing it for the pets. I work part time but I make a sitting work anytime. My schedule is flexible as long as I know beforehand. I always want to make sure the pets are well looked after. I have an indoor cat that loves to go outside. I sit with him until he is ready to come inside. I never leave him unsupervised. I will always care and be responsible for any pets like their my own.

“So very thankful for Kathrine! She boarded our two fur babies for us on very short notice. She sent us pictures and updates daily. Would trust her with Lottie and Teddy anytime.”

Arra L.

“Angela took great care of our pups during their stay! She sent videos and pics throughout the day and we felt very confident leaving them with her. They are big dogs but she handled them well. She also came out prior to their stay to meet them so that they would recognize her when we dropped them off. Highly recommend!”

About: As someone who personally has an animal with special needs I understand the kind of care they need! I also have experience working with animals of all ages. Along with working with animals of all ages I have both volunteered and worked at a local Humane Society. Working there entailed feeding, cleaning, and providing medical care to both cats and dogs. As a student who only works a part time job I am back and forth between campus and my house all week. With an older cat I frequently drop by my house throughout the day to check on him. Because of this I would be able to provide the same care to your animals as well. I live in a quiet neighborhood near several large parks. Because of this I will be able to not only walk dogs in my neighborhood but take them to surrounding parks to walk and play! Along with taking dogs out my home is equipped with cat friendly furniture,scratchers and enrichment.

“We have used Angela several times ... when we arrive, our two dogs bound out of our car and straight into her house ... Their actions speak louder than my words!”

About: I’ve had every type of pet under the sun from dogs to cats to reptiles and love them all the same. Very experienced with all breeds and able to handle very large dogs / gentle with very small kittys. I am available 24/7 to meet the needs of our best friends. I treat animals like kids they deserve the world. Willing to help anytime. I live in a house with a decently large back yard, 2 dogs and 1 cat but enough space to keep animals separated if yours don’t get along with others. Easy paved walk or a simple mountain trail close If your dog requires more intense walks.
