“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”
“Michele saved my life, I always take my dog everywhere but for obvious reasons I couldn't go to Cedar Point. I contacted her and she quickly said yes. She walked her and took care of her until the afternoon. She sent me photos so I could check her status with my dog. Highly recommended. Thanks Michele.”
“We can't say enough about Margaret and the care she took of our beloved dog, Maisy. She sent many updates wih great pictures and we felt so comfortable that we had left our dog , for only the second time, in he care. Her dog and cat were also so welcoming to our dog which made her first experience with other pets a great one. We highly recommend Margaret to take wonderful care of your dog too.”
“I was a first time boarder and very worried about my rescue, very spoiled bichon poo, that only likes me. I took a chance on Annie and she was perfect! She was so patient with our boy. She sent me videos and photos during the 9 days and even made up the fresh chicken, kibble combo he eats. He loved her dog Cooper and I think really missed him when we got home. I will definitely be calling Annie again!”
“Booker had an awesome time with David and his family. We felt so comfortable leaving him and knew Booker would be well taken care of thanks to David. Highly recommend!”
“Lucy had such a wonderful stay with Jenni!! Jenni is so kind, caring, and accommodating. She provided a warm and cozy home and lots of extra attention. Jenni provided daily pictures of activities and walks. We could tell Lucy was well cared for. We are grateful to have found Jenni and to have had a happy place for Lucy to be while we were away!”
“After we had a meet and greet Lelo was excited to come back and stay for the week. Bridget and her family made Lelo feel at home and loved. Bridget has a large room, where the dogs are free to play. Plenty of water and toys. Lelo can't wait to come back and hang out with her boys.”
“Christiana was great! Our two dogs seemed to enjoy their time there & especially loved being able to run around in the backyard! She sent us pictures and updates throughout and was very responsive when I checked in with her!”
“I originally chose Michael because he was so responsive to my inquiries, and I was glad I did. He was very accommodating to my ever changing drop off and pick up times for boarding. Also, my dog is pretty wild and I told him I’d understand if she was too much of a handful, but he was not put off at all, and they both seemed to really enjoy each other. He took her for plenty of walks to make sure she got her energy out. Will gladly board with him again in the future!”

Owner is responsible for all veterinary costs and medical decisions. Aggression, biting, or repeated dangerous behavior may result in early pickup.
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, dogs, cats, and parrots were always members of the family. I also spent two years working at a pet hotel, caring for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs, including senior, sick, and reactive dogs. I adopted my own dog, Montgomery, when he was six years old, and he’s been my best friend ever since. We enjoy walks, car rides, and the occasional treat run. I have a fenced-in backyard and provide a safe, loving environment where your pet will be treated like family. Whether your dog prefers playtime, cuddles, or a quiet place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and potty breaks throughout the day. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine with my own dog, Montgomery, so caring for your pet will fit naturally into my schedule. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, or simply having someone nearby, they’ll have company and care throughout the day. I have a fenced-in backyard and work from home, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and outdoor time. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and treat them like family.
“Stacie and Doug are great with my pug Homer and it makes me feel better dropping him off that they will take care of him and love him just like I do while I am gone!”
“I am so pleased with my dog sitting experience with Karin! We were really comfortable during the meet and greet. Karin took the time to ask questions about Sonnie, and Sonnie and Chubb interacted and played like they had already met. This was my first time leaving Sonnie with her, and 2 minutes after I left she sent me a note and picture, putting me at ease immediately. She communicated and sent pictures a few times a day. She goes above and beyond and I will definitely use her services again (if/when she is available)!”
“From the moment I met Barbara I knew my pet would be safe with her. Skai took to her right away. Her home was peaceful and welcoming. Barbara kept me updated- assuring me our dog was doing well. I will definitely use her services again.”
“The perfect dog sitters. I was skeptical of the app and leaving my pup for the first time but Kevin and Roselie were amazing. Duke was well taken care of and I even got picture updates throughout the day. Duke loved them and they loved Duke. Would definitely board with them again!! Such a nice family.”
“Ralph was amazing, he accommodated our girls and treated them as if they were his own. He ensured that they were the only clients he had during their stay to make sure they were comfortable. He sent so many photos and made sure that we knew that were well cared for during their first stay with him. There was no doubt. Our large breed is shy and after our first meet and greet, she warmed up to Ralph so easily and she does that with no one. He has a way with animals that makes them feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Ralph but I would like to be able to book him in the future 😉”

“Shadia is very attentive and highly communicative! I left home knowing my cats were in excellent hands! She sent daily photos and kept us updated. She’s punctual, reliable and also thinks about the little things I never thought to ask about. She made our short vacation stress free!”
“Kaleigh was great taking care of my 2 kittens while I was away. This was my first time being away since adopting them and she was very good to check after them! I highly recommend!!”

“Casey was great visiting my two cats. I appreciated that he took the time to draw out my shy cat. He was also a pleasure to communicate with and was very reliable and attentive to details. I will definitely call on him again.”
“Brittany was great at communicating with me, especially because my cat is antisocial. I didn’t anticipate Brittany seeing her so she let me know that the food and water were being consumed and she was using the litter box. It made my travels much easier! I’d book with Brittany again.”

“Sharon did an excellent job watching my cats over the Thanksgiving holiday while I was out of town. The cats loved her and the literbox and food was well taken care of.”
About: I own two cats myself, Milo and Lee! They are my absolute world and they have made my love for cats grow 100x more. Lee was a rescue who came up to my doorstep at just 4 weeks old, so I learned all about medications and special care for every kind of kitty.

I love them all the same and will do my part in making sure your cat is comfortable, as well as their owner!

“We highly recommend, Kayla! We recently adopted our pup from a shelter and wanted to make sure he was in someone’s home while traveling to avoid any more trauma and she did a great job making sure he was comfortable. The second time we dropped him off he went right in! Our boy loved Kayla and we will definitely use her again. She is excellent with communication and you can tell she truly loves dogs. Thank you for providing a great environment for Arrow!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. My life has been enriched by caring for kittens, puppies, adults, and seniors. I’ve given pills and eye drops to both cats and dogs. I love playing with cats and dogs and seeing them happy! It would be an honor to care for your pet. I’m the owner/operator of a new pet transportation business and have taken care of puppies during 200+ mile trips. This includes giving them water and food, cleaning them and their crate up (if they got carsick ☹️), sitting with them on breaks while they roamed the back of my SUV, and snuggles. I am excited to take care of fur babies at your home or mine! I have two cats of my own, a calico (7 yrs old) and a Siamese mix (6 yrs old), and they are amazing! 😻 I have a fenced in backyard and swimming pool (which can also be fenced off if desired by pet parent). I can feed, water, do short walks, and give medicine or eye drops (to compliant pets). I have 2 cats and am happy to provide care to cat friendly dogs at my home or I can come to yours. I’m available M-F 8-4 and for overnight stays.

Just send me a message — I’d love to care for your pup. 🐶💛 I have a fenced yard and one dog of almost 2 years old, your dog is free to walk around the inside house most of the day.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own, so caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur babies because I would only want the absolute best care for mine. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, walks, crate routines, playtime, and of course plenty of cuddles. Living with both dogs and cats has also helped me become very attentive to animal behavior and body language, which allows me to keep pets safe, calm, and happy in my care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure owners feel comfortable with regular updates and photos. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life since I have two dogs and two cats of my own. My day naturally revolves around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure my pets are happy and comfortable. I do work full time, but my job is very flexible. When I’m booked for pet sitting, I’m able to adjust my schedule or take time off to make sure I can fully focus on the pets in my care. I prioritize reliability and planning so every pet gets the attention and consistency they deserve. My home is clean, pet-safe, and thoughtfully set up to create a calm environment. I remove any hazards, keep floors clear, secure doors and gates, and ensure all pets are supervised at all times. I follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise, and playtime — so they feel right at home. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your furry family members. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and communicative. I provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet loves active play, cozy naps, or extra cuddles, I tailor my care to their personality and needs. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a safe, loving home away from home.
About: I cared for a wonderful Pomeranian for 17 years, giving me extensive experience with small breeds and senior dogs. For the past two years, I’ve also been dog sitting a friend’s Maltipoo, who stays with me for extended periods. These experiences have strengthened my ability to provide patient, attentive, and reliable care for dogs of all ages and personalities. When caring for any pet, their needs are always my top priority. I’m home often, which means every pet in my care receives plenty of loving attention, along with frequent bathroom breaks and walks throughout the day. Your pet will always feel cared for, comfortable, and never overlooked. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where they can relax, play, and feel comfortable. Every pet receives individual attention, plenty of affection, and care tailored to their needs so they feel happy and secure while in my care.
“Hong did a fabulous job taking care of Rover. He seemed like he did not want to leave her house when I picked him up. She took a ton of pictures so that I was able to see how much fun he was having during his stay. I will definitely be letting Rover stay with Hong again soon.”
“She was so wonderful to have as a daycare watcher for my dog. My dog was tuckered out and he was so happy. She sent me photos and a video. I felt 100% confident with my dog being in her care. Her girls also loved having my dog around. I truly wish I could have stayed in the area for another day so they could watch him and he could play with them.”
About: I've owned and cared for a lot of different animals since I was 7, ferrets, rats, mice, fish, dogs, cats. I have senior animal care experience, and experience giving animals medication on a schedule. I've had my own dog Pinky since she was a puppy, so I'm sure I can handle any rambunctious pups! I have some cat stuff, even though I don't own a cat. I have a cat tree, scratching posts, cat toys. I'm a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to care for your beloved pets! I'm available for you to drop off/pick up your pets on weekends and weekdays from 8am - 10pm I have a Large fenced in back yard, and plenty of time to take dogs on walks. I have a small 5lbs Chihuahua named Pinky, she likes cats and medium to small dogs (big dogs make her a little nervous, but we are working on that). Pinky is crate trained, so if your fur baby is crate trained I'll have no problem letting them out in the morning, and putting them in at night. If you have a senior animal, or an animal that needs medication, let me know all of the care details, so I can keep them on schedule and keep them comfortable and cared for!
“This was Luna’s first time with Megan, and I couldn’t be happier with how it went. She was welcomed with warmth and treated like family in a cozy home setting. The photo update was very reassuring, and she came home tired and happy. So grateful to have found such a loving place for her!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tom and Tolley (and their sweet and kind children) provided for Rudy! From the start, communication was excellent—they kept me updated and made me feel totally at ease. They have a great backyard that gave Rudy plenty of room to play and burn off energy. It’s such a relief to know Rudy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Tom and Tolley!”
“Britanny was awesome! She was able to pick up and drop off our puppy with excellent timing and care, sent us many great pictures throughout our puppies stay and our puppy seemed very happy with his time spent with Britanny and her family and he is excited to stay with her again in the future!

“Amanda communicates to me with our dog’s behavior and makes me feel confident that our dog is happy. Would recommend her to anyone needing care for any dog big or small, young or mature.”
“Shadia is great! Shadia is quick to respond to a request for a dog walk, shows up on time, can handle my very old hearing impaired dog, and follows my overly detailed instructions! 😂”
“Kaleigh was an amazing sitter for our dog! She offered a meet and greet prior since it was our first time booking so that everyone was comfortable. She was punctual, attentive, and made sure to communicate so we knew exactly what was going on and when. We will definitely be using her again! 100% recommend her for your pets 🫶🏼”
“Marissa is awesome! She has been walking Lilly for over a week now, and I couldn't be happier. She is dependable, always comes in the time frame I ask, and I feel that she cares about my dog. She always gives me updates in addition to the card that Rover gives you. As a dog trainer myself, I have met several dog walkers who don't actually know how to walk a dog. You can rest assured that Marissa will properly walk your dog. I highly recommend that if you need a dog walker to look no further than Marissa.”
About: My family has always had dogs and cats. From shih tzu to pitties to huskies to corgis to bulldogs, I've trained and handled a lot of pups! Additionally I've volunteered walking dogs and fostered animals for the Friendship APL since I was 11. My neighbors have even had me take care of their cats for weeks at a time. I am a stay-at-home animal parent so I'm free throughout the day and week to take care of and spend time with your lovely pet(s)! My experience with various dogs and cats makes me versatile. A young pup that needs training? A working dog that loves their long walks? An old cat that rather just snuggle up? I can cover it all.
“Extremely reliable, communicative, and the dogs absolutely love him—we couldn’t ask for a better daily visit than our walks with CJ! He provides so much peace of mind, knowing my dogs are being well cared for when I can’t be there. The adorable photo updates are always a joy, and it’s clear that he puts a lot of effort into building relationships with his clients—human and furry friends alike.”

About: I have been rescuing cats and other animals for over 15 years and work with my neighbors to try and find homes for them. We have always had dogs and cats. I love animals and have lots of love and attention to give! Since my husband passed away in 2010, I have spent time traveling and I have time on my hands to work on my garden and house and read. I love the company of animals and I feel they like me too! I am a very organized person and try to provide a sense of a schedule for the pets as well. I think it helps everyone to be flexible but not in the areas that matter like going outside and the feeding schedules! No pitbulls, and no mixed breeds with pitbulls please. I’m currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time for your pets! I provide a loving, nurturing environment. I can take your pet after 2 pm! I have a fenced in back yard.

About: A little about me! I have been dog sitting for over four years and truly enjoy caring for animals. My professional background includes working with children through the Boys & Girls Club of America in both after-school and summer programs, as well as working in senior assisted living communities, where I currently work full-time. I also earned my esthetician license, but I continue working in assisted living because I love building relationships and caring for others. Outside of my full-time career, pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy. I’ve always been an animal lover and have a soft spot for both dogs and cats, which I could never choose a favorite! I currently provide pet care for friends, family, coworkers, and referrals through mutual connections. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets when you’re away. My goal is to make both you and your pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. You can also expect plenty of photos, videos, and updates while you’re away. I believe staying connected with your pet brings peace of mind and helps you enjoy your time away worry free!! I currently work everyday until 2 pm except Wednesdays and Fridays I am off and work every other weekend. However I still am available everyday for house sitting. I never leave the animals longer than 8 hours! I strive to maintain your pet’s regular routine as closely as possible. Feeding times are scheduled according to your preferences, though there may occasionally be slight adjustments based on my work schedule. I make it a priority to keep pets active, engaged, and happy through playtime, walks, and other activities. My goal is to provide a comfortable, familiar environment that helps your pet feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life! I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, and a chinchilla that I’ve taken care of. I currently have two German Shepherds and two cats! I will provide patient, personalized care and treat every pet like my own. I understand that every animal has different needs, routines, and personalities, so I will focus on making them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away! I am entering summer break and only have track practices, so I have a lot of available time to make visits! You can also reach out any time, even same-day messages! I have a large front and back yard, and the back is also fenced in for extra safety. My dogs at home are also friendly to have a pet friend! If needed, there are also plenty of rooms in my house to separate animals too.
About: I have been around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my routine. From a young age, I helped with feeding, walking, playtime, and daily care, which taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each animal’s unique personality. I carry that same level of attention and care into every pet I look after today. Right now, I have open availability to pet sit whenever I am needed and when my availability changes, I will change it on here immediately! I offer in-home pet sitting at my client’s house, which helps pets stay relaxed and comfortable in their own environment.

“After we had a meet and greet Lelo was excited to come back and stay for the week. Bridget and her family made Lelo feel at home and loved. Bridget has a large room, where the dogs are free to play. Plenty of water and toys. Lelo can't wait to come back and hang out with her boys.”
“Christiana was great! Our two dogs seemed to enjoy their time there & especially loved being able to run around in the backyard! She sent us pictures and updates throughout and was very responsive when I checked in with her!”
“I originally chose Michael because he was so responsive to my inquiries, and I was glad I did. He was very accommodating to my ever changing drop off and pick up times for boarding. Also, my dog is pretty wild and I told him I’d understand if she was too much of a handful, but he was not put off at all, and they both seemed to really enjoy each other. He took her for plenty of walks to make sure she got her energy out. Will gladly board with him again in the future!”
About: I have a 5-year-old chocolate Lab boy and a 4-year-old Maine Coon boy. They’re best buddies, super friendly, and always happy to make new friends!

My cat and dog are best friends, they’re very good boys and always welcoming others. Fenced yard with 0.6 acer backyard, so the dog friend can run and play outside.

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, dogs, cats, and parrots were always members of the family. I also spent two years working at a pet hotel, caring for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs, including senior, sick, and reactive dogs. I adopted my own dog, Montgomery, when he was six years old, and he’s been my best friend ever since. We enjoy walks, car rides, and the occasional treat run. I have a fenced-in backyard and provide a safe, loving environment where your pet will be treated like family. Whether your dog prefers playtime, cuddles, or a quiet place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and potty breaks throughout the day. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine with my own dog, Montgomery, so caring for your pet will fit naturally into my schedule. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, or simply having someone nearby, they’ll have company and care throughout the day. I have a fenced-in backyard and work from home, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and outdoor time. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and treat them like family.
“I am so pleased with my dog sitting experience with Karin! We were really comfortable during the meet and greet. Karin took the time to ask questions about Sonnie, and Sonnie and Chubb interacted and played like they had already met. This was my first time leaving Sonnie with her, and 2 minutes after I left she sent me a note and picture, putting me at ease immediately. She communicated and sent pictures a few times a day. She goes above and beyond and I will definitely use her services again (if/when she is available)!”
“The perfect dog sitters. I was skeptical of the app and leaving my pup for the first time but Kevin and Roselie were amazing. Duke was well taken care of and I even got picture updates throughout the day. Duke loved them and they loved Duke. Would definitely board with them again!! Such a nice family.”
“Ralph was amazing, he accommodated our girls and treated them as if they were his own. He ensured that they were the only clients he had during their stay to make sure they were comfortable. He sent so many photos and made sure that we knew that were well cared for during their first stay with him. There was no doubt. Our large breed is shy and after our first meet and greet, she warmed up to Ralph so easily and she does that with no one. He has a way with animals that makes them feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Ralph but I would like to be able to book him in the future 😉”
“Michelle was awesome for our giant furball / who otherwise is nervous of her own shadow (Jake, not Michelle)….we will definitely be booking again, as it was great comfort knowing Jake was in a “dog home” versus a kennel. Michelle watches several other very friendly dogs and Jake buddied up right away with all of them! The fenced in backyard was a great peace of mind as well! Thanks!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own, so caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur babies because I would only want the absolute best care for mine. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, walks, crate routines, playtime, and of course plenty of cuddles. Living with both dogs and cats has also helped me become very attentive to animal behavior and body language, which allows me to keep pets safe, calm, and happy in my care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure owners feel comfortable with regular updates and photos. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life since I have two dogs and two cats of my own. My day naturally revolves around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure my pets are happy and comfortable. I do work full time, but my job is very flexible. When I’m booked for pet sitting, I’m able to adjust my schedule or take time off to make sure I can fully focus on the pets in my care. I prioritize reliability and planning so every pet gets the attention and consistency they deserve. My home is clean, pet-safe, and thoughtfully set up to create a calm environment. I remove any hazards, keep floors clear, secure doors and gates, and ensure all pets are supervised at all times. I follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise, and playtime — so they feel right at home. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your furry family members. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and communicative. I provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet loves active play, cozy naps, or extra cuddles, I tailor my care to their personality and needs. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a safe, loving home away from home.
