Personalized care for your dog or cat - Glenville
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Glenville
“Kathy clearly loves dogs and is very careful to make sure she knows all the needs of your pup before you leave. She sent updates and photos that eased my worry about leaving my dog with a new sitter. Frances came home happy and tired! :)”
“Samantha was a kind and caring sitter! She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on how my puppy was doing. She also has 2 small and very well behaved pups and this was great for socialization. Very happy to leave my puppy with Samantha.”
“We’re really happy with Debra and how she handled everything for our dog while we were out of town. We arranged for a meetup before the stay to ensure this would be a good match. When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”
“Colleen was absolutely wonderful! She has a calm demeanor and was so loving to my Poppy while away for a week. I received daily updates and loved seeing through photos the bond Poppy and her lab, Peaches, developed. In fact, tonight a yellow lab appeared on the TV in an ad and Poppy went wild barking. I think she already misses her new friend and it has at even been 24 hours. I will most certainly use Colleen for future boarding.”
“Anna took such great care of my dogs. They’re both anxious but she made them feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and updates daily without me asking for them and I really appreciated that. I drove 30 min knowing they would be in good hands. I would def recommend Anna! Thanks so much! 🙏🏻”
“I found myself with an addition to our family when Lola was found sleeping on my porch for a few days. After two weeks of caring for her and with no luck in finding her owner. I had to make a choice of what to do with Lola during an upcoming spring break trip with my grandchildren, and family. Rover.com made the difference in surrendering my recuse when I met Andrea. From my initial contact with Andrea I was put at ease in leaving Lola in Andrea’s care. On the day I brought Lola to meet Andrea Lola’s separation anxiety was high when she thought she was being abandoned, but I know I was leaving Lola with the right person. During my trip Andrea’s messages and photos throughout the week allowed me to relax knowing all was well with Lola and enjoy my time with my family. When I returned to pick Lola up she had enjoyed a spa day, groomed and happy. Andrea’s home is Lola’s new home away from home. Andrea is Highly Recommended!!”
“I really appreciate Pat for taking very good care of lily during her stay. Appreciate receiving daily updates with pictures & videos. Will definitely get her service again in the future.”
“So friendly, accommodating and helped to stay in touch with my little girl while I was away on work travel! Their dog and my baby became great friends! A loving home and made me feel ok while away from my puppy! ❤️?”
“This was my 1st time boarding my dogs and I couldn’t have been happier with Kyle and his wife. I got daily updates and pictures. I could tell my babies were at ease from the very beginning and I have found my dog sitters!!!!!”
“Summer was an absolutely wonderful sitter for Tycho and Kepler! They stayed with her for 5 days and 4 nights, and we felt completely at ease the entire time. She sent multiple photos each day and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. It was clear from the start that Summer took the time to read our dogs’ Rover profiles. She came prepared with thoughtful questions at drop-off and even reached out when Kepler started chewing on a deer antler, just to double-check with us. That level of attentiveness meant a lot. Tycho and Kepler got tons of playtime with her own pets, including her dog Morty and her cats, and they clearly had a great time. As an added bonus, her son was incredibly sweet with our dogs and spent time cuddling with them, which made their stay even more special. We would absolutely book with Summer again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, communicative, and attentive sitter!”
“Tara and Peter are great dog sitters! I received pictures and update daily. The pups were treated like family pets. I would definitely leave my pups with them in the future.”
About: I have a variety of pet experience. Most notably with dogs, I have fostered over 13 dogs in the last several years through Kane's Mission. I am sure to give your dog personalized attention and love and care they deserve! We live in a great walkable community in Shaker Heights. We are happy to take your dog on walks and visits to the park, so they can have a nice vacation too! I can currently adapt to most pet care schedules.

I can also come to you reliably to let your dog out and given home play, social, and exercise time.
“Stephanie was awesome with my puppy and was very flexible with pick up times! He had the best time with her dogs and she made she he was comfortable the entire stay. I would highly recommend!”
“We had never left Kona overnight before...but she was so comfortable with Susan! And, Susan is an amazing photographer, as well. I absolutely loved getting all the photos! Thank you, Susan, for loving our Kona so much!”
“Angela was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our dog! From the moment we met her, we could tell she genuinely cares about animals. She was attentive, responsible, and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy and well cared for when we returned. Angela followed all of our instructions perfectly, including feeding instructions and walks. We will definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
“Pamela was great, she took my dog Pinky last minute and let her stay in her bed with her so she wouldn't have to interact with other dogs. On the last day that Pinky was with her, she had diarrhea all over her bedroom and all Pamela cared about was making sure Pinky was okay. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Bri I wanna thank you so much for your boarding service! You are God sent. You loved on my baby, kept me informed, sent pictures and treated him like your own. You took great care of my Brawny! I am looking forward to booking with you again! I appreciate you!!!”

“Gina is amazing! She took such good care of our needy little guy. She is so attentive and takes the best pictures! We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Sam was great! My cat can be a little fiesty and Sam was very patient with her and gained her trust. Her rover cards were always detailed and had plenty of pictures that made me feel so much better about leaving my fur baby for the weekend. 10/10 would recommend booking with Sam!”
“Thank you for always providing such great summaries of your visit with my cats. Between that and the pictures, I can rest assured they are well taken care of.”
“Charlotte was incredibly efficient, always arriving on time and following my instructions. Communication was a breeze; she kept me updated with photos and messages, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Most importantly, my dog absolutely loves her! He was happy and well cared for, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Alexis was amazing and the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were well taken care of, and they loved her! Can’t recommend Alexis enough!”
“Stephanie did a great job taking care of my two cats. I had a mishap where my flight got changed and she was really flexible with watching them for a few extra days! Will definitely be looking to book her again in the future!”
“Susana did a great job. It was a godsend that she was able to be flexible and adjust things last minute to help me. She was also very fast at responding and gave me great notes/photos at the check ins. Thank you!”
“Mary was amazing! She checked in on our two kittens while we were away for a week. We were quite anxious about leaving them and she gave us so much reassurance with lots of updates and photos. The cats were very fond of her and we would absolutely work with her again!”
“Octavia always provides great care for my kitty, great communication & lots of pictures and updates. I always feel reassured when Octavia is sitting for my kitty.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats for decades. Before I got my own cat, I took in stray cats and got them adopted. It was nothing fancy but I wanted to make sure they got off the streets and into loving homes. I also housed two pregnant cats and found homes for the kittens. Although I’m not expert I’m full of love and will treat your pets like they’re my own.
About: I'm just getting started taking care of pets professionally, but I've been looking after my friends and family's dogs since I was a kid. Looking forward to getting to know you and your four legged friends! I'm currently in grad school at the UofM, so my schedule is mostly dependent on when I have class. For the most part, I am available both weekdays and weekends. I am looking forward to visiting your pets in your home and treating that space with the respect it deserves! If you have any questions about my pet-sitring philosophy, don't hesitate to ask!
About: I have two cats of my own that are my only pets. I have experience from other jobs and friends in my life how to bathe, apply ointment, give pills and give liquid meds
“Nealey was great with our cat Buster! She was very responsive, followed all instructions, and made sure he got lots of love and play time. Would definitely have her watch our cat again. :)”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Glenville
About: **Serious Inquiries Only *** With over 10 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I have developed a deep understanding and passion for working with small dog breeds and puppies. 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. I specialize in the unique needs of small dogs, including their dietary requirements, exercise routines, and socialization skills. My approach is centered around building trust and positive relationships with the pets in my care. 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. I am dedicated to provide my full attention to your pup throughout their entire stay! If it’s boarding or just a fun day at doggy day camp I can ensure your pup will have a great time! I have a fenced in back yard , plenty of toys and activities to keep your pup busy! My home has central air conditioning for hot summer days . I also have a small male shitzu to keep your pup company during their stay .
“Pam and Evan were so kind to help with watching our mini schnauzer for the day. We are from out of town and have they were able to keep her while we were sightseeing. Thank you both!”
“Kyle was absolutely wonderful! He helped me and my family out in a pinch!! He treated our dogs like his own and was an amazing communicator! He went out of his way to pick up our girls and sent many pictures. Highly recommend and we will use him again! 😊”
“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! ??”
“This was Susan's first time taking care of Coco and I could not have been happier. She sent many videos and photos to keep me apprised of Coco's progress throughout the day. Coco is learning how to interact with other dogs and was a little skittish with Susan's dog when we arrived and Susan was very patient. I felt like Susan treated Coco like she was her own and that gave me so much comfort. I am very pleased and will look forward to entrusting Susan with Coco's care in the future!”
“This was the first time that we rover with Albert and the experience was extremely good. Our dog was happy and it was clear that he had a very good day playing with Albert’s dogs. I definitely recommend Albert and I will for sure book his services again.”

“Seymour lives his best life while staying with Tongyezhi and her family. It's tough to give Seymour the attention he deserves at home with two toddlers running around so it is a major relief to be able to have him do daycare where he can have the extra fun he is missing at home.”
About: Dogs have always been part of my life and my family. I am retired now, so my schedule is very flexible. My husband and I lead an active lifestyle and will make sure your dog is taken care of like family. We have a large backyard with access from a doggy door. We will keep you posted with photos and feedback on a daily basis. We have raised all breeds over our years as dog owners and have been blessed with wonderful senior rescues. Since my husband and I are both retired we are very flexible in our schedules and should be able to accommodate any timeframe that is needed. Our backyard is spacious and fenced in. There is access through a doggy door if that is negotiable for your dog. It can also be blocked if if required. We are very close to a beautiful park, which is wonderful for some nice long walks. We recently lost our 10 year old bull terrier to cancer and so our house feels empty without our beloved Walter. We will make sure your furry friend feels like family.
“Mary is so kind and truly loves animals. She was so kind and patient with my little puppy. She kept me updated throughout the day to ease my anxiety of leaving my dog for the first time. She also is very flexible in her schedule which is exactly what I was looking for. Excited to have Mary watch her again!”
About: Hello 👋 Thank you for checking out my profile. My name is Matt. My partner Kim and I have been taking care of dogs and cats on Rover for five years now. We have 2 dogs of our own that we love very much named Baxter and Archie. We will take care of your pup like our own, because every pup deserves a lot of love. I offer boarding services for dogs in the Greater Cleveland Area and local drop-in/walking services for any kind of pet in Tremont. For boardings: We can board one large dog, or 2 medium sized dogs at a time. I accept all clients from the greater Cleveland area. For walks and drop ins: I offer walks & drop-ins for the Tremont area. Think biking distance from Lucky's Cafe. My daily availability fluctuates, but as of June 2026 I am available before 6:30 AM and after 4 PM most days. Please contact me for scheduling! For boardings: I offer lots of walks, lots of treats, and a loving home. Please let me know if there is something I can do to customize my care for your pooches safety and comfort. For Walks/Drop-Ins: I take photos and send a little story about how your pups day/walk went. Your pets health and safety is always my number one priority. I prefer spending time with them indoors during extreme cold or heat.
“Super easy to get along with. My dog loved being able to go outside and run around and play with their dogs. They sent a lot of pictures and I know my dog had a great time!! Will love to use them again!”
“Erica is so patient, easy to coordinate with, and goes above and beyond to make sure Lucky has a fun day! She takes photos to send which makes me feel reassured he had a good day with her! thanks for everything! I appreciate it and will reach back out soon!!”
“Austin saved the day, again. We had church and a birthday celebration to attend, and Lewey was kept in Austin’s care for the day. Austin sent us pictures, and we could tell Lewey had a great time. So thankful for the services offered. Lewey was in a safe environment which made it easy for us to enjoy our time.”
About: I have a high-energy dog that has prepared me in all aspects of pet care! I am well-versed in on- and off-leash exercise and have plenty of ideas for indoor enrichment activities. Having raised my own dog from 6 weeks old, I’m familiar with all of the accidents that can happen when pets are home alone. I’ve also cared for elderly and medically-complex dogs. I work remotely during the school year and have summers off. My work is in pacific time, giving me plenty of time in the morning to take your pet on a walk, play outside, or just keep them company. Of course, when I’m off in the summer, I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets! I am open to the safety, trust, and environment guidelines set by each pet owner. As the owner of a needy dog, I understand that each family has different preferences for keeping their home and pets safe!
About: Growing up we always had a family dog. We had Schnauzers (twice), a Cocker Spanial, a Wire Fox Terrier and a Springer Spaniel. My favorite was probably the Springer, as she loved to play fetch for hours. While I don't have professional (getting paid) experience, I do occasionally dog sit for a neighbor, in fact doing so for a week this coming March (2020). Looking forward to getting one of my one some day. Newly retired, I didn't want to have a dog while working full time and didn't want to leave the dog alone all day. Looking forward to meeting some pups before getting a dog of my own. I have plenty of free time now so I am very flexible. I currently have 2 cats and am availabe for cat sitting also. I'm retired so I have plenty of free time for taking care of your pets. I'm available for frequent walks and quality time with your pet. I have fenced in back yard. I have Springer Spaniel that I usually walk 3 times a day. I also have an older cat that avoids the Springer!

My background includes: Professional Care: Working at a professional dog kennel and daycare facility. Specialized Training: Volunteer Service Dog Trainer through 4 Paws for Ability. Rescue Work: Volunteer with Golden Retriever Rescue and Needy Dog Adoption. From high-energy pups to gentle seniors, and every breed in between, I’m ready to give your dog the best part of their day! Have a question or want to chat about boarding? Reach out! If I’m not the right fit or available, I’m happy to point you toward a resource or community contact who can help. Can't wait to meet your pup! Currently I am working part time but willing to make necessary changes to fit your schedule for your dog! Usually only 3 Days a week in the mornings but of course that can change to fit you and your pup as long as I’m given two weeks notice in advance. Currently I am not able to board any dogs but I know various parks and walking trails to take the dogs. My dog isn’t comfortable with other dogs currently just because she is so old.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for family, friends, and neighbors since I was 11 from playtime and walking to overnight stays! I also have experience fostering for the APL. I am a recent grad in the job market so my availability is very open! I’m pretty much available everyday of the week unless stated otherwise. My family cats have their own playroom and plenty of toys including enrichment puzzles. I always follow my client’s instructions and want your pet(s) to feel safe and have fun!
“Chloe came through super last minute for me to walk my dog! Very reliable, experienced, and stayed in contact with me the entire time! She also sent photos which I really appreciated. This was my first time using rover and my dog’s first babysitter! Thanks for making our experience so great! You are great at what you do!!! 🐶🫶🏻🩵”
“Charlotte came to walk my dog three times when my partner was a patient at Cleveland Clinic and I was staying at a hotel nearby. She dealt with some logistical difficulties with the hotel and took care of Ahsoka. She got Ahsoka some exercise and dealt with her reactivity. Her communication was excellent and I could tell Ahsoka had been well-cared for.”
“Emily is very good with my two dogs Alfie and Beanie. They are always happy to see her and go on their walks. She always arrives on time and is very easy and nice to deal with. I plan to continue having her walk my pups and hope it's working out well for her as well.”
“Emily is friendly, kind and attentive, and I trust her to take great care of my Artie. She was even kind enough to bring my packages inside when she came over to walk him. I highly recommend booking with Emily.”
“I booked Octavia for a last minute walk with my pup and everything was fantastic! We had good communication, she was on time, and she gave a great summary at the end of the walk. I’m adding her to my roster of walkers ASAP.”
“Gina has been helping exercise my border collie through fetch and walks and has been fantastic with her! Extremely responsive, flexible, and enthusiastic about helping out.”
About: I am a huge animal lover; I’ve had pets my whole life and know how much a routine matters to them, especially during a stressful time apart from their family. I’ve cared for a diabetic dog, giving insulin shots three times a day for years, and also babysat a diabetic cat — so I’m comfortable with medication schedules and special-needs care. I’m an active person who treats every fur baby like they are my best friend because that’s what they deserve! I have a flexible schedule and work from home Mondays and Fridays, so those days are perfect for midday walks or potty breaks — I can easily fit your pup into my schedule without rushing. On weekends, I’m open to house sitting or home visits, giving your pet consistent, attentive care while you’re away. I don’t board pets at my own home, so all care happens at your house, keeping your pet in their familiar, comfortable environment. During home visits or house sits, I follow your routines closely for feeding, walks, and medication, and I’m experienced with special and elder pet needs. I treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.
About: Hi, My most recent experience has been long term care for friends and families dogs. I offer to walk dogs multiple times a day, as well as check in multiple times a day. I also offer personalized behavioral training a recommendations. I have particular experience with behavioral issues like separation anxiety and difficulties walking on a leash and getting overwhelmed with various stimuli. Previously, I fostered large dogs with behavioral issues for the SPCA for 5 years. I have experience with dogs that are reactive, anxiety ridden and once with medical issues. I fostered the dogs until the issues are either managed or resolved and they are ready for adoption. I have experience primarily with large dogs. I am used to long walks and hikes with dogs. I primarily keeps dogs on leash but in the right circumstances I will let them off leash. However, I am very picky. I am open to walking l, check-ins and boarding. I’m in class a few times a month and working 1-2 days a week so I have times of availability to care for your pup. Thank you for considering me, Celine I’m a graduate student with minimal in class time so I have plenty of time to play and cuddle your pup. I love long walks and play time. I enjoy finding engaging activities that keep them mentally stimulated. I would like to get a sense of your pup and aspects of their care that are most important to you. This could be frequency of walking, caring for behavioral issues or simply giving them lots of cuddles. I can be in your hole where your pup is most comfortable or bring them to mine.

About: My family has had cats since I was 13 years old and we’ve fostered and found homes for many strays. I adopted my dog when she was 8 weeks old, 8 years ago. I understand the deep love and concern all pet parents have for their babies because I see Juju as my child. I would love to help provide trustworthy and compassionate care for your pets! I also rely on Rover when I’m at work 3 days a week and I’d love to spend my days off helping other pet parents and animals feel safe and supported. I only work three days a week so I have a lot of flexibility. I’m off every other weekend so I have some weekend availability too. I’m happy to feed, walk, play with, cuddle, and care for your pet in any way that you need! I’m also comfortable with administering medication.
“Andrea is one of a kind ! She makes you feel at ease while she is taking care of your fur baby. She goes above and beyond to make sure she knows what your animals personality and needs are . My pup absolutely adores her and looks forward to seeing her every week !”
About: I currently have two cats who are well taken care of and who I have administered medications to and cleaned up after. I also grew up around dogs and am well versed with handling dogs of different temperaments. I work full time but I am very free on the weekends and after work to care for pets. I am also free around lunch times on Monday and Friday. I am adept at handling cats and dogs in difficult situations. For dogs, I would put them in their crate for a cool down time. For cats, I usually prefer to put them in time out in a room or disengage ntil they are able to not be as overstimulated. I also like to re-direct energy using play so pets do not feel punished for their energy.
About: I've been around animals my entire life! My family has had pets for as long as I can remember—from senior golden retrievers to brand new kittens—and I have been pet sitting for friends and family since I was back in high school. I even now have two kitties of my own! When I take care of your pets, I'll treat them with the same care and affection I do my own. I've taken care of animals with behavioral struggles and physical health troubles within my own family and it has given me important experience to be able to take the best care of your pets, no matter what their unique circumstances. I am available weekends and throughout most work weeks and my university schedule allows for the flexibility I need to meet your pets needs whenever works best for them! I am Red Cross Certified in Cat and Dog First Aid. I also have experience caring for both senior dogs and puppies/kittens that are under a year old, as well as experience administering various oral medications and inhalers to dogs and cats. I also have experience with dogs that require a muzzle, for any reason.
“Thanks for always taking such good care of Walter! He seems to enjoy his time with you and I love the information you give us. You also take the best pictures of Walter ever!!”
About: Hello! My name is Ella and I’m 23 years old and I am a student at the Cleveland institute of music studying opera. Singing and animals are my two greatest passions in life! I grew up with a Bichon who is now 12 years old and living with my mom in Columbus Ohio. Taking care of him throughout my life has been one of my greatest blessings and I’ve had the joy of extending my love for him to dozens of dogs and cats across the Cleveland area over the past 6 years! I follow a vegan diet and am passionate about the color yellow and I adore movies (especially horror!). All my friends love meeting and playing with any animals I care for (with pet parent permission of course!) so no matter what, I (or me AND my friends) will give your baby(s) a most fun and special time! 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!
About: I have been pet sitting and dog walking since before I can remember. My family members were all allergic to animals so I was never able to have my own to love and care for. Pet sitting and dog walking was a way to get my animal “fix” without causing any allergic reactions in our household! I also ride horses and have owned and cared for many horses over the past ten years. Currently, I am taking a break from owning a horse but still get to ride occasionally! I do have references available if need be and would be happy to share to whomever is interested. I now have my own dog, Zuri, I rescued her in October 2020! She is the best girl ever and loves her life! I also have fostered for a few different organizations so am well versed in how each dog is different. I love all animals and would love any opportunity to give yours love when you aren’t available to do so! I work from home 4 days a week! So I am able to snuggle and play with the dogs all day! We do several walks a day & utilize enrichment toys. I live in an apartment, it’s big enough to host Zuri and one other dog comfortably. There are a few flights of stairs so would want to make sure your dog is comfortable with that.

“We’re really happy with Debra and how she handled everything for our dog while we were out of town. We arranged for a meetup before the stay to ensure this would be a good match. When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”
“Colleen was absolutely wonderful! She has a calm demeanor and was so loving to my Poppy while away for a week. I received daily updates and loved seeing through photos the bond Poppy and her lab, Peaches, developed. In fact, tonight a yellow lab appeared on the TV in an ad and Poppy went wild barking. I think she already misses her new friend and it has at even been 24 hours. I will most certainly use Colleen for future boarding.”
“Anna took such great care of my dogs. They’re both anxious but she made them feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and updates daily without me asking for them and I really appreciated that. I drove 30 min knowing they would be in good hands. I would def recommend Anna! Thanks so much! 🙏🏻”
“This was my 1st time boarding my dogs and I couldn’t have been happier with Kyle and his wife. I got daily updates and pictures. I could tell my babies were at ease from the very beginning and I have found my dog sitters!!!!!”
“Tara and Peter are great dog sitters! I received pictures and update daily. The pups were treated like family pets. I would definitely leave my pups with them in the future.”
About: I have a variety of pet experience. Most notably with dogs, I have fostered over 13 dogs in the last several years through Kane's Mission. I am sure to give your dog personalized attention and love and care they deserve! We live in a great walkable community in Shaker Heights. We are happy to take your dog on walks and visits to the park, so they can have a nice vacation too! I can currently adapt to most pet care schedules. I have a flexible schedule from home, and I am here to offer a seamless transition. I have fenced in yard with room to romp around, and I am located in a great walking community with a park nearby. I can also come to you reliably to let your dog out and given home play, social, and exercise time.
“Stephanie was awesome with my puppy and was very flexible with pick up times! He had the best time with her dogs and she made she he was comfortable the entire stay. I would highly recommend!”
“Angela was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our dog! From the moment we met her, we could tell she genuinely cares about animals. She was attentive, responsible, and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy and well cared for when we returned. Angela followed all of our instructions perfectly, including feeding instructions and walks. We will definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
“Takia hosted my sheepadoodle during some late planned holiday travel. She was very accommodating as we feed a raw diet to my dog, and her communication and updates were great during my time away.”
About: I’ve worked with many breeds and temperaments of dogs over the years and now nothing surprises me. Where you need drop-ins, overnight stays, extended boarding, or a brief walk, I’m always available. Proceed with caution, belly rubbing conditions apply. I currently work part-time during the day and have usually free evenings. I go on early walks/runs and having a sidekick would improve my community experience. My schedule also allows sufficient breaks to attend to your fur babies’ needs. I have a very secure apartment with multiple key-required entrances and locked apartments. It’s a full house of pet love with my room mates also available to play. There is enough play pen space for running around or just lounging strictly within the apartment, with controlled outdoor activities.
“Brendan and Sarah were wonderful. They boarded Gracie with little notice, sent lots of photos, and Gracie had such a good time she didn’t want to leave.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since i was a little girl, they’re an important part of my life. Every dog that visits will receive a bath if requested! Very good with senior pups! I have a very flexible work, as well as my husbands schedule so always there to do potty breaks and just give some love and attention! I have one dog right now, he’s a 6 year old lab. He’s pretty chill, likes to play & would love to have a buddy to play with!
“Kimberly was great with my dog. I got updates daily with pictures. I can tell when my dog is stressed, and she didn’t appear stressed at all. All my instructions were followed, and medications given. I will use Kimberly again!”
“Seymour is my shadow at home and we were nervous how he would do with the separation anxiety of a week away from us. He had an absolute BLAST staying with Tongyezhi and her family. He got walks, romps in the fenced in back yard and plenty of snuggle time. We got lots of incredible pictures which was great peace of mind knowing we didn't have to worry about him missing home. Tongyezhi is the absolute best and we will always go to her for any future boarding.”
“I was extremely nervous about leaving my anxious dog for the first time when I had to go away for five days for my brother's wedding. But it turned out that I had absolutelynothing to worry about because Rachel was seriously so amazing. She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire time I was away, which immediately put me at ease. And she handled Bailey with so much patience and care that he quickly became comfortable with her. She made a real effort to keep him engaged and active, and it was clear she took the time to get to know his personality and adjust to what he needed in the moment. I especially appreciated that she didn’t just “watch” him—she incorporated him into her daily routine, keeping him busy and comforted. I came back to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I sort of got the feeling he didn't want to leave! I would recommend Rachel to everyone. :)”
