“Michael and Regina did a very good job taking care of Addie, even though she never got comfortable being away from us. They were willing to give Addie her daily medication and find a spot for her that made her feel less insecure. Genuinely, very nice people. House spotless and cozy.”
“Julie is amazing! From start to finish, she was quick to respond, provided many updates, photos and videos, and was so friendly, kind and professional. She and her family had a ton of patience for my boston terrier Lily, who is obsessed with playing tug of war and fetch. I never once worried about Lily. Julie was also very accommodating for my last minute request for a sitter, and I really appreciated that!! Don't hesitate to book her services! I definitely will again!”
“AMAZING!!! First of all even before how amazing these two are - they are right he the airport. About them: I knew my pups were so happy the entire time they were there. I received so many great pictures and little stories about their day. These two were so enthusiastic about loving my dogs and letting me know. Sarah even works from home some days so you know your pups are happy 24/7. My dogs just got home and they are completely passed out so I know they were active and happy. I highly recommend Brendan and Sarah.”
“Caroline and Samuel were fantastic with my dog Netty. They were flexible with pick up times and they genuinely care about your dogs well being and happiness. The updates they sent made me smile and reassured Netty was in good hands. Their dog Winnie is adorable and eager to play with your dog any chance she gets! 100% recommend booking with them! Will book again soon. Thank you for a great experience”
“Winston had the best stay! This was my first time ever leaving him, and I was understandably nervous, but I felt completely at ease from the start. There was constant communication throughout his stay, with updates that made me feel confident he was in great hands. He was truly treated like part of their family, not just a dog they were watching. I’m so grateful for the care, attention, and love they showed Winston, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Lynn is the best Rover we ever had. She plays games with her dogs and makes sure to find the best way to get our picky eater to eat. Our dog is very comfortable at her house because she is treated like Lynn's dogs and she fits in with her pack. We get daily updates with pictures and videos and we never have to worry about our dog while we are away.”
“Stacie and Doug were amazing. My dog has several medications she needs to take throughout the day and she is older. They were wonderful about keeping me updated on her stay with them. It really gave me peace of mind as I was on vacation. I will be booking with them again soon …highly recommend Stacie and Doug.”
“They run to see Miss Pamela and Marshall when I drop them off. This lets me know that they enjoy their time there. She is great about giving updates and I am happy with their services.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Margaret! She took such great care of our Lightning, and kept us updated throughout our trip with the sweetest photos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving and capable hands. Lightning looked so happy and relaxed—we could tell she was truly well cared for. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, easy-to-work-with and attentive sitter!”
“Kirby had another great visit with Tom and Tolley! They always send pictures and/or videos. I never worry that he’s having a great time and being very well taken care of.”
“Eric and Polly are fantastic! They are so caring and Colby loves spending time there! We can go on vacation knowing that he feels at home and that he is in a safe and loving environment.”
“Can’t recommend Archna enough! We’ve used her in the past and will continue to use her for our 6 year old shepherd. Very communicative and responsive and takes great care of our girl. Our dog is truly a member of our family so finding someone who will give her personal attention and treat her as a member of theirs is very important to us. Knowing she’s is such great hands allows us to really be able to relax and enjoy our vacation.”
“Ron and his wife Janet showed our three year old Aussie another great weekend of outdoor hikes, play time and snuggles! Ron is our go to dog sitter when we are away. He is incredibly generous in the time he devotes to her and keeps me updated along the way. Stella has really formed a friendship with their dogs as well! I continue to use him because I feel good leaving her knowing she is loved and getting exercise! I can’t give enough positive feedback!”
“Thomas was great. Our pup had such a great time and he treated him like family. Super responsive and accommodating and sent lots of photos. Will definitely bool Thomas again!”
“Jason was a life saver agreeing to care for Stella while I had a last minute meeting out of town. He was very responsive and took great care of her. She was happy and busy playing when I came to pick her up. Would absolutely use again. Thanks for the great care!”
“As always Lulu had a great time with Susan and Frank. Susan sends lots of pictures and Lulu seems very at home from napping in a doggie bed to playing with the other dogs in the backyard. Lulu and I both are happy and secure when she boards with Susan.”

“Julia was so awesome and flexible!! I had some concerns with booking a pet sitter at an apartment complex, but Julia made things go incredibly smooth! Will definitely be using her again.”

“Erica was amazing! We set up a meet and greet and our cat is very selective of who he immediately goes up to and he wasted no time meeting her. We were able to enjoy our trip and not worry at all if our cat was cared for and well taken care of! Will be using her again! We really appreciated the amount of pictures she sent us.”
“We are really thankful to Alicia for taking such great care of our precious boy. She followed the provided instructions really well and it's clear that she is very passionate about animals and her profession, and she's very professional and personable. We would certainly recommend her services to others and would utilize them in our future need as well.”
“Ellen looked after our kitties while we were on vacation - everything worked out fine, she sent us pictures daily - she didn't meet our shy kitty but maybe next time!”
“This was the second time Jordan watched my cats and I think they remembered him because they were completely themselves around him. I love his updates from each visit. It makes it a little easier to be away from them. I'll definitely continue booking with Jordan!”
“Fantastic experience! Not only were my kitties well taken care of, I was also given detailed updates and photos on how they were doing each day. I came home to some very happy cats!”
“Maureen was incredibly attentive and responsive. We were very anxious about leaving Lumi for the first time since we got her, but Maureen made us feel very at ease. She was prompt with communication and sent so many updates! And most importantly, Lumi seemed to have been happy and at ease. Thank you so much for everything Maureen!”
“Makaila was absolutely fantastic watching our cat for five days. Our cat is a rescue stray, off the streets, and is very skittish. She went above and beyond to try to make friends and to put my cat at ease. She was on time, super friendly, made sure to do a meet and greet before the scheduled pet sitting, and made sure my cat was well fed, and played ball with her. Truly can’t recommend her enough! Your pet is in wonderful hands with her!”
“Lexie was fantastic with daily check ins for my sweet cat while we were away for almost two weeks. She gave her a lot of loves, playtime, and special treats, sending me lots of pics each time so I got to stay updated on her happenings. I’ll definitely rebook in the future and highly recommend!”
“Maura was just great. She’s a lovely person, and she took good care of my two cats. When one of them threw up on my dining table, she took steps immediately to save the white tablecloth from stains. I will definitely book her again in the future.”

I will book with Samantha anytime I can in the future if the pups need a sitter! She is AMAZING!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
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!
“Our pups had a great time! Carla accepted our booking the day of after we had another one cancel. She kept us up to date with photos & videos. Would definitely book with her again if we return to Cleveland”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family, and I strive to provide the same level of care, attention, and patience that I would want for my own. My background in healthcare has taught me how to be responsible, detail-oriented, and attentive to the unique needs of every individual, skills that translate naturally to pet care. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior dogs who may require a gentler pace and extra attention. Whether it's daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, administering oral medications, reinforcing basic training, or simply providing companionship, I prioritize your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness. I am currently a Master's student in Medical Physiology at Case Western Reserve University, which has helped me develop strong time-management, responsibility, and organizational skills. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals as a balance to my studies. Despite a busy academic schedule, I am very intentional about managing my time and maintaining commitments. Whether it's morning walks, midday drop-in visits, evening care, or weekend sitting, I enjoy incorporating pet care into my routine because it allows me to spend time outdoors and connect with animals while helping pet owners have peace of mind. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every pet with patience, attentiveness, and compassion. As someone pursuing a career in healthcare, I value reliability, clear communication, and attention to detail, and I bring those same qualities to caring for your furry family members. I am committed to ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any specific preferences or needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and mental stimulation while also keeping their environment clean and safe. If providing care in my own home, I would ensure pets have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of supervision, exercise, fresh water, and opportunities for play and rest. My goal is always to make pets feel as relaxed and loved as possible, whether they are in their own home or mine.
About: My husband and I own a very sweet, playful Great Dane/mastiff and a pure bred English Mastiff. We have experience with all kinds of dogs and other animals. We have a large finished upstairs where our dog loves to run and play. We have a large backyard that is fully fenced/gated. We walk daily (in nice weather). We have fun toys to play with and a whole room for your dog to sleep in (instead of a cage) but if your dog prefers a cage we have a huge one he can sleep in (or you can bring your own). I stay home so your pet will have plenty of company! We have three young girls who absolutely love playing with dogs. They are gentle and dogs always love them.
“Aspen is the best! She took great care of our dog Ollie and sent regular updates. Ollie immediately felt comfortable with her! Would highly recommend booking with Aspen”
“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!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities for over 20 years. As a neonatal nurse practitioner, providing attentive, compassionate care is part of who I am, and I bring that same level of responsibility and love to every pet I watch. I’m the proud owner of Kona, my friendly 9-year-old Lab/Shar-Pei mix, and I have two young children who have grown up around dogs and are gentle and respectful with animals. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m available most days of the week and can provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with people, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“I booked with Debbra for my mom and we were so happy with how considerate she was. My mom ended up having phone issues, took a wrong turn, and was hours late to picking up her dog. Debbra was so flexible and understanding, it took a load off my mom who was already at peak stress. We couldn’t recommend Debbra enough!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I've cared for pets for years, helping with walking, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays. I love going on walks and enjoy a good amount of play time. Whether it’s a high energy dog or a senior, I adjust my care to fit their personality. I have a relaxed work from home environment that allows me the flexibility to attend and care for your pet. There will be no lack of attention when they're in my care. I allow dogs the freedom to roam my home and yard as long as they're well mannered. If not, then I have a gated and fenced area for them to roam in.
“James was very easy going and patient with my puppy Moka. He took her for a nice extended walk, fed her and most of all, allowed her to warm up to him before he took her out.”
About: I’ve had dogs since forever, I love mine more than anything. My experiences dog sitting and cat sitting range from my neighbors and family to taking care of animals on my uncles farm. I love meeting people’s pets so it would be my pleasure to meet more!! My dog Ruby is 15 years old and I love her to death, I can’t imagine her being alone all day. I go to college full time at Cleveland State University. I do play in multiple orchestras as well, but although I’m busy I have time in between classes and in the afternoons/evenings that I struggle to fill! I would love to have a slow morning taking care of a pet, or going on a walk, so I am very flexible. I understand that all pets have their own personality, and honestly the best way to take care of them relies on me getting to know them. The quirks about pets are my favorite thing about them, and I am willing to work with any needs they have. I love spending time with any animal and making sure they feel loved and entertained.
