“Gail did a great job for us while we were over seas. The girls had lots of attention and play time. Most important was that our one dog received all of her medicine daily. We worry about them getting everything they need. We will definitely use Gail again.”
“We were very pleased with the care given to our dog and the pictures that were sent almost daily!!! We knew our dog enjoyed her stay because when we went to pick her up she didn't know whether to come with us or stay with Sherri, that speaks volume!!! Thank you for taking such good care 💕 of our Bella!!!!”
“After meeting Alicia I knew our dog was in good hands. Leaving your dog with a stranger is not easy, but with a fenced in yard and other dogs of her own, I knew our dog would be properly cared for. Alicia provided us with updates, photos and even went the extra mile trying to conquer our dog’s hunger strike each time we leave him. It’s nice to know other people are willing to love your pet the same as you would so you can enjoy some time away from home. We’ll be back!”
“Super nice/living family. After initially meeting them, I was very comfortable leaving my Murphy with them. They have two lovely Beagles and children who obviously love the dogs as well & a perfect indoor & outdoor setting for playing and roaming. They sent me photos and a video which made my day. Nathan even slept downstairs on the couch when my pup seemed worried without having anyone around as it was his first night away from home in several months since a horrific extended stay experience with a facility. I will definitely use them again whenever I need to be away from home!”
“10/10 highly recommend and will def use again!! My dogs were so comfortable and content while I was away. She sends pics and updates. Overall great experience! Her backyard alone is any dogs dream 💕”
“Thank you Deanna and Maui for letting Remy hang out with you guys!! It’s so nice to not have to worry about how Remy is doing when we’re out of town! Deanna takes such good care of Remy and he has a blast playing with her dog too!”
“I appreciate Doug’s willingness to do everything possible to make the separation experience easier for Dexter. He was very attentive and kept me informed about his stay. I would highly recommend him for your next trip.”
“We feel so fortunate to have found Mark and Vicki. They loved our Heidi almost as much as we do! We appreciated that they only keep small dogs, and while Heidi was there, she had the company of another of their small dog regulars for a few days. We appreciated the many pictures Mark and Vicki sent along with notes about Heidi's visit, every morning and evening. We even felt like they would miss Heidi when we took her home! She even slept on their bed--just like home :). They interviewed us thoroughly and were careful to follow Heidi's routines as far as walks and feeding and snuggling were concerned. Thank you, Mark and Vicki. We will definitely call you the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Cassie is amazing! Her and her family make our pup Miles feel like he's one of their own. She sends regular updates with pictures and he's always a happy boy when we pick him up. We'll continue to book with her whenever needed.”
“Suzanne watched my Lab for the weekend. She was great with sending pics and communicating with me! She took very good care of my Lola! I would definitely use her again!”
“Sauddi took care of our three dogs; one husky and two smaller older dogs while we were on a two week vacation. She was extremely attentive, timely, and attended to our dogs. She went way above and beyond with toys and even heated blankets for the older gentleman. I cannot say enough, how amazing she was! I don’t think they missed us at all while we were gone :-) She was very mindful of their well-being and happiness, took them on walks, and sent us pictures every day. Additionally, she also looked after our chickens, and even had to capture a few that didn’t make it in the coop at night! She went beyond full service. I would definitely hire her again and will be disappointed if I can’t get on her schedule next time.”
“Melissa was great! She kept our Great Dane for a week, this was the first time we left our dog with anyone. She kept us updated with texts and videos. She is very experienced with a wide variety of dog breeds. Her house and land is great for the dogs to run and play. When we picked our dog up she seemed like herself and didn’t seem anxious or stressed at all. We would definitely book with Melissa again, and I highly recommend her.”
“Tiffany took care of our pup Ramsay on New Year’s Eve when our original sitter canceled at the last minute. Ramsay seemed to have a great time! I appreciated the pictures and updates to know that he was doing well, and he was exhausted when we brought him home the next day. Thanks Tiffany!”
About: All K9 Solutions is fully insured and licensed here in Akron OH. I've been training dogs for 6 years and professionally for 4 years. After I worked for reputable training companies, one here in Akron area as the head trainer, I decided to open my own company called All K9 Solutions. I grew up with dogs, and have experience with cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, chickens, and ducks as I used to manage a farm as well. I personally network all over the US with other dog trainers. One of my recent travels has been to Kansas to help host a working dog workshop with a few small departments. I have two Belgian malinois who I strive for their needs to be met daily. From mental stimulation to physical stimulation while giving them a “job”. My youngest is 3 years old and does many sports (PSA, AKC sports, and has been dabbling in odor work), and my oldest is 10, he’s a retired military explosives K9 who served on the boarder of Jordan up until 7 years old. Both the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. All of my dogs have off leash obedience training that is kept up with. I have a background in dog training, boarding, and daycare; from puppies all the way to seniors. I strive for knowledge with dogs as there’s always new information to learn and dogs aren’t cookie cutter. I’m also an STSK9 MVP student for advanced obedience. I’m very passionate about teaching others about dogs from genetics and breeds to how their psychology works. My business hours run from 7am-10pm. My availability is open from the afternoon to night time, this way all morning routines are completed, walks, potty breaks, feeding, training sessions etc. All dogs are boarded in a home environment instead of a facility. This way your dogs aren’t as stressed being away from you, and they can comfortably enjoy their vacation too. All dogs are kenneled to ensure safety (not investing anything they shouldn’t, no free roam 24/7 with other client’s dogs you don’t know, and they have their own space to decompress). Since the yard isn't fenced in, all dogs must be leashed with a properly fitted collar with a longline when going outside, a harness, or a slip lead. However, a good peaceful walk with all the smells is always more mental and physical stimulation for the dogs than a fenced in area with limited access. Reactive dogs and fearful dogs are welcome as I have years of experience with them, and training them to grow confidence and obedience. I also have experience with special need's animals. Loud dogs are welcome too. If your dog(s) show healthy body language and do well with other dogs, my two malinois are gentle beings and always love a play mate. Minka especially, she follows the other dog's pace and reads their body language. I do ask that you leave your vet information with me and emergency vet information as well for an emergency contact if ever need be. Better safe than sorry. I also do ask for a second choice of contact incase the primary owner is unable to be reached. All dogs must be up to date on vaccines and bordetella for boarding and daycare. Safety precautions are always taken. For the well being of the dogs and myself. Please note that I do require all important behaviors are made aware of by the owners before hand and I will notify owners upon any concern of sickness or bite risks. I send updates each day as well or will add photos to your rover card.
“Sarah was very thorough with details and understanding of our our elderly dog's needs. She was flexible and communicated well. Thanks for loving on our sweetie!”
“Savannah was great! She welcomed Charlie with open arms and an open heart! Couldn't have asked for a better caretaker! Five stars just doesn't do her justice...should be ten stars! Thank you Savannah and family! Kathryn and Milt”
About: I’ve had pets all my life! Most recently I had a pitbull for 12 years and 2 cats for 15+. Sadly, all aged and passed away the past two years (I got them all young around the same time, bad idea since they tend to pass away so close to each other). Before I got my last dog, I fostered pitbulls who were good with cats for a couple years. My home is open and free for them to roam, and I’m well-equipped for big pitties trying to yank me around my large yard! My pitty had incontinence before he passed so I also am prepared for messes and spills. My home is ready and equipped for large dogs and for cats, since I kept everything from my last pets as I await being able to get my own again. I’ve also pet-sat for many of my friends when they leave town a when their dogs got along with mine! Now that I have none, I can offer solo or multiple dogs at once depending on your preference. I work part time, mostly from home. Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays I have a few hours of evening commitments but that’s it! I can usually come let animals out or feed them in the morning, afternoon, and evenings before bed unless I stay in your house, and then I can be there most of the day. I care for animals in my home as if they were mine! We wake up and have breakfast, go outside, and hangout around the house while I work. Lots of snuggles and pets! I let animals sleep in my bed if they want. If it’s your home, I’ll be able to meet the needs of your pet as described. I can crate if that’s desired, I have a large crate for large dogs!
“My dog Felix was with Trisha for 5 days and she took him at the last minute. He was cared for and looked after while he was there. He had plenty of room to run, other dogs to play with, and doggie pools for the hot days. Pictures and videos were sent to me while I was away as well which was nice!! I would recommend her if you are looking for someone to watch your dog.”
“I brought our dog Yukon for daycare to Paula & Bill today, and I were a little worried at the beginning since my dog has strong separation anxiety. To my surprise, Yukon adapted so well in new environment. He felt comfortable very quickly, and had great time with Paula,Bill and their two dogs Marty &Ginger. iIt was clear he was well cared for and given lots of attention. It means so much to us to find a loving, patient, and responsible family to take care of our fur baby. We truly appreciate the warm and safe environment they provide. We definitely will come back again! Highly recommend!”

“Macy is a great cat sitter! I was out of town for a weekend and Macy watched my anxious senior fluff ball while I was gone. I got tons of in detail updates about him and he even came out when Macy stopped by, which is unusual for him since he can be a bit scared of new people! I came home to a very happy kitty, so I’d definitely recommend Macy as a cat sitter!”
“Laura took amazing care of our kitties while we were on vacation! She was very attentive and sent daily updates and photos. I highly recommend her and will definitely have her care for our kitties for any future trips!”
“Patience was awesome - she took great care (and great pics) of our 3 kitties in our absence! I was so relaxed knowing they had fresh water, fresh crunchy food, treats, play time, their breakfast wet food and a scooped litter box while we were away! It would be our pleasure to trust her again with our cats, who I'm sure would ask for her to come back too!”
“Vanessa did an amazing job caring for our cat and rabbit while we were away. Her updates were thorough and she provided great pictures. I appreciate how she went above and beyond to ensure our pets were well cared for. Highly recommend Vanessa!”
“My boys absolutely love having Brittany check in on them and they look so relaxed in the pics she shares daily. She’s fabulous with communication of status. I know they are well taken care of which is a HUGE relief!”
“She is the perfect cat sitter!!!! A vet student who loves animals IS the purrfect combination for my trio. One is very old and needs some extra tlc. Peace of mind is priceless and her pet duty gives that. She is hired for all family and friends I'm spreading the word....”
“Mykaela has been wonderful! We can trust that she will take good care of our puppy during her visits. She sends us photo updates and our dog always looks so happy and like she is having fun. We appreciate her helping us! Would definitely recommend!”
“Alicia does a great job making sure all of my cats are fed, watered and feel loved while I'm away. I get consistent updates and photos of all in a timely manner.”
“I moved and had to find a new Nanny for my 2 Sphynx girls. I use a Nanny 12-16 days a month. I thought it would be hard to find a replacement for my previous Nanny bc They are very affectionate and personable and need someone who will be the same. I am so happy I found Michelle!! They all adore each other and my needy girl gets what she needs.”
“Rebekah did a terrific job with our three cats. She was able to administer medication with one cat which can be a difficult task. She spent time with them on her visits and provided very detailed reports every day with photos. Highly recommend.”
“Taylor was so great with my cat! My cat is usually very scared around new people, but she warmed up to Taylor right away. It was nice to no worry about her while I was away for a little while. Thanks!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with both dogs and cats. I also have my own rabbit, Snoopy, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet. I have experience pet sitting for friends and family and am especially comfortable with large breeds including pit bulls, Dobermans, German Shepherds, and huskies. I’m comfortable administering medication when needed and staying calm in emergency situations. I’m very attentive to pets and good at noticing when something seems off, and I’m comfortable communicating concerns quickly and getting veterinary care if needed. I will care for your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I work full-time as an Operations Manager, but pet care fits easily into my routine! I’m available before and after (& during lunch break if needed!!) work for walks, feeding, playtime, medications, and lots of attention. I am also available overnights! I make pet care a priority and will always communicate my schedule clearly so your pet gets reliable, loving care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I’m very attentive and good at noticing when something seems off, and I will always communicate updates or concerns quickly. I’m comfortable administering medication when needed and staying calm in emergency situations if they arise. I will treat your home and pets with the same care, love, and respect I would want for my own. I also know how hard it can be being away from your pet (I’m definitely that pet parent too with my rabbit, Snoopy 😂), so I’m always happy to send plenty of photo and video updates for extra peace of mind!
“Miranda was an excellent cat sitter for our 2 kitties. She did a great job and even took on extra responsibilities for us such as watering lawn, bringing in mail, and making sure the cats were comfortable. We would definitely use her again!”

“Jenna did a great job taking care of Rosie. She came home happy and had a great time playing with the other small dogs. I am so grateful that she only takes smaller dogs. Rosie is afraid of big dogs and I know that she won’t be frightened while she is in Jenna‘s care.”
“Excellent service. Zach and his daughter were great with my dog Rex! Great setup with a tall fence and Rex loved playing with their dogs.This was a same day booking and they were able to accommodate us last minute and also the following day. I had only left my dog one day at a kennel his whole life so was nervous and within minutes knew I had made the correct choice with Zach and his home!”
About: Hi! I’m Corey — a pet-loving guy who truly understands how deeply animals become family. I’ve spent the last 15 years caring for dogs, including two beloved seniors who recently passed in 2021 and 2025. Betty, an English Bulldog who was “thicker than a bowl of oatmeal,” and Sadie, my blue-tick coonhound/beagle mix who was a true treat connoisseur with a heart of gold. Losing them has been incredibly hard… but also a powerful reminder of just how special the bond with a pet really is. Caring for other people’s pets has become a form of healing and therapy for me. I miss the snoring, the wagging tails, the playtime, and the pure happiness a dog brings into a home. Being around animals fills me with joy, and I pour that love right back into the pups I watch. I have hands-on experience with: • Senior dog care (medications, patience, mobility support, and gentle comfort) • High-energy dogs who need walks and structured play • Bulldogs, hounds, and every personality in between • Smaller breeds like Chihuahuas and Dachshunds Your dog isn’t just a “dog” to me — they’re family, someone’s whole heart. And while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same gentleness, humor, consistency, and affection that I gave to Betty and Sadie. I work from home and can provide exceptional care! Your dog is my main concern during the day and evening and will be spoiled and loved! I will treat your pet as my own and follow all instructions provided to me about your dog(s) routine and schedule. I truly care and want to make your experience easy and stress free.
“Sarah was incredibly thorough and made sure that my dog felt comfortable in a new space! Thank you so much for your time and giving Lou Lou an incredibly fun experience.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve self-trained my own dogs and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, leave it, and leash manners (especially helpful for puppies and energetic dogs). I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures who requires medication, so I’m confident with administering meds and supporting pets with special routines or extra care needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly helped neighbors and friends with pet sitting and daily care. I’m attentive, calm, and safety-focused, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I also groom and bathe my own dogs, and while full grooming isn’t typically part of my services, I’m absolutely willing to help if an urgent situation arises. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of needs. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins, including hourly relief when needed, and I can do multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Because I’m home often, I’m also able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and routine support. Care looks a little different depending on whether I’m in your home or mine, but my top priorities are always safety, routine, and clear communication. I expect to communicate frequently during your pet's visit with me. In my home: For daycare or boarding, I require that dogs are crate trained, since dogs will be crated overnight and anytime I’m not home. I also require up-to-date vaccine records to keep everyone safe. I have two dogs of my own, so I carefully monitor introductions and compatibility. We do have a yard, but it is not fenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash. In your home: During our meet & greet, we’ll go over your pet’s routine in detail (feeding, potty breaks, walks, medication, etc.). I ask that any important care instructions are also listed in your pet’s Rover profile in writing, so everything is clear and consistent. I’m happy to follow your household routines as close as possible during the visit.

About: My name is Holly. I am an animal lover! I grew up on a farm, so I am familiar with care of many types of animals. I have never not had a dog in my life.

About: I grew up in a home full of animals, including three boxers, a pit bull, and cats all around! All of the animals i’ve owned have lived to senior ages, so I am aware of what may need done to love the older guys a little extra! I’m also aware of what puppy training or walking may look like. I’ve trained and raised three of my own dogs as well. I am currently working full time, but my hours may vary per day! I am available for dog walking/drop in visits early morning and afternoon/evening! Currently our day starts with a potty trip and around ten minutes of enrichment before going into kennels for work!

About: My parents bred dogs, so I grew up learning how to guage a dogs personality and adjust to their needs. I am comfortable with the anxious, the high-energy, the easily triggered, the "aggressive breeds", etc. I am confident in administering medication as needed to your animals. I went to school for zoo-keeping. Providing enrichment and taking great care of your animals is something that I take pride in. If you have any other animals I am more than happy to include them in my care- I have experience with them all, almost. I currently work alongside my husband. We are renovating a few homes in the area, therefore I can usually adjust my schedule and am available almost 24/7. I have a reliable Chevy Cruz that is fondly accustomed to dog hair. You will receive updates from me often, but feel free to request additional updates. I am very communicative and quick to respond. You can count on me being observant, responsible and proactive with your animals at all times.

One time my dog became ill and she reached out immediately and helped get her to the vet ER and stayed with her until I was able to arrive. Would definitely recommend her.”

“Nicole did an awesome job. Sent photos and updates. I had no worries knowing she was taking care of Alfie. And she lives right around the corner from me. I'm already set on having her watch him again when I go out of town. Definitely 10/10”
About: I have lived with at least 1 dog in my house since the day I was born. I really started taking care of dogs when we got our current one 7 years ago. I started dog sitting when I was 17 years old. Every client that I have worked for has asked me to come back and I continue to work for them. I love all different kinds of dogs. I have worked with small and large dogs. Along with dogs as young as 1 year olds, all the way up to 14 year old dogs I am a college student, so I can be with the dog(s) while I’m home doing homework. I only go to school 3 days a week, and I only go for a few hours. So I will be able to spend plenty of time with your dogs! I have one fun and hyper dog, he has an electric fence so he loves to run around the yard. I love to take breaks from doing homework to play with him.
About: I have taken care of dogs since i was a little girl. I love watching & playing with dogs. Currently just lost a dog of my own so looking to be around dogs that remind me of her. I am a teacher and looking to spend my summer helping out and hanging out with pets. Love getting in some daily exercise especially with dogs. I do as caregiver says & will give the safest environment for that dog. Loving being around dogs & having a good playful time together
“Nikki is awesome! She is so sweet and great with my Maverick! She is punctual and reliable and goes above and beyond to take care of my baby! She sends lots of pictures and videos and is flexible! Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Alicia made me feel confident to leave my puppy and 3 cats in her care for the day. My puppy got plenty of enrichment and Alicia gave my disabled cat her medication as instructed. Thanks, Alicia!”
“Jasmin is wonderful. She watched my dog Malbec while I was on a weeklong trip. She sent us updates and great pictures every day being so easy to coordinate with as well. Thank you so much for sharing some love to our furry baby those Xmas days.”
About: I have had some pet or another since I was born. I have raised cats and dogs and other wet things. I am ready to spread the love and compassion I have for other living beings I have a flexible schedule since I have recently retired. I take my dog walking in all kinds of weather and can do that for your pet too. My dog Millie is very loving and can’t wait to meet new people and their furry family. We have a large yard and a safe neighborhood and can take long walks. I like to have good care information about your pet so that you can feel confident and comfortable that your furry one will be healthy and happy when you cannot be there.
About: My family and I have always had a dog while I was growing up, I’m a huge dog fan and absolutely love spending time with them! As a teacher, I am off in the summer time, so what better way to make some extra money by doing what I love most? (Being with dogs!) I made sure every dog my family and I owned got exercise daily, as well as lots of love, cuddles and treats! I would be so happy to continue these activities with other dogs!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have two standard golden doodles, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. For the past few years, I have house sat and cared for pets of all ages, giving me experience with different routines, personalities, and needs. I truly treat every pet like my own. I’m patient, reliable, attentive, and understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with maintaining routines, administering basic care, and providing lots of playtime, walks, and attention. I am currently working part-time and pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my own two dogs every day. I have experience in balancing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’m flexible, organized, and able to adjust my schedule to make sure each pet gets the care, consistency, and love they need. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. In my own home, my dogs use invisible fence collars and are able to safely spend time outside. When caring for pets in a clients home, I always follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable, secure, and stress free. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, walks, bathroom breaks, medications, and any special instructions to make sure each pet receives safe and reliable care.
About: I’ve grown up with cats, dogs, and horses and have always been there for family members and neighbors when pet care services were needed. My sister got a puppy last year and I helped raised her, took her on walks, groomed her, etc. My other older sister was a dog trainer for years and taught me a lot about dog training. I’ve got experience with large dogs (grew up with Great Danes) but also small dog experience (had a shnoodle while in high school). I also volunteered at the local Humane Society to take many dogs out for walks, clean their cages, and help get them accustomed to people. I’m a nurse who works 3 days a week and on my off days I’d love to spend time caring for animals. I currently care for my cat but also dog sit for family/friends as needed. I do not have a fenced in yard but I will put your pet on a leash and take them outside as much as possible, especially for walks. As for cats, I will interact with them as much or as little as they’d like! I will clean up if an accident happens, give them lots of pets, and give fresh water and food as wanted.
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve self-trained my own dogs and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, leave it, and leash manners (especially helpful for puppies and energetic dogs). I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures who requires medication, so I’m confident with administering meds and supporting pets with special routines or extra care needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly helped neighbors and friends with pet sitting and daily care. I’m attentive, calm, and safety-focused, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I also groom and bathe my own dogs, and while full grooming isn’t typically part of my services, I’m absolutely willing to help if an urgent situation arises. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of needs. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins, including hourly relief when needed, and I can do multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Because I’m home often, I’m also able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and routine support. Care looks a little different depending on whether I’m in your home or mine, but my top priorities are always safety, routine, and clear communication. I expect to communicate frequently during your pet's visit with me. In my home: For daycare or boarding, I require that dogs are crate trained, since dogs will be crated overnight and anytime I’m not home. I also require up-to-date vaccine records to keep everyone safe. I have two dogs of my own, so I carefully monitor introductions and compatibility. We do have a yard, but it is not fenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash. In your home: During our meet & greet, we’ll go over your pet’s routine in detail (feeding, potty breaks, walks, medication, etc.). I ask that any important care instructions are also listed in your pet’s Rover profile in writing, so everything is clear and consistent. I’m happy to follow your household routines as close as possible during the visit.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for a long time. My experience is with all sizes and breeds as well as temperaments. I have 3 large of my own who I personally have trained. I also am able to administer medication such as shots or pills. Any other questions please ask. I am a stay at home mom who left my job to be able to start a business on my own. I have achieved a great amount of regular clients off of rover, but am still looking for some more on a regular basis and as needed during the day. I have a few openings left for weekdays to fill, weekends are pretty open. I have plenty of references if needed. I can do drop in visits for feedings and potty breaks and I can also do dog walking. I am very observant when it comes to what the dogs are doing and where they are for their safety. I always check fences and yards for any dangers before I let a dog into the area. I make sure their collar and leash are in good working order as there will be no escapes on my watch. I always double check door locks before leaving a client's home.

“Gail did a great job for us while we were over seas. The girls had lots of attention and play time. Most important was that our one dog received all of her medicine daily. We worry about them getting everything they need. We will definitely use Gail again.”
“After meeting Alicia I knew our dog was in good hands. Leaving your dog with a stranger is not easy, but with a fenced in yard and other dogs of her own, I knew our dog would be properly cared for. Alicia provided us with updates, photos and even went the extra mile trying to conquer our dog’s hunger strike each time we leave him. It’s nice to know other people are willing to love your pet the same as you would so you can enjoy some time away from home. We’ll be back!”
“Super nice/living family. After initially meeting them, I was very comfortable leaving my Murphy with them. They have two lovely Beagles and children who obviously love the dogs as well & a perfect indoor & outdoor setting for playing and roaming. They sent me photos and a video which made my day. Nathan even slept downstairs on the couch when my pup seemed worried without having anyone around as it was his first night away from home in several months since a horrific extended stay experience with a facility. I will definitely use them again whenever I need to be away from home!”
“10/10 highly recommend and will def use again!! My dogs were so comfortable and content while I was away. She sends pics and updates. Overall great experience! Her backyard alone is any dogs dream 💕”
“Cassie is amazing! Her and her family make our pup Miles feel like he's one of their own. She sends regular updates with pictures and he's always a happy boy when we pick him up. We'll continue to book with her whenever needed.”
“Suzanne watched my Lab for the weekend. She was great with sending pics and communicating with me! She took very good care of my Lola! I would definitely use her again!”
“Melissa was great! She kept our Great Dane for a week, this was the first time we left our dog with anyone. She kept us updated with texts and videos. She is very experienced with a wide variety of dog breeds. Her house and land is great for the dogs to run and play. When we picked our dog up she seemed like herself and didn’t seem anxious or stressed at all. We would definitely book with Melissa again, and I highly recommend her.”
“I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care you provided for my dog, Luna! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. You took the time to understand her personality and needs, which made all the difference. Luna had an absolute blast during her day with you! Thank you once again for giving Luna such a wonderful day. I will definitely be reaching out for future dog-sitting needs, and I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!”
“Tiffany took care of our pup Ramsay on New Year’s Eve when our original sitter canceled at the last minute. Ramsay seemed to have a great time! I appreciated the pictures and updates to know that he was doing well, and he was exhausted when we brought him home the next day. Thanks Tiffany!”
About: All K9 Solutions is fully insured and licensed here in Akron OH. I've been training dogs for 6 years and professionally for 4 years. After I worked for reputable training companies, one here in Akron area as the head trainer, I decided to open my own company called All K9 Solutions. I grew up with dogs, and have experience with cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, chickens, and ducks as I used to manage a farm as well. I personally network all over the US with other dog trainers. One of my recent travels has been to Kansas to help host a working dog workshop with a few small departments. I have two Belgian malinois who I strive for their needs to be met daily. From mental stimulation to physical stimulation while giving them a “job”. My youngest is 3 years old and does many sports (PSA, AKC sports, and has been dabbling in odor work), and my oldest is 10, he’s a retired military explosives K9 who served on the boarder of Jordan up until 7 years old. Both the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. All of my dogs have off leash obedience training that is kept up with. I have a background in dog training, boarding, and daycare; from puppies all the way to seniors. I strive for knowledge with dogs as there’s always new information to learn and dogs aren’t cookie cutter. I’m also an STSK9 MVP student for advanced obedience. I’m very passionate about teaching others about dogs from genetics and breeds to how their psychology works. My business hours run from 7am-10pm. My availability is open from the afternoon to night time, this way all morning routines are completed, walks, potty breaks, feeding, training sessions etc. All dogs are boarded in a home environment instead of a facility. This way your dogs aren’t as stressed being away from you, and they can comfortably enjoy their vacation too. All dogs are kenneled to ensure safety (not investing anything they shouldn’t, no free roam 24/7 with other client’s dogs you don’t know, and they have their own space to decompress). Since the yard isn't fenced in, all dogs must be leashed with a properly fitted collar with a longline when going outside, a harness, or a slip lead. However, a good peaceful walk with all the smells is always more mental and physical stimulation for the dogs than a fenced in area with limited access. Reactive dogs and fearful dogs are welcome as I have years of experience with them, and training them to grow confidence and obedience. I also have experience with special need's animals. Loud dogs are welcome too. If your dog(s) show healthy body language and do well with other dogs, my two malinois are gentle beings and always love a play mate. Minka especially, she follows the other dog's pace and reads their body language. I do ask that you leave your vet information with me and emergency vet information as well for an emergency contact if ever need be. Better safe than sorry. I also do ask for a second choice of contact incase the primary owner is unable to be reached. All dogs must be up to date on vaccines and bordetella for boarding and daycare. Safety precautions are always taken. For the well being of the dogs and myself. Please note that I do require all important behaviors are made aware of by the owners before hand and I will notify owners upon any concern of sickness or bite risks. I send updates each day as well or will add photos to your rover card.
“Sarah was very thorough with details and understanding of our our elderly dog's needs. She was flexible and communicated well. Thanks for loving on our sweetie!”
“Savannah was great! She welcomed Charlie with open arms and an open heart! Couldn't have asked for a better caretaker! Five stars just doesn't do her justice...should be ten stars! Thank you Savannah and family! Kathryn and Milt”
“Vicki is beyond amazing as a dog sitter. My lab has so much energy and the day he came home after a week with Vicki and her other dogs, he did nothing but sleep! While at the sitters he took great advantage of the dog friendly swimming pool and large yard. Vicki sent me pictures everyday and let me know what adventures my dog was experiencing. I highly recommend Vicki - she loves dogs!!! We will be a repeat customer ?”
About: I’ve had pets all my life! Most recently I had a pitbull for 12 years and 2 cats for 15+. Sadly, all aged and passed away the past two years (I got them all young around the same time, bad idea since they tend to pass away so close to each other). Before I got my last dog, I fostered pitbulls who were good with cats for a couple years. My home is open and free for them to roam, and I’m well-equipped for big pitties trying to yank me around my large yard! My pitty had incontinence before he passed so I also am prepared for messes and spills. My home is ready and equipped for large dogs and for cats, since I kept everything from my last pets as I await being able to get my own again. I’ve also pet-sat for many of my friends when they leave town a when their dogs got along with mine! Now that I have none, I can offer solo or multiple dogs at once depending on your preference. I work part time, mostly from home. Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays I have a few hours of evening commitments but that’s it! I can usually come let animals out or feed them in the morning, afternoon, and evenings before bed unless I stay in your house, and then I can be there most of the day. I care for animals in my home as if they were mine! We wake up and have breakfast, go outside, and hangout around the house while I work. Lots of snuggles and pets! I let animals sleep in my bed if they want. If it’s your home, I’ll be able to meet the needs of your pet as described. I can crate if that’s desired, I have a large crate for large dogs!
“My dog Felix was with Trisha for 5 days and she took him at the last minute. He was cared for and looked after while he was there. He had plenty of room to run, other dogs to play with, and doggie pools for the hot days. Pictures and videos were sent to me while I was away as well which was nice!! I would recommend her if you are looking for someone to watch your dog.”
“I brought our dog Yukon for daycare to Paula & Bill today, and I were a little worried at the beginning since my dog has strong separation anxiety. To my surprise, Yukon adapted so well in new environment. He felt comfortable very quickly, and had great time with Paula,Bill and their two dogs Marty &Ginger. iIt was clear he was well cared for and given lots of attention. It means so much to us to find a loving, patient, and responsible family to take care of our fur baby. We truly appreciate the warm and safe environment they provide. We definitely will come back again! Highly recommend!”
About: I love any type of animal and will provide it with the best care possible. We would go on long walks and play all day! Big, small, medium you name it I will love your dog or cat! I have been around dogs my whole life and would love to care for yours. I am currently a nurse in the area and use Rover when I am away at work so I would love to give back to the community and watch other pups while you are away! I know how difficult it is to find a trustworthy and reliable sitter and always want to treat your pups like my own! I will make sure to treat your home and pet with respect and follow all instructions left to properly care for your fur baby and make sure they get everything they need!
