Highly-rated overnight sitters - Negley
“Laurie was wonderful with Gracie! I was a little nervous letting Gracie stay away but from the moment we had our meet & greet I felt very comfortable. Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”
“Heather is the greatest dog sitter I have ever had. My dogs love going to her house and love living with a family while I am away. Her whole family is very loving and attentive my pets and treats them as if they belonged to them. Heather is so nice and I was immediately relaxed upon meeting her. I will be using Heather ever time I go out of town. A+++++++!!”

“Anthony and Leslie were fantastic. Highly recommend! Our two dogs got plenty of playtime and walks. Constant updates with pictures and videos. Will certainly use again!”
“Stephanie was amazing with our not so easy pups. She made our daycation relaxing and stress free! We got pictures and updates all day long. Would highly recommend!”

“On very short notice, Michael was able to take in my senior dog and 3 month old puppy. This was our first time using Michael and he was very responsive and friendly. He was accommodating of our drop off/pick-up times and kept us updated on how the dogs were doing. They both seemed to have fun and were well taken care of.”
“Amanda is AMAZING!! She takes all proper precautions to ensure safety of her clients and their fur babies. I met her prior to her keeping Nike but did not need her service at the time. I had an emergency come up and without hesitation she was willing to care for Nike. She sent picture updates and stayed in consistent communication. I thank her so much for alleviating my stress level while I was out of town. Highly recommend”

“We had great experience with Jena and Nick. Dexter received lots of love, personal attention, playtime, daily walks. Their pet Sebastian was a very nice dog and became great buddy of Dexter in a short time. They have a very nice and clean fenced backyard too. Dexter really enjoyed his time with Jena, Nick and Sebastian… We really appreciate their effort in making sure Dexter felt it at home…Thank you Jane, Nick and Sebastian for being so lovely to Dexter.”
“Oh wow, booking a stay for our dog with Armida has officially set the bar incredibly high for what great dog care can and should look like! From before the booking even started, she wanted to know the interests and preferences of our pup, and planned around it all, including her own sleeping arrangements to ensure our pup was comfortable!! She pampered our pup so well, it felt that the dog was welcomed as a part of their family for the week! I cannot recommend Armida highly enough! One of the sweetest, kindest people I've ever met, too. We will forever be using Armida for our dog care needs for as long as she is available!!”
“My dog went back to Lindsey’s while I was on a recent trip. He had a great time there with her and the family! I loved seeing the photo updates and I always know that he’s in good hands there!”

About: I'm a huge animal lover - big and small! I've had dogs and cats my whole life. We have a sweet cat who absolutely loves every dog that comes through our home. We currently have a Great Dane and Great Pyrenees as well as chickens, 1 guinea pig, 2 rabbits and fish. I'm all about making sure our babies are happy and healthy and living the best life we can provide to them.

“Cassandra is a great doggie caretaker. My puppy was happy and exhausted when she came home! I enjoyed the pictures, it’s nice to know what she is doing while away from home. Thanks Cassandra!”
“Easy to get ahold of. Responds quickly. Makes sure you know your fur babies are happy! A picture is worth a 1000 words. She sends often. Outdoes private kennels by far. My pups were able to interact with her pups and kids. So thankful for this service.”

“Jocelyn was wonderful with my cat, Possum. Although he didn’t come out and interact with her she was as able to get a photo daily. He was typically under the bed or couch😊. I would love to have her back in the future.”
“My first time using Rover was an excellent experience due to finding Nicole to take care of my two cats. She is trustworthy & caring, two things I value most when looking after my girls. Thank you Nicole, lucky to have found you ❤️”
“Cassandra was WONDERFUL! My cats were happy when I got home, but I could tell that they were lovingly cared for. Cassandra sent me pictures every day and messaged me to see if there was anything else that she could do for me. The house was immaculate when I came home and the sheets were washed. I would HIGHLY recommend this lovely caring young lady!”
“Couldn’t be happier with Halie with my fur babies. I trust her in my home and with my babies. Love that Rover allows her to provide pics and the amount of potty/pee breaks while she is there. Also has her check in and check out when her visit is complete. Highly recommend Rover and Halie 100%!”
“Maya is an awesome nanny for our kitty. While we were traveling to Yellowstone National Park, Maya kindly helped take care of our little girl—our beloved cat, Meme. She kept us updated with photos and stories of Meme’s daily activities. As a talented writer, Maya beautifully captured their moments together with vivid and heartwarming descriptions. Meme quickly warmed up to Maya and settled in with ease. She’s been eating well—so well, in fact, that she’s noticeably heavier than before! We’re truly grateful for the time and care that Maya and her husband devoted to looking after her. Thanks to their support, we were able to enjoy our trip with complete peace of mind.”
“Tori was a life savor, she took care of our very anxious and shy cat for the last 4 days. An unexpected trip put us in a true bind, I had reached out rather late in the night..she responded immediately and assured me that Penny will be taken care of and to not worry. It was such a relief! She came home, picked up Penny and shared constant updates thru the week..she was very much in tune with my state of mind as well and reassured me every step of the way that my pet is in good hands. I cannot thank Tori enough. Great communicator, has a lot of experience and is a very caring sitter. I am so relieved I found her and cannot recommend her enough to others.”

I believe I am a very reliable and trustworthy dog sitter. I do work full time but can make plenty of time for any of your animals needs. My hours do vary but if we have compatible schedules, count me in. Whatever is asked of me, trust and believe it will be taken care of. Your fur baby needs taken out for a walk, done. Litter needs changed, done. Food and water needs refilled, done. I am a very reliable and dependable individual.

“Cortney rocks! Our cats absolutely love her. Everyone comes out for food when she visits. They all gather around to play and she happily obliges. We get pictures, updates, and fun stories about our fur babies while we’re away. So grateful to have found her on Rover. 👏🏻❤️”
“Paige was an outstanding sitter for Princess, and a very separation anxiety, Panache. She made sure that his food was upstairs under my bed, so that he could access it. It does take her awhile to answer texts from me, but her care of my pets and home was excellent.”

Whether your cat is playful or prefers quiet companionship, I provide gentle, reliable care and treat every cat like my own so you can feel completely at ease.
“Tabatha was a blessing! I felt at ease while on vacation with Tabatha caring for our pets. From what I can tell she kept them on their toes and probably did a better job then I would do! I never expected so many pictures of them either playing, eating, or just being goofy. Would definitely recommend and hope she's available next time!”

I now have a cat of my own who is truly my entire world so I understand how much trust goes into leaving your pets in someone else’s care. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals. I find caring for them incredibly rewarding. I’ll treat your cat with the same patience, attention, and love that I would want someone to give my own. And I promise to send pics while you’re gone! 😊

Perfect for high energy dogs - Negley
“My dog Arthur has very specific needs and doesn’t feel comfortable with just anybody. Arthur seemed to settle right in, and take over. He even ate his dinner which he doesn’t do when he’s nervous or anxious. I’m hoping that Chris will be available again sometime when I would like to get out of the house. Extremely pleased!”
“We love Wendy. My only regret is that I didn't find her sooner. We've moved too far away now, but she was so great to help us with last minute doggy daycare when we had a day of house showings before our move. We will miss her. She pampers the pets that stay with her. It's obvious that they become part of her extended family. You will not regret booking Wendy, I promise.”
“Basil came home tired and worn out. I think she had a good time staying at Heather's with her man, and the kids! Would recommend her! Shes punctual with replying back, very informative, and fairly prices, and she accommodated basil with her special need.”
“Anthony was great watching my dog. Very responsible and caring. I can tell Finnegan got plenty of play time by the photos and videos. Would not think twice about letting Finnegan stay there again. Awesome!”
About: I have been caring for pets my whole life. I have always had my own pets as well so I understand all of the responsibilities that go into caring for an animal. I love dogs and have experience working with them both small and large, ranging in ages from puppy to elderly. I love helping them get their daily exercise and helping them learn new tricks using positive reinforcement. I love going outside with them and allowing them to either run or even play a good game of fetch. I am also currently a cat mom myself so I also am capable of caring for cats as well. I realize that cats are both very independent but at the same time require affection as well. Your pet will be taken care of and loved as if it were my own.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 18. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets.

About: I have a dog of my own. I potty trained her and I also taught her several tricks. She is a very active dog but it's nothing I can’t handle. I walk my dog 3-5x everyday depending on the weather. I also fill their water bowl and food bowl every morning. A few times throughout the week I go to the dog park. Everyone in my home including my dog is friendly when it comes to animals. We will treat yours like family because we are a very dog-loving family.
“Michael was a fantastic sitter for Beau's first day at doggy daycare. He was able to read Beau's body language and took the time to get Beau comfortable with him. You can definitely tell he knows what he's doing.”
“Alisha has been my regular sitter for about 2 months now & I feel very lucky to have found her! My dog, Cooper, is treated like part of the family & is always worn out when he gets home. I feel confident that he is safe & I still get consistent updates on what they’re up to all day. She is one of the best you could find!”

“Sherri was the absolute BEST with my Shih-Tzu Izzy. We did a meet and greet 1st which was so nice to do prior to just dropping Izzy off. Sherri texted me updates with pics of Izzy & even took her for a walk! I felt extremely comfortable leaving Izzy in Sheri’s care. I could tell how much Izzy enjoyed herself being there and we will definitely be back!! 😊”
“Very nice folks, couldn’t have been more confident leaving Mamabear in their care. Very nice home, and their resident dog Thor was just a gentle giant and a sweetheart. They even offered her a swim in the pool! Will definitely use again. Thanks!”
“I hate to repeat myself, but I can't say enough great things about Briana. She goes above and beyond in every way each time Libbie visits. During the stay, I receive updates with cute photos and videos about how she is doing. It is obvious my dog is genuinely loved. Her assistant, Duke, is a gentle, big boy. Libbie loves hanging with him. He seems to know exactly what play style to provide. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to book with Briana. If you are looking for someone who treats your dog like family, look no further. BUT know I will be super upset if you take my next booking spot!!”
“I was in town for the Billy Joel concert, and Cassandra and her family were the best dogsitters for my girls' night out! Vinny felt completely safe and at home with them, evidenced by his rambunctiousness when I picked him up. (He's usually quiet and cautious in new places, unlike how he is at home.) She was accomodating with the time, and I'm so grateful! She's definitely my first choice when I'm in town!”
“Erin was very responsive. I love that she sends update photos of Litte Hay. She has a bigger dog that get along so well with Little Hay, which is a plus since my little girl loves meeting new friends. Will definitely rebook wirh Erin again.”

Frequent potty breaks/walks are so important and also providing play is just as important. I would care for your pet like my own in regards to playing,walking,cuddling, meal time, and more.
About: Hi, I’m Halie, and I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I had a Black Lab named Jasmine (yes, like the princess from *Aladdin*!), and when she crossed the rainbow bridge, my mom adopted Maggie, a rescued German Shepherd mix. Maggie was spunky, a little wild, and always ready for snuggles. In 2013, I moved from Ohio to Houston, Texas, and saying goodbye to my childhood dog left a hole in my heart. A few months after settling in, I adopted my sweet Coco, a Black Mouth Cur mix. She is affectionate, full of life, and has taught me a lot about caring for dogs with separation anxiety. Shortly after adopting Coco, I began working at a pet resort, where she came to work with me every day and spent her time playing in doggy daycare with her friends while I managed the front desk. I worked there for two years and gained valuable experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Today, Coco and I live in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs recovering from TPLO surgery, administered insulin injections to diabetic dogs, and provided various oral and topical medications. I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attention to detail. As a stay-at-home mom with a daughter who will be going into second grade, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to meet your pet care needs. I would love the opportunity to get to know your furry family members and provide them with the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. I am currently a stay at home mom of 1 daughter who is in second grade. I'm available from around 9am until 3:00 when she gets off the bus. I am free Monday-Friday and occasional weekends and after 3pm if needed. I do not offer in home care but in a clients home I will follow any of the instructions they give me. Wether it is taking your babies on a walk to go potty or playing fetch with them in the yard. I am well versed in medication management and have dealt with 2 dogs who have had TPLO surgeries.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. Currently have 4 herding dogs and chickens. Experience from puppies to seniors. My kids are adults and I have free time from my varying work schedule. Sometimes in I’m hotels around Pittsburgh with idle time during the weekdays and evenings. Im always local Saturday and Sunday. From stopping by to check on your pets and letting them out, to walking or playing, let me know how can I can help out. I am available for afternoons and evenings depending on where my work takes me. I go to Pittsburgh for some weekdays and evenings. I’m always in Ohio on the weekends. I will care for your pets as I would my own. Your instructions and pet’s care are of my utmost importance. Friends have trusted me for years to pet sit.
About: Hi! I’m Izzy, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I grew up with a yellow Labrador, so dogs have always held a special place in my heart. Today, I am a cat owner, which has given me an even greater appreciation for the unique personalities and needs of both dogs and cats. Over the years, I have cared for many pets with special medical needs, including administering oral medications and insulin injections to both dogs and cats. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I will provide the same level of care and patience I would want for my own pets. Pet sitting is currently my full-time job while I pursue my degree online, allowing me to provide dependable, attentive care to every pet I look after. I love spending time outdoors, going on walks, playing fetch, and making sure every pet gets the exercise, affection, and attention they need. If we schedule a meet and greet, there is a $20 booking fee. This helps cover my time and protects my schedule from last-minute cancellations. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out! I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! 🐾💕 I am pursing my degree online with flexible time on my hands! So if you need me I am your girl!! I am just a phone call away!! My clients typically end up having me house and dog sit at the same time. They trust me and if they are away they know they can count on me.

About: I am 23 & have owned and worked with many dogs and cats over the course of 4-5years through doggy daycare/boarding facilities, assisting with obedience training, medical situations, petsitting, and of course owning my own pets as well. Each animal has its own unique personality, traits, and quirks that make them special. Which is what I love about them so much! I work full time at a doggy daycare and have been for the past 3 years! It’s amazing getting to be around so many different dogs each day, I learn something new every day I understand different dogs have different needs, and different owners have different needs for their pets as well. Will do everything to keep the pet as happy and comfortable as possible while it’s people are away

About: Hello! My name is Tabatha Garman, I am the sole owner and operator of Special Paws Pet Care and a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT). As a veterinary technician, I play the nurse role of the veterinary team. I graduated from Kent State University with my Associate's degree in Veterinary Technology in May of 2021 and am currently pursuing my Bachelor's of Integrated Studies focused in animal behavior. While in school for my technician license, I gained various hands-on skills with a variety of animals, from dogs and cats to birds, horses, snakes, and much more. Outside of school, I have trained at numerous veterinary hospitals and gained vital experience in CPR and emergency response. My personal experience caring for animals expands far beyond my education and career, as I have cared for my own, family's, and friend's pets my entire life. As previously mentioned, I have a vast range of experience with different species from small pocket pets and reptiles to large and farm animals. I love working with nearly any species, especially pigs and cows! My medication administration skills are just as vast, including giving various types of injections and fluids, oral pill and liquid administration, topical applications, etc. Any pets with special needs are assured to be taken care of! Specializing in animal behavior, those with unique personalities or who are a bit grumpy or naturally prefer alone time are some of my favorite to work with. I love working to understand them and win them over and am happy to try to work with any type of disposition or behavioral challenges. No job is too big or small. Whether you have a pet that needs daily medication, help getting around, and extra special care, or just want to feel comforted knowing that your furry family member is in great hands, I am happy to care for any and all of them. I am currently dedicating my time to in-home pet care while going to school full-time online, so I am free to fit your pet into my schedule however you may need. While I do personalize my schedule to fit your pet specifically, my typical day is scheduled like this and changed as needed, just to give you a better idea of your pet's time with me: When I arrive, I always spend time making sure your pet is happy, comfortable, and has everything they need. When staying with them overnight, I will keep them company until morning, make sure they have everything they need and get some pets or playtime in, then I will leave as needed to tend to any other appointments, making sure to return to check-in and spend time with them at minimum every 3-4 hours, unless more frequently is needed. Whether you just need a daily check in and play time for your cat while you're away, or if you need someone to take your pup out every couple of hours along with walks and lots of play time, or even if you have an older pup who can't really spend time alone at all, we can definitely make a plan to suit your family purrr-fectly. Your pet's safety is always my top priority. Whether at home, in the car, at the vet, out for a walk, or at the park, I am always extremely diligent to make sure your pet stays safe and sound. I always use doggy seatbelts or enclosures when driving, reflective strips and flashlights at night, ramps and manual assistance for mobility-challenged pups, predator-deterrent to protect them from harm, and vet-approved chews or boredom busters to make sure your pup is happier and healthier when you arrive back home. Out of an abundance of caution, I typically do not have pets I'm watching interact with other pets I'm unfamiliar with (ie: no communal dog parks). In the case that anything does happen while I am with them, I am trained on the safest and most effective way to stop a dog fight, as well as being trained in CPR, emergency triage and response, and homeostatic stabilization. I also always have a list of the nearest emergency hospitals on hand should they ever be needed. I strive to follow all pet-parent's wants and needs for their pets, including whatever training or rules you may have for your pet while they are in my care (crating, treats, toys, etc). If there are any additional safety measures you would like to discuss, just let me know!
About: I’ve had 2+ dogs in my entire life. In my adult life I’ve had 2+ service dogs that travel with me. I am a critical care nurse who has taken pet CPR as far as safety. I have emergency meds as well. Luckily, I have a house with a fences in yard, animal friendly household with spare rooms and a heated/cooled garage/closed/secured garage for any kind of special separation needs (in heat/aggressive breeds/outside animals, etc). Currently off enjoying a break from work, .. . So as of now, my schedule is very flexible. My household/fenced backyard/garage, is sectioned off pretty nicely. So, I have a very flexible availability overall. I am very positive I can meet most requests/needs for boarding/grooming/daycare/etc. So just let me know! I have a three bedroom house with a fenced in backyard, doggie door, heated/cooled garage that is secure and closed off separate from the house with his own doggie door for added space.. is a very accommodating/adaptable layout also self-sufficient if need be, but I should be here the entire time
About: I've been around all different kinds of animals since I was a little kid. So I’ve had 10 + years of animal care experience. I know how to take care of them and animals usually like me. As for professional experience with animals I would say I have 3-5 years of experience, I am currently working at a vet clinic as a veterinary assistant and I have gone to veterinary technician school. I currently have 1 dog and 3 cats. I am currently working full time at a vet clinic. I went to veterinary technician school but for now I’m working as a veterinary assistant. I can watch, walk or sit any day/ any time I have off normally Tuesdays, Sundays I’m also free anytime after 3:30 pm everyday. if u are unsure about a day or time I can watch your pet just message me and we can figure it out together. Im not currently caring for client pets in my home for the safety of my cats. I do offer house sitting at the clients house. If I’m staying at your house or just coming to let out your pet I can feed, water, brush and play with them if you are too busy or you just want your pet to have company I can also do that while you are at work or on a vacation.

“Cassandra is a great doggie caretaker. My puppy was happy and exhausted when she came home! I enjoyed the pictures, it’s nice to know what she is doing while away from home. Thanks Cassandra!”
“Easy to get ahold of. Responds quickly. Makes sure you know your fur babies are happy! A picture is worth a 1000 words. She sends often. Outdoes private kennels by far. My pups were able to interact with her pups and kids. So thankful for this service.”
“Samantha and Ian took wonderful care of our pups while we were on vacation for a week. They sent many updates and photos while we were away. Our dogs didn't want to come home I don't think! We have tried many dog sitters and will only be using Samantha and Ian from here out!”
