“Daniel & Rachel are amazing boarders. They took such great care of my Rottweiler Mia. I had an issue with timing for drop off/ pick up and they were very accommodating. This was Mia's first time being boarded. They took excellent care of Mia for all those days and during that time even were able to introduce her to leash walking which she had never done as she uses an invisible fence on my property and had never been leashed. They even provided information on the exact harness that was used, and I bought my own. Besides how great they took care of her providing her with toys, interaction, attention, and walks I also received daily pics of Mia playing, going to the dog park, etc. They kept me apprised as to how she was doing making my time away worry free & less anxious. If you desire individual care & attention for your dog then Daniel & Rachel are definitely the top choice! Excellent people and excellent communication!”
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Arya as a dog sitter, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Arya was outstanding in his communication throughout the entire process, making sure I was informed with everything regarding my dogs. His knowledge of dog behavior and nutrition was impressive; I learned so much from our insightful conversations! He provided valuable feedback on my dogs' habits and needs, which I truly appreciated. I look forward to working with Arya again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a knowledgeable dog sitter!”
“Kaitlyn did an amazing job caring for our husky, Rocco. We were nervous to leave our baby as this was the first time we ever boarded him but she sent me lots of pictures and he looked like he was having a blast with the other dogs and even had a couple husky friends!! She even de shedded him and bathed him for us, he looks amazing and was wagging his tail leaving there. We will be using her again in the future :)”
“Brittni went beyond my expectations when caring for my precious Simon! She is a very loving, dependable caregiver and provided regular daily feedback on his stay. I highly recommend her and hope to be able to book with her again in the future.”
“Sooki had a great experience with Deanna and even made some new friends. Deanna was excellent; welcoming and reassuring--she sent daily updates and photos and answered questions promptly. All in all, a wonderful place for dogs to feel at home. 5-stars! I will definitely book again with Deanna.”
“Amazing! Brandon was super friendly, informative, and helpful throughout my dog’s entire stay. I was a bit nervous since I’ve never boarded my dog before. Brandon definitely put me at ease and sent me several photos daily with updates. My dog had a great vacation there playing with the other dogs. I am very grateful to Brandon for such a positive experience.”
“Wendy was awesome with Grace and showed her lots of love! Grace seemed to enjoy coming back to Wendy's home after our first meeting to play with the other dogs in Wendy's fantastic fenced in yard where Grace could run to her heart's content! Wendy is very knowledgeable about dogs and shared some great training tips. She is very personable and accommodating and sent photos & videos. I highly recommend Wendy! We are going to use her again for a 16 day stay.”
“Alayna was super kind and responsive. Sent lots of pictures of my pup while I was gone! My dog just ran right into her house when I dropped her off, so I knew it was going to go well. I plan to utilize her services in the future!”
“Amazing as always! Terrence gets so excited when we pull up to Karma’s house. He has such a great time with her and she really meets his needs and gives him a fun vacation when I’m out of town.”
“Ronda is an amazing dog sitter!! She was friendly with us as well as the dog. I felt confident after the play meet because she let our good dog kairi run around in every room and outside. The house was very clean, freshly scented and safe for dogs. We were sent pictures everyday without asking or bothering her. We had no complaints for a whole 9 days on vacation to California. We will always contact her for future dog sitting no matter the duration. We trust her and she’s a good, nice, modern, casual, and sweet person. Easy to talk with and recommend her for sure upon being strangers. Ronda watched our pitbull with confidence with all the true information about Kairi. It worked out. Thank you so much!!”
“Highly recommend 10/10. Chelsea made the experience of leaving our Cats with a sitter seamless and amazing. She went over and beyond to ensure that the animals were comfortable while making sure that we were also comfortable. If you are looking for a sitter, I suggest Chelsea!”
About: Hi I’m Hayley! I have about a year of Rover experience, doing doggie drop ins and walks. A little bit about me: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs nearly my entire life. I’ve never met a cat I didn’t love! I have two super friendly poodle mixes Nova and Arlo. Not only have I taken care of cats/dogs for 20+ years, I’m also the first to volunteer to care for my friends and neighbors beloved pets. I once babysat a neighbors 30 outdoor cats! I also have experience with senior cats and dogs. My expertise with dogs are home visits, walking and fetch or playing. I have a toddler who also loves animals and will accompany me at times, so a friendly dog is a MUST. I will watch one small/medium dog at my home in Ravenna prior to meeting them to ensure they get along with my pups. I treat my pets like family members, and would love to care for yours as well! I work a flexible hybrid schedule so I’m willing to work with your schedule. I’m available for overnight doggy daycare at my home for one family friendly pup if you’re out of town. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly pups to keep your dog company. They love to play! I’m willing and able to crate if needed as well.
“Miko had a great time with Desia. She was able to watch him last minute while we went to see family out of town. We received many pictures and videos with updates on our sweet baby which made us not stress as much about leaving him.”
“Maya is great with the dog. She takes a good care of my dog Maddie. She sent pictures every day to keep us up to date. I would definitely send my dog to her next time when we need and certainly recommend her to everyone who needs a dog care.”
“Amanda was a fantastic choice to watch our Corgi, Regi while we were out of town for a couple of days. Amanda was very easy to coordinate and communicate with, she provided us with daily updates and even a picture of Regi having a great time with her family. Amanda and her family treated Regi like she was their own. We will definitely use her services again, and would recommend her to anyone. Thanks again.”
“She was awesome. Very friendly and her dog was very playful and friendly. Her family is awesome with animals and my dog loved them. She sent photos while we were gone of my dog playing with the others. Would highly recommend her”
“I was super nervous about leaving my puppy Simba for the first time. Zachary and his family took great care of him. I love that the backyard is fenced in and the dogs are able to run and play. When I picked my puppy up, he wasvery relaxed and calm and you can tell he had a good time I will definitely book with Zachary and his family for all of my future dog sitting needs.”
“Kristen was amazing with our Koko. She was always updating us on her day. She liked being there so much that she did not have her usual excitement upon seeing us. I'm so glad we found her and we will definitely be using her when we need to be away. She also got along really well with Kristen's fur babies.”
“I love my puppy like a kid and Freddy was happy to see me when we picked him up and cried when we left . I will be happy to have Isabel watch Freddy anytime she is open. She sent us pictures and updates I felt comfortable leaving Freddy with with her .. the down side ? I think Freddy wanted to stay there !!”

About: Hi there! I have been a pet sitter for 7 years with a majority of bookings being cats. I have multi-species experience including: dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, fish, turtles, and rabbits. I am a cat owner myself, and truly enjoy interacting with and observing cats. I am a 4th year student of Animal Behavior with a primary interest in enrichment and welfare. I have experience with: • oral medication administration • pets with anxiety • grooming and nail trimming (*depends on your pet's temperament) • enrichment I am available for drop-in visits, walks, or pet-sittings. ***I do not offer boarding due to my own pet for the safety of all pets involved!
“Allison was absolutely wonderful. She went out of her way to make sure my cats were well cared for and even offered to do little extra things like getting the mail and watering some house plants. I highly recommend Allison and will most definitely be asking her to cat sit again in the future.”
“Meghan was amazing. She completed every visit we requested and was able to accept 2 additional visits due to our delay in returning home. Meghan is very quick to respond to messages and sent wonderful pictures of our cats at each visit. Meghan allowed us to be away from our fur babies without worry about them. Highly recommend Meghan and will definitely call on her again when we go out of town.”
About: As an adult, I had 4 kitties for over 20 years. (I miss them every day.) Not only can I handle feeding, watering, and scooping, I can give oral medications and do subcutaneous injections as well.
About: I’ve been around all sorts of animals for my whole life and have a passion for caring for them. My family used to have horses, goats, birds, turtles, hamsters, squirrels, dogs, and cats growing up. My mom has been breeding German Shepards consistently for about 5 years now. I’ve helped her raise numerous litters and have spent countless hours playing with puppies. We also have 9 dogs total, 8 being German Shepards and one little dog, so I am more than comfortable taking care of dogs and happy to do so. If I were to stay over to watch your animals I could provide care for them up until 9 in the morning and when I return home from work at around 3:30. That would be Monday through Friday and then I have complete availability on the weekends. A few of our dogs stay inside during the day and night. Then our other dogs each have their own kennels that are big enough to run around in. We crate them separately at night. We also have a big backyard that is fenced in, where they can roam around and play.
“It's scary entrusting the animals you love (and your house keys!) to someone you don't know. We placed our faith in Rover.com and set up a meeting with Samm. We liked her immediately and our animals loved her. Her compassion for and experience with animals was evident. We were able to head off on vacation with no worries. While we were away, she texted photos of our pets and wrote updates daily. She was always available by text when we had questions. She spent the nights with our pets and provided playtime for them in the afternoons. She brought in the mail/packages and kept an eye on the house. She wasn't just a "babysitter" for our "fur kids", she offered us some really great pet behavior observations, training advice, and equipment suggestions. She left our home exactly like she found it. Most importantly, WE CAME HOME TO HAPPY PETS!!!! We cannot say enough wonderful things about Samm. We will be booking her again in the future!”
“Carrie recently helped take care of my cat while we were out of town for the weekend. She did a great job! Carrie gave us updates and sent pictures, which I greatly appreciated. She is warm, friendly, and loves animals!”

I follow their routine as closely as possible. Walks, , feedings, bathroom breaks, playtime, and rest are all done on schedule.

I would definitely recommend to anyone and wouldn't hesitate to book again. Thank you again for the care you gave to our pup for the day!!!”

About: I've been an animal lover with pets my entire life. Recently, my husband and I lost our beloved dog, Sanders, of 15 years; and while our home is now empty from his loss, we find we have the space in our home and our hearts to care for other animals. Your pet will be treated as part of the family while in our care. I have experience as a lifelong animal lover and pet owner, but have also worked at various animal care facilities. Aside from spoiling our dear doggo boy Sanders, I've worked for an adoption program at a rescue organization for 6 years, as a Veterinary Technician for 4 and my husband has volunteered at the local dog shelter for the last 6 months. We are familiar with all breeds, sizes and ages; can administer medicine and follow strict feeding regimens, and understand the individual care needed for each animals differences. **I do require a meet and greet beforehand to make sure your pet will be comfortable while in our home, thank you for understanding! I work 2 days a week, with the option to bring pets to the office with me. The rest of my free time is open to fill with whatever your furry family needs! Because of the extreme flexibility, I am able to play with, walk, run or whatever your pet prefers, as often as they need! Our home is on a 1 acre grassy plot, on a quiet street. There are only 2 other houses on our street, so there is zero traffic! It is a quiet, safe neighborhood and a child-free home. We will gather information from you ahead of time to make sure the house is safe from any allergens, hazards or other standards you may have.
“Zarina took very good care of our fur babies. Even though my pups are painfully shy, she did well with them. I appreciate her and I will ask her to watch our pups again when in town in November.”
“Maya did a great job with Merlin. Not only did she take good care of him but gave him some much needed play time. She even found some new food for him that he loves. Maya went above and beyond.”
“Sandra was a lifesaver. Accepted my emergency request at the last minute. Allowed me to pick up the dogs at an insane time of night (10:30pm). Her house is the perfect set up with a lovely fenced yard. She gets five gold stars!”
About: I’m a recent college graduate who loves dogs even more than people! I recently lost my puppy due to bone cancer he developed early on in his life. I’ve been around big and small dogs almost my entire life and would love to get to interact with more puppies (I always call dogs puppies because I see all dogs as puppies lol). Since I was a kid I’ve always felt I’ve had a deep connection to dogs and have always been able to understand what they need and want. Whether the dogs need a bath or need to go on a walk every hour on the hour I’m up for the commitment. I’m not afraid of dogs of any size and I’m ready to give my love and compassion to as many dogs as I possibly can. I work from home so I can essentially work from home anywhere as long as there is wifi available. I would like to begin with 2 days a week and if I feel the schedule and chemistry is right I could increase the days. I’m very good with dogs and if they are already on a schedule, I am happy to keep them on it. I’m a very big cuddled especially with dogs so I would mostly sit on a couch or table and keep an eye on the pet while I work and if there’s a communicative sign that they need to go outside I will take them right out. I am not on a tight schedule so I can take your pet out as often as they need.

About: Hi there! I have been a pet sitter since I was 14, with multi-species experience including: dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, fish, turtles, and rabbits. I am a life long pet owner as well. I am in my 4th year of studying Animal Behavior, which feeds my interest in enrichment and proper welfare for all animals.

I will send photos of your pet when I arrive and leave to offer some peace of mind.

Drop-ins are similar where the pet will be taken outside for the restroom if needed and have some playtime to let out some energy. For pet sitting jobs, I tend to ask more questions about your pet to get a better understanding of their needs as well as anything else that will need taken care of such as collecting the mail, or watering plants. No matter the species, each visit will include playing, treats, and lots of pets! When entering or leaving your home, I ensure that the key is placed in the correct spot (to prevent lockouts!) after locking to keep your pet and home safe.

I make sure they’re walked, fed, and cared for. From early morning potty breaks to evening cuddle time, I’m used to sticking to a consistent routine. I also handle grooming, playtime, and administering medication when needed. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their routine as closely as possible. Walks, , feedings, bathroom breaks, playtime, and rest are all done on schedule. I always pay attention to their behavior and body language so I can meet their needs, especially if they’re feeling anxious or shy. I clean up after them, keep their space tidy, and give lots of affection and attention. Every pet gets treated like family, no matter where they are.
“Brandy clearly loves dogs and mine took to her right away. I love getting the updates and photos from their walks. You do want a reliable and flexible person taking care of your dog and she is that. Highly recommend Brandy!”
About: I have been a certified dog trainer for 15 years, a boarder/sitter for 10 years, and a foster for 2. I do what I love! Pups are my full-time job so fitting them into my lifestyle is never inconvenient. Training, boarding, daytime care, or I can host your pet's birthday party with a cake or pupcakes, decorations, and fun games! All pets that come to my home are treated like my own. We have 2 acres for plenty of play space, walks, runs, and exploring. I am a dog foster and often have dogs in my home, but am able to also have your pet/pets as the only ones if preferred!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was little. We’ve always had up to 5 dogs at a time. I know the temperaments on dogs can change and it takes time for them to warm up to new people and surroundings. I’ve had experience with small, big, young and senior dogs! I have a car, I work 5 days a week, but I’m free before and after work, I love walking and getting out of the house! I take care of my dogs on a daily basis, all the essentials cares such as feeding, watering, bathing, taking them outside and sometimes walks.
About: I’ve been around all sorts of animals for my whole life and have a passion for caring for them. My family used to have horses, goats, birds, turtles, hamsters, squirrels, dogs, and cats growing up. My mom has been breeding German Shepards consistently for about 5 years now. I’ve helped her raise numerous litters and have spent countless hours playing with puppies. We also have 9 dogs total, 8 being German Shepards and one little dog, so I am more than comfortable taking care of dogs and happy to do so. If I were to stay over to watch your animals I could provide care for them up until 9 in the morning and when I return home from work at around 3:30. That would be Monday through Friday and then I have complete availability on the weekends. A few of our dogs stay inside during the day and night. Then our other dogs each have their own kennels that are big enough to run around in. We crate them separately at night. We also have a big backyard that is fenced in, where they can roam around and play.
About: I've been an animal lover with pets my entire life. Recently, my husband and I lost our beloved dog, Sanders, of 15 years; and while our home is now empty from his loss, we find we have the space in our home and our hearts to care for other animals. Your pet will be treated as part of the family while in our care. I have experience as a lifelong animal lover and pet owner, but have also worked at various animal care facilities. Aside from spoiling our dear doggo boy Sanders, I've worked for an adoption program at a rescue organization for 6 years, as a Veterinary Technician for 4 and my husband has volunteered at the local dog shelter for the last 6 months. We are familiar with all breeds, sizes and ages; can administer medicine and follow strict feeding regimens, and understand the individual care needed for each animals differences. **I do require a meet and greet beforehand to make sure your pet will be comfortable while in our home, thank you for understanding! I work 2 days a week, with the option to bring pets to the office with me. The rest of my free time is open to fill with whatever your furry family needs! Because of the extreme flexibility, I am able to play with, walk, run or whatever your pet prefers, as often as they need! Our home is on a 1 acre grassy plot, on a quiet street. There are only 2 other houses on our street, so there is zero traffic! It is a quiet, safe neighborhood and a child-free home. We will gather information from you ahead of time to make sure the house is safe from any allergens, hazards or other standards you may have.
About: I have volunteered at rescue shelters multiple times and have dealt with many different-aged dogs, old, young etc. There were over 50+ dogs so I would say I very much handle multiple pets well. I am in college right now at Hiram college, I am a junior and have classes Monday thru Friday. Monday,Wednesday and Friday I have class from 11:40-2 and Tuesday and Thursday I have class from 9:40-12 I have had multiple dogs that needed crate training so you will have no problem with that, I will also keep your fur baby very good company.
About: I have 5 years of veterinary medicine experience and have fallen in love with taking care of pets! This side of animal caretaking removes the medical aspect and allows the animal industry to be a little more fun. I have wide open availability! I am currently self employed and make my own schedule so I can fit almost anything into my week ahead. The knowledge for safety is extremely important when taking care of someone else’s pet. I am able to read situations and be able to tell what and when a pet needs something. Reading a pet’s body language is super important and goes along with everyone’s safety.
About: Hi, I’m Steffi! I’m a reliable, calm, and attentive pet caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and helping them feel safe and cared for while their humans are away. I have experience with dog walking and drop-in visits, and I’m especially mindful of following routines, instructions, and each pet’s individual needs. I’m patient, observant, and respectful of both pets and homes, and I prioritize clear communication and consistency. Whether your pet needs a walk, a check-in, feeding, or some extra company, I aim to provide care that feels steady, thoughtful, and stress-free. A pup that loves hikes or extensive plays will have a great time with me. Pups that enjoy lounging in the house are also no problem :) I have a bachelor's degree in business, I have been a flight attendant, a sales specialist, and a customer service rep. I prefer to spend my time outdoors as much as possible :) I am currently self-employed and am able to have a flexible schedule. I enjoy getting outside, whether that's with a pup or on my own! I do not accept dogs in my own home, but I am available and happy to care for your pet inside of your own home.
About: Hello! My name is Angela :) I love animals and taking care of them. I can be shy with people but with your fur babies i’m an open book:) I’ve had dogs most of my life and just pets in general. I have taken care of sick and senior animals as well. Currently no dogs or cats live in my home besides my lovely guinea pig max. I’m available any day with times in the early mornings and late nights and on the weekends I am very flexible! I’d love to take care of your dog(s) and/or kitties and be a part of their daily routine. Hopefully I can make their day and mine! If you have any questions or concerns you can contact me on my number or on the app. I hope you have a nice day/evening! (Background check is passed) I can visit your pet before and after my work schedule. I am also very flexible on the weekends or if you have any last minute changes. I have a guinea pig named max that I take care of every day! I make sure to greet animals with a smile on my face and a very calm manner. It can be scary for some pets to see a new face in the house when the owners are gone but I treat them just as well and make sure they are taken good care of before you come back :) I take safety processions and make sure they are always let outside if there is a fence or leash at the house and they are fed according to directions if needed.

“Daniel & Rachel are amazing boarders. They took such great care of my Rottweiler Mia. I had an issue with timing for drop off/ pick up and they were very accommodating. This was Mia's first time being boarded. They took excellent care of Mia for all those days and during that time even were able to introduce her to leash walking which she had never done as she uses an invisible fence on my property and had never been leashed. They even provided information on the exact harness that was used, and I bought my own. Besides how great they took care of her providing her with toys, interaction, attention, and walks I also received daily pics of Mia playing, going to the dog park, etc. They kept me apprised as to how she was doing making my time away worry free & less anxious. If you desire individual care & attention for your dog then Daniel & Rachel are definitely the top choice! Excellent people and excellent communication!”
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Arya as a dog sitter, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Arya was outstanding in his communication throughout the entire process, making sure I was informed with everything regarding my dogs. His knowledge of dog behavior and nutrition was impressive; I learned so much from our insightful conversations! He provided valuable feedback on my dogs' habits and needs, which I truly appreciated. I look forward to working with Arya again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a knowledgeable dog sitter!”
“Kaitlyn did an amazing job caring for our husky, Rocco. We were nervous to leave our baby as this was the first time we ever boarded him but she sent me lots of pictures and he looked like he was having a blast with the other dogs and even had a couple husky friends!! She even de shedded him and bathed him for us, he looks amazing and was wagging his tail leaving there. We will be using her again in the future :)”
“Brittni went beyond my expectations when caring for my precious Simon! She is a very loving, dependable caregiver and provided regular daily feedback on his stay. I highly recommend her and hope to be able to book with her again in the future.”
“Amazing! Brandon was super friendly, informative, and helpful throughout my dog’s entire stay. I was a bit nervous since I’ve never boarded my dog before. Brandon definitely put me at ease and sent me several photos daily with updates. My dog had a great vacation there playing with the other dogs. I am very grateful to Brandon for such a positive experience.”
“Alayna was super kind and responsive. Sent lots of pictures of my pup while I was gone! My dog just ran right into her house when I dropped her off, so I knew it was going to go well. I plan to utilize her services in the future!”
“Amazing as always! Terrence gets so excited when we pull up to Karma’s house. He has such a great time with her and she really meets his needs and gives him a fun vacation when I’m out of town.”
“Ronda is an amazing dog sitter!! She was friendly with us as well as the dog. I felt confident after the play meet because she let our good dog kairi run around in every room and outside. The house was very clean, freshly scented and safe for dogs. We were sent pictures everyday without asking or bothering her. We had no complaints for a whole 9 days on vacation to California. We will always contact her for future dog sitting no matter the duration. We trust her and she’s a good, nice, modern, casual, and sweet person. Easy to talk with and recommend her for sure upon being strangers. Ronda watched our pitbull with confidence with all the true information about Kairi. It worked out. Thank you so much!!”
“Highly recommend 10/10. Chelsea made the experience of leaving our Cats with a sitter seamless and amazing. She went over and beyond to ensure that the animals were comfortable while making sure that we were also comfortable. If you are looking for a sitter, I suggest Chelsea!”
About: Hi I’m Hayley! I have about a year of Rover experience, doing doggie drop ins and walks. A little bit about me: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs nearly my entire life. I’ve never met a cat I didn’t love! I have two super friendly poodle mixes Nova and Arlo. Not only have I taken care of cats/dogs for 20+ years, I’m also the first to volunteer to care for my friends and neighbors beloved pets. I once babysat a neighbors 30 outdoor cats! I also have experience with senior cats and dogs. My expertise with dogs are home visits, walking and fetch or playing. I have a toddler who also loves animals and will accompany me at times, so a friendly dog is a MUST. I will watch one small/medium dog at my home in Ravenna prior to meeting them to ensure they get along with my pups. I treat my pets like family members, and would love to care for yours as well! I work a flexible hybrid schedule so I’m willing to work with your schedule. I’m available for overnight doggy daycare at my home for one family friendly pup if you’re out of town. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly pups to keep your dog company. They love to play! I’m willing and able to crate if needed as well.
“Miko had a great time with Desia. She was able to watch him last minute while we went to see family out of town. We received many pictures and videos with updates on our sweet baby which made us not stress as much about leaving him.”
“Maya is great with the dog. She takes a good care of my dog Maddie. She sent pictures every day to keep us up to date. I would definitely send my dog to her next time when we need and certainly recommend her to everyone who needs a dog care.”
“She was awesome. Very friendly and her dog was very playful and friendly. Her family is awesome with animals and my dog loved them. She sent photos while we were gone of my dog playing with the others. Would highly recommend her”
“I was super nervous about leaving my puppy Simba for the first time. Zachary and his family took great care of him. I love that the backyard is fenced in and the dogs are able to run and play. When I picked my puppy up, he wasvery relaxed and calm and you can tell he had a good time I will definitely book with Zachary and his family for all of my future dog sitting needs.”
“Kristen was amazing with our Koko. She was always updating us on her day. She liked being there so much that she did not have her usual excitement upon seeing us. I'm so glad we found her and we will definitely be using her when we need to be away. She also got along really well with Kristen's fur babies.”
“I love my puppy like a kid and Freddy was happy to see me when we picked him up and cried when we left . I will be happy to have Isabel watch Freddy anytime she is open. She sent us pictures and updates I felt comfortable leaving Freddy with with her .. the down side ? I think Freddy wanted to stay there !!”

About: Over the past 20 years, I’ve cared for three of my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of life—from potty training and high energy phases to gentle senior care. I’ve also raised kittens into senior cats, so I’m comfortable with feline personalities and needs as well. Beyond my own pets, I’ve regularly helped care for the dogs and cats of family and friends. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, love, and attention I gave my own. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and provide a calm, present environment while you’re away. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own space. I take a patient, gentle approach and pay close attention to each animal’s unique temperament—whether that means playtime and energy for a young pup or a quiet, reassuring presence for a shy cat. In addition to everyday care, I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral meds and insulin injections for diabetic cats. I understand how important consistency, attentiveness, and trust are when caring for pets with medical needs, and I’m confident providing that level of care. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends over the years, helping with walks, feedings, routines, and lots of affection. Every pet I care for is treated with the same love and attention I gave my own. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a calm, loving experience while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities, whether I’m caring for them in your home or welcoming them into mine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and cats who are accustomed to other animals, creating a calm and welcoming environment. I’m mindful of introductions and each pet’s personality to ensure everyone feels safe and at ease. Dogs are always leashed for daily walks, and I have a large yard that allows for extra exercise and playtime in a secure space. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to closely supervise pets, maintain their routines, and give them consistent attention and companionship. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special preferences you share. I also offer meet-and-greets before bookings so you and your pet can feel comfortable and confident. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, attentive hands.
“Lindsay was an amazing sitter for my baby Theodore. She was attentive, patient, sweet, and also gives updates on how he was doing the whole time. I got daily pictures of him and it made me really happy. I will book her again and again. Highly recommend.”
