“Flynn had the absolute best time with Stephanie and her dogs. I got pictures and updates daily and it made vacationing so much easier knowing he was well taken care of and loved! I will most definitely be using her again!”

“This was Millie’s first time with Vicki. Millie can be anti-social and a bit of a diva, but she did fabulous at Vicki’s. I appreciated the pictures Vicki sent and the updates. I am already rebooking her for Millie’s next visit!”

“We have used Gail for the past couple of years for all of our trips. She does great with my dog and keeps me updated through out the week. And she has never canceled on us which makes me feel confident when I book her so far in advance. Thanks for taking great care of Tiko!”

“Laurie is certainly one of a kind!! You can sense immediately that she is completely vested in making your fur baby her top priority!! Frequent updates and pictures through texts were so reassuring and welcomed. I will not hesitate to have Laurie sit with Sophie again! ♥️?♥️”
“AMAZING FAMILY. They were such a great choice for my girl. All the updates they sent were so awesome. Let alone you can just see the comfort, happiness & fun in my girl. I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home because she was loving it so much! Ava seemed to fit right in with the pack as well as feel right at home with them. Out of all the Rovers we’ve had this by far has been my favorite! ❤️ 🥰”

“Pat is the best! My little guy stayed overnight with her for a week. Each day she sent a picture message so I never worried and stayed at ease. Pat's fur babies are adorable and my Peanut fit right in with them. Whenever I need care for Peanut she will always my first choice.”

“Louis was so scared and nervous the 1st day! I was seriously thinking about cutting my trip short and picking him up, but Doug was so patient with him that by the next day Louis was his happy self again. So thankful this was a great experience for Louis!”

“It was the first time I left Kayla with anyone. On our meet and greet I felt very comfortable with Patti and knew she would take good care of my girl. Patti took excellent care of her. I booked with her because she only takes one pet at a time and she had a fenced in backyard. Patti sent me photos of Kayla fetching her ball which is her most favorite thing. I will definitely use her again.”

“Kristin and her family did a wonderful job with our dog. He is often unsure of other animals but acclimated well to the household from what she said. He was very happy when we picked him up”

“Great couple to watch our pup. We wanted someone with a fenced in yard and other dogs to help socialize and tire our pup out and that’s exactly what we got. Our girl was happy to come back after the initial meet and greet and happy to book with them in the future.”

“There are no words to describe how incredibly grateful I am for Miranda and her services and that she even exists... I almost don't even want to put this all out here because then I have to share her with even more people! However, if I didn't tell it exactly as it is, I would be extremely selfish and feel terrible because someone else could lose out on having the beautiful experience of feeling the peace of mind (.... heart, and soul) to go on a trip and truly know your fur baby is being looked after not only responsibly, but with love and care. Oh, and that they would be having an absolute BLAST and the time of their lives!! I myself was worried my pup (River) wouldn't want to come back home 😂😂!! Miranda graciously took the time to communicate with me and shared many photos and videos of River's time with her and the crew there, and I loved every single second of all of them. Her Instagram page is where it's at too and an absolute must whether your baby is staying with her at the time or not... but definitely while they're staying b/c you get all the enjoyment of seeing them doing all the (very fun) things. Well worth every single penny in every way!! I will not hesitate in any way to have River stay with Miranda again when I go on another trip and I'm actually looking forward to doing so for myself and for River. Miranda, you're amazing and you've got an amazing thing going on... and you're stuck with us forever now 😁❤️🤗”

“George was the best. He took care of my toy poodle with such care. Tallow, my toy poodle, had never been with anyone else. He grew accustomed to George very quickly.. George showed a lot of care for him. I highly recommend him.”

“Athena was very responsive and understanding of Bella’s needs. She also kept in contact with me and even sent me pictures. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her in the future.”

“Melody is loving and knowledgeable about dogs. She truly gave our dog a home to stay in and not just food, water, and shelter. We would not hesitate to have a return booking and we would highly recommend.”

“Always a perfect stay! Louis has such a great time, loves being with your family!! So appreciative of all the pictures/ videos we get. Cant wait for next time! <3”

“My dog had a great time with Jessica and her family. Jessica was quick to respond to messages and sent daily pictures. Our dog was well taken care of while we were away.”

“First off I have always had my fears about boarding. I have always avoided going anywhere overnight but I had a little work trip come up and so I had to find somewhere for my Eska. I was very happy with Tiffany and her communication with me while she had my girl. I couldn't be happier with the care she gave my Eska. I now feel I can comfortably board in the future and feel she will be in good hands.”

“We have been booking with Heather for our 5 animals for years now. Heather and her husband watch our 4 dogs and cat once a year for our vacation. I schedule my vacations around them now because I don’t trust anyone else with my kids. I love that they always send daily updates with pictures and let me know any concerns they have (my one dog is getting old and stiff. Heather’s husband told me that he was bumping into things and might be developing some eyesight issues). They are very attentive. One year my cat and one dog got into a tiff (as they do sometimes) and Heather immediately contacted me and told me about it and told me she separated them to cool down. I have a very nervous rescue that does not like anyone but I get pictures of her laying with Heather and her husband. I have only ever seen this dog hug my husband or I in the 3 years we have had her but she hugs them. This tells me all I need to know since Ivy doesn’t trust anyone. My dogs seem to feel comfortable when I leave them there and not panicked. My cat and older dog take medicine daily and Heather gets my stubborn cat to take her medicine with no problem. Your pets are safe with them.”

“Sauddi was amazing! She was incredibly kind and helpful during the booking process and made sure we both had the information we needed ahead of time. She was incredibly patient with my dog who wasn't used to the type of stairs she had in her place. She took my dog out on long walks despite the cold weather and made sure she had plenty of other stimulation. I will definitely use her again!”

“Jayle was absolutely wonderful with our four cats. Each visit was thorough, timely, and full of care — we loved the photo updates and could tell the cats felt comfortable with her right away. Jayla handled their different personalities like a pro and left everything tidy. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind sitter.”

“Stephanie did a great job. She's reliable, and just a lovely person. She take amazing pet pictures, too! She even got my shy kitty to smile for the camera! Definitely will use again.”


“Lexi is kind, caring, and friendly toward our cats. Lexi is on time and follows our cats feeding schedule. Lexi follows her agency policy and sends us pictures and updates on their each time she visits. Lexi ensures are cats are feed and played with. These are cats who do not warm up to strangers and will not interact with strangers. But Lexi had the cats wanting belly rubs. Lexi has become our go to cat sitter/watcher. I will definitely use her again and again. I recommend using Lexi’s service if you want a reliable, kind and friendly cat sitter. Who can change our cat into a friendly, fun loving and belly rubbing loving cat. Our cats will miss her and so will we. Thanks Lexi !!! Carol Kaser”

“Stephanie was great with my dog. She is genuinely caring and made Dottie feel at home. Stephanie sent photos and was very responsive to my messages. I feel fortunate that she lives close by! I would highly recommend her.”

“Echo had such a great stay—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the start, communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear she was in good hands. What really stood out was how flexible he was with scheduling, especially when we had an unexpected delay getting back. Instead of adding stress to an already hectic situation, he was incredibly understanding and accommodating, which meant a lot. Echo came home happy, relaxed, tired (which is not an easy accomplishment) and clearly well cared for (honestly, I think she might’ve been a little disappointed to leave her new babysitter 😄). It’s such a relief knowing there’s someone trustworthy and kind to rely on.”

About: I've been around animals my entire life. Growing up, my family had two litters of Old English Sheepdogs. While I wasn't involved in the breeding process, I helped care for all of the puppies until they went to their forever homes, along with our three adult Sheepdogs. I also grew up around our family's three horses and have had two cats over the years. Today, I'm the proud pet parent of two Huskies—my boys, who I lovingly call my babies because they're truly part of my family.

I also love taking photos so sending them to clients would be a must. I want to keep everyone updated on their fur baby's experience with me.
“Tiffany was amazing!! My dog gets a little nervous when left at daycares but Tiffany made him feel right at home. The updates showed that he was relaxed and happy right away. Not only did Tiffany do a great job in taking care of him, she was also one of the most communicative daycares I've come across. You can really tell how experienced she is and how much she loves animals”

“Nervous about a first stay. Upon arrival I was put at ease. Lauranne took control and immediately connected with my Maltese. Within 3 hrs. I had a pic and first update of their activities. I would highly reccommend her.”
“First time using River and we picked Marie to watch our pup he's usually a bit anxious to be left somewhere strange but he did great. She was great at sending pictures and videos of his stay. He was worn out but appeared to have had a good stay.”

“She was very kind and respondent to requested service at last minute. She definitely seemed like she knew what she was doing, not only does she watch them and do the necessities she goes above and beyond and trains them too while under her care Highly recommend!!”

“It was our first time leaving our boy with someone other than family and they made us feel really comfortable. We knew when we left he was in good hands. They sent us pics/videos showing how comfortable he was. Definitely will go back. Thank you!”

“With a new puppy and anticipation of an upcoming vacation, I contacted Rikki to set up 3 all-day "play" dates, one per week leading up to our leaving. This way, our puppy would get to know Rikki and her family (and vice versa) and her home, and also know that each time she was left there to play, I always came back to get her and take her home. Well, next week is the big "leave", and our pup Juliet has had those 3 weekly play days. Familiarity has been achieved by all, and I feel a lot better knowing she will be taken care of in a nice family home, a family that she already knows and loves... and we can feel at peace while on our vacation. Thanks Rikki! See you next week. <3”

About: Hello! My name is Amanda Engel. I am a trusted, experienced pet care professional who is very passionate about dogs! -Experience: I am a graduate of the Medina County Career Center's two year Animal Care program in which I worked in a Doggy Daycare, grooming salon, veterinary lab, and a pet shop as a part of the program. I have volunteered at the Humane Society for many years and currently volunteer for a local pet rescue. I have fostered dogs (both puppies and adults), and with a little patience and love, have helped many fearful dogs recover, learn to trust again, and become adoptable. I’ve always been told that dogs are drawn to me (probably because they can sense that I love them so much!). -Services: Regarding my services, I have years of experience in providing a variety of pet care services (drop-in care, dog walking, and overnight care).

About: I’ve been around Dogs all my life. I have Dogs sat for friends, friends of friends in their home in my home, taking a break from corporate world. I’m looking to connect with some more animals Dog specifically I’m professional, loving sweet. I’m someone who hugs and holds animals constantly andas much as possible. Your pet will be loved with me that’s for sure.. I do have a nine year-old professionally trained miniature schnauzer. He would always be with me or hear in my home. He will not necessarily be on walks or check-in, but overnights are boarding in my home. Definitely he’s very very sweet. I would definitely be using my computer during my visits while sitting on the couch with him and if I have any board meetings or interviews, I might also use your Wi-Fi. After many years in a professional career, I’m taking a meaningful break to focus on two things that bring me joy—writing and spending more time outdoors with wonderful dogs. My schedule is intentionally flexible, allowing me to provide dependable walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight care. I believe pet parents deserve to enjoy vacations, work trips, or even a quiet evening out without guilt or worry. While you’re away, your pup will receive genuine companionship, thoughtful care, and plenty of love, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and preferences so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or curling up for cuddles, I’ll happily meet them where they are. I also have an almost 9-year-old, 14-pound Miniature Schnauzer who is professionally trained and truly the sweetest little companion I could ask for. He has a gentle temperament, loves other dogs, and provides calm, friendly company for pups who enjoy having a canine friend. If your dog prefers people over other dogs, I’m equally happy to give them one-on-one attention and will always respect their individual needs and comfort level. I believe in what I call “cuddle care”—gentle affection, belly rubs, calming massages, talking to dogs, and even singing to those who enjoy the extra attention. If your pup isn’t a snuggler, that’s perfectly okay too! I’ll always respect their boundaries while making sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease. My goal is for every visit to be filled with kindness, patience, and positive experiences so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is being cared for like one of my own.

“Flynn had the absolute best time with Stephanie and her dogs. I got pictures and updates daily and it made vacationing so much easier knowing he was well taken care of and loved! I will most definitely be using her again!”

“This was Millie’s first time with Vicki. Millie can be anti-social and a bit of a diva, but she did fabulous at Vicki’s. I appreciated the pictures Vicki sent and the updates. I am already rebooking her for Millie’s next visit!”

“We have used Gail for the past couple of years for all of our trips. She does great with my dog and keeps me updated through out the week. And she has never canceled on us which makes me feel confident when I book her so far in advance. Thanks for taking great care of Tiko!”

“AMAZING FAMILY. They were such a great choice for my girl. All the updates they sent were so awesome. Let alone you can just see the comfort, happiness & fun in my girl. I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home because she was loving it so much! Ava seemed to fit right in with the pack as well as feel right at home with them. Out of all the Rovers we’ve had this by far has been my favorite! ❤️ 🥰”

“It was the first time I left Kayla with anyone. On our meet and greet I felt very comfortable with Patti and knew she would take good care of my girl. Patti took excellent care of her. I booked with her because she only takes one pet at a time and she had a fenced in backyard. Patti sent me photos of Kayla fetching her ball which is her most favorite thing. I will definitely use her again.”

“There are no words to describe how incredibly grateful I am for Miranda and her services and that she even exists... I almost don't even want to put this all out here because then I have to share her with even more people! However, if I didn't tell it exactly as it is, I would be extremely selfish and feel terrible because someone else could lose out on having the beautiful experience of feeling the peace of mind (.... heart, and soul) to go on a trip and truly know your fur baby is being looked after not only responsibly, but with love and care. Oh, and that they would be having an absolute BLAST and the time of their lives!! I myself was worried my pup (River) wouldn't want to come back home 😂😂!! Miranda graciously took the time to communicate with me and shared many photos and videos of River's time with her and the crew there, and I loved every single second of all of them. Her Instagram page is where it's at too and an absolute must whether your baby is staying with her at the time or not... but definitely while they're staying b/c you get all the enjoyment of seeing them doing all the (very fun) things. Well worth every single penny in every way!! I will not hesitate in any way to have River stay with Miranda again when I go on another trip and I'm actually looking forward to doing so for myself and for River. Miranda, you're amazing and you've got an amazing thing going on... and you're stuck with us forever now 😁❤️🤗”

“George was the best. He took care of my toy poodle with such care. Tallow, my toy poodle, had never been with anyone else. He grew accustomed to George very quickly.. George showed a lot of care for him. I highly recommend him.”

“Athena was very responsive and understanding of Bella’s needs. She also kept in contact with me and even sent me pictures. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her in the future.”

“Melody is loving and knowledgeable about dogs. She truly gave our dog a home to stay in and not just food, water, and shelter. We would not hesitate to have a return booking and we would highly recommend.”

“My dog had a great time with Jessica and her family. Jessica was quick to respond to messages and sent daily pictures. Our dog was well taken care of while we were away.”

“First off I have always had my fears about boarding. I have always avoided going anywhere overnight but I had a little work trip come up and so I had to find somewhere for my Eska. I was very happy with Tiffany and her communication with me while she had my girl. I couldn't be happier with the care she gave my Eska. I now feel I can comfortably board in the future and feel she will be in good hands.”

“We have been booking with Heather for our 5 animals for years now. Heather and her husband watch our 4 dogs and cat once a year for our vacation. I schedule my vacations around them now because I don’t trust anyone else with my kids. I love that they always send daily updates with pictures and let me know any concerns they have (my one dog is getting old and stiff. Heather’s husband told me that he was bumping into things and might be developing some eyesight issues). They are very attentive. One year my cat and one dog got into a tiff (as they do sometimes) and Heather immediately contacted me and told me about it and told me she separated them to cool down. I have a very nervous rescue that does not like anyone but I get pictures of her laying with Heather and her husband. I have only ever seen this dog hug my husband or I in the 3 years we have had her but she hugs them. This tells me all I need to know since Ivy doesn’t trust anyone. My dogs seem to feel comfortable when I leave them there and not panicked. My cat and older dog take medicine daily and Heather gets my stubborn cat to take her medicine with no problem. Your pets are safe with them.”

“I have two high energy beagles and Kelly took them on. She was even smiling when I picked them up. She kept me updated and included pictures. I will definitely have Kelly watch the dogs again and I am so grateful she was so good to them.”

“This is the best dog caregiver in Akron. Josh is Amazing! He was very communicative, replied within a couple of minutes, he sent tons of pictures, My dog felt like home and was treated great!”

“We are so happy that Kelsi was able to watch our dog while we travelled all the way to Alaska. We were a little hesitant going so far away, but we were confident leaving her in Kelsi's care. She had our phone numbers, our vet's name and number along with our Aunt's phone number in Ohio just in case. Kelsi sent us lots of pictures and updates. It looked like Bailey had a wonderful time and it eased our fears of being so far away. We highly recommend Kelsi and will be leaving our dog in her care whenever we need her.”

“I felt extremely comfortable leaving my sweet guy in your very capable hands. I loved the pictures and updates. I will certainly look forward to another stay in the future. Highly recommend!!”

“My Opal had a relaxing stay with Wyatt. She got to socialize with other dogs & there were no worries about her safety & care. Progress photos thru the week were comforting to receive. Wyatt gets my highest recommendation.”
