About: Over 10+ years of experience which includes feeding, grooming, and preserving an accessible residing space for pets. Also, providing health care, and creating a safe and relaxing environment. I’m currently available to work full-time. I will have to come to your house to take care of your pet. I’m available anytime Monday through Friday. I currently cannot have pets at my home. I will come to my client’s home and take care of their pet(s). I will always take protective measures when entering and leaving the home to ensure the safety of the home and the pet.
About: I've grown up taking care of cats and dogs in our household. Currently I have two adopted cats of my own. I love caring for animals. I have some flexibility during the day to care for your pets. I can adapt to changes as needed. I typically have limited weekend availability. I will provide reliable and loving care for your pets. I am flexible to accommodate your preferences and follow your preferred routines to help your pets feel the most comfortable.
About: I have worked with animals all my life, including caring for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, horses, cows, and reptiles. I grew up providing basic first aid for my pets on my farm including bandaging, medications, and baths. I have worked with dogs from small jack russel terriers to large livestock guarding dogs. Most recently I helped my mom rescue and retrain a geriatric blue healer/beagle mix. This includes potty training and basic manners on and off the leash. I also administered medications 2x a day in the form of pills. I have also had experience giving injections for medications. I am well versed in all types of animal care, a quick learner, and great at following instructions. I’m a new stay at home mom with a flexible schedule. I have 2 dogs of my own so adding more into our routine just makes sense! I love to explore, hike, and go for drives. It’s even better to do these things with a furry companion. Let me show your furry friend the joys of nature and lots of love and care.
“Thanks to Megan for her enthusiastic and committed dog walking skills. We all appreciated her professionalism.”
“If you're looking for someone to love your pets as much as you do -- and to make you feel better while you're away -- then book Jill! She's THE BEST!”
“So grateful to Donald who came in on short notice (3-4 hrs) & successfully handled a big dog who can be reactive on walks. He helped with “last out”, “first ou”t plus a mid-day walk.”
“Thank you for taking good care of Atlas!”
About: I've spent most of my life in care of animals, whether that was at home or the local strays, but the last 10 years especially I've found a passion for caring for animals. We (Sam, pictured above) have been boarding together for about a year now, her having almost 4 years of experience doing this nearly full time. I've cared for many breeds of dogs, cats, and even reptiles through this time, handling the special needs cases too!! I LOVE what I do, and have no issue with more complicated lil buddies too! It's always a pleasure to get the experience with each of these unique lil friends! Right now, this is what I'm doing full time, so it's really based on scheduling for that month/week between my own home, especially having 5 animals myself, but it still leaves me with plenty of free time! This usually averages to be like a 45-55hr/wk job for me. I thrive on instruction, especially if you're looking for peace of mind while away from your lil furry friends! I always try and plan with the owners to have a meet n greet before hand, to be sure everyone gets along. Then, if that went well, we can proceed with scheduling and planning a second visit to talk about home/care instructions in further depth (trash day,parking if it's overnights, various little things of that nature). From there, it's all about the pets! I love the lil guys, and prioritize them and the space we're in with them during their care the entire time you're away!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and absolutely love dogs. Two of which, I trained from puppies to adults, including: potty training, crate training, and basic obedience training. I currently am in-between jobs and hoping to make a little cash and meet some sweet pups along the way. I’m home basically all day, so would be available basically all the time. I treat all animals with care and love, treating them just as I treat my own pet. Firm when necessary but lots of love and attention.
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). I have provided care for dogs anywhere from 5 pounds to 100 pounds! I am well rounded when it comes to experience with different breeds and always accommodate to the individual needs of each dog. I have uploaded lots of photos of my time spent with with my beloved fur friends! Feel free to check them out! (Click on my photo and then “Gallery”). Regarding my schedule, I currently have availability for your pet and am accepting new clients. I look forward to getting to know your pet and spending time with him / her! Since the comfort and safety of your pet is my #1 priority, I take the following steps to ensure a safe and healthy environment: - Monitoring weather conditions and limiting time outdoors in excess heat -Always keeping dogs on a leash when outdoors -Inquiring about any medical history or needs and adhering to any medication schedules -Taking a Canine First Aid & CPR course periodically to maintain safety skills

“Alex has an extraordinary talent when interacting with animals. Alex has taken exceptional care of my pets. I owned two dogs whom I left in the care of Alex on several occasions. Immediately, Alex established a positive rapport with the dogs. Alex took the dogs on walks in Metroparks, to dog parks, as well as to the dog beach in Stow, OH. Alex is very responsible. He took the dogs to the groomer and to vet appoints. The dogs enjoyed spending time with Alex. Without reservation, I would highly recommend Alex as a pet caregiver.”

“Our Lolli and Pop absolutely loooved the week they spent with Amanda. She went above and beyond the call of duty to take them on short notice and give them all the care and comforts of home. Our mini poodles were drawn immediately to her wonderful energy, We could tell from the pics and updates she sent us. They also became pals with Amanda’s “puggle”, Bailey. We would definitely trust her again with our babies and would recommend her to our friends.”
