5 Stars , Absolutely phenomenal pet sitter! We’ll definitely be booking her again if possible! Amber will treat your animals with love and help take the stress off from you AND your pet. We had Amber do two drop-in visits per day for 2 days, and she was outstanding in every way. From the very beginning, she was quick with responses, incredibly flexible, accommodating a last minute booking and even adjusting the schedule by several hours on the first day when our departure got delayed with her schedule and flexibility luckily coming through again for us. She made the whole process stress free. She was wonderful with our dog Hazel. The updates she sent through the Rover app were some of the best and reassuring. She included exactly when Hazel went on bathroom breaks during walks, how much she ate and drank, and how she was doing overall. When we got home, Hazel was so comfortable and happy that she was sprawled upside down on the bed in the bedroom and didn’t even hear me calling her loudly from the other room, that’s how relaxed and well cared for she was! Amber took Hazel on multiple walks each visit, made sure she was fed and watered, and clearly gave her lots of love and attention. We felt completely at ease leaving our girl in her care and trusted her 100%. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Thank you so much, we can’t wait to book with her again in the future!

Lindsay was really wonderful with our cars, one younger with a lot of energy and one older with a bit of attitude. She spent time with each of them and made them feel special when she visited while tending to their needs. The updates and pictures were welcome each visit and gave us piece of mind knowing such a caring was watching our for kids. We highly recommend Lindsay for your pet care needs, she is amazing and very loving with her fur friends.

About: 🐶I’ve taken care of our Family Rottweiler, Mini Schanuzer and Elderly Shitzu mix. I’ve also had my Chihuahua since I was a teenager. With that being said, I am very experienced with dogs of any size from pup to senior 🐕‍🦺. I work from home which makes it easier to spend time with the pups as well as keep a close eye on them. This is extremely convenient if your fur baby has separation anxiety! I have a fenced in yard and two Fur babies to keep your Pup company during their stay! I’ve also got a large crate if needed.

We have been looking for the perfect person to sit with Kato. And we found her. Zoey was so good with him. He went to her as soon as he saw her. Very rare for him. He has anxieties. We have been looking since we retired to be able to travel more. Shame it is only a 5 star rating.

About: I have been taking care of dogs most of my life. I am 57. I have done dog training and agility with 2 of our dogs. I have had a puppy and dealt with Senior dogs too. I love to give our dog lots of attention with play time, walking and outdoor activities. I love to take walks and go to other parks too. With the owner's permission, I love to go to the dog park-Bow Wow dog park and the Akron Dog Park. I give your furry one lots of attention with play time-throwing toys-playing fetch with a ball or toy. Letting them have backyard time. We have a fenced in back yard for the dogs to be free. I also will brush your dog and pet them and give them attention, while you are away. I will treat your dog like he/she is my own dog. Another place I will take dogs is Petsmart or Pet Supplies Plus for social interaction and exercise. I am at home and available most days. We have a 20 year-old Son, who also loves dogs! My Husband helps out too, with walks and letting the dogs out in our backyard and is a dog person. Currently, I am not working. I have a knee problem and some medical issues that prevent me from working full time. I have plenty of time to take care of your dog. We love to take walks and go to the dog parks. However, if you prefer your dog not to go to the dog park, that is fine. We could go on walks and let your dog go outside in our backyard. We have lots of dog toys, bones, balls, etc... I do have a walk thru pet gate that I set up to block off the kitchen and dining room area. We will feed our dog and your dog separately in separate rooms. I love to brush and pet dogs. If needed, we could bath your dog too. We are a "dog" type family, that is our preference. We have had fish, hamsters and also a guinea pig in the past. I grew up with a cat in our home, as a child. We will throw ball and toys for the dogs and play with your dog. We have a small crate that is in our garage, however we don't usually use the crate. If we leave the home, depending on the situation, if your dog is destructive or chewing on furniture or other items, then we will crate your dog when we leave for church or a short errand. If you have a calm dog and the dog is not destructive and well mannered, then your dog could stay in the family room area, unless you prefer that your dog is in his crate. We will use 2 dog gates near our steps to go upstairs. We prefer that our dog and other dogs do not go upstairs. As a House Sitter, I would do any needed cleaning up of any messes I make. I would be bringing my own food, as I am gluten free and dairy free. The only thing I would need is some freezer and frigerated space for my food. I would follow your normal routine for your dog or dogs. I do have occasional Dr and therapy appointments, fyi. We have a home in Akron, with a fence in our backyard. We live near a forest, it is a quiet area. We have a small neighborhood, where the street dead ends to a forest. We don't get drive thru traffic, that use our area as a "short cut".

To simply describe Sydney as AMAZING is not enough. Not only is she excellent at communicating (even when I might take a bit of time to respond), her love and care for my cats are phenomenal. My shy cat took to her so quickly that I’m sure if given the choice, he would not mind going home with her 😆. The picture and video updates I got put me at extreme ease while I was traveling, knowing that my cats and my place were in great hands. I would not even hesitate a single second about recommending her for pet sitting. 1000% would be asking her to care for my boys again in the future.

About: Ive always been drawn to animals, they’re better than humans lol. As a tot, I’d make it my mission to befriend as many kitties and pups as possible, this led to long-term house sits for my friends + family, and building a bond with said animal. I’ve been caring for pups my entire life as I grew up with them. I’d be honored to pet sit your fur babies! As of right now; I attend trade school in the mornings and work part-time nights. Given that I work only three hours per night and classes end before 1pm. That gives me plenty of time to stay for a couple hours or even check in multiple times throughout the day! I like to do everything on a schedule; Feed, nice stroll/restroom break, play for at least 30 minutes then, hopefully tucker out the pup and repeat! It’s imperative that you’re attentive to your animal as they have needs too and cannot speak. They also don’t have entertainment like we do that’s when I make sure to keep busy with them. I also like to send pictures as little updates so you can keep an eye on your fur baby. (if you’d like of course)

About: I have 6 years of active dog training and boarding. With over 300 dogs under my belt, I've seen all kinds of temperaments and breeds! I am confident in my dog handling abilities, and have experience with puppies, seniors, and handicapped dogs. I am self employed, so I have plenty of flexibility to accommodate some dog care! Weekends are my favorite days to make appointments. And I have reliable transportation! Respect is paramount. I will do my best to both 1) feel comfortable around your pet (which is important!) and 2) respect your home and belongings.

Tabbi was awesome with the pet kids! She had a challenge and she conquered it! The dogs were so happy when she stopped in 3 times each day to walk water and feed them. She sent us pictures and a report card for every visit. We will definitely give Tabbi a call the next time we need a sitter for Sadie and Ranger!

About: Hi! My name is Dayne, and I’m a 22 year old college football player with a lifelong love for animals. I’ve grown up around pets my entire life, and spending time with them has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Right now I have a German Shepherd and a Beagle, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I actually trained my German Shepherd myself from the time he was a puppy, and seeing him grow into such a well behaved, obedient dog has been incredibly rewarding. That experience taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and understanding how every dog learns a little differently. Being a college athlete has also taught me the importance of being dependable, responsible, and sticking to a routine. Those are qualities I bring with me whenever I’m taking care of someone else’s pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or just keeping your dog company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they’re getting the attention and care they deserve. I also have experience with more than just dogs. I grew up with an Umbrella Cockatoo that’s still part of my family’s life today, so I’m familiar with caring for birds. I also own a Bearded Dragon, which has given me experience caring for reptiles as well. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful because they’re family. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, make sure they feel safe and comfortable, and always follow your care instructions. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m a college football player, so all of my athletic commitments are done in the mornings. I also take all of my classes online, which gives me the rest of the day to fully focus on the dogs in my care. My schedule is very structured, and I’m home the majority of the day outside of morning workouts. My own dogs are properly exercised every single day. We go to the dog park, on long walks, and even hikes when the weather is nice. I make sure they are well run and mentally stimulated so they’re balanced and happy. They are fed twice a day with high quality dog food, and I stay consistent with their health needs. My German Shepherd gets joint supplements, and both my Shepherd and Beagle get salmon oil daily. I take their care seriously, and I would treat your dog the exact same way. Being an athlete, I’m already used to routine, discipline, and responsibility. That carries over into how I care for animals. Your dog won’t just be “watched” they’ll be exercised, cared for, and paid attention to. I live in a 1600 square foot home with plenty of space for dogs to move around comfortably. I have a large dog crate available if your dog is crate trained or needs their own quiet space. I also have two friendly, well socialized dogs who love to play and will keep your dog company. Safety is always my top priority. I’m experienced with large breeds and strong dogs, and I understand proper leash control, structure, and supervision. I keep a clean, organized home and always make sure dogs are monitored, comfortable, and secure. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone, and I don’t take that lightly.
