“Hannah is absolutely incredible. She always goes above & beyond to ensure our fur baby is well taken care of & sends me pictures throughout the stay so I know it's going well. I recommend Hannah time & time again for dog sitting needs!”


About: I've been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old, so you could say it's in my blood. Over the years, I've learned so much about their different personalities and needs. One of the most special dogs in my life was my own, who lived to the incredible age of 18. He was a constant companion and taught me so much about loyalty and love. That experience really shaped my approach to dog care, making me extra attentive and dedicated to their well-being. I also have experience with cats and rabbits as well. I usually work my other job in the mornings, but I can be flexible to fit your schedule. Let me know what times work best for you, and I'll do my best to accommodate! Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I always make sure they have a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I follow their regular feeding and exercise routines, and I'm always attentive to their individual needs and quirks. Lots of playtime, cuddles, and positive reinforcement are definitely part of the deal!

About: I love animals. I grew up with dogs and have been around cows and horses. Every animal is special to me. Your dog will be treated as one of my own when with or around me. I have 1 small dog who is very playful with other dogs. I live close enough to a park that we frequent often. We live in a spacious house so your dog will have tons of room here. I hope to get the chance to get to know you and your pup. Please feel free to ask any questions. I do have a full time job beyond dog sitting but my schedule still allows me to sit or walk other dogs as needed. I am available for most holidays. Safety of your pet is my number one priority. I do not have a fully fenced yard (yet) but your pet would never be outside unattended.

About: I’ve had pets since I was 2 years old! I’ve also worked with animals since I was 19 at several animal shelters, animal hospitals, and boarding places! I don’t currently have a car of my own to drive, which is why my pet care schedule is the way it is! I will be able to drive to see your pets when I have a car available to me which is Friday-Sunday, anytime after 12pm! I can drop in to give your fur babies much needed love and potty breaks! A fenced in yard is preferred so that there is plenty of room to play with your pup! However, I will gladly take your pup on a nice brisk walk if you don’t have a fenced in yard!

About: Your pets will have a fenced back yard to play in! I offer in house boarding So your pet doesn’t have to sleep on a hard floor and be in a kennel. Your pet will be treated as though they are one of my own. If they sleep with you they sleep with me! They are my first priority! Come on out and do a meet and greet! Pet boarding is my biggest priority. Your pet will have all the attention, fun time and proper care they need during their visit no matter how long their visit is. I care for the pets I sit as though their own owner is caring for them. If they have food and water in front of them, 24/7 that will be something that they will have at my facility if they don’t and they have a different regiment that is something they will have in my facility if they have toys, beds, medication at their home that is what i will provide for them as well. If they are, or aren’t allowed on the furniture that is what i will do If they sleep in your bed with you at night they will sleep with me at night. If they go on multiple daily walks, that is what i will do. Your pet will be cared for just the way you care for them.

About: I have house / dog/ and cat sit for neighbors and friends for many years and am looking forward to meet you and your pets!! Available briefing in mornings but mainly in afternoons, evenings to check on whatever needed and am always near Wooster for anything that may come up. I have watched several houses/ pets over the years and am always very conscientious about when arriving to homes/ leaving for safety, security and keeping a close eye on pets.

“This was my first time using Rover and someone else other than family to watch my dog Luna as we all went to Columbus overnight for a wedding. Isabel took excellent care of Luna! She responded quickly and even sent me picture updates while I was gone. I would definitely recommend her to others and would book with her again!”


About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 8 years old. Taking care of animals has always been a love of mine. I don’t currently work because I have a transplant so I have plenty of free time to spend with your animals walking or playing with them! I have two cats of my own and I had a dog but she recently passed away from old age so helping take care of other animals is a passion of mine.

About: I've been watching neighbors dogs since I was about 12 and have had dogs since second grade. I trained service dogs throughout my entire college career (4 years). The dogs were always puppies that were being trained. I have experience with all kinds of behaviors from training and sizes of dogs ranging from giant to small. My current dog is 91 lbs and my past dog was 15 lbs. I am very experienced with dog reactive dogs as well as other behaviors such as aggression, obsession, possession, stubbornness, etc. I also have experience with senior dog care as well. No matter the pet I will be happy to care for them and make them feel so loved 🩷. I have watched cats, fish, hamsters as well. I will make your pet feel so loved and as comfortable as they can be! They will be taken care of like they are one of my own! ❤️ I am currently working a full time job, 7:30 am to 4 pm. I am available to watch your pet in your home any day of the week if they can be alone for that long. If not, I am free all weekday evenings and any weekend for overnights! I will happily stay at your home so your pet is comfortable with their surroundings. I am also available for walks daily, weekday evenings, mornings or anytime on weekends! I am active and will go on long walks to tire out your pups! When taking care of your loved fur baby I will stay in your home so that they are used to and comfortable with their surroundings! I Iwill play with them and the provided toys, feed them per their food schedule and hang out with them. If they are cuddle bugs I will happily lay with them and pet them til they are snoring away!!

About: I grew up in a home full of animals, including three boxers. I have taken care of them in their senior age so I also know what that may look like! I currently have three dogs of my own, all of which i’ve had since they were puppies, so I am aware of what puppy care/training can look like as well! I currently work overnight, and am home all day. My schedule is 9pm-9am so I am home from around 9:30am-8:30pm. My significant other is on first shift, so he is home during the night! I have a fenced in yard, and three pups to keep yours company! Since I am home all day, they can have potty breaks and freedom as much as they’d like! If I do have to run an errand it is normally not for more than 2 hours, but if your pup needs crated, I can easily do that! There is a spare room that if they need some down time or you’d prefer them to be alone at any point, they can just hangout in there! We have them on relatively the same schedule everyday. Wake up around 9, go outside and play, eat around 10, then we can play all day! They eat again around 7pm. If you need me to come watch your pup in your home I have also done that numerous times!

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for over ten years now, and I have always been an animal lover! I am comfortable watching dogs of all breeds and sizes. I currently am a graduate student at Cleveland State University. I have a flexible schedule and I am free most weekends. I also have flexibility throughout weekdays to let animals out during various times of the day. I’ve had animals growing up my whole life and I understand the responsibility and safety that it entails. I am able to make visits or stay in your home depending on your preference.

About: As a dedicated dog lover and proud owner of two golden retrievers, I understand that every dog is family. My experience caring for my own pups has given me firsthand knowledge of everything from puppy energy to the gentle needs of senior dogs. I provide patient, loving care tailored to each dog’s personality, age, and routine. Whether it’s keeping your energetic pup entertained or giving extra attention to older dogs, I treat every dog like my own—with love, consistency, and a whole lot of belly rubs. I’m a college student currently off for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule! I’m available weekdays from early mornings through early evenings. While I prefer daytime care, I can also accommodate overnight stays with advance notice. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I’m excited to spend my summer giving dogs the attention, playtime, and love they deserve! While I don’t offer in-home boarding, I’m happy to care for your dog in the comfort of your own home. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, and I’ll treat your home and your dog with the utmost respect and care. My own dogs are protective, so I don’t offer playdates, but I’m more than happy to take your pup on walks, to the park, or to any favorite spots they enjoy. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities.

“This was our first time ever using Rover, and it was a huge success! Julie was such a kind person the moment we met her. She went the extra mile for our pets and the house looked like no one had even stepped foot in it since we had left! I would highly recommend her for any service you may need!”


About: I have had animals my whole life, from dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, iguanas, and rabbits. I have lived with them, fed them and kept them clean. I am currently only working part time so I have tons of time to help these animals have some fun while their parents are away! I have a very large yard and live nearby to parks. I have a crate if needed and will be willing to accommodate whatever is needed.
