Our anxious pup hasn't had anyone other than his mom and dad take care of him in many many months, but we knew we could trust Ethan to help us out so we could go to our daughter's concert. He took him on a nice walk to get some pent up energy out, sent us a picture to show us that Z was doing well, and left us a thorough message to ease our minds about how the drop-in went overall

Brian was absolutely wonderful! He took great care of our puppy, Storm, on our wedding day. He updated us with pictures, and messages. He transported Storm to and from our wedding day pictures at Lakewood Park. He went beyond our expectations. He has set the bar high and we would give the highest recommendation to book with him!! Great job! Thank you so much Brian!!

About: I have had large and small dogs through my entire life. I currently have a 110lb German Shepherd who I love dearly. Great with High-energy dogs as well Pet care is currently my main job, I spend the rest of my time with my own pets. Im available all afternoons and even late-nights or weekends I prefer to take a calm and measured approach when meeting new pets. All animals needs are different so I make sure to take my time and learn the individual needs of each pet I care for.

About: I’ve had animals my whole life and genuinely love being around them. I currently have three dogs (a terrier, a mastiff-lab mix, and a pittie) who I’m obsessed with, plus my black cat who is my best friend. I also foster puppies and senior dogs, which has given me a lot of experience with pets who need a little extra patience, care, or attention. I’m super comfortable adjusting to different energy levels whether that means keeping up with a crazy puppy or going slow and gentle with an older dog. I used to work at a doggy daycare where I cared for 100+ dogs at a time, feeding, cleaning, walking, and just making sure everyone was safe and happy. That experience taught me how to handle all kinds of breeds, sizes, and personalities. Overall, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well taken care of :) I’m a college student so my schedule can be pretty flexible, especially during the summer and school breaks. That’s when I’m really looking to do more pet care because I love having something active and fun to fill my time, and being around animals is honestly my favorite thing. I’ll treat your pets just like my own, with lots of love, attention, and care. I know every pet is different, so I always make sure to follow whatever instructions you leave, whether that’s feeding routines, crating, medications, walks, or anything specific to their needs. I’m very attentive to their behavior and comfort level, and I’ll make sure they feel safe and relaxed in their environment. I also keep things clean and consistent so your pet stays happy and stress-free while you’re away.

Kaitlyn is amazing, simply put. I needed help with my pack of 5 rather quickly and Kaitlyn was expeditious with meeting with me, my fiancé and my pack to support our needs. I have Aussies and on top of being high energy, they each have different personalities and individual needs. Kaitlyn took to them like she’s known them forever, and they absolutely adore her! One is afraid of night time and rarely will go outside for bedtime potty breaks and Kaitlyn was successful in working with her to overcome her fear in Kaitlyn’s care. One of my boys had a slight emergency on her first evening with us and she was very quick to communicate with me, trouble shoot, and resolve the issue! Her experience with animals, professionalism, and knowledge show throughout her care and my babies are grateful to her. I will forever highly recommend Kaitlyn to anyone who is searching for someone to care for and love on their fur babies.

Tyler was an excellent dog sitter for our two dogs while we were away! He provided exceptionally detailed notes for each visit as well as lots of pictures. It was clear from how quickly our dogs bonded with him that he knew how to decipher their body language and behavior cues and give them what they needed and wanted. One of our dogs usually takes several days to warm up to sitters but she and Tyler became friends very quickly! I highly recommend him, and we will be re-booking with him for future trips.

About: I am a professional actor and aspiring pet caretaker new-ish to the Cleveland area! Pet care is one of the many side hustles I have taken on since graduating college and beginning my acting career. It can be challenging to find jobs that are easy to hop right back into in between or even on top of my performing jobs, so what better place to work than as a caretaker for your pet? Considering my background in theatre and a lifetime of caring for the many dogs and cats my family owned growing up, you can consider me a reliable, loyal, and trustworthy caretaker for your sweet fur babies. I will quickly and easily match their energy and I can assure you that your pet(s) will remain safe and happy! In my childhood and teen years, my family took on multiple pets - cats and dogs of all ages. I was a responsible caretaker for my family, ensuring to pay close attention to the pet’s needs and behavior and always letting my parents know if I noticed an issue. Our pets remained happy and healthy, and I moved away from home only to adopt a six week old kitten myself! My cat, Kirby, is now a happy and healthy three year old who lives among two other cats that I successfully socialized him with. Needless to say, my caretaking methods are effective and rehearsed, beginning from a young age and continuing into my adulthood. I am so looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies, and I’m ever so excited to be of the utmost assistance I can be to you. By hiring me, you are helping a young actress make her way in the beginnings of her career and filling her heart by allowing her quality time with your pets! I currently am working as a server and a part-time keyholder in retail. My schedule varies week to week, but I am happy to rearrange my schedule when possible to accommodate to your pet care needs! I am happy to bring along any supplies of my own that would make our time easier! I am also happy to follow any routine you already have in place and comfortable with looking in your home as much as you would allow me to use supplies you may already have.

About: I have grown up with dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish as pets. In addition to this, I have over two years of experience as a vet assistant at Westpark Animal Hospital. Being a vet assistant has improved both my dog and cat handling/care-taking skills. My family has also fostered puppies and I am a volunteer dog walker for CITY DOGS. I will be a sophomore at Ohio State in the fall and I am studying Animal Sciences on the Pre-Vet track! My hours at work this summer allow me to be relatively available throughout the week. I will be able to fit pet care into my routine before or after work, depending on the hours that I am scheduled for the week. I have 2 dogs at home and will be raising a Guiding Eye puppy this summer. My yard is partially fenced, but it would probably be better for me to drop into clients' homes for walks, playtime, feeding, etc. I'm used to my dogs being higher-energy, so I feel confident caring for pets of all energy levels.

About: I have a 5 year old male border collie named Rocky who is my absolute soul dog. My mutt Halo I adopted from a shelter in Lansing, Michigan while I was studying at Michigan State University in East Lansing. They are both born in July one year apart. I raised Rocky from puppyhood and taught him 30+ tricks. Rocky helped me raise Halo. I am an animal person in general. I love cats and dogs. I bar back at TopGolf in Avon and am a Host at Scramblers in Rocky River. I’m looking to become a dog trainer soon. Once I can afford my own house I will pursue a certification for it. I am friendly, polite, musical, and fun. I walk around 30-40K steps a day so I would love to meet and be able to walk your dogs for you. I also have a fondness for cats as well and used to take care of my neighbor’s cat Caramel when we were in college! I work Saturdays from 9am-3pm and for Top Golf I am still fairly new so I barely even get scheduled right now. It could pick up in the summer but regardless I have an incredibly flexible schedule for the time being. My border collie and pitbull mix Halo live with my parents and I in Westlake in an apartment. We have a secret off leash spot we like to use for them to run around and Rocky to play fetch in!

Anna was AMAZING with our two fluff beasts while we were on vacation. The cats were both healthy and happy when we returned. Anna won over our older, more skittish cat and took extra effort to keep a close eye on his needs. She kept me updated on medical issues, even when there were no symptoms to report (which I really appreciated), adjusted her visit schedule based on the cats’ appetites, and even hunted down one of their supplements when we didn’t realize we had no backup container on hand. Simply put, Anna is wonderful. We will be booking with her again, and you should, too.
