“Finn gets so much joy when his friend Cassie comes! All I have to say is ‘guess who is here’ before she rings the bell and he runs to the front door, with his most excited barking and greets her with so much enthusiasm! And she gets more kisses from him than I do!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

About: In GOOD HANDS! I've been raising our own AKC Champion-bred Labrador Retrievers since 2009, plus we have taken care of the ones we've boarded back over the years! You can rest-assured yours will be given the same level of care as our own lovable Labradors, experienced with puppyhood to elder care. We know labs and literally thought of everything to keep your pet safe while in our care. From multi-level safety systems like heating/ cooling/ backups in case of failures, cameras, nightly checks, spacious 1.5 acre six-foot tall fenced play yards with no dig fencing, cement blocks under gates, gated and fenced drop-off points, secure commercial playground equipment, handicap ramps so elderly dogs can safely access our outdoor play yards, sanctioned & fenced areas for small breed dogs with overhead protection & triple fences, to even our summer doggie splash pad, you can relax on your vacation or focus on work while they are enjoying their own Doggy Daycation! We provide at no additional cost: medication, if needed, special food prep, chew proof kuranda beds, BOTH INDOOR/ OUTDOOR ACCESS from their kennel AND we take them out every 4 hours for 10-15 minutes for personalized playtime and potty breaks! We also have a private, fenced Rover Romp we can bring pets for off-leash romps that's bookable to you as well on rain-free days & in good weather. Best part? We are only about 20 min from Cleveland-Hopkins airport (with a low traffic back road that leads to it)! So, if flying out, we are conveniently located for drop-off. My husband & I do this full-time along with our daughter who sometimes helps with our own young puppies / friendly boarders w/ owner approval & cats! We let them out every 3-4 hours to play throughout the day. Our kennels boast chew proof Kuranda beds with covered indoor/ outdoor runs, separate play yards with additional protective fencing for small breed dogs, and separate areas for elderly dogs. We have large play yards and a rover romp with commercial playground w/ splash pad (for summertime use). We built 2 Suite wing add-ons to our home with one designated for toy, small, or medium-size dogs and the other for large or giant breed dogs. Our small wing has 5 indoor/ outdoor runs and 8 indoor kennels for toy/ small breeds w/ outside access 4-6x daily. The indoor/ outdoor suites boast chew proof kuranda beds, we have handicap ramps for elderly dogs to access our play yards, 6' fenced play yards for large breed, & designated 4' fenced play yards for medium - small breed dogs. For care in your home (aka housesitting) I will take out trash, clean up any messes dog makes, try to keep them entertained so they don't make messes, feed/ give medication as scheduled, wash & clean bowls daily, take out for potty breaks, and brush & vaccuum prior to leaving. I will only walk non-aggressive leash-trained dogs, small/ med breed - no bully breeds please, so must have fenced yard or will walk dog on leash in a fenced or electric fenced yard.

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.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I currently have a yellow lab, Ranger, who will be turning three in September—he’s truly my whole world! I’ve raised him since he was a puppy and have put a lot of time and care into his training, so I understand how important consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement are. I also have a 4-month-old puppy, River, so I’m very familiar with the energy, attention, and structure that puppies need. In addition to my own dogs, I’ve taken in foster dogs over the years, which has given me experience working with a wide range of personalities—from playful pups to senior dogs who need a gentler approach. Daily walks are one of my favorite activities, and I love making sure dogs get the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a reliable sitter, or someone patient and experienced, I will treat them like my own—with lots of love, care, and attention to their unique needs. I’d love to meet your pup! I work a 8-5 so I could walk before work at anytime. I could also walk at 6 or 7 during the week after work! I love a morning walk with a pal. With a lab I know all about it a ton of energy and how to handle it. We have worked a ton on leash and he is 60 lbs.

“Our dogs adore Michelle! She’s caring, dependable, and always goes the extra mile. Couldn’t ask for a better person to trust with our pups!”

About: From young pups to aging/declining dogs, I have cared for their specific needs. I have also taken care of friendly cats as well as scaredy cats. My personality seems to make animals feel safe and loved. I work part time for The Cleveland Metroparks. I believe health & fitness is good for us and for our fur babies! I can help. I am flexible and can follow the routine you provide for your pet. I enjoy being friendly to all animals and truly care for them.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for animals of all ages and personalities! As a pet parent to a senior German Shepherd and four cats, I understand that every pet has their own unique needs, routines, and quirks. I have firsthand experience caring for senior pets, including those with arthritis, mobility challenges, and the need for a little extra patience and TLC. I also previously had a dog with epilepsy, so I’m very familiar with administering daily medications, maintaining consistent routines, and providing extra care for pets with medical needs. I’m also comfortable with energetic younger pets who need plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention! I’m patient, nurturing, dependable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply cuddling on the couch, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving hands! 🐾❤️ I work from home full-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the week! As a pet parent myself, caring for animals is already a huge part of my everyday routine. I love spending time outdoors, going for walks, and making sure my pets get plenty of love and attention. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away! As a pet parent to both dogs and cats, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own! Whether that means sticking to their feeding schedule, giving medications when needed and discussed beforehand, keeping their space clean, or simply spending extra time giving them love and attention. I understand that every animal has their own personality, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also send plenty of pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

I will never make them feel rushed or forced and I will let them set the pace for the day, depending on their mood and energy level.

About: I won’t lie and say I’ve professionally taken care of dogs for 15 years—but I’ve taken care of dogs ever since elementary school, in my own household and in others’. I know what to look out for to prevent a dog from getting into trouble. I’ve dealt with just about all kinds of messes. And I can handle any size of dog. My main job is part-time contract work, so there are a lot of monetary and time gaps that need filled. That said, my routine allows a lot of room for pet sitting! Every dog is different, so I take that approach with each pet I look after. I follow owner’s instructions, and if I have any questions I am not afraid to ask for clarification—the dog’s/owner’s needs come first. I love giving dogs the attention they deserve (which is usually a lot), and am great at playing.

I am able to discover any pets personality and adjust and assist to make sure the environment is a happy safe one. I have never been a dog walker, but I have taken care of a few pets while babysitting for my neighbors in the community for 4 years.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was little, and there has always been a dog in my family. Last October, I unfortunately had to put down my dog of 14 years. She was my best friend, and I miss her dearly. Since I’m not quite ready to have another full-time dog, I felt that caring for other people’s dogs would be the perfect way for me to still spend time with them. I’ve always enjoyed going on walks, visiting parks, or simply spending time outside with dogs. I truly believe dogs have such short lives, and they deserve to be loved, spoiled, and cared for every single day. Watching a dog fits naturally into my daily schedule because I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m already used to planning my day around walks, feeding times, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s going for walks, spending time outside, or simply giving them attention and companionship, I enjoy making dogs part of my routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I make sure they receive plenty of love, patience, and care throughout the day. I provide a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment for every dog in my care. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy time outside. I understand how important trust is when leaving a pet with someone, and I treat every dog like family by making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.
