About: I don’t just watch pets, I care for them like they’re my own. My King Charles Cavalier Spaniel taught me how meaningful the bond between people and their pets can be, and it’s one of the reasons why I treat every animal with patience, affection, and individualized care. With years of experience, a flexible schedule, and a true passion for animals, you can trust that your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship while you’re away. 🐶🐱💕 I work full-time, but pet sitting fits well into my weekly schedule because I’m intentional about making time for it. I only take on bookings I can fully commit to, so every pet gets the attention, care, and reliability they deserve. Evenings and weekends are open as well as during lunch hours during the work week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and lots of attention. I also treat your home with respect, keep things clean and secure, and provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I've cared for family and friends dogs since I was a teenager, as well as our own dogs. I have experience with diabetic dogs and other medical needs. I work part time and will spend my off time with your pup. I like to meet everyone before sitting so I can get to know their routines and make sure everyone is comfortable! I will care for your pets as you do. I typically visit the home before dogsitting to meet the dog and see what their routine is.
“Haley was absolutely amazing! My Pomeranian puppy needed care for about 6 hours, and Haley went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. She listened to our wants and needs for our puppy and asked all the right questions beforehand to be prepared. During the day, she sent me updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. I’m so grateful to have found her and will definitely be booking her again. Highly recommend!”
“Kori was great with our dog while we were on vacation! He is an anxious boy so leaving him with someone else always makes us a little nervous. Kori sent us pictures and videos every day and Mason looked so happy in all of them.”
“We had the pleasure of having April stay at our house for two nights to take care of our dogs, and she was fantastic! April was incredibly attentive and caring, making sure our furry friends were happy and well-exercised. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind. Our home was left spotless, and our dog seemed genuinely happy and well-cared for. We highly recommend April to anyone in need of a reliable and loving dog sitter!”

Honestly it was the first time I met her but her personality and compassion shows She on time and goes beyond. You won’t be disappointed and your pets will love her Highly recommend”

“Melissa took amazing care of my two pups, sent regular updates and made both myself and them feel at ease. They haven’t had a sitter in years that they didn’t know prior, and one of my pups has alot of anxiety with new people, but warmed up to Melissa at lightning speed and I could tell from the photos she was having a blast. Absolutely recommend Melissa!”

Over 8 pet parents in Youngstown have booked house sitting
Youngstown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emma did great with my boys, Louis and Dakota. This was their first time with her. She came after I left for the train and did her day job then came back and stayed overnight with them. She sent a video of them playing in the backyard so I know they were happy. She also let me know too that Dakota cut his leg on something in the backyard (his now 3rd time!) while chasing squirrels. He was fine when I got home as this is par for the course with him being a full on spazz puppy. She wiped him up and cleaned it up but I was grateful she told me about it so I could check it out when I got home too. The house was as I left it when I came home too! Hopefully we can use Emma again to babysit in the future!!
