Cathy was great with my cats. My shy cat even came around to her. She communicated with me daily while on vacation. I was able to enjoy my vacation so much more knowing my cats were well taken care of.

Megan has taken care of Peaches for me several times. I really appreciate knowing there is someone I can count on to take good care of my fur baby when I am gone. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets

Lauren was fantastic with our cats! She medicated our anxious tabby and sent pictures each day! Lauren remained cool and collected when we ran into house alarm snafus. I would highly recommend her services!

About: I've had pet since my earliest memories. On top of caring for pets of my own, including cats, dogs, reptiles, arachnids, and more, I also fostered animals in southern Indiana for 5+ years. Now that I'm in the Cincinnati area I want to find a way to help animals again so I joined Rover! I currently work as a contractor for a delivery company so I choose my own hours, this way I have time to fit in the furry friends. I can come any time, day or night! When caring for pets in someones home I always make sure to have a list of things the pet parents want to make sure is done. I also make sure all cabinets and doors are secure before leaving a room, this way pets can't get into anything they shouldn't. When outside with the pups, I always make sure to keep them on the outside away from the road when walking on sidewalks.

About: I have dog sitted for close friends and work colleagues during graduate school. I am still new to dog sitting but I take direction very well and I am willing to learn new things and meet new people! I am currently a pharmacy resident and work mainly during the weekdays from 7am-5pm and work every other weekend starting this upcoming July. My availability for June is open during the afternoons and most early morning for weekdays and open on weekends! I make a point to follow instructions to a T, and if there are opportunities to go above and beyond, I will do so. If dog sitting, I make sure to give the utmost attention to your pet while also meeting your expectations. As for house sitting, I like to treat a home as if it were my own: tidy and organized.

About: I have experience caring for both puppies and adult dogs, including dogs with disabilities, cats, bunnies, hamsters, birds, fish, turtles, a pig and a squirrel. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering basic care, providing companionship, and monitoring their overall well-being. I am comfortable adapting to different temperaments, energy levels, and mobility requirements, ensuring each animal receives patient, attentive, and compassionate care. Through this experience, I have developed strong skills in handling animals safely, recognizing their needs, and creating a positive and supportive environment for them. I am currently unemployed, but I am looking for a part time job. As of now I am available Monday through Sunday. When I find a part time job, I will update my availability! When caring for pets in their own homes, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and established routines. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and household rules. I ensure doors, gates, and windows remain secure to prevent pets from escaping, keep potentially harmful items out of reach, and monitor pets for any signs of illness, stress, or unusual behavior. I provide plenty of attention, companionship, and enrichment while maintaining a clean and safe environment. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their animals and home are being treated with respect and responsibility.

About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience, I provide personalized care for pets of all ages! I treat every animal like family—playtime, cuddles, and safety always come first! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs like medications or grooming. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I make sure every pet feels cared for and secure. Their happiness and well-being are always my top priority, every single day. I create a calm, clean, and safe environment tailored to each pet’s needs. In my home, pets enjoy a secure space with plenty of toys, supervised playtime, and comfy resting areas. When in a client’s home, I stick to their pet’s routine, keep things tidy, and ensure the pet feels comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, or snuggles—I give them all the love and attention they deserve

I highly recommend Blake. He was so gentle with my German Shepherd who is timid with others. Blake made sure my German Shepherd felt eased, Blake also sat down on the floor and talked to my dog. Will use him again to take out my dog during the day. Thanks Blake for doing a great job.
