“We are so happy we booked with Kerry! It was wonderful getting to meet her during our meet and greet, and we felt comfortable leaving our Labrador Retriever, Enzo, in her care. My husband and I were away for two days, and Kerry provided drop-in visits that included walks, feeding, playtime in the backyard, fresh water, and lots of great company for Enzo while we were away. She was so attentive and responsive throughout our time away and kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Enzo was happy and well cared for, and we truly appreciated how thoughtful and reliable Kerry was. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets like their own! 🐾❤️”
“Jacqui was great with drop in visits! Very reliable and checked in with me in the beginning to make sure she was doing all the right things for my dog Charlie. Thank you Jacqui for taking such good care of Charlie while I was away.”
About: Hey There! I'm Becky. I'm a mother, small business owner, and life-long dog lover. For my entire life I've always had dogs, but a few years my sweet dog crossed the rainbow bridge to doggy heaven. When that happened, my children started asking for a new dog, but I wasn’t quite ready. As an alternative we started helping others with theirs. It’s become an incredible journey for our family, and brings us so much joy! We’re happy to have dogs here for boarding. I only take ONE dog at a time, unless there are multiple dogs coming from the same home that already live together. I have two children (11 & 15) who both love dogs as well. However, my son is nervous around bigger dogs and certain breeds. For this reason, a trial visit is required. Dog sitting has brought an unexpected amount of happiness into our home and family. We get very excited with each new furry friend that we get to love while you’re away. I have a fenced yard and a cozy home. I allowed my dog on the furniture when I had him. I don’t have a crate. Whatever rules apply in your house are what we try to do here. Dogs can run free in my fenced yard or walk on a leash around my neighborhood and in the nearby nature trails. I run a small part-time preschool enrichment program out of my basement, in a separate area where dogs would not have access. During work hours I am generally able let dogs out as needed in a separate fenced area. If you are interested in having your dog stay with us, please feel free to contact me. We would love to provide a safe, happy home away from home for your beloved pet while you're away. Your pet will be treated as if they were our pet. We try our best to make our routines look like yours, creating a safe, happy home away from home. I live in a cute neighborhood abutting conservation land. It is beautiful! We use an organic pest company to keep ticks out of our yard and I keep my home tidy.
“Chelsea is wonderful. Very communicative, easy to make arrangements with and my cats love her. This is the second time I’ve used her and I’ll be using her again.”
“Brianna was an awesome cat sitter! She sent photos and updates everyday. My cats love her. Even my very shy cat, who normally hides from everyone but me, came out to say hi to her!”
“Nikkita was communicative and easy to work with! She helped out with a last minute request and was attentive, which made our dog’s first Rover visits very easy and enjoyable. Would book again!”
“Carolyn is the most caring, respectful, and attentive sitter! Carolyn has watched our pup multiple times now and he is always so well adjusted, happy, and doesn't miss a beat after being in her care! I will always prioritize booking Carolyn and try to schedule with her availability in mind, because she is just that good! Thank you, Carolyn!”
“Nicole takes great care of my cat Millie. She’s great at communicating and sending both pictures and updates. She’s even gets on the floor to play with Millie and give her lots of cuddles. I Highly recommend Nicole!!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for geriatric, diabetic, and epileptic dogs and cats, making me comfortable with special needs pets who require extra attention. I’m skilled at administering oral medications, giving insulin injections, and monitoring pets for any changes in their health or behavior. I also have plenty of experience walking dogs of all sizes—from tiny lap pups to large, energetic breeds—always focusing on their safety, comfort, and happiness. I currently work part-time as a Veterinary Assistant, which gives me hands-on experience with animal care and handling in a clinical setting. I’m also a student enrolled in an online Veterinary Technology program, so I’m always learning and expanding my knowledge about animal health and behavior. Because of my flexible schedule, I have availability on some weekdays and weekends for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. This allows me to combine my passion for animals with my professional training while giving pets the love and attention they deserve when their families can’t be there. Whenever I’m in a home with pets, I make it a priority to tune into their needs, read their body language, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Every pet has their own personality—some love long walks and playtime, while others just want cuddles and belly rubs. If your pet is the snuggly type, I’m always happy to curl up with them and give all the love, scratches, and attention they need!
“Rachel has been an awesome find! She is flexible and super communicative. We appreciate her attentiveness to our boy Moose and look forward to continuing to have her care for him!”
“Gianna was super communicative and attentive, she did a great job taking care of our nervous puppy and making sure he had the best experience for his first Rover visit. She was also so thoughtful about small details, like cleaning his Kong toy and bringing in packages, which goes such a long way :) will book again!”
About: I've had pets since I was a little girl and even worked at a dog grooming salon for three years, which I loved. Over the past 3 summers, I’ve been on Rover and love my experience with animals and clients. I am still recovering from surgery, and we can discuss that when booking with me. I want to create a place where owners feel like they can reach out me and trust me when needed Hello, I’m currently a college student home for the summer. Back in April, I had hip replacement surgery. Over the past few weeks, I've been able to get back on my feet and move around a little more. I was looking to help any furry friends around the area that need to be fed or let outside. Unfortunately, I can't handle large, high-energy dogs. Please reach out, and we can discuss. If anyone needs help with small dogs or cats, I'm your girl. During drop-ins, I typically follow the owners' requests, which include feeding the animals, playing with them, spending time together, letting them outside, and refilling their water, etc.
“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my precious fur baby. Communication was excellent and the photos along with videos made me so relaxed knowing she was being so well taken care of. I can’t say enough good things.”
About: I absolutely love working with animals, especially dogs! I have just about 4 solid years of experience with all types of dogs from puppies to seniors, small and large, and have even fostered before as well. I also currently have 2 mini labradoodles whom I love very much! I am a recent college grad and am living at home currently working part time, so my schedule is very flexible on any time or day for any type of sitting, drop in visit, or walk! I live in my house with my 2 other mini labradoodles and family. We have a fenced and very spacious backyard and also access to some very nice walking paths not far from the house as well!
“Carley is awesome! I would definitely have her take care of my 2 dogs again! She is reliable, professional, friendly, thoughtful and resilient. Highly recommend!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ashland stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Ashland choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
