“Dolce was very sweet and knowledgeable. My cat has special eating needs which Dolce was comfortable with. Bey looked happy and healthy when I returned. Dolce also noticed one of my outdoor plants was in need of water. She also took care of that. Thank you”
“Eliza did a great job watching our high energy German shepherd and our cat. They both loved Eliza and warmed right up to her. Eliza also gave us extra videos of our dog that had a slight injury just so we could see her progress. It was a relief to know that our babies were being taken care of while we were away.”
“I reached out to Dora last minute, and she was absolutely amazing! Despite encountering some trouble with the lock on my house during her first visit, she never gave up. Thanks to her fantastic care, my 11-year-old bulldog, Noelle, is feeling happy and content. I am incredibly grateful for Dora's last-minute help!”
About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats my whole life! I’m active and love going for walks outdoors with furry companions! Happy to lend a hand with domestic needs, provide companionship or care giving. I have a BA in graphic design and I’m skilled in social media, web design and advertising. I’m also pursuing my CNA license and I am happy to provide care giving service. DM for rates and availability! Open availability this summer.

“Aiyana was great with our two cats. It was our first time using her services and she was great. We have one "hidey" cat and he came out every day to see her which was great. I recommend her for cat sitting - reliable, communicative, and thorough.”
About: I've been taking care of my own dogs since I was a child and have regularly helped neighbors and family friends with their cats and dogs while they were away- even my friend's mice while they were traveling and my previous roommate's three rats. I'm home from college for the summer and would love to spend my time with your pets! I have a very flexible daily schedule that can adapt to the needs of your pet. My parents have two dogs, one of which is very loving but does not handle other dogs very well. Because of this, I'm not comfortable bringing pets back to my home, but I am very willing to come to your pets to take care of and spend time with them. I am available for shorter drop-in visits, with feeding, play time, and/or walks, as well as longer visits and overnight stays with your pet.
“I’m so grateful for Brandy who took excellent care of my pup. I’m use to being home all day with my dog, and knowing Brandy was giving her the best care and attention eased my mind. When I arrived home my sweet pup was so relaxed and happy. Brandy went above and beyond, best service ever!”
About: Hi, I’m Jen! I’m a reliable, caring pet sitter with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets with someone trustworthy, and I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, basic medication instructions, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away. I’m patient with shy pets, attentive with seniors, and happy to send photo updates so you know your pets are safe and loved. I’m currently working part time with a variable schedule. Call me and let’s work something out today , whether it be walks, stays or visits! ✌️🦮🐈⬛ I will care for your pets at your home including any feeding or medication logs and photos you require. Overnight stays always available as well.
About: I have years of experience caring for pets, including my own animals and those of neighbors and friends. I genuinely love all types of animals and enjoy feeding, playing, or going on walks with them. I just got my own kitty about a year ago, since I am in Ashland for school and basketball, but I have a dog, two cats, and a chicken back in my hometown! I’m very comfortable with both cats and dogs, so I would love the opportunity to help take care of your pets or walk your dogs and make sure they’re happy and well cared for! I currently attend SOU as a student and women's basketball player, so I have classes throughout the week, as well as a few basketball practices/workouts. It is our off-season, however, so my basketball load is pretty light and I would most likely be gone for only 2 1/2 hours max during a few days of the week. I have a kitty who I take very good care of and love to death, so there would be no problem with your pets! I love going for walks throughout the day, so I would love to take your dog for a walk as well! I live in a clean, cozy apartment that my own cat loves. I would follow your cat’s usual routine and make sure they feel calm and cared for. I would give them all the love and attention that they need so that you feel comfortable leaving them with me:) I also live in a safe, outdoorsy neighborhood that’s great for dog walking, but I love to walk dogs anywhere. I always keep dogs on a leash and pay close attention to our surroundings to make sure they stay safe and comfortable as well!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs on and off my whole life. I was a drop in and stay in sitter for weeks at a time in high school and miss it a lot! I would stay at families houses, walk, feed, and occasionally bathe dogs. I’ll play with the energetic ones all day :) during the summer i work at the outdoor program and the student rec center at SOU. my schedule is fairly flexible so i have lots of time for your pets! i typically make sure to drop in at least twice a day. bedtime visits are no problem! i provide care in your home since that’s where your pet is most comfortable! i’m very diligent about following daily schedules. if your pet has any specific needs, please let me know :)
“Sandra got our why cat to come out to play! Not always possible. Thank you, Sabra, for your care of Aziraphale, being consistent each day and keeping us posted with photos! Will be on touch again next time we need someone to drop on in while we're away!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was in middle school, up to now as a recent graduate of SOU. I own two cats currently, and have owned many dogs and cats with my family throughout my life. I pet sit often for friends, neighbors and coworkers. I care so much about animals and their safety and comfort, and enjoy being around them! I was dog sitting german shepards as young as 11 years old, and have most recently cat sit for a coworker of mine at the beginning of January. I love the routine of taking care of pets, especially when I am pet sitting. I try to spend as much time as I can throughout the day with the animal, frequently visiting if possible. If I do not have work I will spend lots of time hanging out with the animal throughout the day. I will always visit before I head into work, and on my way home from work. I will then visit once more later in the evening before going to bed. I am super attentive towards a pet’s needs. I follow all instructions with care, and communicate consistently with the owner to make sure the pet is receiving proper attention and care throughout the process. I love sending photos to owners every day if possible, and I spend plenty of time playing, feeding, and walking the animal (depending on what it needs).
About: My yellow lab Yofi was my shadow for 13 years. I am not ready to get another dog, but I love pet-sitting Walks around the block every morning and evening, long hikes off leash every afternoon. I am retired from my counseling practice. I spend a lot of time at home. I do volunteer work in the Community, but usually take dogs with me. I have a large home with a fenced- in back-yard. Dogs can sleep on my bed or on their own doggie bed next to mine.
“Exceeded my expectations in every way. Sarah truly Loves and understands dogs, including puppies. Her effervescent nature and positive outlook have made her a joyful addition to our family. We love her. Trust is hard to find.”
About: I am a friendly and professional house sitter with a deep love for all animals, and I'm eager to provide exceptional care for your cats, dogs, and other beloved pets. I understand how important your furry family members are, as my own heart belongs to my beautiful Pug, Sol, whom I've raised since she was a puppy. I even had the experience of bottle-feeding her, so I'm comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from newborns to seniors. Beyond my personal experience, I'm well-versed in all aspects of pet care, including yard maintenance, scheduled feedings, potty routines, and of course, plenty of playtime! I'm an avid walker and would be delighted to provide your furry friend with the exercise and love they deserve. I'm committed to ensuring your pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for, giving you peace of mind while you're away. Currently, my academic schedule allows me to be available 7 days a week. I am comfortable creating and maintaining routines for animals, and I am eager to help you care for your pets. I love to serve my community and would love to serve your families needs. I would be delighted to schedule a complimentary meet-and-greet to get to know you and your pets. This will give us a chance to discuss their specific routines, personalities, and any unique needs they may have. I pride myself on my calm and friendly demeanor, and I've found that animals generally feel comfortable with me very quickly. When providing care in your home, you can trust that I will be attentive to all the little details that keep your household running smoothly. My goal is to provide peace of mind, knowing your beloved companions are in capable and caring hands.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ashland
Aiyana immediately connected with my two cats and sent lovely pictures each visit. They clearly welcomed her attention, liked playing with toys with her, and would no doubt like to see her again after they chide me for going on a trip! I would definitely book with her again.
Mackie did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away. She made sure our cat was safe, eating well, and that her food and water bowls were always full. Although our cat is a bit shy and didn’t come out much, Mackie was still very attentive and thoughtful. She kept us updated with photos and reached out if she had any questions, which gave us peace of mind during our trip. I would definitely recommend her!
Stacy was wonderful! I could tell she has a big heart from the moment we met her. She took excellent care of our 2 kitty boys and even got our very cautious/skittish fella to come out for pets! Great communication and a lovely experience all around. Would highly recommend her to anyone.
I highly recommend Anna to take care of your pet needs while traveling. During an extended period of travel, Anna was very responsible in caring for my two cats, consistently communicative with photo updates, and even went out of her way to collect mail / packages and water plants while I was away. If you’re looking for a kind, responsible pet sitter who will care about your fur children as much as you do, Anna will not disappoint. A+ Rover sitter.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
