About: Aloha! I want to help you and your family member (dog/pets) feel less stressed about being away from each other! I noticed that every time I used a kennel service for our fur baby, our dog would get so scared, sick, stress shed, nervous/anxiety, she would not eat, different times she caught kennel cough (which meant more vet bills), and our dog was definitely unhappy with the small kennel space surrounded by other upset loud barking pups/dogs/animals! I believe I can help your dog/pet feel loved, safe, comfortable, fed, clean, exercised, washed (optional), fun/waggy tails, like our family when you are away. My name is Michelle. I love animals! We have a small dog, bunny and fish! I used to volunteer at SPCA and Paw-sitive (Non profit, walk, groom, and feed stray dogs until they got adopted). I have housesit/housesat and dogsit/catsit/ bird and turtles-sat for friends and was suggested to extend my love on ROVER! (Side note: My husband goes to work during the day.I recently changed our schedule to homeschooling my 3 yr old. My 2 kids are used to me caring, playing, and walking other dogs. They loves animals as well. We all have experience caring for animals, see pictures). I have went out of the way to teach , show and guide my children to be gentle, slow approaching/no sudden movements, no chasing, be responsible, ask before petting, and to be aware around animals. I want to help other families feel comfortable and confident to leave their pet with me. We have our Covid shots and boosters. I am home everyday (except 3-4hours out of the house now and then for groceries , gym, or friends farm, or kids play dates). I keep my distance from crowds, we sanitize, and wash our hands frequently. I clean the house and wipe everything all the time. We got a new Hoover carpet wash, and our dog is up to date with shots! Your pet is safe and will be treated like royalty, pampered, loved like our pup/family! I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too, if you like. Your dog/cat/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I have owned dogs most my life (had my first pup with the responsibilities at 6 years old, and owned/fostered animals on and off for about 34 years) …cared for puppies, adults and senior dogs such as pit bulls, Pekingese, Shih Tzu , mini pincher Dobermans ,then fostered a German Shepard, a black pup Labradors, also taken cared of a Golden Retrievers, a Pitbull, poodles, bulldogs, Soft- wheat Terriers, birds, hamsters, turtles, a class pet guinea pig, and cared for friends cats too (see photos). (Yes, I have a small dog but our house is big enough to have another dog/cat/pet around . I can gate, and keep my dog separate if need) Your pet will be taken out for a run or walk at least 4x a day (usually 4-9 times with pictures)! Schedule: I take your/our dog out first thing in the morning, break, lunch, then around 3-4pm, around/after dinner time, and right before bedtime too ( update you with photos)! I will spend time with your dog/cat/pet. I will sit with, read to, massage, clean, comb, feed and pet (constantly check on, if they don’t want to be disturbed)! Even while I read to my kids, homeschool or while we watch tv at night. And my dog will be gated, separated, away from your dog/pet when we are out and when requested. I left my 911 emergency call taking position to be a stay at home mother. I would love to care for, walk, play, cuddle with your dog and take your dog to the park with us too ! *** ONLY DOGS UNDER 35lbs at this time. Thank you*** I have a lot of room, space, toys, pillows, blankets for your pup/dog/cat/pet (separated away from our dog), open concept spacious house, and animal-friendly neighborhood. I live in a cul-de-sac with extremely caring sweet neighbors that know me/us. Several families around us have animals of their own and I know most dogs have been trained or gone thru training as well as ours. I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too if you like. Your dog/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I will keep your dog/pet on a leash every time we go outside, so they don't go missing or let other dogs bother them ***Off leash free to run roam inside the house ***! Our dog is up to date with all shots, vet visits, and takes medication for tick/flee, heart worms. We give our dog a shower once every other week and when she gets muddy. I can help clean your dog/pet too, let us know!

“Very accommodating when I needed to cancel day of because one of my dogs started to get sick the night before. Also went above and beyond to come over early before I needed to get to work to show me how a gentle-lead works and see how my dog would react to having it on.”

“Thanks Maureen! I know Riley loves your visits and I appreciate your flexibility for scheduling, the time you spend with my pets, and the photos you send. Great job!”

“Charlotte was on time and reliable. I knew my dog was in good hands. She gives her long walks and always sends a picture, which we appreciate!”

About: My life has been devoted to helping animals of all shapes and sizes! I’m so grateful to have met so many amazing animals in my life, and I can’t wait to meet yours, too! I just finished my PhD in animal behavior (working with raccoons!). I’m between jobs and just moved back to Cincinnati, so I’m excited to meet some new animal friends here! Before that I did my masters degree working with fish, and I have worked in zoos, veterinary hospitals, and with wildlife! As you can guess, I’m comfortable and knowledgeable about animals of all kinds. I promise to treat your pets like my own and work with you to help them have an enriched, happy life! I am comfortable with reactive or anxious dogs who may need more attention on walks and use a positive reinforcement based approach. Also experienced caring for dogs (or cats) who might be anxious, unsure, or even just a little quirky! I love kittens/puppies, seniors and everyone in between! Happy to help if your pet has unique needs, requires medication, or needs extra attention on walks or during visits. I am not comfortable using shock/e-collars, prong collars, or “choke” chains, so if your dog requires these for walks we may not be a good fit. Helicopter dog mom to my own 1.5 year old medium standard poodle who keeps me on my toes! Would love to start working with you and your pet to help them live their best life! I prioritize your animals and am available most days of the week. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Let me know if you think your dog might enjoy walking with mine and we can do a dog meet and greet too! I’m conscientious about entering your home and promise to triple check locks and doors when I go! I know it is hard to trust a stranger in your home so will openly communicate to help you and your animals feel comfortable!

“Molly was great! Definitely want her to walk our dog again!”

“Thank you!”

About: I have experience with a variety of animals from dogs and cats to horses, birds, and reptiles. These have been my own pets or others' pets. I've helped with puppy care and senior dog care. I am a mental health therapist. I have my own private practice, so I have great flexibility. I don't work on Saturday or Sunday. Those days I am open. I have a fenced in backyard for my 2 dogs. Inside the house they have plenty of space to roam, play and relax. They get walks and see their favorite vet when needed.

About: Grew up with dogs. Haven’t had as many dogs as cats as they required more attention than cats and Rover didn’t exist when I was younger. I had 3 dogs in my young adult life over the course of 30 years. Currently we have a 9 year old pittie rescue and she is well cared for. I’m recently retired so my schedule is very flexible. Rover has made it possible for us to travel with peace of mind that our pets would be cared for. So I figured it would be a good fit as a retirement job and now I can give others the same peace of mind. The retired lifestyle has left me very flexible for going to people’s homes to help with their cat and dog maintenance while they travel. Currently not looking to offer in home services.

“Maria and her husband were very welcoming. They respected the boundaries of our dog, who gets quite anxious around unfamiliar people. They were thoughtful, and together we planned activities that made us feel comfortable.”

“Jenna stepped in at the last minute when my husband was hospitalized unexpectedly. She always goes above and beyond!”

Bev M.

“Raven and her partner have been amazing support to us for our two dogs. They have been responsible, attentive and caring in every way we could wish for. They embraced each of our dogs for the characters they are, taking extra steps with our anxious baby and making sure both get their needs met. They communicated clearly and transparently. We couldn’t have asked for more. Definitely recommend!”

About: I've been pet-sitting and taking care of my own dogs for most of my life and I love it! From snuggles to playing fetch, I’ll love your pet like my own. I have a large, spacious apartment with plenty of room to run and lots if great walks nearby. My schedule is very flexible, as I only need to be in the office two times per week and work from home the other days. Your home is your home, so whatever the rules are, I want to abide by them! Having structure and consistency for pets is important and I want to help you maintain that. I have a one year old border collie/lab mix who loves playing with other dogs that your pet can become friends with should you need our boarding service!

About: I am a dedicated petsitter who provides excellent services to your furry friend. I pay attention to detail in their behavior, health, and even the routines. As you choose my services, you can trust that your furry companion will receive the love and attention they deserve and that you'll always be in the loop about their care. I currently have plenty of time to play and take care of your fur baby. I do take same-day visits, however, please note I will not always be available due to my work schedule. Rest assured the fur baby will always be played with and snuggled from time to time. Do let me know if they have a restricted schedule. I normally help with refreshing my clients dogs water bowl at every meal, take them out to use the restroom, and play with them. If there are set guidelines, a printed form of the steps would be highly suggested. In addition, you always will be communicated.

About: I have been in the animal care business for the last 10 years. I personally have a very loved dog that I have cared for, for the last 11 years. On top of caring for my family’s pets over the last 16 years. I work full-time with several days working from home. I know how important an animals schedule is and would do everything to maintain that so the pet’s routine is not affected. My dog and kitten get everything the want and everything I think they need 🤣. Leaving your animal in the trust of me would guarantee that the things you want done for your family are completed. These can include walks, playing with certain toys, or the use of certain leashes or collars.

“Leidy was awesome. She was on time and followed the directions perfectly that were left for her! My dog had a blast and would highly recomened!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life! I love animals and currently have an Anatolian Shepherd who is 4. I am good with big and small dogs. I also have a cat! I work part-time with great flexibility for mornings & afternoons even some evenings, allowing me to easily adapt to your pet's specific routine, potty breaks, and daily exercise needs anytime. Whether in my home or yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. I strictly follow your pet's exact feeding, potty, and medication routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In your home, I respect your space and keep environments completely secure. In mine, I ensure a fully pet-proofed, supervised setting, keeping you updated with photos along the way.

About: I have had pets for my whole life. Most of my friends called my house a "zoo" growing up because of the wide range of animals we had around the house, from puppies to snakes to pigs- we had it all. When caring for another animal, I treat it like it were my own. I always saw my pets as an extension of my own family and want to treat all animals the same way. I am currently home from college right now, so I am flexible. I have 3 pets of my own who I take care of, other than that I am free. It depends on the pet and their individual needs. I have a dog, but he is extremely active and loves being outdoors, so letting him out every hour or couple minutes is important for him. Whereas, another dog may not enjoy. being outside as much or have certain medical needs that prevents them from running. I love cuddling up on the couch with my pets (dog and two cats), and giving them affection. I also enjoy spending time with them by getting them active and playing their favorite games/ toys.

“She is very nice and treated my dogs well.”
