“Ava was AMAZING! Great communication, we loved the pics she sent of our girls. Both of our girls were very happy and well taken care of by Ava during our time away.”

“We can’t say enough great things about Madelyn she took amazing care of our boys, Jett and Griffin, while we were away. From the start, communication was fantastic — we received regular updates, adorable photos:)”


“Melanie took great care of our fur babies while we were away for Thanksgiving. We received regular updates about our girls and they were happy and doing well when we returned. She left everything in the house clean when we returned. She is a very sweet and loving person, loves the fur babies. I would recommend and will use Melanie again in the future.”


About: I’ve had animals my entire life and bring both experience and genuine care to every pet I watch. I was raised on a farm surrounded by animals, and I’ve owned dogs for most of my life, including a small dog I cared for over 16 years. I currently have an 8-month-old Golden Retriever puppy, so I’m very comfortable with puppy energy, routines, and reinforcement of basic training. I work as a teacher Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM. Because of this, I’m most available for pet care in the mornings, evenings, and overnight stays during the week. My schedule also allows for consistent availability on weekends, holidays, and school breaks, which gives me extra flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and extended care. When caring for pets, I prioritize maintaining their normal routines and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship outside of my work hours.
“Patricia was great with our Great Dane. She provided updates & kept on touch- even stayed late and offered to stay an extra day if we had flight issues. She also gave her medications as needed- will be definitely using again :)”


“Laura was amazing! She was great with our babies, and her communication was great! It made me feel so much better knowing they were well cared for and I didn’t have to worry about them! We will definitely use her again!”
“Miriam did a fantastic job taking care of goose and Delta. She was reliable, on time, and fantastic with communication. Set my mind at ease while I was away! I would happily refer her to anyone who needs a dog or pet sitter and will definitely be using her again!”

“She is so kind. I knew our boys were in caring hands. This was our first trip since Brady was diagnosed with pretty crippling arthritis. He requires twice a day meds and all the TLC. She communicated, sent pictures, and really reassured us that Brady was doing well. Would love to have her stay again!”

“Kam was such a blessing to us! She was caring and attentive and affectionate to my furry friends and went above and beyond for everyone even when she didn't have to. She booked with us last minute and put up with so many directions and last minute changes and surprises. I can't say enough about her. Thank you so much Kam. 🙏🙏🙏❤️”

About: I frequently pet sit / house for friends and family, and enjoy it - so I figured why not try out Rover to make some extra cash while giving pets and their owners the comfort of knowing their furry loved ones are safe/happy in their own home. Currently I work a full-time job at The Ohio State University with my weekday schedule set at 7am-4pm. My evenings and weekends are free - except for the occasional concert and Columbus Crew home games. I am a very attentive pet sitter who enjoys the company of pets and will tend to the pet’s needs as the owner sees fit.
“Patricia took such good care of our girls while we were on vacation! We received daily updates and photos and could tell how comfortable our girls were. We came home to happy girls and our home in good order. We would definitely use Patricia again, it's clear to see our girls love her and were well taken care of.”

“Best first experience ever! Dejon took excellent care of my Cookie. He even gave her the ear medication the ended up being a last minute thing. He took her for big walks and was very attentive to her!! He even sent me plenty of videos and pictures!!! Will definitely book again! Thank you Dejon for being amazing!”

“My pups had a great day with Nicole! I had a long day out of town - too long for my dogs to be alone all day. Nicole spent time playing with and loving on them. They’ve been snooza poloza since I got home! Nicole’s interactions with both of my dogs - even anxious Dexter - meant I could spend the day away with confidence because she’s so great with them. Thank you!”

“Always super helpful and nice when I book with her. This was a last minute booking and I’m so thankful she was available. My dog has crazy anxiety and compared to the first time and this one she took barely any time to get used to Kaelin.”

“Madison was great! She took care of our dog, rabbit, and fish tanks for a week in our home and everything was in perfect shape when we came back. We got daily updates and photos of the animals and they all looked like they were having a great time. We will definitely have Madison back!”


“Madison was great with our dogs! She communicated often with updates and sent lots of photos and videos. My boys seemed to have a great time with her which allowed me to relax and enjoy our vacation. Will absolutely book with her again in the future!”
