“Leah was very accommodating and provided updates with pictures of my 1-year-old dog during her stay. I was at ease that my dog was being taken care of while I was out of town. I would rebook again.”


“I am thankful to Kelly and family for taking such good care of our dog. I think Edith had a great time with them. I so appreciated the pictures and could tell Edith was happy and contented. I think she misses her new friends! I wish I could have picked her up myself, but with crazy airline schedules, I would have been late, so my daughter who loves Edith as much as we do, came to get her and thought you were such good people. Thanks again.”

“Thank you Danielle for watching both of our pups this time! I know they have the best time at your house and get lots of love and play time!! We appreciate you so much!!”

About: Ive had dogs ever since i was little so i have a lot of experience! i currently have 1 dog and 2 cats that i love to take on walks and care for. i would be thrilled to help others and care for their pets when needed. feel free to reach out! **I will be unable to accept last minute bookings** i require 2 weeks in advance since i'm in college and have a part time job. 2 weeks also allows plenty if time to schedule a required meet and greet :) I only care for animals outside of my house due to all the pets i have in my home ! i can give basic care, oral medications, take on walks, and prepare mental stimulating games for high energy dogs.

About: I’ve had a personal family dog since I was 5, a second dog at 15, and have been watching neighbors and family members’ animals for 5+ years! I currently work full-time as a 5th grade math teacher. I’m available typically after 4pm on weekdays, and anytime over the course of the weekend. At my apartment I have a fenced in dog park where dogs can mingle and play. There is also an attached portage trails hike & bike trail friendly to animals!
“Catherine and her husband (sorry, I forgot his name) were amazing! They agreed to sit Myles last minute with no hesitation. We met and Myles loved them and Pepper! Thank you so much for keeping Myles. I think you guys spoiled him too much, lol!”

“Sydney and her boyfriend completely spoiled my dog with attention during his stay! I loved receiving all of the pictures and updates, he looked like he was right at home with them. We are so glad we found her and are looking forward to using her again in the future!”

About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs and other pets since I was young, and having animals in my life has always been something I’ve genuinely enjoyed. I understand that every dog has their own personality, comfort level, and individual needs. I’ve cared for dogs with anxiety, dogs who need extra patience and reassurance, energetic puppies, and dogs going through different stages of life. To me, pets aren’t just animals we’re responsible for; they’re family members who deserve to feel safe, loved, and included. I take that responsibility seriously and do my best to make every dog feel comfortable and at home. I’m currently offering affordable rates below the average local sitter’s pricing because I genuinely enjoy the companionship of dogs and want quality, attentive pet care to be accessible. My goal isn’t simply to watch your dog, but to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll gladly follow your dog’s established routines, feeding schedules, and individual care instructions, and I understand how important it is to keep pet parents updated and reassured. Your dog’s comfort and well-being will always come first! My schedule is currently very flexible, and I’m home throughout the day, allowing me to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I can accommodate different routines, feeding schedules, and activity levels. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods while in my care, and I’ll have plenty of time to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and included. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always come first. I believe pets are family and deserve to be treated with the same love, patience, and consideration as any other family member. I take each owner’s instructions seriously and will follow your dog’s established routines, rules, feeding schedules, boundaries, and care requirements to the letter. I understand that every dog is different, and I’ll never assume what works for one dog works for another. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and reassurance throughout your pup’s stay.
“Connie is Wonderful!!!! She gave me updates and pictures. Her dog was the perfect playmate for my dog. I felt confident leaving my dog with her because she has tons of experience with dogs. She is a trainer, a groomer and very active in the dog world. She is perfectly set up to handle multiple dogs. She has a nice fenced in, shaded backyard that is very private. It makes for a great doggie playground. My dog's stay was a totally positive experience. I would definitely book with Connie again. You can tell...Connie truly loves dogs!!! I can't say enough about her!!!”

About: Animals have always been part of my life, from Dalmatians and a Great Dane to a sassy pet chicken. I’ve cared for cats, dogs and even had lovebirds at one point! I truly enjoy connecting with each pet’s unique personality. Working from home with a flexible schedule means I have lots of time to give your pets the care and attention they need, whenever you need help. Think of my home as your pet's fun, safe hangout! Working from home means endless cuddles and playtime, with trust and their well being always my top priority.
“Samantha was great with my 3 fur babies. It was evident that my dogs loved her when I picked. them up because they kept running to her and to us. She was great to send pictures and videos while we were gone to let us know that they were doing great and enjoying the big backyard. I would definitely use Samantha again to watch our dogs.”
“Linda went above and beyond taking care of my two fur babies (dogs). It was a last minute meet and greet as my previous pet sitter decided not to watch my dogs. Linda and I met with all the animals to determine if it was a fit. It was. I received daily updates with photos. I am so grateful to Linda for loving my fur babies while I was away. She has such a love for animals. Thank you, Linda.”

“Mary was excellent! She watched our small pup for us and it was his first time away from us. Mary did a great job sending updates and pictures to help ease our anxiety. Could not recommend enough! Will be booking again :)”

About: I have done drop in and overnight care for family member's pets for many years. I am a life long animal lover and have cats and/or dogs my whole life. I also did some volunteer care at an animal shelter while in college. I am a stay at home mom of three (9, 7, and 5 year olds) kids who also love animals so I have the availability to provide a lot of time and attention. I have a fenced in yard in a beautiful country setting and two playmates for your pup. Robin is 13 year old chocolate lab mix, who we rescued from the roadside. She gave birth to 8 puppies about 2 months later and we were able to find loving homes for them all. We also have Emmett, who is a shepherd/spaniel mix that we adopted as a puppy during covid. He can be shy around new people, but loves to play with any dog he has met.
About: With 10+ years of hands-on clinical veterinary experience, combined with a lifetime of growing up around, caring for, and working with animals, I bring over a decade of cumulative experience in veterinary medicine, pet care, and animal husbandry. My experience with animals began long before my professional veterinary career and includes dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, cows, horses, and many other animals. This lifelong connection has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, care, handling, and well-being that extends far beyond the clinical setting. Throughout my veterinary career, I have consistently pursued continuing education through seminars, conferences, specialized training, and additional coursework to continually expand my knowledge and strengthen my clinical skill set. I have maintained **BLS and ALS CPR certification since 2020** and have been **Fear Free Certified since 2018**, along with holding numerous additional certifications, continuing education achievements, and awards earned throughout my career. The majority of my professional veterinary experience has been concentrated in **surgery, emergency medicine, and intensive care/ICU**, where attention to detail, critical thinking, and the ability to recognize subtle changes in a patient's condition are essential. These experiences have taught me to be highly observant and proactive, with a strong understanding of early warning signs and indicators that may suggest a patient is developing a problem. I take pride in being attentive to the small details that can make a significant difference in an animal's outcome. Pets are my passion, and pet people are my people. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with both animals and their families and believe exceptional veterinary care should be built on compassion, communication, trust, and a little fun along the way. Whether I am caring for a critically ill patient, assisting with surgery, supporting a fearful/nervous pet, or simply making an animal's day a little better, I bring the same level of dedication and enthusiasm to every patient. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, valued, and well cared for—and every pet parent deserves to know that their beloved companion is in capable, compassionate hands. Your furry family members will receive the highest level of care, attention, and compassion I can provide—and we'll have some fun along the way. I am comfortable and experienced in caring for patients across a wide range of ages, conditions, and levels of acuity. My clinical experience includes the safe administration and management of oral, injectable, and topical medications, as well as monitoring patients receiving ongoing or complex treatment plans. I am comfortable working with advanced and late-stage disease, chronic and complex medical conditions, hospice and end-of-life care, geriatric patients, pediatrics, neonates, and emergency cases. My background in surgery, emergency medicine, and ICU/critical care has strengthened my ability to remain calm and attentive in high-pressure situations while recognizing subtle changes in a patient's condition and responding appropriately. I understand that each patient requires an individualized approach, and I am committed to providing compassionate, thorough, and attentive care whether a patient is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic illness, beginning life as a neonate, facing an emergency, or approaching the end of life. I am equally comfortable providing hands-on nursing care, assisting with treatment plans, communicating observations to the veterinary team, educating and supporting pet parents, and advocating for the patient's comfort and overall quality of life. Pet care has been a huge part of my daily and weekly routine for more than 10 years. Whether I’m working in veterinary medicine or caring for pets in someone’s home, I’m accustomed to making animal care a priority and building it naturally into my everyday routine. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality, habits, routines, and individual needs. For me, providing consistent, attentive care isn’t simply a job—it’s something I’ve built my life around and truly love doing. I approach every pet as an individual and tailor my care to their specific personality, routine, medical needs, and comfort level. Whether I am caring for a pet in my own home or in a client's home, my priority is always to provide a **safe, calm, consistent, and loving environment** that feels as close to their normal routine as possible. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including puppies and kittens, seniors, anxious or fearful pets, medically complex patients, and animals requiring medications or additional monitoring. I can administer **oral, injectable, and topical medications**, follow detailed feeding and treatment instructions, monitor changes in behavior or condition, and recognize when something may warrant veterinary attention. My background in emergency, critical care, ICU, and surgery has made me particularly attentive to subtle changes that may indicate a problem. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect that I am also caring for someone's home and follow their instructions closely. I maintain established feeding, medication, exercise, potty, sleep, and enrichment routines whenever possible. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel connected while they are away. When caring for pets in my own home, I focus on creating a secure and comfortable environment while considering each animal's temperament, energy level, social preferences, and individual needs. I believe pets shouldn't simply be "watched" while their owners are away—they should receive attention, companionship, enrichment, affection, and quality care. Ultimately, my goal is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they are in capable and compassionate hands.

Kelly and her family are super nice, even with my hectic last minute scheduling. The pups went instantly with all the attention they were getting during our first meeting. I got random updates and some super cute photos of them during their first visit with her. Kelly is definitely an animal lover and it proves that she enjoys pet sitting!

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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
