“Alecia was great. We received daily updates with pictures. Lots of walks and cuddles, and we felt the animals were in great hands. Came home to a clean house. Would fully recommend.”

“Gabby was great with our dog, she took great care of him and our house! The house was spotless on our return, and our normally anxious dog seemed as happy as usual which was a relief for us. She was very quick with communicating, we would definitely have Gabby sit for us again.”

“Kathleen watched our pup for a week (our longest time away yet). Our pup was around 9 months old at the time, so despite the extra work that comes with a younger dog, we were very comfortable and reassured while away! She sent daily updates + photos, and we know our girl was cared for like she was her own. Kathleen also fed our fish and left the house in great shape, which we greatly appreciated. Would happily book her again for any future sittings!”

“Crystal did an amazing job with our pup, who takes a while to warm up when we are away. Crystal's daily updates were very thorough, and she is very conscientious and caring. We know our girl is in good hands with Crystal!”

“Wow! Thanks Allison for a great stay! When our original rover sitter cancelled at the last minute, Allison stepped in and stepped up, providing excellent care of Fiona and our home. We find Allison, reliable, trustworthy, and professional - she bonded with Fiona immediately - it is obvious she loves dogs. Allison sent pictures and updates daily. Highly recommend - will definitely use Allison again!”

“Patrice was fantastic housesitting for our elderly dog and young pup for a week. They had great care and Patrice kept us well-informed when one of the dogs didn’t seem to feel well for a day or so. It was a great comfort to have someone who cares so much about animals and their well-being looking after the dogs while we were away!”

“I would highly recommend Andrea. Andrea is an amazing pet sitter. She’s a great communicator, and she’s never given us reason to worry about her arriving on time or leaving early. Andrea has stayed in our home several days now and leaves little to no trace that she was there. Our animals love her and she follows all my notes, so they get the best care when I’m away. Because of Andrea, I can take guilt- and worry-free trips.”

“Shea was wonderful! Not only did she do this for a week before (our bad), but she was so caring and attentive to our 2 dogs. They are high energy most of the time unless they have someone to snuggle 🙂!! Thank you so much for your care! We are so appreciative! We will definitely be reaching back out to shea for further service with our dogs as she made us feel very comfortable. :)”

“Imani did a great job house-sitting and watching my cat, Penny! She provided updates everyday and was quick to respond to messages! She left the place spotless and Penny loved her! I would definitely recommend her and will be reaching out to her again in the future!”


About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, bearded dragons, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, etc. I look forward to caring for your pet and treating them like my own! I’m working part time at the moment and have flexible hours, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet on a schedule that works for you! I make sure to keep the dog’s schedule as typical as possible and I listen to any instructions that the owner may have for me.
“Brook was super helpful, picking up a house sitting request on only a few days notice. She made time for a meet and greet before hand and took great care of Lottie.”

“This was our first experience hiring a pet sitter and we couldn’t be more pleased with Jessalyn! Our pets were very well taken care of! We have already scheduled with her for next month. Thanks, Jessalyn!”

“Bethany was wonderful for our first time working with her! She was a great communicator and sent lots of photos and updates while we were away, which we really appreciated. She did everything we asked and we came home to a clean house and happy pets. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands :)”


“Eric was incredible. He accepted our last minute request and came over with a great attitude and was very professional. And our dog LOVED him, we could tell right away that Eric is a dog person. Great experience with Eric, would definitely hire again!”

“Nikka did an amazing job caring for our two dogs for the week. She stayed in constant contact, sending pictures every day. We never doubted that our dogs weren’t in the best of care. Highly recommend! Thank you Nikka!”

About: I have been taking care of animals great and small since I was very young. I have a lot of experience with senior animals as well as youngsters. I do not have a busy schedule in school so I would be able to visit your pet(s) in the mornings and evenings throughout the week. I give any pet I care for an abundance of attention and care. I will also make sure any specific needs about your pet are met and no details go unnoticed.

About: You can count on me to treat your pet like another member of my family. Growing up on a farm exposed me to animals of all sizes from an early age and gave me a deep love for them. We always had dogs and cats, plus other animals. Because of this, I am comfortable administering medications to your pets and ensuring they get the love and attention you are looking for. I've had my rescue Pit, Rusty, for the past 5 years, and I love being a dog dad. I am a bit of a runner, so I am happy to take on high-energy dogs, whether that is for a longer walk or a good run. I am looking forward to helping you with your pet's needs and working toward being their new best friend! I currently work remotely as a freelancer and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule both during the day and evenings. I can host most weekends and live down from Eden Park. I'll do my best to work around your pet's needs and routine to meet you where you are! I believe in following what works best for your pet and reinforcing any behaviors/training you are currently working on with them. I also believe every pet should be loved and spoiled just like any family member. My day job is communications and marketing, so you can expect regular and consistent updates from me.
“Shannon is the absolute GREATEST! She’s professional, communicative and took amazing care of our animals. She’s not our first Rover but I'm hoping she’ll be our last! I am so relieved we found her and will always be our go to for when we need our pets looked after. 11/10. Thank you Shannon!”

“Another great stay with Elizabeth! Our boys and house were well cared for during our one week vacation. When we left one of our dogs had nervous poops but she watched him and let us know everything returned to normal in 48 hours. That's a relief when you're not there to see for yourself and care for your dog. She's very thoughtful with feedback about the dogs and takes great pictures of them too! We'll definitely hire her again.”

“We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care Celeste provided for Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup! She went above and beyond in every way. Throughout the weekend, she kept us updated with photos and messages, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Celeste was professional, attentive, and clearly treated our pets as if they were her own. Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup absolutely loved her, and we could tell they were comfortable and well loved the entire time. We highly recommend Celeste to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and top-notch pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

Alecia is an absolutely incredible dog sitter. She kept me regularly informed of how Bobbis day went and sent lots of pics. In addition she left the house in immaculate condition and Bobbi seemed incredibly chilled and relaxed when I got home. Bobbi also has some special requirements due to previous health injuries and again she accommodated these so well. A huge thank you Alecia.

Patrice was awesome! She came for a meet and greet and the dogs loved her from the start. On the day we left she arrived on time and communicated frequently and effectively. We appreciated the photos and messages she sent and the dogs were happy. We will definitely ask her to watch them again!

Olivia was wonderful with our two dogs. One of them unexpectedly needed medication during the time we were going to be on vacation and Olivia had no problem accommodating us at the last minute. Knowing that she was taking great care not only of our dogs, but of our house as well, gave us the peace of mind to be able to actually enjoy our time away. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

We had an excellent experience with Elizabeth as our house sitter! She took wonderful care of our two dogs (and fish) while we were away for a long weekend, giving us complete peace of mind. Despite our last minute request, she was flexible, reliable, and quick to help, which we truly appreciated. It was clear that our pets were well cared for and loved while we were gone. We are sad to see her leave the Cincinnati area, but we have no doubt she will be just as successful and appreciated in her new community. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter! 5 stars all around!

Eric was incredible. He accepted our last minute request and came over with a great attitude and was very professional. And our dog LOVED him, we could tell right away that Eric is a dog person. Great experience with Eric, would definitely hire again!

Lauryn took excellent care of Bailey and our home. We had an emergency at the house while Lauryn was watching Nailey overnight. She handle the issue responsiblyy, communicating with us and handling items until my husband could get home. She clearly went above and beyond. I would definitely ask Lauryn to watch Bailey again.

Cara did a fantastic job taking care of our home and dog for a week. Our house was spotless and our dog was so happy and calm when we came home. She is not only responsible and great with communication, she is also a lovely person. She even left us a sweet note. We will definitely use her again!
