Top rated Chillicothe pet sitters

“Keri was awesome - we initially booked her because another sitter had to cancel due to illness and she responded very quickly and was able to set up a meet and greet the next day. She communicated well during her drop in visit and as an added bonus, sent us a bunch of pictures of our super cute cats. Well be using Keri in the future!”


“Katelyn walks my dog weekly and also stayed overnight last minute. My dog is a bit needy and Katelyn responds so patiently to her! She sends pictures during her visit and is so kind. Leave your pets with her if you’re usually nervous about leaving them with other people like I am!!”


“Izzy did great! Always kept me updated on my cat and made sure to send plenty of pictures! My cat can be a little picky with people, but he really seemed to enjoy her company!!”


“***** I recently had the pleasure of having Parker step in as a substitute dog sitter, and I must say I am absolutely delighted with her service. While my regular dog sitter was unavailable, Parker seamlessly filled the role and provided exceptional care for my furry friend. From the very beginning, Parker exhibited a high level of professionalism and a true passion for dogs. Her friendly and accommodating demeanor immediately put me at ease, and I felt confident in entrusting my beloved pet to her care. Throughout her time with my dog, Parker provided regular check-ins, complete with adorable pictures and updates. It was evident that she not only cared for my dog's physical well-being but also their emotional happiness. Furthermore, Parker's punctuality and reliability were impeccable. She consistently arrived at the scheduled times and made sure that my dog's feeding and playtime adhered to our usual routine. In summary, Parker, as a substitute dog sitter on Rover, went above and beyond my expectations. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals were truly impressive. My dog not only received excellent care but also clearly enjoyed her time with Parker. I wholeheartedly recommend Parker to anyone in need of a responsible and loving dog sitter. I am grateful for her outstanding service and will undoubtedly reach out to her again in the future.”


“Kara was great. She made sure the cats were fed, had water and had clean boxes and provided pictures daily (even though the cats never came out when she was there).”


“Mairin is beyond reliable, so great with communication and she takes great care of my Stella girl, and she’s just a sweetheart! It’s nice to have people who you know will treat your pup like their own, and I know Mairin does just that!”


“Erin did an amazing job watching my three cats and dog while I was away for a few days. She provides lots of great pictures of everyone, is very communicative/professional about any unforeseen changes to the schedule, and I always come home to happy kiddos.”


About: I have my own pets who I take care of everyday and have been surrounded by animals since I was little. I understand that pet care is very individualized and am adaptable. I am very flexible with anything that is needed schedule wise. I am available for overnight stays for any day of the week, but weekends would be preferable I will be aware of the pet at all times and will do my best to keep them in a confortable environment with a new person in their house.


“Kristine was so great with my cat Sushi! She helped him with his electronic water bowl that fell over and was very sweet to him. Thank you so much and will ask again in the future! :)”

About: Hi! My name is Stephanie, and my husband, three kids (3, 7, and 10) and I are so excited to love your dog while you’re away! A Roof for Ruffs is the brainchild of our 10yo daughter. We are a foster family for a local dog rescue organization where we take in one or two dogs at a time until they can find their forever homes. We’re having so much fun with fostering that our sweet girl suggested we take on paying clients between our fosters, and donate some of the proceeds to the same local dog rescue organization. ♥️ I’ve owned dogs my whole life. Between fostering, petsitting for family, neighbors and friends, and caring for my own pups, I have experience with all ages—from very young puppies to seniors and everything in between; small and large breeds; well-behaved and questionable; medical cases, and even the occasional cat. 😱 Your dog’s vacay siblings for their stay will include a 2yo female Great pyr/St. Bernard rescue pup, and two 4yo guinea pigs. We are so very excited to meet your dog, and to treat them like family for their stay. My husband works full time, but I am a freelance writer with flexible hours working from home while caring for our three kids. In other words: your pup won’t be left alone often! 😆 **Please note: all pets must have proof of updated vaccines and be okay with kids (they will be loved on and spoiled by our kiddos while they’re here!) I am home daily with my kids, so lots of potty breaks and playtime is possible throughout the day. We are available most weekdays or weekends unless blocked while we have a foster or for travel. We have a 4-foot aluminum fence in the backyard and live on a public park with a walking trail for easy exercise options. We have extra dog crates here if your pup is crate-trained or feel free to bring your own.

About: My husband and I have grown up with dogs and cats our entire lives. We love animals and helping out fellow animal lovers. I have experience administering insulin to diabetic animals, feeding/watering and walking. I currently work only 3 days a week and my husband works from home full-time giving us plenty of time to spend with your furry friends!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—from playful puppies to mellow seniors. I’m comfortable with crate routines, medication administration, and high-energy breeds that need extra playtime or structured walks. Whether your dog loves belly rubs, fetch marathons, or just quiet companionship, I tailor my care to fit their personality and needs. I treat every pup like my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-exercised while you’re away. I am home all day as I work remotely! I take several breaks throughout the day to make sure the animals are taken care of. We have 2 dogs, 2 cats and 18 chickens. Our animals are out and about all day in our home and our chickens have a coop outdoors. We are always outside with our animals to ensure safety.

About: I’ve cared for furbabies of mine and others’ since I was a little girl. My family had a small farm and we have always cared for animals. Snakes and chickens too! Animals are gifts to this world, and I’m honored with the opportunity to spend more time with them. I’m currently self-employed, so have plenty of time to work around your schedule and your furbabies needs.

I offer daycare at my home and sleepovers for pets in my/your home. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a big back yard, near the river and lots of room to play!

About: When it comes to taking care of your pets they become my first priority! I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was a young age. I’ve worked in the veterinary field for 4 years. So if you have a senior pet or have one that needs daily medication I’m your gal! Along with all other services or skills from the veterinary field. I’d your pet needs long walks I’ll be there!

Either way time would be spent to take care of your pets however you’d like! Spending time with them by playing and loving them!

About: I have worked at a doggy daycare before. I shadowed a vet. I have my own dog, Nash, who is a Siberian Husky. I’ve dealt with meds, food schedules, and much more. I’m a Pre-Vet college student and work part time, so this is just a means to make extra money. I figured it would be fun because who doesn’t love meeting new pups? I have a dog who LOVES to play with others. He is a Siberian Husky, so he will def wear them out! Haha. He also has plenty of toys to share!

About: I took care of my neighborhood dogs growing up anytime my neighbors would go out of town (both dog sitting and walks for 3 dogs). I am so excited to meet your pets! I also have a 2 year old who loves dogs. I'd be happy to bring her along if you are child training or just want your dog to feel extra love! I have a very flexible schedule so pet care can fit in almost anytime! I love to involve my toddler on walks and play times, but I can also do walks and visits on my own if you'd prefer. I'm happy to accommodate your preferences! I like to maintain as much of a normal routine for your dog as possible. I am comfortable crating, feeding, brushing, and playing inside or outside.

Whitney & Nathan F.
“Is there such thing as too pet friendly? If so, Nathan and Whitney fit that category. They have watched our dog and treated him as if he were their own on multiple occasions. Their dog, Stanley, gets along great with him and provides for great companionship. Their backyard has so much space for the dogs to run around and play together—bonus is that it’s fenced! I was also surprised at the photos I received of their cat (Morty) and my dog, Crosby! He is just as friendly with the guests as Stanley is. 10/10 recommend Whitney and Nathan. They provide many pictures and videos and continue to create the ultimate rover experience. I plan to book with them from here on out when needed!”
