“Kelti & Tanner are awesome! They are committed to accommodating you and your pet in all ways possible (incl. waking up to feed your dog at 5:30 AM/6 AM on weekends) If you're like me, then you are anxious whenever you have to leave your pet. While my big boy (Koda, a 78-pound yellow/white labrador retriever) stayed with with Kelti & Tanner, I knew I had nothing to worry about. That peace of mind is priceless.”
“Boba seemed to have a lot of fun! I appreciate the updates and for spending time with my pup while I was away. I will definitely be using Natalie in the future again!”

“Alycia & Scott were awesome! Montey came back a very happy pup who appeared to have had his own little holiday! Montey can be quite nervous but Alycia made sure he (and I!) felt comfortable before leaving! We are so grateful for the regular updates and Alycia really took the time to read my (rather long!) bio on Montey before we arrived so she was fully clued up! Montey found a great friend in Stella too and we wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!”

“Bella loves to stay at Sandy’s. Bella had plenty of room to run in Sandy’s yard and she loved playing in the little wading pool that Sandy provided on the hot days during Bella’s stay. We had daily updates on Bella through pictures and video. Sandy is an awesome dog watcher and Bella is looking forward to her next stay!”


“Caleigh was great at communication both before and during our dog’s stay with her and my dog looked happy and content throughout her stay. Would recommend and use Caleigh again!”

“Jenny was absolutely wonderful! Our first time using rover and she made us feel so confident that Stella was in great hands during our time away. She sent regular updates and photos every day, it was clear Stella trusted her very much!”


“Teah & Eric were amazing!!! This was the first time my dogs have stayed outside of their home. Teah & Eric were great at calming them and making them feel welcome. I will choose them every time if I have the chance!”

“Chrissy gets a 5-Star review from our family. Professional, Caring,Organized. She took care of my 3 dogs and took excellent care of them. I had multiple dogs on meds and she took care of all that. She sent me pictures and updates during my trip , so that I could see how they were doing. Chrissy made me feel so comfortable .From the first time we met her , I knew that my dogs would be in great hands. Will definitely be using her service again. 100percent recommend Chrissy!”

“Repeat customer :-) My dog loves it at Lauren & Wynn's. They're so good to him and very kindly let him take over their bed and make himself at home. Always have peace of mind when I need to leave him there for trips knowing he has a safe and comfortable place to be that he enjoys”

“What a great hostess. We knew Elfie was in good hands the moment we dropped her off. Appreciated the images while we were away. Plus, I made a mistake with my booking and Ainura showed me a lot of grace and understanding. Highly recommend.”

“Misty was quick to respond with the initial setup. While she had our dog, she would send daily updates and pictures. Pick up and drop off was easy. Most importantly, our pet was happy!”


“Moses had a great time staying with Paige and playing with her and her dog. Paige is very friendly and loves dogs, sent updates and pics, and dropoff and pickup were hassle-free. Highly recommended.”

“Cori and her family were a great experience for my little land shark puppy Riley-kept her busy and wore her out well! She slept all the way home and for hours that afternoon. Great to get her feedback during my retirement party so I didn’t have to worry about her. I will sure use her again as we need sitters.”

“I've used Tasia multiple times for Ava and this time she watched Willa. Ava and Willa are VERY different and she did an amazing job. She sends pictures and videos often and puts me at ease with how my babies are doing. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”

“Lauren was amazing with Luna and Annie. It was my first time booking with her but right from the beginning the “potatoes” felt like at home. Lauren made them feel very comfortable as soon as she met them. Throughout the stay she kept sending me pics of the pups just playing or sleeping on comfy blankets and it made me realize that they were truly being taken care off. For the most important thing is to have peace of mind knowing that my pups are being loved and cared for and that’s what Lauren did! Will definitely book with her again as I travel frequently for work!”

Cincinnati pet parents share their Rover experiences
Hanna was absolutely excellent while watching Indy last weekend. She provided frequent updates, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear Indy was well cared for the entire time. I could tell Indy was in great hands, and that meant everything to me. I would highly recommend Hanna and would gladly trust her again in the future!

Dion was wonderful with my little Maltese. He had never stayed over at another person's house before and is really anxious in new surroundings. Dion did two small sessions with him before our trip and we came home to a happy little dog. I cannot recommend him highly enough!
