House Sitting College Hill

“Andrea did an amazing job watching our 4 month old blue heeler pup 'Tillie' and our low maintenance dude cat 'Pickles'. She was at our home for almost 12 hours and kept the pup from getting into trouble. She's still in that biting/chewing stage and loves electrical cords. Andrea sent me photos of the pets throughout the day and I was extremely assured that we had the right person to watch them both. Thank you Andrea! I'm looking forward to the next time!”

“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!”

“Allison is amazing! I had Allison housesit with my dog for several days when I was out of town, My dog is a rescue and it takes her some time to warm up to others and Allison was great with her! Allison shared photos, videos and notes to keep me informed and my dog was a very happy pup when I returned home. If you need someone you can trust with your pet while you're away, book Allison!”

“Kristin took such great care of my dog Bupo! She is very communicative, responsible, friendly, and, of course, great with dogs. Kristin left my apartment in great shape after housesitting, which was very appreciated. Will definitely book 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!”

About: Hello! I’m excited to meet your furry babies! I’ve had the joy of rescuing 15 dogs and 10 cats throughout my life. My family has banned me from volunteering at the shelter after I foster failed our three rescue pitties, all from Cincinnati Animal CARE. Currently, my home includes our three dogs, two cats, and a bearded dragon. My consulting business (nonprofit leadership and management) allows me to work from home and enjoy a flexible schedule. As a new empty nester, I have free time that I'd love to fill caring for your babies. I have experience caring for pets of all ages— from playful puppies and kittens to loving seniors. I can assist with everything from potty training and medication administration to wound care. As a responsible professional and avid pet lover, I promise to treat your pets as if they were my own! 🐶🐱 I work from home and am available 24/7 to care for your pets. With dogs of our own, our routine is perfectly set up for all potty, feeding, playing, and sleeping needs. In our house, pets reign supreme! I have a fenced yard and three friendly and playful dogs who will keep your pup company. I'm happiest when I have a dog snuggling next to me on the couch or a cat on my lap, and your pets will be well loved.

“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.”

“This was our first time with Nikka watching our dog in our home but definitely won’t be the last. She was amazing! She was very responsive, kept us updated on all that was happening, and sent lots of photos. We came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Thank you Nikka!”

“Alecia is amazing. She is great with my kitties, attentive to detail, and communicates about what is going on with them. She stayed here for four days, and I came back to a home that was as clean as when I left it. Thank you, Alecia! I was lucky to find her through Rover and hope she can help next time I travel!”

“Crystal is amazing! She stayed at my house and watched my labradoodle for three nights while I was out of town. She is very responsible and left my fur baby and my home in perfect condition!”

“Kayla was AMAZING. We reached out looking for a sitter last minute and she said "how could I not!". So friendly and happy and when we met in person you could just tell how truly kind and loving she is to pets. Will absolutely reach out again in the future!”

About: I have always owned dogs and one is medium sized and one is small. I got a five month old puppy when I was 14 and trained her fully. I dog sit for family and friends and want to expand and do more dog sitting! I love cuddling with dogs, taking them for walks, and playing with them. I adore dogs so much that I did a research presentation in a public speaking class about different dog breeds and their traits! In the summer, I am a part time nanny for a wonderful family. As of right now, I am available on Monday mornings and early afternoons, Friday afternoons and nights, and all day Saturdays and Sundays. During the school year, I am away at college as a nursing student but come home for a few days monthly. I am fully capable of giving your dog walks, clean up their mess, give medication, crate them, etc., genuinely anything that is important to you! I will give so many belly rubs and cuddles as well.

“Levi was great! My dog, Bella seemed to warm up to him immediately during our meet and greet which helped ease my anxiety as I was leaving the country for 10 days! He was great with communication and I will definitely use Levi again!”

Amy D.

“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 :)”

“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!”

Bobbie M.

“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!”

About: I am a dog owner myself, having dogs throughout my whole life. I love any and all dogs and would love an opportunity to meet yours. I’ve had past experience watching both dogs and cats, where I’ve stayed overnight, fed, walked, and cared for pets in various ways. I also have reliable transportation and am willing to accommodate any needs necessary. I am eager to learn anything that will help your pet feel safer and happier while caring for them! I’m free throughout most days this summer, so my attention can be fully on your pets! Other than occasional trips/errands out, I can stay as long as you need with your fur babies! I’m very comfortable doing anything you need within your home for your pets! I can crate if needed, and I love walking if that’s something you’d like your pet to experience.

“Lux has been a great (repeat) dog sitter for our 3 dogs. Staying in our home was so convenient. Our dogs were well taken care of and I felt very comfortable with all the communication received. He has gotten to know our dogs really well and it shows. We will definitely be having him help us again when we go out of town! THANK YOU!”

About: I was blessed to have grown up around a multitude of pets! I have had an animals in the my house since I was three years old - 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 2 birds! I took care of my first dog, besides my own, starting when I was 11 years old for a neighbor and have done it consistently since. I have experience with young and old animals, including ones with daily medications. I'm a senior in college so I have some flexibility throughout the week! I can attend to your furry friends throughout the day and into the evening. I work to ensure that your pets are comfortable within their environment through low-energy introductions to their spaces. I am a Cincinnati-native, and have all the best parks to go for walks in my back pocket. I am comfortable enforcing rules and expectations pertaining to things like furniture use, locking entrances, and crating.

“Emma was great! She’s a good communicator and pays close attention to detail. Most importantly, my dogs loved her! I felt so comfortable leaving my babies in her care and when I came back they were so relaxed and happy! I will absolutely be contacting her in the future to care for my dogs!”
