“Jennifer was wonderful! She took such good care of my pets, and she sent me pics and updates on them while I was gone. She let them snuggle with her- even my big guy!! She also washed all the bedding and dishes before she left on the last day. I’ll definitely have her take care of my pets again!”
“Emily was a great sitter! She house sat for us over the holiday weekend and I came home to a very happy dog :) She was great with communication (and left the house very clean!) would definitely work with her again and recommend. Thank you!”
“Sheila was professional and communicative. She understood some of the behavioral challenges we've had either our new rescue pup and reported that the stay went seamlessly. She sent picture updates and provided good feedback. We would use her again and recommend her.”
“Lucas was great sitting our three pups at home. He made certain they went out their normal ~4 times a day, he gave them their meds & food as directed, and communicated well with us during the entire stay. We greatly appreciate his time with them :-) and would book additional stays with him as they come up.”
“Katie was great taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She showed up when she said she would, spent some quality time with him, and sent plenty of pictures and status updates. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“Courtney did great taking care of my elderly Pugs and making sure they got their meds. She was eager to learn how to manage my paralyzed dog which was great and hard to find!”
“Ariel was fantastic! Couldn’t say anything better. We’ve used multiple people from Rover to watch our pups and she’s outshined all of them. We came home to an even cleaner house than what we left, happy dogs, and even Christmas music left on for them when nobody was home.”
“Sean took wonderful care of my dog, Stassi, and my home! I was out of the country for 3 weeks and he stayed at my home the whole time. He was very thorough in gathering information about my home and Stassi before I left and asked questions I didn't even think of. His communication was professional and consistent. He sent me messages regularly about what was going on at home and with Stassi and even sent several pictures. My home was clean and as I left it. Most importantly he cared for Stassi as his own. I couldn't ask for a better dog sitter! Thank you Sean!”
“Taylor is an amazing dog sitter. She has stayed with our dog, Spencer, twice since he was a puppy. She always communicates well and sends pics. She is so good with Spencer, and Spencer loves her!”
“Pamela was awesome! Sent lots of pics of our babies and spent tons of quality time with them!!!! Great communication. Will definitely reach out to her the next time we need a house/pet sitter!!!!”
“Jared was great with our two crazy puppies and all of our other animals. Sent lots of pictures, I could tell the dogs loved him. Gave us peace of mind during our trip. He also had a great doughnut recommendation for our destination!”
About: Before moving to Cincinnati, I worked in many different pet care settings. I worked for a dog walking/sitting company in Nashville known as Preferred Pets, worked as a bather at the Paw Pad in Canton, worked for Pet Valu when I was in college at Kent State, and as a local dog walker in my neighborhood growing up. I’m very dedicated to the wellbeing of any animal I have the privilege of working with and look forward to seeing each and every pet. Every animal gets guaranteed love, attention, exercise, and play when I’m with them. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, blind dogs, aggressive dogs, shy dogs, excited dogs, and every kind in between. No matter the size, age, temperament, or breed, I always dedicate my entire self to the animals under my care. I work full time 7p-5p M-F so if you need a night time or weekend walker, I’m the one for your pet! I’m always available throughout the nights as well. Throughout my professional experience with dogs I have always put their safety first. This includes knowing the major signs of stress dogs display, and recognizing quick temperament changes. I also have been taught proper ways to walk certain dogs depending on how much of a puller they are!
“Lauren was so great housesitting with our cat and elderly dog over the weekend. She communicated well the whole time and left the house in great shape. Thanks for taking such good care of our ladies!”
About: I care for every pet like they’re my own—because I know they’re not just pets, they’re family. I take the time to understand each animal’s personality, needs, and routine so they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s extra playtime, slow walks for older pups, or quiet cuddles on the couch, I’m all in. I also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you’re never left wondering how your fur baby’s doing. As a freelance photographer, I have a super flexible schedule, which means I can easily plan my day around your pet’s needs. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening snuggles, I’ve got the time—and the heart—for it. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and caring for pets brings balance and joy to my day. Your pet will always have my full attention, without any rush or distractions. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I treat it like my own—with respect, cleanliness, and care. I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine to keep things comfortable and stress-free, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or just quiet companionship. I’m very mindful of your space and make sure everything stays tidy and your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. You’ll get plenty of updates, so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in good hands.

Ethan P.
“If there is anyone that I would trust with my dog, it would be Ethan. Ethan has had multiple dogs growing up and knows how important these animals can be to the people that own them. Ethan doesn’t see dogs as simply pets, he views them as a part of the family. He also worked at a pet store for a few years, due to his love for dogs, and even after he left, he continued working as an assistant for a dog groomer. With that being said, Ethan has had a lot of experience taking care of dogs and making sure they feel safe and happy. Not only does Ethan love and have experience with dogs, he’s also just a great worker. Responsible, friendly and diligent are all words that I would use to describe him. Ethan is the type of person that will take any job given to him and complete it to the best of his ability. All in all, Ethan is a great person and one of the biggest dog lovers that I know. Any dog in his care is sure to be well taken care of, and this is why I believe that he is more than capable of being an outstanding dog sitter.”
