About: I've taken care of many different dogs since I was a kid. Family friends, coworkers, and family have relied on me to feed, walk, and play with their dogs. I am a recent college graduate so I have a very open and flexible schedule. I am more than willing to adjust my plans to ensure your pets always have the care they need! I have cared for many different pets with all sorts of medical and behavioral needs. Whether your pets needs round the clock care or just a nice long walk while you're at work I will make sure they get what they need.

Monica was absolutely wonderful. She was very kind, always responsive, and kept us updated the entire time. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation because we had a great feeling about her from the very beginning. When we came back, the cats were happy — and that’s all we could ever ask for. She also sent us very cute pictures throughout the stay. Thank you so much, Monica!

About: I’ve spent the past eight years caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments from energetic puppies to large, strong dogs and older pets needing a gentler pace and I’m completely comfortable adapting to each one’s needs. Over time, I’ve learned how important consistency, patience, and understanding behavior are, whether that means handling high-energy walks, reinforcing routines, or helping a nervous dog feel at ease. What sets me apart is that I don’t just walk or check in and leave—I take the time to build trust, give them attention, and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every dog like my own, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. Pet care and pet sitting fit seamlessly into my schedule, allowing me to be flexible and dependable for both regular visits and last-minute needs. With more availability during the current season and upcoming summer, I’m able to offer consistent care, longer visits, and more time for walks, play, and attention. This flexibility benefits clients by ensuring their pets maintain a stable routine, get extra exercise, and receive reliable, attentive care while they’re away, especially during busy travel months. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pets. I always prioritize safety, follow your instructions closely, and keep you updated with messages and photos so you know your pet is happy and doing well. I’m respectful of your space, dependable, and treat your home and pets with the same care I give my own. When pet sitting, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep things stress-free. This typically includes feeding on schedule, fresh water, walks or litter box care, playtime or companionship, and any medications if needed. I also do quick check-ins around the home (like making sure everything is secure) and send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to keep everything as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away.

About: Hey Pet Parents! My name is Juliana and I hold a lot of significant experience in caring for pets! First off, I am a full time student at Ohio Northern University where I currently am apart of the Polar Paws program as a Secondary Trainer. This program allows college students to care for and train future service dogs. As a secondary trainer, I would work with various dogs on campus by training and sitting them while their primary caretaker is busy. Prior to university, I volunteered at the Van Wert County Humane Society where I worked with cats and dogs of all ages and all breeds. This consisted of walking the dogs, cleaning cages, cleaning litter boxes, playing with the animals, etc. Currently I am available anytime during the day and anytime of the week, until I update my availability when I need to go back to campus. I care for pets as if they are children. They need attention, respect, and when being babysat, a good time! That being said, in my own home they have access to their own food, water, play area, and have set potty breaks. In a clients home, the same will apply. Any alternative toys, medications, and food can be used most definitely if requested by client. Always a clean and tidy environment before and after.

About: I don't remember a time in my life when I wasn't surrounded with pets and animals. I grew up with three cats and a dog, had a few gerbals and hermit crabs, helped raise pythons, and get to enjoy dog kisses and and snuggles whenever I want from relative's pets. My grandparents live on a farm and love to help any of creatures us grandkids find. Animals are my passion! As a young entrepreneur trying to take my life and schedule into my own hands, Rover is the perfect way for pet owners to get thorough, compassionate care for their loved fur babies as well as help me attain more clients and doggo kisses for my already established pet sitting services. Looking forward to meeting and working with you!

Kelly has stayed with our pets a few times and we never worry when she’s watching them. She provides plenty of photos and updates and I appreciate how much she cares for our pets!

Kelly is a great person to start out. She was very communicative with us during the 2-night stayover. Probably, her best asset is that she pays close attention to detail which reduces her stress/your stress! She can focus on your pets and make certain that they are getting what they are used to having in their environment. Pets are just like people.....all different kinds of wants and needs. Kelly is well aware of this and strives to keep you and your pet stress free while you are away. This was our first time using rover.com. You can read the reviews, but at the end of the day....it is still a crap shoot. Extremely happy with our choice in Kelly. We will definitely use Kelly again! Thanks again Kelly!
