“Awesome sitter for our dogs first time home overnight without us and they did well all three days! She followed instructions and gave us updates as asked/needed. We would use her again.”

“I am so thankful to have had Kristi house sit and care for my fur babies, she kept them engaged the whole time to the point where my son's and I were joking how the dogs are going to want to live with Kristi. She not only played with them, worked on tricks with them but also loved on them and we received daily pictures and updates. She even cleaned!!!! She gardened and planted plants for me. All things that needed my attention and did not get until Kristi showed up. She even found and picked up glass that was in my backyard that the dirt had been throwing up from previous owners. She went WAY ABOVE AND BEYOND!!! She made me feel safe and comfortable that everything was and would be OK. We LOVE YOU KRISTY ?”

“Paige was an outstanding sitter for Princess, and a very separation anxiety, Panache. She made sure that his food was upstairs under my bed, so that he could access it. It does take her awhile to answer texts from me, but her care of my pets and home was excellent.”

Roslyn S.

“Cara did a great job with three larger dogs. Two lap Labs and an old boxer mix. Our concern was how the old boxer would get along with her. Cola immediately warmed up and Cara gave us regular updates through photos. I'd recommend her.”

“Cindy was great with my Calvin! He was happy and well taken care of the couple days I was gone and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future when I leave town.”

About: I have taken care of family pets since I was young. As I grew older, I adopted my own pets and have volunteered in animal shelters as well. I have always had dogs and cats in my life and it has grown to guinea pigs and a bearded dragon. I'm able to give baths, do walks, and bathroom breaks and provide ample amounts of play time. I am available for Labor Day weekend! I am also a full time stay at home mother so currently all of my days and times of the week are free and open, even weekends. I let all of my animals on my furniture if they want in my home. They all have their special homes and spots where they can be in peace until they come out with the rest of the family. My home is kept clear of dangerous items, tiny small toys for example that pets might eat.

“Very sweet girl and was wonderful with Maggie. So happy I took a chance with this app.”

Gina H.

“Cyndi is amazing! I have a dog aggressive/ reactive dog and she was not hesitant to house sit with her! She sends pictures of your pup with updates and has amazing communication and courtesy! My boyfriend and I are new to the area and don’t have family or many friends here, but someone suggested Rover to us and I am so thankful I found Cyndi. My dog loves her, and she will forever have the best of friends with Cyndi and her sweet amazing daughter!:)”

Bella S.

“Jacinda was great with our pups and sent us a ton of photos and videos while we were away! We’d definitely use her again as a house sitter!”

About: Hello families! My name is Tanner. I am currently majoring in psychology at Youngstown State University. I graduated from Ursuline High School in 2022. I have much experience pet sitting for many neighbors and different families. I have experience administering medications to different pets and can follow schedules well. I can provide references and background clearances upon request. I am available for drop in visits and overnight stays for pets that might need a little extra love! Feel free to reach out with any questions! I am looking to be a pet sitter full time or drop ins Saturdays and Sundays. I am flexible with my schedule so we can work out any times needed I make sure they get lots of love, pets, and plenty of exercise or playtime but ultimately whatever the dog needs is what I will stick with.

About: Hi, I’m Tate a lifelong animal lover with experience as unique as the pets I care for! I grew up surrounded by animals—horses, dogs, geese, and barn cats—and I’ve been a trusted sitter for everything from puppies to parrots, bottle babies to bearded dragons. I have a special heart for pets with extra needs, including those with anxiety, reactivity, or medical concerns. I’m experienced with insulin administration, glucose monitoring, and special meal prep—your pet’s routine is safe with me. While my husband was serving in the Air Force, I spent four years caring for military families’ pets near Dyess AFB while completing my college degree. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, chickens, exotics—you name it, I’ve probably cuddled it! I genuinely feel like I speak their language. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or needs a little extra TLC, I’ll meet them where they’re at—with love, patience, and lots of care. Pet care isn’t just something I fit into my routine—it’s something my routine feels incomplete without. After earning my degree in graphic design and moving across the country, I had to say goodbye to the fur family I sat for in Texas. That shift made me realize just how much joy and purpose pet sitting brought to my everyday life. These days, I work from home on flexible, self-paced art and design projects, which means I have the freedom to take breaks, make visits, and give pets the attention they deserve—whether it’s a midday walk, medication, or just some much-needed love. Caring for animals brings balance and warmth to my day, and I genuinely look forward to every tail wag, meow, chirp, or cuddle. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, my top priority is maintaining their usual routine and environment to minimize stress and keep them feeling safe and secure. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s playtime outside, quiet companionship, or extra TLC for pets who are shy or reactive. My approach is experience-focused—I’m not just there to check a box, but to make sure your pets are truly cared for and comforted while you’re away. I also believe in leaving your home as tidy (or better!) than you left it. I often vacuum or sweep, take out the trash, bring in mail, and keep up with litter boxes, enclosures, and yard clean-up. My goal is to provide total peace of mind—both for your pets and for you.

About: I don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t taking care of animals! Whether it be while growing up or starting to dogsit/walk in high school, there was never a time a fur baby wasn’t relying on me. And I wouldn’t have it any other way! I have a flexible schedule which allows me to help out with my friends and families animals, as well as volunteer for local animal shelters. I have experience with dogs of all ages and levels of care. I know how difficult it can be to trust someone with your pet (I have used Rover myself when I go out of town) so I assure you I will provide the kind of care and attention to your pet that I would want given to my own! :) I’m currently working part time. My job offers flexible hours, so I have the opportunity to accommodate whatever schedule you and your pet require. :) I will happily go over what your pets routine is and abide by whatever you’re most comfortable with! If your dog is used to being walked at certain times, crated, etc. The well being and safety of your animal is my upmost concern so whatever you need me to do to guarantee that, is what I’ll do!

About: I've helped care for and train all sorts of animals, from indoor pets to farm animals, my entire life, and I love it! I like to make sure furry friends feel safe and enjoy their time with me, whether that means a running around to get some energy out or a relaxing rub. It would be my delight to tailor my care to your desires and your fur-baby's needs so everyone has a great experience and you can enjoy a worry-free trip. **If I am unavailable for one day out of your multiday booking, I may be able to adjust things and am open to bring contacted about it. I'm currently a medical student, so I am mostly free in the early morning, late afternoon, and evening. However, I have many days and weeks when my I am available at different times. Let's discuss your precise needs and my availability to meet them! I believe in following the house rules, spoiling the animals if that's the preference and reinforcing rules they need to abide by (e.g., not being allowed on furniture). I will be vigilant to keep your fur-baby out of trouble while making sure they get the exercise or socialization they need during my visit!

“Haley is amazing! The communication before and during our stay was perfect. She was so patient and kind with our anxious girls. She sent many pictures, videos, and updates throughout the stay. We felt very comfortable and happy knowing they were safe with her, and we returned to very happy and loved puppies.”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. I can not remember a time in my life that I didn't have a furry friend (or 2) I just really enjoy having them around. Learning their personalities is a challenge sometimes but its a challenge I enjoy. I have experience in most breeds as well. I understand that some dogs need more/less then others. I will follow your friends needs, and your instructions. I am currently a stay at home mom so I can work my schedule around your furry friend and your needs. I am only gone a short time to take my daughter to and from school during the school year. I live in home with a pretty decent sized backyard. I also have 2 huskies of my own who love to have new friends over. If for some reason they do not get along (because just like humans, that can happen) your furry friend will come first and my dogs will go ahead and spend time in their crates. I can also crate your friend if that is what you would like. I have no problem leaving my sliding door open for the dogs to go in and out on their own. I enjoy sitting outside and playing with my dogs, as well as yours. There is also a dog park not too far from me that I would take your friend to if that is something that you would like for me to do. I understand that sometimes dogs need a break from each other as well. They are definitely furry humans when it comes to their needs/wants/feelings. If your friend has a special diet, feeding time, or even a potty schedule I will follow that as well.

About: I have a flexible schedule and work per diem in healthcare, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and love. I offer regular walks, playtime, and lots of affection to make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away. During our time together, I can also teach basic tricks like sit, paw, roll over, and lay down—keeping things fun and mentally stimulating. Pets are welcome to relax wherever they feel most comfortable, including the couches and beds. My home is smoke-free, peaceful, and full of love. I truly go the extra mile to make every pet feel like part of the family. Pet care is one of the most meaningful and fulfilling parts of my week. I work per diem in healthcare, which means I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time to caring for animals. I structure my week around the needs of the pets I’m caring for—whether that means morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or overnight stays. Making sure pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily routine. When pets are in my care, their comfort and safety come first. I create a calm, clean, and smoke-free environment where pets are free to relax, snuggle, and feel right at home. I take time to get to know their routines, preferences, and energy levels—whether they love to play or prefer quiet companionship. In my home, pets are allowed on furniture and beds if that’s what they’re used to, and I follow any feeding, medication, or behavior routines closely. In a client’s home, I always treat the space with respect and care, keeping pets on their usual schedule to reduce stress while you’re away. I believe in clear communication and always send updates, photos, and messages so you feel connected and reassured.

About: I have had pets my entire life, so I know exactly what it’s like to take care of them. I have also taken care of cats, dogs, parrots, bunnies, fish, and turtles! Your pets care means a lot to me. I have also dealt with older animals and given pets medication as well. I have two dogs and two cats, so pet care means a lot to me. I am very familiar with how to properly take care of animals. When it comes to taking care of pets, I make sure even during my busy schedules to give them as much love as possible. I always make sure I feed animals the exact amount, and when they are scheduled to get fed. I also make sure to follow every accommodation owners set in place for me to follow.
