Keerie was very thorough. She sent pictures and gave great details on my pup! I could tell he had a great time! Can’t wait to use her again 😄.

Marie is fantastic! She promptly arrived on time. My dog loves her. She fed my fish,too. The interaction between them was all positive. Many posting of Truman were made, even videos. This gave me comfort and joy to see my boy happy while I'm away.

About: My husband and I have loved getting to dog sit for friends and family. When we heard about rover we got so excited! My husband and I are both runners and are happy to take the dogs we watch on runs/ walks and hikes. We also have enjoyed our new home which came with a fenced in yard. Giving the dogs freedom to run and play is so fun to watch! Every dog we watch feels right at home and we love to cuddle with each and every one. I am currently a stay at home mom for my 5, 4 and 2 year old and think your pup will fit in just right with our fun crew. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I am currently working part time, and I have plenty of time to work your pup into our daily routine. We have three kiddos at home so a routine is something our family thrives on. We have a beautiful fenced in backyard with lots of room to run and play. We also have a crate that can be utilized if need be. There is an extra room we use for dogs to be able to take a break if need be.

About: Hi! I’m Erin, an Ohio State graduate with over 10 years of pet sitting experience, specializing in dog/cat care. I offer both drop-in visits and overnight stays, with a big focus on making sure your pet stays in their normal routine. I’m confident handling different sizes, temperaments, and leash behaviors, and always prioritize safety and consistency. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I bring. I’m very detail-oriented and tuned in to behavior, so I pick up quickly on what makes each dog comfortable. I keep communication clear and consistent with updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I also keep things clean, calm, and organized in your home during visits or overnight stays. I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have two cats of my own, so I truly understand the trust that goes into leaving your pet with someone. With years of building my long term clientele, I can assure you your pets will be treated like my own everytime! My goal is to make your dog or cat feel secure, cared for, and as close to their normal routine as possible while you’re away. If you’re looking for someone reliable who goes beyond the basics, I’d love to connect and meet your pets:) I have dedicated my days and weekends to providing loving care for animals! I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule that allows me to make pet sitting a priority in my day to day life. Most of my experience has been pet sitting in the owners home or drop ins! I provide overnight services as well. Since I have 2 cats of my own, I would allow dogs to stay at my home if they have experience being around cats. I am dedicated to making each animal feel as comfortable as possible and making sure they feel loved while you are away.

About: I foster for our local pet rescue and do well socializing pups and adult dogs who are child friendly. Avid walker with clean, comfortable home. I work from home daily so unless I’m at a client visit, you can expect 24/7 care. Can help over nights and weekends for traveling. I have a lead in the back yard for potty breaks, access to local metro park for long walks, stair gates and a pen for crating.

About: Since I was young, I’ve always had a pet. After college I finally got a pet of my own and they’ve just multiplied over the years! Dogs are my specialty - I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to friends and family & I’ve trained both of my dogs since they were puppies. I’d say what sets me apart from others is that I have plenty of time in the afternoons (and any time during the weekend) to take care of your pup because my job ends early in the day unlike a 9-5 job. I have years of experience under my belt and I just really love animals. Always have and always will! As a teacher, I am always home early on the weekdays so I’ll have plenty of time every afternoon to play with & walk your dog! I am available any time on the weekends and I can board Fri-Sun. My husband and I have a big fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company! We are firm believers in lots of walks, lots of playtime, and positive reinforcement. If needed, we can provide a crate as a safe space for your dog to lounge in. Our dogs are our children and we will treat your dog with the same love as we treat our own :)

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish, and I treat every pet like part of the family. I'm attentive to each animal’s unique needs and have a calm, gentle approach—whether it’s playing with an energetic pup or giving extra care to a senior pet. I’m also reliable, patient, and happy to follow any special routines or instructions to help your pet feel safe and loved. I teach ESL online, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to work from anywhere. That means I can stay at your home and be present throughout the day to care for your pet—whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m able to build my routine around your pet’s needs. I offer in-home pet sitting, which means I can stay at your home to provide consistent care and companionship while you’re away. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their own familiar environment.

About: Hello! My name is Amanda Engel. I am a trusted, experienced pet care professional who is very passionate about dogs! -Experience: I am a graduate of the Medina County Career Center's two year Animal Care program in which I worked in a Doggy Daycare, grooming salon, veterinary lab, and a pet shop as a part of the program. I have volunteered at the Humane Society for many years and currently volunteer for a local pet rescue. I have fostered dogs (both puppies and adults), and with a little patience and love, have helped many fearful dogs recover, learn to trust again, and become adoptable. I’ve always been told that dogs are drawn to me (probably because they can sense that I love them so much!). -Services: Regarding my services, I have years of experience in providing a variety of pet care services (drop-in care, dog walking, and overnight care). I have provided care for dogs anywhere from 5 pounds to 100 pounds! I am well rounded when it comes to experience with different breeds and always accommodate to the individual needs of each dog. I have uploaded lots of photos of my time spent with with my beloved fur friends! Feel free to check them out! (Click on my photo and then “Gallery”). Regarding my schedule, I currently have availability for your pet and am accepting new clients. I look forward to getting to know your pet and spending time with him / her! Since the comfort and safety of your pet is my #1 priority, I take the following steps to ensure a safe and healthy environment: - Monitoring weather conditions and limiting time outdoors in excess heat -Always keeping dogs on a leash when outdoors -Inquiring about any medical history or needs and adhering to any medication schedules -Taking a Canine First Aid & CPR course periodically to maintain safety skills

About: Life long animal lover, I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, ducks, fresh water aquariums and hamsters. It delights me to give other pet owners peace of mind while they are away from their furry, feathery or even scaley family members by providing care, companionship and security. I offer customized pricing, message me to select a service level that best suits your needs. Pet care is my main schedule priority, I also work as a wellness counselor part time but generally have a lot flexibility in my schedule as I mainly operate remotely for that and I am happy to work with you and your furbabies schedule needs. I do not currently offer care within my own home due to limited space but I am very happy to care for your pets within your own home or by taking them to a trail or park where they can be their happiest and most comfortable. It's important to me to ensure animals stick to their routines to ensure the least amount of stress while owners are away so the more detailed care instructions provided the better, I'm not afraid to adust my personal schedule to best fit the needs of any pet!

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud dog parent to my 7-year-old lab/german shepherd/golden retriever mix, Sophie. With over 10 years of pet sitting for friends, family, and coworkers, I’ve built a reputation for being responsible and attentive. I work full-time in marketing and own my home, that includes a fenced-in backyard for plenty of playtime. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have family members and friends who work in veterinary care, so I’m well-equipped to handle any situation that arises. My heart is big for all animals, and I’ve even helped reunite lost pets with their families on more than one occasions. From kittens and puppies to seniors, I can’t wait to care for your furry companions! I’m currently working full time, but I work 5 minutes from my house and am available to check on pets throughout the day when in my care. Additionally, my fiancé works from home, so there will almost always be a responsible adult in the home to look after fur babies. The company I work for allows us to work flexible schedules and we are able to adjust our in/out time for our work days whenever needed. I have a fenced in back yard and currently have one pet in my home, Sophie. Sophie has grown up living with other dogs in our home (up until a few years ago), since she was a puppy! Shes very friendly and patient with other dogs usually, big or small, but a very high energy level dog might not be a good fit for our home. Sophie is great with seniors and medium to low energy dog/puppies. She is great about knowing when another animal wants to play or if they’d rather have their space. There is plenty of space to crate your animals in my house as well. I have a consistent feeding/walking/medication routine with Sophie, and will provide your pets with a reliable routine as well to help them feel as little of a disturbance to their regular schedule as possible. I’m an attentive person and will send you updates and photos of your fur babies often. There is an emergency vet clinic less than 6 miles away from my house in case of any emergencies.

I had a great experience with Emily walking my dog, Rocket! She let me know when she arrived, sent me photos, and provided a detailed summary of how the walk went. Because the conditions near my house meant Rocket could not walk a long distance, Emily spent the remainder of the time allotted for the walk working on some command training - she was very thoughtful in asking me beforehand to confirm what commands I was working on with Rocket. I'll be happy to book with Emily again!

About: I love animals & enjoy tending to their needs. Whether I have to trick them to take meds, walk or play fetch, I love it. I usually clean houses in the mornings, but I always make time for pets! I offer drop in visits, play time, feedings, & overnight stays. I prefer to watch pets at their home so they feel comfortable & don’t have to endure too many changes. They’ll be right at home.
