We were very skeptical about using the app and having someone stay at our house. Our dogs don’t do well at kennels and we tried Rover. Upon our first meeting with Christina, we felt very comfortable with her. She was so good meeting our pups that they fell in love with her immediately. She sent us photos of them daily and took them on multiple walks. We now know we can go on a vacation and hire Christina again. When we got home, the pups looked disappointed it was us getting home and not Christina. She is a true gem and we will be using her services again as well as sharing our experiences with others about Rover and Christina. Thank you again Christina!

Devaney was great! My dog Junie takes a little extra time to warm up to people- Devaney was patient, allowing Junie to slowly build comfort. Devaney was communicative, sending pictures throughout the weekend, and left my house very clean! Would definitely recommend

Octavia took such good care of our 3 pups while my family and I were out of the country. She contacted me with any questions, sent lots of pics/updates, and the house was clean and tidy when we returned. I highly recommend Octavia!

About: With experience in both cat and dog sitting, I’ve cared for pets of family, friends, and neighbors, providing attentive and reliable care. My experience includes overnight stays and routine check-ins, ensuring pets receive the attention and comfort they need while their owners are away. My passion for animals shines through in my dedicated and compassionate approach to pet sitting. Being a college student, I fit pet care into my routine with evening care and playtime, ensuring pets get the attention and care they need. I do not currently have pets in my current home. I care for pets in other ways, such as drop-ins and pet walking. Thank you!

Cindi did a wonderful job caring for my animal. She provides lots of pictures and videos on how my pet was doing throughout the stay. We had one day where it was hard to get ahold of but when I was able to she was extremely responsive to support my pet. I would recommend her for other owners to book her for a sit. You can tell she loves animals and will care for yours.

Lee was a fantastic caretaker for our 2 Labradors. One of our dogs is very shy and Lee took the time to connect with her. She was very dependable and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing. She stayed in our home and when we returned, Lee had taken the time to tidy up before we returned with some light cleaning. I would highly recommend Lee.

About: Hello! My name is Ella and I’m 23 years old and I am a student at the Cleveland institute of music studying opera. Singing and animals are my two greatest passions in life! I grew up with a Bichon who is now 12 years old and living with my mom in Columbus Ohio. Taking care of him throughout my life has been one of my greatest blessings and I’ve had the joy of extending my love for him to dozens of dogs and cats across the Cleveland area over the past 6 years! I follow a vegan diet and am passionate about the color yellow and I adore movies (especially horror!). All my friends love meeting and playing with any animals I care for (with pet parent permission of course!) so no matter what, I (or me AND my friends) will give your baby(s) a most fun and special time! I am a graduate student at the Cleveland institute of music and within my schedule have breaks and long blocks of time where I can go to hangout with, check in on, walk, and feed pets :) I’m almost always available to spend the night and take care of them in the morning before setting off for my day. The longest I would need to leave a dog alone would be 5-6 at most, but that would be rare. Most often, it would be 3-4 hours or less :) I always appreciate when pet parents create a list for me of things I need to know so I can continue to reference it throughout my time caring for their pet until I get to know the dog super well! I am careful to keep dangerous or toxic things off floors and out of reach, I ensure that small dogs have easy access to higher couches or beds (as long as pet parents allow this), I clean and refill their water bowl every morning and wash their food bowls. I will give your dog lots of love and cuddles and pets and attention and time outside and exercise and plenty of treats!

About: Ever since I was born, there’s always been a pet in the house. I grew up with cats, dogs, even fish, frogs, and rats! I have been hired to take care of dogs, cats, and chickens a handful of times, and have taken care of my loved ones’ dogs and cats on many more occasions. I am trustworthy and reliable with a flexible schedule, and always ready to treat your creature with the utmost care and affection! I’m a freelance performance artist, and can likely make your schedule work! I am available for visits at all times of the day, including overnight. Whether it’s swinging by for a walk or staying overnight, I’m there! I am attentive to the needs of your pet including bathroom, grooming, exercise, playing, resting, and cleaning up after them. I will make sure I understand from you exactly what your pet needs and follow your/their schedule, while meeting any other needs that may arise during my visit!

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 10, from working on a farm to just having dogs of my own. I even have experience with three legged dogs, as I owned one of my own! I am super excited to meet you and your fur babies! I promise they will be in great hands of a lady who is enthusiastic, outgoing, and is ready to give endless of love and most likely spoil them! I enjoy the outdoors and am constantly walking and enjoy nature. I have experience with taking care of puppies, to senior dogs. I have administered medicine as well, that be pills in a piece of cheese or having to put it in their food. I am currently waiting to start my new job, I also have a dog of my own and have plenty of time to provide walks, play time and potty breaks. I have plenty of time to do the same with your pups! I am available for onboarding pretty freely throughout the week, and most weekends. I have pups to keep your pup company, if your pup is better off without any other fur friends, I am able to provide a comfortable stay without my baby! I have a crate available if needed that is very spacious and will be comfortable and welcoming with blankets and toys.

About: I have cared for dogs since I was 8, and I have owned a dog since I was 5. I have successfully potty-trained a puppy. I enjoy being outside and walking, so I'd love to help out in any way, whether by helping them get their energy out or by hanging out with them. I work part-time and have free time between 10 am and 2 pm to take care of your fur babies. I usually use that time to hit the gym or study in the library, but I'm flexible. I can come to your fur baby and transport them to the park or wherever is needed. I can dog-sit for a few hours or a weekend and take them for walks.

If you're like us, we look for care providers with multiple reviews so we have a better idea of who we're hiring. But everyone needs to start somewhere, and this time we decided to give someone a chance who hadn't received reviews yet; boy did we luck out. Jaina did a fantastic job looking after our 80 pound loverboy, Luca. She stayed in our home while we were away five days, and both he--and our home--were well taken care of. He even got a daily walk (in winter, no less!). Jaina is who you want in a sitter: responsive, reliable and kind. She provided daily updates and photos of our dog, too. We would hire her again, and suggest you do too before people catch on and her rates go up.

About: With over 3 years of experience living with dogs and cats, I treat every pet like family. I offer a calm, trustworthy presence that keeps tails wagging. I’m a student so I’m usually studying at home with my Havanese! I maintain a feeding, grooming, exercise, and mental enrichment routine with my dog. I feed my dog 2x a day and walk her for 30 minutes in the morning. Since she’s crate trained, she enjoys lounging around her bed while I work. I can offer similar services but just let me know what you’re looking for.

Jenna did an absolutely great job petsitting our dog and four cats for two weeks. All the pets were happy and healthy upon our return and the house was well taken care of - even the plants and the birdfeeder in the backyard. She sent us daily reports with photos, which was very reassuring, being far away from home.
