About: I have had cats and dogs all my life that have and are living great long and fulfilling lives. I treat animals well with great care and respect and even had the opportunity to nurse a baby squirrel back to health I’m working part-time and will be visiting your little family member and be able to give them one on one attention give them walks feed them and an occasional treat and play. I understand what it’s like to have a hyper lazy or in between dog so I can handle any situation and treat them as I would my own with love care and respect. I like to set a very comfortable environment for an animal I’m working with to get them to understand that I’m a friend and someone who is here to care so I like to set those boundaries and understanding of what makes them comfortable and listen to their body language. I like to build trust in my relationships with positive enforcement and trust.
“One of the nicest and professional sitters I’ve met. He was a blast to have over watching our cats! Kept us updated and sent pictures daily! Went above and beyond. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Jenna was great. Amazing with her communication. Always included pictures and added info and asked questions to make sure everything was how I would want it to be. She even brought some mail inside that had been left for me. Couldn’t ask for better service!”
“Absolute sweetheart and overall wonderful experience with her babysitting our sweet girl. She was beyond attentive to our cat and sent beautiful photos of our cat during the visits. We will be rebooking again if we need another sitter when we travel! Thank you again!! 🥰”
“My husband and I had a great experience with Clara! She kindly agreed to an introductory visit with our dog, Rikke, which we really appreciated as it was our first time using Rover and we weren’t sure how Rikke would respond. She was excellent with communication, sent photos for updates, and made sure Rikke was well cared for. We’ll definitely be booking with her again for future visits!”
“Susan went above and beyond to care for our pets and was incredibly accommodating after I accidentally booked the wrong times. We would/will book her again in a heartbeat!”
About: I love pets with all my heart. I have two mini golden doodles right now but I want to grow my pet family later. I enjoy spending quality time with my pets, playing with them, watching movies with them, they are basically by my side all the time and your pets will never be out of my sight and will for sure have an amazing time and be safe with me! I am pretty open with my schedule at the moment and I am free whenever you may need me to watch your dog. I’m currently in online school to become a CMA so it works well with me dog sitting. It all depends on what my client would want for the pet. In my opinion every pet needs a different type of care of other pets. My doodles are very outgoing they love to play until they get tired but they always need to be by someone because they have desperation anxiety. So it’s a matter of listening to the owner and getting a understanding of what there pet is like and needs
About: I have always been around dogs my entire life. I have always been in love with dogs and they are something I truly admire. I have been entrusted throughout my life of taking care of my friends and neighbors dogs. I have also worked with dogs from Yorkies all the way to Great Danes so size doesn’t bother me. During my experience I have worked with puppies all the way up to our senior pups making sure every dog is cared for and loved to the highest extent possible. I am currently a part time student, which means I can be around your pets most of the day due to my classes only taking at most 3 hours of my day so I can make sure your pets are loved and appreciated. Taking care of someone else’s pet is truly a privilege to be trusted enough to make sure someone’s baby is cared for and loved as much as you do. I will make sure to communicate and provide you with pictures and videos of your pets throughout and make sure to keep you updated with anything. I am a quick learner and will make to keep your stress levels low.
“Megan helped us out with our Golden Retriever puppy when we were in a jam on short notice. Her gentle personality was an immediate comfort to me. We got great updates each day of her drop in from the Rover app. Megan was very prompt with responding to any question or news we had. We appreciate her professionalism and kindness. Will definitely ask for her again!”
“Keshya did a great job taking care of our 2 cats while we were gone for 2 weeks. She was always on time and stayed the whole 30 minutes. We got photos for every visit which gave me peace of mind that our babies were okay so I didn’t worry about them while on vacation. I would use her again!”
About: First off, my name is Vanessa and I am a HUGE animal lover. I have been around dogs/cats all my life and I will always have a soft spot for them no matter what. I’m very passionate when it comes to dog and cat care because I want to make sure that they are taken care of. My special skills require being responsible, smart,caring, hardworking. I will create a healthy and fun environment for your pets while also making sure they are safe. I look forward to meeting with you as a potential client and of course, meeting your pets! :) I am again home full time so I can provide extra care and time for your pets while being able to give them all the love while they are away from their owners! I am very involved with my pets at home. My cat Luna is very independent and my dog Vader is very friendly and loves meeting new people/animals!
About: I have taken care of dogs ranging from 8 week old puppies to immobile senior dogs for decades— from administering shots to oral & topical meds, as well as regular therapeutic & “mind tiring” exercises, I’ve done it all. I’ve taken dogs to more specialist care facilities than myself or my family; I view our furry companions as family & treat them as such. I enjoy hiking, walking, biking, and cuddling with all fur-babies. A typical day in my house starts with a 2 mile jaunt - typically through some woods and half-off leash if my girl has her listening ears on (we’ve done extensive obedience and agility training), to end in a nice loop back home with breakfast, a cold “pupsicle” (Aldi FTW), and fresh water, followed by a good brush and nail trim if needed. Bath days are mini spa days— we move at the pace of the fur & always after a long walk. I’m currently a stay at home wife, so I have plenty of time to walk, bathe, feed, and love your fur-baby however many times their schedule requires. I enjoy being outside “exploring” new walking paths with my pup; I would love to give yours the same experience! I have a 7 year old lab/border collie mix named Olive, who is the sweetest gal who loves to make friends. If your fur-baby desires a friend on a walk, she’s always willing! I have a backyard that looks out to a creek down a ravine, with no neighboring doggos. If your fur-baby needs crated, I have a large kennel with a comfy bed for them.
About: I’ve watched pets of all kind an sizes. Pets have health issues? I can handle it. Anything you need I can handle. Contact me for your pets needs. I’m a stay at home mom so I have time for all your fur babies needs. I am always home threwout the day so being with your pet is no issue. I have a fenced in yard an two dogs who are great with any animal big or small. I am also available to visit your animals in your home threw out the day for potty breaks an play time.
About: After 19 years of living with large dogs, i've grown accustomed to their behaviors, living with German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Huskys, Great Pyrenees, and many others. I'm used to breeds that many people consider aggressive, though I'm also good with small dogs. Since I started pet sitting for neighbors I've been around chihuahuas, terriers, poodles, corgis and many more. I'd love the chance to meet your dogs regardless of how big or small they are! I work full time at a doctors office but I have a two hour break every day, from 12-2 so I've got time during work to hang out with you puppies! I get off at 12 of Fridays and don't work at all on the weekends, I would be available for your pets almost all day, available to stop by during breaks and spending evenings and early mornings with them! Due to my availability with work I am able to spend a lot of time at the house with the pets I'm watching. I spend several hours a day and home with the pets, spending time with them, playing outside and just hanging out together!
“Haley was amazing and able to help out my family at super short notice when we had an emergency. She was great with all the critters and it seemed like they really liked her too. Would definitely book with her again!”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fort Mitchell stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fort Mitchell choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Fort Mitchell with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
