“Bernajah it's great! She provided a lot of updates and photos while taking care of my puppy. She is really sweet and very thoughtful! We will continue to work with her and we highly recommend her.”
“Carissa was amazing while taking care of my cat, Chestnut, for a couple of weeks while I was away. She was incredibly responsible and provided thoughtful updates with lots of great pictures, which made it so much easier to be apart from my little cat. I’d absolutely recommend Carissa to anyone looking for a sitter :)”
“He was fantastic with both my little guys. He did everything as asked, is very patient and calm is a great person overall and as someone to watch your pets. I highly recommend him and would love to hire him again! Keep up the good work William! 11/10 from me!”
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
“Maria was amazing. We found her last minute and we’re so happy we did. She’s newer to Rover but definitely has experience with animals. We thought she was so professional and sent the most amazing updates!”
About: I dog sit for every dog shape or size has never been an issue here in our household. I love what I do, and I send photos as well to give clients more reassurance that their animals are being well treated and not abused. I love to foster dogs from Paws Humane Society as well to give them a home until they find their forever home. Every Pet gets one on one interaction, lots of snuggles, and lots of attention. I know how important it is to feel like at ease knowing your pet is in great hands. I currently have 3 fur babies myself. I am also a stay-at-home mom myself. my babies are everything they get treated like my own kids, they get lots of attention and some would even say I have them spoiled. I have a fenced in yard. I also have extra doggy crates; I do drop ins for vacations, or even if you just need help. I feed the pets and take them outside for potty breaks as well as play time. each pet is different some have set schedules that I follow as well. I love gaining the trust in clients to where they always come back.
“Keshya saved the day for our boys! She was attentive to our needs for the boys and ensures clear communication both before and during watching the boys. While we won't get a chance to use her again (PCS) I'd highly recommend her to anyone needing a reliable sitter you can not worry about.”
“Lindsay is the most caring provider! Our Max loved her so much. It meant so much to us to have a meet and greet before we left and then to get so many videos and photos. I also appreciated the level of care and communication she put into everything she does. Will definitely rebook Lindsay!”
About: we have taken care of pets since childhood :) we have lots of experience with pets from A-to-Z and we provide photo and videos, along with additional detailed text updates. We treat others as family, we love to spoil others, and we also provide training if needed with positive reinforcement. We also not only provide pet sitting but plant sitting as well, we are huge into gardening and we can give lots of care information and advice on any plant that you have/want. We’re always here and are happy to help, we always respond fast especially when you need us, and we love to serve others because we love making people happy <3 We both have full time availability, so we are able to provide every single service available including leash training, pet training, plant sitting, housekeeping, etc. Our dream is to be able to care for every single pet that is in need even the ones that don’t have any homes, and to be able to hang out with pups and kitties all day long and give them all of the love that they deserve :) We care for pets in our home and both our client’s home by always putting their needs first, we always stick to routines (if they have one), and we even like to take them to doggy parks, buy them toys, buy them treats, teach them new tricks, or even play with them/go on longer walks as well :)

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’ve had all kinds of pets since I was 8, including cats, dogs, hedgehogs, fish, etc so I love animals and am more than capable of taking care of them. I also work in animal care so I have experience in noticing odd behaviors. I am currently out of work so have a very flexible schedule. I am available any hours of the day but prefer to keep it to weekdays. With the right animal I’m willing to do weekends as well. I can easily let the pet outside for restrooms break and can interact with your pet as I love animals. I also am trained to notice odd and out of the ordinary behavior to notice any issues your pet may be having.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I started helping my mom at a humane society when I was around 13, where we fostered kittens until they were ready to be adopted. That’s where I really learned patience and how to care for animals with different needs and personalities. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life-dogs, cats, and reptiles, so I’m very comfortable with everyday care like feeding, routines, and paying attention to behavior. I also currently work in animal care and as a photographer at Wag Atl (Doggy daycare. It’s given me a lot of hands-on experience and made me really confident handling our fluffy friends. I know every pet is different, so I try to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I'm very passionate about animals, I just love dogs and take their care very seriously so I would love to sit with your pets! I currently do work full time with a doggy daycare; my off days are Tuesday/Wednesday. But I am available every day of the week, as long as you are comfortable with an 8-hour workday in between care. I can stay with your fluffy friends through the night, no problem! And of course provide walks/potty breaks/playtime! When caring for my your pets I keep it similar to how i treat my own animals unless called for otherwise. I regularly take them out on walks and potty breaks, play time is a must and I like to keep a strict eye on the pet to make sure they're safe and sound at all times. I will always keep in contact with you and give regular updates in pictures of how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life. I have been riding and training horses for almost 20 years and I have applied that knowledge to caring for my own puppy. I’m a proud dog mom and I’d love to be able to provide care for your own fur babies! I am working from home so I have plenty of time to dedicate to the care of your pet. I have the flexibility to fit into your schedule for walk and meet and greets I have experience caring for dogs who are high energy and with special needs. I can adhere to your dogs’ specific diet and exercise needs. I’m an active person and love to take hikes with a furry friend!

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.

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.

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.
