“Kayla is amazing!! She spent a lot of extra time with our pups this week which was so kind. Her communication and follow through were excellent as well. I highly recommend her and we will book her again.”
About: I have several years of experience taking care of pets of all kinds. I had a rescue pitbull for 10 years who was my very best friend! He has since crossed the rainbow bridge and I currently do not have any pets of my own, so I am happy to spend time taking great care of other people’s furry friends! I work full time but have flexibility within my job to work from home on certain days. On weekends I am almost always available to provide your pet ample attention! I will treat your pet as if they were my own and do everything I can to make sure they are as happy and comfortable as possible while you are away. I will also take great care to respect any and all rules/guidelines established by the pet owner!
About: I’ve always been a dog person. I took care of my neighbor’s dogs in high school and did a lot of housesitting during and after college. I’m excited to expand my opportunity here. I’ve invested a lot of time training both of our dogs since they were puppies. I also love hiking & live near several parks and trails. I am in between jobs so my schedule is very flexible! I usually walk my own dog once a day but that is easy to work around. We live in a small apartment so I will always travel to you. I don’t have enough space to bring your pets here. Working remotely, I make sure to get out for a minimum of 2 walks a day and I am flexible.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and rabbits within my college years and would love to keep helping people by making sure their fur children are well taken care of. I currently work a part time job and like to work out. If my daily walk has a furry friend with me, that’s even more welcome! I would have no problem in house sitting so long as I am able to get to work for the day and come back to see the little guy/gal. I will be more than happy to play/walk/ visit with the pets as much as possible. I enjoy taking care of animals and will do so to the best of my ability as if they are my own pet.
“Alexandru was very trustworthy and personable! We are so appreciative of all of his help in taking care of our two kitties! He made sure to check everything I showed him each day and kept me up to date on everything!! 10/10 recommend!”
About: Hello! My name is Kala, and I have had a multitude of animals throughout my life. I grew up with police trained German Shepherds, and have had their animals ranging from Ball Pythons to Black Cats. I worked at a Vet Clinic as a Technician’s Assistant in High School, and walked dogs in my family’s neighborhood to make money before going to college. I dog sit friends and family’s dogs regularly, and would love to take care of your animals! I work part-time during the week, so I’m available to take care of animals in the mornings M-F. I am also available all day Sundays! I am always respectful of other people’s spaces, and will ensure your pet feels safe with me both inside and outside! I will also ensure your pet feels loved and cared for, and you feel safe having me around.
About: I have my undergrad in animal science. I volunteered for several years in high school at a no kill animal shelter where I got to foster many dogs. I’ve pet sat for friends and of course had my own pups. :) I’m often off a day during the week which allows me to pop in to take a pup out! Also able to work it into my schedule after work during the work days. Care for your pup would depend on the individual but would most likely include: walks, playing with toys, cuddle time, of course feeding..making sure they are refreshed!
About: I grew up with Weimaraners 🐾 — and thanks to some very patient parents, a few determined (and slightly sneaky 😉) cats 🐱 and other little critters 🐹 made their way into our family too. With nearly 35 years of devoted “cat mommying,” Princess 👑 — my Norwegian Forest cat — is my current fur baby and reigning queen of the house 🏡✨. My schedule is fully flexible 📅, which means your pets are never squeezed into a busy day — they’re the priority 🐾🤍. I maintain their routine in the comfort of their own home 🏡 so they feel secure, relaxed, and genuinely cared for 😌✨. I’m passionate about animals of all kinds 🐶🐱🐾 and committed to providing attentive, personalized care so your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved 🤍 — and have a whole lot of fun 🎾🦴✨ — while you’re away. With decades of hands-on experience, I understand everything from daily routines and medication to reading subtle feline moods like a pro. I don’t just “check in.” I provide intentional, tailored care designed around your pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s a structured walk, enrichment playtime, or calm companionship for a senior kitty or dog, your pet receives focused, one-on-one attention. You’ll receive thoughtful updates, beautiful photos, and clear communication — because trust isn’t optional. It’s everything. Peace of mind should come standard. Boutique care. White-glove attention. Your VIP pets become my VIPs. 🐾✨
About: I have dog sitted for close friends and work colleagues during graduate school. I am still new to dog sitting but I take direction very well and I am willing to learn new things and meet new people! I am currently a pharmacy resident and work mainly during the weekdays from 7am-5pm and work every other weekend starting this upcoming July. My availability for June is open during the afternoons and most early morning for weekdays and open on weekends! I make a point to follow instructions to a T, and if there are opportunities to go above and beyond, I will do so. If dog sitting, I make sure to give the utmost attention to your pet while also meeting your expectations. As for house sitting, I like to treat a home as if it were my own: tidy and organized.
“Tori is the best! She takes great care of my two cats while I’m away, they are happy and healthy when I get home and I receive nice little updates while I’m gone. Tori provides great care and I’m so thankful to have someone responsible and kind to watch my fur babies while I’m away. Pet care used to be my biggest stressor while traveling and now I can thoroughly enjoy myself knowing everything’s good at home :)”
“Ariel did a great job with Foo Foo. She walked her, too k care of her, gave her meds, and is very caring with her. She sent me pictures while she was with her and made me feel at ease that someone responsible was with my baby. I would definitely recommend Ariel!”
“Corey is the best! He has been regularly dropping in on my two pups for a few weeks now and they absolutely love him. He is reliable, punctual, and just has a kind and calming presence. He knows and understands dogs well, and that experience shows. I would trust him with my pets any day!”
About: Hi! I’m Taylor. I have been a pet lover my entire life and have had pets in the home since I was a baby. Growing up I watched many neighborhood pets and volunteered at the local animal shelter. As an adult I continued my volunteer work and became a pet foster. I just adopted my first fur baby in December. I am a teacher with summers off and would love to spend my days walking, playing and loving on your fur baby. With summer just a few short weeks away I will have a ton of available time and flexibility. I am happy to work with your schedule to plan what works best for you and your fur baby. I have been around animals since the time I was little. When I care for your pet I will give it all of the love and attention I would give my own. I also have had a range of experiences from working at the animal shelter so I have experience with all sizes of pets and a variety of temperaments.
About: Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always really loved animals. Growing up we always had a cat, and spent a lot of time around my grandparents dog (shepherd mix). Additionally, the last 6 years I’ve enjoyed petsitting for my sister and taking her dog (Husky-Alaskan malamute mix) on hikes. In the past I’ve walked my friend’s dog (border collie/australian shepherd mix) on a weekly basis. I love going for long walks, and am open to take dogs for walks for 30 minutes up to 2 hours (~ 6 miles). For the past 1.5 years, I’ve been volunteering at an animal rescue a few days a week. Even though I mostly take care of cats there, I do come in contact with the dogs as well. I’m a European physical therapist, currently studying to get my American PT license. In other words, my schedule is extremely flexible to cater to your and your pets’ needs. I do volunteer at an animal rescue a couple days a week, but my hours there are flexible. I currently do not accept pets into my own home for my own pets’ safety. However, I will always closely follow any given instructions about your pets’ care at your home, to make this experience as positive as possible for both you and your pet(s).

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Mitchell
Tess was absolutely amazing with Louie and Twiggy. She stepped in on very short notice, communicated constantly, followed every instruction carefully, and treated both dogs with so much patience and affection. She sent thoughtful updates and photos, noticed small details, asked the right questions, and made sure they were comfortable, safe, fed, and cared for throughout the visit. It was obvious that she genuinely loves animals and takes the responsibility seriously. We felt completely reassured knowing they were with her and would book her again without hesitation. Highly, highly recommend!
Georgiana was amazing! This was my first time using rover and she made me feel at ease! Our dog had an accident in the house and she took it upon herself to clean it up even after I had told her not to worry about it (didn’t want her to have to do that)! Georgiana is very thoughtful and sweet! Would recommend her to anyone!

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 .

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.
