“This was my first time using Elisabeth and I am very satisfied with her services! She was very attentive and informative in the notes and made me feel calm and at ease when she cared for my fur babies. I definitely would use her again and recommend her to others.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and cat owner, I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I currently care for two cats of my own and have experience pet sitting for friends, neighbors, roommates, and family members. I've cared for pets ranging from playful kittens and puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I'm committed to following your pet's routine as closely as possible, whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or simply providing companionship while you're away. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. You'll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to give both you and your pet a stress-free experience from start to finish. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I have two cats of my own, so I'm used to maintaining consistent feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and spending quality time playing and providing affection. I've also cared for friends', neighbors', and roommates' pets over the years, so incorporating walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care into my schedule feels very natural. I work well with routines and understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. As a cat mom myself, I know how stressful it can be to trust another person with the wellbeing of your pets and take the responsibility very seriously. I carefully follow each owner's instructions for feeding, medications (if needed), exercise, playtime, and any special routines that help their pet feel comfortable. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, clean living spaces, and plenty of attention and enrichment while their owners are away. I also know how important communication is, so I provide regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind. My goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and safe while maintaining as much of their normal routine as possible.
“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.”
“I’ve rebooked Laura a few times now and she’s great! She communicates efficiently and is wonderful with our puppy Beau! She sends pictures and videos while she’s there which puts me at ease. I’m grateful for her help!”
“Tess was phenomenal with our cat Melina! Melina doesn't cuddle with just anyone, and in almost all the pictures Tess sent, Melina was on her lap making biscuits! Even during the meet and greet, Tess was so good with her and Melina felt very comfortable. Tess kept us updated regularly during our trip and was very easily accessible. She left us a very sweet note on the last day and even cleaned out Melina's food bowl. We will definitely be using her services again! We are thrilled to have found such an exceptional sitter!”
“Cathy was fantastic looking after our cats. We got lots of photos each day, which our previous Rover didn’t do. We will definitely have Cathy watch our cats next time we head out of town.”
“Megan was so great! She offered to come over to meet before hand to learn everything about our cats. She did such a great job with our cats and sent us pictures everyday. It was so relieving to have someone we can trust with our home and cats while we were away. Thank you!!!”
“Needed a sitter last second and tried Rover for the first time. I’m so glad I picked Mattie! She was super responsive and really was great! And our dog literally loved her during a quick pre-visit and she’s usually wary of new people. I can’t thank Mattie enough!”
“Ben was fantastic with Henry and Homer. I appreciated all the extra care and love Ben gave my guys when I was away. They were very well taken care of and Ben went above and beyond all expectations.”
“I was so worried about Simon but I came back from a 3week vacation and he was wonderful. I know this is because Alison took such good care of him. She was awesome. I would completely recommend her.”
“Andrea has done an incredible job at letting our shy pup go at his own pace. We also appreciate her excellent communication with us about how each visit has been going and in arranging schedules. Darwin is more and more excited each time she visits!!”
About: I regularly pet sit for friends and family. 1-3 weeks mostly; but can do just a few days as well. Private home with a fenced yard. Dog lead in yard is available. I love to walk! Short or long walks are all fine with me. I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’ve owned 3 in my adult life. I even fostered a dog for 9 months! It was hard to give her up; but she went to a loving home. I’m honest and trustworthy and dogs just make every day better! I work a pretty flexible schedule. I’m retired so I have lots of time. If your dog likes car rides and public parks…awesome! There’s also 2-3 dog parks not far from my house I have a big yard that's about 70 yards deep and I have a secured lead in both front and back yards. For added safety, I attach an air tag to your pets collar. There are sidewalks all around my neighborhood for safe walks on a leash. I'm not a fan of dog parks. I prefer to select my walking path to ensure your pets safety. I live alone.
About: I have had multiple dogs since I was in elementary school. I have taken care of a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages, from puppy to adopting a senior Lab. I currently have a 1 year old Golden Retriever. I work from home 5 days a week, so taking care of my dog is part of my daily routine. We love to go on walks through our neighborhood and spend time outside. I have a fenced in, spacious backyard for plenty of outdoor play time. We treat our dog like a member of the family. We don't currently use a crate, but began the puppy phase crate training, so can provide/use a crate if your pup prefers one!
About: I have helped and cared for many different types of animals such as cats, dogs, fish, reptiles and more! I love giving animals that extra time and attention they need and have cared for many owners in the past. I have a fairly busy schedule with college and athletics but I am available throughout the day especially during the morning and evening. I am able to work with clients and provide the appropriate care needed for their pets:) Depending on the home, I am able to do whatever is needed to make my clients feel comfortable! I love keeping my own areas tidy and would love to do the same while caring for animals. Cleaning and making sure the animals things stay kept is a must for me and I appreciate being told if something specific needs done. No job is too much for me:)
“Angel was super attentive to my cats while I was away, and coordinated with me through complicated travel schedules to make sure they would get the care that they need! I’m super thankful for her 💙”
“Leeann was incredibly sweet and took wonderful care of our pets. She was very responsive to messages, which we really appreciated! Our only suggestion would be to better utilize the Rover cards to track her visits. Overall, she did a great job, and we’d happily recommend her!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Fort Mitchell is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Mitchell
AmariYah made this such a great experience, as this was our first time using Rover! She gave us plenty of updates and pictures, and it looks like our pets absolutely loved the experience too! She was very thoughtful and generous with her time, and her care of our little fur babies!
This was my first time using Elisabeth and I am very satisfied with her services! She was very attentive and informative in the notes and made me feel calm and at ease when she cared for my fur babies. I definitely would use her again and recommend her to others.
Ben has an energy where animals of all kinds gravitate to him. Both of my pets were instantly taken with him and they felt at ease with him looking after them – the photos he sent me during the check ins made that very obvious. In the past, I would have looked to take my cat and dog to a Pet Resort – but I prefer having Ben come in to check on them because that takes away the anxiety, seclusion, and chaos of a resort. I've already booked Ben to look after these two again and I will be doing so in the months to come! Very highly recommended...
Fantastic sitter. Felt so comfortable having her keep an eye on our cats and apartment. Also let us know about emergency maintenance updates and sent daily pictures of our littles and loved on them a bunch. Will continue to book Hannah to watch our cats for our trips.
This was our first time using Mattie to sit our 3 cats and it was the best experience! Mattie was extremely thorough with updates and went above and beyond with taking care of them. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our kitties while we were away!!
Rebecca was wonderful with my cat Poe. This was my first time away from him since his shelter adoption, so I was worried about how he would react to my absence. From the photos that I received everyday, he loved her! I had photos of him playing, being pet and brushed, and of him eating and receiving treats. It took me a full year for Poe to roll over and show me his tummy, whereas he was rolling over for Rebecca within two days - she's like the cat whisperer! I felt very secure leaving Poe in her capable hands, and I will utilize her services again in the future. It's such a relief to have someone that you can trust to take excellent care of your furry family member. I highly recommend Rebecca.

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
