“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.”
“Tess was absolutely incredible. She really had the magic touch with my very shy cats and was able to get them out of their hiding spots to hang out with her (or at least say hi to her haha). When I met Tess she was also very friendly and excited to take care of the cats. She really went above and beyond, was responsive and sent great photos and descriptions. It made my trip much less stressful knowing my babies were so well taken care of and that they liked her!! I will definitely be booking with her in the future.”
“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.”
“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!”
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.
“Angel was extremely responsive when setting up the meet and greet and took amazing care of Mr Cat! She sent daily photos and updates and he looked happy and cared for!”
“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.”
“Beth is great with our girls. Her communication is always timely. She’s so sweet and loves our girls like they are her own. Lilly our rescue warmed up to her quickly which is always a great sign!”
“Saul took time to come over and meet Myla before his first drop in. He has been extremely helpful in helping us take care of our puppy. Great at communicating when he will be dropping in and even sends us daily updates and pictures!”
About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 14 years of experience caring for dogs of various ages. I have a 5-year-old Australian Shepherd back home, who I personally helped train, and I previously cared for my family’s 14-year-old senior dog in her final days, so I understand the unique needs of both energetic and aging dogs. Spending time with them is incredibly therapeutic for me. I can’t wait to connect with your pup and provide the same love and care I give my own! Whether it’s walks, playtime, or special attention, I’m here to make sure they feel their happiest self! I really miss my dog back at home after moving here so looking to care for dogs occasionally when I have some free time on the weekends :) I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pup. I too, consider my dog my family and I can promise to care for yours in the same way, following any specific instructions you have for me. I moved on my own this summer so I’m looking forward to providing pups with my undivided attention when you (owners) need it most.
About: Family and friends started asking me to take care of their pets when I was around 15 years old. Ever since, I've taken care of dogs and cats (even a few lizards!) for people all over my hometown. I've done simple tasks like going to someone's home to just let the dogs out to potty and feed them, all the way to staying at people's homes while they're away. When I was between jobs as a teenager, I briefly worked for a local company that took care of pets on the daily. I've taken care of puppies, small dogs, big dogs, senior dogs who need meds and extra patience, etc. I have a huge heart and am a very empathetic person, especially when it comes to animals of any kind. I have always had a dog or dogs in my family, but am currently pet-less so I'll have all my love to give for your furbabies! I am currently unemployed for the next two months until I go back to school at the beginning of August. I’m very flexible when it comes to time up until then. If you continue with me until that time, then we can talk about what pet care will look like for me after that time frame. I currently do not offer care in my own home, but am more than willing to do whatever you need in your home. Walks, lots of hang out time, more than happy to find the nearest dog park to you (if your pups like others), maybe trips to the store for treats if you’re cool with it! I will always respect your boundaries no matter what.
“Laura has been absolutely amazing with my dog. She does weekend check-ins and walks for us, and I genuinely couldn’t ask for anyone better. My dog can be a little more challenging than most, but Laura is incredibly patient, thoughtful, and attentive with him. She really takes the time to understand his personality and needs instead of just going through the motions. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. You can tell she truly cares about the dogs she works with, and that makes all the difference. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and dedicated. She goes above and beyond every time.”
“Suzanna was great! She was very clear with communication and was easy to reach/quick to respond. She sent updates and pictures when she stopped in to check in on the kittens and made sure that they felt at home! I would highly recommend her!”
About: From the day I was born, I've been around dogs. I've always been the caretaker type, so I've been caring for them and loving dogs since I was young. When I was 18, I got my first dog, Tucker. I raised him from the time he was 8 weeks old up until the day he passed at 15. He was my soul dog. At age 14, he had to have both of his eyes removed, so I have personal experience with blind dogs. I now have my heart dog, Zoie, who I’ve put through training with Roaming Rover’s. I’m also an active volunteer at Cincinnati Animal CARE so I interact with all types of dogs. I typically do walk group or day trips there so I’ve handled dogs of all sizes and personalities! I'm currently working full-time from home but I have a lot of flexibility and can really work from anywhere as long as I have my phone and/or access to the internet. Again, I'm pretty flexible and can really make just about any time work to come play with your pups and/or walk them! I work fully remote so I’m able to let your dog out/walk them as often as needed! My dog gets several walks per day with plenty of opportunity to get energy out. Also, since going through training, I’ve learned a lot about enrichment for dogs and how that looks different for each dog.
“Crista was great with our four cats! She accepted our last minute booking request and was very responsive throughout the entire stay. She followed the detailed instructions we gave her and provided updates and photos at each visit. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I will absolutely be booking with Susan again! She gave thorough updates, and took such great care of our cat. Prim likes to hide, and Susan made it a point to search high and low until she found her so that she could send me picture updates and give her lots of love and affection. Susan also left us a card congratulating us on our wedding, which was the sweetest personal touch. I will absolutely recommend her to anyone!”
“I have so much anxiety leaving our cats, but Wolf made me feel so at ease! Their pictures and notes each day were wonderful and helped me enjoy my trip. We hope to book them again for our next travels!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Wright
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.
Hannah did great watching my cat while we were gone on a long vacation. She was able to find my cat even in her hiding places, and always sent a picture and update. She was easy to communicate with for dropping off keys, etc. I would definitely recommend her for your pet!!!
Tori is the best Rover I've used (and I've used many good ones). She took care of my cats as if they were her own, and left my place in better condition than it was when she arrived. I would definitely book Tori in the future. I'd also recommend her to my family and friends with zero hesitation.

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Fort Wright on Rover is $14.43 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,314 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fort Wright. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Wright 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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
