“Thank you, Amanda, once again,for watching our fur babies! We always know they are in good hands because you understand their individual personalities. We really appreciate you!!! Thank you so much!!! Janet and Pam.”

“Susan was absolutely incredible with our dogs! She took the time to come for a visit before house sitting and then took so much care of our little animals and home while she was there. We will definitely be reaching back out to her when we need someone to watch our dogs again!”

“Kiera is the best! She took such great care of our zoo and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and safe. She stayed in touch with updates and photos and we vacationed easy because we knew they were in great hands. We came back to a tidy house and content animals. 14/10”
“As always, Leesa is great with all of our animals. They love the attention and long walks! We appreciate the communication and photos. Thanks again Leesa!”

“Elisa cared for 2 dogs and multiple cats in my home. It was wonderful knowing all the pets were being cared for and loved while I was away! I had plenty of updates and all my cats/dogs seemed so relaxed when I arrived back home.”

“Erin is very conscientious and professional. Took great care of Rocko and our home while we were gone and communicated well throughout her stay. Would definitely use her services again!”

“Emma always takes amazing care of our girl! She sends pictures while we are gone for a week and even sends pictures when she just comes to walk her during the middle of the day while we are at work. She even did a little art project with Piper to give to us as a gift for engagement. We moved to Dayton a year ago and Emma is the best thing that has happened to us since then! Piper always seems in the best spirits when we get home and we know she is well loved while we are gone. We are so lucky to know Emma and always leave home knowing our dog is in the BEST hands.”

“Monroe was INCREDIBLE. This was my first time ever leaving our animals with a pet sitter and so I was very anxious, but Monroe helped calmed my nerves. She was very responsive to messages, sent tons of pictures of the animals daily, and took great care of them. All my animals loved her! I came home to a clean house and our mail brought in, which we didn't even ask her to do. We will definitely use Monroe to watch our animals again!”

“Dorothy has a very sweet and kind spirit. She is excellent with communication and she is willing to go above and beyond to make your pets feel comfortable. We truly appreciate Dorothy hanging out with our Gracie, Mitty and Indie this wekened!!”

“Emily was great with our two cats! I have one super social kitty and one not so social kitty and both completely hit it off with her. We also scheduled everything very last minute and on a holiday to boot, but Emily made it incredibly easy to plan and took a lot of the stress out of the evening for us. We will be in contact again as necessary - and thank you SO much Emily!!”


“Brandon is INCREDIBLE- what a gem! Took such great care of our sweet girls and genuinely loves all animals. He is so kind and communicative, and was a pleasure to host at our house. We have already booked him again and plan to use him regularly, our cats loved him!”

“Anya is great. She loves my dogs so much and takes such great care of them! She checks in with me constantly and sends pictures so I’m not missing too much. Having someone who can deal with my anxious dogs makes leaving them so much easier!”

About: I can manage diverse dog personalities and needs. Being patient with dogs of all sizes and ages. Dedicated to keeping them safe and happy! *Mostly dealt with large dog breeds Im currently a full time student with mainly morning classes, so I am available to care for your pets on weekdays typically after 4, and on weekends! I always clearly communicate expectations, worries and goals with pet parents before watching/walking the pet and continue to communicate as needed throughout the day to ensure your satisfaction and ease any potential worries!
About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, nothing brings me more joy than bonding with animals of every shape, size, and personality! I effortlessly adapt to your pet's unique personality, whether that means endless games of fetch or quiet, cozy companionship for a sweet senior. I am incredibly diligent with feeding schedules, safety, and household rules. Expect regular photo updates, boundless affection, and total peace of mind knowing your pet is in the absolute best hands! I work a hybrid schedule with 2-3 WFH days a week. This means that I can be very flexible with weekday schedules and especially open on weekends. Whether you want a weekend getaway or a weekday check-in, I am more than happy to accommodate in the Dayton area! When caring for pets in your home, my top priorities are keeping your companions safe, comfortable, and strictly adhering to their usual routines. I treat your home with the utmost care and respect—ensuring entryways are always locked, gates are secure, and living spaces stay spotless. For cat households, I'm extra vigilant about double-checking doors, windows, and litter areas, while keeping life completely stress-free for your feline friends. You can count on clear daily updates, frequent photos, and complete peace of mind knowing your home and pets are in conscientious hands.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I could remember. They’ve always held a special place in my heart. I offer flexibility like no other, as I work from home for my day job. Let me treat your animals the way i’d treat mine, nothing but love and respect! I currently work a hybrid schedule. Some days i’m in the office until 4pm, monday and fridays I work from home, leaving me tons of time to look after your animals! Weekends are typically free. I’m also very flexible on what I offer. You need a house sitter for a getaway weekend? I’m your guy! You need a drop in for bathroom break/walk during the week, I’m your guy! I have a fully fenced in backyard with a very good amount of space. I have 2 cats that love all animals. If i’m coming to your home, it will be treated with the same respect and standards I have for my own. Very clean, safe, and trustworthy!
About: I have a great deal of passion for training dogs and horses. I think it's valuable to be consistent and patient when teaching animals to help them grow in confidence and reduce confusion. I've also loved and cared for a multitude of different species including horses, donkeys, ponies, alpaca, sheep, goats, dogs, cats, bearded dragons, turtles, ferrets, sugar gliders, chickens, peasants, and quail. If you have unusual pets, I'd love to meet them! My routine is to come home after work, have some dinner, and then play & snuggle with my cats. I'd love to spend time with more pets! It's important to me that petsitters understand individual pet body language & communicate with pet parents to ensure that every pet feels secure & comfortable with someone new in their environment.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gateway
Atlas was great! We needed someone to spend quality time with our kitties while we were away for 10 days and she took excellent care of the cats and our home. Her communication and pics allowed us to not worry and truly enjoy our trip. We will be using Atlas for future trips for sure!

Erin did an amazing job staying in our home and watching our two pups! We knew she’d be a great fit during the meet and greet when she asked great questions and took thorough notes. Each day we received updates and pictures. She went above and beyond as well and left the house in perfect condition. One of our dogs is very anxious. She took things very slowly with him, was patient, and met him where he was at. By the end he had warmed up to Erin, and she sent us a picture of them sitting together! We are so happy we found Erin, will certainly rebook with her in the future, and recommend her!!

We have had multiple great experiences with Brooke watching our dogs. She is so easy to communicate with and keeps us posted on how things are going with daily photos, videos and notes. We feel very comfortable leaving our dogs and our home in her hands when we are out of town.
