About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including both large and small dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, turtles, and fish. My professional background includes working at a veterinary clinic for several months, followed by a year and a half at an animal humane society, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals with diverse needs. I currently work at a doggy daycare, where I continue to build my knowledge of canine behavior, safety, and care. In addition to my professional experience, I have provided dog and house sitting services for family friends. I am experienced in caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs, ensuring they receive the patience, attention, and specialized care they require. As a lifelong animal lover, I also care for a variety of pets of my own, including three dogs, five cats, a rabbit, and a betta fish. My hands-on experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments allows me to provide dependable, compassionate, and attentive care for every pet as if they were my own. I work Monday through Friday, typically from 6:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., which gives me plenty of time each afternoon and evening to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship for your pets. I also have weekends completely free, allowing me to dedicate full days to giving your furry family members the love, attention, and care they deserve. I am committed to ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I tailor my care to each pet's individual needs and always follow the owner's instructions and routine. I strive to provide at least 30 minutes of playtime and enrichment activities during each visit. For pets without access to a fenced yard, I also provide approximately 30 minutes of neighborhood walks, depending on the pet's age, size, energy level, and overall health. Afterward, I continue engaging them with indoor play or enrichment activities to keep them mentally and physically stimulated.
“Our golden retriever Chelsea had a great time with Kanika and Jan! We really appreciated the meet and greet prior, frequent photo updates, flexibility in our timing with our travel, and the great effort put forth in considering Chelsea's needs and preferences. Highly recommend!”
“We've boarded 4Xs with Amanda and can't say enough good things: amazing family environment, responsive to messages, dependable. This last time we left our 2yo German Shepherd and 7 month old puppy with Amanda for 2.5 weeks. It was a long time for us, but both dogs were healthy and happy. Unfortunately my puppy isn't 100% housebroken yet but he and his crate/bedding were clean and well taken care of. I could tell they had plenty of exercise and good stimulation. Already going to book her for a fifth time.”
“We love Sandi! Treats our dog as if it were her own. She was so attentive to Stella's needs. If you want a great sitter Sandi will give your pet the best love and care.”
“Kim was absolutely the best!! She took such good care of my girl! My Kaycee is a bit timid and scares easily and Kim took her time letting Kaycee get comfortable and gave her extra loving! I was able to go to my work convention and relax knowing Kaycee was in such good hands!!”
“This was our first time using Rover. We are so pleased with everything. The Stamms are so nice and took great care of Charlie. They sent us updates and pictures during his stay. He was very happy and relaxed when we picked him up! Usually we get the cold shoulder and ignored when we bored him… but not this time! We will definitely be booking with the Stamms in the future. It’s so refreshing and reassuring knowing our pet is safe and taken care of when we are out of town.”
“Debby and Randy watched my 2 dogs Clio and Sola. Less than 2 weeks before our trip Clio went blind, they agreed to keep them both anyway. I felt so much better knowing they were in private home care similar to their home routine. Debby and Randy made it possible to enjoy our vacation, I recommend them highly.”
“Katie was a perfect sitter for Nash! She gave him the attention and love he wanted, a great house to feel comfortable in and he almost didn’t want to leave!”
“Raven was such a lifesaver for us. We went out of town last minute, and she was able to take such amazing care of our dog. We are so grateful and will definitely use her again. 🙂”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Katie. She was absolutely amazing with our puppy, Lily, sending us updates, pictures, and videos that really put us at ease. Katie had crates available so we didn’t even need to bring our own, and she created such a safe and welcoming space for Lily even while boarding other dogs. We could tell Lily was enriched and stimulated during her stay, and she loved playing in the fenced-in yard with her new dog friends. Katie was also very flexible with timing, which we really appreciated since we needed to book on short notice. Lily came home happy and we could see she was loved and cared for like family. We’ll definitely be booking with Katie again!”
“I've used Tasia multiple times for Ava and this time she watched Willa. Ava and Willa are VERY different and she did an amazing job. She sends pictures and videos often and puts me at ease with how my babies are doing. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”
“Karin was absolutely amazing! She opened her home up to my puppy Bentley! She gave exceptional care to him. She went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable! She gave updates throughout the days she kept him and he even interacted with her dog. I give her 12/10 stars. She was absolutely wonderful and trustworthy with my baby boy!”
“Jennifer took excellent care of Ruby over the weekend. Ruby had the chance to play with another dog and she enjoyed it very much. I would highly recommend Jennifer to take care of your fur babies!”
“Rosie was excellent! I can’t say thank you enough! She sent me photos almost every hour! She made sure my puppy was well! Great communicator! I would definitely come back to Rosie!”
“We just used Kelsey to dog sit our French bulldog this weekend. I would definitely recommend her to a friend. Communication was excellent. I got a lot of pictures and videos all weekend long. My dog loved playing with her dogs.”
“Leann was amazing with our dog! I was terrified to leave him and she made me feel so much better about the situation. We were going for a week on vacation and I got many updates and videos. I was honestly scared he wouldn't want to come home lol. That's how amazing she was. I recommend her to everyone. I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter”
“I would use Aparajita again in the future. She treated my baby like one of her own, even talking care of his itchy paws. I was constantly updated with pictures and messages that explained what they did that day and how she treated the itch. I had a worry free vacation because of her.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hamilton
We found Rover after a family member who was supposed to watch our dog got sick. Robert was able to accommodate our last minute request to watch our dog, Zara, for a week. At the Meet & Greet, he was very gentle and attentive to Zara and she took to him almost immediately. He asked about her schedule, likes/dislikes, etc. He made feel us feel comfortable and put our minds at ease. Robert communicated with us often, sending pictures, videos, and updates. Zara was happy and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Robert, he's a great dog sitter!
If you are looking for someone, reliable, communicative, honest/trustworthy, respectful, and very loving, Morgan is the one for you! Morgan went out of her way to make a last-minute booking work for us, taking a 45 minute drive TO OUR HOME just to do a meet and greet to make me feel more comfortable (my puppy was boarded in her home). Morgan kept me in the know with my pup’s care, was very patient, and didn’t make me feel like it was a hassle at all for her to watch my puppy (despite how high maintenance she is)! It was clear when I got my puppy home, that she had been very well loved! I am very thankful to have found her, and if you book her, you will be too! I seriously cannot say it enough, Morgan is amazing! I will definitely be using her again in the future.
I'm pretty careful about who I let watch my dog because he's can be reactive if he gets stressed enough. Only people who are really good with dogs can watch him successfully. It was immediately clear to me that Kelsey knows dogs and dog body language really well by how she handled the meet and greet. Also her dogs had really high EQ and were really good at reading his body language. I'll be back here the next time we have a trip. If you need someone really good with dogs go with Kelsey.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Hamilton on Rover is $39.59 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding 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 Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 893 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hamilton. About 93% of Hamilton sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
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.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
