“Jennifer was so great with Tiggy! She was able to get him to come out for pets and love! He had an accident and she cleaned it up for us with no complaints. The pictures she sent were so sweet too! I will gladly book with her again!”
“Jen was absolutely wonderful and took such loving care of my two kitties while we were away. She went above and beyond when we were concerned with one of the cat’s health. Jen is very professional. It’s quite evident that she loves animals, and I’m so glad we found her on Rover. Delightful to work with.”
“Pretty sure my dogs adore Toryn over my husband and I, hence why we are repeat customers! My puppers are always so happy and well taken care of when Toryn comes to visit, and I’m so grateful to have that peace of mind! Thank you again, Toryn!”
“Becky was great for my two kitties. She checked in on them everyday and left me some notes and pics to let me know they were safe while we were out of town for a week. I know the kitties appreciated having her there and I appreciated her timeliness, cleanliness, and kindness!”
“Max checked on Jake for us on Christmas Day while we were gone for the day and again later in the week when we went out of town. Jake did great with him! Max was prompt and communicated often with us. He posted several pics of Jake playing in the yard and enjoying himself. I highly recommend Max! We’ll definitely use him again.”
About: I have taken care of all different types and breeds of animals, such as dogs, cats, reptiles, hamsters, birds, horses, and guinea pigs. I have experience with both energetic puppies and gentle senior pets, including administering medication and basic training. I’m currently a student at UC Blue Ash, with classes Monday through Friday, typically from 7:30 AM to 1:00 PM. I’m always available for pet care before and after those hours, and I’ll keep you informed of any changes to my schedule to ensure consistent, reliable care. In my client’s home, I follow their pet’s regular routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide fresh food and water, daily walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I also handle any special needs like medication, crate training, or senior care. I always keep the home tidy and give regular updates with photos so you stay connected while you're away.
“Karla is very sweet and made Luna feel comfortable right from the beginning. She even went outside in the rain when Luna didn’t want to go out alone. Very thankful she was able to watch our girl on short notice.”
About: I’ve had both dogs and cats since I was little, while I’m more comfortable with cats, I am definitely capable of taking dogs on short walks when needed. I’m able to give pets medicine, mainly with food but can by hand too. It’s mainly to give me something enjoyable to do in between normal part time job work to gain a bit of money. I want to start my own pet photography business so getting to meet other peoples pets will help a lot with that too. While I can’t have clients pets stay at my own home, I would frequently check in on them at their home, make sure they’re fed, and have fresh water. If it’s a dog take them for a walk and get some energy out. But mainly I want the pet to be comfortable with me, know that I’m a safe person while their human is away.
“Ashley was wonderful with our dogs and gave us peace of mind while we needed a sitter! She sent lots of pictures showing us how happy they were and the care she was providing. We highly recommend Ashley and will be booking with her again for future sitter needs!”
“Jen did drop in visits for our cat Oscar and she was so amazing! She was so sweet to our cat and he loved playing with her. She also took some really awesome photos of him and gave us detailed updates while we were gone. Highly recommend Jen to take care of your fur baby when you are gone.”
About: I have been helping care for dogs since I was 10. I grew up with Dalmatians, dachshunds, black labs and Dobermans. To say I love dogs is an understatement. Our dachshund (16) recently passed away and my daughters and him were best friends! I am not ready to have a dog back in the house full time but have realized, after dog sitting for a friends and family’s dogs, this would be a great way to help care for others pets. My husband and I work from home so letting the dog out is no problem for us. While we do not have a fenced in yard, we do have a lead to let them out on and take frequent walks. We love to take dogs on hikes in the bike trails behind our house. Working from home enables us to make sure your doggy is well taken care of and loved on. We love walking dogs and playing fetch.
“Julie did great at looking after our cat. She was polite, responsive, respectful and kind from the start. Fred the cat took to her straight away. We’re really grateful for Julie’s help and will use her again.”
“Mackenzie is pleasant, engaged, and communicates well. She followed directions regarding care and feeding, and was willing to be flexible with drop-in times to the extent that it worked with all of our schedules. We recommend and will be booking future drop-ins with her!”
About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life and currently have a Shih Tzu and five cats. I have experience giving medications, working with rescues, and caring for senior or special needs animals. I’ve also provided pet sitting and drop-in visits for many friends and family members over the years. As a pet photographer, I’ve worked with all kinds of animals- shy, playful, quirky, and energetic. I treat every pet with love, patience, and respect like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and already care for my own pets throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give full attention to your pet’s needs — whether that’s a midday walk, a calm visit for snuggles and feeding, or keeping a consistent routine while you’re away. Animals are a big part of my life and I intentionally build my day around giving them care, comfort, and companionship. I treat every client’s home and pet with the utmost care and respect. I always follow instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and double-check everything before leaving. I wash my hands before and after visits, keep a calm presence around the animals, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and notes so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
