“Jacob did an amazing job with our two dogs and home. He came out and met them the night before on short notice. He was a lifesaver and we will be calling him again! Our dogs can be choosy and they hit it off with Jacob right away. Great Experience!”
“Emily is a great pet sitter! She stayed at our house with 4 dogs and 1 cat for 5 days. She has a good understanding of dog behavior and is at ease with them. We have a dog who is hesitant to go to anyone new (and sometimes anyone familiar), he had no problems going to Emily on her first visit here. We have another dog with a behavior issue, in talking with Emily about it we learned that she is knowledgeable about this issue and had no problems with the dog while she was at our house. While we were gone, Emily informed us about a problem at the house which I appreciated. The house was clean when we returned home and the pets were happy. The pictures we received of our pets while we were gone were good and we were reassured everything was going well. We will for sure use her services again and I recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
“Timothy was awesome with my sweet boy Dozer! He did everything as instructed including medication administration and followed his special diet. We will be booking with Timothy again in the near future. He even sent photos!”
“Audrey was excellent. Both our dogs and cat were well-cared for; our house looked great upon our return. She communicated regularly, reassured us that out pets were doing well and were well looked after while we were away.”

“Abigail did a fantastic job caring for and loving on our babies while we were gone. She sent multiple updates daily including pictures which made being away a little easier. She truly is a dog lover and was understanding of each of our pups and their needs. She made our babies feel right at ease and comfortable which was huge as our dogs can be very people selective. Our dogs are quite reactive to people and other dogs which made us anxious to leave them in the first place. Abigail was more than understanding and accommodating of the schedules we have in place to prevent tense situations in our neighborhood. Faith and I are so appreciative of her and would recommend her to anyone! Five stars is not enough! We will definitely be booking with her again for trips and weekly drop ins for our long work days!”

“Schuyler was an absolute life-saver. The first day of our vacation my mother fell and broke her hip and I was extremely stressed and spent my entire vacation in a hospital in Charleston, SC. Schuyler continued to check on me daily and sent pictures and updates about Crosby and Murphy. She managed my house, checked my mail, and made sure everything was running smoothly at home so I could focus on my mother and her care. When I got home, the house was perfect and the pups were healthy and happy. I cannot recommend Schuyler enough. She was absolutely awesome!!! Jean Scott”
“Shelby was awesome for our dog Dewey. She kept us constantly informed and asked questions whenever she was concerned about him or needed clarification. We'll definitely be using her again and would recommend her to a friend!”
About: Student Affairs professional for OHIO and love all furry animals. I had an amazing Norwegian Elkhound Mix and 2 cats. Now I have 9 month lab mix and 1 cat. Both very friendly and good with everyone. I'm very patient, optimistic, and kind. I have experience with pups & senior dogs. I'm comfortable administering medication, including injections and promise to love your pet unconditionally while they are in my care. Depending on the needs of your pets they'll enjoy at least one walk a day, potentially a hike, and get plenty of attention throughout their stay with me. Before rescuing my current dog, I trained two Great Pyrenees from 6 months to 3 years for a friend. I'm comfortable with all dogs and cats and hope I can help provide care for you soon! During the school year I work from home 2 days a weeks and in the summer 3 days! This gives me plenty of flexibility to check on your pets as needed. Additionally, I have the flexibility to check during my lunch break if needed when I'm in the office. I have a fenced in backyard and will gate off sections of our home until we know the dog is comfortable in our home and with our dog & cat. We block off the stairs to keep them on the ground floor with us.
“Lena stayed at my house keeping my cats company for a week. She seemed to keep my cats very happy without me and left the house exactly how I left. Commutation was good and easy. I will hire again next time I need it.”

I’m also a dog owner myself, so I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy and attentive. I stay active, love spending time outdoors, and always make sure pets get the exercise, love, and attention they deserve.

I can do early mornings, late nights, overnights, etc. if you need me, I’m there to take care of your pet! When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would my own. I make sure your pet sticks to their usual routine, gets lots of attention, and feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you're away.
“Our pup was very happy being watched by Emma and we were happy to know she was in good hands and have frequent updates on how things were going. Thank you for taking such good care of her!”
About: I have had pets since I was a child and I love being around animals. I was expected to feed, walk, groom, and take care of all the animals I had. I enjoy the work and I am organized when doing it. I am used to taking the time out of my day to spend with pets and take care of them. I can adjust to any routine, my classes are flexible. I will follow any rules needed to properly care for whatever pet I am taking care of. I am very passionate about keeping the environment safe and friendly for the pet and myself.

Paul Z.
“I have observed Paul many times walking his German Shepard. Paul's dog is very well behaved. It is obvious he loves animals. We have a dozen dogs in our neighborhood and they all love him. He has assisted people with training their dogs, he is taking care of a dog right now. He handles dogs with patience and kindness, and draws the best behavior out dogs he works through consistent commands and encouragement. He would be a very good Rover employee.”

Paige K.
“Paige is WONDERFUL, and I would trust her with my dog any day :) when I had her watch my pup for the weekend, she took amazing care of him. She did the obvious (let him out, fed him, walked him), as well as took him on a long hike so he could get out, get some fresh air, and let his energy out. She is someone who genuinely cares about animals, and she would do an exceptional job with any animal who is in her care.”
