“Siri was a delight to work with. Her own introduction here on Rover is just the beginning. Over a long holiday, Siri’s plan, approach, visits, support for both our cat and dog, communications, consistency, and follow up were impeccable. She put our minds at ease and earned our trust. I’m happy to say that we found someone that we can count on.”


“Susan is awesome and so caring! She cares for my pup just like I would! She’s very reliable and follows all the detailed instructions. I am glad to hire her again!”

“Jessica did a wonderful job taking care of our 4 cats. From the moment I first contacted her, she was willing to come meet all of our cats and see our home before we were away. She was always on time and able to administer topical medicine for one of our cats everyday. We also appreciate that she took out the trash on her last day. We would be happy to have her back to take care of our babies!”

“Elizabeth did a great job dropping in on our gaggle of kitties (mama and babies fosters added some chaos!) While we were out of town. I appreciated her being agreeable to a quick meet and greet beforehand since our logistics were a little complex and too much to type out ? She followed instructions well and kindly brought in a couple packages we received. I recommend her for sure!”

“Allison is the best! She is a great communicator - she responds quickly and clearly. She sends lots of pictures and follows directions perfectly. She took such good care of our pups and they loved her! We will definitely use her again! Thank you, Allison!”

“Taylor was great with our cats! She followed all of our instructions perfectly and gave our cats lots of playtime. She updated us with cute photos each visit and was quick to respond! We were confident our babies were in good hands!”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, including playful puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I am comfortable administering medications, following special care instructions, and creating a routine that helps pets feel happy and secure. I have also volunteered with 4 Paws for Ability training future service dogs and with Cincinnati Animal CARE walking shelter dogs, giving me experience with many different breeds, personalities, and needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and love building trust with each animal I care for. I work a typical Monday-Friday 9–5 schedule, but caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for outside of work. My mornings, evenings, and weekends are available for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and giving your pets the attention they need. I love staying active with dogs and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. My priority is always making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they are with me. My home has a fully fenced-in yard, providing a secure space for dogs to enjoy outdoor time and play safely. I also have cats who are used to sharing their space with other animals and are happy to keep to themselves, allowing visiting pets to have a calm, low-stress environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I would want for my own home. I follow all instructions closely, maintain pets’ routines, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“Ashley & Trinity are reliable and super communicative. They were very proactive when one of our cat litter box (automatic) stopped working. We are very thankful to have such reliable cat sitters like thyme that care to do a good job but that you can honestly feel they care for our kitties. They love them.”

“Emily did an exceptional taking care of Goldie. She's very diligent about making sure she does everything expected. (Our dog has diabetes and several eye issues). We plan to have her drop by a lot in the future.”

About: Hi! We're Charlotte and Leslie, your favorite Queer Aunties. Our boys are Otis and Auggie and they can't wait to meet you and your pet! Otis is the Friendliest Friend Who Ever Friended -- he's a 68-pound pittie mix who has never known a stranger. He is great about matching energy with his doggo friends and responds well to communication from other dogs. We joke that his energy level is along the lines of being a sprinter, not a marathoner, but if your pet is a marathoner he will do his very best to keep up. As long has he gets to take a nap afterward, LOL! Auggie loves to run in the back yard with his friends and play tug with them. He's also a pittie mix spends his time either solar charging in the yard or napping near his humans. We've learned that he sometimes needs slow introductions to new friends and is perfectly content to spend time in his crate to decompress when needed. I've owned dogs since I was a teenager and have added cats to my household in the past few years. We have experience with special needs dogs and cats - we like to learn what their needs are so that we can set them (and us!) up for success. We're accustomed to giving medication, syringe feeding, monitoring behaviors, etc. We both work from home and are able to play with your pet and let them out for potty breaks multiple times a day. If left home alone, it would be for no more than 2-3 hours at a time. Your pet will be loved and spoiled as if it were our own. We allow our pets on the furniture and have multiple cat trees and dog beds around the house. We have a large fenced-in back yard for the pups to run and play in. Otis also has a couple of friends in the neighborhood that we may introduce your pet to for a group playdate. Your pet is sure to have a fun time no matter what!
“Paige was amazing with our pups! Loved the pictures and the updates. Our dogs can be a handful, very loving and playful but a handful, haha. Paige took great care of them, was on time, and did a great job. Definitely book her!”

About: As a dog owner myself, I truly understand how much your pup means to you, they’re family, not just a pet. I currently have an 8-month-old Golden Retriever puppy (Moomin) of my own, so I know firsthand the energy, playfulness, and training that goes into raising a happy, well-adjusted dog. Over the past year, I’ve handled daily walks, feeding, playtime, and all the little routines that keep a dog happy and healthy. I love taking dogs to the park for fresh air, playtime, and socializing with other pups, but I’m just as happy keeping them calm company at home if that’s what they prefer, I adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level. I’m attentive to every little cue, whether it’s excitement, anxiety, or just wanting a belly rub, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable the whole time. I also like to keep you updated with quick messages and photos throughout our time together, so you always know your pup is happy, safe, and having a great time. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I’m a full-time software engineer working a hybrid schedule with flexible hours (10 AM–3 PM). I’m typically out of the house on Mondays and Tuesdays, work from home the rest of the weekdays, and I’m completely off on weekends. My schedule is also flexible enough that I can adjust days if needed to match your pup’s needs. On the days I’m home, I have plenty of time for walks, play, and feeding, and I’m usually happy to have a dog keep me company while I work. I regularly cuddle and work alongside my own Golden Retriever puppy, so I’m used to balancing focused work with giving a dog attention, short breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. It means your pup won’t just be looked after, they’ll genuinely have company and companionship all day long. In my own home, I make sure dogs feel comfortable and settled right away, giving them a calm space to relax along with plenty of playtime and cuddles. Since I have my own Golden Retriever puppy, my home is already dog-friendly and set up for a happy, active pet. I take dogs for regular walks and trips to the park, letting them socialize with other dogs when they enjoy it, or keeping things calmer and quieter if that suits them better. I always adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level rather than sticking to one routine for every pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions the owner gives me, so the dog feels as little disruption as possible. I’m attentive to their comfort and cues throughout, and I send regular updates with messages and photos so owners always know how their pup is doing.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs, my family has always had 4-7 large dogs at a time, so I’m very comfortable with them. I’ve had experience with dogs from day-old puppies, to blind dogs, to senior dogs who need help walking. I am currently in classes but I am available to stay overnight to take care of animals, and make frequent visits as needed. My primary availability is on the weekends as I have class during the week. I am not able to take pets into my home, but I am willing to accommodate whatever routines you have with your pet in your home! I can feed, walk, play with, or provide general care for your pet.
About: I’ve recently graduated out of scarlet oaks veterinary assisting, and while in the program i’ve learned all about canine and feline health and signs to watch out for! I also am very attentive to detail so any change in their mood will catch my eye! I love to provide animals with the care they deserve ! I’m currently working part time, but i’m also able to give ur pet the love they deserve on a daily! I’m free for drop ins weekdays from 8am - 10pm and home stays weekdays and weekends ! I make sure to always to respect the place of the client and give the pets the cuddles and love they have been waiting for! I’m attentive to details so any change in a situation between dogs i will know how to handle! Im experienced with more than 1 dog at a time and they were pit bulls!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lockland
Charlotte was on time and professional, taking care of my golden retriever Honey like she was her own! She took her out to go potty, played with her tennis ball and gave her lots of love and attention. Honey was very happy and I would definitely recommend Charlotte to watch your furry friend.

Mia was absolutely amazing with my cockapoo, Ginger! She was reliable, communicative, and took such great care of her while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely book with Mia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lockland 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lockland choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Lockland with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
