About: Grew up with dogs. Haven’t had as many dogs as cats as they required more attention than cats and Rover didn’t exist when I was younger. I had 3 dogs in my young adult life over the course of 30 years. Currently we have a 9 year old pittie rescue and she is well cared for. I’m recently retired so my schedule is very flexible. Rover has made it possible for us to travel with peace of mind that our pets would be cared for. So I figured it would be a good fit as a retirement job and now I can give others the same peace of mind. The retired lifestyle has left me very flexible for going to people’s homes to help with their cat and dog maintenance while they travel. Currently not looking to offer in home services.
“Megan has been awesome walking with our excitable GSD! She is prompt, communicative, and friendly. I love the detailed updates and photos she shares on her walks and trust her to handle our big pup.”
About: I am reliable and have a flexible schedule, and can't wait to meet your pet! I've taken care of animals since I was a teenager. Six years ago I adopted a dog and it changed my life. <3 She's now a senior and enjoys her sleep, walks, and toys. I have experience with blind and deaf dogs too. I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I spend most of my days at home and have a flexible schedule to acccommodate your needs. I am comfortable crating your pets and ensure their safety is my top priority. I will take care of your pets like my own, and be sure to follow instructions so you don't have to worry about anything under my care.
About: Leaving your dog behind can be hard—whether it’s for a weekend getaway or a busy workday. You want someone who’ll treat them with the same love and attention you do. You need more than just a dog watcher; you need someone who gets it. Someone who will keep your dog happy, safe, and loved until you’re back. As a dog mom to two golden retrievers (9 and 5), I’ve had plenty of experience with dogs of all energy levels, temperaments, and needs. I’m comfortable managing medications, preventing allergy triggers, and handling allergic reactions if they arise. Our home has a large front and backyard, perfect for playtime, exercise, and fresh air. Whether your pup needs long walks, belly rubs, or someone to sit quietly and keep them company, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and all the reassurance you need—so you can relax, knowing your dog is in good hands. At the end of the day, it’s not just about keeping your dog fed and exercised—it’s about making sure they feel at home, even when you’re not there. Because your dog deserves the best. And so do you. Both my husband and I work fully remote. We’re flexible with our schedules and always block out time for long walks and a lot of time to play with ours and your pups! We’re early risers as well and are flexible accommodating for your pups needs throughout the day. If caring for pets in our home, you can expect a minimum of 3 walks a day and lots of outdoor time in our front and backyard patio. We’ll keep a close eye on any pups to ensure full safety. If caring for pups in your home, you can expect me to treat your home like my own and respect it fully while also sticking to your pups schedule you would keep on a regular basis. I’d love to work with you to make sure your pups needs are fully met!
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years, including my own pets. I’m patient, reliable, and I always make sure every pet feels comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I can help with walks, feeding, playtime, and even giving extra cuddles when needed. I truly treat every pet like part of my family. 💖 I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of free time to care for your pets and give them all the attention they need! I’m available every day, including weekends and evenings. 💕 I live in a calm, pet-friendly home and always make sure every animal feels safe and loved. I have experience with both cats and dogs, and I keep their environment clean, cozy, and stress-free. Your pets will be treated like part of my family!
About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and that hands-on experience is what I bring to every walk. I understand dog body language, pacing, leash manners, and how to read when a dog needs a break or a bit more activity — not from a course, but from years of actually living with dogs day to day. I treat every walk the same way I would for my own dog: attentive, on time, and focused entirely on their safety and comfort for the full duration. Whether your dog is high-energy, a little nervous around new people, or just needs a steady routine, I adjust to what they need rather than running a one-size-fits-all walk. You can expect clear communication before and after every visit, so you always know exactly how things went. My schedule is flexible throughout the day, so dog walking isn't squeezed into a narrow window — it's a real part of my daily routine. That means I can offer consistent mid-morning, afternoon, or early evening walks, and I'm also able to accommodate last-minute requests or changes in timing without it being a scramble. If your schedule shifts week to week, I can usually adjust to match it. Safety is the first thing I think about with every walk. When I arrive, I double-check that all doors and gates are secure before I bring your dog out, and I make sure the leash and collar or harness are properly fitted before we leave — no slipping out mid-walk. I stick to routes I know well, avoid off-leash areas unless specifically asked, and keep a close eye on other dogs, traffic, and anything that could startle or spook your dog. I always carry water on hot days and adjust the pace or length of the walk based on weather and how your dog is doing that day. Before I leave, I make sure your home is exactly as I found it — doors locked, lights as they were, nothing out of place. If anything ever comes up during a walk, you'll hear from me right away, not after the fact.
About: I’ve owned cats and dogs over the years. My family raised kittens for years when I was in high-school. I also had a dog of my own for 15 years. I’m always the first to volunteer to care for friends and family members pets when they are out of town or need extra help walking them during the work week. I am currently pet free and miss having furry friends around! I work evenings so I have plenty of time during the day to walk pets and take them on adventures! I’m happy to house sit or keep pets overnight as well, as long as they can be left for 4-6 hours in the evening! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I have a dog park at my apartment complex, and take lots of daily walks as well. In your home, I make every effort to keep your pet on their normal schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. My 14-year-old son is gentle, respectful of animals, and has grown up around both dogs and cats, but all pet care and responsibility is handled by me.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could walk. Grew up walking stuffed animals around on a leash just to prove to my parents that I was responsible enough to own one myself. I had two dogs that both lived to 16 so my track record is good I am currently working from home three to four days a week and that allows for me to be flexible with my timing. I can leave the house, let a dog out or just give him/her some extra belly rubs I have a fenced in yard that allows your fur baby to run around freely, but within the home I love to snuggle. Your pets are allowed on furniture and in beds at this household, as long as it’s okay with you.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for family and friends for 2 years. I care deeply about quality pet care. I live an active lifestyle and make sure dogs are exercised and entertain! I treat each pet as my own I’m a part time student with lots of free time to dedicate to pets. Mornings, afternoon and nights I have availability. I’m open to all types of breeds. Dogs will have a safe environment to explore in my home. I treat clients homes with respect, just as I would want someone coming into my home.
“This was our first time with Nikka and she was everything and more that we could have hoped for!!! Her kind and professional manner was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! Pics and clear communication made us feel so comfy that we already booked her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I can remember. I’ve just recently introduced a cat into our dog family and it’s been such a pleasure caring for my babies. I would love to do the same for someone else! I am available at the moment to work any day weekday and weekend, I currently have no restrictions to when I can not do it. I enjoy doing enrichment activities with the animals and playing with them to stimulate their mind. I also like to cuddle with my dogs whenever they want chill time.
About: I have hands-on experience working in a veterinary clinic, where I care for dogs and cats every day. My experience includes handling, feeding, walking, administering medications, monitoring pets, assisting with treatments, and recognizing when something may be wrong. I’m comfortable working with pets of different personalities and energy levels, including nervous or anxious animals. I’m patient and attentive, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe and comfortable. Outside of work, I have a young Whippet of my own, so I understand how important exercise, enrichment, consistency, and patience are for young dogs. I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own! I am a full-time UC pre-veterinary student, and I work part time at Mason Family Pet Hospital. I have consistent breaks during my available weekdays to care for animals. I do my best to care for the animals as though they are one of my own. I try to read their behaviors to better understand their needs.
About: Multi-pet owner with experience caring for giant breeds, puppies & seniors anxious dogs, reactive dogs, and multi-pet households. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I provide patient, reliable care tailored to them. Whether your pet needs extra space, structure, or just lots of love, I’ll treat them like family while you’re away. I work from home, so boarded pets have lots of attention and outside time often. I’m right next to a park with lots of trails, so I’m happy to incorporate walks as requested! I have a privacy fenced yard, with pet friendly turf and lots of space to play! My pets are social and love to play, but my home is also set up to be able to safely separate all pets if yours needs personal space.
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was younger and all through college, and now I have my own 1.5 year-old golden who is truly my pride and joy. I currently work part-time as a teacher and am available for dog walks after 2 PM on weekdays. I am happy to do check ins or walks! 🐾 I have a fully fenced-in yard with a mini dog park right in my backyard—perfect for safe playtime and zoomies! 🐾 My golden absolutely loves walks and cuddles, and I make sure every pup I care for gets plenty of both. 💛
About: I grew up with dogs and have included them in my family as an adult. My childhood dogs were Prince, a golden curly-haired Poodle/Collie mix, and Midnight, a black German Shepherd/Spaniel mix. Prince passed while I was in middle school but I had Midnight throughout my childhood and college years. We walked everywhere in my neighborhood and enjoyed playing in the backyard or just laying in the sun together. My next family dog would be chosen by my 7 yo daughter at the PAWS animal shelter. She found Fantasia - a 1.5 yo Border Collie mix - and they were instantly best friends. Fantasia (Tasia) was a part of our family through raising children and my divorce - becoming my best friend and companion. She passed from old age a few years ago and had lived to be 16 yo. I miss my best friend and furry family member dearly. This is why I am looking forward to caring for your pet and providing the love and care that you would give yourself. I currently have the freedom to care for your pet and meet their needs per your request. Walks and playtime are a given, and I am happy to do basic coat brushing, and of course, will provide lots of TLC. I have a fenced yard and live in a lovely neighborhood with sidewalks. I am also just a mile from 2 area parks -Summit Park in Blue Ash and Webb C. Gower Park in Sharonville. Both are very walkable and dog friendly. If desired, Summit Park has a fenced dog park area for socialization and play. And Sharon Woods Park is a short drive from my house.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I will regularly keep you updated with visits and can follow whatever special instructions necessary! I’ll treat your pet like family and hopefully keep them from missing you too much. I have a background in teaching swim, which has taught me lots of patience, responsibility, and carefulness. While I am currently away at school, at home I took care of my 2 dogs - feeding them daily, walking them twice a week, and bathing them biweekly. This was part of my responsibilities at home and still help with them when I go home to visit. When I’m caring for your pet in your home, I will do my best to ensure they feel comfortable and are sticking to their normal routine. I will respect your, and their space and give them lots of love!
About: I have always loved animals and have experience dog sitting and cat sitting. I also love walking dogs since I love the extra exercise :) I’m great with scheduling and making sure to always be available when possible! One thing I promise to not be, is a flake! I love animals and have a dachshund of my own who I’ve raised since a puppy. Safety of your fur baby to me is always the first most important thing I value! I promise to respect your needs and care for your pet in the best way I can as my own:)

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lockland
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Olivia has been absolutely wonderful with Stella and Lucy! They both love her, and it’s easy to see why. She doesn’t just show up, walk them, and leave. She really takes the time to get to know each dog individually, understand their personalities, and figure out what they need. I’ve especially noticed a huge difference with Stella. Olivia has gradually helped increase her activity and endurance, and Stella is doing so much better because of it. I really appreciate that Olivia pays attention to what she can handle while still helping her improve. It gives me a lot of confidence knowing that both of my dogs are with someone who genuinely cares about their health and happiness. Olivia is also great at communicating, dependable, patient, and just an all-around great person. You can tell she truly cares about the dogs she works with and treats them like more than just another appointment on her schedule. Stella and Lucy are always happy to see her, which probably says more than any review I could write. I would absolutely recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. We’re very lucky to have found her! 🐾❤️
Imani walked our dog, Oli, twice, and we couldn’t be happier with her service. Oli is a very energetic mixed-breed dog, and Imani handled her wonderfully. She was always punctual, communicated excellently, and kept us informed throughout. Most importantly, Oli came back from every walk happy and well exercised. We highly recommend Imani to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter or dog walker!
