About: Hi, I’m Claire! I’m 25 and love both cats and dogs. In college, I nannied for a family with four cats and two dogs for two years, and I also watched their pets when they went on vacation. Between that, my parents’ cat and dog, and a regular cat-sitting client here in Cincinnati, I’ve gotten to spend time caring for lots of different personalities! I’ve handled the messy stuff, too, including cleaning up after a sick dog had an accident in his crate. It’s part of caring for them, and I’m happy to make sure they’re comfortable and taken care of. I’d love to meet more pets around Cincinnati and build up my pet-sitting experience. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, potty breaks, and house sitting. I also work from home on Fridays, so I have more flexibility that day. A little about me: I’m saving for my dream wedding, and everything I earn from pet sitting will go toward it. Getting to hang out with your pets while saving for something I’m excited about feels like a pretty great combination! I work full-time, but have flexibility on Fridays. I’d be able to pop in anytime for feeding, walking, and letting your pups out! I am also available anytime on the weekends that I’m in town! I do not have the ability to board pets in my apartment per my lease. However, I can provide you with character references, if that would make you feel more comfortable with me staying in your home. I am attentive to your pets and make sure that I spend my time engaging with them, if that’s what they want. Every pet has their own personality and I’m willing to adjust to what will make them feel most comfortable!
About: Hi! I’m Winnie, a dependable and caring dog or cat lover who would love to spend time with your pet. I’m attentive, responsible, and happy to provide walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of love. I’ll always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort while keeping you updated with photos and messages along the way! Pet care fits naturally into my weekends, when I have more flexibility and time to give pets plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime. I love having pets around for championship where I can give them the care they need! I care for every pet based on their individual routine and needs, providing plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, meals, fresh water, and lots of love. I’m respectful of each client’s home and follow all care instructions closely.
“I’ve rebooked Laura a few times now and she’s great! She communicates efficiently and is wonderful with our puppy Beau! She sends pictures and videos while she’s there which puts me at ease. I’m grateful for her help!”
“Leeann was incredibly sweet and took wonderful care of our pets. She was very responsive to messages, which we really appreciated! Our only suggestion would be to better utilize the Rover cards to track her visits. Overall, she did a great job, and we’d happily recommend her!”
“Go Anna B! You are wonderful! I truly appreciated you watching after my favorite gal, Derby. I hope you can work with me some in the future. So happy with your care !”
About: I have helped and cared for many different types of animals such as cats, dogs, fish, reptiles and more! I love giving animals that extra time and attention they need and have cared for many owners in the past. I have a fairly busy schedule with college and athletics but I am available throughout the day especially during the morning and evening. I am able to work with clients and provide the appropriate care needed for their pets:) Depending on the home, I am able to do whatever is needed to make my clients feel comfortable! I love keeping my own areas tidy and would love to do the same while caring for animals. Cleaning and making sure the animals things stay kept is a must for me and I appreciate being told if something specific needs done. No job is too much for me:)
“Allison did a great job checking in on our puppy while I was out of town. It looks like our pup had a ton of fun and Allison was respectful, communicative, and easy to work with!”
About: I’m a loving, assertive dog owner. I have confidence handling high energy pups big and small. I have taken some responsibility of family pets since I was young, making caring for dogs second nature. While this is not a full-time job for me, I have plenty of time to share with your pets! I take my dog on walks every day, as he is slightly reactive, I am always aware of my surroundings. I put the safety of the pets first. I use the proper training tools to set them up for success and happiness. I notice animals limitations and take precautions in a every situation.

About: I’ve been watching pets for over 10 years, mostly for neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve taken care of everything from energetic puppies to older pets who need a little extra love and patience. I’m really comfortable with different routines, giving meds if needed, and just making sure each pet feels safe, happy, and cared for!! As a server, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of daytime and evening availability, so I can give pets the attention they need. Whether it's morning walks, midday playtime, or cozy evening cuddles, I love filling my free time with furry friends!! I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by sticking to their usual routine, giving them lots of love and attention, and keeping their space clean and secure. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s, I treat every pet like they’re my own :)
About: When Covid started, I accidentally started my business by helping a couple people who adopted dogs outside of their care knowledge. Helping them with their working class dogs (pitbull, collie, and a GSP) and establish a better owner/pet relationship made me realize that this is the right move for my future. Since then I have started my own business as well as helping others with their new family member(s). No creature is too small or large for me. My smallest dog client is 3 pounds and the largest is 215. Aside from that I have expanded my practices with lizards, snakes, cats, and birds. Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime! I am home most of the day. I do part-time work in hospice as well as part-time classes; (I have a door bachelors degree already working towards a BSN). If you have a special needs animal, I am more than happy to comply with their schedule, I just need to know in advance as much as possible. I have a fenced in yard in the back (will have a fully fenced in yard by the end of August in the front). My dogs have a semi strict schedule of activities to keep them mentally/physically stimulated. I follow suit with everybody’s dog. Everybody eats in their own crate, is provided with soft bedding to sleep on in their own crate, but exercise thoroughly throughout the day.

“Extremely thankful to Wedad for her compromise and professionalism, she took exceptional care of our two cats. Not just doing what we agreed, but going the extra mile making sure they were ok, petting them. Definitively we will recommend her and for sure we’ll ask for her services in the future. Very happy to meet Wedad!”
“Best Rover sitter I have had thus far! They’ve all been great but he was especially detailed with how they all did each day and I could tell he was paying attention because it really fit each personality exactly. He took lots of pictures and touched on the shy one getting attention because she loves it but doesn’t seek it out. Had total peace of mind. He also stayed a little extra time which I so appreciated. Really above and beyond!”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and have had multiple dogs, two cats, and a ball python for over 13 years! In addition to my experience as a pet owner, I have also volunteered at the Cincinnati Zoo in various capacities for 3 years now, where I have learned techniques in animal care relating to a variety of species from mammals to reptiles to birds. I am currently pursuing a degree in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology with the hope to some day work with animals professionally. I was a member of my high schools zoology and marine biology clubs for all 4 years and also founded a beekeeping club. I am currently a college student looking to pet sit during school breaks. I will be in town and available December 13-31 of this year. I offer free meet and greets and I will not have another job at this time and so can be quite flexible to you/your pets needs. I can come over at regular time frames to walk, provide food and water, play, and spend time with your pet. I also offer overnight stays and can accommodate irregular schedules.

Whether in my home or yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. I strictly follow your pet's exact feeding, potty, and medication routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ludlow
I am Colin’s first ever customer on this app and he was absolutely excellent. A last minute trip came up so I booked a couple days before and he was accommodating. He communicated really well and spent a lot of time with Bailey. I’m genuinely impressed with him and he will now be my forever dog walker.
Haley was a lifesaver and stepped in very last minute to take care of my dog. She even made time to come over and meet my dog before I had to leave. Excellent communication and she took great care of my dog. My dog and home were well taken care of. She is wonderful.
Ben earns his numerous 5-star ratings because pets respond to him like he's part of the pack and his communication and accommodation are incredible – I'm very glad to have Ben look after my two fur kids instead of taking them to a resort. They're happier and I'm more at ease getting text and picture updates
AmariYah made this such a great experience, as this was our first time using Rover! She gave us plenty of updates and pictures, and it looks like our pets absolutely loved the experience too! She was very thoughtful and generous with her time, and her care of our little fur babies!
As a first-time pet sitter client, I couldn't have been happier with the experience. Communication was excellent throughout, with updates and photos provided after each visit. It was clear that my dog was receiving great care and attention. I would gladly use Johnnisha again and highly recommend her services.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Ludlow is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $37 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,169 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Ludlow. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Ludlow 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. 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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 Ludlow with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ludlow. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
