Everything went well on our trip with Matthew doing a great job taking care of our 2 dogs for 2 nights. Both seemed to enjoy his stay and we would recommend him to anyone who needs a sitter.

About: I’ve been responsible for the care of pets most of my life. Pets are family to me. I love getting to know their individual personalities and supporting their needs. My routine varies daily and weekly. Weekends and evening are more open but, depending on the day and mommy schedule, I can sometimes be available during the day on week days. Overnight stays can be available for house-sitting if my 14 pound, male dog, Franklin, can accompany me; he is very friendly and attached to me. I will connect with you one-on-one about your pets individual needs and follow their schedule and routine as you identify me to do. I respect your space and guidelines.

About: I worked in the veterinary field for 9 years. I have extensive experience with pets who have fear aggression or need special care due to anxiety or age. I have for the past decade been routinely petsitting or dog walking for friends. I am currently working part time, and my schedule is pretty flexible, so I am open most days to take love and care for your pets!! My main goal in any dog walking or sitting gig is that the pet and the owner are 100% comfortable with me. As a pet owner myself, I know how important our babies are to us. I want there to be no concern about my services provided. I want you to feel confident that I can provide the top most care when it comes to your furry loved ones.

Eric was fantastic! Moose and mittens loved him. He messaged everyday with pictures to make sure we knew our babies were taken care of. Very nice and personable and trustworthy. Thank you so much Eric! We will definitely be using him if he’s available for our next trip!

About: I have a dog of my own, and I’m away for college so I don’t see him much. I would love to connect with other dogs so I can feel more at home! I am currently a college student, so I have plenty of time to walk or visit your dog! I am available Monday-Thursday after 5pm, Friday after 1pm, and selective weekends. I have an electric fence at home which my dog has adapted to. I also make sure to walk him and play with him in order to keep him active, since he is an older dog.

About: I’ve taken care of family pets my whole life, including Labrador retrievers, rescues, and Pembroke Welsh corgis. I love all dogs, playing, walking and cuddling with them! I currently work at a hospital (3 12hr shifts). On days off, I can pop in whenever, and days that I work would be early in the morning and later in the evening. I know how to properly feed dogs, safely walk them with traffic and other dogs, and play with them to ensure they are getting by exercise and socialization time.

If you're like us, we look for care providers with multiple reviews so we have a better idea of who we're hiring. But everyone needs to start somewhere, and this time we decided to give someone a chance who hadn't received reviews yet; boy did we luck out. Jaina did a fantastic job looking after our 80 pound loverboy, Luca. She stayed in our home while we were away five days, and both he--and our home--were well taken care of. He even got a daily walk (in winter, no less!). Jaina is who you want in a sitter: responsive, reliable and kind. She provided daily updates and photos of our dog, too. We would hire her again, and suggest you do too before people catch on and her rates go up.

About: I've always had animals in my house growing up whether that be puppies/kittens or senior dogs/cats. I enjoy spending time with animals and playing with them whenever possible. I also dog/ cat sat for friends and family on numerous occasions. I currently work part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I am available any weekday at certain times (which can be adjusted if needed) and all day on the weekends. I have cared for my pets in many different ways. I've crate trained my dogs for the most part, but I have also trained them without, so working with crates is something I'm familiar with. I also used to live in an apartment building, so walking dogs came on a daily basis and with ease.

About: I love animals as much as I love my family. I’ve had pets my whole life, and cared for more than Ive owned. I also volunteered at the wildlife rescue for over 5 years. I have experience with sick and injured pets as well. Giving medicine orally and injections, including giving fluids with an IV and insulin shots. Several of my pets have lived to be 20, so I also have plenty of experience with the sweet old babes. My dog is also terrified of any loud noises and car rides, he has bad anxiety. So he gets medicine for it when he needs it. Sometimes he releases his anal glands, so then needs a bath (so much fun 🤢) I’m Autistic (formerly called Aspergers), have OCD and ADHD. So I REALLY clean up after your pets!! 😆 I also have experience with house plants and can care for your plants as well! I don’t work a full time job, so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m also a homebody, so I don’t have a busy schedule either. I try to give your pets the calmest and happiest experience while you’re not home. My goal is to help them forget you’re gone, by following the same routine they are used to and giving them all the love, attention and playtime they need. I’m also judgement free and will follow your house rules, religious or otherwise. I will always treat your pets and home with respect.

Debbie did a great job sitting for my 9 year old Boxer in our camper while we laid my Mom’s ashes in Mentor Cemetary. We are from MT and he’s not used to this heat and humidity. I got her with a last minute request yesterday and she did wonderfully. Highly recommend.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for both small and large breeds. I currently have two dogs of my own: a Chihuahua/Jack Russell mix and a Cane Corso/Boxer mix, so I’m comfortable handling dogs with very different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. Growing up, I was surrounded by dogs and horses, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to read animal behavior from an early age. I’m experienced with feeding routines, walks, exercise, playtime, basic training reinforcement, administering lots of love and attention, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I always make it a priority to provide dependable, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to each animal’s needs. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM. During the week, I’m available for evening walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and nighttime check-ins after work. My weekends are much more flexible, which allows me to provide more availability for pet sitting, extended visits, walks, and additional care as needed. I always do my best to be reliable, communicative, and accommodating to both pets and their owners. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make safety and comfort my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, medication routines, walking preferences, and household rules. I always make sure doors, gates, crates, and leashes are secure before and after walks or outdoor time. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and environment to help prevent accidents, stress, or unsafe situations. I also keep communication open by providing updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are safe and well cared for while they’re away. Because I have experience with both small and large breeds, I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and adapting care to each pet’s individual needs and personality.

We were away for 7 days and this was our first time using Rover. Our animals seemed well cared for and our home was how we left it. She sent updates and photos, which we appreciated very much! We will use her services again for future trips.

Kelly was very attentive to Myles and communicated with me every day. She kept house and home in order and I was very happy she could be here. Will definitely have her back when there is another need. Great job.
