“Connie was great with my little man. She went to my house on her lunches to be with him. Sent me pictures and videos. I could tell he was always having fun and being well cared for. I will definitely have her watch him again.”
“Kyle took outstanding care of Archie and Rhea (and kept a watchful eye on our home) while we were on vacation. He asked thoughtful questions and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, both pets were happy, healthy, and clearly well-adjusted. Archie and Rhea absolutely adore Kyle—I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again for future trips.”

About: We currently have a german shepherd named Hydra. Our other shepherd passed away at 14 years old. I've taken care of other pets before as I had rover in the past. In my past experience, I worked at Camp Bow Wow and volunteered at Cleveland Animal Shelter. I also sit family member pets as well from time to time. I love to be active on my weekends off. I currently take care of my own dog and my boyfriends dog with other pets as well. I live in a house with an unfenced yard. I provide toys, food, for pets with no charge. Are allowed to sleep anywhere unless preferred crated. I can provide loving comfort and companionship. I keep everything clean and organized. My current schedule is open all day every week. I'm a stay at home online student. I am home full time since recently i moved to my parents place and am going to school online so i will have time all day to take care of your little one. I currently have pets of my own but would love to have more fur babies around I have an fenced yard.I can let them as much as needed. I have 2 dogs and a cat. They are very friendly and will not bother any of your fur babies. I have a dog door there well trained to come back indoors and does not require a leash. Cat lounges around in the cat tree peacefully. Have bunch of toys to play with. My babies eat at the same times, 6am in the morning and 7pm at night.
“I quite literally could not say enough wonderful things about my experience using Kristen to housesit for me and my fur babies while I was out of town. I am so particular about who I let watch them when I am gone and she exceeded ALL expectations.”

“Gina is thoughtful, thorough and our 10-year-old rescue pup warmed to her very quickly. Gina sent daily photos and we’ve already booked our next visit with her. Thank you, Gina. It’s so reassuring to have you watching over our home and our furry family.”

“Morena stayed at our house while we were on vacation. She was extremely friendly, provided lots of updates and we arrived home to a clean house. We will definitely use Morena in the future.”

“Emmalee watched my senior dog for a week and was extremely helpful, kind and patient with her. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog (a great pyrenees mix) in her care and my dog enjoyed her time with Emmalee also :) Thank you, Emmalee!”

“Averi was wonderful for our two dogs and Guinea pigs. Everyone was well taken care of and Averi watched out for them every step of the way and the animals loved her as much as we do!”

“Not surprising Cassie was absolutely wonderful with our boys! I think they had a way better weekend than us with her. She is so attentive and a great communicator and we are truly lucky to have found her!”

“Darien took care of my two dogs and stayed in my home. She sent pictures and status updates daily. She is very professional, and was great with the dogs. She put my mind at ease knowing she was caring for my special dogs while away. I highly recommend!”

About: I have been dog-sitting since I was 13 years old. I have experience with young and old and everything in between, as well as dogs with anxiety. I also have experience with providing medication to dogs. I like to stay in communication with the families while they are away and send lots of pictures/updates, because I know it's stressful being away from their babies. I am a full-time graduate student, so I spend most of my free time studying. I don't currently have any pets with me, so I decided to sign up for Rover to fill some of my time with animals and help care for them! This is a perfect side gig for me as it allows me to study while I hang out with your pets and take study breaks to play with them and take walks! I will not be able to care for pets in my own home, as my apartment does not allow pets. In my client's home, I always make sure I know where everything is for the pet(s) and have all the contact information I need should anything happen while you are away. I like to keep my own apartment tidy, so I ensure that I do the same in other people's homes and I will clean up after myself and the pet(s).
About: I love every animal big or small. I have taken care of friends and family pets for several years and I absolutely love it! I just want everyone to have a peace of mind knowing their fur babies are being loved and taken care of. I unfortunately will not take care of reptiles (depending what type) or spiders. I work full time and can go to your pets before and after work. If I stay in you're home I will be there in the mornings and at night so your pet will not be alone. Unfortunately I will not be able to travel more then 20 or 25 mins away from my full time job. I care for my pets like I would a child. I make sure they always have plenty of food, water and outside time. Also plenty of beds/bankets around for them to lay in as like. Plenty of treats and cuddle time as well. I will take of any pet like they are my own.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life- mostly small and medium sized. I have taken care of puppies as well as senior dogs. I was also a secondary sitter for OSU 4Paws during my time at Ohio State! I love spending time with dogs and look forward to meeting more! I am a recent college graduate living at home with plenty of time and love to give to your furry family member. I currently work a 9–5 job, but I’m available in the evenings and overnight to make sure your dog feels safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, long evening walks, or sticking to their regular bedtime routine, I’ll treat your pup like my own! I know how important consistency and trust are when it comes to pet care, so you can count on me to follow your instructions closely, keep your home tidy, and send you updates and pictures along the way. I’d be happy to stay at your house overnight so your pet has company, comfort, and a familiar environment.
About: I’ve had a pet growing up in my household since I could remember. I’ve dog sat for numerous people including family and friends. When dog sitting, they rely on me to let their animals out, feed them, walk and bathe them if needed. I currently am a full time college student and working in fast food part time. Between my work schedule and school schedule, I’m busy but love to stay active and help out whenever and whomever I can! I love to play and spend time with animals to make sure they are not alone! If that involves playing fetch or some belly rubs, I’m all up for it!
“Kylie was fantastic with our girls. We are always apprehensive when having someone new in our home and taking care of our girls but Kylie was absolutely fantastic. We’ve already booked her for another weekend.”

About: I am 22 years old and have lived with pets my whole life growing up. I often watch pets for my friends and relatives, and am looking to turn it into a side gig. I am a college but I only have classes three days a week and I am willing to stay over night to watch the animals. When not at class I am very flexible. I take care of pets in my home and my clients home by loving them as if they were my own. I very much love animals and get along with them very well!
“Laura was great!! Good communication always answered text properly. Very organized and keeps her Commitment’s. She stayed with Penny and took such good care of her. Sent me photos and text up dates. Got packages off the porch and pulled the garbage can in. She’s wonderful!!!”

“What a life save Chasity was with last minute booking to take care of Riley in our home. She was very responsive when I reached out to her about watching Riley. Arrived at our home when she said she would be here. Riley warmed up to her very quickly and I received texts and pictures of how Riley was doing. Looking forward to using Chasity again to dog sit Miss Riley!”

“Helena did a wonderful job with our girls. She seemed so loving and caring towards them and they got a lot of snuggles which makes them so happy. They really seemed to love her and we got lots of pictures while we were gone. We have one pup that needs medication which she had no problem with. It was nice to know our babies were well taken care of and getting loved on. There was also a lot of rain and mud in our back yard and you wouldn’t even be able to tell, she took really great care of the house as well. We even had some unexpected drop ins for construction that was happening outside and she handled it all perfectly. We will absolutely be calling her next time we go out of town!”
