“Haley did an awesome job caring for my two cats while I was away. They were very shy at first but she persevered and they warmed up to her. I definitely will hire her again!”


“Britany was an amazing pet sitter. She came to our home twice a day for over a week. We have three kittens all under 1 year so there were some special instructions about feeding and keeping them apart at times. Britany went above and beyond to make sure all our cats had the care and attention they needed while we were gone. She gave detailed updates as well as included numerous photos after each scheduled visit. Once you meet her you know she has the biggest heart! We need to go out of town soon and plan to book Britany again!”


“We booked Leesa last minute to check in on our dogs so that we could go away for an overnight trip. We haven’t used a sitter outside of our family in a long time, but we’re happy to say that our boys have a new friend! We will definitely be booking Leesa for future trips!”


“She was amazing! Ivy can be a little bratty, but Emma was awesome and got her to warm up quickly! Will definitely rebook with her!!! Always prompt, kind, and caring!!!”


“Yolena was incredibly helpful and left robust notes at the end of her visit that left me feeling sure that my baby was well-taken care of. She communicated well and even helped with mail without being asked. Would highly recommend Yolena to any pet parent!”


“Abby is one of a kind! Our usual sitter was unavailable due to the holiday and we had to find someone last minute (I may have procrastinated a bit). Abby was more than willing to do so and was amazing at it! On time, great care of all pets and even filled out humidifier when it was running low! We will definitely recommend and be using Abby again!”


“Monroe has been great with checking on our cats! She always writes a great summary of each visit, and takes precious photos! We feel so confident that our cats are getting so much love when she comes to visit :) we are grateful for Monroe, and will definitely ask to book with her for our future travels!!”


“Sierra took great care of our 2 kitties and our turtle! We came home to a clean house, clean litter boxes, and plenty of food and water for everyone. We loved all the pictures she sent us each day as well. We would definitely hire Sierra again!”


About: I’ve loved and cared for a variety of animals throughout my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, a parakeet, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, fish, a bearded dragon, and a red tail boa. I LOVE animals. When I was a kid I would even spend my weekends at our local pet shop holding and playing with their animals. I am a mother of two teenagers, and have been a small business owner, so I am extremely responsible, reliable, caring, attentive to detail, and have the skills to do anything necessary to care for your pets. I am available most of the time, and my time is flexible. I recently sold my half of my small business and am now taking some time for myself (that I want to fill with animals!), so I am almost always available and flexible. We have a fenced in yard, but we also live in a beautiful historic neighborhood and love taking walks around the neighborhood and to the park as often as possible.

“This was my first time using Rover for my 2 dogs and Keira was Great! From my first request to the time she completed the drop in visits she was very professional. She was prompt with responding to me and extremely polite. I appreciated all the communication with updates and pictures. I will definitely ask Keira to help us again in the future.”


“Marisha has taken care of our 3 cats several times. She is conscientious and excellent at comminicating. She has also been willing to feed community cats (at our request) that stop by. She has gone above and beyond on a couple of occasions. I will hire her again.”


About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, from a 15lbs mini golden to a 130lbs mastiff. I love taking long walks no matter the weather (as long the dog is comfortable!) and have experience with senior dogs who require a lot of love and attention, and sometimes lots of medication. If your pet had specific needs, I can certainly make sure they’re taken care of the best way they can be! I have similar experience with cats, caring for teething kittens and senior cats who need extra attention. I love cats, but I understand sometimes they take longer to warm up. I don’t mind just hanging around until they feel comfortable enough to come up to me themselves. My number one priority is making sure your pet is comfortable and cared for. I’m a full time college student who’s lived in the Dayton area my whole life, allowing me to watch pets in the area year round (I’m a rising senior at the University of Dayton). I currently have an online internship, but it’s unpaid and I don’t get a lot of work to do. I have lots of time to devote to taking care of your critters. I’m willing to stay with pets for as long as they need, whether that means overnight or just some company during the day. I’m patient with pets that are wary of strangers; I do what I can to respect their boundaries. I will always wait until they’re comfortable enough to come up to me. I have a dog at home who is very nervous around new people. Because she’s so big we have to be very careful of how we introduce her to people. She’s a high maintenance lady, that’s for sure! But she loves just having company, and I know that many pets just want to have someone to be around.

“Great! I needed a dog walker unexpectedly and she responded immediately and walked my (very hard to manage) large puppy. I got a nice picture of my sweet and worn out puppy after her walk.”


About: I grew up around dogs, caring for all breeds and sizes. I am experienced in puppy care, senior dogs, and providing loving attention to every furry friend. With a flexible job and my law studies, I have plenty of free time to offer personalized care for your pet. I can easily adjust my schedule to provide walks, playtime, and attention whenever needed. I provide a safe, familiar environment by following your pet’s routine, ensuring their comfort and well-being. I’m careful with home safety and always keep you updated.

“I Highly recommend Abbi, she is very kind and understanding! I know she took good care of my kitties and they both loved her. Even the one who usually doesn’t come put for people let her hold him and cuddle.”


About: What sets me apart is my reliability, calm energy, and experience with pets of all ages and needs—including administering medication and caring for senior animals. As a full-time military member, I’m disciplined, trustworthy, and great at following routines, which pets really respond to. I don’t just “watch” pets—I bond with them. I pay close attention to their personalities and body language so I can make them feel safe, seen, and loved. Whether it’s a shy cat, an energetic puppy, or a dog that needs meds at a certain hour, I take pride in getting it right. As a full-time military member, I have a structured schedule that allows me to plan pet care in advance. I’m available for boarding on weekends and for evening drop-ins or walks during the week after 4:30 p.m. I’m reliable, punctual, and committed to making sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for your dog or cat to feel at home. While I don’t have a yard, I take pets on regular walks and give them lots of indoor playtime and attention. I’m comfortable with crates, giving medications, and maintaining routines that help pets feel secure and cared for.

Hunter L.
“I am so grateful to have found Hunter as a dog sitter for my pup! From the start, he made it clear that he was not only passionate about animals, but also genuinely dedicated to providing the best care. My dog, who can sometimes be a little shy with new people, immediately warmed up to Hunter, and that spoke volumes about his calm and caring demeanor. Hunter was incredibly reliable, always showing up exactly when he said he would, and never once missing a scheduled visit. During my time away, he communicated with me regularly—sending daily updates, pictures, and even videos of my dog enjoying walks and playtime. It was so reassuring to see how happy and well-cared-for my dog was in his company. What really stood out to me was Hunter's attention to detail. He took the time to learn my dog's specific needs—whether it was remembering her favorite toys, sticking to her usual routine, or making sure she got extra cuddles. It was obvious that he wasn’t just doing a job; he was genuinely passionate about making sure my dog felt safe and loved. When I returned, my dog was relaxed and happy, which is all I could have asked for. I felt completely confident that my dog had been in great hands the entire time. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and who communicates exceptionally well, Hunter is the sitter you want. I can’t thank him enough for his outstanding care and service!”
