About: Since I’ve been born my family has always had a dog and cat in the house. I’ve previously taken care of pets of friends and family members and am looking to help others by loving their pets like they’re my own. I currently work from home and have the flexibility to play with, feed, walk, etc your pet at any time of day, any day of the week. I can easily crate your dog if needed. We also have pet gates up in our home to prevent your dog from getting into anything they shouldn’t be in.

About: I was a registered veterinary technician working in a small and large animal clinic back in Ohio. I have a fenced in yard at my house with room to play and can give frequent potty breaks. I do have a 13yo Chihuahua and a 3yo golden retriever. They are both dog and cat friendly! I do have 2 little kids at home with me, so I do need your pets to be kid friendly. I'm a stay at home mom now so I'm able to give your pet full attention. I'm able to follow and understand any diet restrictions or medications your pet may have. I can provide you pictures and texts about your pet while you're gone for peace of mind! I'm a stay at home mom and my oldest is homeschooled so I am home often. I went to school to be a veterinary technician and worked on a clinic for a couple years before starting our family. I treat the pets I watch like my own! They are allowed on the furniture and bed, if that's what they like. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run.

6. Lisa E.

“Lisa was awesome! We needed a pet sitter for a day and needed to pick Koda up late at night which Lisa made possible. Even though it was only for the day she updated us with pictures of our pup enjoying her huge fenced in yard. Koda was exhausted by the end of the day and came home and instantly fell asleep. We would definitely recommend Lisa!!”

15. Richardine L.

“This was my very first-time using Rover, and when I say I am overly pleased. Richardine is AWESOME! I was so nervous to use the service because I had just had a pup pass away, and I did not know what I was going to do going forward. I did a meet and greet with Richardine, and I knew at that moment, my pup will be with Richardine each time I will need a sitter. Very personable, reliable, and made sure I received photos throughout the day to let me know what my pup was doing. Once I picked my pup up, she was playing, and happy. I am truly overjoyed with the service that I received. Thank you so much Richardine, and I will see you very soon. Latisha M.”

“Izabela was great ! She provided updates and pictures. Will definitely rebook with her!”


17. Angela Y.
“Angela is beyond amazing with my beagle! She is attentive , caring and is extremely patient with him (he is a bit stubborn). She took the time to learn his routine and he absolutely loves seeing her. Anytime she is around he is always running up to her to be petted and for extra snuggles. She is punctual every time she is needed and always leaves everything clean (water bowls, treat jar, leashes in their place etc.). I would highly recommend Angela as your pet caregiver. She is absolutely amazing!”
