Pet care experience

I'll play and run with your dog!

For first time customers on Rover get 20% off your first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/rowanl71649 I've been an owner of dogs (and cats) for almost my entire life and have pet/house sit on Rover since 2018. For house sitting I can feed your pets according to their diet and play with them so they don't get lonely. As long as you give me a list/schedule of what to do I'll do my best to provide it! In my 8 years of Rover I have looked after dogs, cats, bunnies and fish. If you have other animals that need care I'm open to looking after them too but you'll need to describe their care in more detail. I will do my best to make sure that your pet is having the best experience possible in my care. Just contact me if you need someone in the Cincinnati area to look after your pet!

Safety, trust & environment

I ask all of my clients to write up detailed directions of how they want me to care for their pet! This includes food, walks, medications, etc. I don't take client's dogs to dog parks (unless specified) and always make sure to keep the pets comfortable and happy. If you usually walk your dog off leash, make sure you provide a leash and collar for me because I don't do off leash walks with dogs.

Rowan is reliable, which is shockingly hard to find, and my dogs loved her.

Rowan took excellent care of our sweet pups! It truly was a blessing having full confidence in her and knowing our babies were in excellent hands!! First time on Rover. After reading reviews and placing a request for care with Rowan, she created a meet and greet which was priceless to our family! Our pups loved her! We highly recommend Rowan! She's amazing!!

Schedule

I'm a full time doctorate student at Mount St. Joseph University. My schedule is as follows: Spring Semester mid January to early May Monday-Friday: 8 am-5 pm Summer Semester mid-May to end of June: Widely variable - some days I'll only be school for a couple hours and some days I'll be busy from 8 am-5 pm. I'll let you know when you request dates! Early July-Mid November: I will be in clinicals ~8 hours a day. Exact hours TBD. Outside of those hours I am otherwise free to give your pet the attention they deserve. My class schedule can vary a bit, but generally those are the hours I won't be available.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Rowan can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
No specific breed preferences. Please let me know first if there are any medical or behavioral issues I need to be aware of. If you can fill out their pet profile and provide a picture that would be great as well. I am first come first serve! Unless you have a booking with me, your time slot is not guaranteed. I recommend you book at least a week before the start of the booking since I require a meet and greet in person before booking a new client. As long as you cancel a booking a week before the start date you'll get a full refund.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
