“Jennifer did a great job watching my high energy puppy over an extended weekend. She sent plenty of picture updates and followed his schedule perfectly. It was great being able to leave my dog with such a capable sitter.”



“Drew is an amazing animal lover. Our cavalier, golden retriever and 2 cats absolutely adored him. He sent pictures and was always available when I wanted to talk about the animals. We even FaceTimed the animals when we were in Europe. It is the details that make him someone you want to hire. He made sure our house was safe and extremely clean. Our animals already miss him. We will definitely be hiring him again. Thank you DREW!”

“Jennifer did a wonderful job watching our two dogs in our home. She had great communication and took plenty of pics which ensured us our fur babies were well taken care of. She was polite and thoughtful! We highly recommend and would love to have her stay again!”

“I’m so happy I found Jenna on Rover.com. Jenna is reliable, friendly and takes great care of my two Goldendoodles and she leaves my house in perfect condition after a visit. My pups love her and knowing that they’re both being taking care of in my own home with Jenna gives me peace of mind.”

“We appreciated Becca’s willingness to send photos of the pups and update us with easy communication on how they were doing. Becca is sweet and took great care of our pup girls and our hone while we were away!”


“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”


About: What Sets Me Apart in Pet Sitting Services: ✅ Cat-Centric Experience – Many sitters focus on dogs, but I specialize in feline care. I understand cat behavior, body language, and how to build trust—even with shy or anxious cats. ✅ Personalized Attention – I don’t just “check in”—I engage. Each visit is tailored to your pet’s specific needs, routines, and personality. ✅ Reliable & Communicative – You’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I send consistent updates, photos, and even videos, so you stay connected while you’re away. ✅ Medication & Special Care Expertise – Comfortable administering oral medication, eye drops, or specialized care for senior or special-needs pets. ✅ Calm & Trustworthy Presence – Animals (especially cats!) respond best to calm energy and a gentle approach. I pride myself on being a steady, stress-free presence in your pet’s routine. ✅ Respect for Your Home – I treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pets—leaving it tidy, secure, and exactly as you left it. I currently work full time, 2 off days typically during the week. I can come early in the mornings before work to feed/let dogs out. Then in the afternoon I can come back walk dogs/play with pets and feed them. I do not offer care for pets in my house. I only offer pet sitting at a clients house. Let me know if you have any questions.

“Lynn was absolutely amazing with Rue and Walker. I loved seeing pictures of them every day, along with check-ins and great communication! I would love to have Lynn watch my pups again! ❤️”


“This was our first ever dog sitting experience and I must say Angela made it super easy and rest assured. She staid at our home with our two dogs. She kept us updated with messages and pictures. The dogs loved her. And we will definitely use her services again in the future.”


“This review is going to be unlike most reviews you read on here. Sure, Megan played with my dog and took pictures and videos. Megan did much more, she most likely saved my dog's life. Our sweet little Winnie is your typical knuckleheaded Pitbull who ate part of a ball the day before we left. Megan updated us every time she got sick and her eventual listlessness. Megan was concerned, as were we. A family member got Winnie to the vet and as suspected a total obstruction of the large intestine with about 6 hours to live. All turned out well thanks to Megan being on top of her dog watching game, she undoubtedly saved Winnie's life.”


“I LOVE TORYN! And more importantly, my doggy did! She treated my dog and my home like it was her own. I received so many updates and photos and never worried once while I was out of town. Toryn went above and beyond! I will be using her again. She’s the absolute greatest.”


“Diane is great! I have used her for a few drop-in visits, but this was the first overnight. As usual communication was good. She sent lots of updates and photos. I felt comfortable leaving her in my home with my pups and would definitely have her stay again!”


“Tara is the absolute best. We have left our high maintenance senior dogs in her care for multiple trips out of town, and every time she goes above and beyond to care for them (and our home). Cannot recommend her strongly enough.”


About: Hi there! I spent several years dog sitting after college as a fun (and furry) side hustle, and I’m excited to be getting back into it. I lost my own pup last year and really miss having a dog around, so I’m looking forward to giving your four-legged family members all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. While I’m more experienced with dogs, I’ve been around cats plenty and know how to respect their space—or shower them with affection, if that’s their vibe. You can count on me for regular updates, lots of love, and reliable care. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’m happy to chat! I work from home most Monday’s and Fridays, which means I’m typically available for mid-day check-ins those days. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I commute to my office in Blue Ash, so I’m not available during the middle of the day—but I’m up early and can do morning and evening visits. I’m also fully available on weekends and happy to provide care throughout the day. Just let me know what your pet needs and we’ll make it work! I don’t host pets in my home due to having a roommate, but I’m happy to care for your pets in their own space—where they’re most comfortable. I’ll do my best to keep their routine consistent, make sure they’re well-fed, and of course, shower them with love and attention. You can count on me to treat your home and your pets with respect and care.

About: Hi, I’m Angel! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I can’t imagine a home without them. I have two cats - Sasha, a gentle fluffball, and Bane, a clever foodie with a playful streak. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to shy senior cats. When you’re away, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for just as if they were my own. Whether that means daily walks, play sessions, cuddle time, or just keeping them company, I adapt to their needs and your routine. Your pets’ happiness and well-being will always be my top priority. I’m a college student in Dayton, and I make time between classes to care for pets. I’m available on Sundays, Saturdays, Thursdays, and Tuesday evenings for walks, drop-ins, or playtime. Whether it’s feeding, exercise, or cuddles, I’m happy to fit pet care into my weekly routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention and exercise. I’m happy to handle walks, litter box cleaning, or any special instructions you have. I also give extra love and reassurance so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away.

“Emma did an excellent job watching our three dogs while we were away. She was a great communicator throughout the entire time, keeping us updated and sending photos, which really helped put our minds at ease. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home.”

“Natalie B has walked my dog once a week for nearly a year! Additionally, she stays at my home when I travel to care for my rambunctious, lovable mixed breed shepherd. Natalie is a wonderful human!
