About: I've never not had a pet. I've had dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, hamsters, mice, chickens, turtles, ducks, snakes, and hermit crabs. I'll make sure your pet is happy, healthy, and loved. I love all animals. I have a flexible schedule based upon the needs of my furry clients. I am trying to build my business to full-time pet sitting. I can watch your pet once or on a regular basis. I am willing to care for your pet in your home. I currently have a dog that is unpredictable around other animals, and I will not bring pets around her until I can ensure their safety.
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve self-trained my own dogs and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, leave it, and leash manners (especially helpful for puppies and energetic dogs). I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures who requires medication, so I’m confident with administering meds and supporting pets with special routines or extra care needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly helped neighbors and friends with pet sitting and daily care. I’m attentive, calm, and safety-focused, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I also groom and bathe my own dogs, and while full grooming isn’t typically part of my services, I’m absolutely willing to help if an urgent situation arises. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of needs. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins, including hourly relief when needed, and I can do multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Because I’m home often, I’m also able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and routine support. Care looks a little different depending on whether I’m in your home or mine, but my top priorities are always safety, routine, and clear communication. I expect to communicate frequently during your pet's visit with me. In my home: For daycare or boarding, I require that dogs are crate trained, since dogs will be crated overnight and anytime I’m not home. I also require up-to-date vaccine records to keep everyone safe. I have two dogs of my own, so I carefully monitor introductions and compatibility. We do have a yard, but it is not fenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash. In your home: During our meet & greet, we’ll go over your pet’s routine in detail (feeding, potty breaks, walks, medication, etc.). I ask that any important care instructions are also listed in your pet’s Rover profile in writing, so everything is clear and consistent. I’m happy to follow your household routines as close as possible during the visit.
About: I grew up in a home full of animals, including three boxers, a pit bull, and cats all around! All of the animals i’ve owned have lived to senior ages, so I am aware of what may need done to love the older guys a little extra! I’m also aware of what puppy training or walking may look like. I’ve trained and raised three of my own dogs as well. I am currently working full time, but my hours may vary per day! I am available for dog walking/drop in visits early morning and afternoon/evening! Currently our day starts with a potty trip and around ten minutes of enrichment before going into kennels for work! Once I am home, we are at a park or on a walk daily! My girls eat once in the morning and once in the evening. Our evening then finishing with a final potty break and settling into bed!

About: I’m not sure that there’s one specific thing that would set me apart from other caregivers however, my best buddy Trouble crossed the rainbow bridge in February. Trouble was a 13 year old Weimaraner that my daughters & I rescued during Covid. Currently, Im not ready to be a dog mom just yet but I am ready to fill the empty space in my heart! I miss having a fur baby to walk with & playing in the yard. I have experience with large breeds , rescues, and seniors. I do work a full-time job Monday through Friday but I work a hybrid schedule & on the weekends I am an early riser so I could start as early as 5 AM. I am soon to be an empty nester and recently lost my fur baby. I am looking to keep busy with some new free time! In my clients home, I will care for their animals just as they do & keeping with their routine. If their dog needs belly rubs , quiet time, snuggling time & playing with & walking, I will do it all!
About: I provide a one on one Level of care and attention for your pet. Spending quality time with the pets is very important to me I currently work part time but have a flexible schedule. I am avaliable for Boarding at my home as well as drop in visits daily. I have a Freindly and playful Golden Retiever I like to give my full attention on your pet to make the stay/visit a enjoyable experience.
“Jasmine cared for my Zoey so well and is professional. The check in reports were so thorough, it brought me comfort while being away. I came home to a happy and stress free pup, which is telling! All care instructions were followed and it shows. We will be booking with Jasmine again.”


About: I’ve had pets all my life! Most recently I had a pitbull for 12 years and 2 cats for 15+. Sadly, all aged and passed away the past two years (I got them all young around the same time, bad idea since they tend to pass away so close to each other). Before I got my last dog, I fostered pitbulls who were good with cats for a couple years. My home is open and free for them to roam, and I’m well-equipped for big pitties trying to yank me around my large yard! My pitty had incontinence before he passed so I also am prepared for messes and spills. My home is ready and equipped for large dogs and for cats, since I kept everything from my last pets as I await being able to get my own again. I’ve also pet-sat for many of my friends when they leave town a when their dogs got along with mine! Now that I have none, I can offer solo or multiple dogs at once depending on your preference. I work part time, mostly from home. Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays I have a few hours of evening commitments but that’s it! I can usually come let animals out or feed them in the morning, afternoon, and evenings before bed unless I stay in your house, and then I can be there most of the day. I care for animals in my home as if they were mine! We wake up and have breakfast, go outside, and hangout around the house while I work. Lots of snuggles and pets! I let animals sleep in my bed if they want. If it’s your home, I’ll be able to meet the needs of your pet as described. I can crate if that’s desired, I have a large crate for large dogs!
About: I grew up with police dogs, so I'm really good with high-energy breeds and understanding dog behavior. I use positive training methods for puppies and give patient care to senior dogs. Apart from working a full time job as a healthcare professional, I have hours of spare time that I would love to dedicate to some furry friends! It is so important pets are in an environment where they are safe and stress free. I always make sure they're fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, and have a safe, clean space. Plus, lots of love and attention are super important for their well-being!
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was old enough to drive. I grew up with a house full of animals and have rescued several animals. I work evenings (two days from home, two days on-site in Akron) and have flexible days to allow for daytime walks or drop-ins and overnight stays. I do my best to communicate with the client to form a plan to best suit every pet and ensure the situation is as low-stress and high-fun for all involved!
About: I can follow feeding and medication routines accurately. I can read cats not just understand jmthem. I can provide a peaceful and calm experience. I know how to let them warm up to me at their own pace. I'm ok with dropping in 2x a day for a few hours each time, making house visits. Willing to stay for longer periods of times if needed. I give the the upmost quality care that I can. I like to treat pets as if they are family. I spend time with them.
“Really appreciate Pat helping us on short notice! She was fantastic with our rather timid and shy cat. Pat allowed our Bella to set the pace for interaction. Very attentive and took such good care with her. She even brought in an unexpected package. Very warm and caring lady. Will definitely use her services again.”


About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have grown up around dogs my whole life. I currently have two dogs at home, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals whether that’s going on walks, playing, giving attention and cuddles, or just keeping them company. I love all kinds of animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone else, so I always try to provide updates and make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable. My goal is to make your pet happy, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away! Experience: Lifelong experience caring for dogs and being around animals Have two dogs at home (used to have cats) and understand daily pet care routines Experienced with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving medications if needed Comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels Patient and attentive with shy, anxious, or high-energy pets Love spending quality time with animals and making them feel comfortable and cared for I’m currently a college student and will be a junior at Miami University this fall. Over the summer, I’m living at home with my family, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I work as an RBT, but I only work around 3 hours a day and I’m completely free on weekends, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and lots of attention throughout the day. Because of my flexible schedule, your pets won’t be left alone for long periods of time and will get plenty of care, playtime, and supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a safe, pet-friendly home with my family and have experience caring for animals with different personalities and energy levels. We have two friendly dogs at home, a Labradoodle and a Schnoodle, who get along very well with other animals. Our home also has a large open backyard with a pond, a front yard, and plenty of space for pets to play and explore safely. We also have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained or needs their own quiet space. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, and I will always treat your pet like part of the family. I’m responsible, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have lived with dogs and cats my whole life and now have my own golden retriever(she is very sweet and well trained). I am home most hours of the days and have all the the time to give your pets their needs and attention! My job I’m working now I am fully in charge of my schedule. I choose when I want to go in the day off. I only work 4 hours 2 or 3 times a week. I have a big house and a big fenced yard. In my family I have two very friendly dogs that are well trained and one cat. I have a gate in front of my room to let my cat be alone and feel safe from the dogs.

I am available for dog walking on weekdays during the late afternoon and evening and am also available on the weekends.

About: Hi! My name is Dayne, and I’m a 22 year old college football player with a lifelong love for animals. I’ve grown up around pets my entire life, and spending time with them has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Right now I have a German Shepherd and a Beagle, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I actually trained my German Shepherd myself from the time he was a puppy, and seeing him grow into such a well behaved, obedient dog has been incredibly rewarding. That experience taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and understanding how every dog learns a little differently. Being a college athlete has also taught me the importance of being dependable, responsible, and sticking to a routine. Those are qualities I bring with me whenever I’m taking care of someone else’s pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or just keeping your dog company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they’re getting the attention and care they deserve. I also have experience with more than just dogs. I grew up with an Umbrella Cockatoo that’s still part of my family’s life today, so I’m familiar with caring for birds. I also own a Bearded Dragon, which has given me experience caring for reptiles as well. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful because they’re family. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, make sure they feel safe and comfortable, and always follow your care instructions. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m a college football player, so all of my athletic commitments are done in the mornings. I also take all of my classes online, which gives me the rest of the day to fully focus on the dogs in my care. My schedule is very structured, and I’m home the majority of the day outside of morning workouts. My own dogs are properly exercised every single day. We go to the dog park, on long walks, and even hikes when the weather is nice. I make sure they are well run and mentally stimulated so they’re balanced and happy. They are fed twice a day with high quality dog food, and I stay consistent with their health needs. My German Shepherd gets joint supplements, and both my Shepherd and Beagle get salmon oil daily. I take their care seriously, and I would treat your dog the exact same way. Being an athlete, I’m already used to routine, discipline, and responsibility. That carries over into how I care for animals. Your dog won’t just be “watched” they’ll be exercised, cared for, and paid attention to. I live in a 1600 square foot home with plenty of space for dogs to move around comfortably. I have a large dog crate available if your dog is crate trained or needs their own quiet space. I also have two friendly, well socialized dogs who love to play and will keep your dog company. Safety is always my top priority. I’m experienced with large breeds and strong dogs, and I understand proper leash control, structure, and supervision. I keep a clean, organized home and always make sure dogs are monitored, comfortable, and secure. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone, and I don’t take that lightly.
About: All K9 Solutions is fully insured and licensed here in Akron OH. I've been training dogs for 6 years and professionally for 4 years. After I worked for reputable training companies, one here in Akron area as the head trainer, I decided to open my own company called All K9 Solutions. I grew up with dogs, and have experience with cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, chickens, and ducks as I used to manage a farm as well. I personally network all over the US with other dog trainers. One of my recent travels has been to Kansas to help host a working dog workshop with a few small departments. I have two Belgian malinois who I strive for their needs to be met daily. From mental stimulation to physical stimulation while giving them a “job”. My youngest is 3 years old and does many sports (PSA, AKC sports, and has been dabbling in odor work), and my oldest is 10, he’s a retired military explosives K9 who served on the boarder of Jordan up until 7 years old. Both the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. All of my dogs have off leash obedience training that is kept up with. I have a background in dog training, boarding, and daycare; from puppies all the way to seniors. I strive for knowledge with dogs as there’s always new information to learn and dogs aren’t cookie cutter. I’m also an STSK9 MVP student for advanced obedience. I’m very passionate about teaching others about dogs from genetics and breeds to how their psychology works. My business hours run from 7am-10pm. My availability is open from the afternoon to night time, this way all morning routines are completed, walks, potty breaks, feeding, training sessions etc. All dogs are boarded in a home environment instead of a facility. This way your dogs aren’t as stressed being away from you, and they can comfortably enjoy their vacation too. All dogs are kenneled to ensure safety (not investing anything they shouldn’t, no free roam 24/7 with other client’s dogs you don’t know, and they have their own space to decompress). Since the yard isn't fenced in, all dogs must be leashed with a properly fitted collar with a longline when going outside, a harness, or a slip lead. However, a good peaceful walk with all the smells is always more mental and physical stimulation for the dogs than a fenced in area with limited access. Reactive dogs and fearful dogs are welcome as I have years of experience with them, and training them to grow confidence and obedience. I also have experience with special need's animals. Loud dogs are welcome too. If your dog(s) show healthy body language and do well with other dogs, my two malinois are gentle beings and always love a play mate. Minka especially, she follows the other dog's pace and reads their body language. I do ask that you leave your vet information with me and emergency vet information as well for an emergency contact if ever need be. Better safe than sorry. I also do ask for a second choice of contact incase the primary owner is unable to be reached. All dogs must be up to date on vaccines and bordetella for boarding and daycare. Safety precautions are always taken. For the well being of the dogs and myself. Please note that I do require all important behaviors are made aware of by the owners before hand and I will notify owners upon any concern of sickness or bite risks. I send updates each day as well or will add photos to your rover card.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
