“I was so worried about Simon but I came back from a 3week vacation and he was wonderful. I know this is because Alison took such good care of him. She was awesome. I would completely recommend her.”

“Heather was fantastic with my cats! She went the extra mile and took care of my cats as if they were her own. I will absolutely rebook her in the future!”

“Beth is great with our girls. Her communication is always timely. She’s so sweet and loves our girls like they are her own. Lilly our rescue warmed up to her quickly which is always a great sign!”

“Crista was great with our four cats! She accepted our last minute booking request and was very responsive throughout the entire stay. She followed the detailed instructions we gave her and provided updates and photos at each visit. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life and of all ages. but I have specifically taken care of puppies and middle age dogs. Those dogs I have worked with the most with. I had a senior dog in my household that I took care of until she unfortunately passed from cancer and I had administered medication to her and such. I have also taken in 2 foster dogs one with separation anxiety and other medication issues due to being in the shelter. I would have to give her medication and baths on the regular due to her having multiple accidents in her crate. With the second dog they were a 2 month old puppy that I fostered for a weekend and took to an adoption event where they had gotten adopted. I want to make sure all animals are loved and cared for while there owners are away and so that the owner don’t have to worry and know there fur babies are okay. I take care of my pets at home already so it’s really just a built in thing for my schedule. It’s an easy thing to do during the day or to end your day with as well so it all just fits in nicely. And who doesn’t want to end their day with some snuggles. I want to treat my clients pets how I would want my pets treated. I wouldn’t mind any them to be pushed to the side or just be let out and then leave I would want my pets to be played with and have some attention and love before heading out just so they know that someone is looking out for them until their owners are back
“Angel was super attentive to my cats while I was away, and coordinated with me through complicated travel schedules to make sure they would get the care that they need! I’m super thankful for her 💙”

“Corey is the best! He has been regularly dropping in on my two pups for a few weeks now and they absolutely love him. He is reliable, punctual, and just has a kind and calming presence. He knows and understands dogs well, and that experience shows. I would trust him with my pets any day!”


“Saul was really good with my cats and sent me timely updates. One of my cats is shy and hides away and he made sure she was doing ok every time he visited. Overall I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a nice person to look after their pets.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs for my entire life! I’m apart of several animal rescue organizations, so I’ve received special training on topics such as trauma-informed sheltering. I’m currently working full-time with a VERY flexible schedule. I work from home (downtown) for most of the week, and live close to the office. Your furry friends will receive a lot of attention from me while you’re away! I’m able to be in the home with your animal(s) for the majority of the time you’re away. I give them extra space for the first little bit, so they can get to know and trust me. Their happiness and comfort is extremely important to me!
“I cannot express how fantastic Anise has been! She recently watched my pups for a couple of nights while I went to a military training exercise and the amount of stress lifted off my shoulders with her care was immense! Communication was great and she went above and beyond in every aspect! I cannot recommend her enough for your animal care needs!!!”

“I had never utilized this app before so I was very scared at first but Sally made everything seamless. Very happy to have picked her to take care of my babies considering that cats are not the same as dogs. She immediately connected with them and I felt at easy while being away. She sent us pictures and updates every single day and was always quick to respond.”

About: I have dog sitted for close friends and work colleagues during graduate school. I am still new to dog sitting but I take direction very well and I am willing to learn new things and meet new people! I am currently a pharmacy resident and work mainly during the weekdays from 7am-5pm and work every other weekend starting this upcoming July. My availability for June is open during the afternoons and most early morning for weekdays and open on weekends! I make a point to follow instructions to a T, and if there are opportunities to go above and beyond, I will do so. If dog sitting, I make sure to give the utmost attention to your pet while also meeting your expectations. As for house sitting, I like to treat a home as if it were my own: tidy and organized.
“Taylor did an awesome job tending my cats while I was away! She followed all the instructions and sent many notes and updates. Taylor definitely loves pets and you can tell in the way she cares about taking care of them. I will definitely book again if she is available.”

“As always, Johnnisha has been a great support for our cat (and us, by extension) when we traveled. She is super thoughtful and accommodating, our cat adores her, and she always leaves us the cutest photos and videos!”

“Haley is an amazing sitter! She is very conscientious and communicative. It is easy to tell that she cares about the animals that she is watching - she goes above and beyond to make sure that they are safe and happy. Her communications are clear and helpful. I will certainly contact Haley the next time that I travel, and I recommend her highly to anyone in the Cincinnati OTR area.”

Angel is the best and will always be our go-to for all of our kitties!! We have 6 cats, some with bigger personalities, and she does so good taking care of them all and making sure each of them get attention. Angel took care of our kitties for 2 full weeks this time and did an amazing job, was communicative, and we came back to happy kitties and a clean house just the way we left it! Thanks, Angel!!

My lil man was so happy when I came home! Wolf is a great sitter and put my mind at ease while away with great communication and photo/written updates. I returned home to a place as clean as I'd left it so their cleanliness is appreciated! Thanks again, Wolf!

Hannah did great watching my cat while we were gone on a long vacation. She was able to find my cat even in her hiding places, and always sent a picture and update. She was easy to communicate with for dropping off keys, etc. I would definitely recommend her for your pet!!!

Absolutely fantastic experience with our pet sitter, Erika. She did an amazing job caring for my two cats, who are usually very wary of new people. By the end of her time with them, one of my cats even let her hold him which is a huge milestone and really shows how patient, calm, and gentle she was with both of them. Erika was very professional throughout, followed all instructions carefully, and always replied quickly, which really helped ease my stress while I was away. I felt completely confident knowing my two cats were in great hands. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

I always have a great experience Tanya taking care of my two playful cats! One of my cats requires medication, and she handles that with ease and care, which gives me so much peace of mind. It’s such a relief to know our pets are in good hands. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking again!

Anise is such an excellent sitter! This was my first time using Rover and Anise made me feel extremely comfortable leaving my cat in her care. She was communicative, took lots of pictures, and always went above and beyond to make sure my cat was getting enough attention.
