1. Hannah O.

“Hannah was a godsend! At our first meet and greet Bentley took right to Hannah. It usually takes several visits before he even stops barking at visitors. I had peace of mind knowing that Bentley was going to be looked in on, fed and toileted. I especially liked pictures and the check in’s sent in my texts. I was able to vacation with no worries, enjoy myself and focus on new adventures with my daughter. I will definitely use Hannah again this summer. I’m so happy I found Rover!!”


2. Jaden W.
“Jaden has been a pet sitter for our dog and cats for the past year. She is extremely reliable. I left her instructions and she followed them all. We do not have the easiest animals to make up to, and Jaden tried her hardest and did her best. Each time, our pets got even more used to her and she eventually won them over. She did everything she was asked and always left the house in the same condition as when we left. I wanted her to call me if there were any problems, which she did, and together we solved them. She did everything from staying at the house and sleeping with our dog, to stopping by to let our dog out while we were out of town, to feeding and washing bowls, to taking our dog for a haircut, to cleaning litter boxes, cleaning bowls, letting cats in and out a couple of times a day. Anything I asked of her, she did. Her knowledge of animals made me more comfortable with leaving our pets in her care.She did everything I asked and really cared about our pets.”




3. Jamie H.


“Jamie helped us so much with a last minute booking to watch over our kitties while we were on vacation. Last minute flight cancellations and changes to schedules made it impossible for us to meet before, but she still stepped in with the videos and pics I was able to provide to take care of our fur babies on such short notice. Will be booking with Jamie again when we need the help!”


4. Kelsi L.


“Kelsi was so wonderful with Hamilton. She was quick to respond and didn’t mind when I had a last minute work change. She kept me updated with Hamilton and sent the cutest photos of my pup! I highly recommend her!”


5. Alyssa G.
“Alyssa is one of the most kind-hearted people I've ever met! She has a heart of gold and it's so big that she could love every animal in this world! She is also so responsible and would bend over backwards for her animals if necessary. I know the love she has for her own animals and I wouldn't doubt for one second that she wouldn't share that love with someone else's pets, too. I would trust her with my pets' lives in a heartbeat!”


6. KAREN M.

“Karen was great with Hammy! He loved her and so did we. I highly recommend her! She put us at ease and we trusted her completely!”


7. Ashley D.

“Ashley was on time and attentive to my timid cat. She refilled the necessities and within a week the cat warmed up for pets and a chat. Would hire Ashley again!”


8. Tayler A.

“Came for a meet and greet. Communicated well.”

10. Elena F.

“I'm so grateful I found Elena to visit my two cats while I was out of town. She's very responsible and punctual and a great communicator. I loved getting the pics of my kitties from her visits - they clearly enjoyed her love and attention.”

Whether it’s a quick drop-in visit or an engaging walk, I bring professional expertise and a genuine love for dogs to every interaction.

13. Kelly F.
“To Whom It May Concern, I highly recommend Kelly as a pet sitter. She has been taking care of my pets for the past few years, and I have always been impressed by her reliability, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. Whenever I go out of town, I trust Kelly to not only feed and walk my pets but also to provide them with the companionship and attention they need in my absence. She goes above and beyond to ensure my pets are happy and comfortable, and I never have to worry about their well-being while I'm away. Kelly is incredibly attentive to detail and always follows any specific instructions I provide regarding my pets' care. She is also quick to communicate any concerns or updates while I'm away, giving me peace of mind knowing that my pets are in good hands. I wholeheartedly endorse Kelly as a pet sitter for anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their beloved animals. Shaye J. Brunswick, Ohio”

About: I have had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of pets, (small, big, old, young, feisty, etc.), since I was a little girl. From walking to feeding and bathing, friends, family and neighbors have and continue to trust me with their furry friends. Additionally, I have years of experience watching children and am very good in trying situations. I currently work part-time Wednesdays-Saturdays, 11-3, so my schedule is wide open for taking care of your little friends. I have a car and am willing to drive a good distance, too:) Regardless of location, I like to make sure all pets are comfortable and have any toys, beds, treats, etc. that they require. I like to do whatever they like to do- throwing a ball around, going for a walk, playing with toys, (Please let me know if there is anything your pet particularly likes:). Additionally, I am meticulous when it comes to any and all instructions. In my neighborhood, we have a lot of pets being walked around all day long, so I like taking a walk to let the pets 'socialize'.

18. Kaylie J.
“Kaylie is really good with pets, with having the experience of three jobs working in the boarding and daycare industry. Also volunteering in the rescue facility for the Animal Protection League (APL). She’s gained 4+ years with all this experience dealing with all types of animals such as dogs, cats, and even gerbils. I think she’s a great companion to these animals and I see she really cares for them, especially with her own pets at home. She’s also learning something new everyday with being a full time online college student working on an Animal Health and Behavior degree that will help her reach her goals of being a Vet technician and becoming a rehabilitation specialist. I believe she is a good reliable person for this role.”
