“she did a great job taking care of my cat while i was out of town, sent pictures of her, and had great communication!”


“Outstanding! So happy and relieved I have found Sumer to be my “Rover Girl” so I can leave my 3 precious dogs in good hands so I can travel more! Thank you so much!”


“Samantha did a great job checking in on our cat, Louie. On a previous vacation, he came to a cat with a UTI because the person we hired (not through Rover.com) did not clean his box properly. Samantha kept us up to date on how Louie was doing and kept his boxes clean. We came home from vacation to a happy and healthy cat. I will definitely use Samantha again!”


“Zachary has been so awesome to work with. He replied to me immediately and came to the house to meet my dogs, and they were instantly connected. I booked for a house visit while I am out of state but then my grandmother passed away and Zachary was so compassionate and able to book a few drop ins last minute. The dogs were so well taken care of and Zachary stayed in touch with updates the whole way. We can’t wait to have him back for the house sitting!”


“Cory was very attentive and thorough to the needs of my girls! The girls responded to her really well and was excited for her visit!!”


About: I am very good with reactive dogs, having had one myself. I have read up on animal first aid and training. Also having trained 3 dogs. Dogs are my life and I would do literally anything for them! I currently have both weekends and weekdays free. And available anytime, minus some doctors appointments! Looking for a new job currently so until then that won’t change! In my own home I have 2 dogs and a large fenced in yard. In your home, I will follow whatever rules you leave me!

“Chloe was outstanding and very sweet. The pictures from each visit were nice to see our two boys (dogs) warm up to her and likely get excited for her visits. Strong communication and frequent updates helped us relax on vacation knowing they were being taken care of. Highest possible recommendation! Thank you Chloe!!”


About: I’ve had animals in my life from the beginning. Right now I have 2 dogs, a cat, 2 Guinea pigs, and a fish :) I love caring for them and want to get back into walking, so this is perfect! I stay overnight to dog sit, so I have tons of experience! I’m a college student working part-time, so i would like to spend as much time as possible with your pets! As long as you let me know what’s up, I’d be happy to be of service :) I have a fenced in yard on a not-busy street, so the dogs can play (and even bark) freely as they please. I just want them to have fun!

About: Hi, I’m Brittany! With experience as a veterinary assistant, I bring skilled, loving care to every visit. I’m comfortable with senior pets, giving meds, and helping with basic puppy training. I’m also great with anxious animals and multi-pet homes. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, calm, and cared for—just like family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! As someone with a flexible schedule and a background in veterinary care, I make time every day to check in on pets, give them the attention they deserve, and stick to their routines. Whether it’s early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I’m happy to work around what’s best for your pet. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I follow your pet’s routine closely, keep their environment clean and stress-free, and always ensure doors, gates, and feeding instructions are double-checked. With my veterinary background, I’m also trained to notice subtle health or behavior changes. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities—and I always leave your home just as I found it.

About: I love animals of all kinds! At home, I have one dog, Stryker, one cat, Kimber, and two pet rats, Top and Henry. I have also previously had an aquarium with some tetra fish :) I am currently studying zoology, so I am always around animals of all shapes and sizes! From my schooling and previous work, I have experience with puppies, adult and senior dogs, small birds, cats, small mammals (ferrets, rats, mice, guinea pigs, hamsters and rabbits), goats, chicken, reptile, and some fish and amphibian experience. I also have experience with pets who have strict diets, medication, take live food, and other dietary issues. I am a full time student at Otterbein University, with a part time job on campus. I am available on weekends and most week nights. I am flexible and can work with you, so that we can find the perfect schedule for your furry friend! I am a reliable, responsible and respectful individual. My mission is to make your pet feel as loved by me as they do by you, while respecting your space, your rules and most importantly your pet!

“I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”

“Dory went above and beyond for our furry family members, staying around to ensure the pups were calm and safe feeling with all of the fireworks happening around the 4th of July. She was very prompt and dependable, and even freshened our duck’s water each day. She was a trooper during a power outage, and cleaned up an accident one of our older dogs had while we are away. She was very communicative and observant, and I felt she loved our girls just as much as we do. We highly recommend Dory! Th”

About: Iv worked with many breeds of dogs. Iv trained my own service dog and I’m working as an intern with a trainer to continue that journey. Iv interned at vets and can give oral and topical medications. My goal is to own my own day camp, training facility, sports facility for dogs in the future. I am a stay at home mom and can be available any day. During the week the longest the dogs are left alone are 1-3hrs. We have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room to roam and play. We have three large dogs, a hound mix, and English setter, and a German Shepherd. We have a two year old that loves dogs but understands the proper boundaries with them and even how to play ball with them. We do snuffle activities, leashed walks, free walks in our yard, fetch, tug, whatever your pup wants/needs we can and WILL provide it for them. Your pup will be treated with as much love and care as my pups receive!

“We started using rover because we got our new dachshund puppy a few weeks ago. We wanted someone to help us keep up with his training when we both worked. Jade has been such a big help with Murphy’s training! She’s gone above and beyond what we expected of her and we are excited to keep having her help us! She’s great!”


“Kyndal was very kind and actually met both my babies which normally they would hide. The only thing she didn’t do was clean out their food bowls from previous feed. Otherwise, I was very comfortable in knowing my kitties were taken care of.”


“John R. was great!! He had a challenge with our youngest fur baby since she was in a cage and was timid but they warmed up together. He checked into my Senior pups as well. They were his friend and favorite immediately. John is great! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!”
