Pet Sitting in Oakwood

“I was nervous about using Rover and leaving my dog alone for the first time but Bradley made the process easy, comforting and will definitely be booking again. Overall he is great at communicating and is reliable.”

Alexa D.

“Absolutely loved her.It would absolutely use her again”

Tracy C.

“Valerie was absolutely wonderful!!! She FAR exceeded my expectations! She responded to my request within an hour and had excellent communication with me the entire time. My son is out of town and she went to his apartment to check on his cat, Luna. Luna is extremely shy and rarely comes out for anyone — she barely comes out for me — but Valerie was so patient and gentle with her. She stayed with Luna, sent me photos and updates, and even cleaned out a very unpleasant litter box that I truly didn’t expect anyone to deal with. That alone meant so much. You can immediately tell she has a genuine love for animals and such a kind, caring soul❤️. Valerie is recently retired and clearly does this because she truly loves animals, and it shows in the level of care she gives. I cannot say enough good things about her!! I will absolutely be using her again and again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and incredibly kind with their pets. 🐾❤️❤️❤️”

“Emma did such a wonderful job with drop in visits for my cats while I was out of town! One of my kitties needed extra special attention and some eye drops and she was so good with him and getting those done each visit throughout the day. She is excellent with the cats and they loved her. I highly recommend her.”

Emilie S.

“Jen is very patient and took her time getting to know my cats. She didn't rush them and they came around and got to know her. She is timely and took care of everything as requested.”

Deborah M.

“Monroe always goes above and beyond whenever our cats need tending to! It’s wonderful to have someone like Monroe to depend on when we’re gone for long periods!”

Ryan C.

“Sara has been great with my corgi, Cersei! She is always on time and has been incredibly flexible with my schedule. She is also very considerate with Cersei and accommodating to her needs for the past few months and Cersei loves her. She will continue to be my go-to whenever I need someone to help with Cersei.”

Danny M.

“Katie is great! Attentive and loving across the board ^_^”

Irene I.

“Cassie took such good care of our two dogs while we were out of town and even through power outages over the weekend she still came and took care of them in the dark. Will definitely be booking with her again when needed”

Seth K.

“Brooke was great! She came to meet the girls a few weeks in advance and the girls loved her right away. Poor Brooke was being tackled by them! Brooke was very responsive and kept us in the loop while we were gone with several photos. Really appreciated Brookes flexibility and willingness to meet out needs. Thanks Brooke and can’t wait to book you again.”

Elisabeth B.

“Beth is amazing! She clearly knows what she is talking about when it comes to puppies and dogs, and she even worked on some behavior and training with my puppy during her visit. Absolutely above and beyond my expectations; I am very thankful to have found Beth and will definitely be booking with her in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in grad school. Mainly took care of medium to large dogs, from puppies to 10+ years old. I have a 2 year old GSP named Miles who keeps me occupied most of the time. I work 7:30-3:30 most days during the week (regular full time job). But my weekends are usually open. I do quite a few different activities to keep my little guy occupied (and I think your pup will like them too). Activities include fetch, running, hiking, some scent work, etc. I have a 7 foot tall vinyl fence that my little guys loves to play in. I mostly keep hard chew toys around and plenty of treats.

About: I've had dogs ever since I was 10, but my experience with them goes far beyond that. When I was a little kid, before I ever had a dog, I would go to this read with a dog program called "Paws to Read." I would spend countless hours reading to the dogs and befriending them, along with a cat or two here and there. When I was 10, I got my first dog, a husky, and gave him a wonderful life. He had quite a few medical issues and behaved older for his age because of it, so I know how to provide senior pet care. He has since passed, but my two current dogs, one pitbull and one pitsky, remind me every day how important pets are to me. I've had them both for eight years now, during which we've taken numerous car rides, walks, enjoyed outside and inside playtime, movie nights, and anything a dog could dream of. Now, while I've never had a cat because of the majority of my family being allergic, I never turn away from a cat. I'm a regular at the Gem City Catfe, where I play with the cats often and have gone so often that they are comfortable with me. I keep cat and dog treats on me in case I come across a stray, because all cats and dogs deserve to feel some love. I've also dog-sat and house-sat for a few friends before, so I know how to handle situations like pets not getting along, bathroom accidents, and being a bit of a picky eater. Currently, I am a full time student and work full time at UDRI (UD's Research Institute) from 8:30am - 3:30am. During the summer I won't be taking any in person classes, just two online. But when I return to UD for my final year, I will be taking classes again and may be slightly more limited. When it comes to my pets and caring for clients pets, the comfort of the pet is most important to me. Personally, my two dogs don't get along with each other very well, so they typically have to be separated. Even so, I always make sure to treat them both equally and give them lots of love! If I take one for a car ride and ice cream, I bring ice cream back for the other and take the other for a car ride later that week. If my client has dogs similar to mine, who need to be separated, I would be sure to treat them equally and split my time with them according to my client's requests. Given single-pet households, I'd spend a lot of my time with them! In my downtime, I'd make sure to sit with them while I work on coursework. I'd be sure to take them on walks and go for potty breaks. And of course I'd make sure we get a lot of play time in and lots of love!

About: Volunteered at a pet shelter and cared for many different dogs with various needs and personalities. I looked after puppies, senior dogs, and even dogs with behavior issues, working alongside dog trainers who taught me how to read canine body language. Flexible student sitter available for walking and overnight boarding. Whether it’s a weekday trek or a weekend stay, my schedule allows me to prioritize your pup’s needs and exercise. I have a BIG fenced yard and two friendly dogs that can keep you dog company. I also have inside and outside cameras to always be able to check on the dogs.

“I Highly recommend Abbi, she is very kind and understanding! I know she took good care of my kitties and they both loved her. Even the one who usually doesn’t come put for people let her hold him and cuddle.”

Jill S.

“Thank you for your urgent response and helpful assistance!”

Tina B.

“Liesa was a wonderful drop in sitter for my fur babies. She showed up on time, followed instructions, stayed in communication and sent pictures. She was also very friendly and easy to work with”

Laura L.

“Amy is fantastic and you can tell she really loves animals. We felt very comfortable having her in our home and will book with her again! Dependable and good communicator!”

About: I started in the pet industry in 1999. I managed for Jacks Aquarium & Pets for 10 years. I was the livestock manager at Feeders Supply Fairborn. I also train Horses professionally and have been a member of the local dog obedience club. In addition to extensive training experience, I have a lot of medical experience and have no problem taking care of special needs animals. Also happy to sit for livestock and exotics. I train Horses full-time so my schedule is extremely flexible because I can book on days that are free. Whatever your pet needs I can accommodate. I provide safe positive compassionate handling. Pets in my care are happier and better handled when they leave me than when they began. Let me help you and your pet connect.

“Gracie was the first Rover we ever hired. I felt so much more comfortable when I read that she is working as a vet tech and is obtaining education for that field as well. Part of me doesn’t want to leave a review because I want to be able to book with her as much as possible haha. But she is such a kind person who genuinely cares for animals and would be such a great addition to your pet’s team. 10/10 recommend!”
