“Teagan was amazing! We were nervous about finding a last minute Rover but Teagan took all of our worries away with the respect and love she showed my dogs and my house! I will be going to Teagan for future bookings! ☺️”


“Dawn always helps us when we travel. Our dog adores her. The house is always in order after she’s been there. She’s easy to communicate with, responds quickly, and comes to the rescue even if my trip lasts an extra unplanned day. The best sitter for our dog. I always feel at ease when she’s with Dawn.”


“Jess was an AWESOME day sitter. Communication was top notch, and they provided us with lots of pictures and videos. We knew our pup was safe and well loved all day. Will be booking again!”


About: Welcome to our cozy pet boarding service! We provide a safe and loving environment for your furry friends while you're away. With multiple cats of our own, we understand the unique needs of feline companions. Our spacious and comfortable accommodations ensure that your pets feel right at home. We offer personalized care, playtime, and plenty of cuddles to keep them happy and entertained. Trust us to treat your pets like family! I have a job where I can pick my own hours and work for myself so I can watch pets anytime and be there for them whenever I need. I take very good care of pets in my home. I treat them as if they are my own. They have a large space to explore and run around in. Although I do not have a fenced in yard, I have absolutely no problem taking them out on a leash to go potty or even a park.

“Mark was amazing with our two dogs. Our dogs went on several long walks, enjoyed playing in the back yard with their Mark’s dog and loved all the lap time and belly rubs that Mark gave them. Mark was great with sending pictures and videos of our puppies while we were gone, too. We’ll definitely pick Mark again and we’d highly recommend Mark to you.”


“Evie did an amazing job taking care of our two Frenchie and cat over the holiday weekend. Our house was clean and everything was in order. We would definitely hire her again!”


About: I have experience cat and dog sitting for various breeds and ages, and have been doing this for most of my adult life—I love it. From taking your dogs on walks, staying over night with your kitties or puppies, or even taking care of them when they are sick (I have experience with diabetic cats), I would love to make sure your pet is taken care of just as you would yourself. I’ve dealt with rambunctious wire hairs, skittish kittens, and everything in between. I am so excited to meet your favorite doggo or kitto and love on them! I currently work a full-time 9-5 job. When it comes to drop-ins and walks I am available before 8:30 am and after 5:30 pm during the week. My schedule on the weekends is more open. When housesitting I am available to stay overnight for as long as needed, but do want owners aware of my work schedule to make sure it will work for them and their animals. However you choose for me to care for your pets inside your home I am ready and prepared to do! I love cuddling with your pets and making sure they are as comfortable as possible while you are away. All I ask is for clear instructions so I can keep your fur baby’s schedule and environment as consistent as possible.

“Margaret followed instructions perfectly. She did everything we asked of her. She was on time and gave our dogs a lot of attention. They seem to be very happy with her. Will definitely recommend her in the future.”


About: I have always had a love for animals. My husband calls me Snow White because even ducks follow me. Everywhere I go animals follow me. I am a stay at home mom so I can devote all my attention to the fur babies. Your babies are my babies under my watch. I will take care of them like they are one of my babies. I currently have two tea cup pups and a shih Tzu mix. I have a fenced in yard and am home to take of them constantly. I have two tea cup pups and a shih Tzu mix

“Claire was great! She stayed at our home for the weekend and took great care of our 1.5 year old Boston. We loved getting photos and videos throughout the weekend of our pup. This was our first Rover experience and Claire made it very smooth and worry free! ?”


“Kinsey was fantastic with Spence. Sent lots of pictures. Very respectful of our home and played with Spence. We came home to a very happy boy.”


About: Since I was a child I gravitated towards animals. I would make my mom stop the car when we were out if I saw a dog roaming without its person and we’d spend the rest of the day solving who it belonged to. Once I was old enough to pet sit I started watching the cats and dogs of family, friends, and those in my neighborhood. I also volunteered at the our local Humane Society in high school. I grew up with dogs my whole life and have my own black lab named Nala. I also have lived with cats the past 3 years. Your pets are your family and I understand that. I work a 8:30am-4:30pm job currently, so Monday to Friday I am available after 5pm and fully open on weekends. I have 2 dogs that I take care of with my family so when my services are needed with another fur baby I am to do so. I feed my pets twice a day on a schedule, during the week they have a meal at 8am and another at 5pm. On the weekends they eat at 9am and 5pm. I let them out multiple times a day and walk them one a day. For me routine is important and helps our pets feel good day to day. I can provide services for very low to high energy pets or pets with specific routines when extra instructions are provided. Every pet is different and as the owner you know best how I can give your pet what they need!

“Ashlyn was excellent with our 3 dogs and our house! 2 big, rambunctious dogs and a small breed with a big personality! She took great care giving one dog meds, walking, playing, feeding, etc. We will definitely book again. Our dogs were looking for her even when we got home. Highly recommend!”


“Wendy did a great job with my boys!! She followed my instructions to the T and asked questions when she wasn’t sure. My boys were happy and healthy when I got home. They were sad to see her go! I will book with Wendy again!”


“Sheila was AMAZING, I can’t recommend her enough! I was nervous to leave Cricket for a trip and Sheila went above and beyond to make sure Cricket was taken care of and loved on! We will absolutely be rebooking and I can’t brag enough about how wonderful our experience was!”


“she was great”


About: I took care of a miniature dachshund growing up however I also dog sat a Great Dane who was later in life and had many health issues. I’m confident to deal with any issues or complications regarding your specific friend with a tail I am currently in Grad school and having a dog of my own isn’t in the cards right now so getting to walk and enjoy other people’s dogs makes my weeks a little bit brighter. I want the animals to feel like I’m part of the family and the routine. I want to feed them on time I want to be there to play with them. They deserve to feel comfortable and excited when I come over and watch them.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong love for dogs, hands-on experience with pets of all ages, and my dependable, personalized care. I grew up with four energetic huskies, so I’m no stranger to high energy breeds and the importance of consistency. I now have a dachshund puppy of my own, so I’m also familiar with the patience and training that puppies need. In addition to caring for my own pets, I work for a private pet care company in Perrysburg, where I’ve gained even more experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. This includes senior dogs who need a gentler touch and extra attention. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pup needs playtime, a calm walk, or just someone to hang out with, I’m here to make sure their tail keeps wagging. Pet care fits in my routine naturally because I currently have a very open schedule and no full-time job. I only do dog walks for a few hours on occasional days through a private pet care company, so I have plenty of flexibility to dedicate time and attention to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a midday walk, an overnight stay, or regular drop-ins, I’m able to adjust my routine to match yours. My open availability also means I can be there for last minute bookings or unexpected schedule changes! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and consistency. I always take the time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions—like feeding schedules, medication needs, or favorite toys. In your home, I respect your space and keep everything as close to your normal routine as possible, giving your pet the comfort of familiar surroundings. In my home, pets get a quiet, cozy environment with lots of attention, playtime, and snuggles. I make sure they get bathroom breaks, exercise, and enrichment suited to their age and energy level. I also provide regular updates, so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

“She spent the evening with my pup when I had something come up last minute. my dog really enjoyed the time they spent together, I had no issues and hope to be able to book her again!”

Seth P.
“Seth was an absolutely wonderful dog walker for our mini dachshund, Sassy. She’s a bit particular and not always the easiest pup to win over, but Seth was incredibly patient, kind, and reliable—and she quickly became excited for their walks together. He communicated regularly, sent updates and photos, and always treated Sassy like one of his own. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We would highly recommend Seth to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”


Olivia L.
“We found Liv last year and can’t imagine leaving town without her now. We’ve got three Frenchies who are super sensitive and don’t warm up to people quickly—but Liv just gets them. She’s gentle, calm, and totally in tune with each of them. The youngest of ours hides from everyone, but she had him curled up next to her by the second visit. Which is unheard of from him! She’s reliable, easy to communicate with, and super respectful of our home. We always come back to happy pups and a spotless place. Total peace of mind every time, we’re so glad we found her!”

Wendy dog-sat for me while I was in town for a family wedding. She was very communicative and responsive from the point of reservation through the visit. I was able to relax and enjoy the event knowing my pups were in good hands. I'd recommend Wendy and would book her again when I'm in town.
