“We had a few hours in Cincinnati before a flight out and we decided to visit the zoo. Unfortunately our fur baby was not allowed so we decided to put her in the care of Lisa for a few hours. As we don’t live here, Lisa was the best option and I’m so happy to have found her on Rover. From day 1 she was extremely responsive and patient. On drop off day she was ready and waiting for us. For the few hours our baby was with her she communicated with us and updated us with photos of her. Super happy with her service and her genuine care. We were able to enjoy our time at the zoo knowing our baby was in good hands. Pick up was easy as well, she met us outside and gave us a report of her activities. Anytime we are ever back in Cincinnati and need a day care or bakrdinf service I will not hesitate to request Lisa’s services.”

“John took great care of our shih tzu Chewie in his home for 2 days. We were able to drop her off and pick her back up each day so we could do vacation activities without having to worry about a hot car and then she could spend the nights with us at the hotel. Thanks John, great job!”

“Akita is professional, very responsive and amazing! My fur baby felt at home immediately. He even ate his food which he never does when he’s away from home. She was so accommodating and did such a wonderful job taking him on plenty of walks and potty breaks! He was so excited for day 2 daycare. I’m so happy I found a forever sitter for my baby! Thank you Akita!”

“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs as small as Chihuahuas and as large as Great Danes so I’m happy to accommodate dogs of any size and breed. I’ve had the opportunity to foster over a dozen strays with less than desirable beginnings, but I believe all pets can reach their full potential with love and attention. I’m high energy and active so I’ll take your dog for long walks if he or she is up for it. I have a flexible schedule so happy to work around your needs. I currently work from home and love breaking up my routine with caring for animals. Your pet would be a welcome addition to my day! Trust between a pet owner and sitter is essential and I’m always happy to do a test run before committing to any service, whether at my home or at yours.

About: Hello! I’m excited to meet your furry babies! I’ve had the joy of rescuing 15 dogs and 10 cats throughout my life. My family has banned me from volunteering at the shelter after I foster failed our three rescue pitties, all from Cincinnati Animal CARE. Currently, my home includes our three dogs, two cats, and a bearded dragon. My consulting business (nonprofit leadership and management) allows me to work from home and enjoy a flexible schedule. As a new empty nester, I have free time that I'd love to fill caring for your babies. I have experience caring for pets of all ages— from playful puppies and kittens to loving seniors. I can assist with everything from potty training and medication administration to wound care. As a responsible professional and avid pet lover, I promise to treat your pets as if they were my own! 🐶🐱 I work from home and am available 24/7 to care for your pets. With dogs of our own, our routine is perfectly set up for all potty, feeding, playing, and sleeping needs. In our house, pets reign supreme! I have a fenced yard and three friendly and playful dogs who will keep your pup company. I'm happiest when I have a dog snuggling next to me on the couch or a cat on my lap, and your pets will be well loved.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and truly adore them! From playful puppies to senior dogs with special needs, I have experience providing the love, patience, and attention every pup deserves. My goal is to keep your pets happy, healthy, and comfortable while you’re away. I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule as my classes are online, so my availability is widely open to your pets needs! Every pet and household is unique, so I always take the time to learn your dog’s specific routine and preferences. This ensures your pup feels safe and cared for, and your home is respected as well.

About: (Pet weight limit 0-25) - Experienced care with pugs, bulldogs, etc. I’ve had dogs and pets my whole life, so taking care of animals just comes naturally to me. In high school, I started a small neighborhood business walking and washing dogs, and I loved it. Since moving to Cincinnati for college, I’ve been volunteering at the local shelter where I take dogs out on day trips and help them get some extra love and attention. This past summer, I worked at a dog boarding business where I looked after all kinds of pets every day. I really love being around animals and treat every one of them like my own! 🩷 I only work a couple days a week for just a few hours, so I have plenty of time to hang out, play, and give your pup all the attention they need! I’m flexible with scheduling and happy to adjust for walks, drop-ins, or boarding when needed. I live in an apartment with lots of great walking areas nearby, especially around campus. I love letting dogs feel at home—whether that means cuddling on the couch or sleeping in bed with me. If your dog prefers or needs to be crated, I can easily do that too. I always make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable.

About: I’ve taken care of pets of many kinds since I could remember. Friends, Family, neighbors have all relied on me to walk, bath, and feed their pets. Plus I love animals and helping everyone or anyone I can :) I’m currently working part time but I’ll still have time to play with your fur baby anytime just shoot me a message and we could make it work any day turn the week or month. I also take future booking if you need a dog sitter/house sitter in a couple months or so as well. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company and I can crate your dog if it is needed

About: Early 40’s year old sitter/walker with car. You could say I have 40+ years of experience. My family had a German Shepherd from before I was born and I was very close to her. There has been a stream of pets in my family. Including so so so many cats in NYC. Even going so far as to “rescue” a half feral one. Currently, I share ownership of a dog. As a small business owner of over 10 years, I am able to have a flexible schedule and spend more time hanging out with your pet(s). That said, I have a lot of experience managing other people, and I do have high expectations for clear communication from clients. I have never had a complaint from clients that already have human children. I am very clear about the kind of care I offer. For example, I clearly state I can do 4-8 hrs for letting out. That does not mean that when I get to the sit, you tell me you expect every hour. I also do not cancel other bookings so that you can be the sole client. I have been through that, obliged, and the client was still dissatisfied. I am running a business and the new owner of this app runs on harsh algorithms that hide you in search. Let’s try to be better and more human, than conforming to private equity and their bottom line. For the fur babies, I can follow their diet and pet or play or brush their hair. As long as you give me a list or schedule, I'll do my best to provide it. I have extensive experience with pets at all stages of life. (As well as other kinds of pets which I am open to caring for.) I understand the care required for a wide variety of needs and can do my best to provide reinforcement on current training, but I am not going to be attuned right off the jump to the nuances noticed by your trainer or you... I can reinforce sit, lay down, paw, stay, heel, rollover, or anything else. I can administer medicine. I am not formally trained in pet CPR, but I am trained in human CPR and have looked at videos for pet CPR. When I was younger I worked as a lifeguard, and have a remarkable natural ability to stay calm and act fast in crisis situations. This comes in handy, for example: when protecting my maltipoo from other dogs, managing territorial behavior, or keeping one dog out of another dog’s bowl. My schedule is flexible and I have a car. I have a small business and partial responsibility of my dog, so I do need to be able to run errands, go to meetings, or check in at home to keep that part of my life running. For extended care, and distance further than 5 miles, I prefer be given the option to stay over at clients for the sake of gas costs, time, and energy. First meeting and approach are important to setting a precedent, I first see if the pet will approach me. I like to offer my hand palm down for them to smell. Sometimes it takes a few times smelling the hand before they feel comfortable letting me pet them. In my opinion it’s important not to mess up first impressions with the pet. Spending time together builds familiarity bonds, being attentive builds trust. It’s important to build rapport.
