“Sarah is incredible! Our cat is always a little hesitant to meet new people but warms up after a while and Sarah is so patient and sweet with our cat, they have become quick friends. Would highly recommend to anyone!!”
“Allison was punctual, thorough, and a delight to work with. This was the first time we left our two kitties at home alone but everything was fine, thanks to her care!”
“First of all, if you're thinking of booking with Holly, stop thinking and just do it! We were trying to get a sitter for days and thought one was going to do it for us, then no-showed the meet and greet the day before we were leaving for vacation. In a scramble, I found Holly and she immediately said she could help us, even it being such last minute. We left written instructions and she followed them to a T, and our pups absolutely adored her! Towards the end of our vacation, a hurricane caused our flight to be canceled and we were unsure of when we'd actually be able to get back home, and again, Holly stepped up and was more than willing to help us out and do extra visits with our pups to make sure they were happy and taken care of until we returned. She also brought all our mail and packages inside, and kept us updated with the house and pictures of the doggos. Can't say enough great things about her, and she'll definitely be our go-to sitter from now on!”
“Mary took great care of our cat Lucy who can be a little shy. Mary followed all of our instructions and even convinced Lucy to cuddle a bit. I also liked all of the pictures. Thanks again, Mary!”
About: I grew up with a reactive black lab, so I know how to handle leash pulling and how to deescalate and prevent fights. In her old age, I learned to accommodate her failing joints. I’ve been trained at the Licking County Humane Society in Ohio as a volunteer dog walker, which has well equipped me to understand and respond respectfully to dog language. I further pursue this knowledge by reading about how dogs communicate with us, and by observing and analyzing their behavior both in real life and online. This will be my primary commitment, so I can easily cater to your schedule to fit your pets needs. Mornings, evenings, weekends, whatever you need, except Thursdays :) I will take great care to follow your instructions and respect the rules of your home and needs of your animal(s). I cannot accept boarding in my own home at the moment.
“Justin was great! He was very quick to communicate about booking and visits! He was on-time and flexible for drop-in visits, and he provided great updates and photos of his time with Callie! They went for plenty of walks, and Justin spent extra time throwing the ball for her, and just relaxing at home for extra company while I was away! I will book again with Justin for my next trip! He did a fantastic job with Callie!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 50 years. I've cared for my own pets as well as regularly helped family and friends by watching their dogs, walking them, and making sure they were well cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like part of the family. I am retiring and love working with dogs, so my schedule is very flexible. This allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care while keeping active and meeting new furry friends I provide a safe and loving environment with a fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time. I make sure dogs get regular walks, exercise, and plenty of attention. I also enjoy keeping pets engaged with toys and fun activities, including an outdoor pool in the summer, so they stay happy, active and comfortable.
About: Hi! I’m Dani — I have several years of experience caring for pets and love working with animals of all sizes and personalities. I’ve helped with dog walking, pet sitting, feeding routines, and giving lots of attention and playtime. I’m especially reliable, communicative, and patient, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I’m available for drop-ins and walks and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions to keep your pet comfortable and safe. I also have a flexible summer schedule, so I can accommodate last-minute needs and consistent routines. I’d love to meet your pet! I have three dogs of my own, including one with special needs, so I’m confident working with puppies to senior dogs. I have experience giving medication. I’m presently in school and only taking one class over the summer. I ensure that I keep my availability updated for potential clients. In the summer of 2026, I have no availability on Thursdays. I’m happy to do a meet and greet prior to developing our walking relationship. I’m comfortable providing medication and happy to follow any directions for pet care that are necessary.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I grew up with dogs and over the last 10+ years became a huge cat person as well, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs. Since I work from home, pets get plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and walks throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. I currently have two cats, so I understand how important it is to trust someone treating your pets like family. I’m dependable, patient, active, and love spending time outdoors getting exercise with pets while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting in your home depending on your pet’s needs. I also enjoy getting my steps in and staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to while making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm, and supervised environment with plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I do currently have two cats, so I ask that dogs staying with me are cat-friendly. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routine, follow feeding/walking instructions carefully, and make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I believe pets should feel safe, loved, and treated like family in any environment. I have a pet-friendly backyard space for supervised outdoor time, walks, and play. Since the yard is not fenced in, safety and supervision are always a priority.

Sincerely, I am a full time stay at home caregiver for my dad who is partially paralyzed. I am able to always be available to your pets in my home. I am able to let your dogs run free in my fenced-in and private back yard and I can walk them daily or more around my pet friendly neighborhood.

“Amanda provided drop-in visits to feed my 2 kitties over 3-week long period. She made time to get to know my cats during meet-and-greet. She was flexible and showed up every week on time to feed my cats, clean their litter box and also take out trash. She is great at communicating quickly and positively. Will hire her again!”
Penn Hills pet parents share their Rover experiences
My dog instantly connected with Aubra at our meet and greet! She provided a couple of drop-in visits and was very punctual. She kept me updated with great communication throughout, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I could tell my dog was comfortable and well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Aubra.
For a vacation where everything that could go wrong almost did, Kayli was the one reliable positive thing that we had to deal with through our planning and travels! Kayli was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and was super understanding and easy going while dealing with our pipes freezing while she stayed with our pets. I also think our pets behaved better for her than they do for us!! I was a little reluctant to use rover as we have always had friends stay with our pets but I am so happy to have found Kayli!
Kathryn , thank you! I am so appreciative of the efforts you made to locate our hiding Mr Gibbs, and attempts at engaging him out from his “not so un- obvious hideout”! Yes, he does leave “clues” around the house as to his 👻presence when opening doors and drawers. I am glad you detected “nose prints” signaling an appetite. 🤣. Your communication at each visit was so appreciated . We felt safe and secure knowing you were watching and caring for him!
Thank you Tyle!!! We know this was a really busy weekend for you and thank you so much for taking great care of our sweet Bailey and Teddy while we were away this weekend. Your notes and updates are always so appreciated. Hope you have a great week and we will be in touch as future trips come up.
