Sam took great care of our three cats while we were out of town for the holidays! She gave us regular updates with pictures and videos, and it set our minds at ease to know our girls were happy and healthy.

Eliza was wonderful with Mia. It was so nice to have someone with her background to spend time with Mia and make her feel comfortable while I was away for the day. I highly recommend Eliza! Thank you so much for your gentle care with Mia.

Emily was great & made sure my cats were taken care of while we were out of state! They all have a unique personality and she rolled with the punches very well! She assisted us with getting our diabetic cat, Phil, picked up for a surprise boarding visit and made sure he had all his supplies with him. Lil and Tommy were missing us but she made sure they were well fed and loved! I would recommend her and definitely use her service again! Overall a great first time Rover experience!

We are very happy with Melina! We have booked her for drop-ins 3 days a week and will continue. We work long hours and I feel so much better knowing that a caring person is stopping in to let the dogs out to run and potty. We will continue with Rover and Melina!

About: I’ve had pets in the house since I was a toddler including dogs, cats, rabbits, and reptiles. I regularly dogsit my neighbor’s dogs and hope to find more pups and kitties to help out! I am pretty open so I’m available weekdays and most weekends. I’m currently unemployed, so I am available for walks, check ins, and any other pet needs! I love giving my attention to pets and I will only be traveling to client’s homes because my home is already full of many fur babies!

About: My name is Tyler James Tracey (A.S., B.A.), I was raised in Muskingum County and graduated from Muskingum University. I worked in social services for a little under a decade before I worked in scientific research and regulation in Columbus. My family has returned to Muskingum county after I chose to pivot my career path and I'm now looking to help local families with their animal-based needs. With an academic understanding and rich professional experience in animal behavior and physiology, I bring extra security in assuring top-tier care for your family. My schedule is open and malleable for new clients. I believe in a regulated, consistent schedule, something that both humans and our pets thrive off of. I will maintain constant supervision for the pets under my care, happy to follow household standards and norms, and am willing to take your pet out of the home for exercise and enrichment. My vehicle is equipped with proper transport seating for dogs, and I keep supplies like water and portable bowls for hot days.

Ashlyn treats my kitties as if they were her own and she takes care of everything I need. I love the pictures she sends every times she visits. I feel great knowing they are in her care when I'm gone. I highly recommend Ashlyn!

About: I've been a dog mom for many years, caring for Jack Russel's, a Belgian Malinois and even spiders and snakes! Nothing phases me! Is your pet an escape artist? I'll run after them barefoot in my PJs (done this many times!). Is your pet grumpy? I'll love them anyways. Is your pet just unruly in general, requires special attention or demands you to stay on your toes? I've been there. I'm an active person and there's nothing I wouldn't do to help or care for your fur baby, that I wouldn't do with my own. Thanks for giving me a look and I hope to hear from you! I'm available most weekends and evenings. For walks during the day, I just need a little heads up! Looking forward to meeting your fur baby :) For in-home service, I will follow your babies routine to the letter! I know it's important to minimize changes in your pets environment, so they can be calm and happy in your absence :)

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors pets in the past while they’ve been out of town. Taking care of pets is something that I enjoy doing. I currently work full time and am looking for extra work mostly on the weekends but occasionally weekdays. Weekends I’m available at all times and weekdays I’m available mostly in the evenings. Wherever I’m providing care for pets, I make sure that they are in safe environments. Cleanliness is very important. I follow directions that I receive from the owners of the pets that I’m watching and give their pets attention.

Charity has been amazing. This is our first time leaving our home and cats in the care of someone we didn't personally know, and it has been a great experience. Charity sent photos with every visit, asked pertinent questions, and was so kind to our furkids. We will absolutely be using her again!

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was a little kid. My husband and I have owned 3 large dogs for over 10 years now. We have had cats and chickens, and also have owned mules. Our family loves all animals, and I would be so happy to care for your pets, as my own, so you can have peace of mind while enjoying travels! I am very flexible, and willing to travel a bit. I am currently a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very open .. I would come to your home. I do not have a fenced area for other pets. Our animals know their territory and stay safely here.

About: I treat every dog like family—because that’s how I care for my own! I’ve spent years caring for my dogs and those of friends and family, especially while they were out of town. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including playful puppies and slower-moving seniors who need extra patience and love. Whether it’s belly rubs, slow strolls, or high-energy playtime, I adjust to meet each dog’s unique needs. Your pup will be pampered, safe, and loved—just like they deserve! Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. I work part-time as a home health caregiver three days a week. On those days, I have a split schedule—just 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon, with a break in between. This gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. Outside of those hours, my schedule is very open, allowing me to give your pet the love, attention, and care they need—whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every dog like my own—loved, pampered, and well cared for. I make sure they have a calm, clean, and secure environment, free of hazards and full of attention. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, from meal times and medication to play and potty breaks. I also send regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. With my background as a home health caregiver, being attentive, responsible, and trustworthy is second nature to me—qualities I bring to every pet I care for.

This was our second time booking Sam to drop in our cats, and she was amazing! She sent fantastic photos and even put out food for the stray kittens we'd been caring for. We felt secure knowing our pets were in good hands while we were gone.
