“We had Emily at our home for 6 whole days watching our fu family as we went on vacation in Florida. She was nothing less than Amazing with our babies. We had such peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. She updated us daily on how they were and sent photos. She even tidied the house before leaving. I would definitely use her again for our vacations in the future. Highly recommend her and Rover.com.”
“I was impressed with Catherine from start to finish. My pets immediately took to her, and she gave them lots of love and care while I was away. She sent regular updates and pics, and I felt very comfortable with her caring for them in my home. I was extremely impressed and happy with her and her service. Highly recommend her!”
“Kathy has been absolutely wonderful to work with! I have two dogs, a senior Vizsla and young Boston Terrier. I hired Kathy to pet sit for three days, several hours each day. Kathy went above and beyond to make my pets feel comfortable! She engaged with them, sent pictures throughout the day and let me know how they were doing. She also had great communication prior to the booking. I will definitely hire Kathy again.”
“We have had more “meh” experiences in the past with house/dog sitters. It has made me really not want to travel because of the anxiety leaving them creates. Sydney’s stay and care she provided to our 4 furkids has renewed my faith in people. A few days before we left, she visited and I shown her around, she met our bunch. She was prompt getting to our home after we left. Her & I texted off & on over the course of the 4 days we were away. She sent photos & videos ❤️🐶❤️ And she was present with them the vast majority of the entire stay. We returned to a clean & tidy home and best of all - 4 happy , yet chill furkids. They were excited to see us but obviously received wonderful attention the entire time. I would highly recommend Sydney and I’m excited to get another getaway on our calendar soon ❤️”

When I was in college I sometimes did house sit for people so I also have experience doing that if you need me to stay in your home a few nights or just come and check while you are away.

About: My family has always had three dogs at a time, and most of them were rescues. I have been a dog lover since I was little. Dogs naturally love me. I am between jobs right now, and I want to fill that time doing what I love. Unfortunately, where I currently live does not allow dogs. I follow strict care schedules and have experience with medicated dogs. I am not trained to give injections but I'm willing to learn. My dog used to take seizure medicine daily.
About: I have been taking care of animals for years. I have 25 pets of my own and love every animal. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pets!

When I am watching your pets at your home I follow the schedule that I’m given. I’ll include walks as well. When they’re at my house I have crates and a large back yard.
“Jennifer & Brad were absolutely wonderful! They came to our house to meet us, and greeted our cat and dog as if they were old friends. Both the animals seemed to take to them right away. Then Jennifer returned several times each day to feed and play with our fur babies. They were very trustworthy and contacted me regularly to let me know how the two pets were doing. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. I have a certification in Veterinary Assisting and am experienced in administering medications. Whatever your pets require (food, walks, play), I’ll be happy to provide! Experienced with pets of all ages and will send you pictures and videos of your pets if you’d like. I am currently a student at Muskingum University. As such, I will only be available to stay overnight on weekends, but I can work around my schedule to feed and check in on pets on weekdays. I live on campus at Muskingum University, which means I’ll be unable to care for pets in my own home. My care in your home depends on what you require for your pet. Whether you want me to check in on them briefly or spend some hours keeping them company, I will follow your orders. If possible, I like to meet with you and your pet before I start watching them so that we can go over any instructions and they can feel more comfortable around me. Depending on their personality and sociability, I am equally happy playing with them or giving them space and reading while I’m keeping them company.

Trudy T.
“I have known Trudy since college days, for over 20 years. She worked as a vet assistant while in college and has always had a love of animals. We even had a cat at our apartment while in college! We've taken our dogs with us camping! She took in her dog, Milo as a re-home and was able to get him off ALL of his prescription anxiety meds because what he needed was daily vigorous excersise and extra love and care and understanding. She has cats and sheep as well. As a school counselor she uses her patience and empathy skills to really get to know your pet and listen to what you, the owner needs. Trudy really has a special talent for caring for animals and I highly recommend her, you won't be disappointed with the level of quality and attention to detail.”
Ash N.
“Ash is absolutely fantastic with dogs! From the very first walk, it was clear how naturally caring and attentive she is. Whether it's a high-energy pup that needs a long walk or a shy dog that needs a gentle hand, Ash always knows just what to do. She's reliable, patient, and truly loves what she does. My dog always comes home happy and well-cared for after spending time with her. I couldn't ask for a better sitter or walker—Ash is a real gem on Rover!”
