About: I've been taking care of dachshunds since I was 7 and I always loved walking with them as well as other bigger dogs. I take walks every day for my mental health and would love to have your dog join me. I'm a full time student at the moment,so I can walk your dog anytime after 3:30 on weekdays and pretty much anytime on weekdays. During summer, I can walk whenever it's convenient for you I have a great neighborhood to walk dogs in. I also have a car, so I can take them to a park or your neighborhood

“Brooke is our dog’s new best friend. She took such great care of her on her midday visits over three days and gave us great peace of mind with her fantastic status updates and lots of photos!”


“Lydia is a sweetheart and took good care of my kitties. I was nervous about leaving them alone for so long, but Lydia put my mind at ease. She sent pictures every day and responded promptly to my messages. I would definitely hire her again next time I go on vacation”


“Kelly was amazing! Punctual, kind and super informative. I truly was at ease knowing my little boy was being taken care while working long hours. I recommend Kelly 10/10.”


“Katie is so great with Seymour! He has a hard time getting to know people, but with Katie’s confidence and calm demeanor they quickly became best friends!”


“Charlotte was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover, and I was a little nervous because I’ve only ever had family take care of my cat while I was away. Charlotte made it easy to enjoy a few days away by being easy to communicate with, sending pictures of my kitty, and being prompt and professional. We will absolutely be asking Charlotte back and recommend her to anyone looking to breathe easy while being away from their fur baby ☺️”


“Gosh I can’t say enough good things about Michelle, always on time, she’s very reliable! My little Sully really likes her, I can tell by the pics she sends, great job Michelle thank you!!”


About: I’m a loving, assertive dog owner. I have confidence handling high energy pups big and small. I trained my big, wild, Mutt to become a perfect two-year-old gentleman. I have taken some responsibility of family pets since I was seven years old, making caring for dogs second nature. I am a full time student with a part time job during the summer. I have plenty of time and flexibility to share with dogs! I take my dog on walks every day, as he is slightly reactive, I am always aware of my surroundings. I put the safety of the pets first. I use the proper training tools to set them up for success and happiness. I notice animals limitations and take precautions in a every situation.

“Amanda was our Rover person for 2 visits over a couple days. We have used her before and she always answers quickly and is great with our pets. Our new dog can be somewhat difficult so her dog certification was an extra bonus. We definitely recommend her!”


About: I know everyone says they’re passionate for your animals but I truly am. This is my main gig, I have my own pet sitting business around the whole tri state of Cincinnati. I’ve been growing and growing and I’m looking for more pets to love and care for❤️. Pet sitting is my main focus.

I want to make your pet feel comfortable and happy just as they would with their owners!
