“Thank you so much Christina! You did a great job with Sadie and it made our weekend stress free. The communication was fabulous and updates and pictures were so nice to have. We appreciate you and will definitely be requesting your services again as well as recommending you!”


“Jo K. was excellent! She took very good care of our boys. She kept us updated the whole time, letting us know that the dogs were doing well. We would highly recommend her!”
“Molly was great! She stayed at our house and watched our Great Dane. She kept us updated and sent photos. Our dog is high maintenance and she did a great job caring for her. I recommend Molly and will use her again.”

“Alicia was great! I could tell from the pictures that our pups felt comfortable and at ease with her. When we came home, the dogs and cats all were happy to see us and were calm. I could tell she took excellent care of them because they were all happy and relaxed when we got home(and three of them have anxiety). Our house was clean and everything how we left it. 100% recommend to anyone looking for high quality care! Will definitely call her again for future pet sitting needs.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From childhood through adulthood, I’ve regularly spent weeknights and weekends caring for pets of friends, family, and neighbors—feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. Whether it’s an energetic pup who needs exercise or a more relaxed companion who just wants company, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care—not just a quick check-in. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. In a client’s home, I stick to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and of course lots of love and attention. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos. If pets stay with me, I create a calm, safe space where they can relax and feel comfortable. I supervise closely, keep them on their usual schedule, and make sure they get plenty of interaction and care.
“Maura was AMAZING!!!!!! We were gone for 11 nights and she treated our dogs like they were her own. She communicated and sent pics to keep us updated. I couldn’t have asked for more! She went above and beyond! Will be using her again!!!”

“James is the best!! He has taken care of my reactive, anxious, senior pup and my senior cat many times. I can comfortable travel internationally for over a week without any worries. My pets love James so much and he’s an amazing house guest. Can’t recommend him highly enough!”

“This was Christabel’s second time sitting for my cats. I appreciate her meeting me ahead of the sit to receive the keys and discuss recent changes to my cats’ care. I will definitely check her calendar for any future trips!”


“Madi is amazing!! She was on time and followed my instructions carefully, and sent cute pictures while I was away. I would trust her to watch my pets any time!!”

About: I’ve taken care of many animals in my life and also train my cat to play fetch and tag. I also have taken care of senior dogs during their final moments. Im currently a stay at home housewife and have some free time and I love animals so I definitely don’t mind how long or price for the care I’ll be giving I give my cat and my friends animals when watching them all kinds of vitamins and supplements with salmon, fish, squid, and all kinds of other stuff. I give them attention so they know that they are loved and cared for. If the cat at my place is an issue he could stay in the bedroom for the time being
“If I could rate her 20 stars I would! She cared for my dog Vito while I was on a vacation and he had so many adventures with her and her dogs. He was very comfy with her both in my home at night and at her house during the day and she followed all my instructions and even gave me some cool new ideas to implement into our relationship with him now.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 5 (bull dogs, pug, strays, etc.). Have professionally sat a ridgeback and a small cavalier. I’m currently working full time from 7:30 - 3:30, but can definitely work weekends ! Or stop in on week nights. Whatever is needed can be worked out. My animals roam free in my house, but different people have different needs. Dogs are always leashed on walks and held back from strangers !
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my professional experience as an animal keeper, where attention to detail, behavior observation, and quality care are essential every day. I’ve owned and cared for dogs throughout my life and genuinely enjoy being around them, whether at dog parks, beaches, or dog-friendly spaces. Even without a dog of my own currently, I stay actively connected to dogs and understand the exercise, enrichment, patience, and companionship they need to thrive. I currently work full time as a professional animal keeper, but I’m excited to spend my free time caring for even more animals. I’m available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks outside of my work hours, and I bring the same level of attentiveness, reliability, and compassion to pets that I do in my professional animal care career. I understand the importance of trust, responsibility, and attention to detail when caring for animals in someone else’s home. I am reliable, respectful of clients’ spaces, and committed to providing attentive monitoring, consistent care, and peace of mind while pets are in my care. I currently care for two cats, a lizard, and a boa, which has given me firsthand experience with the unique needs, behaviors, and routines of a variety of animals. Caring for such different species has strengthened my understanding that every pet is an individual and deserves personalized, attentive care tailored to their specific personality and needs.
“Joe did a great job. Got various updates on our baby. Chonk seemed to really like him. Also he left our home super clean. I recommend him and will be rebooking.”

About: I have grown up with and taken care of animals roughly my whole life! Having two cats and two dogs makes caring for animals a daily routine for me. I am also great with caring for kittens and puppies as I have raised all four of my animals since they were little. I have also cared for my own dog’s litter! I’m currently a full time student at the University of Akron & have a ton of time during the summer and holiday seasons to care for any type of animal as needed. I have crate training experience and will be able to crate your pet if needed. I am able to easily adapt to any other security measures as needed.

I found a gem of a cat sitter in Allyce, who came to the rescue when I contacted her with only a few days notice, rearranging her schedule to help. She gave my two cats the best care during my trip, and me peace of mind knowing I could trust her with them my home. She is incredibly thoughtful, thorough, and sweet, and sent me updates throughout the day, assuring me they were being cared for wonderfully. I highly recommend her to any pet parent, and my cats are already looking forward to seeing her again!

Carrie was great with our Gilbert, she stayed over our place with him overnight while we were out of town! He still has puppy golden energy & can be hyper at times. She was very patient with him & updated us frequently with photos as well. I would highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!

Candy was absolutely amazing with our 13 year old pup! She completely went above and beyond with her visits and care - she checked in every day, sending adorable pics & updates. We highly recommend booking with Candy and will totally reach back out in the future when we need dog sitting! Thank you so much, Candy!

Elysia was great! She responded quickly to my inquiry when I suddenly needed a dog sitter on very short notice, and I could tell right away during our meet & greet that she’d take great care of our dog. We came home to a happy dog and a well cared-for home. I would hire her again.

In the past, I have been hesitant using rover because it can be difficult to trust someone with your pet. However, I couldn't be happier we decided to reach out to Sierra to board our Bernese mountain dog, Sullivan! Sully has a lot of personality and can be anxious at times, it takes some time getting to know his quirkiness; but when we did the meet and greet with Sierra, it eased all of my worries! You can tell she genuinely loves being around, and caring for dogs. Sully got along great with her two dogs, who are so well behaved. Throughout our trip, Sierra sent the perfect amount of updates with pictures and videos- and Sully made himself right at home! It was so nice to enjoy my time away knowing Sully was in good hands, and we are so relieved to have found a reliable couple to watch Sully and to be stress free when away!

Anna was a fantastic companion for our dog Jax! She took excellent care of him and sent us updates and pictures throughout her stay at our house. She went above and beyond by stopping by to get a tour of the house and to get to know Jax the day prior to our reservation. We would highly recommend Anna to other families who are looking for a new friend that your dog can spend time with when you’re away from home! :)
