“Mitchell was great! This was our first time using Rover and I’m so happy with how easy it was to communicate with Mitchell, not to mention the awesome pictures we got throughout the week. Highly recommend!”

“Erin was great. Timely, great photo updates, and no news to report. Will definitely be reaching out to her again! That was the first time using Rover, and first time leaving my dog for a full weekend without a family member, and all went well!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life so I’ve gotten very used to taking care of them and loving all kinds! I’m the person everyone in my family comes to for dog/house sitting while they’re out of town and it’s my favorite thing to do for them. I’m in between jobs right now so I have all the time to care for and play with your dogs/cats! I have a 3 year old son who’s been around dogs since the moment he was born and he’s very friendly. I have two dogs of my own at home but they get along kindly with other dogs. I have a fenced yard and a son who loves to go on long walks!

“Tyler was an excellent dog sitter for our two dogs while we were away! He provided exceptionally detailed notes for each visit as well as lots of pictures. It was clear from how quickly our dogs bonded with him that he knew how to decipher their body language and behavior cues and give them what they needed and wanted. One of our dogs usually takes several days to warm up to sitters but she and Tyler became friends very quickly! I highly recommend him, and we will be re-booking with him for future trips.”

“Carrie is great!! She came for a "meet and greet" so my dog could meet her before her 1st visit. She is great with my dog and am so happy I chose her for recurring visits each week. Very happy with her care!”

Amanda C.

“Katie was great with our little dogs who have been stressed-out after moving and now traveling! She was very kind, dependable and flexible!”

Anne S.

“Maureen is awesome. She is great at communication, provides thoughtful details, and sent the cutest photos of my cat Stella. She gave her all the attention and took excellent care of her. I was able to relax on my trip knowing she was well taken care of and that was very much needed!! Highly recommend Maureen, she is a professional and will take wonderful care of your fur babies!”

“Maura was wonderful. She was so attentive and sent amazing pictures. She’s reliable and has amazing communication. I will absolutely be using her in the future and I recommend her 100%!”

About: I currently have 1 dog, 1 cat, and tons of exotics!I have worked in a pet rescue giving me experience with shy dogs and the most outgoing dogs. I've been trained on safe walking practices and safe dog interactions. I would love to help care for your pets! With the pets I have, I'm always working and learning about the care I can provide them! With my dog and cat, I'm ready to play with them. I also work at a pet store specializing in fish. I'm happy and ready to join your pets live's as long as I can! For dog walking and drop in visits I like to spend time letting the dog sniff me before harnessing or leashing. I want to make sure they are comfortable with me in their space. Once showing a more relaxed body language I'm ready to earn trust and take walks around neighborhoods and take dogs out for their potty breaks.

“Ms. Jo was amazing! I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She really took care of Renzel and I can tell he was happy! When I leave for a trip he usually doesn’t eat for a couple days but Ms Jo is the first person to watch over him and he ate for. I travel a lot. I hope to have the honor of Ms Jo to watch Renzel in the future!”

“Alicia stepped right in and got immediately comfortable with our fur babies. She accepted a last minute booking and was so helpful with her flexibility and patience with our anxious girl dog. I will book again with Alicia!”

About: I say the above because for many years, my long time dog buddy, Shelby (pictured in the photo I'm holding), loved to ride in my car, right by my side. Shelby passed away in 2018 and I miss her so much, every day. In 2019, I rescued a blue heeler/beagle mix, Nova; then in 2024, a shepherd mix, Holly. Dogs have been my companions for more than 40 years, and I have loved caring for, walking, playing, vacationing and just plain hanging with them. . I truly love dogs. They are one of humankind's most noble and steadfast animal friends. I would very much enjoy taking your best friend (or friends) for a walk. I have always enjoyed the company of my canines...and I'm sure I'd feel the same way about your four-legged pals. Plus, getting out with them is great exercise...for both dog and human! I am semi retired, so I have much flexibility in the hours that can be devoted to dog walking. I walk my own dogs in all kinds of weather, which is necessary given the variable climate here in NE Ohio! In my own home, my dogs get out for walks at least three times a day, we well as potty breaks where necessary. They have crates where they can freely go to when they wish to. Most important is that the dogs and I adhere to a stable, regular routine, including feeding and playtimes.

About: I have had dogs just about my entire adult life. I had a miniature pinscher named Trey for 15 years and he was awesome! I also had a terrier mix named Alice for 12 years whom I loved very much. I have not had a dog for a few years now and miss getting to play/walk with a four-legged friend and figured this would be a fun way to scratch that itch. I have a sunroom that overlooks acres of woods for your pup to stare/bark at and a big front window to guard and let the mailman know who's boss. I work from home and can hang out with your pup all day in my house. I have a big yard they can play in and can take them for frequent walks. I do not have any pets so your pup will get my full attention. I have had dogs for 20+ years of my life and am a huge animal lover!

“Caitlyn was great with Mario, dependable, and took great pics!”

“Erica was amazing! We set up a meet and greet and our cat is very selective of who he immediately goes up to and he wasted no time meeting her. We were able to enjoy our trip and not worry at all if our cat was cared for and well taken care of! Will be using her again! We really appreciated the amount of pictures she sent us.”

“Tina is great! She followed our instructions exactly, which include an injection on our one pet that can be kinda grumpy about it! Thanks for the great service!”

“Melissa was absolutely wonderful, and I am so thankful we found her! She completely eased my anxieties about leaving my two senior, high maintenance dogs for the weekend. It was obvious from the start that she is a true dog person. She followed all of my instructions, communicated clearly, and kept me updated with pictures throughout each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. She was patient, attentive, and more than capable of handling my senior boys and all of their quirks. I truly hope Melissa is willing to watch my pups again in the future because I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy sitter!”

Rebecca L.

“My pups love Devon! I also foster and she’s up for taking care of 3 dogs if I need her to. She is easy to communicate with, reliable, and provides great care for my pups. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life - mostly well tempered labs we got as puppies. Now, my husband and I have a pitbull who we rescued a few years ago that has taught us so much about patience and unconditional love. She’s needed a lot of training and nurturing due to her abusive past and we accepted the challenge. Now, I am comfortable with all kinds of training tools such as prong and e-collars, I understand how to read behavior and body language and feel very confident caring for dogs that have different behavioral challenges. I work frequently with a trainer (with 30+ years experience) who has really changed our dog’s life for the better and has taught me how to be a more confident and responsible dog owner/caretaker. Rover is my secondary gig - I am a full time personal trainer. I work mostly afternoons and evening but am available during the day during the week and most weekends. I frequently update my calendar, so make sure to check out my availability prior to booking! I can not keep dogs in my home as our rescue dog is not friendly to other dogs, but I would be happy to care for your pet in your home/neighborhood, which I am sure is the most comfortable environment for them anyway. I love to get my steps in and was an athlete for many years so I can take dogs for short or long walks depending on the owners desired activity level for their pet! I'd be happy to walk around your neighborhood or head over to a local trail or park as well!

“Cassie is so amazing & I’ll definitely be using her again! She shows compassion for animals & provided reassurance to me when meeting my shy dog. 10/10 recommend”
