About: I have always loved animals ever since I was small. My experience really started when I was able to live on my own and adopt my first pet, a female cat named Kitty, in 2001. I have flexible hours and am willing to help pretty much any time. I currently work part time for myself as an Ebay seller and I sell mostly 3D printed items. I have 3 teenage sons and a tween daughter who are also animal lovers. I have a fenced backyard if needed and I can also help at the client's home. I follow instructions well and can offer your pet safety and love on their terms.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember—most of them high-energy Beagles—so I know firsthand how much love, patience, and consistency pets need. What sets me apart is not just my experience, but my genuine connection with animals and understanding of their unique personalities and needs. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs needing medication and a gentler routine. I’m confident with leash training, reinforcing basic commands, administering meds, and offering plenty of structured playtime and affection. Whether your pet needs a jogging buddy, a calm companion, or someone to stick to their routine like clockwork, I’m here to help them feel safe, loved, and right at home! My primary job is remote, which allows me the flexibility to work from anywhere. However, I do currently work part-time on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am typically home by 1:00 PM. In addition, my weekends are completely open and available. I live in a peaceful, low-traffic area with over 20 acres of walking paths and wooded trails—perfect for outdoor exercise and exploration. I also have a wraparound porch with multiple leads for safe and relaxed outdoor time. I have two friendly, playful female dogs of my own, and I’m experienced in managing multi-dog environments. If needed, I’m fully capable of crating or separating pets to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. I’m committed to providing attentive, personalized care and any support your friend may need to feel right at home!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets—dogs, cats, and small animals. From daily walks and feedings to administering medications and providing comfort, I’ve built trust with pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their routine, understand their behavior, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you always feel connected. I’m currently working part time so I will be available Saturdays from 12a-9p and Sunday 12a-9p. I also will take requests for other days, I can work with you! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible—feeding them on schedule, giving plenty of love and attention, keeping their space clean, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I respect their environment and follow any specific instructions closely. While I don’t currently have a dog in my own home, that allows me to give your pet my full attention without distractions. My dog currently passed so we have an electric fence but that’s it! If your pet stays with me, they’ll have a clean, calm, pet-friendly space with lots of one-on-one care, playtime, and love. I’m all about making them feel at home—whether it’s their place or mine.

“Kate took excellent care of our fur babies while we were away! They loved her drop in visits and fall walks and the photos show just how much fun they were having. We'll definitely use her again for future trips!”

About: I've been a dog owner and lover for 30 years. Growing up my parents raised and breed AKC Golden Retrievers and I helped and learned so much then. Dog's love me and I love them back! I am pet and house sitting full time.I currently live in Oberlin Ohio. I enjoy outdoor walks pretty often and miss going to the dog park. With love and attention.

About: I have many years of experience in animal care. I have always grown up with animals. My friends and family always relied on me to help take care of them. That is why I chose to get my degree in the Science of Veterinary Technology. Being a Vet Tech has really helped me learn the behaviors and mannerisms of animals. I spent almost 10 years in wildlife rehabilitation, the last few years has been in a clinic mostly with small animal care. I am skilled in feeding, watering, walking , cleaning and administering medications. I have dealt with wide ranges of ages when it comes to animals. I have taken care of lots of puppies and even our favorite senior friends. My current dog is going on 18 years old! Age is just a number! They are great in all ways no matter the age! With being a Vet Tech comes MANY responsibilities. Many of which I am proud to say I am skilled in. I would love to take care of your fur babies and give them the love they need while you are away! I also have experience of taking care of rodent friends as well! Including mice, rats, hamsters, rabbits and guinea pigs. I am currently still working a full time job at my clinic , but I am willing to work around my schedule and on the days I have off to take care of your pets! I currently have Wednesday and some weekends off! I am willing to be flexible the best that I can for you! My dog is currently almost 18. She stays out of the cage and sleeps in my husband and I’s bed or her own bed next to ours. She does not do much anymore but sleep and eat! My cat as her own cat bedroom that I keep closed while we are out. Whatever and however you keep your pets in and or out is okay with me! Free roaming or crate training , either or!

About: As a dedicated dog lover and proud owner of two golden retrievers, I understand that every dog is family. My experience caring for my own pups has given me firsthand knowledge of everything from puppy energy to the gentle needs of senior dogs. I provide patient, loving care tailored to each dog’s personality, age, and routine. Whether it’s keeping your energetic pup entertained or giving extra attention to older dogs, I treat every dog like my own—with love, consistency, and a whole lot of belly rubs. I’m a college student currently off for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule! I’m available weekdays from early mornings through early evenings. While I prefer daytime care, I can also accommodate overnight stays with advance notice. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I’m excited to spend my summer giving dogs the attention, playtime, and love they deserve! While I don’t offer in-home boarding, I’m happy to care for your dog in the comfort of your own home. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, and I’ll treat your home and your dog with the utmost respect and care. My own dogs are protective, so I don’t offer playdates, but I’m more than happy to take your pup on walks, to the park, or to any favorite spots they enjoy. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities.

About: Hey there! My name is Dorottya. I've taken care of different kinds of pets since I was a kid and I always seem to be a pet magnet when I visit my friends, they just can't get enough of my cuddles. I've also been known to talk and sing to animals, it makes them happy and sooths them. I believe that creating a comfortable and caring environment while pet owners are away will help bridge the gap between the times they will be together again. No one wants a sad puppy or kitty while pet parents are away. My main options on here are for house sitting and dog walking. I have worked as a nurse for 10 years, so I have a medical background. I work full-time on my own business and typically leave a couple days open to my rover clients. I'm currently working on my own business, and I'm available to pet sit and dog walk a couple days a week from 9 am to overnight when needed. I respect the homes of my clients when pet sitting, or dog walking. I love to tailor the day to fit the individual pet's needs and their schedules for feedings, medications (if pet is taking them), potty, and activities (play time or walking).

“Stephanie was amazing with my puppy! She did everything and more we could’ve expected with walking, training, playing and making him comfortable when nervous. She is very knowledgeable and it shows! We feel very lucky to have found her.”
