Victoria is a gem!! She watched our 2 dogs and cat on our last vacation. She was very attentive to the animals and very communicative to us. She was great and would definitely use again!

Celeste was great! She was able to check in on my puppy while I was at work. She asked all the right questions to make sure she knew how to care for him best and absolutely followed through! I know he was in good hands with her.

I can't reccomend Taylor enough! She took such good care of my cats and lizard while we were on vacation for a week. We have a very shy and standoffish cat and it was clear to me that Taylor made them all feel so safe and comfortable based on how willing the cats were to let her snap pics of them every day - shes a great photographer too! Great communication, punctual, flexible (thank you again for feeding and keeping an eye on our bearded dragon!), and just all around a wonderful sitter who we will absolutely be booking with again. I would trust her in my home and with my pets any day. Thank you Taylor!

Brianna was amazing! She took great care of our dog while we were gone. She was always easy to reach and communicate with, and promptly responded to any questions we had. She sent us videos and photos while we were away and our dog looked so happy in all of them. I would highly recommend her, and we will definitely book with her again.

Madison took such great care of my older cat. I was hesitant to leave at all since a week earlier my cat injured herself. Madison checked on her daily and kept her company.

I am so glad I found McCall! She is mature, reliable, and she really "gets" cats. I had her watch my cat while I was out of town for a couple days, and I was impressed with her communication and professionalism. My cat loved her during our initial meet & greet, which was very reassuring. He's shy, though, so McCall didn't actually see him during her drop-in visits. However, due to McCall's experience with cats, she knew that was normal and took it in stride. It was a relief to know my pet was well cared for, and that I could enjoy my trip., I enthusiastically recommend McCall and look forward to working with her again.

Professional. Confident. Reassuring. Reliable. My pups have some quirks and are BIG which can be intimidating. She completed a VERY last minute meet and greet which helps calm our nerves. She provided report cards and pictures. We will definitely use her again!

Fantastic job with my typically difficult 90lb furry love ball of a dog. Very informative updates. Went above and beyond in my opinion. 10/10.

About: I have been watching pets for years and would love to provide great care to yours as well! I know how important your pet is to you and you can trust that I have years of experience taking care of animals. I have lived with pets my entire life, so I know how to recognize body language and anxiety. That knowledge is supplemented by my experience volunteering at animal shelters for four years. I am currently studying Mechanical Engineering at the Ohio State University. Outside of my classes, I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I currently cannot keep pets at my home. However, I am always happy to watch pets in your home! I can overnight petsit or do only day visits or dog walks. Pet parents have trusted me taking care of their pets in their home for years.

About: I’ve been raised with animals my whole life! I have had various cats, fish, dogs and, even a hedgehog over the years. I was also responsible for walking the two family dogs. I’ve pet sat several times for family friends in the past. I love cats and dogs, (of any size) and have true compassion for any animal I meet, as if they were my own pet. Let me know if you have any questions! I work Monday-Friday, 9-5. I am flexible to stop by early mornings, after work, and on the weekends! I’m happy to work with you to determine the best schedule that fits your pets needs. If I am in your home to complete a service the utmost caution would be exercised to respect your space while caring for your furry friend!

Madison was wonderful and accommodating with our cats' needs and quirks. We appreciated her communication and the pictures she left with each visit, and we're sure our cats appreciated the attention she offered with play and pets. We felt both our cats and our home were in good hands with Madison.

Nicole is THE BEST!!! This was my first time using Rover -- and it was a very high stress situation, what with the friend supposed to watch my cat cancelling less than 24 hrs before we were set to leave on vacation. Nicole came over for a meet-n-greet barely an hour after I initially contacted her. She then took the most amazing care of my baby, truly exceeded my expectations -- sending all kinds of pics and videos which not only eased my mind, but also showed all the love and attention she was providing. I was worried he would hide the entire time and the best I could hope for was that at least he would get fed -- but Nicole is truly magical. And she became his new best friend. I would, and will, use Nicole again in a heartbeat -- and if you are reading this in contemplation of hiring her, I HIGHLY encourage you to do so. I cannot say enough good things about her and this experience.
