“Bethany took such great care of our large pit bull/lab mix. It was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous, but I could tell right away that our dog was in very good hands. She was very responsive and sent tons of pictures, and we will definitely use her in the future!”
“I was so worried about Simon but I came back from a 3week vacation and he was wonderful. I know this is because Alison took such good care of him. She was awesome. I would completely recommend her.”
“The ease of mind Susan provides for us knowing our boys are well taken care of cannot be overstated. She picked up on their personalities and routines straight away and we feel very lucky to have her watch over our boys when we’re gone.”
“Tess was amazing and incredibly flexible when my travel plans shifted due to bad weather. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty, which says everything. She paid close attention to his eating and bathroom habits and really took the time to understand how he likes to play and receive attention. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such thoughtful hands. I would absolutely love to have Tess back anytime and highly recommend her.”
“Heather was wonderful! She sat & spent time with my kiddos, and provided pictures each session. Makes me feel so much better having someone I can trust there for my babies when I have to be away!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life and of all ages. but I have specifically taken care of puppies and middle age dogs. Those dogs I have worked with the most with. I had a senior dog in my household that I took care of until she unfortunately passed from cancer and I had administered medication to her and such. I have also taken in 2 foster dogs one with separation anxiety and other medication issues due to being in the shelter. I would have to give her medication and baths on the regular due to her having multiple accidents in her crate. With the second dog they were a 2 month old puppy that I fostered for a weekend and took to an adoption event where they had gotten adopted. I want to make sure all animals are loved and cared for while there owners are away and so that the owner don’t have to worry and know there fur babies are okay. I take care of my pets at home already so it’s really just a built in thing for my schedule. It’s an easy thing to do during the day or to end your day with as well so it all just fits in nicely. And who doesn’t want to end their day with some snuggles. I want to treat my clients pets how I would want my pets treated. I wouldn’t mind any them to be pushed to the side or just be let out and then leave I would want my pets to be played with and have some attention and love before heading out just so they know that someone is looking out for them until their owners are back
“Jessica is awesome with my dogs…. She communicates really well and sends updates on bathroom breaks during walks. You can tell she is a dog person and really enjoys being around animals.”
“Crista was amazing. I was a first time rover user and she was very responsive, helped me feel comfortable in this process and had great ideas with how to approach my hesitant pup. 10/10 would recommend”
“Corey is the best! He has been regularly dropping in on my two pups for a few weeks now and they absolutely love him. He is reliable, punctual, and just has a kind and calming presence. He knows and understands dogs well, and that experience shows. I would trust him with my pets any day!”
“Lauren did a wonderful job taking care of our three cats while we were out of town. She was communicative/responsive and also took care of mail and plant watering to boot. The house was in great shape when we returned home, and our kitties were clearly in good hands during our absence. I can’t recommend Lauren more highly and will definitely work with her again!!”
“We love Breanna! This was our first time doing drop in visits instead of boarding while we were on a weekend trip and it went great! Bre is super sweet and our dog loved her! She always gave great updates and responded in a timely manner. She has a dog of her own and took great care of ours while we were gone! Definitely will be booking again in the future! Thanks so much Breanna!”
“Alexis was great! The cats were comfortable with her and she was very communicative. There was a plumbing disaster that came up unexpectedly and she notified me immediately + waited around to let maintenance in.”
“Angel was extremely responsive when setting up the meet and greet and took amazing care of Mr Cat! She sent daily photos and updates and he looked happy and cared for!”
“Saul took time to come over and meet Myla before his first drop in. He has been extremely helpful in helping us take care of our puppy. Great at communicating when he will be dropping in and even sends us daily updates and pictures!”
About: I've had pet since my earliest memories. On top of caring for pets of my own, including cats, dogs, reptiles, arachnids, and more, I also fostered animals in southern Indiana for 5+ years. Now that I'm in the Cincinnati area I want to find a way to help animals again so I joined Rover! I currently work as a contractor for a delivery company so I choose my own hours, this way I have time to fit in the furry friends. I can come any time, day or night! When caring for pets in someones home I always make sure to have a list of things the pet parents want to make sure is done. I also make sure all cabinets and doors are secure before leaving a room, this way pets can't get into anything they shouldn't. When outside with the pups, I always make sure to keep them on the outside away from the road when walking on sidewalks.
“Alex was very prompt to respond to my request for a last-minute booking, took good care of my dog, sent detailed updates, and asked questions as needed. Alex was very professional in all aspects of communicating and completing visits.”

Southgate cat parents share their Rover experiences
Angel is the best and will always be our go-to for all of our kitties!! We have 6 cats, some with bigger personalities, and she does so good taking care of them all and making sure each of them get attention. Angel took care of our kitties for 2 full weeks this time and did an amazing job, was communicative, and we came back to happy kitties and a clean house just the way we left it! Thanks, Angel!!
My lil man was so happy when I came home! Wolf is a great sitter and put my mind at ease while away with great communication and photo/written updates. I returned home to a place as clean as I'd left it so their cleanliness is appreciated! Thanks again, Wolf!
Hannah did great watching my cat while we were gone on a long vacation. She was able to find my cat even in her hiding places, and always sent a picture and update. She was easy to communicate with for dropping off keys, etc. I would definitely recommend her for your pet!!!
I always have a great experience Tanya taking care of my two playful cats! One of my cats requires medication, and she handles that with ease and care, which gives me so much peace of mind. It’s such a relief to know our pets are in good hands. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking again!
Anise is such an excellent sitter! This was my first time using Rover and Anise made me feel extremely comfortable leaving my cat in her care. She was communicative, took lots of pictures, and always went above and beyond to make sure my cat was getting enough attention.
