“Carissa is a wonderful lady who has owned pets for the last 20 yrs ,,,,they have all been from rescue groups and she treats them like children , very loving !! She is currently fostering a little Boston Terrier for a rescue group ( " Speak for the Unspoken " ) out of Columbus, Ohio. He came from an Amish Puppy Mill and has thrived in her care. He is very loving and she has done a wonderful job w/taking care of him. He just loved her other dog, Gus , so they got along famously . He is getting adopted in a few weeks, the couple who met him fell in love with him instantly. This is the type of person Carissa is , helping those who need help and have no voice. If you would consider having her watch your furbabies, I can tell you without a doubt they will be thoroughly loved and cared for !!”

About: I've worked in pet insurance for 4 years and have multiple points of contact if any concerns arise with a pet. I can administer insulin and give medication and follow a strict schedule. I work from home and my schedule is very flexible therefore I can attend to your pets needs right away if they need something. My available days will alternate every other week but we can schedule something. I am in a pet friendly apartment building if I would bring your pet to my residence as long as the larger animals can handle stairs. I can perform any function in the owner's home that is needed by me for the pet with no wait time of the pet's needs.

“McKenzie is a dog mom of 1 to a golden named Rover. Safe to say that McKenzie is the best dog mom and loves all dogs unconditionally. She is the person you want taking care/walking your dog when you have a long day at work.”

“This was the 1st time I left my IZZY. WELL WORTH IT!! Jeannine was AMAZING!! I highly recommend. She kept me informed on how Izzy was the whole time I was away. Lot's of great loving pictures. She even went to the Pet Store to get her calming treats. I can honestly say her heart is full force the right person to be doing this job. I will continue to send my Izzy girl to Jeannine. I can't Thank You enough for taking the stress of leaving my dog off my shoulders this weekend. It takes a special person to care for pets and she IS that person.”

“I am a little late in getting out this review, but in no way was it because I was disinterested or not wanting to do so..On the contrary, I absolutely felt the need to write this because of the loving service I felt my family had received from this Pet Sitter. Our family has 2 pets, a dog(Susy) and a cat(Milu) and like most on this site, we deem them to be our precious little babies. They never have really been away from the family for any great length of time, so finding someone to watch and care for them was very important to us. My family was to be in South America for a week, while I was away from home that same time for my work. I had found a Pet Sitter very close to our home for Susy, but could not find anyone for Milu. After much searching, I realized the Rover website and there found numerous Pet Sitters available for Milu. After much searching, we were able to procure the services of a Sitter on Rover and set the contract. Then, with 1 week before our departure, the contractor informed us that she had to cancel our reservation because of health issues in her immediate family and would not be in the area during the needed time. That really put us in dilemma to find someone in such short time. So we searched the Rover site and found several, but all the family agreed to contact Melissa... There were several things that greatly impressed us about Melissa. First there were the reviews. While there were not many, Melissa's reviews were actually very accurate and factual about the care that our Milu would receive. They spoke of the great love she had for animals, as we all experienced firsthand. As I had mentioned, our babies had not been away from us and Milu is very timid with strangers. So, we were surprised when we actually brought her to Melissa and after Milu s brief inspection of her new abode (Lol), she was right there, on the couch and happy as can be. I know that animals sense our love for them and I was amazed at how comfortable she was at that time. Later photos, which Melissa sent through the week, also confirmed how tranquil our precious niña was. In fact, when I returned a week later for Milu, she went to Melissa, not to me and she actually cried when I took her away. That experience was special to me and I knew then that our family had made the correct decision in choosing Melissa. Another proof to me that Milu was very comfortable there, was how she interacted with Melissa's young son. Normally, she runs and hides from children, but the pictures showed her actively playing with the boy! I have never seen her do this with any other children, but my own. I can think of no other magic that could have done that, but love. Yes, I am and family are so pleased with the decision we made to contract Milu's care with Melissa. I think that anyone who loves their pet would also have the same impressions with Melissa's care. I almost never write reviews, but felt the need to express my thoughts and feelings with this one. Thank you Melissa for taking care of our Milu! And, I actually do think that Milu misses you!!!!”

“Dianna is always great with Toby, she treats him like one of own pets, they take walks and Toby gets a lot of playtime in their backyard with her dogs! She is excellent!”

“Haley has always been super responsive and is so great with both my dogs. My two pups love when Haley comes to take care of them. I don't know what I would have done without her help with my pups. She has saved my butt time and time again. She is reliable, dependable, responsive and flexible. Would recommend her to anyone for their furry family members!”

“She was so happy and good at sending updates of him and his time with her! She was patient with our crazy travel schedule. Will for sure book again!”

“I highly recommend Kristin for their boarding. My dog is very high energy and is anxious when boarded. Kristin did everything she could to make sure she felt comfortable and reduced her stress while she stayed there. Very reasonable prices and a nice boarding area. We will be using them from now on!”

“Tops. Shelly is very friendly, and gives us daily updates with pictures. I highly recommend her.”

“My dog had an amazing time, Nicole and her family were very nice and communicated quickly, they have a fenced yard and my dog made a best friend with one of her dogs. She sent pictures of my dog as well which were very cute!”

“Heather dog sat for our family this summer. We have a 110 LB pit bull who is very loving with all the energy of a 2-year-old pitty. Heather was great with her, reliable and thanks to her we could enjoy our time away from home (5 days). Heather came to our home several times during the day to feed and let our dog out. We have a fenced in yard, where she hung out with our pup and played fetch and tug of war with her. she was wonderful and we definitely plan on having her back for our next long weekend away. I would recommend Heather to anyone looking for help with their furry family. she is prompt, trustworthy and most of all very caring with animals (and even enjoyed the jump-up full face kisses our pup gives).”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have taken care of others’ pets as well. I dog sit multiple dogs at a time while family friends go on vacation or are unable to be at home. Sometimes this means taking care of their pets for 10 days or more. I walk, feed, bathe and entertain pets. I can work any day of the week. I currently have a part time job but my hours are very flexible! Taking care of your pet brings me just as much joy to me as it does convenience to you. I have a large, fenced in yard and Mill Creek Park just behind the fence, so your pet will have plenty of room to run, play or relax.
