About: All my life i’ve been surrounded by animals of all sorts; dogs, cats, chickens, horses, turtles, you name it and ive had it! I think it’s very important that us caretakers provide all needs for your furry(and non-furry) friends! Some animals have certain accommodations like extra play time, long walks, attention, meal plans, or even separation from other animals in the house that i believe must always be met. Making sure your animal feels loved and cared for even in absence from their owners is also crucial in helping keep our animal family happy! Having many animals of my own (1 dog, 8 cats, a turtle, a lizard, and chickens) caring for these animals has become a daily routine. Being away for school definitely puts a riff in my routine of animal care so i’m always looking for a way to spend some extra time with animals even if they’re not my own. My dog has terrible anxiety and needs extra care. She is often let out to run free in our backyard. Out 8 cats need fed and watered multiple times a day with one of our cats liking the great outdoors as well. The lizard and turtle need fed on a different schedule as they don’t get fed daily. Litter boxes and other animal dropping are cleaned in a daily basis along with any other mess that comes along with pet ownership. Regular baths and grooming are also necessary for the proper care of all animals.
“Marie and her husband Jorge were absolutely wonderful! Latte can be quite bit shy around new people and places, but Marie and Jorge made her feel at home. They provided excellent communication and sent a ton of photos. Latte looked like she had a blast playing and made several new friends! They even went above and beyond to make sure Latte ate her meals. We truly had a wonderful experience with them and wouldn't hesitate to book with them again in the future. ❤️”
“Ramona was everything her positive reviews said she was and more. She provided us exceptional care, and was very accommodating. She sent pictures and updates throughout the stay. We will deff refer and use again.”
“We absolutely loved Tina an Rick. I felt like my dog(Milo) was very well taken cared for and in loving hands. We received daily updates that included pictures or videos. We also had an emergency and had to extend his stay and they were very accommodating. I also loved how they included at the end of his stay a little report of how his stay was. I will definitely use them again as i felt like they really treated my baby as they would their own dog.”
“Debra took great care of my Boston terrier Oliver. He had to be on antibiotics and a painkiller at the time and she administered the pills to him daily. I am truly grateful he loved playing with her two little dogs too.”
“Shannnon was amazing with my boys! I’ve never really left them with anyone but family and she made me feel like they were her family! She sent lots of photos and updated me throughout their stay! I would be happy to let my dogs go stay with her any time I needed! The dogs didn’t want to come back home when I picked them up!”
“We really appreciated that our pup came back tired and happy from his time with Christopher and Tricia. They provided some helpful updates and photos throughout his stay and were great about showing us the space he’d be staying in so everyone was comfortable. We’ll definitely consider rebooking with them the next time!”
“My original sitter canceled the morning before my trip. I was frantically trying to find a new sitter and Kathleen let me book quickly without hesitation. I am so thankful for that! I recieved messages and pictures while away and I could tell Myles had a great time and was well taken care of. Thanks again!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am very passionate and giving them their best life. I have five dogs by myself. They have the best life the best care the best love having me as their mommy. I would love to share my passion with other fur babies and give other dogs a chance to live their best life! I can care for all ages and all types. My dogs are very friendly and loving to other dogs. I have a huge backyard and a home for them to go in and out of all day long. They can jump on the furniture, the house is built for a pack of dogs. My house and yard are clean and safe. I can train and groom as well. I am available every weekday and every weekend, no matter the time of day or night. My everyday life involves a routine with all the dogs from morning to night! I have a backyard fence in and house that is designed for dogs. I will watch them all day playing and running around. I will give them breakfast and lunch or dinner. I will make sure water is always provided! I can train puppies while I watch them. I will provide toys of all kinds and dog pool! I have a fully graveled yard, they will stay clean even with rain! I can bath, cut nails and groom dogs as well! I spoil every dog personally.
“She was awesome! She was easy to communicate with and was super friendly. She seemed to really enjoy having my puppy and she sent me the cutest pictures! I felt great leaving my baby with her! He seemed to love his stay too.”
“Angela was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our dog! From the moment we met her, we could tell she genuinely cares about animals. She was attentive, responsible, and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy and well cared for when we returned. Angela followed all of our instructions perfectly, including feeding instructions and walks. We will definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
About: I have spent my life caring for and loving dogs! I’ve raised many dogs of my own and have also helped my children care for their puppies over the years. I currently have two Golden Retrievers, a Bichon Poodle, and a Yorkshire Terrier. Throughout my life, I’ve raised and cared for Vizslas, Shih Tzus, Labradors, mixed breeds, and more. Anything from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. This experience has made me comfortable caring for dogs of all different sizes, personalities, activity levels, and life stages. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’ll care for your dog with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. I currently work as a mail carrier, typically from about 7 AM–1 PM. I’m an early bird, so I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, feeding, or playtime before I leave for work. I’m usually home for the rest of the day after work, which gives me lots of time for walks, outdoor time, play, and cuddles with your pup! Outside of my work hours, I’m home most days and love spending time in my yard with my dogs, so caring for another pup fits naturally into my everyday routine. I have a large yard with plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors, as well as a secure lead for pups who love spending time outside. I am also used to walking dogs on lease so that would be no issue at all. I’m typically outside in my yard every morning and again in the afternoon (sometimes through the evening) when I get home, so your pup will have plenty of opportunities for fresh air, playtime, and supervision. My dogs are total lovebugs and are used to sharing their home with other pups! My Golden Retrievers, Dale and Luke, enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and would be happy to have another friend around. For smaller or younger dogs, my Yorkshire Terrier, Lucy, is just under a year old and loves having a playmate. (Sam, my Bichon poodle is around 16 years old so he doesnt play very much lol). My dogs tend to follow me wherever I go, and your pup would be welcome to join our little crew! I know every dog has a different personality and comfort level, so I’m happy to follow your normal routines and preferences. If your pup needs some quiet time, prefers their own space, or needs to be separated from the other dogs at any point, I can safely crate them or provide space away from the group based on your instructions. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable leaving your pup with me. I’ll treat them as part of the family while respecting the routines, boundaries, and care instructions you provide.
“My dog Jojo and her cousin Ruby spent 6 nights with Kathy while my family was on vacation with my sister’s family. I was very nervous to leave Jojo, because she had never been left with anyone else before since getting her as a puppy in 2020. Kathy was wonderful! She was so kind and caring towards the dogs. It was so great to get her daily texts and pictures! I could tell both Jojo and Ruby were so well taken care of, and I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation. I would most definitely have Kathy take care of Jojo again. ;)”
“Leonard and his family were wonderful, they sent pictures multiple times a day and treated my pup as if he were their own! Thank you so much!!!! Will book with again.”
“Alicia was great! Lilly had a fun time relaxing and playing! Alicia was very responsive, answered questions promptly, and sent pics and videos of Lilly! We just moved here and were nervous about leaving Lilly so soon after moving, but felt comfortable after we did a short meet and greet. Lilly was very happy...and we were too!”
“Cathy kept my rescue puppy,Tanner, for a week. Tanner is generally skiddish of people but warmed right up to Cathy without even trying! You can certainly tell she has a deep passion of caring for animals! We received pictures or videos daily, which was so nice! She even made sure to socialize him with neighbor humans and pets alike!! I will definitely be using Cathy’s services again!”

So glad I found Angelina to watch my Labradoodle, she had never had experience with one before and they can be a handful, anxious, attention seeker, busy…she did great! He loved staying there and all family members were great with him. She stayed in contact and sent pics, highly recommend her, I was able to relax knowing he was in great hands!!
Our experience with Jan was awesome. She is well suited to care for dogs, loving, caring, attention to detail. Piper was so well cared for while we were out of town. Jan sent us many updates and pictures of Piper that we had no worries or concerns. We would use Jan again to watch our pup hands down!
Shayna was incredible at caring for my furbaby. She went above and beyond in her care including always communicating with me through out. I think she is the best on Rover! I was nervous leaving my little one for days without me and in a strangers care, but she clearly made it easier and which gave me the confidence that my doggy would be well cared for! Boy was I right! I will book her again as my Yorkie seemed to love her lots. If you ask me she needs to open her own doggy daycare business!!!! Thank you again Shayna!!! My little one came back so happy and full of joy after being with you!!!
Our first Rover experience with Kaishin exceeded our already high expectations. We were reassured daily that Fiona was safe and content which enhanced our travel experience knowing she was happy. We are grateful to Kaishin and hope she will consider watching Fiona in the future.
Sadie is absolutely wonderful! She watched our puppy Kovu for 5 nights and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the start, she was so understanding of his needs. She sent us daily pictures, videos, and progress updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Kovu was having a great time with her, her son, and her dog. He came home just as happy as when he left! We completely trust her and are so grateful to have found someone who loves our pup like we do. Highly recommend and we'll definitely be booking with her again!

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
