Michele was probably the best sitter that I’ve had yet, and I’ve had a lot! My dogs have some anxiety and are scaredy cats but that didn’t bother her one bit. She sent daily pictures of my Murphy boy and kept me updated constantly. She left my house spotless. She’s a treasure!!

Rebecca is great! My pups adore her. They are both on several medications and she is great at administering them. She also is quick to reply and sends pictures often. I trust her completely with my home and babies.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I’ve had Oliver (frenchie) since he was a puppy, so I’m used to everything from training to daily routines. He requires allergy medication, which means I’m comfortable giving meds and paying close attention to a dog’s needs. I also frequently care for my family’s three dogs (two Frenchies and an English bulldog), so I’m great at handling multiple pups and making sure each one gets the attention they deserve. I’m currently working 3rd shift, so if you’re needing someone in the morning to let out your furry pet I can! Or if you want someone home all day with your pet, that works perfect for me as well! I can do walks during the days (after a little nap). I would say I’m pretty flexible if told ahead of time! I live in an apartment and do have a dog named Oliver. Oliver pretty much gets along with other dogs! If you’d rather your dog not be around another, I’d be more than willing to stay with your pets! My cousin would love watching my dog. I love meeting new fur babies and would love to help whenever I can with whatever you need!

Justin took care of our poochers for a test night. Our one doggie takes a bit longer to warm up, and Justin was kind enough to do multiple meet and greets, and a test night. He's been patient, caring, and accommodating to get the furries comfortable. Couldn't recommend him enough!

About: I have been watching since I was 20 years old. I watched friends dogs, siblings dogs and I used to have a Jack Russell beagle mix. His name was Milo. I work Monday through Friday, but I drove a truck. I’m on the road all day so I have the ability to come home. Check on the animals play with them. Feed them walk them throughout the day. I usually get off at 4 PM. No matter if I’m in some ways home or the animals are at my house I love to go out for walks with dogs and play with pets in general pet them. Let them sit on my life and just spend time with them so they never feel lonely.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for a long time. While babysitting when I was 10 I also dog sat for the summer. I also let out my neighbors dog on holidays when they are out of town with family as well as feed on a schedule. I am a current college student who attends the University of Cincinnati and home for the summer and I work part time as a Home Health Aide. Outside of being the Home Health Aide I have plenty of time to assist families who may be unable to provide care amongst vacations and work schedule. I am also eager to walk dogs for a long period of time and take part in some enrichment activities. I can easily crate your dog if needed and am willing to play with any dogs for a long period of time. Providing enrichment filled activities to keep animals entertained. As well as long walks around the neighborhood if comfortable to do so.

About: I've cared for many pets during my life including exotics, cats, dogs, and birds in all age groups from babies to seniors. I will treat your fur babies like my own. I am currently retired with my husband. We eschool our twin boys during the day. I can pop out to do pet care and have a flexible schedule. We do travel a lot during school breaks and in the summer. I am eager to help out with home visits or walks. I enjoy all kinds of pets and don't shy away from those who need special care. Typically I visit dogs in their homes three times per day at whatever schedule works best for the pet and me. Some may need more or less visits and I can be flexible. I do not care for dogs or cats in my home. My two cats don't like other pets, unless it's a pet that lives in a small crate or cage, such as a guinea pig.

I could see the love that Kylie had for animals when we first met with her. She came by twice in advance of our trip to get the dogs, especially Miller, comfortable with her. The only thing that keeps me from giving her 5 stars is that except for the first day, I had to initiate any check-ins with her. Once I did that, she sent pictures, updates, etc. She did say her messages were not going through but I would expect, since she had my number, she would send text updates. I hope she gets that resolved, as I would book with her again.

Bansi took wonderful care of our two pups while my wife and I went away for a few days. We’ve only ever had close friends or family watch our pups for us, so we were a bit nervous trying to find someone through Rover who would spoil and care for them as much as we do, all on pretty short notice. Those nerves quickly went away from the minute we did the initial meet and greet with Bansi in person. From that point all the way until the moment she left our home, she was very professional and communicative with updates (and photos) throughout the weekend, making the process that much easier. We will definitely be booking with Bansi again the next time we need someone to take care of our pups, and would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone you can trust to spoil your fur-babies while you’re away - you will not be disappointed! Thank you again, Bansi!
