“Julia is the best! Thanks so much for taking care of our cat while we had our wedding. Even extended it to the night before last minute and she was able to start the visit early.”

“Alex was amazing at watching our cat for a week while we were away. She was extremely responsive and communicative and took great care of our kitty. We would definitely seek Alex’s help again!”

“My experience with Leah was wonderful! She promptly responded to my initial request and we scheduled a Meet and Greet at my home. She showed obvious knowledge of animals and asked pertinent questions about caring for my cats. While I was gone I received daily check-ins through the Rover app with several pictures. It was clear that my cats were comfortable with her, and enjoyed her petting! My kitchen was left very clean. I am very pleased to have found Leah and highly recommend her services.”

“Stephanie did a great job caring for our cat. She kept us well informed with a detailed report card. Glad we could find someone close by and so accommodating.”

“Jeannie was fantastic! She took excellent care of our cat, provided updates on how he was doing and lots of pictures of when they were together. I was a bit leery of using Rover following a terrible experience a friend had, but Jeannie was professional, came when she said she would, and was all around terrific. I would 100% recommend her services to anyone who needs an amazing pet sitter. Denali (and I) give two paws (thumbs) up. Thank you Jeannie ! 😻 😊”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 12 years, growing up around pets and farm animals and continuing that passion throughout college. I recently graduated from Berea College and plan to attend veterinary school, so providing thoughtful, attentive care to animals is truly meaningful to me. During college, I worked on a farm caring for livestock including cattle, poultry, and swine. I monitored their health, assisted with vaccinations and routine care, and learned to recognize early signs of illness and stress in animals. I also worked as a Veterinary Assistant at Tennessee Avenue Animal Hospital, where I cared for dogs, cats, and exotic pets such as hamsters and lizards. I checked vital signs, assisted with treatments and surgeries, collected lab samples, and ensured animals were comfortable and safe during their stay. In high school, I participated in a program at the Cincinnati Zoo, and in college I conducted hands on research with goats. These experiences strengthened my understanding of animal behavior, enrichment, and species specific care. What sets me apart is my medical awareness and ability to notice subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or energy. Whether your pet is young, senior, shy, energetic, or requires medication, I am comfortable providing patient, attentive care tailored to their needs. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am currently studying as I prepare for higher education, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to dedicate quality time to pet care. I truly enjoy having animal breaks throughout my day, whether that is a walk, a play session, a feeding visit, or quiet companionship time. Because I structure my days around studying, I can stay consistent with your pet’s normal routine. I am available for walks, and sitting throughout the week, and I am happy to discuss specific timing needs to ensure your pet receives reliable and attentive care. Caring for animals is something I intentionally make time for! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With my background as a veterinary assistant and farm caregiver, I am trained to recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort and respond appropriately. In your home, I will treat your space with respect and care as if it were my own. I follow all instructions closely, maintain feeding schedules, refresh water, monitor litter boxes or outdoor areas, and ensure doors, gates, and crates are properly secured. I am comfortable administering medications if needed and can provide regular updates with photos so you feel confident and at ease while you are away. You can trust that your pet will receive patient, responsible, and thoughtful care every visit. :)
About: I'm ready to help you out by taking care of your cute pets! I guarantee I will treat your pet with love as if they were my own Phantom (4 year old black lab). I work from home Mondays & Fridays. I am available to have drop in care in the mornings and evenings. If your pal is staying with me, I will have partner (also with extensive pet care experience) let them out when I am in office, as he works from home. I'll be keeping a watchful eye on your pet. Even if you allow your pet some independence or none at all, I will be creating an environment where me, your pet, and you are comfortable.
“Cathy does a terrific job of taking care of our three elderly cats. In addition to their feeding, cleanup and play time, she talks with us about new ideas for getting medicine into Mischa, encouraging the three cats to eat, and managing the work that comes with keeping a three cat house fresh and tidy! She is timely, reliable and genuine! Thanks so much, Cathy!”

“Marion was so generous while checking on our cats during the holidays. She gave them extra love and attention above and beyond what we expected! We came home to very happy cats that were almost disappointed it was us walking in the door rather than her! Thank you so much, Marion!!”

“Alexa was truly a cat whisperer with my two cats. She approached them on their terms (because cats don’t always warm up immediately!!) and I was rewarded with many pictures and videos of both my cats enjoying her company. She made sure to play and snuggle the cats, giving them fulfilling visits alongside the basic food/litter necessities. I also appreciated that she paid careful attention to the litter habits. I have two boys, and those are known to get urinary problems as they are older. She did a wonderful job communicating her visits and sent plenty of pictures and videos so I could get my cat fix from afar! Alexa also proved flexible when my flight was almost cancelled, confirming that she would be available to continue checking in on them. I’ll definitely book with her again!!”
About: Hello All! I grew up with lots of dogs always in the house. Big and small I loved them all dearly and miss them. Would like to meet as many dogs (or any other animal!) as possible in my lifetime :) If your dog wants snuggles or long walks or both, I'd love to help. I foster dogs and rabbits, at which times I will be marked unavailable on my calendar since they need to be as comfortable as possible. I don't take more than 1 dog at a time unless they are from the same home. Experience with all size dogs, all ages and giving meds. Child free and smoke free household. **New clients: see photos for $20 off coupon code I'm currently working FT but w/ telework, I can be with your best friend all day long and they won't be left alone. Long lunchtime walks are a specialty :) I have a large basement 1 bdrm with windows in a wooded area. Make sure they are up on their flea and tick treatment! Fur babies are allowed on the furniture and bed and will be treated like royalty.

“Jeannine went above and beyond helping out with the special needs of one of my cats. What I most appreciated was her willingness to be trained to administer subcutaneous fluids. Jeannine gracefully managed some of the pitfalls that are part of the learning curve with SubQ fluids. She was also patient and warm with my shy and skittish cat who can be a challenge to corral! On being held, my kitty responded well to Jeannine and was relaxed during the procedure. This was my first time using Rover. Thanks to Jeannine, it was a great experience. She has a pleasant disposition, and she communicated well through the Rover app. She was reliable, showing up right on time for the most part (and getting in touch if there was any delay). I would definitely consider Jeannine again for future cat sitting needs.”


About: I've reliably taken care of my own pets and those of friends, family and neighbors for 10 plus years. I'm flexible to care for each animal depending on their specific personality and needs. I currently work four days a week, so I have Saturday through Mondays available to dog/cat-sit and dog-walk. I have a few upcoming weeks where my office if closed, so I have even more availability. I have a fenced in yard with two friendly beagles and a well-tempered cat. I ensure the animals are safe from any harmful materials and foods. I also have plenty of toys and energy to give each animal plenty of attention.
