“Julia and her husband were great with my dog. Even though my pup had a hard time for a bit, (anxious that I left) they calmed her down with a walk and made sure she got comfortable. My dog enjoyed playing with theirs, I am thankful that they took good care of her while we were away on thanksgiving weekend.”
“Catherine and Adam did a great job. They sent pictures and updates to let me know how my dog was doing each day. They were very nice people and I was worried about someone new but they made sure I was comfortable with his care. I would recommend them very much but don't want to because I need them free for my doggie. LOL. Thank you very much for them. Also plane was late and they were nice about keeping him when I was in trouble. They get 100% super.”

“Catherine was amazing!! We got daily updates and pictures of our girl and felt like she was in great hands. The communication was awesome and Catherine was so easy to work with. We would definitely book with her again. A+++”

About: The love i have for animals is pure passion. Caring and seeing them through to make sure that they are getting the love and care they deserve, is the impact I hope to bring to your pet. I raised two cats before, rescued a family of cats from the road, and had a dog. I walk about 10 miles a day outside, rain or shine. I am used to regular upkeep with litter boxes and food, there isnt a pet challenge i wouldn’t want to take on. I walk I am a nursing student that has clinicals 2 times a week from 7 am - 3 pm. Other days i have class from 10-2 pm. I usually go on walks all throughout the day. I am home at night and am always chilling on the couch or studying in my room. Pet care will be easy peasy for my everyday life. With clinicals and longer class days, i have 4 other roommates that will be available and would love to take care of the fur baby. When I am home with the pet, they will be getting all the love from me. I have a little yard in my backyard but i also frequently walk at different parks around Dayton. I have a separate room on the 1st floor, easy access, and enough privacy for the dog and for the other girls in the house. In my clients home, i strive to leave the house better than i find it.
“Michelle is an amazing and caring dog sitter. She worked with me as my dates changed which helped me a great deal. She's also well knowledgeable about dog's behavior. I will hire her again for my dog, Josie.”

“Pam was outstanding with our two dogs! She watched them over the Thanksgiving holiday while we were out of town. She sent us pictures and updates daily. We will definitely use Pam again!”


“Angel was amazing! She is not only an exceptional caretaker but knowledgeable, reliable, efficient & devoted. She is professional yet friendly & stayed in contact with us - communication was open not forced. She was available to work around my schedule on very short notice. Demonstrated enormous love & compassion for animals. Her rates are very reasonable for the services she provides. I had a true feeling of trust & peace of mind when leaving my Bubba. You will be dog-gone happy choosing Angel for your caretaking needs 🐾🐶”

“Derik and Megan are wonderful. They took on a challenge or what I would call a challenge by caring for my little boogie baby. They treated him so well as if he was their own. They kept me updated with pictures and text. I wouldn't ask for a better dog sitter. They made us feel at ease with our baby knowing it was our first time ever boarding him. Thank you again!”

“Kristen did an excellent job, and I highly recommend her. I was a little hesitant at first because of the pricing, but once I realized what was included, it made complete sense. Her setup is on a large piece of land that has clearly been customized specifically for pets. There are multiple fenced-in areas where dogs can safely run freely, and it gave me a lot of peace knowing my dog had space, structure, and proper care. Her communication could not have been better. Every time I texted her, she responded within minutes and fully addressed whatever concern I had. I also noticed a real difference in my dog after coming home. Before the stay, my dog would just come up to me and act excited when she needed to go outside. Now she actually cries to be let out, which is much easier to understand. She also seems to pull a lot less when I take her outside, so it honestly feels like some obedience training happened during the stay too. The kennel is climate controlled, the property is very well set up, and Kristen clearly cares about the dogs she watches. She even gave my dog special treats like pup cups with peanut butter and whipped cream. I was honestly worried my dog might not want to come home. If you want to leave your dog somewhere and not have to worry the whole time, this is the place.”

“Morgan did a fantastic job watching our little Theo. She was extremely responsive and communicative - providing numerous updates and photos throughout his stay. Would highly recommend Morgan for any pet sitting needs!”

“Katarzyna and Tim were both super nice people. They sent daily videos of our dog playing. Our dog really enjoyed the pond! They both also responded to texts promptly. We will definitely use them again in the future.”

“My girls loved staying with Daisy. They were happy and well cared for. Daisy sent me an update and a video every day. I’m happy to say they will be staying again for our next trip. Thanks so much!”

“Haley was awesome! Everything listed on her profile is accurate. Our Bailey had a great stay with Haley and her pups. Bailey was there less than 24 hours, but Haley sent us several pictures of her and provided an update of how the stay was going. I would absolutely recommend her and look forward to booking with her again!!”

About: I have a degree in veterinary technology and used to work in clinics and veterinary ER. I personally have three dogs, three guinea pigs a bearded dragon and am fostering a kitten. I take the care of animals to heart and cater my approach to each of their personalities. I can perform CPR if needed and am able to administer medications and help with any specialized needs. I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all ages and can meet their needs. I also can manage exotic animals. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask! I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I keep my dogs on somewhat of a routine as I have semi high energy breeds. Though we do lounge around at home when they’re feeling lazy. I treat all animals with the highest level of care whether it is my own pet or someone else’s. I have my eyes on the pets at all times both inside and outside of the home. I worked in the veterinary field through college and retired in 2024. All that knowledge stays with me and I continue to stay up to date on animal care. You will get regular photo updates of your babies during my drop in’s and/or boarding.
“Karen and Paul were amazing ..They took wonderful care of Bella and were very flexible .. Bella got along very well with them and their dog, Rudy :) I would definitely recommend Karen as a Pet Sitter and would give a five star rating :)”

About: Animals have been a big part of my life since I was born. Our family had pets ranging from cats and dogs to pigs and horses. I worked at a family vet clinic that gave me skills with animals and knowledge of when they just aren't feeling right and contacts of who to call. I also have pet sat for friends and family for 8 years. Your pet will become my own when I pet sit. They will be spoiled and loved and I am very good at following directions exactly. I am blessed to have a very flexible schedule and am able to fit pet care in when needed. I myself currently have one cat and dog who I care for and spoil at home. However they have other family members who step up when I am needed elsewhere. I do not offer care in my home as I have a small apartment and pets of my own. However I make sure to build trust and create a safe and loving environment whenever I enter another's home. I make sure to get all the information I can about the pet I will be caring for and bring instructions with me to make sure I follow them exactly. I will do whatever is suggested to help the pet feel comfortable and loved and I have many tricks from experience with rowdy or shy animals to help if no instructions are offered. I have open communication with my families and love to send pictures and updates to help keep minds at ease.
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my strong experience working with dogs and puppies of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, starting with pets belonging to family and friends, which helped me build a solid foundation of hands-on experience with dogs in everyday home environments. I’m especially comfortable with puppies and understand the patience and consistency they need while learning routines like potty training, crate training, leash walking, and basic commands. I also enjoy helping reinforce positive behaviors through structure, repetition, and lots of encouragement. For adult dogs, I adapt easily to their personality—whether they are high-energy and need plenty of exercise or more relaxed and prefer a calm routine. I also have experience with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, and extra attention to comfort and mobility. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, and behavioral cues, so they feel secure and understood while in my care. My goal is always to create a safe, trusting environment where dogs feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially with my availability in the afternoons and evenings. Since I work part time, I have ample time during the day to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I enjoy spending my evenings going on walks, which would make it easy and consistent for me to provide daily exercise and outdoor time. I also look forward to using my free time for play, feeding, and bonding activities that help build trust and comfort with pets. In my home or a client’s home, I provide pet care with consistency, attentiveness, and respect for the animal’s routine and comfort level. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medication instructions if needed, and any specific preferences the owner provides. I make sure pets always have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean, safe environment. I prioritize daily exercise and enrichment through walks, playtime, and interaction suited to the pet’s age, energy level, and personality. I also focus on building trust through calm, patient handling and positive attention. In a client’s home, I am mindful of maintaining the space exactly as instructed, keeping things clean and secure, and making sure the pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand the importance of routine, so I do my best to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for the pet while their owner is away. Overall, my approach is to care for each pet as if they were my own—providing reliable, loving, and responsible care tailored to their individual needs

Carmen’s home is a ‘family home’ to my fur baby! She never wants to leave Carmen’s home! Carmen is sweet & gentle to her, takes her on walks, watches her do her zoomies in the back yard, and showers her with love, always captured on photos & videos. I’ve been taking my fur baby to Carmen for almost 5 years now and will continue to do so! Highly recommend!

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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.
