Top rated Union dog sitters

“Jessalyn has been absolutely wonderful. An integral part of the first few months of our puppy’s life. She always shows up on time and goes above and beyond when she is here. Highly recommend!!”


“Joseph fed our cats twice a day and stuck to the schedule we requested. He was timely and provided updates throughout our trip. He went above and beyond by removing the litter box trash from the apartment and refilling the food storage container.”


“Sophia was very good! I left instructions and she wasn’t confused about anything and didn’t have to ask me anything. I can tell she cares for animals and I felt safe with them in her care especially this being my first time using rover. She exceeded my expectations.”


“Blake did a great job checking on our cats while we were away! He was even able to help with the inhaler for our cat with asthma and feed our bearded dragon. Would definitely recommend Blake!”


“This was my first time using Rover and Payton was amazing! She communicated well and was so sweet. Plus, my dogs absolutely loved her! 🩷 I will definitely be booking her again for future trips. 😊”


About: As a pet sitter, my greatest joy comes from the wagging tails and purrs of contentment I receive from the animals in my care. Each pet is unique, and I take pride in understanding their individual needs and personalities. Whether it's a playful pup who loves fetch or a cuddly cat who enjoys a good nap, I ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away. Knowing that I can provide peace of mind to pet parents and a comfortable environment for their furry friends is what makes pet sitting so rewarding for me. I am freshly graduated from empire beauty cosmetology school. I now work in a restaurant so I have mornings and early afternoons available and nights. I have 2 dogs at home and used to have a cat. Everyday it is my duty to feed, water, and play with my pups to keep them happy and healthy, and I can do the same for yours!

“Nigel was so wonderful from start to finish. He was great about communicating and asking questions about specifically what we needed. We were nervous because we had never left our cat in the care of someone we weren’t related to before, but Nigel made us feel so much better with a meet n greet beforehand. It was clear that Nigel took great care of her and that she was so comfortable with him. He made sure to complete all the care tasks we asked of him and sent us pictures so we could see our cat while we were gone. We will definitely book with him again.”


About: I’ve had my dog since he was 10 weeks old and he is almost 11 now. I treat my dog as if he was my child and that’s how I treat every dog I take care of. I watch my sister and parent’s dogs frequently as well so I am used to taking care of 3 dogs on my own at one time. Our dogs are a part of the family and even go on vacation with us! I’d love to take care of your pet for walks and visits to get them out while you are gone! I’m currently in graduate school at UC and my visits will depend on when I have class during the week. School is my full-time job so when I’m not in class I can be available for pet visits. I will care for your dog in your home just as you do and spend time with them to keep them company in the comfort of their own home! I do have a fenced in backyard if I ever need to board your dog at my house.

About: I’ve had experience pet sitting for dogs, cats, and rodents. I also worked with Toedters Isle of Frenchies (ethical frenchie breeders) and volunteer at Shane’s Kitty Adoption Center. I’ve studied animal science and vet science through Murray State. I have also gained a lot of experience through owning animals of my own, such as dogs, cats, and other small animals. I currently work part time, I updated my schedule weekly. Weekend afternoons are typically free, I also make sure to update my schedule though. Hopefully I’ll get to make more furry friends and ease your mind while you’re animal is in safe care:) I always make sure animals are comfortable with me first. Letting them sniff me, helping them stay relaxed, feeling unthreatened. I’ll follow any certain steps you need if your animal requires special care. I like my animals to have a clean home, which includes cleaning food and water bowls daily, wiping out cages, fresh blankets. So I’ll make sure your animal is treated just as well!

“My adorable Kitten absolutely loved Alyssa as her caretaker when I was gone for two weeks. I can tell they loved each other and became best of friends right from the start. That means the most, it assures me that my fur baby is happy and safe with Alyssa. She did an amazing job entertaining Kitten and updating me with lots of photos! I will be using Alyssa again in the near future and would highly recommend her for your pets.”


About: I've taken care of friends and family dogs for years while they are away. I'm flexible with scheduling and will care for your fur baby as if they were my own. I currently work full time during the day however I have plenty of time in the evenings to care for your fur babies as well as overnight stays. I offer care for your pet in your home. I will also check your mail and water plants if you would like for me to.

“Brooke was absolutely amazing! She was so easy to communicate with and she sent lots of photos. It was so nice to be able to leave for the day and know that our pup was getting taken care of.”


About: **I’m currently offering lower rates than I normally would in order to get my foot in the door with Rover! :) I can also give first-time users $20 OFF their first booking with my Rover promo code, just start a booking with me and I will share it with you! Thank you so much for supporting a Rover newbie! 💗** Hi! 🤗🐕🩷 I’m Alexus and I have been baby-sitting (pets & humans!) for over 7 years now for family, friends, neighbors, and even strangers who have simply heard good things about me from others! People have kept me as their sitter for years because they know they can count on me to be responsible, attentive, communicative, & honest with them while their babies are in my care! 🐶🐱🐰🐹 I’m down-to-earth, calm, and will always be patient & kind to animals of any kind and will respect your home with utmost care. 🏡💕 When you are missing your babies, don’t hesitate to ask for an extra picture or video of them if you want more! I love taking cute photos of every animal I meet and will spoil them with affection. 🌅💗🐩 I will also strictly adhere to any checklist or request that you have— my mission is to give your baby the stability, love, and care that they expect in their daily routine. Whether it is sitting, boarding, walking, or basic grooming, I will provide the home away from home for them by meticulously following directions for specific exercise regimens, dietary restrictions, training (e.g. taking a puppy out to potty every 30-45 min. & rewarding with praise & treat), medication administration, etc. 🍼🧴🧸🎾💊🦮 I will NEVER, under any circumstance, use punishment or fear-instilling tactics. I am a lifelong dog-lover and a dedicated advocate of humane training & treatment of animals. I am Pet First Aid Certified and dedicated to prioritizing pet safety & comfort in order for them and their parents (you!) to be stress-free. ❤️🐾🌎 I can’t wait to meet-and-greet with you & your fur baby! 🫶🐾 I am a full-time dedicated professional pet care provider for families local to the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area. I understand what it’s like to need a last-minute booking, and I will happily take same-day requests! I am currently available 24/7 for all pet care needs. In my home, your babies will enjoy a squeaky clean, comfortable newly-remodeled living room and guest bedroom, as well as a .5-acre fenced-in backyard (will remain leashed while outside) with enriching landscape in a cozy, quiet tucked-away neighborhood. I allow doggies on the couches, but will gladly redirect any dogs away from furniture through positive reinforcement (NEVER PUNISHMENT) if you would like. In your home, I will meticulously adhere to every standard you request and proactively communicate with you regarding in-home checklists as needed.

About: I have always had a passion for animals. I would go over to my neighbors and friends all the time to play with their dogs. I was all my neighbors dogs best friend. I was there for my one neighbor, when her dog was dying. I would also go on walks with the owners and their dogs. I also have a passion for cats too. All my neighbors had cats that loved me too. I am pregnant with my first kid that will be due in January 2025. Right now, I'm just at home doing random things in the house. Being pregnant limits me to a lot of things. I have all day to drop by and take care of your dogs anytime during the day. Having a passion for animals and having a dog myself is a great thing in life. I have a Jack Russell/Boxer mix. He will be about 13 years old this year. He still acts like he is 5 tho. My dog is a Houdin dog. There has been several times that he has jumped fences, dug under fences, Ran out the door, escaped his harness. He also comes back eventually. Jack Russells are high energy and territorial dogs. We keep him on a leed outside and he does great on that. I have thought him a few tricks. Over all he listens to me pretty well. He never gets people food unless we drop or spill something. We will give him meet, eggs, and bananas sometimes.

“Brooklyn did a great job! We are so grateful she was able to taking care of our for the weekend! We appreciate the updates and the pictures, it's so reassuring to know they're well looked after and loved on! We would definitely love for her to come back again!!!”


About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have experience from puppies to adulthood. I also have experience with senior dogs that need extra care. I have a full-time job. I’m happy to do drop ins later in the afternoon and availability on weekends. I am open to discussing more times. When I take my dogs for walks, they’re on leashes. I do have knowledge of using crates. They are valuable tools. I will care for your pets per your requirements.

About: I absolutely love pets and will do my best to make them comfortable in my care! I consider pets to be family, and I will treat yours as u do my own. I am currently a stay at home mom who has a lot of free time during the daytime hours while my child is in school. I would be a great fit for daily walks or drop ins! I will treat your home with the same respect as if it were my own. I will leave it as it was when I am complete on my care session.

About: I know how hard it can be to find someone you trust with your dogs while you are away. I have had dogs my entire childhood and adulthood, and fully understand how important they are as members of the family. I work a fully remote job, so I am home all day every day. I have an older dog that requires a lot of potty breaks and also a younger dog that requires outside playtime to get her zoomies out, so dogs of any ages will fit right into our schedule! I have a fenced in yard that will keep all pets in the yard. I have a 13 year old German Shepherd who is past her prime in playing, but loves to take naps. I have a 3 year old Golden Retriever who will be the absolute best friend to any dog she meets.

It's a great feeling to have someone you know you can trust to keep your pets safe and loved while you're away.”
