About: My last pet was a 16 year old miniature schnauzer who passed in December 2024. Since then I have been caring for dogs and cats of family & friends and traveling around the country using Trusted Housesitters. I have cared for German Shepherds and Bengal cats in New Orleans, an elderly dog in Charleston, and multiple rescue cats in Virgina Beach. In Denver, I covered a dog walking business for 3 weeks walking labs, collies, poodle mixes, dachshunds and house sitting up to 5 dogs at a time. Now when I'm back home in the Cincy area, I like to help others care for their dogs and cats. My schedule allows for me to change my routine as needed. I understand pets have routine and may need to be on a regular schedule. I can care for your pets in your home by following their routines, entertaining and playing with them, and giving them love and attention. I am not able to care for pets in my home at this time.
“Kelly did an incredible job taking care of our babies. We felt good leaving them in her hands. She sent the cutest pictures and was consistent with her check in times. We would use her again 100 times!”
About: I'm an animal lover through and through. I have cats, dogs, and fish at home that have been apart of the family for a long while! On top of meeting their daily needs, I've also attended a large animal science program where I learned first aid, honed my animal husbandry skills, and got experience handling animals of all types! My schedule is very open the majority of the time, so there should be no problems there. If I am busy on a particular day, I'll be sure to mark it as unavailable on my schedule asap! I am able to feed, water, play with, and keep company dogs and cats of all types. I will respect their space if they're skittish or shy, and keep the social ones entertained. I would also love to take your dogs on walks!
“Avery was outstanding!! She made us feel comfortable leaving our cats. She sent lots of pictures that made us smile. We knew they were in very good hands. Would definitely use her services again.”
“Hope C. is so great! She was responsible, and responsive while watching our two cats. Hope was great with our cats, and keeping them nourished! I would absolutely ask Hope C. to watch our cats again!”
“Paige was absolutely amazing with my two kittens while I was away on vacation. She kept me updated, made sure they were well cared for, and genuinely treated them like her own. What really stood out to me was how attentive she was she noticed right away that one of my kittens wasn’t feeling well and immediately let me know so I could get her to the vet. I’m so grateful for her care, communication, and attention to detail. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pets were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Paige to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

Always up to answer those questions and concerns, you can rely on me to be there for you and your dog. I tend to specialize in small dogs and other small animals.

About: I’m a dependable, caring pet lover who treats every dog like family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to build trust and make each walk a positive experience. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, including energetic dogs who need plenty of exercise, as well as senior dogs who may prefer a slower, more relaxed pace. I’m attentive to body language and behavior and prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort at all times. Whether your dog needs an active walk, some extra exercise and playtime, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll provide dependable care and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, routines, leash preferences, and other special needs. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is in caring, responsible hands while you’re away. I'm currently in a remote position making my scheduling flexible, thus my schedule is open all 7 days throughout the week. I look forward to hearing what you need! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and respect while making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their environment. For walks, I use safe leash-handling practices and stay attentive to my surroundings, other animals, traffic, and anything that could make a pet uncomfortable or unsafe. I never rush a dog and adjust the pace and length of the walk based on their age, energy level, and individual needs. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away. I’m respectful of your home, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your pet has access to fresh water and anything else you’ve provided for their care. I’ll keep you updated throughout the visit and communicate promptly if I notice anything unusual with your pet. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being cared for as if they were my own.
“Jessica was attentive, sincere, and happy to engage our cat above and beyond our expectations. We had just laid out for her to feed and make sure he got his pill, but she also spent time socializing, playing, and even cleaned out the cat box without us asking her to. We thought he loved us, until we saw the photos she sent from her visits. She won him over and surely made our absence more bearable for him. 11/10 will contact again next time we need a cat sitter!”
“Allie took great care of Molly again with no issues! We appreciated her being available during the holiday weekend and loved seeing the sweet pictures of Molly playing and cuddling. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, happy, and loved, so I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic and playful or calm and snuggly. My goal is always to create a comfortable, fun, and loving environment where your pet feels right at home. You can trust that they’ll be in caring hands and treated like part of the family 🐾💛 Between me and my husband, we do both work currently Monday-Friday. I am usually home by 4:45 PM, and leave around 7:50 am, my husband is usually home no later than 3:30 pm. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In my home, dogs enjoy plenty of space and freedom on our 3.25-acre property, with partially fenced areas for safe outdoor play and exploration. Our three-bedroom home offers a calm, comfortable environment where dogs can relax and feel at home. I tailor care to each dog’s routine and preferences. Whether your dog is used to sleeping in a kennel at night or prefers to sleep outside or uncrated, I’m happy to accommodate what they’re most comfortable with. Throughout the day, dogs get lots of supervised playtime, exercise, and attention—there’s never a shortage of love or fun here. I can administer medications as directed and always follow feeding schedules and special instructions. I also provide daily photo and message updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel confident they’re happy and well cared for. Most importantly, I truly love dogs of all kinds and make sure each one gets plenty of time, patience, and personalized care so they feel safe, comfortable, and excited during their stay.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
