“Dana and Jason were great! I appreciate the photos and communication. My pups seem very happy! I think they miss them now that they are home. First time using rover and I will definitely be booking with Dana and Jason again! Thank you!”
“A dream team family took our 16 mos, never left before, Moby, in for the Christmas holiday week. Rachel H., from the get-go, giving us a peek at drop off-nothing, but loving, professional, positivity! It was as if he had a comfy, cozy winter ski lodge retreat brimming with guys just like him. To the stars rating in expert care-all health & happiness concerns covered 100 pct. Looking for excuses to let him savor this beautiful situation again.”
“We were very happy with Kim. She communicates really well and is great with dogs. We were using another sitter and we would get our dog returned a hot mess— but not with Kim. She is very kind, and caters to our dog’s needs and preferences to make their stay very easy and comfortable.”
“Alycia and her husband took wonderful care of Annie! We had a day trip for hospital appointments in Columbus and Annie was a happy girl with them and their cute puggle! We couldn’t be happier with Annie’s stay and know that she was well cared for and well loved. Thanks so much!”
“Ronald watched my puppy over a busy holiday weekend - not a small feat! He was responsive and sent updates throughout the weekend. Highly appreciated and would definitely recommend Ronald!”
“Oscar enjoyed his stay and came home perfectly relaxed from a stress free time away from home. We were very pleased with the care he received from this family!”
“Abbie did such a great job with our pup! She communicates often and clearly. Helped with crate drop off and pick up. We feel very comfortable leaving out dog at her house. He had a great time and came home tired and very happy.”
“Leeann was great! She sent us updates with pictures and took amazing care of our little pup. We were happy to know she had fun and met new doggy friends in the meantime.”
“My boys are pleasantly worn out after a sleepover with their new friends! I loved all the pictures and updates through the day. We will definitely be using Tasha and Joseph again!”
“Nancy has been great with ou senior dog. She makes sure he feels comfortable and safe. Nancy takes him potty often especially because he's a senior dog. She is super flexible and has great communication. Both of her pupps do a great job with Domi as well. We will continue using her as long as she keeps Rovering.”
“Marina and Michael took excellent care of our furry baby while we went on a trip and left her for the first time ever. She sent lots of updates with pics and made it so much easier being without our girl for a week, knowing she was in good hands :-)”
“Jenny was absolutely wonderful! Our first time using rover and she made us feel so confident that Stella was in great hands during our time away. She sent regular updates and photos every day, it was clear Stella trusted her very much!”
“I boarded my sweet 9mo Cavalier puppy with Tricia for a weekend, and it was obvious she had the best time! Daisie looked so happy in each picture Tricia sent and was the sleepiest I’ve ever seen when I picked her up. She had a blast! It was Daisie’s first boarding so I was nervous how she would do, but it all went great. And I appreciated how accommodating Tricia was to my somewhat last minute booking and changing meet/pickup times. It gave me such peace of mind on my trip to know Daisie was being so well cared for. Will be booking again!”
“Jessica was absolutely the best pet sitter! She was so sweet and really loves animals! She has the best setup for watching them in her home! She had a nice area for my cat to be separate if he chose to from her pets - but her pets were awesome also! I highly recommend her to everyone! I had been super anxious and worried about leaving my kitty, but my mind was at ease and I could relax on vaca because I knew my kitty was being extremely well taken care of! She also sent daily pics and notes, which was so great! Thank you so much Jessica!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Jane and would absolutely book again. She took excellent care of my two dogs over for the week and was incredibly thoughtful, caring and communicative. I received updates each day with photos, which really put me at ease on vacation. Jane truly went above and beyond and am so happy with the extra special care she took for my pups. 10/10”
“Kelti & Tanner are awesome! They are committed to accommodating you and your pet in all ways possible (incl. waking up to feed your dog at 5:30 AM/6 AM on weekends) If you're like me, then you are anxious whenever you have to leave your pet. While my big boy (Koda, a 78-pound yellow/white labrador retriever) stayed with with Kelti & Tanner, I knew I had nothing to worry about. That peace of mind is priceless.”
“Patricia was amazing hosting our girlie while we travelled. She is very contentious and a great communicator, I’m a bit over protective and she put me at ease. We will definitely use her again!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been caring for cats since I was three years old, when I got my first cat, Fluffy. I currently share my home with five rescued cats, including two with special needs—one with FIV and another with neurological challenges—which has given me extensive hands-on experience with medical care, behavior monitoring, and daily medications. I also care for a managed colony of twenty cats on my property that I inherited when I bought my home, so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of feline personalities and needs. I have a particular affinity for senior and special-needs cats, including those with anxiety, and I approach their care with patience, consistency, and respect—on their terms, of course.
“Shelby is just THE BEST!! I will ALWAYS have her come if she is available!🥰 She gave me so much comfort and peace of mind! She was so kind and willing to do whatever for my girls♥️ My girls loved her! HIGHLY RECOMMEND🤗”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 16 years old. I am often asked by coworkers of family to house sit during their vacations. I have pet sat dogs, cats, fish, and even chickens! I am comfortable waking, giving medication, and cuddling (my personal favorite), whatever your pup needs! I have two dogs of my own. One of my dogs is a senior and is high need due to his bone cancer. He requires daily medication and will until we are able to remove the leg. My other pup is a rambunctious lab, who is high drive and needs daily stimulation so he doesn’t anger his older brother. I often take him on walks or use the pond near our home to tire him out! I am used to house sitting in all types of homes. If your pup needs a daily walk I am can do that. If they’re an outside pup we can take a walk or even a hike! I stay at the home and don’t leave often. I ask that a physical copy of directions are left so that I can give the 100% proper care and able to contact through phone as well!
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over four years now, pups of all ages!! I’ve been trained to give medication, I’ve been trained to work with animals that have special needs, anything your animal may need I can do! I can do drop bys during the day, stay over night, or even just a simple walk, whatever you may need. My schedule is very flexible and open! Depending on what you need, I can do it! Just know your pet is in good hands and will always be safe in my care.
“Ginger went above and beyond! I just wanted someone to feed Harvey and give him his insulin but she actually cared and played with him! Made me feel better about being gone. Also the Rover Cards I got were some of the cutest pics of him ever!”
“Bethany was absolutely incredible and took perfect care of my boys! She gave them lots of love and attention while I was gone and followed their routine. She went out of her way to make sure they felt comfortable and even gave them something new to play with. She is amazing, thank you Bethany!”
“Hayleigh was absolutely incredible during her check‑in visits with Luna and Charles over the past couple weeks. Her communication was flawless—transparent, detailed, and consistent every single day. I always knew exactly how the pups were doing, and it was clear they adored her. She cared for them as if they were her own, and that peace of mind is priceless. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”
“Alexis was great! The cats were comfortable with her and she was very communicative. There was a plumbing disaster that came up unexpectedly and she notified me immediately + waited around to let maintenance in.”
“Angela did a fantastic job caring for my two cats, including administering insulin twice daily for my diabetic cat, maintaining dietary restrictions, and keeping her well-regulated! Both of my cats seemed super happy and relaxed with her, which is no small feat for the more sensitive one. I felt super comfortable leaving them with her and wouldn't hesitate to have her watch them again!”
About: I’ve had the privilege of growing up with dogs since the age of 10. I’ve never lived in a house without 1-2 dogs. It’s always been a priority of mine to take my dog on at least a 2 mile walk a day if not longer. I have pet sat for families in the past and fostered a puppy in college. Come July I start school T,TH,F from roughly 9-4:30. Otherwise I will be working my PRN job whenever they are in need and I’m available. Over the past 12-14 years I’ve grown up with dogs living in my household. I currently have one medium sized dog, Nala, whom I recused about 5 years ago. She’s a velcro dog and the sweetest they come. She was 5 months old when we adopted her and it’s always been a priority to enforce socialization from day one. When she was almost the age of 2 we bought a German Shepard, Bo, at 8weeks old who she has grown up and lived with over the past 4 years. Regardless of who they are around we make sure to properly introduce everyone who is welcomed into their/our space. After moving to Lexington Nala moved with me as Bo stayed back home. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to run and play. Nala likes to keep to herself most of the time, but highly enjoys walks, treats, and toys.
“Because of the last minute nature of my trip, I was not even able to meet Andrew, but he was very communicative as I was getting ready to go, and my my kitties were well fed, and they seemed pleased with him from the pictures. I would definitely hire again!”
About: What sets me apart is my experience as a former veterinary assistant, which has given me valuable knowledge of feline health, behavior, and daily care. I am comfortable caring for senior cats, monitoring for changes in health or behavior, and providing individualized attention based on each pet's needs. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and stress-free environment so cats feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: While I’m more experienced with dogs than cats, I still have just as big a place in my heart for our feline companions. I’ve had 2 cats in my life, and love a cats more calm, gentle nature as compared to dogs. Their love is more difficult to earn, and some may say that makes it more valuable. Either way, cat parents know there’s a special difference in the way a cat loves us, and it’s something that requires patience and a calm demeanor which is where I thrive as a cat-sitter. Whether you have an energetic and playful kitten, a laid back sunbather, or a nervous scaredy cat who spends most of their time under the bed, I bring intuitive care into your cats space and know how to meet them where they’re at.

“Ryan was wonderful with my two dachshunds. Boarded them during the day while we had workers installing new carpet. Sent pics and videos so I had no worries. They came home tired and happy. Would hire Ryan again.”
“We enjoyed meeting Jonathan! We left Scotty with him while we attended a concert. He is quick to respond to texts and we appreciated his flexibility around not knowing exactly when we could get back. We would happily use Jonathan again to care for our dogs!”
“Matilda had the most amazing day! We got regular updates and fantastic pictures from Amy. To say we were happy is an understatement. We live in FL and we were just passing through and needed day care while we visited the Ark encounter so unfortunately we won’t be able to use Amy on a regular basis but I sure wish we could. We were beyond satisfied and highly recommend her without hesitation! Matilda went for a pack walk, frolicked in the stream, and played for hours in her huge fenced-in dog play area with tons of fun toys and enrichment activities. We are very thankful! 🐾”
About: I am a stay-at-home mom so I am home most of the time. I can give your doggo all the attention they need. I've taken care of dogs really for as long as I can remember. I had a great dane as a teenager so big dogs are no problem. I am a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom so I am home a most of the time, never gone for long. I am available seven days a week. I have a large fenced in yard that doggies love! I only take one dog at a time or two "sibling" dogs so that everyone can get along and hang out together. I want dogs to feel welcome in my home. I have two cats that are very used to dogs. I have a very large dog kennel to keep your dog safe when I am out and about and at night.
“My puppy enjoyed the day playing with Brandon and his friendly pets. Brandon was reliable, responsive, worked well with my puppy’s energy level, and sent me a lot of updates during the day. We will be back.”

“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’m patient, caring, and treat every pet like family. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule working a part time job that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting while making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I have experience caring for my fur babies and understand how important it is to provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I always prioritize each pet’s individual needs.
About: We have watched many pets over the years and are finally bringing our love to the masses. :) We truly love all animals (every where we have lived animals indoor/outdoor just flock to us it seems ha). We give them the care they deserve and treat every last one as if it were our own personal pet. We have also had several pets through the years that needed medical attention daily (generally giving medication) and understand the importance of maintaining medicine/medical care in a very timely manner. If you are looking for the best care for your pet, look no further this family of pet lovers is where its at. We took a little time off to focus on some other things but we are back at it and ready to love and care for your pet better than anyone on this app 😀♥️ (we might be biased). I work from home full time so I am here almost 24 hrs/day to care for your lovely pet. On the weekends we come and go for short periods of time but generally we are home 80% of the weekend at least. We welcome long and short term pet stays, we just love pets. I have kids who "LOVE" to entertain/give attention to pets and try to teach them new tricks. I have several nearby dog parks, and 1 dog of my own. I have a Black Lab/Great Dane mix about 5 yrs old. He loves having other pets around after he get his sniffs in :)

“Rebecca and her husband were wonderful! I immediately felt comfortable in there home! Jackz our dog is blind and Rebecca was not only willing but happy to help us and Jackz out!”
“Allison is a fantastic dog sitter! My dog loves going to her house and playing with her Great Danes. Allison is wonderful with the animals and is fabulous to work with. We are so lucky to have found her!”
“Dottie goes to Emma’s all day, 3 days a week and just loves it! She gets so excited as soon as we pull in the driveway! Emma is responsive, helpful, kind, gentle and great with my little dog!”
About: What sets us apart is the genuine care and experience we bring to every dog we welcome into our home. My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and before having our daughter, we fostered dogs, which gave us experience with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and needs. We currently have a friendly 2-year-old lab mix, so we’re very familiar with maintaining routines, exercise needs, and positive reinforcement. One of our biggest strengths is working with anxious or shy dogs—we’re patient, attentive, and take the time to build trust at each dog’s pace so they feel safe and comfortable. We treat every dog like part of our family and strive to create a calm, loving environment where they can relax and be themselves. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home Monday–Friday. Your dog will have consistent companionship throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long periods. During the day, dogs are free to relax, play, and interact with our friendly 2-year-old lab mix. We also incorporate daily walks and outdoor playtime (weather permitting), along with plenty of attention, affection, and structured routine. Because I’m home, I’m able to closely monitor each dog’s needs and adjust care to ensure they feel comfortable, engaged, and right at home. Then when my husband and daughter are not in work or school they will help care for your dogs and play with them. In our home, we strive to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every dog in our care. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of exercise in a secure space. Inside, dogs are treated like part of the family—free to relax, play, and enjoy a calm, structured routine. We can accommodate crate training if your dog is used to it or needs a safe space while we’re briefly away from home. We pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s extra playtime, a quieter environment, or a consistent routine, so they feel secure and at home during their stay.

“A dream team family took our 16 mos, never left before, Moby, in for the Christmas holiday week. Rachel H., from the get-go, giving us a peek at drop off-nothing, but loving, professional, positivity! It was as if he had a comfy, cozy winter ski lodge retreat brimming with guys just like him. To the stars rating in expert care-all health & happiness concerns covered 100 pct. Looking for excuses to let him savor this beautiful situation again.”
“Alycia and her husband took wonderful care of Annie! We had a day trip for hospital appointments in Columbus and Annie was a happy girl with them and their cute puggle! We couldn’t be happier with Annie’s stay and know that she was well cared for and well loved. Thanks so much!”
“Ronald watched my puppy over a busy holiday weekend - not a small feat! He was responsive and sent updates throughout the weekend. Highly appreciated and would definitely recommend Ronald!”
“Abbie did such a great job with our pup! She communicates often and clearly. Helped with crate drop off and pick up. We feel very comfortable leaving out dog at her house. He had a great time and came home tired and very happy.”
“My boys are pleasantly worn out after a sleepover with their new friends! I loved all the pictures and updates through the day. We will definitely be using Tasha and Joseph again!”
“I boarded my sweet 9mo Cavalier puppy with Tricia for a weekend, and it was obvious she had the best time! Daisie looked so happy in each picture Tricia sent and was the sleepiest I’ve ever seen when I picked her up. She had a blast! It was Daisie’s first boarding so I was nervous how she would do, but it all went great. And I appreciated how accommodating Tricia was to my somewhat last minute booking and changing meet/pickup times. It gave me such peace of mind on my trip to know Daisie was being so well cared for. Will be booking again!”
“Kelti & Tanner are awesome! They are committed to accommodating you and your pet in all ways possible (incl. waking up to feed your dog at 5:30 AM/6 AM on weekends) If you're like me, then you are anxious whenever you have to leave your pet. While my big boy (Koda, a 78-pound yellow/white labrador retriever) stayed with with Kelti & Tanner, I knew I had nothing to worry about. That peace of mind is priceless.”
“Patricia was amazing hosting our girlie while we travelled. She is very contentious and a great communicator, I’m a bit over protective and she put me at ease. We will definitely use her again!”
“Tammi did an excellent job watching our dogs while we were out of town. One of our dogs is prone to having seizures when she is stressed out, and Tammi assured us that she had no problem taking on a dog with medical problems. Tammi sent us pictures and videos on a daily basis. I enjoyed watching my dogs having a blast at her house. I was afraid that they weren't going to want to come home since they were having such a good time! Overall, I would highly recommend Tammi and I can't say enough what a wonderful job she did. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“It was our first time using Rover and Wynn did an excellent job making sure our pup Saint was comfortable as well as being great with communication. The photo updates were definitely a plus ! Would definitely book again in the future !”
“Megan and David are amazing! I was so nervous to leave my older girl with her high maintenance health care needs, but I was able to have a relaxing trip knowing she was in good hands. They have a ton of animal care experience and the sweetest dog who was so patient; my girl was able to fit right in with the family. They are quick to respond and gave me daily updates with pictures. I couldn't recommend them enough and hope they are available the next time my pup needs a home away from home.”
“Amanda and Mike were super welcoming and we felt very comfortable leaving Dolly with them for the weekend! They have two labs of their own which made me confident they knew how to handle our high energy girl. They sent lots of pictures and Dolly seemed to have a great time!”
“Sent lots of fun photos and updates of our pups, which definitely helped me feel better about leaving them. Really on top of communication, and was able to adapt when our travel plans kept falling through. Highly recommend!”
“I was very pleased with Roxie’s stay! Stephanie and her family were awesome. They were very considerate and made me feel at ease leaving Roxie in their care. We received lots of communication and photos during our trip. Roxie seemed to have a great time and enjoyed the attention she was given. I would highly recommend Stephanie and hope Roxie can stay again next year when we go on vacation!”
“Paige, Stephen and family cared for our dog, Duncan, so well! He became part of their family while we were gone and I could tell that Duncan was thriving while with them. He especially loved playing with their kids which helped keep his sense of normalcy compared to our home! Would definitely recommend this family to anyone :)”
“Hailey was great ! Booking was easy and I was able to ask the questions I needed before completing the booking ! While I was on my trip my 2 dogs were able to play in group play and I got updated and even pictures! Hailey assured me my babies were getting taken care of! I was running a few hours behind and she was able to make modifications to my trip which was very easy ! When I got my pups they had cute bandannas on and smelled like they got a bath which was a nice touch ! She told me her back ground with dogs and she forsure has lots of experience! This was my first time doing something like this but I’d book with her again !!”
“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
