“I had always used boarding kennels for my dogs and I am so, so glad I found Patricia on Rover instead! They were much happier and comfortable being in a home environment vs a loud crowded facility. Patricia is an absolute sweetheart who treated my babies like her own. I will continue to have her babysit from here on out!”
“Henry loved every minute staying at their house!!! William and Haley sent us pictures and updates which helped to take the worry away and every picture showed Henry enjoying cuddles and fun! They were very flexible with arrival and departure, super accommodating (really only had to pack food), and the fenced in yard looked like a dream playground for any dog full of energy. I would not only highly recommend them, but we’ve found a dog sitter that we will FOR SURE use again!!!! This family is amazing and they had plenty of love to share with our pup Henry ❤️❤️”
“Deana was wonderful. Louie liked Deana and family so much he hesitated when it was time to come home. lol! Deana gave updates, pictures, and videos of Louie throughout his stay and treated him like he was part of the family. Louie was sick prior to his stay and they closely monitored his health.”
“Rachel was fantastic! I had multiple personal issues and had to book last minute and Rachel was prompt with responding and so accommodating. Sent pictures throughout so I knew my dog was having a wonderful time. Highly highly recommend!”
“Avery and her family did great with our boys! She was super responsive, and sent us updates and pictures while we were out of town. So glad to know our boys were in good hands. Will definitely use her again!”
“This was our 2 year old King Charles Cavalier 1st Stay with Alycia and Scott, he spent the entire weekend with them. He returned home feeling quite content. We will certainly give them another chance.”

“Tammi was a wonderful host to our pups. She gave us such peace of mind that I was able to focus on the event and not worry if our girls were safe. My first time using Rover was a success, I will definitely return to Tammi again!”
“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.”
“Jessica is great! My old dog is a bit needy and she was so sweet, meeting him where he’s at and not complaining about giving him extra attention. My kids and I all loved that she sent daily updates with photos. We will definitely check in with Jessica next time we need a sitter!”
“I can’t say enough about Kimberly. She is amazing. We did a meet and greet prior to taking Gracie and she was so welcoming, so organized and her house was so dog friendly. Gracie is 15 years old and has never stayed with anyone else. As soon as we met Kimberly we knew she would be in good hands! We got updates and pictures everyday letting us know how Gracie was doing. We will definitely use her again. If you are looking for someone to love your baby as much as you do, Kimberly is the one!”

“Hailey came to check on our sweet Hunter for 4 days and did a great job! Water bowl was filled, litter was cleaned, and Hunter seemed to be in good spirits! Really enjoyed the photos and videos we received!”
“Kelsey was the absolute sweetest. She came prior to my trip to meet my two cats so she could learn a little about them and my apartment before hand! Kelsey watched them over a holiday weekend where I assumed there would be lots of commotion and fireworks in our area and she was very communicative in reassuring me that the cats were safe. She sent me photos of the cats every night and they looked so so happy! In addition to all of these amazing things, we came home to our apartment fully cleaned even tho we told her no cleaning was necessary. Kelsey really helped to alleviate the anxiety of traveling and leaving your pets at home for me!”
“Mariah took exceptional care of our two cats while we were away. She was originally scheduled to take special care for Sancho, but when Rio unexpectedly needed medication and extra attention as well, she was incredibly flexible and happily adapted to his new care routine. Both cats received their medications exactly as instructed, including insulin injections and oral medications. Mariah was very attentive, careful, and compassionate throughout every visit. We especially appreciated the detailed visit summaries and photos she sent each day. She kept us informed and reassured that our boys were doing well. Knowing our cats were in such capable and caring hands gave us true peace of mind during our trip. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Mariah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and compassionate pet sitter.”
About: Cats have always had a special place in my heart—they’re truly my favorite! I volunteered with an animal rescue for about 6 years, fostering cats, kittens, pregnant moms, and even puppies and dogs. Caring for rescue cats taught me how to work with shy, scared, playful, and senior cats while helping them feel safe and loved. I have a cat of my own who is absolutely spoiled and treated like family. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I’m happy to go at their pace, whether they want to cuddle, play, or simply have a calm, caring presence. I’ll treat your cat like one of my own and make sure they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve.
About: Hi, I’m AJ, a lifelong pet lover with experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve had pets since childhood and have house-sat for neighbors, family, and friends, ensuring their pets were happy and well cared for. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pets and home in someone else’s hands. I’ll provide attentive care, keep your pets happy and comfortable, and ensure your home stays safe and well-maintained. I’m also happy to send regular updates so you always know how things are going. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets—feel free to reach out! My 9-5 job is fully remote, which means I’ll be around to keep your pets company throughout the day. I’m available most days of the week and am happy to travel and stay in your home to ensure your pets feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I live in a quiet, two-bedroom condo with no other pets, making it a comfortable space to board cats and small/medium dogs. Since I work from home, I can provide plenty of attention all day, and take your dogs outside regularly for walks and fresh air. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine, including crating if needed. I also offer house sitting to keep your pets comfortable in their own home while you’re away.
“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!”
“Hannah is absolutely INCREDIBLE. She loved on our teething 3 month old Aussie with so much grace. She sends lots of updates which is great for us because we always feel bad leaving her. Thank you Hannah for your patience and time! We will be a repeat customer for sure!”
About: Cats have always been my favorite animal but growing up I wasn’t allowed to have any but now I have my own baby shown in the picture above, I love cats and would love to take care of them!
“Ashley was awesome. I would definitely recommend her and book her again! She was super attentive and caring to our dog while we were away. She sent pics and took our dog for a walk everyday. Super kind and responsive. No issues at all. 😊”
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.

About: I've always have dog in my life, and my passion for dogs will last forever. My friend told me that I don't treat my dogs as dogs but babies. Remember, a genuine love for animals and a commitment to their well-being are at the heart of any successful pet care experience! I'm currently full time house wife with 2 dogs, no kids. My daily routines are my dogs, so I have a lot of time to watch yours too! We walk 4 times a day, and enjoy homemade dog treat and food. I don't have yard so I walk dogs instead (3-4 times a day), and I always clean them right after walking so they are allowed on furniture. Remember, a walk a day keep vet away. I do have crates if needed.
“Jane and Scott were great. They took my dog on multiple walks, and kept him entertained. I also found out that he likes to look out the window as he cannot do that in my house right now. They also let me know how he was doing during the day, and sent some pictures of him relaxing.”
“Allison and her family are the BEST!!! They took such good care of our very little puppy ! He is still working on potty training and Allison was understanding and accommodating . Her dogs got along great with our new puppy!! She sent pictures throughout the day and made us feel at complete ease. Mylo did not want to leave their house, he had so much fun. Would Highly recommend !! Will be using again :)”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I volunteered with an animal rescue for about 6 years, where I fostered dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, and even pregnant moms and their babies. That experience taught me how to care for pets with different personalities, ages, and medical needs while providing them with a safe, loving environment. I currently have a cat who is truly my baby, and I regularly care for my parents’ two dogs, cat, and lizards since they live nearby. Growing up, I was surrounded by animals, including dogs, cats, hamsters, and goats, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of pets. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, or just someone patient and dependable while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I’m happy to stop by for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and medication if needed. I’m willing to travel up to 30 minutes to care for your pets and will always make sure they receive plenty of attention and love while you’re away. I prefer caring for pets in their own home because it helps them stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and entering your home, so I’ll treat both with the utmost respect. If needed, I can also care for a cat or dog in my home, which has an open yard and a calm, pet-friendly environment. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for until you’re back.
About: I’ve cared for various dog and cat breeds/personalities throughout my life, I love them all! I have some experience administering medications to dogs and cats. I am patient and consistent when it comes to following rules or a routine. I will treat your babies like they’re my own! My daily routine includes caring for my 3 kitties by playing with, cleaning up after, and feeding/watering them; I’d love to do the same for your pets! I’m familiar with special diets and administering various forms of medication, as my cats and other pets I sit, are on medicated diets and take additional medications. I currently have open availability, save a few social obligations over then next two months, but I’m flexible and communicative so we can always discuss timelines! I treat other’s spaces with care and consideration, I like to be respectful above anything else. I love all animals and treat the pets I sit with the same care I do my own.
About: Hi there! I’m Steven - lifelong dog lover, experienced sitter and a pet parent of two sweet pups: a Bernese and a Chihuahua. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone new, and my goal is to make every pup feel right at home and every owner complete at ease. With years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, I have handled everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. I’m patient and love learning each dog’s quirk and routines. I work from home most days, which means your dog will get plenty of attention throughout the day. On the days I am in the office (usually Tuesday and Wednesday) I can adjust my schedule as needed to fit your pet’s routine. I live in a safe, pet friendly community in Colerain with plenty of green spaces for walks. I also love taking dogs to parks for a change of scenery or staying cozy indoors for extra belly rubs! Safety always come first. All outdoor time is fully supervised and your pup will never be off leash unless in a safely enclosed area. I truly treat every dog as my own and want to make your time away stress free. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! My day pretty much revolves around dogs — and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Since I work from home most of the week, I’m able to keep a flexible schedule full of walks, playtime, and cuddles. My own pups keep me active and in a great routine, so adding another furry friend into the mix feels natural. Even on my in-office days, I make sure every dog gets the attention and consistency they’re used to. I care for every dog as if they were my own. At my home, pups are part of the family — they can lounge, play, and get lots of attention throughout the day. I make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe, and I always supervise outdoor time. When I’m watching pets in their own home, I do my best to keep everything just how they like it. I stick to their regular routine, give them lots of love, and keep you in the loop with updates and pictures so you never have to wonder how they’re doing.

I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs.

I’m also happy working with shy, anxious, or nervous pets and always let them warm up to me at their own pace. I believe the little things make a big difference—keeping pets on their normal routine, providing plenty of play and affection, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

A home is not the same without a pet. I currently work a part time job and know my schedule two weeks at a time. I also have a business and work from home for that. I know my schedule usually months ahead of time. With that being said, my schedule is flexible! I can work mornings, mid day and evenings. I have a large back yard and a cute neighborhood that I walk my two dogs around. I live close to a few parks. I also have a full finished basement so if you need your pet to be crated or would like for them have a large space to themselves I have plenty of room.
About: I have over six years of experience working in veterinary medicine and am dedicated to providing safe, compassionate, and knowledgeable care for your pets. My background allows me to confidently administer medications, monitor for health concerns, and support pets with special medical or behavioral needs. I am experienced caring for pets of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and animals requiring extra attention or medical support. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident while they are away, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and happy while in my care. I am currently in school and working part time. I am able to have some flexibility with my schedule depending on your needs and my availability. I respect your home and your pet’s routine. I provide feeding, walks, cleanup, playtime, and attention while keeping pets safe, comfortable, and as stress-free as possible.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and started pet sitting for neighbors at 12 years old. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, and other small pets. I’ve volunteered walking dogs and caring for cats in animal shelters and am comfortable administering medications and caring for both young and senior pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of dependable care, communication, and maintaining your pet’s routine while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine. I work part-time at a café, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays. Outside of work, I prioritize providing attentive care, exercise, enrichment, and companionship to the pets I care for. I communicate regularly with owners and do my best to maintain each pet’s normal routine while they’re away. My priority is always keeping pets safe, comfortable, and maintaining their normal routine. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and household rules. During visits, I make sure pets have secure access to appropriate areas, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I provide regular photo and video updates so owners can feel confident their pets are receiving excellent care while they are away. I am experienced with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, reptiles, and amphibians, and I adapt my care to each pet’s individual needs and personality.

“I had always used boarding kennels for my dogs and I am so, so glad I found Patricia on Rover instead! They were much happier and comfortable being in a home environment vs a loud crowded facility. Patricia is an absolute sweetheart who treated my babies like her own. I will continue to have her babysit from here on out!”
“Rachel was fantastic! I had multiple personal issues and had to book last minute and Rachel was prompt with responding and so accommodating. Sent pictures throughout so I knew my dog was having a wonderful time. Highly highly recommend!”
“Avery and her family did great with our boys! She was super responsive, and sent us updates and pictures while we were out of town. So glad to know our boys were in good hands. Will definitely use her again!”
“This was our 2 year old King Charles Cavalier 1st Stay with Alycia and Scott, he spent the entire weekend with them. He returned home feeling quite content. We will certainly give them another chance.”
“I have used Abbie several times now and she takes great care of my puppy! She takes precautions to make sure all dogs get along, and I know Clara loves her time there! She is good about sending photo or video updates.”
“Tammi was a wonderful host to our pups. She gave us such peace of mind that I was able to focus on the event and not worry if our girls were safe. My first time using Rover was a success, I will definitely return to Tammi again!”
“Haily was great and Arlo seemed to have a great time! I appreciate her taking Arlo on such short notice. I usually get pretty nervous taking Arlo to new sitters because he is so big and full of energy but she reassured me throughout his stay that everything was good and she provided pictures. Overall it was a great experience. Thank you!”
“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.”
“Finn’s second time with Holly and he ran right inside when we dropped him off like it was his own house! He was so excited to be there and hang with Millie which makes us feel so good leaving him. Thanks again, Holly!”
“**Review for Jamie:** Jamie was fantastic! She watched our dog Sarge for a full week and did an amazing job. She kept us updated the entire time with pictures and messages, which made us feel completely comfortable and at ease while we were away. Sarge clearly had a great time too. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“Katie was a perfect sitter for Nash! She gave him the attention and love he wanted, a great house to feel comfortable in and he almost didn’t want to leave!”
“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!”
“Rebecca took great care of my dogs! Her home was beautiful and perfect for my two fur babies! I felt so at ease with Rebecca’s communication about the dogs. She sent lots of pictures of them having a great time and perfectly happy. I would recommend her to anyone seeking a great environment and experience for your dogs! Will book again!!!”
