“Amanda and Mike are great! Ashli loves them both and has such a great time when she is there. I never worry when my girl is there because she is well taken care of!”
“Matt was a great caregiver for my 2 dogs (black lab & bernedoodle) while my family and I vacationed for a week. Prior to booking with him, he kindly offered to allow me to meet him and his dogs at his home. He quickly put my kind at ease and I knew that my dogs would be in great hands and be well cared for. While I was away, he sent nearly daily updates/photos and even a video of the dogs playing and were clearly right at home with his dogs and family. I highly recommend him and will definitely use him again in the future.”
“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 ❤️❤️”
“Oliver seemed so happy with Cathy. Her fenced in backyard gave him the opportunity to sun bathe and roll in the grass when he wanted to, play with the neighbors’ children, and watch the birds. He settled in quickly to her warm and caring personality. Cathy did a super job accommodating his picky eating habits, his dietary restrictions, and his separation anxiety. Cathy is a real gem! You won’t be disappointed!”
“The girls loved their stay with Sally! They had so much energy and were ‘all smiles’ when we picked them up. They can’t wait to see her again! Thanks for taking such good care of our babies!”
“We love Rebecca! Sent lots of updates and treat our pup with so much love! We had a last minute change in plans and she helped us out so much! He loves the car and she took him out with her and I know he loved it! 100% will use her again!”
“Sunny had a wonderful week with Jenny and her family and loved playing with their dog Bosco. He was so happy and comfortable when we picked him up! Great updates and communication.”
“This was Rowan’s second time staying with Melissa. She takes great care of him. He loves running in their yard and playing with their dogs. She keeps me updated on how he’s doing.”
“We have used Patricia 4 times now. Our dog is super comfortable with her and enjoys hanging in her backyard. She sends us daily pictures and updates of cash. She loves him which makes it that much better for us when we are away. I would definitely recommend!”
“My pup seemed so happy and comfortable staying with Kelti and Tanner, especially with it being his first time away from home. I loved the updates and pictures I received. I would absolutely recommend them!”
“Elisheba and her family took Ember in and were very kind. Thank you for the hospitality and the great care at a last minute notice. Ember loved the yard and enjoyed having extra people to play with her, it takes a village!”
“Rachel and her family are excellent sitters. I know my dog is well loved when he is there. He came home exhausted, which is a good sign of fun and playing. I recommend her for your pet’s needs!”
“Percy was well cared for and greatly enjoyed his stay with Deana and her husband! We are so glad we found them. They went above and beyond to care for my dog and make him happy.”
“Susie did a FANTASTIC job watching Chase! We received updates throughout his stay and he seemed so happy/tired when we picked him up. We will definitely be using Susie again.”

“Susan did a great job taking care of my cat! She communicated very well with me before and during her visit using the Rover card, including pictures and details of her time there. She even put him outside into his cat condo for a bit while there! She also watered my potted flowers for me. I will book Susan again and highly recommend her!”
“Emily took such good care of our cats while we were away. It's always stressful to leave our cats for an extended period and finding someone who can take care of them is another challenge. With Emily, she went above and beyond to care for our three cats with their very different diets and needs, that also included double daily visits and she even trekked out during a winter storm to make sure they had what they needed. She always provided us with updates and photos, and was very respectful of our home while we were away. We can't recommend her enough and hope she will be available for any of our future requests because she is simply the best!”
“Taylor did such an amazing job watching my two cats! One needs an inhaler and she did wonderful making sure he got that twice a day. She asked all the right questions and both of my cats seemed relaxed and happy when I got home. She really went above and beyond! 10 out of 10 recommend.”
“Everything was wonderful when we returned home. Got daily check ins with pictures. Our one cat who doesn’t like anyone loved Bethany. 10/10. Couldn’t ask for anything more.”
“Jessica took excellent care of our cat while we were out of town! Great communication and we loved getting some photos. I appreciated how thorough she was and how she went above and beyond to play with him and give him some extra attention. We felt really comfortable knowing he was in good hands! We will definitely use Jessica again in the future! : )”
“Tori was excellent! She made me feel very comfortable leaving my kitty over the holidays because i knew he would be in great care. She was also very responsive. Would definitely hire Tori again!”
“Alison was communicative and professional in our interactions. She was reliable, friendly, and responsive in a time crunch! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a drop-in visit.”
“Lauren was fantastic with our cats! She medicated our anxious tabby and sent pictures each day! Lauren remained cool and collected when we ran into house alarm snafus. I would highly recommend her services!”
“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!”
“Megan was awesome and we’d highly recommend her to anyone. She sent us pictures of our cats everyday and gave us plenty of updates on how they were doing. We’ll definitely be using her again in the future if she’s available!”
“Brendan was a wonderful pet sitter for my cat. My cat is skittish but she adores Brendan. Everything I asked for was done accordingly. Will definitely request his service again in the future.”
“I could not have asked for a better cat sitter for my kitties! We have four and he took care of each of them perfectly! He distributed their medication, provided tons of photos, and was excellent with communication. We even encountered a last minute mix up with our address and he accommated us no problem. One of our kitties is terrified of strangers but he loves Alexandru! Truly an example that shows how much he loves animals. Would recommend 10/10 times.”
“Angel was amazing!! Our power went out during the heatwave and she went above and beyond to take care of our fur baby. Such a great caretaker and would 100% recommend”

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.
“It had been a bit since my pup visited Lauren but like always she jumped out of the car excited to be there for the day. She always loves hanging with Lauren.”
“Karen was amazing!! We were traveling in from out-of-town and were very nervous about leaving our pug, Curtis, with a stranger for the first time since we got him a few months ago. Karen was very knowledgeable, and Curtis seemed drawn to her right away, which pretty quickly helped to put us more at ease. Karen was great with Curtis and sent us several fun and cute updates throughout the day about snuggling, playing piano for him, and his unexpectedly strong attachment to her husband Jim. When we picked him up at the end of each day, Curtis seemed happy and confident, which indicated that he had a lot of fun hanging out with Karen (& Jim), and we always stayed an extra 15 minutes to chat. Her house was kind of a drive from where we were staying in downtown Cincinnati, but Karen was well-worth the drive. If we’re ever back in Cincinnati with Curtis, we would love to work with Karen again!”
“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!”
“Lisa and John were great! It was a very last-minute booking and they were incredibly accommodating. I felt very comfortable from the jump leaving Lola with them. They helped her get adjusted and she came home absolutely wiped! I will definitely be booking again.”
“Akita is professional, very responsive and amazing! My fur baby felt at home immediately. He even ate his food which he never does when he’s away from home. She was so accommodating and did such a wonderful job taking him on plenty of walks and potty breaks! He was so excited for day 2 daycare. I’m so happy I found a forever sitter for my baby! Thank you Akita!”

“Bethany has been so helpful in caring for our dog. She treats her well and clearly has a love for animals. She's responsive and kind and we plan to continue using her on a weekly basis for as long as she's offering her services.”
“Jillian has been walking my quirky and sometimes shy greyhound regularly for a couple months now and she is the absolute best. On time, thorough, understanding, flexible, competent, communicative, knowledgeable. I don’t trust my dog to everyone, but I feel 10000% confident that she’s in good hands with Jillian on their walks!”
“Megan has taken good care of our older pup who has a lot of quirks and particular needs. She communicates well, shows up promptly, and has patience when walking with our 17 year old girl.”
About: Hi! My name is Claire, and I’m someone who has always had dogs growing up — they’ve been a huge part of my life. Now that I’m in school, I really miss having a dog of my own, but I know I don’t currently have the time to fully raise one. That’s actually what drew me to Rover: I get to spend time caring for and loving dogs while also helping owners in my community feel confident their pets are in good hands. I genuinely love dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I take caring for them seriously. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them attention and comfort, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and always focused on making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Being in school has taught me how to manage my time responsibly, and pet care is something I truly enjoy rather than see as a chore. I would love the opportunity to help care for your dog (or cat!) and give them the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine because I’m currently in school and have a flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting during weekdays and weekends, and I make sure pets receive consistent attention, playtime, and care throughout the day! I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I carefully follow feeding, medication, and routine instructions, keep environments clean and secure, and make sure each pet feels calm, loved, and well cared for.
“Courtney was great with our request for a last minute walk over the holiday break! Shimo had a nice, long walk and we came home to a happy, tired pup. She was very kind and responsive and I’d highly recommend her and look forward to booking with her again!”
About: I’ve grown-up around animals my entire life; whether on the farm I grew up on, or taking care of former housemates pets; I’ve always had a strong connection to, and a deep love for animals. While I am currently unable to host/pet sit at my current residence, I am always available to come and do so at the home you and your pets share! My schedule currently has open availability; which means I can, most likely, accommodate your schedule needs; whether that means Days, Nights, Weekdays or Weekends- I’m ready and available! I love to go on long walks; either around the neighborhood or to the local dog park, but have no problem just kicking it at home spending the time giving them all the attention/affection they require. (And for those pets who prefer the single life, I’m also fine with serving as their human can opener while you are away)
“I have three dogs with different needs because of age and temperament. I was most worried about my small, shy dog, but he took a treat from Karen on the first meeting!”
“Highly recommend and would book again! He was great with my dog and followed instructions to the T. My dog was nice and tired for the entire time until I got home from work which is incredible considering Hank has overcome separation anxiety and this was the first time I was leaving him in his crate for an entire work day. So walking him and getting his anxiety/energy out has proven to be more beneficial than any medication can be for him. I appreciate Alex for getting Hank the exercise and attention. It was a huge relief to be at work and know he's going to be well taken care of,”
“Victoria is awesome!! She is so patient and works great with our crazy puppy!! Victoria always communicates how his walks go and I always feel so confident knowing she will take great care of him.”
“Allison has been great! Super friendly and helpful when scheduling, and she has great availability. This is the second time she's taken our Aussie pup on a walk to help get some energy out. Love getting the pictures of her time with him and the note she leaves about their time together. Will definitely keep using Allison”
About: I grew up with five cats and one dog, and have helped pet sit friends’ dogs. I am very comfortable playing, feeding, going on walks, cleaning litter boxes, etc. I now have my own tripod cat as well, so I have also learned a lot about caring for pets with different needs! I will be working part time, and not taking classes this summer semester. So I will have plenty of time to stop by throughout the week. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and stick to their usual routine. I am very careful on checking that doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I follow all instructions closely and keep owners regularly updated!
About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with two of my own a 7-year-old Golden Retriever and a 3-year-old Lab/Aussie mix. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have years of experience dog sitting. I treat every dog like family and am comfortable with all breeds and energy levels. Whether your pup needs playtime, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to help! I'm a graduate student at Xavier University with a flexible schedule. I’m available for walks or check-ins throughout the day and can also stop by in the evenings after class. With my experience and having dogs of my own I am able to ensure dog safety and that their needs are met. I will also treat your dogs as if they are my own.
About: I have had three dogs of my own - Bear, Snickers, and Annie! I loved each one of them so much and gave them the world. Now, let me give the world to yours when we get to have adventures together on walks, at parks, and at home with lots of pet cuddle time! I am a graduate student but make plenty of time to hang out with your pets during the day and in the evenings! I give daily walks and lots of play time and cuddle time each day we spend together! I normally dog sit at the persons home while I am caring for their pets. I find that this allows the pets to feel most comfortable and have the best experience while their families are away.
“Jared has been absolutely fantastic with our dogs! From day one, he's been incredibly communicative, reliable, and prompt, which gives us complete peace of mind. Our dogs absolutely adore him and are always excited for their walks and adventures together. It's clear that he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with and knows how to keep them happy, safe, and well cared for. We trust him completely and feel so lucky to have found him. If you're looking for someone dependable, trustworthy, and great with dogs, we highly recommend Jared! 🐾”

“Lauren and Wynn took great care of our pup! Communication was terrific with photos and updates shared regularly. They were flexible on the pick-up and drop-off times. And Vivi came home happy, healthy, and exhausted from playing. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time leaving my dog with someone who wasn't family while I was out of town. I found Rover while searching for dog boarding places around Cincinnati and decided to give it a try. I am so impressed with the service itself, and even more so with Christy. She and her dog were friendly and welcoming when we arrived for our meet and greet, and I immediately felt great about leaving my dog in her care. She sent me pictures of my dog almost every day that I was gone. My dog came home happy and exhausted! I would absolutely use Christy again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Shannon & her daughter Michaela were amazing sitters for my dog! Minnie got plenty of cuddles and playtime! Shannon was awesome and sent lots of pictures. Definitely recommend her to anyone!!”
“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.”
