“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Eliza. She is an Incredible dog sitter❤️. I 1000% would use her again. She was so kind and kept me up to date the whole time, also sent me pictures of my Rocky. Eliza took such good care of my boy. Your pup is in GREAT hands here!!”
“We needed a last minute dog sitter and used the rover app for the first time to find someone close by and I got so lucky to find Chrissy to help us out. The dogs loved the big backyard and played so well with their own dogs. I will definitely use her again. ❤️”
“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.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Patricia! I could tell my dogs were well loved and cared for under her care. I didn’t have to worry about them at all while we were gone. So glad we found her and look forward to hopefully using her again the future!”
“Jamie did a great job with our Boston Terriers and she kept us up to date frequently. When my ‘finicky’ dog decided not to eat one day, Jamie communicated throughout day with me, we were able to discuss his sensitivities and ways to coax him, and he ate later. I appreciate her care of our puppies.”
“We haven't left our dog very much so we were a little nervous about how he would do away from us for two days. Ruth was fantastic. She was flexible with our arrival time and very communicative, both before, answering all our questions, and during our dog's stay, sending pictures and a video of him. Our dog loved the backyard and seemed calm and content when we picked him up. We highly recommend Ruth and would definitely have her keep our dog again!”
“Dana was easy to communicate with and she sent me pictures of my dog every day. I was happy with Pidge's stay, felt like she was in kind and safe hands during my trip. I recommend Dana!”
“I simply cannot recommend Karen enough for your dog's vacay. She is WONDERFUL! I recent had a tough situation with my dog, Dex, coming down with a horrendous allergic reaction just in time for a business trip i had to make. And Karen stepped in, took care of him for the whole week, sent me pictures of him recovering. She was so enthusiastic to take care of him and also administer his medication on my behalf. I could not have left him with anyone else other than Karen, not even my friends, with the confidence that he will be well looked after. When I came back to town, Dex was almost back to his best and was healthy and happy! Karen, you ROCK!”
“Angel was the best She provided photos everyday and did transportation back and fourth to our home. She is prompt on responding and very professional. Will definitely go to her in the future. I highly recommend her to watch your pets especially if you on a time crunch and need transportation. Thank you Angel.”
“Such an amazing experience! Our dogs loved being there they got a spa day! And a nice hike in they were definitely worn out when they got home which I loved coming back from a trip! Drop off and pick up was very easy. We absolutely will book them again.”
“Katie was great. Sent me updates everyday and treated my dogs like they were her own. I’ll definitely be reaching out and using her for her services again. Thanks again, you’re appreciated!”
“Kelly and her family were so friendly and accommodating. She sent pictures and updates through each day. Kiko got along great with her two larger dogs. We'll be using her again!”
“Jane was wonderful with Penny. Our dog was feeling separation anxiety and she was so kind and patient. She sent lots of pictures and I felt very good about leaving her with Jane. This is our second time using Jane and I’d definitely use her again. Thank you so much!!”
“William & Haley were amazing! They took great care of Auri and sent great updates and pictures. Auri loved her time exploring the fenced-in back yard. Thank you!”
“Second time my dog stays with Cori and her family and certainly will not be the last! (she’s going back next weekend!) Cori is the best and will truly care for your fur baby.”
“Melissa took very good care of Holly. She is still a puppy and this was the first time I had to leave. Holly bonded very well with Melissa and her children. Melissa gave me periodic updates and sent pictures and videos. I already scheduled my next 2 travel dates with Melissa.”

About: Hi! My name is Laura, and caring for animals has been a passion of mine for over 10 years. I have experience with many different kinds of animals and personalities, and I truly enjoy making sure every pet I care for feels comfortable, safe, and loved while their owner is away. Whether your pet loves long walks, active playtime, quiet companionship, or extra cuddles, I’m happy to adapt to their routine and needs. I understand that every animal is unique, and I take the time to learn their personality so they feel relaxed and happy while in my care. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to providing the same level of care I would want for my own pets. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: I’ve watched cats since I was 9 years old. I lived in an apartment complex so I’d take care of all the neighbors cats. One of the cats I currently own takes a daily medication and is a fighter against it so I know how to wrangle a cat to administer medication, but I believe in a fear free approach! I am not scared of being clawed or bit at all, but will do all I can to avoid it! My goal is to keep your kitty happy and healthy! I have no problem cleaning litter boxes, accidents or hair balls as I have four cats of my own.

“Angel is great! It was our first experience leaving our Zoey with a sitter. Angel kept in contact with us during the day and even sent pics. We brought Zoey back for a second stay 2 days later while we were on vacation so we could do our thing and we would be at ease knowing Zoey was in good hands. We would definitely use Angel again if needed.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, providing feeding, walking, playtime, and medication support. Coming from a family that owns a veterinary hospital, I’m comfortable recognizing pet needs, handling health concerns, and ensuring safe, attentive, and loving care. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their comfort, routine, and happiness while their owners are away. I'm currently working part time, so have plenty of time available for your pups! I am home often, so they will have limited time alone. I provide attentive, reliable pet care in both my home and clients’ homes depending on their needs and comfort level. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their pet’s environment calm, clean, and familiar to reduce stress. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they are away. In my home, pets receive a safe, supervised, and loving environment with plenty of attention and exercise.

About: I’ve had a dog of my own that I’ve taken care of for 11 years now! In the past I have also taken care of my neighbors cats while they were away. Although I have never taken care of another family’s dogs, they are my favorite animals in this world and I have spent a few years volunteering at dog shelters in the area where I take them on walks, play with them, and help with feeding them. I will be more than happy to help take care of ur pets while you are away and make new furry friends! I am currently unemployed and have a lot of time on my hands to take care of your pets while you are away! However, I am in search of a part time job, but that will still not take too much of my time. I am also totally available on the weekends if it is needed! I have a dog at home who is not too friendly with other dogs, so boarding is not really an option unfortunately. However, I am more than willing to care for your pets in your home and neighborhood! I will be able to crate your dog if need be and if course follow the rules of your house. Your pets will be well fed, walked, played with, and given all of my attention!
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.
“Lisa was very knowlegable and communicated throughout the day about what my pup was up to. I initially had some concerns as my dog is a Siberian Husky who are known for their big personality and who sometimes find trouble when their needs arent met. Thankfully Lisa has experience with the breed, and my pup got plenty of play, walks, and mental stimulation through the day.”

About: Hi! I’m someone who genuinely loves animals and treats every pet like family. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I focus on making both pets and owners feel safe, relaxed, and cared for from day one. I have experience caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs — including administering medications, working with reactive dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. I understand that every pet is unique, and I’m patient, attentive, and committed to creating a calm, positive environment where they feel secure and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime, or simply wants extra affection and attention, I tailor my care to fit their individual routine and personality. I’m confident reading body language and helping nervous or high-energy pets feel safe and understood. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I also make it a priority to keep routines consistent to help reduce stress and make the experience as comfortable as possible for your pet. My goal is simple: to give your pet a loving, stress-free experience while giving you total peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I currently stay at home so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, loving care for your pets. I’m available for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-in visits throughout the week and weekends. Your pet will never feel rushed or overlooked — I make it a priority to give each animal personalized attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I’m also happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medication routines, and special care instructions to help your pet feel comfortable and at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel secure and loved while you’re away. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor play. I treat every pet like family and always follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, exercise needs, medications, and preferred sleeping arrangements.
About: I have had 9 cats of my own. I have cared for kittens from age 2 weeks old, having to bottle feed them to senior cats who needed medication. I'm open with owners about things I find. I once noticed a cat I was caring for had worms and I relayed this to the owner. Another time, I noticed during a nail trim that a cat had a claw growing into its paw pad. The owner was so glad I caught these things and informed them. I have driven pets to the vet for a client. I have walked dogs, and cared for chickens and geckos. I am precise when following directions provided by the pet owner. I LOVE taking pictures of pets and will send them over every day. I have 4 cats of my own, so their care is a daily routine for me. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to care for other pets. I usually go to the clients' home for pet sitting cats or dog walking. Although, I have a fenced-in yard with a privacy fence, which allows me to have dogs over.
“We were on our way to the Ark Encounter and needed a place for our two dogs to stay. Mariah and Anthony were kind enough to take them in for the day. Our dogs felt right at home. They have a nice fenced in back yard and was very safe for them to play in. Their two German Shepherds were very nice and friendly and got a long great with our two dogs. Mariah and Anthony were very friendly and we wouldn’t hesitate to use them again if we were in the area.”

About: Animals have been so much the center of my life that I made it my career! I am a professional dog trainer with an education through Jean Donaldson's Academy for Dog Trainer's. Let me bring that experience to carrying for your best friend's when you need a set of extra hands. I have loved and cared for pets my entire life! Growing up we had cats, dogs, birds and lizards. Currently I have two Great Pyrenees and one cat of great personaity. They have been my guides in the wonderful world of clicker training. Ghost, my rescue dog, has given me a lot of experience with anxious, sensitive dogs that need a little more time and care. Where as Nanuk has shown me how to handle dogs with a ton of drive and intelligence. And how to harness that despite physical limitations. And my cat... well, he comes running whenever I get the treat bag and clicker and has his own variation on all the dogs tricks. ;) I look forward to meeting your pets and seeing what I can learn from them! I am currently working part time and happy to work with you on scheduling. My husband is also retired which allows me a lot of flexibility for being away from home I do not care for client pets in my home. When is someone else's home I will do my best to continue your pet's usual routine while you are away.
About: I am currently a pre-vet student in college. I have worked with several animals most commonly being cats and dogs! I own 3 dogs and a cat of my own! I volunteer at 2 shelters regularly. I dog/cat sit very regularly for family friends! I have also interned at an animal hospital for an entire year! I am just excited to work with animals and get hours for vet school!! I will start working at the Cincinnati Zoo soon so I should have normal shifts. Once I start school I typically don’t do anything other than focus on school so I am very available to care for your animals! I am always just as caring about your place of living and will do my best to keep things clean as I stay there! Hopefully cleaner than when I started! I know animals can be messy and uncomfortable with new people but I will always put forth effort in a safe and clean environment for your fur ball!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs. My family used to breed AKC Collie’s, owning 2 collies in total. Once I moved to college, I couldn’t have a collie where I lived so I got a Sheltie. He’s been with me ever since, though his “time” is approaching. (Passed away 4/6/2021) I’ve dog sat for several friends. I teach therefore summers off means a lot of availability for me to care for your dog! I’m no professional but I’m good with training and very patient with dogs. My sheltie was house broken in 6 months and knew all the basic commands. I have so much fun with dogs and have children to play with them too! Dogs must be good with other dogs and with children. I look forward to meeting your dog or dogs! I care a lot about animals! I do offer services year round, however, June through August are my peak times. I teach, therefore September through May are harder for me to care for other’s pets during the week. It can be done, but it is more difficult, as the pets will be cooped up from 7-3:30. I am always available on weekends! I offer discounts for repeat clients. Discount applied after booking. I am a teacher, therefore I primarily take on clients during the summer and on weekends. During the week is not out of question, just know they will be alone (must bring crate due to no supervision) from about 7 until 3/3:30 during the months school is in session. June through mid August, I am home except occasional errands and will be available for frequent potty breaks! I have a fenced in yard for your dog(s) to run around! I do have gentle giant (Great Dane) who loves to play. He can be intimidating, but he’s so sweet and just wants to play. Disclaimer- he drools a lot. I can keep your pet clean, though! I also have a Boston Terrier named Ellie. She is a very special story and although I picked her up as a 6 month old pup in 2012, we have been apart for 10 years and she’s back where she belongs. <3 If I come to your home for services, I am very professional and will be sure to follow your steps completely. I might sometimes need to bring my children with me, depending on the day.

I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, rabbits, birds, and turtles. I’ll always have a soft spot for dogs, but I’m happy to care for any kind of pet from all walks of life!

About: I grew up with cats and dogs constantly in my life. I understand the need for medication given on time, cats needing daily litter changes, and everything that goes along with pet care. I am free anytime of day. I’m very open, loving, and enjoy building relationships with clients and their pets. Best part of my day is when their animals remember me. All animals are always welcome!

About: I grew up with cats, owned a 3-legged senior dog for many years, and have owned small rodents, and an indoor rabbit. I've been pet sitting for friends for almost a decade! Relax while you're away knowing your furry family member(s) are well taken care of. I'm currently on summer break (I work in education) so my availability is very open. I also work a summer job at Riverbend, but that's only a few nights a month. When I visit a clients home, I like to first make sure to take an inventory the pets' general wellness, and just love on them a little if possible before beginning any cleaning or feeding.

About: Hi! I’m someone who genuinely loves animals and treats every pet like family. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I focus on making both pets and owners feel safe, relaxed, and cared for from day one. I have experience caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs — including administering medications, working with reactive dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. I understand that every pet is unique, and I’m patient, attentive, and committed to creating a calm, positive environment where they feel secure and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime, or simply wants extra affection and attention, I tailor my care to fit their individual routine and personality. I’m confident reading body language and helping nervous or high-energy pets feel safe and understood. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I also make it a priority to keep routines consistent to help reduce stress and make the experience as comfortable as possible for your pet. My goal is simple: to give your pet a loving, stress-free experience while giving you total peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I currently stay at home so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, loving care for your pets. I’m available for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-in visits throughout the week and weekends. Your pet will never feel rushed or overlooked — I make it a priority to give each animal personalized attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I’m also happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medication routines, and special care instructions to help your pet feel comfortable and at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel secure and loved while you’re away. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor play. I treat every pet like family and always follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, exercise needs, medications, and preferred sleeping arrangements.
About: Pet lover with 5 years vet tech experience! Comfortable administering medication and insulin injections. I have two amazing pups of my own, a 4 year old shih tzu and a 10 year old shepherd mix! If I could, I’d rescue every pup out there. I care about every animal like they are my own and would love the opportunity to take care of your pet(s) and keep your kind at ease while your out of town or at work! On top of my vet experience, I have worked in a pet kennel/doggie day care taking care of dogs, cats, exotics. I am always the first contact for my friends to take care of their pets. I currently work full-time from home with a flexible schedule. This allows me to be able to do drop in visits and walks throughout the day. I have two very friendly pups. For drop in visits, if your pet needs to burn some energy, I can bring along my pets to tire them out!
About: Hi! My name is Laura, and caring for animals has been a passion of mine for over 10 years. I have experience with many different kinds of animals and personalities, and I truly enjoy making sure every pet I care for feels comfortable, safe, and loved while their owner is away. Whether your pet loves long walks, active playtime, quiet companionship, or extra cuddles, I’m happy to adapt to their routine and needs. I understand that every animal is unique, and I take the time to learn their personality so they feel relaxed and happy while in my care. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to providing the same level of care I would want for my own pets. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. With more than a decade of experience caring for animals, I’m comfortable with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. References are available upon request, and I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! I currently work part-time, so I have quite a bit flexibility to accommodate different schedules. This includes early morning, late nights and weekends. I am available for drop ins/walks as well as pet sitting overnight. I am very thorough when following instructions for individual pets at your home. I will always put their safety first and make sure they are secure in my care.

“Jamie did a great job with our Boston Terriers and she kept us up to date frequently. When my ‘finicky’ dog decided not to eat one day, Jamie communicated throughout day with me, we were able to discuss his sensitivities and ways to coax him, and he ate later. I appreciate her care of our puppies.”
“I simply cannot recommend Karen enough for your dog's vacay. She is WONDERFUL! I recent had a tough situation with my dog, Dex, coming down with a horrendous allergic reaction just in time for a business trip i had to make. And Karen stepped in, took care of him for the whole week, sent me pictures of him recovering. She was so enthusiastic to take care of him and also administer his medication on my behalf. I could not have left him with anyone else other than Karen, not even my friends, with the confidence that he will be well looked after. When I came back to town, Dex was almost back to his best and was healthy and happy! Karen, you ROCK!”
“Such an amazing experience! Our dogs loved being there they got a spa day! And a nice hike in they were definitely worn out when they got home which I loved coming back from a trip! Drop off and pick up was very easy. We absolutely will book them again.”

“Hailey is an excellent representation of Rover. She was there when I needed her on short notice, and I think my dog (Rogue) had a blast! Very easy to communicate with too. I’ll use her again for my next Rover need!”
