“We were really happy with the care Kodiak received during her stay. We loved the picture updates and hearing what she was up to while we were gone. Kodi came home much more relaxed than she ever has after staying at the kennel. Thanks for taking care of our girl! We will definitely look to book again for future care.”
“Kelti&Tanner were incredible. Their home is so friendly, warm, and clean. They were incredibly flexible, communicative, responsive, and loving. We received plenty of proactive communication and couldn’t have asked for a better Rover experience. Jet & Sophie loved staying with them! We recommend them without any hesitation!”
“Jenny was awesome! We are so happy she was able to help us out last minute. Piper absolutely loved the long walks and great care Jenny provided. We received updates and pictures throughout her stay. We highly recommend!! Thank you Jenny!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was in high school. I have experience in dog walking, watching pets at my home or theirs, and volunteering at local shelters. I'm currently working full time, so I am available nights and weekends to board your pet. This is to ensure that I can give your pet the attention they deserve! I have a huge fenced in yard and also 5 dogs of my own, so your pet will surely get lots of love and exercise at my home!
“Matthew and his family always treat Oakley like one of their own. Leaving him with Matthew gives me peace of mind that I know he will be taken care of and I don’t have to worry. Always excellent!”
“Tasha and Joseph were great! Maple loved her stay. She’s usually very shy and anxious when we leave, but she seemed to do very well. We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Kimberely was truly exceptional with my dog, Rooster. She treats every dog she watches as if they are a member of her own family, and it genuinely shows. From her daily updates, it was clear she took the time to understand Roo’s unique personality and little quirks — something that meant so much to me. Rooster can struggle with separation anxiety, and this was our first Rover experience where, when I arrived to pick her up, she happily greeted me and then immediately went back to playing instead of making a beeline for the car to go home. That alone speaks volumes about how safe, comfortable, and loved she felt in Kimberely's care. Her home is also clean, cozy, and perfectly set up for dogs, with a fenced-in backyard that gives them plenty of space to play and relax. I can’t recommend Kimberely highly enough. Knowing that I have such a wonderful, trustworthy sitter makes me genuinely look forward to my next trip — and I know Roo will too.”
“What a fabulous family! It made my travel so much less stressful knowing she was in such a safe and caring place. Thanks so much to Jennifer & Robert and their daughter and son... oh and Murphy too!”
“Maddie was so great! I needed someone last minute and she was quick to respond and so nice. This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I got regular pictures and updates, and though I was worried my dog would be anxious it was clear she was having a great time. I’ll definitely be booking with Maddie again!”
“Abbie was wonderful with our dog Binx, as always! She was incredibly accommodating for pick up/ drop off and communicated promptly to make things efficient for everyone. Binx was right at home with Abbie’s family over the holidays - we got great photos and videos of him playing and they went the extra mile to make sure he got settled in comfortably. I’m so thankful he has a home away from home when we’re out of town!”
“Karen was amazing! This was our first time using Rover since getting our sweet pup and Karen put all of our worries at ease. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Cori takes such great care of Mabel as always! They wear her out with lots of playtime with other pups. She sleeps for a couple days straight after staying with Cori and her family after a long weekend”

“Heather was wonderful! She sat & spent time with my kiddos, and provided pictures each session. Makes me feel so much better having someone I can trust there for my babies when I have to be away!”
“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 absolutely amazing with my objectively very spicy cat, even got her to play which never happens with strangers!!! Can’t recommend her enough. Also, she left hilarious report card reviews which make it even more fun.”
“Angel was super attentive to my cats while I was away, and coordinated with me through complicated travel schedules to make sure they would get the care that they need! I’m super thankful for her 💙”
“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.”
About: I have had cats my whole life and when I moved away for college I took one of my babies with me. He is the light of my life and some would even say spoiled. But with having my cat I have had to administer medications to him for multiple reasons and had to clean his litter box daily due to us living in a dorm room at first. (Now we have a robot litter box :) ) but I want to make sure your fur babies are well taken care of and treated like the king/Queen that they are!
“Saul was so wonderful and took such great care of my two cats. He sent me updates after every visit, including pictures. Highly recommend booking with Saul!”
“Lots of great updates, looked like they had great quality time together! Brought peace of mind to see pics of my kitty having such a fun time when I had to find someone to take care of her at the last minute”
“Savannah was great, took care of our cat while we were on vacation. We didn't have to worry about Bella while away and that makes for a better time. We will definitely use her again. Thanks Savannah!”
“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.”
About: I've had pet since my earliest memories. On top of caring for pets of my own, including cats, dogs, reptiles, arachnids, and more, I also fostered animals in southern Indiana for 5+ years. Now that I'm in the Cincinnati area I want to find a way to help animals again so I joined Rover!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Southgate
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I have 1 dog of my own with high energy. I have taught him how to sit, lay down, shake, hug, and high five. I have worked at both a dog kennel, humane society, and a few veterinary clinics previously. I also have 4 cats and an indoor rabbit. I love animals and I am obtaining my masters in animal behavior so I know alot about small animals and pets. I will treat your pets as if they were my own by making sure that they get the best care possible. I love having friends for my doggy to play with! I enjoy watching other people's pets because it satisfies my urge to get another pet. I just moved to the Covington Area. I am a masters student and currently am free for drop ins or house sitting with your pet. I prefer to not put alot of miles on my car for further away drop ins I have a cocker spaniel for your dog to play with. We have cats so I prefer to stay at the owners residence. I send photos during every service. I will update you if something gets torn up by pets unintentionally. I am very good about cleaning up messes and maintaining a safe environment. I will keep you 100% updated on how your pet is doing.
“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!”
“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!”
“Jenny and her family were amazing!! They took care of my dog like he was their own. He had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Jenny also sent me awesome pictures of all the fun he was having. Thank you so much!”
“This was the 3rd time our pup stayed with Lisa and she always does a wonderful job! I love that she sends us photos and keeps us updated. She loves going to Lisa’s house and I know she is in good hands there. Will definitely continue to use her services in the future. Thank you Lisa!”
About: Since about 12 years old my neighborhood friends would hire me to dogs sit while their family went out of town. I’ve always had a huge amount of love for animals so I never had any problem doing so. Fast forward 5 years later my parents began breeding French bulldogs. My siblings and I had a lot of responsibility on our hands are far as feeding them, bathing, keeping them groomed, making sure they’re up to date on shots and etc. I currently work from home so that’s enables me with plenty of free time to walk, play with/take to the park, and feed your lovely animals! In my home my dog is crate trained. I do have a crate for my puppy for if friends come over and are not comfortable with him I can put him away for a few hours. I prefer all animals be crate trained , but only go to the crate if they would like to do so. I do not mind dogs walking around my house. I have a puppy of my own so every morning I get up and take my puppy on a 30 minute walk as well as every evening once I get home from work. I have an animal friendly house so I usually let pups/kittys run around the house as long as they’ve been fed and taken out for a potty break.
About: I’m Olivia and I love all animals, but dogs hold a special place in my heart and I can’t wait to meet yours! In addition to helping care for family pets for as long as I can remember, I have over 13 years experience caring for friends and neighbor’s dogs. I’m confident caring for all breeds, age, and size of dog! I began boarding and dog-sitting on Rover in 2019. I’m actively accepting new clients and excited to meet some new pups! ......... I have a 5 y.o. Goldendoodle, Mookie, who is my world. In addition to caring for him, I’d love to help you care for your babe. I take caring for pets very seriously, and wish to make it a positive experience for everyone! I am responsible, kind, and timely. I look forward to cuddling, playing, walking, and caring for your fur baby! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions. Currently I WFH and am available for boarding and occasional drop in visits. Your pet will be given my undivided attention during my time caring for them! I have one dog who no longer uses a crate while I am out of the house, but I can crate your pet upon request. All necessary measures are taken if I need to leave your fur baby alone for any reason (ex. Crating, calming music, medicine, etc.- whatever you specify that makes your baby comfortable!)
“Lexi was a life saver last minute and was great with my 2 month old puppy. She sent me lots of updates and my pup seemed to have a great time hanging out with her. Will book again!”
“Jessica was a great help at short notice to watch our pup Ollie for a doggy day care visit. Communication was easy and her response to my initial inquiry was super quick. Drop off and pick up was also easy, and Ollie came back happy and healthy! Thanks, Jessica!”
“Jonathan was super responsive and willing to do a meet and greet with us. Our dog can be nervous around bigger dogs, so this was really helpful. We were able to do a short 3-hour daycare soon after and really appreciated all of the updates that Jonathan shared throughout Penny's visit. Thanks, Jonathan!”
“Leeann was amazing with a last minute booking and being so flexible on drop off and pick up times. Thank you for finding a calm room for her to stay where she was comfortable too!”

About: I’m currently studying to be a vet assistant. Since I was a kid I’ve loved animals and have accumulated lots of knowledge over the years. I’ve been trusted to care for many family pets. I’m very calm and patient, and I’m excited to have the opportunity to care for your pets as well! I’m currently working part-time, early mornings. Mid-week, afternoons and weekends are the best times for me to care for and play with your babies! I live in a very quiet home and a very quiet neighborhood. We can sit and relax while I knit or easily walk down to the nearby observatory, park, or town square.
“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.”

About: Hi! I’m Reagan, and I’m from Northern Kentucky. I recently graduated from the University of Tennessee with a degree in Kinesiology, and I’ll be starting a career in orthopedic medical device sales in a few months. Until then, I wanted to spend my extra time doing something I genuinely love — being around animals! I’ve been dog sitting and caring for pets since high school, so I have about 6 years of experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. While Rover is a great way to make extra cash, I’m honestly doing this because I truly love animals and enjoy spending time with them. I currently have 3 dogs of my own: Roman (a Sheltie), Weller (a Lab), and Winnie (a rescued Lab mix we found on the side of the road and kept!). Having multiple dogs has taught me the importance of patience, exercise, attention, and routine when caring for pets. I have the most experience with dogs, including walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime, but I’m also comfortable caring for cats. I’m active, dependable, and will treat your pets like my own! I currently have a very flexible schedule before starting my full-time job in a few months, so I have plenty of time for your pets! I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the week and weekends. I’m active, reliable, and happy to help keep your pets comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routines and instructions while treating them like my own. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and pictures so you know they’re in good hands!
“Jared has been a life saver! I have 2 older dogs, one is rescue that had to learn a new name since we don’t know her original name. He really loves them and they are always so happy to see him. Working with him lets me working, uninterrupted, at my job a couple of days a week bringing so much peace of mind!”
“I struck gold with Heather. She came to the rescue over the holidays and was the first person to walk my Zeke dog without a prior meeting. Heather is trustworthy, reliable and communicative. She has become a staple as a sub on my guy’s care team. Her upbeat personality brings joy to Zeke with each interaction. Heather has an authentic connection with the animal kingdom and I’m happy for those reading this to have found her!”
“Cathy is a wonderful dogwalker! She was conscientious and caring regarding my older dog's needs. She communicates well and provided photos daily. Cathy made me feel at ease in trusting her with my dog and in my home.”
“Matthew and Archie hit it off immediately and for the next 7 days I knew that our pup was extremely well cared for. Matthew took great care of our dog and communicated well. We would definitely book him again and recommend Matt highly.”
About: I've had pet since my earliest memories. On top of caring for pets of my own, including cats, dogs, reptiles, arachnids, and more, I also fostered animals in southern Indiana for 5+ years. Now that I'm in the Cincinnati area I want to find a way to help animals again so I joined Rover! I currently work as a contractor for a delivery company so I choose my own hours, this way I have time to fit in the furry friends. I can come any time, day or night! When caring for pets in someones home I always make sure to have a list of things the pet parents want to make sure is done. I also make sure all cabinets and doors are secure before leaving a room, this way pets can't get into anything they shouldn't. When outside with the pups, I always make sure to keep them on the outside away from the road when walking on sidewalks.
About: I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and have experience with all ages, sizes, and pet kinds! I am a recent grad of Physical Therapy school, and I am in process of studying for my board exam so I am able to help take care of your pets pretty much any time! I will follow what ever system the owner has in place for their fur babies and ensure that they are being taken care of and getting exercise! Right now I am studying for a board exam, so unless I am going out of town for something, I am likely available to help take care of your fur babies. I am able to care for your pet no matter what type of housing (house, apartment, townhome). I work with the owner on what type of activity level the animal requires.
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!
“Walked my dog last minute on NYE. I frankensteined some directions to get in our building and walk the dog and Alexis did a fantastic job and was super communicative. Would recommend again!”
About: I am a cat owner and have several years of experience volunteering at an animal shelter spending time with dogs and cats while caring for them. I am off of work for the summer and have open availability for new clients. I am open to one-time and repeated visits both during the week, weekends, and holidays. I am looking for dog walking and drop-in visits. I follow the client's instructions and will contact the client with any questions. I love to play with animals and make sure that there needs are met.
About: I’ve grown up taking care of my own dogs and cats as well as dog sitting for neighbors and family friends! I have experience with various breeds and different sized dogs! I love them all:) I am a Registered Nurse, so I have multiple days off a week to spend caring for and loving on your pets while you’re away! I am incredibly flexible on how you would like your pet to be walked, groomed, fed, etc.! Your pet is so important and I want to be able to provide you with relief that they are well loved while you are away!
“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!”
