Personalized care for your dog or cat - Dayton
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Dayton
“This review is long overdue! Gina and Erik watched our two golden retrievers while in Tahoe for a family gathering in May 2023. They treated our dogs like their own and sent us lots of updates, photos and videos of our dogs during their stay. Our dogs looked SO HAPPY and clearly LOVED Gina and Erik. During a thunderstorm, one of our dogs was scared and Gina made a rub of essentials oils to help calm him, and Erik gave him hugs on the couch. They gave them such love, pets and hugs and we couldn't have asked for better dog sitters during our time in Tahoe. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you Gina and Erik!”
“Leaving your dogs is never easy, but Christine made it seamless for us and joyful for Willow and Jones. She treated them like her own, created a warm space, and shared the sweetest updates. We came home to relaxed, happy pups, which says everything.”
“Boomer had a great time with Christina and her family. She sent pics of him while he was in her care which made us feel even more comfortable leaving him. We would definitely leave him with Christina again.”
“Laura was terrific with Millie. She made certain Millie ate even to the point of hand feeding Millie in the beginning of the nine day stay. Laura gave daily reviews. She gave the medication as needed. We highly recommend Laura.”
“Very communicative and took great care of our pup! It was my first time leaving our dog with someone else and she did an OUTSTANDING job, our dog settled in quick and had a great time. Thank you!”
“Anne May is simply amazing. I cannot say enough how grateful I am to have found somebody who takes care of my little buddy so attentively and lovingly. I always have peace of mind when Ernie gets to stay with this great person.”
“Faith took amazing care of my two cats for week while I was out of town. From the start, communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. it She sent daily updates and photos, which really helped ease our mind while we were away. Both of our cats warmed up to her quickly and seem super relaxed the entire time! If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive to look after your pets, she’s the right one!”
“Gracie had a great time with Dain and Jade. They provided lots of love, activity and walks. Just what our active girl needs. We were very comfortable leaving her with them for 5 nights.”
“So happy we found Kendra! We are new to the area and had to find a new sitter. Kendra was reassuring our pup would be in good hands, asked all the right questions to ensure she could give good care, and was flexible with our schedule. Our girl enjoyed her stay and we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Patty and Randy did a great job with our dog Bronco, making him a part of their family right away and giving us peace of mind he was well taken care of.”
“Lisa was amazing with sending us consistent updates of our Lucy! It made us feel very comfortable and confident that she was having a great time. Would definitely book again!”
About: Animals bring me peace and joy and I just can't help but want to be around them to support them. I have raised dogs and other animals throughout my life. I have had cats, fish, hamsters, and even hermit crabs. Animals are always full of life and hope. I have two dogs now. A mother and daughter. It really shows me how deep animals can feel. I love them. Pet sitting is my priority. I spend 24/7 at home unless I am at the park or running errands. I can devote ample time to pet care. I have a fenced yard and two small dogs. They go for walks, trips to the park, as well as off road fun. Like hiking, kayaking, and trail walks.
“This was my first time using Rover for overnight boarding of my two puppies. I was pleasantly surprised with Farrah! She was responsive and provided good updates on my furbabies. Her location is in a VERY nice part of town. I would book with her again because she took great care of my furbabies.”
“My pups are the most important thing in my life, and I'm hesitant to let anyone I haven't known for years watch them. Wendy and her husband put me at ease and immediately clicked with Mosby. He can be wary of new places or dogs, but within a day he looked happier there than he was with his usual back. I received plenty of updates and had zero worries while my special little guy was in her care.”
“Ron is a treasure. I was very hesitant to leave my 2 year old pup with someone, but felt confident with Ron after our first interview. His home is neat, clean, and pet friendly with a beautiful, safe backyard. Our first booking was for 3 days to orient my Charlie-girl to Ron, preceding the 2 upcoming long stays I have booked. Total success! Ron sent pictures and comments each day and it was clear that Charlie was getting superior care. Ron is loving and cares for his boarders, and his dog Lexi is very patient with having another dog in the house getting attention.”
“Kat and Corey were wonderful! They took excellent care of our special-needs bulldog and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear she was well cared for and loved. We would absolutely trust them with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, dependable sitters!”

“Rachel as always did an amazing job taking care of my two kitties! Very communicative and sent lots of pictures to update me. I would highly recommend her and Dylan to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Nothing had work out due to my work situation but Olivia maintained communication. I haven't really finish the profile yet I was in hurry to introduce my cats to outside world..they've been with me since divorce so I don't know how they react towards others..1 mom 3 babies all girls. I'm testing the water on this site and find it actually might work if I do decided to go out town.”
About: For cats specifically I have lots of hands-on experience including a year of volunteering at a cat sanctuary feeding, socializing, and cleaning litter boxes for up to 30 cats of all ages and personalities. I also have two cats of my own that are 10 years old, so I have plenty experience with a variety of litter box setups and routines, as well as administering both pills or liquid medications. I understand that cats are very routine oriented animals, and I will make sure to stick to their routine and follow any special instructions that you leave for me to ensure they are comfortable while you’re away! Whether your cat is a social butterfly who wants lots of attention, or a shy kitty who prefers to keep their distance, I’ll respect their individual personality and let them set the pace. Cats are my one true love and I can’t wait to help care for yours!
“Melody is a fantastic cat sitter. My skittish male cat warmed right up to her. Melody stayed with him for two days. Seeing the pictures of my happy cat reinforced my confidence in Melody. Melody is punctual and respectful of both the client’s time and space. I highly recommend her.”
About: With over 7 years of professional sitter experience, I’m the person you call when you have a very specific way that you like things done, and would really like to leave town without worrying about any of it😆 I genuinely love getting to know animals. I actually want the detailed instructions. My background is in private home management and personal concierge work, so looking after the house comes naturally to me too. If I’m staying in your home, I’m paying attention for mail and packages that may come in. Pet areas kept clean. Plants don't mysteriously die. Trash doesn't pile up. If something looks wrong, I notice it. I've cared for multiple-pet households, senior dogs, pets with special needs and homes during multi-month stays. I'm CPR/First Aid certified for cats and dogs, comfortable following medication routines, including oral and injected medications. I work remotely, which gives me an abundance of flexibility and means I actually do spend time with the animals I'm caring for😉 I work remotely, so I organize my schedule around the animals I'm caring for rather than trying to squeeze them into my day. Morning walk at 6:30? Fine. Medication with dinner? Can do. Your dog insists on conducting a complete neighborhood security inspection before bed? Why not? Because, apparently that's what we're doing! 🤷🏾♀️😆 I enjoy it and try to make it fun for your pet. I care for pets in their own home whenever possible and I follow your routines for meals, walks, medications, playtime, bedtime rituals, and all the little quirks that make your pet your pet. I’m also looking after the household while I’m there too. I keep things tidy, bring in packages, monitor the home, and make sure you return to happy pets and a cared-for space. I’m warm with animals and extremely self-sufficient. I'm also a good communicator. You're going to hear from me. You'll get photos, updates and anything important that comes up while you're away And if your dog happens to look suspiciously happy without you, I will gladly provide photo evidence. 😁
About: I have hands on experience working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. In addition to dogs, I have experience handling and caring for cats and small animals, including rodents. Pet care is an important and fulfilling part of my weekly routine. I work a job, so I’m fully available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. If there is a change, I will notify you. On the other days, I can provide care between the hours of 7- 10 PM. I make sure to plan my schedule carefully, so both of our schedules align and so I can give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I make it a priority to keep them comfortable by following their usual routine... feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and more. I give them as much love and affection as I would my own, always aiming to keep their tails wagging, etc. I treat every home with respect and make sure it stays secure and clean. I also send regular updates and photos to the owners so they can feel at ease, knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Katelyn is amazing! She goes above & beyond to make sure your fur babies are well cared for while you’re away. She’s given my family such peace of mind with photo updates, staying in touch, quick responses, & her schedule flexibility. I highly recommend her if you need someone to care for your furry family!”
About: I have had multiple dogs in my household my entire life. I have house-sat for my family, neighbors, and friends and enjoy taking care of them. I have experience training my own puppies and helping with others. I have taken care of many different breeds and all types of energy levels and ages as well as those with physical and or mental disabilities. I am highly flexible and capable of providing whatever type of pet care is needed from check-ins and walks to spending entire days with them. I will treat your dogs as I treat my own and make sure their needs are met and they are happy and healthy. I can walk multiple times a day for high energy breeds or be company for long periods when they are alone. I make sure to take my dogs out multiple times a day and since they are naturally more anxious I try to keep them in stress free environments.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 and still love doing it. Dogs make my day better and I love spending quality time with them. I currently work a full time job as a amazon delivery driver, I normally have Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursday's off. I enjoy spending time with dogs on my free time. I have a fenced backyard with lots of room. I have 3 dogs both are super friendly and love playing. But if a dog ever comes over no matter the circumstances, dogs will never be left unattended and separated.

“This was our first time booking through Rover.com and we cannot be more pleased! Wendy took excellent care of our animals while we were away and sent us frequent updates.

About: I have owned and trained dogs of all ages. I currently have a 5 yr old purebred yellow lab who is a service dog. I have experience with behavior challenges and dogs with medical needs. I am dedicated and committed to caring for your pet as an extension of you. Our dog is with us almost 20+ hours a day so close to around the clock companionship and oversight will be provided. I have a fenced yard as well as a doggie door. Your fur baby will have everything he/she needs to be happy and loved. Consider it a doggy vacation resort.
“Jessica is fantastic! She made sure to arrange for our dog Andrey to meet their dog before doing daycare/boarding in order to make sure the pooches would get along happily, and they sure did. Their dog Cap is a cutie! Jessica took great care of Andrey, giving him lots of attention and supervising his happy playtime with Cap. Her home is an excellent environment, and she took Andrey on nice long walk as well. He came home happy, healthy, and tired, just like we'd hoped. I highly recommend Jessica to entrust with your pooch.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for neighbors, doctors, hospital CEOs, friends and family ever since I was 10. All types of dogs and requests and breeds. I’m at home unless I’m running to the grocery store or doing an extracurricular activity. I can be here for your fur babies when you have to be away. 😻 I have a 6ft fenced yard. I have the ability to separate my yard into 6 different areas at nearly half an acre. I have multiple kennels and some with tops and grooming and bathing equipment. In home day care is heavily screened. Your dog will not have access to the inside of my home, kids, or my pets. Large outdoor area and garage kennels will be fully accessible. Kennels are cleaned with vet rescue which kills parvo. Fresh water in kennels and outside. All are properly sanitized. Health and safety is top priority for everyone. Puppies not fully vaccinated will be in a separate area. Walks, my children will be attending if dogs are child friendly.
About: I’m a small-breed dog mom to two friendly Shih Tzus. I’ve trained both of them from puppyhood, so I’m experienced in teaching calm behavior, basic obedience, and creating a well-structured environment for small dogs. I’m happy to reinforce good manners. I have a fenced backyard and a fenced small-breed dog park within walking distance, and we go there every other day for playtime and socializing. Leonard and Taylor are both gentle, well-behaved, and great companions for visiting pups. My home is calm, clean, and ideal for small-breed dogs who enjoy a safe and friendly environment. I’m available full time for boarding on weekends and holidays. On weekdays, my two Shih Tzus—Leonard (born April 2024) and Taylor (born March 2025)—stay home from about 10am to 6pm. They are used to a calm routine and do very well together. If your dog is comfortable being without a human for part of the day, weekday boarding can also work. I live in a house with a fenced backyard and a fenced small-breed dog park within walking distance. We go there every other day for playtime and sniff walks. Both Leonard and Taylor are friendly, gentle Shih Tzus who make great company for visiting small dogs. My home is clean, safe, and perfect for small breeds. I also have both small and medium crates available if you prefer your dog crated.
“Jessica was an amazing Rover for our puppy. We dropped her off in the morning at Jessica’s home and picked her up after a day of skiing during our week at Northstar. Jessica was super flexible and very easy to communicate with. She even walked down to the main road to get phoebe when her small street was nearly snowed in. Very accommodating and kind!”

About: I have a wide range of pet care experience: training my childhood dogs, pet sitting for neighbors growing up, and a year of full time pet sitting. During that time, I cared for everything from small puppies, to cats, to senior dogs who required administration of daily insulin shots. I also volunteered at a pet rescue for over a year and completed tasks such as cleaning kennels and socializing our more timid or anxious animals. When I care for your fur babies, I will make sure they feel happy and safe while you’re away! Whether they’re couch potatoes or could play fetch for hours, I promise to make sure they feel loved and have a blast. I will also make sure to strictly stick to their normal routines and follow any special instructions you leave to ensure they’re comfortable while their parents are gone. Additionally, I will make sure to take lots of cute and goofy pictures for you :) As a pet parent myself, the pictures are my favorite part of hiring a rover sitter! I am a stay at home wife so my schedule is very flexible! My only work at this time is as a caregiver for a woman with special needs from 9am-2pm on Wednesdays and Fridays. Other than that, I can be available early in the morning, late at night, on weekdays or weekends, whatever you and your pets need! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I’ll follow their normal routine and all care instructions closely, give them plenty of supervision and attention, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Rachel and Dylan are awesome! They respond quickly. They take great care of our fur babies! I can tell they actually enjoy our dogs and I feel like my dogs are happier when we get home compared to others in the past! We will definitely try to book them when we need our next Rover!!!”

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! He has quickly become such an important part of Zara’s routine. The second she realizes he’s at the door to pick her up, she completely loses her mind with excitement—it’s the sweetest thing to watch. She absolutely adores him, and it’s clear the feeling is mutual. He is incredibly patient, attentive, and genuinely cares about the dogs he looks after. Knowing Zara is happy, loved, and so excited to spend time with him gives me complete peace of mind. It’s not easy finding someone you trust with your dog, but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. We feel so lucky to have found him!”
“Carrie is awesome. When I sent her a message, she responded back super fast and is great about communicating when she can or cannot walk my dog. She is always punctual and has a wonderful personality. 😊”

About: Hi, I'm Shaylin. I'm a recent grad in the USC area with a flexible schedule and genuine love for dogs — I've pet sat through Rover before and I'm back on the platform for dog walking through mid-May. I'll show up on time, send you photos and updates, and treat your dog like I'd want mine treated — patient on leash, attentive, and happy to match their pace whether that's a sniff-walk or a real workout. I'm traveling internationally starting May 18, so I'm best for clients who need walks in the next few weeks or who are open to a great walker for a defined window. If that works for you, I'd love to meet your pup. I am available to house sit and am happy to stay in your home at night if that makes your animal the most comfortable. I can drop in or go out for a walk throughout the day -- very flexible schedule. I would love to meet you and your animal before the stay if I am house sitting, or dropping in. I am happy to meet your pet the day of for walks. I understand that every animal and home is unique - I would love to be acquainted with your preferences.
About: I have taken care of dogs, pretty much my whole life, and have experience with all sorts of dogs. From golden retrievers to dobermans, pit bulls, chihuahuas, and German shepherds, I have experience with all kinds of temperaments and dogs and am able to handle and care for all of them in the ways they need. I volunteer at the Nevada Humane Society and have completed a Fear Free Certification. I have trained all of the dogs I have taken care of and am very dedicated to making sure that they are well taken care of. When they are your best friend, they deserve the best. I will make sure that your dog gets plenty of love and care, and will be played with, and walked around to give them the socialization and exercise they need and want. I currently work full time, but have weekends off, and can sometimes do evenings, and love to spend my free time with pets. I fit pet care into my weekly routine by caring for a german shepherd weekly. I provide care for the pets by taking them on walks, and following any other normal care that the pet would typically require. I have 2 five year old german shepherds, as well as a 13 year old cat, so I am well equipped in dealing with multiple pets as well.
“If you are looking for a caring person to look after your beloved pets, look no further! My husband and I cannot say enough great things about Cleo. We were an ongoing client of hers for 9 or 10 months, Mon-Fri. She was flexible, responsible, and treated our dogs like they were her own. Our 2 pups absolutely adore her! Only reason we stopped the routine services with her is due to life changes on our behalf, but she will definitely be our #1 go-to if we ever go out of town!”
About: Hi, I’m Annette! I’m a reliable, attentive dog sitter based in Incline Village with a flexible schedule and a calm, grounded approach to care. My goal is to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well-attended to, whether through neighborhood walks, quality time at home, or overnight companionship. I focus on providing a peaceful and structured environment for the pets in my care. Because of this, I am a great fit for dogs who enjoy a relaxed pace and steady routine, though I may not be the best match for those requiring highly intensive outdoor exercise or off-leash adventure outings. Being based in Incline Village with a flexible consulting schedule means I can get to most local neighborhoods quickly for drop-ins or walks This allows me to be highly responsive to your pet’s needs, whether that’s a last-minute drop-in or staying at your home to keep your pet company during the day. Since I set my own hours, your pet’s routine becomes my priority. I believe pets are family members who deserve the same respect and care as any other resident. In a client’s home, my priority is maintaining the 'status quo' to minimize stress. I start by learning your pet’s specific cues, favorite hiding spots, and unique quirks. Whether it’s following a precise feeding ritual or ensuring the exact level of evening companionship they are used to, I treat your home and your pet with the utmost integrity. I am naturally observant and communicative, so you’ll receive regular updates and photos that capture your pet’s true comfort level.

“This review is long overdue! Gina and Erik watched our two golden retrievers while in Tahoe for a family gathering in May 2023. They treated our dogs like their own and sent us lots of updates, photos and videos of our dogs during their stay. Our dogs looked SO HAPPY and clearly LOVED Gina and Erik. During a thunderstorm, one of our dogs was scared and Gina made a rub of essentials oils to help calm him, and Erik gave him hugs on the couch. They gave them such love, pets and hugs and we couldn't have asked for better dog sitters during our time in Tahoe. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you Gina and Erik!”

I have had cats, fish, hamsters, and even hermit crabs. Animals are always full of life and hope. I have two dogs now. A mother and daughter. It really shows me how deep animals can feel. I love them. Pet sitting is my priority. I spend 24/7 at home unless I am at the park or running errands. I can devote ample time to pet care. I have a fenced yard and two small dogs. They go for walks, trips to the park, as well as off road fun. Like hiking, kayaking, and trail walks.
“My pups are the most important thing in my life, and I'm hesitant to let anyone I haven't known for years watch them. Wendy and her husband put me at ease and immediately clicked with Mosby. He can be wary of new places or dogs, but within a day he looked happier there than he was with his usual back. I received plenty of updates and had zero worries while my special little guy was in her care.”
“Kat and Corey were wonderful! They took excellent care of our special-needs bulldog and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear she was well cared for and loved. We would absolutely trust them with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, dependable sitters!”
“Ivy took great care of our boy! She sent us pictures and messages about how he was doing. He appeared happy and healthy upon pick up. Ivy has a big back yard that worked well with our energetic and active Labrador. I would highly recommend Ivy as a trusted pet sitter!”
“Jacob and his fiancée did such a wonderful job taking care of Teddy! He provided photos and updates often and I was confident he was being well taken care of. My puppy always looked so happy and like he was always having so much fun!”
“Kristin and Jeff were so kind and responsive, shared great updates, and were able to get my girl to eat. They were flexible in the event I had travel delays. I’d be happy to book them again!”
“Aaron and Nicole were great. Our pup was comfortable with them right away. They have a warm, dog-safe environment and the whole family seems to really care for the dogs. Will definitely book with them again.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Ryan and Ashlee! My dog is a recent rescue and I was so worried about leaving him but they were so caring and I am so very appreciative ❤️ Will definitely book with them again!”
“Crystal is amazing! She sent me several pictures and videos of our dog. He stayed several nights and looked relaxed. He went out on adventures which I loved seeing! Thankful!!!”
“This is our third time having Brittany watch our dogs. She was able to accommodate us at the last minute, and we never have to worry when we leave the dogs with her. She was amazing with them, as always!”
