“Rachel was wonderful taking care Papi. She was very communicative and treated papi very well. He became attached to her children which was typical of Papi. I definitely recommend her as a sitter and will be looking to have her take him again.”
“Summer took great care of Lemmy! We got regular photos, she did a great job with his meds, and she was very patient with us in our first time using Rover. Summer, her family, and her own pets were great to our temperamental little chihuahua. Can’t thank her enough!”
“Madison is wonderful. It was easy to communicate with her. She was quick to respond to any questions I had. I felt totally comfortable leaving Speck with her. She sent photos and videos regularly. He had had a really fun time. I would highly recommend and plan to hire her again.”
“Our family chose Laura after reading great reviews, so we wanted to add to them! Laura was absolutely wonderful with our girl Sunny. She let us meet her ahead of our vacation and she sent updates with pictures every day that we were gone. We knew Sunny was in good hands and we were able to relax without worrying. You can feel good about leaving your fur babies with Laura! 🐾❤️”
“This was my first time using Rover and a dog sitter and it could not have gone better. Jane was excellent and sent me daily updates and photos. I had always used the bougie dog boarding places previously and my puppers would always come home stressed. This time, with Jane, it was completely different. They were stress free and relaxed. I would absolutely request dog sitting from Jane again. Thanks so much!!”
“Stephanie took a great care of our German Short Haired Pointer, Bella. Bella looked happy and healthy upon return home. Stephanie sent regular updates and pictures. She was prompt with communication as well. I can highly recommend Stephanie and her family if you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter for your pet.”
“Josie took this booking REALLY last minute (like 6 am day of) after we got delayed flying home. She stopped in before she went to work and made sure everyone had food and was okay. Her flexibility to fit this into her schedule was wonderful and helped us out so much. We love her taking care of our cats and the cats love her even more!”
“Christina is THE BEST!! Charlie loves her so much and I don’t have to worry when I’m out of town and Charlie is with her. She sends me pics and updates often. It really makes my heart happy that Charlie can stay with someone who’s so thoughtful and caring when we have to be away from her. ❤️”
“She kept us updated on Iris all weekend and was super flexible with a last minute reservation. We could tell from the pictures Iris was getting all the love and attention she wanted while with her!”

About: I offer over 13 years of hands-on experience within the performance horse industry and have been formally employed as a dedicated horse caretaker and groom since 2019. As an Equine Science major with a background working as a veterinary receptionist, I bring an advanced understanding of equine wellness, handling, and behavioral needs. Whether managing daily stable routines, monitoring herd health, or ensuring top-tier care for performance horses, I provide highly dependable, professional, and knowledgeable oversight for your animals. I have had personal experience with multiple dog breeds, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, and fish. I’m currently working a part-time job that is 5 minutes from my house, so I’ll be close to my home at all times and have flexibility with my schedule. I have home with land ranging at 9 acres that is in the county and away from other people. I also have a 3 year old female Aussiedoodle who is great with children & other dogs/animals, and is also updated on vaccines.
“Skye was wonderful with Rosie and kept me informed the whole time she had her with text messages and photos. She met me and Rosie a week earlier to get my dog familiar with her and was attentive and professional. Two paws up! I will definitely book with Skye if I need a dog sitter again.”
“We will be back ! Back yard was perfect for my energetic dog ! Area in her home was perfect for our elderly dog . So nice to leave town without a worry ! Thank you Samantha!”

About: I provide attentive, personalized care for cats of all personalities—from the social butterflies who want constant attention to the shy ones who prefer to observe from a safe distance. My professional animal-care experience has given me extensive knowledge of animal body language and behavior, allowing me to recognize when a cat is comfortable, stressed, overstimulated, or simply asking for some space. I believe cats deserve care on their terms, and I always take the time to build trust rather than forcing interaction. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including specialized medications and injections, making me comfortable caring for cats with additional medical needs. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, litter box habits, and overall demeanor so I can keep you informed about how your cat is doing. Whether your cat needs feeding, playtime, enrichment, medication, litter care, or simply some quiet companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with patience, respect, and plenty of love. 🐱❤️
“I believe Britney deserves five stars because she's always on time and very reliable. She always takes pictures of your pets and tells you everything that happened on her drop in visit. She really builds a bond with your pets as they will be waiting by the door for her to come in and give them attention.”
“Andrea (Annie) was prompt every day, sent regular photos and communication! Our pets got top shelf care and were in excellent condition when we got back home!! Andrea will be our go to sitter from now on!!”
“We cannot recommend these guys enough! They always take such amazing care of our cats and provide amazing updates and photos! We will use them anytime we go out of town. Our cats absolutely adore them.”
About: I have had dogs and various pets in my household since I was born and adore any animal. I am experienced in caring for puppies, senior dogs, and both large and small breeds. I understand that each pet has different needs and personalities and love helping to make a loving and safe space for them while their people are away. I am currently a full time Biology student at Marshall University. I can walk/check in on your pet(s) in the mornings, midday, or in the evenings. I am available to stay with your pet any nights. I will follow any instructions and schedule given. I like to make sure that pets get plenty of play and interaction time during the day and make it a priority to spend day time with your pets.
About: I’ve taken care of almost every animal imaginable, growing up we had three dogs, a cat, two birds, chickens, fish, a mini pig, you name it! I come from a very animal loving household. I’m also a zoo science major so I’m sure to take good care of your baby! I have a dog and two fish of my own, my Shorkies name is Clementine and my two fish are Thorfin and Goob. I’m currently an online student, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be home and available with your pets throughout the day. I’m available most days and can be flexible with walks, drop-ins, and pet-sitting needs. The only time I’m unavailable is Wednesdays from 2:00–3:30 PM due to a class. Back at my house we have a fenced area for our dogs to run around in but I’ve also crate trained dogs as well. At college my Clementine is crate trained and I take her for walks daily & often.
About: I’ve been recommended to many by word of mouth, so I decided to bring my business to Rover as well! There’s nothing I love more than being able to provide comfort for your pets whenever you’re away. Me and your pets will go on walks, play dates, and anything else they enjoy! Be prepared for lots of photos of us enjoying our days together! I am working part time while in graduate school. Ideally, I am available for overnight stays, whether it be for the weekend or two weeks! I also have sitter backups for any extra care needed in which I’m not able to tend to. I’m currently in graduate school at Morehead State in Ky and will be commuting twice weekly until May. I haven’t dog sat in my own home before because I have 2 dogs and a pig of my own. Caring for your home and pets is what is most important to me! I will always be easy to reach, whether it be by phone, text, or FaceTime! I will also water your plants, pick up your mail, take out the trash, etc.
“Tea did a great job taking care of our kitties! She was very flexible with accommodating my last minute request! I had comfort knowing my kitties were very well taken care of while we were gone!”
About: I used to be a kennel technician who walked dogs, practiced training, while offering playtime for them and cleaning up their space. I’ve always loved caring for animals and wildlife and want to branch out on my own. I have a very flexible schedule right now, all that’s needed is to message me and see how our availabilities line up! I integrate your pets life into mine. I have a variety of treats and food on hand, but will follow whatever diet your dog needs. I also have the time for high energy dogs or dogs that need training through e-collars or etc. I also own lots of toys and a large crate, or litter box if need be. If you have any more specific questions please ask!
About: I’ve lived on a farm my whole life and have taken care of pets and livestock my whole life. Over the past years, I have taken care of neighbors, friends, and family member’s dogs/cats. I have two dogs myself, a 4 year old red heeler and a 13 week old red heeler/corgi (cowboy corgi). I grew up with Labrador retrievers and a Great Pyrenees/Catahoula Leopard mix. I am used to and comfortable with all sizes and ages of dogs! I am originally from South Dakota and am now in Gallia County with my boyfriend who is from here. I am an online college student who is double majoring in Ag-Finance & Business Accounting. I farm with my boyfriend while completing my schooling online, so I have flexibility in my schedule! I do not live right on the road, and there is lots of room for your fur babies to run around and get exercise! The yard is not fenced in, but I am always outside when the dogs are! I have various sizes of wire kennels available if they need to be caged inside, and also have large kennels outside with shade over top of them. There are horses on the property with pasture room, so I always supervise the dogs in case they get too close. The horses have never tried to stomp or go after any dogs before.
About: I am a dog whisperer. They love me, I love them. I can make your cat or dog come out of their shell! I genuinely love taking care of other’s animals like they’re one of my own. I am a Division 1 College athlete. That being said, I have my schedule for the month and I am very willing to work tedious hours for your pet. I will treat your home with the upmost respect. I will consider where the best places to walk your dog would be. I will locate and clean the cat’s litter box consistently. Your animal will always have water! And food of course!
“Chloe is the best sitter ever! She gave us piece of mind while doing excellent work. She made her last visit right before we returned home so the boxes and bowls would be tidy. She gave extra attention to our cats. Booking her is the best option out there. Highly recommend”
“Skye is absolutely the best in-home pet sitter we have ever used to care for our two Ragdolls. Her communication throughout our absence is excellent, with frequent updates and photos. The cats are both happy and healthy when we return home and the house is just as clean as when we left. We highly recommend Skye's wonderful service.”

“Christina was wonderful with Asher. He is so nervous around new people and he was snuggling with her in no time. She’ took wonderful care of him and updated with pictures. Could not be more thankful.”
About: As a lifelong dog owner, caring for pups is second nature to me. I know exactly how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet, which is why I prioritize clear communication, frequent updates, and plenty of personalized attention. From daily walks and interactive playtime to cozy cuddle sessions, I tailor my care to match your dog's specific personality and energy level. I look forward to treating your beloved pet like a member of my own family. I currently stay at Home so I am available any time of the day. This allows me to easily accommodate custom feeding, walking, and medication schedules. I have a small yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. My yard is not fenced, so I always take guests on guided walks and trips to the local park for secure, energetic exercise. My pet is a miniature poodle who loves to play and cuddle. For bedtime, guests can sleep comfortably right in my bedroom or use a dedicated spare room depending on their routine.
“Skye took great care of my dog, Brady, while I had drill for a few days. She sent me pictures everyday and kept me well-informed about how he was doing. Definitely would recommend!”

In a clients home I let the animals do what they would do on a regular day if owners were home, while still closesly monitoring to be sure they stay safe and behaved!

About: I am looking to provide love and care to your fur babies when you aren’t able to. I have two fur babies of my own currently and have had many in the past. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all different shapes and sizes! I look forward to meeting your fur babies and caring for them like my own. I work as a bus driver so between my morning and evening run I have plenty of time to make stop ins and check on pet and/or take them for a walk. My partner works from home which provides a flexible schedule. Unfortunately, I am currently unable to care for your pets in my home due to our young children. However, your pets safety and comfort will be a top priority for me when coming into your home to care for them.
About: I’ve had many pets since a very young age, from small kittens that were 4oz that needed bottle fed to giant Rottweilers that weigh more than me. Feeding, bathing, grooming, walks, medical instructions, cuddling, potty times, etc. I work from home so I do my pets’ care during breaks, before and after working, and before I go to sleep for the night. Day to day basis. Sometimes if I get up in the middle of the night for the ladies room, I check on them before laying back in bed. I take care of them like a mother does for her baby, by giving and doing everything that needs to be done for your pet to be happy and healthy.
