“Hatsuki is a wonderful mommy for my kitty, Vivi. She is genuinely compassionate and a caring person for the animals who cannot talk. She gave a very comfortable home for Vivi during her stay. Thank you, Hatsuki, for all you have done to me and my kitty. Vivi said she was happy to have met you, and looking forward to meeting with you again. Many thanks for your kindness. Makiko”
“Tara far exceeded our expectations in caring for our 13 year old Goldendoodle. Tara provided incredible care and it’s clear her family is deeply committed to the pets for which they care. We will definitely bring Baylee back, because she already misses them! thank you to Tara and her family!”
“Rachel and her family treated my dog very well! Look forward to hiring again. I appreciate how she stepped up in a pinch after my reserved sitter wasn’t able to watch two days before Christmas/same day I was flying out.”
“Jaqueline was an absolute delight! She was so friendly, communicative, and sent plenty of pictures while my dog was with her. It was clear she took good care of him and I highly recommend her!”
“I have never felt so comfortable with leaving my dog with anyone! We went on a five day getaway and Jessica&Carol took care of my dog, Teddy, like he was one of their own! 1000% would use them again. ?”
“Derik and Megan are wonderful. They took on a challenge or what I would call a challenge by caring for my little boogie baby. They treated him so well as if he was their own. They kept me updated with pictures and text. I wouldn't ask for a better dog sitter. They made us feel at ease with our baby knowing it was our first time ever boarding him. Thank you again!”
“Kyri has been great each time 😊 She is always so nice and patient. Emir loves her and enjoys his time at her house. I appreciate the fact that she communicates daily and sends pics and videos to update me on how he's doing. Also, Emir gets to socialize with other dogs in a safe environment.”
“Ryan is great! He has watched Niko, our GS mix a few times now. This last time we were gone for over a week, when we picked up Niko he was freshly bathed and tuckered out from his 3mile walk. We hope to use Ryan again!!!”
“Ashleigh & Bill took superior care of our golden retrievers! Absolutely top-notch! From the initial meeting with their dog Tucker, to the pictures & text updates, to wrapping up the visit; Ashleigh and Bill showed kindness & care. They truly opened thier home to our pups and they treated them like family. We highly recommend their care & services.”
“Pietro was absolutely amazing!! Maple is nervous around men but she was so comfortable with him. He sent plenty of pictures and videos and even kept her a few hours longer to help me out since I broke my leg. Would definitely recommend!!”
“Treven loved having other dogs to play with and Vanessa provided extra reassurance that things were going well throughout his stay. I hope he is able to stay with her and her family again.”
“Lashonna is fantastic. A great meet-and-greet, very accommodating on pick up and drop off, great communication, and most importantly our dog seems very happy with the stay.”
“Catherine was very accommodating and responsive. Appreciate all her photos and text updates. Adam was a pleasure to deal with, too. Hoping to interact with them more often!”
“Joanne watched our 2 dogs, she and her family welcome them as their own. After a negative experience at a kennel, I'm so relieved to have such a wonderful caretaker for my 2 furry guys. ”
“Nate and Whitney did an amazing job watching Mac! They sent many updates and pictures of how Mac was doing while he stayed with them. When I picked him up the next day he was exhausted so it is safe to say he had a blast staying with them. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
About: I've cared for and trained dogs since I was 5 years old, from dogs small enough to fit in your purse to Great Danes! Feeding, bathing, walking, clipping nails, brushing, the whole nine yards. I work in the gig economy, so my schedule is mine to fit and mold to my whim with the exception of friend and family needs. If your pet is in my care, you can rest assured that they will be my top priority. I live in an inclusive community village with a friendly senior dog (and two cats from my roommate). There's many walkways to explore with zero risk of the road. If you want me to care for your pet in your home, I can entrust the care of my dog to my roommate and dedicate a majority of my time to watching over your lovely animal.
“This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience! Courtney and Jordan took great care of my dog and I was able to enjoy my trip away without worry.”

“Will was amazing. Very flexible with my schedule and more than willing to provide extra care for my puppy who had stitches. You can tell he has a true love for dogs. He cared for my dog as if he were his own. Couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter!”
“Beth was fantastic with our cats, taking care to make sure they were fed and played with them wonderfully! She was very attentive and friendly during our initial meeting and we felt extremely confident leaving our babies in her care. Highly recommend.”
“We highly recommend Rayme as a pet sitter as she is professional and trustworthy. Rayme followed feeding and medication instructions to the letter while ensuring the best care of our asthmatic cat. Having Rayme as our pet sitter while we were out of the country removed our worries and we appreciated her focused report outs.”
“Valerie was absolutely wonderful!!! She FAR exceeded my expectations! She responded to my request within an hour and had excellent communication with me the entire time. My son is out of town and she went to his apartment to check on his cat, Luna. Luna is extremely shy and rarely comes out for anyone — she barely comes out for me — but Valerie was so patient and gentle with her. She stayed with Luna, sent me photos and updates, and even cleaned out a very unpleasant litter box that I truly didn’t expect anyone to deal with. That alone meant so much. You can immediately tell she has a genuine love for animals and such a kind, caring soul❤️. Valerie is recently retired and clearly does this because she truly loves animals, and it shows in the level of care she gives. I cannot say enough good things about her!! I will absolutely be using her again and again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and incredibly kind with their pets. 🐾❤️❤️❤️”
“Joanna was amazing with our last minute booking. She spent time getting to know our cat, which was so great! She is very professional and will ensure that your animal is well taken care of. Thank you Joanna!”
“Our cats were very well cared for! Jenna is a good communicator which made our first experience with Rover a great one. I highly recommend Jenna G. and would not hesitate to book with her again.”
“Aine is super nice and attentive to the animals. She’s been sending frequent updates on her drop ins and even befriended my very reclusive cat quickly. Will definitely have Aine watch her again in the future!”
“Emma did such a wonderful job with drop in visits for my cats while I was out of town! One of my kitties needed extra special attention and some eye drops and she was so good with him and getting those done each visit throughout the day. She is excellent with the cats and they loved her. I highly recommend her.”
“Trenton was absolutely amazing. Very caring and thorough in his care for beau, and was flexible and accommodating. You can’t go wrong with Trenton! Highly recommend.”
“Brad was awesome! Came and checked on our kitties every day we were gone and did exactly what I asked of him. Super communicative and sent lots of photos. Would definitely book with him again.”
“Jen is very patient and took her time getting to know my cats. She didn't rush them and they came around and got to know her. She is timely and took care of everything as requested.”
“Alyssa took great care of my cat while I was out of town for a couple days! He (my cat) can be a bit shy around new people, but he came out on the very first drop-in to say hi! I would definitely ask Alyssa to watch him again in the future 😺”
“Sandy took great care of our cat. She kept in contact with me and sent pictures each day. She always responded on a timely manner. She even fed our hummingbirds. I highly recommend Sandy to care for your pets.”
“isabel is our favorite sitter we’ve had! she’s so attentive, and has gone out of her way to take care of prismo while we were out. i think prismo enjoys seeing a familiar face, and he’s always so happy to play with her! she’ll always be our #1 choice!!”
About: I’ve had cats for 10 years and fostered for just under a year. In my short time of rescue work I have bottle fed 17 kittens, watched a litter be born, and administered many medications. I’ve perfected the art of bathing cats, cleaning litter boxes, and befriending the beasts.
“Annika was absolutely wonderful. She sent us tons of pictures and was great with our cats. She quickly endeared herself to our exceptionally scaredy cat and you could see in all the pictures how much attention and affection they got. Annika communicated super well and went above and beyond to ensure all of their needs were met. She will now be our first call when we need someone to watch our critters. Cannot say enough good things about her.”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“We’re so happy we found Arlissa to care for our Aubie. Great communication from booking through drop off and pickup. Arlissa’s front porch is fenced and gated, her yard is an “amusement park” for dogs. We appreciate the photos and comments while Aubie was in her care. Arlissa truly cares for the welfare of a “fur baby” in her care. If we travel through here again, we would use her services without hesitation.”
“Tara and her family provided a wonderful, safe, and caring daycare environment for my two small dogs. She is professional, kind, and thoughtful. I scheduled her right away to board my two dogs for an upcoming weekend trip.”
“Catherine and Hubby are a wonderful team. They both love animals and they take such good care of my fur baby, just like she's their own. If you need care I highly recommend THEM!”
“Wow! Incredible! I hesitate to leave an awesome review because she was so unlike any other sitter and I want her all for my dog. Hatsuki is on another level. I went to do an introductory meet and greet. Her house was immaculate, very clean and organized. Hatsuki had printed (let me say it again, she printed a sheet!) a profile of clutch so she can make notes about his needs. Again this was just a meet and greet, she also made a thumb drive with a tag that had clutch’s name. This was so she can give me all the pictures she would take including the ones she would send me as updates throughout the day. Thank you Hatsuki you were amazing!”
“Rachel took such good care of my dog. Millie got lots of love and attention throughout the whole day. Rachel kept me updated and sent me lots of pictures. I HIGHLY recommend her for your pet needs.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and puppies for 11 years . Had puppies and cats when younger I had to walk and feed and give potty breaks I’m currently at home most of the time so I would have plenty of time to take care of your furry beautiful puppy . I will feed play give them water I have a fenced yard that he or she can play in . I always take them on a leash for a potty break. I have two puppies at home they can play with
“Laklyn and her partner watched our dogs for the day and our dogs clearly had a great time. When they got home they were worn out. She fed them breakfast and they also went on a walk. Thank you for watching them!”
About: For the past 8 years, I have been involved in rescue work and have gained experience fostering dogs and cats of varying ages and personalities. I have also worked at a dog training facility, gaining more experience and knowledge of dogs' body language, needs, and training. From caring for newborn puppies to senior dogs, from fearful to playful, every experience has been fulfilling. I am a proud owner of three rescue fur babies who bring love and joy into my life every day. I will forever be grateful for all the lessons they taught me and continue teaching me every day about love, joy, compassion, appreciation and patience I believe in using positive reinforcement methods and showing patience and creativity when handling animals. I have deep respect for their unique personalities and always strive to ensure their safety and well-being, fostering positive associations and allowing them the freedom to make choices independently Hey there! I recently relocated to Dayton and am looking for opportunities to spend as much time as possible with animals. I am fascinated by animal psychology and behaviour, and by how they learn and communicate. I regularly take my pups to dog classes in the evenings, go on long walks during the day and study online from home I have three beautiful pets to keep your fur baby company, or I can separate them so your paw-friend has peace of mind and personal space. If you prefer to keep your sweet little one in the crate, we will make it a calm, relaxing experience with a yummy food puzzle and classical music in the background. When pet sitting at your place, I can follow your instructions and guidance to make sure the little paws have everything they need. I enjoy spending time teaching dogs good manners and new skills. We practice obedience training with my pups every day, and my cat just started learning new tricks too. If you like, I can create an individual training plan for your pet during their stay, or you can let me know what to work on, and I'll make sure your pup is receiving the training. Any training is welcome, from puppy training to obedience to learning new skills. Change is stressful and scary, so I will make sure your fur baby has enough attention, physical exercise and mental stimulation. I have plenty of interactive toys for busy-minded pups, as well as lots of ideas for healthy, long-lasting snacks, such as food puzzles, KONG toys, lick mats, and sniffle games. And I'm always open to trying new activities if our furry friend has a favourite toy or game
About: My wife and I have been taking care of our dog and foster dogs for the past 6 years. We've taken care of dogs ranging in size of French bulldogs to Siberian huskies. We have experience with high maintenance dogs and giving medications as well. My wife and I currently work from home and have plenty of time to play and take care of your pups. During the week boarding availability is best in the evening after 5 but accommodations can be made if needed. Weekends are 100% free and open. I have a larger fenced in yard and great neighborhood for plenty of walks. I can easily crate your dog if needed as well. We have plenty of different dog toys and beds throughout the house too.
“I was coming to a Dayton Ohio for work and I was bringing my mini golden doodle pup along. I needed someone trustworthy to watch my baby boy, Arlo. I came across Katherine’s profile and immediately had that instinct that she was the one 😊 she was accommodating to my over protective mommy needs and agreed to hop on a zoom call with me beforehand. She was warm, nice and kind. It also helped she has 3 adorable little fur baby girls too. For the 4 days I was here for work she would take care of Arlo for me all day. She was extremely responsive and would send me pictures and videos all day without me even having to ask. She has a nice big fenced in backyard that Arlo loved running around freely in all day. Each evening I would pick him up he was exhausted from having fun playing all day. (His besty was her dog, Vanilla) 😊 I cannot recommend Katherine enough. She made my experience great and worry free. Thank you so much for taking great care of Arlo.”
About: I have spent a lifetime caring for my own pets as well as rescuing animals. I think pets are an extremely important part of my livelihood and good mental health so I understand that your pet is an integral part of your family as well. I also understand that I am a guest in your pets home and will treat your home with the utmost respect and privacy. I am a mom, a wife and an Air Force veteran and I understand that schedules change due to work, family needs, and sickness. Being a stay at home mom with school age children allows me to be flexible and reliable. I also received my OH-EMT Intermediate medic training at WPAFB while serving in the military. I am very comfortable administering medications and any treatments. As of 2023 I also obtained my Instructor Animal CPR and First Aide Instructor Certification. I am a full time pet care specialist/trainer. I specialize with dogs that have anxiety disorders that can show themselves as aggressive behaviors which I believe are actually unmet needs. Starting April 4, 2024 we begin construction on a fenced in yard so we can provide day training/daycare while you are at work and boarding!
About: I've owned dogs all of my life and can provide excellent care of your dogs. They will get plenty of love and play time as well. I currently work from home and will be able to give your dogs plenty of attention. They will fit right in with us in our home. My dog is allowed to go outside on the leash because he is old and does not go very far anymore, but I can keep your pets on a leash while in my care. I can also crate your dog.
About: Hi! I have had pets throughout my life. I am a dependable, caring animal lover who treats every pet like my own. I understand that pets are family, and I will provide a safe and loving environment for them while you’re away. I am attentive to routines, feeding instructions, and any special needs your pet may have. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, I will make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for at all times. As an online graduate student I am home most of the day. My schedule is flexible which allows me to plan my day around pet care needs. Regular potty breaks, daily walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. My apartment complex also has a dog park, which I can use for supervised play and exercise when appropriate.
“Loree and Jeff were great with my German Shepard! I cannot say enough good things about this couple. My boy received plenty of exercise (playing ball and walking) which he needs every day. He came home tired every day which to me is a sign of an awesome day for my boy. He also received snuggles and love as well. Communication was excellent via text and several photos were provided every day. Five star rating--that's for sure.”
About: Hi! Meet us, Rebecca and Ethan 😁 We love pets! Ethan grew up with several dogs, ranging from puppies to older dogs. Our family loved an Aussie of our own for several years. Unfortunately she passed on a few years ago. We aren’t ready to have another dog yet, so we truly love taking care of our friends and family’s dogs! Rebecca is a stay at home mom with complete flexibility in her schedule. Ethan works from home and loves taking pups for walks and even on his daily runs if the dog is up for it! We live in a very safe neighborhood that is great for walking dogs! We have a fenced in back yard, and room in our home for your dog! We have a cat who honestly stays clear of dogs when we have them staying with us. We have three kids who love having dog friends come to our house!
About: I’ve always been exceptionally empathetic towards animals, and I’d like your pets to feel as if they’re on vacation when they’re with me. When I first started rover, an owner saw how well I cared for their dogs, and they became like my second family during college. I still visit after moving away. My family dog is a husky, so I can take on big energetic dogs, and my first dog ever was a Yorkshire terrier with medical problems, so I know how to administer medication if needed (I have a background in the medical field as well). You can have a stress free day knowing your animals are safe and well cared for with me. I will be with your pet the entire stay, so you don’t ever have to worry about them being left alone for long periods of time. I live in a townhouse, so I have two levels, making it larger than your average apartment. I also have a back yard with a lead allowing your dog to run around without being hand held on a leash for every potty break. I also enjoy to walk the dogs around the complex, as they get “new information” and excitement from smelling new experiences around them.
“Courtney was wonderful with our Husky pup, Luna. We planned a last minute trip to Kanab and couldn’t take our pup on one of the adventures so I needed to find a sitter. This was my first time using Rover and it turned out great thanks to Courtney. She was very helpful and excellent at communicating. She showed up right on time and was very sweet with Luna. Luna showed no hesitation in going with her. Courtney sent photo and text updates throughout the day so we could see what Luna was up to and how she was doing. She also took Luna out for a hike, which Luna loves to do. Once we were done, she was waiting for us out front with all of Luna’s things, so it made an easy transition for us to pack up and go. I would definitely use Courtney again.”
“Ezgi is an amazing host! She sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout the day. She took all the dogs to the dog park, and they all got along very well. I highly recommend Ezgi. Thank you again”

“Super easy to work with and the dogs were excited each time he came over to walk them. By the end of the Walk they were always tired and ready to take a nap when they came back to the house. A great help for me when I was not able to do walking for a little while. Will definitely use him again”
About: I’ve always been a dog lover and give my sweet pup Attie all the love in the world. I grew up with dachshunds and currently have a 8–year-old mixed breed, who we adopted. My husband and I trained Attie with positive reinforcement to ensure her obedience without taking away from her fun-loving spirit. I love meeting and bonding with the dogs I sit, and I would love to open my home to your pets. My availability during the summer months is flexible. I am a full-time teacher, so during the school year, my availability is limited, but I am willing to work with clients to figure out the best plan that will work for you and your dog. Dogs must be crate-trained. I work full-time as a teacher, so Monday-Friday, pups need to be crated during the day for up to 8 hours while I’m at work. After work, I can provide walks and play. On the weekends, I’m open. I have a fenced yard and Attie, who loves meeting new dogs and making new friends. Dogs will need to be crated when no one is home and at night if not house trained.
“Beth was terrific! We needed someone to walk our 2 dogs for an hour each day for over a week. She was there every day, on time and with a cheery, friendly attitude. We appreciate her and will definitely hire her again - THANKS BETH!”
“Lori has been amazing with Mali! She gives her all of the love and attention we do and you can tell she truly cares about her and even my other animals she sees while she’s visiting Mali! We have all enjoyed her care and attention. Lori is amazing”
“Jo was amazing with our big guy Brutus! She fit us into her schedule quite last minute and was professional and prompt with updates, questions etc. Thanks Jo for your help, greatly appreciated 🐶 ❤️”
“Bradley was a true lifesaver, stepping in and walking my 84lb Goldendoodle 2x a day for 6 days. I broke my dominate arm and needless to say, quite helpless. Bradley is the consummate professional, always on time, documenting every walk with a photo and summary. Cookie always looked forward to his arrival and finally, at the age of 13, learned the meaning of a schedule! Dog owners couldn’t find anyone more trustworthy than Bradley.”
About: I’ve worked with rescue dogs for several years, which has given me experience with puppies, seniors, and nervous dogs with different needs and personalities. I’m comfortable with giving medications if needed and helping reinforce things like crate and potty training. My main focus is always patience and making sure each pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. I take the time to really learn each pet’s personality so I can meet them where they’re at and build trust at their pace. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for in my day-to-day life! I’m organized and make it a priority to give each pet the attention and care they need while maintaining a consistent schedule. Even with classes starting up in the fall, I’ll still have the flexibility to provide reliable care and keep up with each pet’s routine. When caring for pets, my priority is keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow all care instructions and make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, affection, and care. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free experience where pets can feel relaxed, happy, and well cared for in the comfort of their familiar surroundings.
“Valerie is awesome with my pup. Reliable, kind, trustworthy. I know whenever I book Valerie my pup is well taken care of. I am picky about who I choose to watch my pup and Valerie is always my first pick. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you Liesa! Liesa was professional, timely, such a good communicator, and loved on our pups. We are so grateful for her quick responses and thorough follow ups at such short notice!”
About: I have a special dog who has experienced intense anxiety. It has taught me patience and sympathy and has changed my life in very unique ways. I have grown to understand animals in a much more compassionate way. I work full time but I am in a less demanding season of the year and would love to help. I would love to use that time to assist others the same way Rover has assisted me. I am considerate of their personal boundaries and show as much love as I can to keep them comfortable in every way. The goal is to build trust
“She was excellent. Showed up on time, gave our dogs extra special treatment and gave them four days of great interaction while we were traveling from out of town. Can not recommend her enough.”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I currently have two dachshunds and am also the designated sitter for three cats who belong to my brothers, so I have a love for both! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and love surrounding myself with them. I’ve had lots of experience sitting for pets, ranging from German shepherds to kittens. I have lots of experience working with puppies and senior dogs. I am currently at home full time for the rest of the summer before I start my first year at law school this fall! I wanted to have a relaxing and fun next couple of months before starting possibly the hardest journey of my life, and I thought no better way to do that then spend time with animals. I’m always out walking, especially during the summer and would love to have a cute furry friend to accompany me! Since I am home full time, I am very flexible and have the ability to provide lots of love and care toward your pets. I’ve just recently finished up my internship, so I am available most weekdays. Mornings and early afternoons work best for me, but I am flexible! I always make sure my pets feel loved and cared for. My parents travel a lot and rely on me to be with the dogs 24/7 which I gladly do. I make sure to take them on walks (long enough that their little legs can handle). I’ve realized that a lot more dogs than expected have separation anxiety, so I always try to be as present as possible for them! The same applies for cats. I understand cats can vary when it comes to personality and temperament, and that has helped me understand the best approaches for them and how to interact in a way that is respectful to them.
About: I love animals and have cared for them for about 20 years as a pet owner. Professionally, I have cared for other peoples’ animals for 3 years now and pride myself on meeting and exceeding customer expectations. I am a professional ballet dancer so my schedule varies day-to-day but I always make the animals under my care a priority no matter my schedule. For best care, I only watch crate-trained dogs in my home. I have a large yard as well as a small fenced area. Cats are safely kept indoors at all times.
About: I have a Jack Russell Terrier named Snoopy who loves long walks in the park and plenty of attention. I also have experience caring for Siberian Husky and a Shiba mix. Also taken care of gerbils, hamsters, turtles, and parakeets. I'm currently available with a flexible schedule. I enjoy taking care of dogs on long walks and playing fetch with them outside in the yard i have experienced dealing with a variety of dogs and pets. I have ample amount of experience giving dogs medicine that prescribed to them and feeding and giving plenty of water
About: Hi there! My name is Alyssa. I absolutely love animals and I would be so excited to help you care for your fur babies. I have always had a soft spot for animals. My husband and I have rescued five cats that were in need of a loving home. My passion is to take care of any animal I can help. Frequently, I will find stray animals and make sure to have shelter, food, and water available for them and try to care for them as my own. Throughout my life, I have always lived in a household with cats and dogs. I can’t wait to meet your furry loved ones!🐾 I am available to check in on your pets anytime during the week and the weekends. Just let me know how often you would need me to stop by. I will always make sure to be respectful of a clients home and treat their animals the way I would want mine treated. I will always stay kind and caring toward your animals. I will always respect house rules and make sure I have taken care of the pets to the best of my ability.
About: I've had dogs ever since I was 10, but my experience with them goes far beyond that. When I was a little kid, before I ever had a dog, I would go to this read with a dog program called "Paws to Read." I would spend countless hours reading to the dogs and befriending them, along with a cat or two here and there. When I was 10, I got my first dog, a husky, and gave him a wonderful life. He had quite a few medical issues and behaved older for his age because of it, so I know how to provide senior pet care. He has since passed, but my two current dogs, one pitbull and one pitsky, remind me every day how important pets are to me. I've had them both for eight years now, during which we've taken numerous car rides, walks, enjoyed outside and inside playtime, movie nights, and anything a dog could dream of. Now, while I've never had a cat because of the majority of my family being allergic, I never turn away from a cat. I'm a regular at the Gem City Catfe, where I play with the cats often and have gone so often that they are comfortable with me. I keep cat and dog treats on me in case I come across a stray, because all cats and dogs deserve to feel some love. I've also dog-sat and house-sat for a few friends before, so I know how to handle situations like pets not getting along, bathroom accidents, and being a bit of a picky eater. Currently, I am a full time student and work full time at UDRI (UD's Research Institute) from 8:30am - 3:30am. During the summer I won't be taking any in person classes, just two online. But when I return to UD for my final year, I will be taking classes again and may be slightly more limited. When it comes to my pets and caring for clients pets, the comfort of the pet is most important to me. Personally, my two dogs don't get along with each other very well, so they typically have to be separated. Even so, I always make sure to treat them both equally and give them lots of love! If I take one for a car ride and ice cream, I bring ice cream back for the other and take the other for a car ride later that week. If my client has dogs similar to mine, who need to be separated, I would be sure to treat them equally and split my time with them according to my client's requests. Given single-pet households, I'd spend a lot of my time with them! In my downtime, I'd make sure to sit with them while I work on coursework. I'd be sure to take them on walks and go for potty breaks. And of course I'd make sure we get a lot of play time in and lots of love!
“Isabel did an awesome job communicating her time spent with Gemma! I loved seeing where they walked and getting a report on how Gemma did:) loved getting pictures throughout the day:). We will definitely ask Isabel to care for Gemma again!”

“Tara far exceeded our expectations in caring for our 13 year old Goldendoodle. Tara provided incredible care and it’s clear her family is deeply committed to the pets for which they care. We will definitely bring Baylee back, because she already misses them! thank you to Tara and her family!”
“Rachel and her family treated my dog very well! Look forward to hiring again. I appreciate how she stepped up in a pinch after my reserved sitter wasn’t able to watch two days before Christmas/same day I was flying out.”
“Derik and Megan are wonderful. They took on a challenge or what I would call a challenge by caring for my little boogie baby. They treated him so well as if he was their own. They kept me updated with pictures and text. I wouldn't ask for a better dog sitter. They made us feel at ease with our baby knowing it was our first time ever boarding him. Thank you again!”
“Kyri has been great each time 😊 She is always so nice and patient. Emir loves her and enjoys his time at her house. I appreciate the fact that she communicates daily and sends pics and videos to update me on how he's doing. Also, Emir gets to socialize with other dogs in a safe environment.”
“Ryan is great! He has watched Niko, our GS mix a few times now. This last time we were gone for over a week, when we picked up Niko he was freshly bathed and tuckered out from his 3mile walk. We hope to use Ryan again!!!”
“Ashleigh & Bill took superior care of our golden retrievers! Absolutely top-notch! From the initial meeting with their dog Tucker, to the pictures & text updates, to wrapping up the visit; Ashleigh and Bill showed kindness & care. They truly opened thier home to our pups and they treated them like family. We highly recommend their care & services.”
“Pietro was absolutely amazing!! Maple is nervous around men but she was so comfortable with him. He sent plenty of pictures and videos and even kept her a few hours longer to help me out since I broke my leg. Would definitely recommend!!”
“Treven loved having other dogs to play with and Vanessa provided extra reassurance that things were going well throughout his stay. I hope he is able to stay with her and her family again.”
“Lashonna is fantastic. A great meet-and-greet, very accommodating on pick up and drop off, great communication, and most importantly our dog seems very happy with the stay.”
“Catherine was very accommodating and responsive. Appreciate all her photos and text updates. Adam was a pleasure to deal with, too. Hoping to interact with them more often!”
“Nate and Whitney did an amazing job watching Mac! They sent many updates and pictures of how Mac was doing while he stayed with them. When I picked him up the next day he was exhausted so it is safe to say he had a blast staying with them. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
About: I've cared for and trained dogs since I was 5 years old, from dogs small enough to fit in your purse to Great Danes! Feeding, bathing, walking, clipping nails, brushing, the whole nine yards. I work in the gig economy, so my schedule is mine to fit and mold to my whim with the exception of friend and family needs. If your pet is in my care, you can rest assured that they will be my top priority. I live in an inclusive community village with a friendly senior dog (and two cats from my roommate). There's many walkways to explore with zero risk of the road. If you want me to care for your pet in your home, I can entrust the care of my dog to my roommate and dedicate a majority of my time to watching over your lovely animal.
“This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience! Courtney and Jordan took great care of my dog and I was able to enjoy my trip away without worry.”
“I don’t have words… was so great! My girls were sooo happy. Katherine is now at top of my sitters list. I just moved and can’t tip right now but, I will reward with Hispanic delicacies ??”
“Gregory was a great sitter and helped our dog Doodle feel right at home. He also sent videos and pictures that helped us see how great of a time Doodle was having. We would definitely use Gregory again!”
