“Tasha and Joseph are amazing dog sitters and I could not recommend them higher. They watch my dog Tesla while I was away on a trip I was unavoidable. They were so accommodating and were even willing to give him his medicine in our absence. They sent us pictures every day and it was clear that he was thoroughly played with. I cannot say enough good things.”
“This was the first time leaving my dog with someone who wasn't family while I was out of town. I found Rover while searching for dog boarding places around Cincinnati and decided to give it a try. I am so impressed with the service itself, and even more so with Christy. She and her dog were friendly and welcoming when we arrived for our meet and greet, and I immediately felt great about leaving my dog in her care. She sent me pictures of my dog almost every day that I was gone. My dog came home happy and exhausted! I would absolutely use Christy again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Amanda and Mike were wonderful with Luna! She was very well cared for, and they kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. Their backyard is spacious and perfect for dogs to run and play. It’s clear they have plenty of experience with dogs and know how to help them feel comfortable and adjust to a new environment. Luna came home happy and relaxed. We would definitely trust Amanda and Mike with her again and highly recommend them to other pet owners.”
“Jenny and her family and dog were wonderful hosts for our dog Gretel. Gretel got walks and affection and seemed very comfortable there. A very responsible and caring host. We will be happy to have Gretel stay with them again.”
“Kelti & Tanner are awesome! They are committed to accommodating you and your pet in all ways possible (incl. waking up to feed your dog at 5:30 AM/6 AM on weekends) If you're like me, then you are anxious whenever you have to leave your pet. While my big boy (Koda, a 78-pound yellow/white labrador retriever) stayed with with Kelti & Tanner, I knew I had nothing to worry about. That peace of mind is priceless.”
“Susie was wonderful! She took great care of Maggie, made sure she got plenty of walks, and kept us updated throughout her stay with lots of pictures. It was so nice knowing Maggie was happy and well cared for while we were away. Susie was also incredibly friendly, responsive, and loved our dog. We would absolutely recommend her and would happily have her watch Maggie again!”
“I would definitely board with Katie again. Our dog Trina jumped out of the car on her own (a first for her) when we got there after the meet and greet. She seemed like she had a very good time staying with Katie and other pooches when we picked her up.”
“Rebecca took great care of Dexter and sent frequent pictures. Overall great experience and our family was pleased knowing our pup was in a great household. Would definitely recommend and rebook in the future. Thanks Rebecca!”
“Leann is my go to sitter for my pup for almost about a year now and she’s been heaven sent to my family and I. She’s been so reliable whenever we need her, she answers the call. By far the best sitter I’ve ever had. She’s a great communicator, and expert of my dogs temperaments that really gives me a peace of mind when I’m away. I always know my pup is in good hands with Leann!”
“Jaci was absolutely wonderful with Zeke! He was so comfortable staying with her that he almost didn’t want to leave. I would definitely recommend and rebook with Jaci!”
“Oscar enjoyed his stay and came home perfectly relaxed from a stress free time away from home. We were very pleased with the care he received from this family!”
“John took great care of our dog, and was excellent to work with. Prompt communication, and he was very accommodating and supportive with an injury our dog has. Highly recommend.”
“Fantastic, trustworthy pet sitter. I was nervous to leave my fur baby and Jane did a wonderful job making me feel comfortable and keeping me updated while I was away.”
“Melissa was very accommodating and helpful. She accepted and helped carry in his crate which is the safest place for him if they leave the house. She said that would only be for a short time and maybe not at all. She sent several pics of our dog playing outside , interacting inside or making himself at home on a bed. He was safe and returned home tired from all of his play/running around. I was very grateful for Melissa’s care.”
“Mike and Annie took great care of my baby. It was her first stay and I was naturally a bit nervous. They were amazing and sent me pictures along the way. They even cooked her chicken when she wouldn't eat. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her.🩷”

“Olivia was great with our kitty for two weeks while we were out of town. She sent pictures and kept us updated on any new behaviors or issues. We will definitely be asking her to care for our kitty in the future!”
“Taylor truly goes above & beyond to provide the best care for your pets! I had her watch my cat while I was away for Thanksgiving, and she communicated so well! I truly did not worry for a second that my pet was in good hands (and I usually worry myself sick when leaving him.) Do not hesitate if you’re looking for a trustworthy person to care for your pet!”
“Melissa was absolutely amazing. She was prompt, CLEARLY concerned that she had all the information she needed to take care of my cats, and flexible about some last minute complications with my plans. Melissa sent me awesome pictures and notes each day, and had my shy, timid boy eating up her affection. I would not hesitate to recommend her.”
“Hannah was amazing! She sent me great updates and pictures, and really made me feel reassured that my cat was doing well and getting lots of love. Would absolutely recommend!”
“As always, Crystal takes great care of my two sweet cats. She is fantastic at remembering their routines and likes/dislikes, and she’s willing to go above and beyond for me/them, which I appreciate so much. Thank you, Crystal!”
“We’ve booked Emily every time we’ve needed someone to watch our two cats and she’s the best! She goes above and beyond and we never worry when she’s taking care of Maddie and George!”

“Great experience with Marguerite as always ! She went above and beyond to take care of my cat, so i felt totally comfortable the whole time i was out of town! :)”
“Hayley was a phenomenal pet sitter. It was clear she spent plenty of time hanging out and playing with the cats and they bonded with her so easily. Would definitely book her in the future!”
“Kate did an amazing job with my two cats for my trip. She sent pictures, a video, and left a note every visit. My cat recently had surgery before my trip and she sent pictures of the incision everyday. She also worked with my shyer cat and made sure he ate. I definitely recommend her!”
“Our cat gets sad (manifests as grumpy) when we are out of town and she is particular about who cares for her. Katrina was wonderful at meeting Lillian on her terms. It was evident that Katrina really understands cat behavior by Lillian’s response to her. She played, accepted pets, and moved around the house freely - behaviors not common with previous cat sitters. We will definitely hire Katrina again!”
“Dana is very deserving of all the 5-star reviews on her profile. She took wonderful care of my cat while I was out of town, and allowed me to not worry about my fur baby while I was trying to enjoy time away! She is communicative, has a very calming presence, and provided lots of updates about how things were going. Thank you so much, Dana!”
“Angel was extremely responsive when setting up the meet and greet and took amazing care of Mr Cat! She sent daily photos and updates and he looked happy and cared for!”
“Emma was very flexible, helpful, and patient with me and my kitties--especially when my plans changed. The little ones took to her more quickly than they have with others in the past which is a tribute to Emma.”
“Morgan was awesome. She is very kind. She took photos. She was very easy to communicate with. She was on time. I would definitely recommend her and use her again. I have two one year old cats.”

“Used to be a Rover Sitter; now first-time Rover user...and Alison was great! She was very communicable and took good care of our very *particular* cat. Would recommend to anyone!”

About: I have cared for dogs my whole life. My first job was at a doggie daycare. I can bath, walk, or just snuggle your furbabies. I have a fenced in yard for potty breaks, and play time. I do have crates if needed however doggies are welcome to sleep and play anywhere in my home. I currently work from home. I can take breaks whenever needed. I can adjust my schedule to accommodate your dogs normal routine. Just let me know at booking. I typically get up at 5:30am, I walk or let doggies out back in fenced in yard for a potty break. I mostly work on my laptop in the main living space and get up every few hours to walk or toss the ball in the back yard. My flexibility with work allows me to provide special care if your furbaby needs it. Medicine, more frequent feedings, or potty breaks, exercise.
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: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’m patient, caring, and treat every pet like family. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule working a part time job that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting while making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I have experience caring for my fur babies and understand how important it is to provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I always prioritize each pet’s individual needs.
About: Hi my name is Patrice. I'm a veterinary technician who loves being with animals even outside of my normal work day. If I could I would adopt a million pets but unfortunately that's not an option. I take pride in being able to help care for pets outside of my own. There's nothing more fulfilling than being able to play with fur babies when the owners cannot do so because of work. I am able to provide exercise time, medication administration, ear cleaning, and basic grooming. If you are in need of any of the above services feel free to reach out to me. I would love to get to know you and your fur babies and develop a life long bond. Pet care fits into my daily routine perfectly. I'm always with pets even in my dreams. Rather I am walking pets or meeting up for grooming appointments, I'm always with pets. I get a background of the pets home life and mimic that while they are with me. Routine works best with most pets. When you switch up what they are used to they do not do well.
“Second visit with Lauren was awesome. She sends lots of pictures throughout the day which I love. Will definitely continue to have my puppy stay with her!”
“So great! My puppy Steve loves going to Kimberly's house he has lots of playtime with the other dogs that are there, Kimberly keeps in contact with me sending pictures of my pup playing, she takes them on walks! I couldn't be more happy with the doggie daycare, Steve is much more happy and stimulated and I'm relaxed knowing he's being well taken care of and getting the love and attention he needs”

“Kelsey was wonderful took great care of our Howlett! We’ve used her services several times and she does an outstanding job. We will always be customers of her and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Jillian has been walking my quirky and sometimes shy greyhound regularly for a couple months now and she is the absolute best. On time, thorough, understanding, flexible, competent, communicative, knowledgeable. I don’t trust my dog to everyone, but I feel 10000% confident that she’s in good hands with Jillian on their walks!”
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!
“Megan has taken good care of our older pup who has a lot of quirks and particular needs. She communicates well, shows up promptly, and has patience when walking with our 17 year old girl.”
“Susan has done a phenomenal job helping us take care of our new puppy! She is timely, professional, and truly cares about animals. She provides detailed daily updates and has been flexible with our needs. Plus, our dog loves his visits with her too! I highly recommend Susan if you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy caretaker.”
“Bethany did an amazing job with our dog Lily. She gave plenty of updates, pictures,and lots of care! She even went above and beyond and brought in some flowers for us and brought in our trash cans while we were away. We cannot thank you enough for your help this week! I would gladly trust Bethany again. 💖”
“Allison has been great! Super friendly and helpful when scheduling, and she has great availability. This is the second time she's taken our Aussie pup on a walk to help get some energy out. Love getting the pictures of her time with him and the note she leaves about their time together. Will definitely keep using Allison”
“I have three dogs with different needs because of age and temperament. I was most worried about my small, shy dog, but he took a treat from Karen on the first meeting!”
About: I’ve grown-up around animals my entire life; whether on the farm I grew up on, or taking care of former housemates pets; I’ve always had a strong connection to, and a deep love for animals. While I am currently unable to host/pet sit at my current residence, I am always available to come and do so at the home you and your pets share! My schedule currently has open availability; which means I can, most likely, accommodate your schedule needs; whether that means Days, Nights, Weekdays or Weekends- I’m ready and available! I love to go on long walks; either around the neighborhood or to the local dog park, but have no problem just kicking it at home spending the time giving them all the attention/affection they require. (And for those pets who prefer the single life, I’m also fine with serving as their human can opener while you are away)
About: Hi! My name is Claire, and I’m someone who has always had dogs growing up — they’ve been a huge part of my life. Now that I’m in school, I really miss having a dog of my own, but I know I don’t currently have the time to fully raise one. That’s actually what drew me to Rover: I get to spend time caring for and loving dogs while also helping owners in my community feel confident their pets are in good hands. I genuinely love dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I take caring for them seriously. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them attention and comfort, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and always focused on making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Being in school has taught me how to manage my time responsibly, and pet care is something I truly enjoy rather than see as a chore. I would love the opportunity to help care for your dog (or cat!) and give them the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine because I’m currently in school and have a flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting during weekdays and weekends, and I make sure pets receive consistent attention, playtime, and care throughout the day! I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I carefully follow feeding, medication, and routine instructions, keep environments clean and secure, and make sure each pet feels calm, loved, and well cared for.

“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!”
“Alexandru was phenomenal!! I scheduled him day of and then repeated for a week out. He was able to walk my pup with no issues (he’s a big 80lb dog with some reactivity). Will definitely be back to use him again!!”

I now have a new back up sitter for Max.”
“We needed a last minute dog sitter and used the rover app for the first time to find someone close by and I got so lucky to find Chrissy to help us out. The dogs loved the big backyard and played so well with their own dogs. I will definitely use her again. ❤️”
