“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“Finny is nice and tired coming home from Holly’s house - I am sure from playing with Millie nonstop. ☺️ love getting the pics of them. Thanks for watching him again, Holly!”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Gabrielle was a great pet sitter for our dog! She was very communicative and easy to work with. She sent us pictures and let us know everything was going great! Would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Madison was the best when sitting our dog Luna! She was able to take her on very short notice which we greatly appreciated. Madison was super responsive and treated Luna so well. She gave Luna all the cuddles and gave us plenty of fun and cute photo updates. We travel a lot so Luna will definitely stay with Madison again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. I have firsthand experience raising puppies, including my own golden retriever and various other breeds while growing up in my family. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed, and play with their pets. I am patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will rarely be alone. My flexible schedule allows for frequent potty breaks, midday walks, and plenty of cuddle time throughout the day. I’m available for boarding and daycare every day of the week. I live in a comfortable townhome with a partially fenced backyard and spacious front yard. Safety is my top priority, I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood and I am very attentive to your dog’s body language and comfort levels on walks. I am very happy to take your dog on regular walks, and live in a neighborhood where there is a big park nearby. I treat your pets as if they were my own and ensure they feel safe, secure, and right at home.
“Jenny was absolutely wonderful! Our first time using rover and she made us feel so confident that Stella was in great hands during our time away. She sent regular updates and photos every day, it was clear Stella trusted her very much!”
“This was the first time we used Rover and we were so pleased to find Karen. She was a great communicator and made leaving our dog easy! I highly recommend her.”
“They were amazing! My pups did not go without love. They sent pictures to update us on eating habits, play time and behaviors. I appreciated the updates and loved the fact they were dog lovers. When I dropped off the pups, they made sure they would do well in a new environment before leaving. When we returned from out of town, they were understanding of our late arrival and had the pups fed before we came. Overall, I would choose them again.”
“Josephine took echo and Forest very last minute and I couldn’t be more thankful. So professional, great with my dogs, and kept them busy. She even handled my grumpy, attitude ridden echo with such grace. My boys will definitely be coming back if she will have them :)”

“Elisheba was wonderful with my dog. She gave me daily updates on how she was doing and sent me fun pictures of the adventures they had while I was gone. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your pet as she has a true love for animals and she will welcome them into her home and take care of them as if it was her own pet.”
“Dana was so good with my little dog. My dog is 10yrs old and very shy and timid. Dana took her out for a walk every couple of hours for a walk or let her out in yard. She didn't have any peeing accidents. She was so good to her. Dana also updated me everyday and sent me pictures of my dog during her stay. Sugar my dog was comfortable. I knew Sugar wouldn't eat much while I was gone that's the way she is. I came home a day early yet I let Dana keep the whole amount as tip. I would definitely use Dana again.”

About: What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies and young dogs who need extra patience and consistency to senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, extra bathroom breaks, or additional attention. I’m also happy working with shy, anxious, or nervous pets and always let them warm up to me at their own pace. I believe the little things make a big difference—keeping pets on their normal routine, providing plenty of play and affection, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Most importantly, I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal. I take that responsibility seriously and strive to give every pet the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m dependable, flexible, and able to provide consistent walks, playtime, attention, and loving care throughout the day. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s routine. I give plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection, while respecting their individual needs.
About: With 5 years of regular pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages - from bouncy puppies and playful kittens to my true area of expertise: senior pets. I understand the unique needs that come with each life stage, from puppy energy and socialization to the extra patience, gentle handling, and attentiveness that senior pets often require (think mobility issues, medication schedules, and just plain more TLC). Every pet in my care gets individualized attention tailored to their age, temperament, and routine. Whether it’s a high-energy young dog needing exercise and mental stimulation, or an older cat who just wants a quiet lap and consistent care, I adjust my approach to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work from home so my schedule allows flexibility for lots of walks and potty breaks. My personal daily routine included exercise and regular walks, I’d love to include your pet! My home is one level and my yard is fenced in allowing for convenience to get outside easily and stay safe. Pets are welcome to roam free in my home, but happy to work with any crates or other training needs to stay on track.

About: I've been lucky to be raised in a dog household and have always been surrounded by dogs- both big and small! I truly treat every dog as my own and give them the love and care they deserve. I have experience with large breeds (I had a great Dane growing up!), puppies and senior dogs. I work fully remote so I'll be at home most of the day to care for and play with throughout the day. I'm available most weekends when I'm not traveling a few times throughout the year. I have an elderly dog, Titus, who has lived with other dogs most of his life and gets along well with all animals (except those pesky squirrels!). I have a fenced in yard where, weather-depending, I leave the door open to allow them to go in & out as they please. I like to take my dog on walks around the neighborhood almost daily and we'd love to have a friend join us!

About: Hi there, thank you for taking the time to consider me! I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals. Friends and family have relied on me to care for their precious babies since I was 12 years old. Growing up, my family always had animals. I have experience caring for dogs aged puppy through senior, giving meds, bottles feeding, and even diaper changes if needed! I have a very flexible job allowing me to work from a laptop M-F so I can be very portable. This allows me to keep up with play time, regular potty breaks, feeding schedules and even walks of course! Thank you for taking the time to consider me and I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! I work from home M-F and my job is very flexible! I regularly have downtime with an occasional phone call! This allows me to be 100% present with your pet. I have flexibility to provide whatever is needed in your home or mine. Pups will get regular walks, potty breaks, scheduled meals and of course naps all day long!
About: I’ve taken care of different breeds of dogs, As well as domestic kinds of animals. When working with different animals I make sure I know everything I can about their routine, training, schedules so that they are returned back to owner, the owner is very satisfied with my service with their pets. I connect very well with the animals so that they are very comfortable with me and so that owner feels confortabke entrusting me with their pets. With puppies i make sure to ask all necessary questions with potty training making sure they are taken out often, to any current training being worked on with owner at home. With senior dogs making sure any routine they are on with eating walking or any possible medications are kept on track. Please let me know if their are any questions. Currently I am a stay at home Mom. Any routine any owner needs me to stick with it will be worked with and stay on track with training. I can take 1-2 dogs at a time. I like to do meet and greets so that new pets and their owners can get to know me and feel comfortable with their pets being in my care. Would need to be potty trained and neutered/spade. I love animals that are cuddle bugs! I do not have a fenced in yard but my house large enough for play and can go on walks nearby by park by house. I make sure a gate is up in my house so I can keep an eye on all pets being watched.
“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”
About: I grew up with dogs as small as Chihuahuas and as large as Great Danes so I’m happy to accommodate dogs of any size and breed. I’ve had the opportunity to foster over a dozen strays with less than desirable beginnings, but I believe all pets can reach their full potential with love and attention. I love being outside so I’m down to take your dog for long walks if he or she is up for it. I have a flexible schedule so happy to work around you and your pets needs. I currently work from home and love breaking up my routine with caring for animals. Your pet would be a welcome addition to my day! Trust between a pet owner and sitter is essential so I’m always happy to do a meet & greet or test run before committing to any service.
“Akita is professional, very responsive and amazing! My fur baby felt at home immediately. He even ate his food which he never does when he’s away from home. She was so accommodating and did such a wonderful job taking him on plenty of walks and potty breaks! He was so excited for day 2 daycare. I’m so happy I found a forever sitter for my baby! Thank you Akita!”
“Leeann was amazing with a last minute booking and being so flexible on drop off and pick up times. Thank you for finding a calm room for her to stay where she was comfortable too!”
“Jessica was a great help at short notice to watch our pup Ollie for a doggy day care visit. Communication was easy and her response to my initial inquiry was super quick. Drop off and pick up was also easy, and Ollie came back happy and healthy! Thanks, Jessica!”
“Karen is awesome, our dog Charlie loves going to see her when we go on our trips. Karen is so flexible and easy-going. I really appreciate it with our busy schedules. Karen is our number one pick when it comes to dog boarding.💛”
About: When Covid started, I accidentally started my business by helping a couple people who adopted dogs outside of their care knowledge. Helping them with their working class dogs (pitbull, collie, and a GSP) and establish a better owner/pet relationship made me realize that this is the right move for my future. Since then I have started my own business as well as helping others with their new family member(s). No creature is too small or large for me. My smallest dog client is 3 pounds and the largest is 215. Aside from that I have expanded my practices with lizards, snakes, cats, and birds. Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime! I am home most of the day. I do part-time work in hospice as well as part-time classes; (I have a door bachelors degree already working towards a BSN). If you have a special needs animal, I am more than happy to comply with their schedule, I just need to know in advance as much as possible. I have a fenced in yard in the back (will have a fully fenced in yard by the end of August in the front). My dogs have a semi strict schedule of activities to keep them mentally/physically stimulated. I follow suit with everybody’s dog. Everybody eats in their own crate, is provided with soft bedding to sleep on in their own crate, but exercise thoroughly throughout the day.

“Alison has been very reliable and responsive. She’s been walking our new puppy for the last couple weeks to help us get her out of the crate during our work day so she isn’t in there more than 4hrs. Puppy dealing with some pretty bad stomach issues and Alison very helpful with this as far as checking in with worried pup mom and offering more water/different options when pup not up for a walk. She’s been wonderful and we’re very grateful. Will continue to use her services as long as we can and are in a situation where work schedule forces pup into crate for too many hours.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs for my entire life! I’m apart of several animal rescue organizations, so I’ve received special training on topics such as trauma-informed sheltering. I’m currently working full-time with a VERY flexible schedule. I work from home (downtown) for most of the week, and live close to the office. Your furry friends will receive a lot of attention from me while you’re away! I’m able to be in the home with your animal(s) for the majority of the time you’re away. I give them extra space for the first little bit, so they can get to know and trust me. Their happiness and comfort is extremely important to me!
“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!”
About: Dogs have been in my household from a young age; I am very comfortable with all breeds. Currently, my parents have a 6 year-old golden retriever that I helped raise when he was a puppy. I am an active person and an avid runner, and am prepared to walk or run any distance with your pets. I have experience caring for others’ pets, including overnight stays. In terms of other experience, I am a fourth-year medical student at the University of Cincinnati preparing for a career in emergency medicine. I will make it my goal to ensure the well-being of your pet. I am currently enrolled in elective rotations as a fourth-year medical student at the University of Cincinnati. These require presence in the hospital most days of the week, though my weekends are free for dog walking, as are the evening hours. I will not be on any rotations in the first two weeks of October, and also during November, December, and January. I am a long-time lover of animals and am very sensitive to the needs of the pets in my care. I will make sure they are supported while their owners are away. I have experience with overnight stays and can be counted upon to look after your home in addition to your pet. I am comfortable around all breeds, including large dogs.
“Tess is the absolute best! She has been helping me out with my pup for weeks. She is very reliable, great with communication and my dog loves her. I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 14 years of experience caring for dogs of various ages. I have a 5-year-old Australian Shepherd back home, who I personally helped train, and I previously cared for my family’s 14-year-old senior dog in her final days, so I understand the unique needs of both energetic and aging dogs. Spending time with them is incredibly therapeutic for me. I can’t wait to connect with your pup and provide the same love and care I give my own! Whether it’s walks, playtime, or special attention, I’m here to make sure they feel their happiest self! I really miss my dog back at home after moving here so looking to care for dogs occasionally when I have some free time on the weekends :) I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pup. I too, consider my dog my family and I can promise to care for yours in the same way, following any specific instructions you have for me.
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and other small animals. I used to pet-sit and house-sit in high school/college, and now I work from home full-time, so I have some flexibility to offer whatever services you may need! I have a 4-year-old Cavapoo named Ringo who I trained/potty-trained on my own. He's a super chill dog who gets along well with other dogs. I work from home full-time (9am-5pm), so I can stay at your home to house-sit/pet-sit if you prefer, or I can do drop-ins at any point during the morning/day/night. I live in an apartment, so I can't keep your pets at my home. But I have a car, so I can take them to the dog park or on walks—whatever you prefer!
About: Se habla español. 中文为母语 I grew up in a rural area with farm animals as my best friends. I have taken care of all kinds of pets over the years –– whether they were senior dogs, ill cats, or energetic puppies... I always put my best effort to make them content with my company. I have read books on taking care of pets, and being a veterinarian is my life goal! I work from home Monday and Friday, and I am mostly home over the weekend. I will dedicate all my attention to your furry kids when we are spending time together :) I live in a studio apartment downtown. Your furry friend will have access to every corner of my apartment. And I will be sure to take a walk around the parks with your pets, or anywhere you find fit.
“Levi has been wonderful with my special needs dog Lola and her brother Midnight. He is on time and follows instructions. He is very loving and gentle with my babies. I would definitely utilize his services!!”
About: Pets have been in my life since I was a little kid. My family has always had a dog and I have a cat that I take care of like she’s my baby! I’ve always loved animals and being around fur babies. To me pets aren’t just animals you have they are an extension of your family! I work a part time job at the kenwood mall during the summer/seasonally and am a student at UC studying education in hopes of becoming a teacher! My availability is pretty flexible during the week Monday, Wednesday, Friday I only have one class from 11-12:10 so I will be readily available for virtually the entire day. Availability for Tuesday/ Thursday varies because my classes range from 11-2 which isn’t ideal for potty breaks or feedings but am able to negotiate if you have a specific situation that would fit my schedule on those two day. During the weekend im free whenever and can do mornings, overnight care, potty breaks, special feeding care, etc. While at home I let our dog out, give treats, feed, and clean the cat's littler box, feed the cat, replenish the water supply in their fountain, etc. I have a senior dog so playing isn’t in her cards anymore but I’m happy to sit with senior dogs and play with younger dogs. I also love walks and will take your pups for as long of a walk as you’d like. I even walk my cat in a pet stroller when the weather is nice!
“Megan was great checking in on my cats and walking my dog. She is attentive, quick to respond and flexible. We will definitely be using Megan again for future services.”
“Bethany has been so helpful in caring for our dog. She treats her well and clearly has a love for animals. She's responsive and kind and we plan to continue using her on a weekly basis for as long as she's offering her services.”
About: We had three dogs growing up. I’ve had three of my own as well. I am currently the go to sitter for my best friend’s dog. I’ve cared for dogs in extreme health situations/have seen just about everything. I’m great with dogs/love spending time with them. I also work remotely and am available to come and pet sit. I am open to potentially boarding, but I would have to talk to my landlords first. I work from home, with two thirty minute breaks. I do not start until 10:30 and can do morning walks or feeding. I’m off at 6:30 and can do evening walks or feeding as well. I’ve had a full range of experience caring for my dogs over the years. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding and basic grooming. I also have experience with a wide variety of medications and have no problem giving supplements or medication at your direction. Since I work remotely, as long as there is some desk space to set up and Internet service, I can stay over any day of the week if needed. I consider myself a good communicator and am happy to send updates or answer any questions you may have.
“Corey is an excellent dog walker. My dog really enjoys being with him. He's assertive while also being gentle with my dog, which means he follows dog care instructions. He gives great updates about the walk. I'd strongly recommend Corey to my friends.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and cat owner, I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I currently care for two cats of my own and have experience pet sitting for friends, neighbors, roommates, and family members. I've cared for pets ranging from playful kittens and puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I'm committed to following your pet's routine as closely as possible, whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or simply providing companionship while you're away. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. You'll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to give both you and your pet a stress-free experience from start to finish. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I have two cats of my own, so I'm used to maintaining consistent feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and spending quality time playing and providing affection. I've also cared for friends', neighbors', and roommates' pets over the years, so incorporating walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care into my schedule feels very natural. I work well with routines and understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. As a cat mom myself, I know how stressful it can be to trust another person with the wellbeing of your pets and take the responsibility very seriously. I carefully follow each owner's instructions for feeding, medications (if needed), exercise, playtime, and any special routines that help their pet feel comfortable. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, clean living spaces, and plenty of attention and enrichment while their owners are away. I also know how important communication is, so I provide regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind. My goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and safe while maintaining as much of their normal routine as possible.

“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“Finny is nice and tired coming home from Holly’s house - I am sure from playing with Millie nonstop. ☺️ love getting the pics of them. Thanks for watching him again, Holly!”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Gabrielle was a great pet sitter for our dog! She was very communicative and easy to work with. She sent us pictures and let us know everything was going great! Would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Madison was the best when sitting our dog Luna! She was able to take her on very short notice which we greatly appreciated. Madison was super responsive and treated Luna so well. She gave Luna all the cuddles and gave us plenty of fun and cute photo updates. We travel a lot so Luna will definitely stay with Madison again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. I have firsthand experience raising puppies, including my own golden retriever and various other breeds while growing up in my family. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed, and play with their pets. I am patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will rarely be alone. My flexible schedule allows for frequent potty breaks, midday walks, and plenty of cuddle time throughout the day. I’m available for boarding and daycare every day of the week. I live in a comfortable townhome with a partially fenced backyard and spacious front yard. Safety is my top priority, I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood and I am very attentive to your dog’s body language and comfort levels on walks. I am very happy to take your dog on regular walks, and live in a neighborhood where there is a big park nearby. I treat your pets as if they were my own and ensure they feel safe, secure, and right at home.
“This was the first time we used Rover and we were so pleased to find Karen. She was a great communicator and made leaving our dog easy! I highly recommend her.”
“They were amazing! My pups did not go without love. They sent pictures to update us on eating habits, play time and behaviors. I appreciated the updates and loved the fact they were dog lovers. When I dropped off the pups, they made sure they would do well in a new environment before leaving. When we returned from out of town, they were understanding of our late arrival and had the pups fed before we came. Overall, I would choose them again.”
“Josephine took echo and Forest very last minute and I couldn’t be more thankful. So professional, great with my dogs, and kept them busy. She even handled my grumpy, attitude ridden echo with such grace. My boys will definitely be coming back if she will have them :)”
“Cori takes such great care of Mabel as always! They wear her out with lots of playtime with other pups. She sleeps for a couple days straight after staying with Cori and her family after a long weekend”
“Jill did an amazing job with my dog. She kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures. She took him on walks and kept him safe, and happy. I will definitely use her again.”
“Rachel did a great job with my dog. She gave regular updates and made sure to keep him nice and cool in the sweltering summer heat. I know he had a great time because he came home exhausted!”
About: Growing up we always had dogs in our home. I have experience caring for both small, large, and giant breeds. I have a giant breed puppy of my own, which I adore. I walk my own dog and my parent's dogs everyday. I make sure they get their energy out. A tired dog is a happy dog! Currently, my lunch time schedule for visits is full. I am mainly available in the early morning or evenings during the week. During the weekend, I can take care of your dog at any time. If boarding or doggy daycare, I have a fenced in yard at my house your pet could play in. I have toys for fetch and other activities for mental stimulation. I am also used to walking multiple dogs at once, if you have several pets that need exercised! I always have water available for dogs during play time and after walks. I'm available almost every weekend. During the week I currently only have flexibility at in the early morning or in the evening time. However, my husband works from home and we can always try to tag-team to meet your schedule's needs. I have always loved animals! Growing up we had many different kinds. I have been on Rover for a few years (taking some time off for school) but I have enjoyed getting to meet and take care of other's pets. I want to provide a safe and fun experience for each pet.
“Highly recommend! My dog stayed here for a multiple day booking and had an amazing time. The sitter was fantastic and which allowed my dog to socialize and spend time around a friendly large breed dog, which was a wonderful bonus experience. It was great to see my dog so comfortable, well-cared for, and happily socializing. I will definitely use this sitter again in the future!”
“Katie was a perfect sitter for Nash! She gave him the attention and love he wanted, a great house to feel comfortable in and he almost didn’t want to leave!”
“Abbie was wonderful with our dog Binx, as always! She was incredibly accommodating for pick up/ drop off and communicated promptly to make things efficient for everyone. Binx was right at home with Abbie’s family over the holidays - we got great photos and videos of him playing and they went the extra mile to make sure he got settled in comfortably. I’m so thankful he has a home away from home when we’re out of town!”
“As always we were so happy with Patricia taking care of our dog. She takes such good care of him and is so great and affectionate to him. We absolutely adore Patricia and hope to always be fortunate enough to rebook with her. It means the world to know he’s taken care of and be worry free on vacation. She always sends updates and photos daily which are greatly appreciated. Best sitter in the world!”
