It really gave me peace of mind as I was on vacation. I will be booking with them again soon …highly recommend Stacie and Doug.”

“Amazing dog sitter, would highly recommend. You can really tell that she and her husband care and love the dogs so much. So glad and reassured that Miso was in their hands for a week and had so much fun. Would book again for future trips!”
“AMAZING!!! First of all even before how amazing these two are - they are right he the airport. About them: I knew my pups were so happy the entire time they were there. I received so many great pictures and little stories about their day. These two were so enthusiastic about loving my dogs and letting me know. Sarah even works from home some days so you know your pups are happy 24/7. My dogs just got home and they are completely passed out so I know they were active and happy. I highly recommend Brendan and Sarah.”
“Jenna was so awesome!! Very communicative and responsive with scheduling, sent lots of pics and updates throughout each day, had a beautiful and safe home for my dog to play and relax. He even came home with a new toy!! Absolutely would recommend.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family, and I strive to provide the same level of care, attention, and patience that I would want for my own. My background in healthcare has taught me how to be responsible, detail-oriented, and attentive to the unique needs of every individual, skills that translate naturally to pet care. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior dogs who may require a gentler pace and extra attention. Whether it's daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, administering oral medications, reinforcing basic training, or simply providing companionship, I prioritize your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness. I am currently a Master's student in Medical Physiology at Case Western Reserve University, which has helped me develop strong time-management, responsibility, and organizational skills. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals as a balance to my studies. Despite a busy academic schedule, I am very intentional about managing my time and maintaining commitments. Whether it's morning walks, midday drop-in visits, evening care, or weekend sitting, I enjoy incorporating pet care into my routine because it allows me to spend time outdoors and connect with animals while helping pet owners have peace of mind. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every pet with patience, attentiveness, and compassion. As someone pursuing a career in healthcare, I value reliability, clear communication, and attention to detail, and I bring those same qualities to caring for your furry family members. I am committed to ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any specific preferences or needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and mental stimulation while also keeping their environment clean and safe. If providing care in my own home, I would ensure pets have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of supervision, exercise, fresh water, and opportunities for play and rest. My goal is always to make pets feel as relaxed and loved as possible, whether they are in their own home or mine.
“Winston had the best stay! This was my first time ever leaving him, and I was understandably nervous, but I felt completely at ease from the start. There was constant communication throughout his stay, with updates that made me feel confident he was in great hands. He was truly treated like part of their family, not just a dog they were watching. I’m so grateful for the care, attention, and love they showed Winston, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer went above and beyond when takinf care of Taro. She gave daily updates and photos at the best level I've ever seen on Rover. Taro my dog had a top-notch experience staying with her and her family.”
“Dolly had a great weekend with Devon and her dog Penny! Devon and Penny made Dolly feel right at home and took great care of her. We’d happily recommend Devon and will definitely be using her again.”
“Lynn is the best Rover we ever had. She plays games with her dogs and makes sure to find the best way to get our picky eater to eat. Our dog is very comfortable at her house because she is treated like Lynn's dogs and she fits in with her pack. We get daily updates with pictures and videos and we never have to worry about our dog while we are away.”
“Samantha was a kind and caring sitter! She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on how my puppy was doing. She also has 2 small and very well behaved pups and this was great for socialization. Very happy to leave my puppy with Samantha.”
“Kathy was wonderful! She sent daily pictures and updates for me. I could see my dog was spoiled with attention and care. She didn’t want to leave. I would highly recommend Kathy!”
“We’re really happy with Debra and how she handled everything for our dog while we were out of town. We arranged for a meetup before the stay to ensure this would be a good match. When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”
“Abby took extra care with Dallas and gave him lots of love and made sure he got to play in the splash pad during the extra hot days! Thank you Abby for making my pup feel like he got a vacation too!”
About: Ive been caring for dogs my whole life with my family animals and also pet sitting for friends. Im very comfortable with all breeds! Im your girl for long walks or extra snuggles. I recently moved to Ohio from Oregon and am looking to fill my free time meeting new furry friends and getting to know the area with long walks with your dogs or traveling to new neighborhoods to care for your pets.

“5 stars! We never worried about our boys because we knew they were in great hands. We appreciated the feedback and photos we received daily, and we would absolutely rebook when needed.”
“Tyler was fantastic and we wood definitely book with him again! We appreciated the chance to speak with him through a pre-visit and introduce him to our pets. He was very communicative with us, and took great care to spend quality time with our pets during each visit. His photos brought smiles to our faces and allowed us to relax, knowing that our pets were receiving excellent care.”
About: Kitties have been around me my whole life! As a kid, I grew up with multiple cats in the house and as an adult, I have two adorable buddies (named Alfredo and Ravioli)! I love cats and I don’t mind the un-fun realities of cat owning either (aka cleaning the litter box). Can’t wait to meet your feline friends!
“I recently had the pleasure of having Jackie take care of our cats while we were away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that Jackie is a true cat lover and professional.”

“This was our first time having Makenna do drop in visits for our 3 cats while we were on vacation and she was amazing! She was always on time, sent us photos and updates and was very responsive. Our cats are happy and well cared for ☺️ Thanks Makenna! We will definitely be contacting you for our future needs!”
“Veronica took wonderful care of my two cats, including one who needs daily oral meds, while I was away. She was communicative, professional, and reliable. Would recommend!”
“Erin was wonderful! We have a recently diagnosed diabetic cat and have been anxious about leaving the house. Erin came and met our cat ahead of time to learn his needs and was very thorough to make sure that she could take care of our sweet boy. We felt confident in her ability to administer an insulin injection to our cat, and our two other skittish cats even came out for her! She sent plenty of photos of the babies, was prompt with her arrival, and actively communicated with us leading up to and during her visit. We will absolutely book with Erin again and will recommend her to friends and family.”
About: We’re katie and ralph 👋 we love animals and would be honored to take care of your furry friend! Our families grew up with cats, but later in life we became a dog family! We love all animals and would be happy to take care of any family’s pet. When we had our own dog, we used Rover for overnights so we know how it feels to leave your pet with someone new. We have watched friends and family’s dogs for many years, big and small! Ralph recently decided to leave his job to explore a new career so we’re wide open for scheduling! Happy to accommodate any scheduling needs. 😀 We have a ton of experience with crate training and e-collar training if that’s needed. Happy to administer any medication and follow any special diet needs.
“When I say she goes above and beyond for your fur baby, I’m even underselling her. Arianna went above and beyond for my newly adopted 14 yr old cat, she did drop in visits for me over the weekend of July 4th. She was so attentive, so patient and so kind. She definitely helped Goldie feel so much better after a loud July 4th. Thank you Ariana!!!”
“Wow, I can't say enough great things about Jessica. Jessica absolutely saved the day while we were traveling abroad and had last-minute issues with another sitter. We were really worried about our pets and Jessica was able to check in immediately on our two cats to make sure everything was okay. Knowing she was there to take care of our two fur babies gave us great peace of mind while traveling and we'll definitely be reaching out again in the future for her help. :)”
“Shandra has been super attentive and communicative throughout the many scheduled visits I had her for the past two weeks. Highly recommend and will definitely use her again!!”
“Sarah treated my dad’s cat like a prince! She was so good and patient about giving Harpo space while he acclimated to the new surroundings. Harpo fell completely in love with Sarah and he is going to miss her so much! I will definitely book with her again.”
“Peyton was very sweet with my cat, Sugar. She followed my instructions for her care and made sure that Sugar was safe and sound before leaving. I would definitely trust Peyton to take care of Sugar again.”
“I have a senior kitty who is pretty finicky in his old age. This includes preferring to drink from the faucet vs. his dish. Amanda is wonderful with him and includes pictures of him in full faucet glory when she visits. Highly recommend her!”

About: I have a high-energy dog that has prepared me in all aspects of pet care! I am well-versed in on- and off-leash exercise and have plenty of ideas for indoor enrichment activities. Having raised my own dog from 6 weeks old, I’m familiar with all of the accidents that can happen when pets are home alone. I’ve also cared for elderly and medically-complex dogs. I work remotely during the school year and have summers off. My work is in pacific time, giving me plenty of time in the morning to take your pet on a walk, play outside, or just keep them company. Of course, when I’m off in the summer, I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets! I am open to the safety, trust, and environment guidelines set by each pet owner. As the owner of a needy dog, I understand that each family has different preferences for keeping their home and pets safe!

“Erica is so patient, easy to coordinate with, and goes above and beyond to make sure Lucky has a fun day! She takes photos to send which makes me feel reassured he had a good day with her! thanks for everything! I appreciate it and will reach back out soon!!”
“I am so happy that we found Katie to care for our two dogs, whether that’s a drop in visit or daycare. She has been willing to go the extra mile to work with us on using the ecollar for our dog, which is not something I would trust just anyone to do. I know my dogs had a blast being there for daycare, coming home happy & exhausted. She does a fantastic job caring for our crazy pups & communicating with us. I feel comfortable knowing she’s spending some time with them on my long work days. Highly recommend!!”

She also is very flexible in her schedule which is exactly what I was looking for. Excited to have Mary watch her again!”
“First experience on this app and it couldn’t have been better! What a great weight lifted knowing my sweet boy was in the best hands. Super attentive from the start and sent pics/updates throughout. Will most definitely be booking again!”
About: My husband and I own a very sweet, playful Great Dane/mastiff and a pure bred English Mastiff. We have experience with all kinds of dogs and other animals. We have a large finished upstairs where our dog loves to run and play. We have a large backyard that is fully fenced/gated. We walk daily (in nice weather). We have fun toys to play with and a whole room for your dog to sleep in (instead of a cage) but if your dog prefers a cage we have a huge one he can sleep in (or you can bring your own). I stay home so your pet will have plenty of company! We have three young girls who absolutely love playing with dogs. They are gentle and dogs always love them.
“Today was Oakley’s first time for daycare at Leslie’s and all the dogs hit it off! Leslie is friendly and communicative. Oakley is worn out and I’m happy he had a good day at Leslie’s home.”
About: I have been walking dogs and pet-sitting for over 10 years now. I started walking dogs around the neighborhood and quickly demonstrated my dependability to clients. Through client word-of-mouth and recommendations, I started pet-sitting overnight. My responsibilities ranged from simple daily walks while clients were traveling to weeklong stays at residences, caring for several pets, watering plants, and doing light housework. I work remotely which allows me to be with your pet all day while sitting! This flexibility also gives me the opportunity for walks during the day and short notice care. I am very active so taking your dog out will be the best part of my day! I will follow any and all instructions you leave me for in-home pet care. I can assure you I will meet and exceed your expectations for pet-sitting. I will care for your pet as if they’re my own!
About: Hi! I have about 2 years of personal experience walking dogs for family friends. I like to believe I have a special bond with animals, and will treat them with nothing but love and care. There’s not much about me other than I’m young and full of energy! I’m recently graduated from Case Western Reserve University and have just started a full-time job. It can be kind of lonely living alone so what better way to get some company than to spend time with animals! I have experience walking, playing, sitting, feeding dogs, and overnight care. I’m open to sitting cats as well, I just don’t have as much experience with them. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you have, and we can work something out together! I’m currently working full-time at a mainly remote job, so I have plenty of time to spend at my home to take care of all of the necessary needs your pet may have. I have a large yard great for potty breaks and playing fetch. I’m also in a great neighborhood for walking. Keeping an eye on your pet at all times is my number one priority.

I highly recommend Brendan and Sarah.”

“Winston had the best stay! This was my first time ever leaving him, and I was understandably nervous, but I felt completely at ease from the start. There was constant communication throughout his stay, with updates that made me feel confident he was in great hands.

I’m so grateful for the care, attention, and love they showed Winston, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend!”

When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”
“Kimberly was great with my dog. I got updates daily with pictures. I can tell when my dog is stressed, and she didn’t appear stressed at all. All my instructions were followed, and medications given. I will use Kimberly again!”
“Aspen was great! She sent so many pictures and updates and even took Koda on a trip to an orchard. This was a great experience and Koda had a great weekend.”
About: I've been an animal person my entire life. I grew up helping pet-sit the neighborhood dogs, and my family loved a rescue German Shepherd/Rottweiler mix from the time I was 10 (she was 2) until she was 15 - she watched us grow up and even visited my college house. As an adult, my heart belonged to January, a border collie/American Staffordshire terrier mix I brought home in my late 20s after seeing her story on the news. She was an energetic, clever puppy who taught me patience, consistency, and the value of positive training. We had 13 wonderful years together before she passed in November 2025. Losing January left a hole in my routine and my heart, and i'm not quite ready to adopt again - but i've found real joy and healing in caring for other people's pets. I've recently house-sat and hosted dogs, cats, and birds for friends and family, from puppies and kittens to seniors on medications with special needs. That experience, plus a gentle nudge from the people who suggested Rover, is what brings me here. I've used the same trusted vet since I was a kid and know the ropes - comfortable administering medication, contacting the vet, or getting emergency care if needed. Your pet will be loved, watched closely, and cared for like one of my own. I work a hybrid schedule: two days at home (typically Monday and Friday) and three 8-hour days in an Avon Lake office (Tuesday-Thursday). My schedule is flexible and easy to swap these days. I can use my noon lunch break for midday walks, potty breaks, and playtime if you're within 5-10 miles of my location. I’m available in the evenings after work for walks, feeding & visits. I'm also happy to water plants, bring in mail, and handle other small house-sitting tasks. I live in a cozy Lakewood duplex on the first floor with a front yard and porch my dog loved to lounge on (yard stake leash available for safe outdoor time). I already have bowls, beds, leashes, and other supplies, so your pup won't need to travel with a pile of gear. I can board up to two dogs at a time -any size, any friendly mix - but I don't board cats in my home (happy to care for them at yours).
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both cats and dogs. I grew up around cats and have been a dog owner myself for the past 5 years, in addition to regularly caring for friends’ dogs. I work a 9–5 job from home, which means your pet gets plenty of company throughout the day rather than being left alone for hours. I’m also able to take dogs on an extended walk during my lunch break, so they can get some exercise, fresh air, and attention in the middle of the day. Whether your pet needs a long walk, some playtime, a cozy companion while you’re away, or just a little extra TLC, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and preferences. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for! My weekly routine is pretty consistent, which is great for dogs who love having a predictable schedule! Every workday I start each morning with a trip to the gym, then come home and take the pups on a nice, extended walk through the Metroparks near my house. Once we’re home, I settle into work for a few hours while the dogs get some downtime. I have a fenced-in yard, so I like to let them out regularly throughout the morning to stretch their legs, sniff around, and get some fresh air. Lunchtime means another extended walk! It’s a great way to break up the workday and give everyone a chance to burn off some energy. Afterward, my own dog usually settles in for a well-earned afternoon nap while I finish up work. Once the workday wraps up, we usually head outside for one more walk before settling in for the evening. If everyone’s feeling a little less energetic, we’ll skip the walk and have some backyard fun instead, such as fetch, tug-of-war, or just general goofing around. Basically, your pup can expect plenty of exercise, fresh air, playtime, and company throughout the day, with lots of opportunities to relax and recharge too. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to provide a comfortable, low-stress home environment where pups can feel like part of the family. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely get outside for fresh air and playtime, along with plenty of opportunities for walks and exercise throughout the day. Since I work from home, I’m also around to keep an eye on things and make sure everyone is doing well. For daycare and boarding, I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, crate time, and any other preferences or house rules you provide. I’ll also make sure dogs have time to relax and nap when they need a break from all the excitement. When introducing dogs to my home, I prioritize compatibility and a gradual introduction so everyone feels comfortable. I want every pup staying with me to feel safe, supervised, and genuinely at home, not like they’re being dropped off somewhere unfamiliar.
“Caroline and Samuel were fantastic with my dog Netty. They were flexible with pick up times and they genuinely care about your dogs well being and happiness. The updates they sent made me smile and reassured Netty was in good hands. Their dog Winnie is adorable and eager to play with your dog any chance she gets! 100% recommend booking with them! Will book again soon. Thank you for a great experience”
“Michael and Regina did a very good job taking care of Addie, even though she never got comfortable being away from us. They were willing to give Addie her daily medication and find a spot for her that made her feel less insecure. Genuinely, very nice people. House spotless and cozy.”
“Leonard and family took great care of our little Daisy! She made herself at home which was clear from the daily pictures we got while we were away. Communication was amazing and he was patient with our lack of cell coverage while we were on a cruise and our flight delay on the way back. We will definitely book again when needed!”
“Malik was an excellent pet sitter with a kind spirit and a welcoming smile. He provided regular updates with pictures and videos of my dog, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. He went above and beyond to help care for my dog, even monitoring and addressing his loose stool from anxiety before drop-off. I highly recommend Malik to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
