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!”
“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.”

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. :)”

She did a wonderful job, we’ve just come home and our cats are still happy and healthy, and their litter boxes clean! We had a crazy wind storm while we were gone that blew open a side door and knocked down part of our fence, she even helped to close & re-lock the door and sent a picture of our fence to let us know what had happened. This help showed me she cared about how we felt when we came home from our trip abroad!”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tom and Tolley (and their sweet and kind children) provided for Rudy!

About: There’s never been a time in my life where I haven’t been active. Realizing I could be both; active AND hang out with some furry friends - it was a no brainer for me. I’ve had two of my own dogs for the majority of my life (cat lover as well), so I’ve most definitely been acclimated to all that they may throw at me. I started rover mid 2025 as a side gig after hopping out of the 9-5 life - I now have a consistent clientele and pups/ kitties that I’ve watched grow up. I’m looking to continue booking up my schedule as I love what I now do! I most frequently get requested for walks and drop-ins. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to send me over a message!! I’m currently only working part-time. I have some time on my hands and love dogs as is, so when I realized this was a side gig option, I hopped on it! I’ll be accepting walks/sitting/pop ins whenever I’m free! I have an open house with no fragile valuables, a fenced in back yard, and crates/ closed off options. Also very adaptable to other homes systems.
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.
“My 6 year old blue heeler, who is normally very skeptical of strangers, took immediately to Rose and was very comfortable in her care. Banjo had only ever stayed with friends and family before, and I was anxious about how he would do in an unfamiliar environment with a new caregiver. Rose eased my mind by keeping me updated throughout the visit, and including photos of his activities and recreation time with the other dogs. He had a great time! And came home happy and tired. We’ll definitely be booking with Rose again very soon!”
“Nico had a great experience spending the day with Olesja. She sent lots of pictures through out the day, and was quick to respond when we reached out. Nico enjoyed playing with her dogs. She took amazing care of him. Really appreciate all the care and attention she gave him.”
“We left our baby, Oswald, with Karma for about 4 hours while we went to a concert. She sent us photos and updates so we knew he was doing well! I am always anxious about leaving him with anyone but he was safe and sound with Karma!”
“Walker had an amazing time at day care while we were at a wedding! We recently adopted him and knew he would be hesitant, but quickly warmed up and had a great time!!”
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: Hiiii, my name is Gianna! I live in Gordon/Ohio city area. I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I understand how important routines are and will always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions closely. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, or just companionship, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they need. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding, and can provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. Because I’m home most of the time, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I have a large fenced-in yard with a privacy fence, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run and play. I also have a friendly dog who enjoys company and helps visiting pets feel comfortable. My home has no carpet (just a few rugs), so accidents are never a big issue, and I always keep a clean, pet-safe environment. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely and provide regular updates and photos so you feel comfortable while you’re away.
“I was so stressed out about not getting a walker for my boy due to the practical blizzard outside. But James was able to make it happen! My heart is happy. 10/10 will rebook! (:”
“James was very easy going and patient with my puppy Moka. He took her for a nice extended walk, fed her and most of all, allowed her to warm up to him before he took her out.”
“Joe was great with communication, quick to respond, and treated my dog like his own during walks! He was accommodating to some of my dogs health challenges and limitations and willing to change up the normal routine to suit my dogs needs. Great experience!”
“Makenna was tasked with walking my very energetic, young, German Shepherd. She did not disappoint! My dog seemed to love walking with her, and Makenna has been very respectful, patient, and loving to my dog even though they just met! Makenna follows instructions to a T, is very thorough with providing me with updates, and has the utmost respect to your property and your pet! If Makenna can handle the energy of my dog, and provide it with good mid day safe exercise, she can do it for any dog. I would highly recommend Makenna for anyone’s pet care needs!”

She was flexible with our crazy schedule. We would definitely reach out to her again! Best boarding experience we have had!”
“Stephanie kept us updated on Karma regularly, and that put us at ease. She was quick to communicate when Karma had blood in his stools. Thank you Stephanie for taking care of Karma for 2 weeks!!”
“This is our second time with them and the longest so far we left Chubb for 3 weeks and they made him feel part of the family during the holiday I got updates every other days a lot of pictures and videos I can tell he had a great time with a lot of play and snuggles so far they have been amazing with him for sure we trust them to watch our dog”
“Was very nervous leaving my dog with anyone other than my parents, but will definitely be using Rachel again in the future! I got a lot of pictures while I was gone and always easy communication!”
“Mary did such a great job watching my dog for the weekend. She was super responsive from the start - we were able to get on a video call to meet very quickly and got the booking completed fast. She was communicative about pickup and drop off, sent lots of photos throughout his stay with her, and my dog looked like he was having so much fun. We would totally use her again and really appreciated how well she took care of him!”
“Aspen was great! She sent regular updates during Lemon's stay and I loved knowing Lemon and Aspen's dog, Clifford, had a great time together. We will definitely rebook during our stay in Cleveland!”
“We had such a great experience boarding our dog with Shannon and Robert. They made it easy from the start! You can tell that this is a family of dog-lovers, which brings so much comfort when leaving your baby behind. They updated us daily with pictures and tidbits on how the stay was going. Their home is calm, clean, and comfortable. We're so grateful for the love and care they gave our boy while we were away. We look forward to becoming a repeat customer & I will recommend Shannon and Robert to any and all friends in the future!”
“Thomas was absolutely awesome ! I am so thankful that we were able to find him. I have a 2 year old intact German shepherd and my husbands work closed on short notice for 2 weeks so we decided to take a vacation. I was scrambling to find some boarding for him but if you have a large power breed who isn’t neutered than you know it can be difficult to find places that accept them. The only boarding option I could find was a no contact facility where he would have been in a kennel the WHOLE time except for 3 30-1 hr potty breaks which were on a LARGER kennel area. Totally unacceptable to me. That’s when I started looking on Rover and was so glad to find Thomas. Not only does he care for your pet he also puts in the time and energy to exercise them which is so SO important to me. He was super flexible, gave me a ton of updates and still took Bear on walks/runs during this insane 95 degree heatwave we had. I totally trusted that he kept Bear safe during that time (walking in hot weather wise). This is a person who truly cares about animals and takes care of their physical, mental and emotional needs. I don’t know how to add pictures here but if I find out how to I will. Can’t say enough good things.”
“It was Giddy's first time with Keeley. He did great. Kelley kept me informed of how he was doing and sent me pictures of him playing in the snow. I'm sure Giddy will miss being there and playing with Luna. It was also my first time using the app. Kelley was very understanding with that and helped me when I needed to change the date. We are very pleased!”
“Phillis and Mike did an amazing job. Always sending pictures and videos of our Ellie a 1 year old Golden Retriever. I would highly recommend them to anyone. We definitely will be back again. Thanks you very much”
“Peter and his girlfriend dog sat for my Nina over the weekend while I was out of town. They were very accommodating when scheduling pick up and drop off times and made me and Nina feel comfortable as soon as we met them. They sent me pictures of Nina snuggling up with their dogs and updates on how she was doing. Would definitely book with them again!”
“Swetha took great care of my dog Zoey! She came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I appreciated the updates and photos throughout her stay. Would definitely book again—highly recommend!”
