Personalized care for your dog or cat - Cook
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Cook
“My dog had a fantastic time with Hasber. He sent lots of pictures and updates. He was also very flexible when I asked to extend the stay on short notice. She came home tired, which is not easy for an aussie!”
“Lauren took great care of Zuri! She has a great space for dogs, handled medications/other needs well, was flexible with a last-minute booking, and sent frequent updates and pictures. We will definitely be back in the future!”
“Stacey and her family took great care of our pups. She sent photos and gave regular updates of how they were doing. Both dogs were happy and comfortable in their home.”
“Amber was a rockstar. We are always nervous to leave our senior chiweenie with anyone new because he is very skiddish. He opened up to Amber, and her family was patient as he took more time to become comfy around them. She took him on nice walks and followed the scheduled to a tee. We appreciate the constant communication and honesty Amber provided about Franklin during his stay. We will 100% book Amber again to care for our buddy.”
“Leo our English mastiff loves going on vacation to Bethany ‘s! He loves that he can play w his friends, both two & 4 legged ones! We his family are comforted knowing that he will be in a family environment and not locked up. He has never been caged & we can’t begin to imagine what that would do to him if we had to take him to a kennel! We hate to have to leave Leo behind but knowing he is in great hands ( and getting very spoiled!) helps. We will be back again for our 4th + time;)”
“Ella LOVES her time with Kathryn and Teddy who is ALWAYS super communicative and has a positive attitude! We appreciate Kathryn and her patience so much and looking forward to future stays!”
“Best experience my dog has ever had being taken care of while I was away! Rosemarie and her husband were incredibly kind and attentive, and it truly felt like my dog was able to feel at home the whole time. Loved how often I got updates with vids/pics. Will definitely be booking her with Rosemarie from now on :)”
“Emily was so easy to work with, and very flexible. Quick response, and communicated well. My Tucker is a big boy and a handful, but she sent a picture of him happy and playing outside. He came home a happy pup. I would book with her again!”
“Rachel took wonderful care of my dog River over Christmas, lots of updates & photos & very individualized care, River seemed to love hanging out with Rachel’s family & came back very calm and happy!”
“Alexandria was really wonderful with my dog Henry! She was great at communicating both before and during my dog's stay. Henry seemed to have a great time and got along well with her sweet dogs!”
“This was our first time using Rover. We selected Ellen because she had many positive reviews as well as multiple returning clients. We made the right choice selecting Ellen to watch our fur babies. She is extremely accommodating and understanding. Our 2 pups have a number of quirks, but Ellen worked with them and gave them a home away from home. She sent multiple pictures a day and some videos, along with an update of the daily activities. We will absolutely be using Ellen if we go away and need a sitter. I cannot speak any higher of Ellen. Highly recommend! Thanks again Ellen for putting our minds at ease.”
“Mary was wonderful! She sent at least one update a day, usually more, and my high energy doodle had such a great time with her and her husband and their own dogs. He got lots and lots of exercise with regular walks and zoomies in their giant backyard. We’d love to use Mary again!”
“Kimberly and her family were so good to our little Molly that I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home. It was a true blessing finding Kimberly on Rover. I hope she has room for her the next time I need a dog border. Thank you so very much Kimberly.”
“Could not have asked for a better experience for Cooper! Loved the photos and updates. I could tell he was happy and did not worry about him and really enjoyed my trip. She welcomed him as part of her family!”
“Lauren and her family took Doug in as if he was their own. I recieved updates and plenty of pictures of Doug playing with their puppy Cinder, who is an absolute sweetheart. There is absolutely no doubt that I will be booking with Lauren and her family again.”
“I had the best experience, leaving my dog with Cindy. She was amazing at caring for him and sending me photos and videos along the way. She was also super understanding when I shared that my flight has been canceled and that I needed to book an extra day. She continue to care for my dog, an updated me more along the way as well. Super appreciative of her and can’t wait till the next booking.”
“Andrew and his family were very welcoming to Dolly, and they sent an update during our trip so we knew she was adjusting. At pick up it was easy to tell that she had become one of the gang. We would recommend Andrew to care for your pet!”
“Maolin was the best and took such good care of Avery! She sent daily updates of their adventures on walks and to the dog park. With her we knew our pup was safe and happy over a long trip out of town!”

“Justin was an awesome sitter for our two cats during a weeklong trip out of state! He was obviously great with our pets, easy to communicate with, and flexible to meet our needs. He was very respectful of our home as well, and left it looking the same if not better than we did :) We booked fairly last minute, and it was such a relief meeting Justin, and knowing our boys would be well taken care of. Thanks again Justin, we would love to book again in the future!”
“Kara was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my Fox Fox while I was away, providing regular updates and ensuring everything was in perfect order. It’s clear she truly loves animals—my pet was happy, well-fed, and even got extra playtime with their favorite toys! Kara’s attention to detail and kindness gave me complete peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was a child. I have helped my girlfriend train our current dog which is a bernedoodle.

I am currently a dental student at Ohio state and I am in school from 7:30-4:00 daily but the weekends I am free. Some days I will finish before 4:00 but that depends on the week. I feed and water my current dogs and cats every morning and every evening. They get treats throughout the day when they exhibit good behavior and listening skills so they know that is a positive thing to keep doing it.
About: When I was around 7 my mother and I, freshly moved into our new house got our first cat, a Tabby cat, Oscar. He was the moth friendly and loving cat but a bit lonely so soon after we got a kitten Adam. Although more aloof as he got older, he and Oscar were the best of buddies. In high school we got my first kitten Norman. He was my little follower for as long as I could remember. Leaving him with my mother after college was hard but uprooting him from his home was not something I could do. Through the years I have slowly taken in more cats. Currently I have 4, Charles, Maddie, Dexter, and Luna, all which were found on the streets, or crazy enough, at work. I love them dearly and spoil them as much as a can.

Rose has been very reliable and up front about her availability, which is really important to me. I get the cutest pictures of Samuel on our cards after I pick him up. You can tell he enjoys himself when he's there. The most important thing to me is how much they both care about Sam. It's been a great relationship so far.

“We were initially apprehensive about hiring someone to take care of our beloved Shih Tzu-Yorkshire terrier mix, Nikko. However, Cindy’s exceptional service quickly put our worries to rest.

Cindy kept us updated throughout the entire process, sending pictures and providing detailed updates on Nikko’s activities and well-being. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Nikko and his happiness.

About: Growing up from an early age my family and I have always had dogs and cats. The first dog I was around consistently was my grandmothers, Buddy. I loved her with all my heart as a child and followed her around constantly. When I was young I got my first cat Oscar. He was a calm but talkative orange tabby. My mother then got Adam to give Oscar a friend. My first dog I got from a local shelter, Lulu. Over the years I had a few more. A newfoundland Bernie who would wait patiently at the water bowl for the cats to be done. Norman, a black cat who had an old man meow. A German Shepard mix, Guthrie who was a ball of energy from day one, and 2 dachshund mixes, Joe and Axle who look completely different from each other but follow each other everywhere.

I firmly believe having pets to love is one of the best parts in life. I currently work full time on a split second/third shift job but am looking at schooling for a trade. I have three days off a week where I do most around the house and garden. Mornings and early afternoons are always available for me.

I make sure to get to know their routines, special habits, personalities, and favorite things so they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home! I update my schedule often throughout the week! I am available for all services throughout the week, please check on what days I’m available for which services on the booking calendar! I am located in an apartment. I provide full-time daytime care, overnight stays, drop-ins, or walks at clients’ homes or nearby. When visiting, I respect the clients belongings and know which rooms are accessible during each stay. I’m aware of security cameras. Respectful of bathrooms, showers, Kitchens, Bedrooms. I bring and make my own food. I also discuss how to handle outgoing/incoming mail, trash, and ensure all doors, windows, and garages are locked and secure.

“Dawn and Robert were recommended to us by a friend and we are so happy they did. Our pup had a great time and was well-loved while we were out of town. We got regular updates and pictures and videos. They have a very nice yard for our dog to get exercise and play. I won’t hesitate to reach out for our next dog-sitting!”

“Best experience my dog has ever had being taken care of while I was away! Rosemarie and her husband were incredibly kind and attentive, and it truly felt like my dog was able to feel at home the whole time. Loved how often I got updates with vids/pics. Will definitely be booking her with Rosemarie from now on :)”

“This was our first time using Rover. We selected Ellen because she had many positive reviews as well as multiple returning clients. We made the right choice selecting Ellen to watch our fur babies. She is extremely accommodating and understanding. Our 2 pups have a number of quirks, but Ellen worked with them and gave them a home away from home. She sent multiple pictures a day and some videos, along with an update of the daily activities. We will absolutely be using Ellen if we go away and need a sitter. I cannot speak any higher of Ellen. Highly recommend! Thanks again Ellen for putting our minds at ease.”
“Mary was wonderful! She sent at least one update a day, usually more, and my high energy doodle had such a great time with her and her husband and their own dogs. He got lots and lots of exercise with regular walks and zoomies in their giant backyard. We’d love to use Mary again!”
“Kimberly and her family were so good to our little Molly that I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home. It was a true blessing finding Kimberly on Rover. I hope she has room for her the next time I need a dog border. Thank you so very much Kimberly.”
“Could not have asked for a better experience for Cooper! Loved the photos and updates. I could tell he was happy and did not worry about him and really enjoyed my trip. She welcomed him as part of her family!”
“Bo is always comfortable and calm with Waffles’ family. Never a shortage of cute photos of the two of them having adventures! They’re our go-to!”
“Tom and his family took such great care of my dog, Peaches. He provided so many photos and treated her like his own dog. I will definitely entrust him to care for her again!”
“Kelsey is absolutely wonderful! I always feel completely at ease leaving my dog with her when I go on vacation. Her place is perfect for dogs — the yard is huge, and there are other friendly dogs for mine to play with, which makes the stay extra fun. You can tell Kelsey genuinely cares about the animals she watches. She’s responsible, communicative, and treats my dog like one of her own. I’m so thankful to have found someone I trust completely with my pup. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, fun, and caring environment for their dog!”
“Maolin was the best and took such good care of Avery! She sent daily updates of their adventures on walks and to the dog park. With her we knew our pup was safe and happy over a long trip out of town!”
“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful. She kept us updated on our Fur baby which was very helpful. It was our first time being away from home, so we were a little anxious about the process. She made it very easy for us and we will definitely use her services again! In fact I'm pretty sure that Fur baby wants a playdate!”
