“Jennifer treats your dog as if they're part of her own family. Her genuine love for animals truly shine through. We were beyond impressed with her care and attention! We'll absolutely be back!”
“Lily had such a great time staying with Carly!! I loved receiving photo updates to let me know how she was doing. Finding a good sitter is so important to me as Lily has had some awful experiences with caged boarding, and Carly was great. I can always tell when she has a good stay based on how she acts the day back, and she was super sleepy from all of the excitement!! Lily cannot wait to stay with Willow again and have some more beagle fun!!”
“Karin was absolutely amazing! She opened her home up to my puppy Bentley! She gave exceptional care to him. She went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable! She gave updates throughout the days she kept him and he even interacted with her dog. I give her 12/10 stars. She was absolutely wonderful and trustworthy with my baby boy!”
“I felt immediately comfortable with Myra upon meeting her. Sage had a great week and ate all week, something she never does in a kennel. Myra is a puppy lover and kept us updated during the week. We plan to use her service again in a few weeks!”

She's responsive and always sends photos and updates. We feel very comfortable trusting her with watching our boy!”

About: I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your dog while you’re away. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you peace of mind with regular updates and photos. I’ve cared for dogs for friends, family, and others and am comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality and routine so their stay feels as familiar and stress-free as possible. I work full time, but when I’m not at work I’m usually home and have plenty of time to give your pup lots of love and attention. My daughter and I love spending time outside, going on walks, and playing in our large yard, so your dog can enjoy plenty of activity and playtime with us. I have a large yard with plenty of space for dogs to play and get outside. I’ll treat your pup like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, and potty routine, and my daughter and I will give them plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles.
“Our pup, Sokka, absolutely loves Ryan which is helpful since our dog has anxiety around other dogs (so kennel boarding is a very stressful experience). We really appreciate that Ryan also takes Sokka on walks and dog park visits if he's able to do so. We highly recommend Ryan for boarding!”
“Joanne always does a great job taking care of Snow. Whenever she comes home, she is exhausted from all the playing. She actually gets excited when we pull up to Joanne's house. :)”

“This was my first time hiring Emma to check on my cats and she was amazing! Super communicative and she agreed to extend her visits a few days when my plans changed. Definitely would recommend in the future :)))”
“Bradley aka the cat whisperer did a fabulous job taking care of our little fluff ball. He was able to bring a very shy girl out of her shell. Shocking to us because she typically runs from anyone trying to get close to her. He was prompt and took great care when visiting our home. We would highly recommend Bradley for anyone needing someone they can trust with their little fur babies while out of town.”
“I was so nervous to leave my 3 kitties (ranging from kitten to senior) but Abbi did a great job and they were happy when I came home. She was detail oriented with complex instruction and they warmed up to her so quickly. She made me feel comfortable being away. Would definitely book again!”

About: With 3 cats of my own, I understand what it takes to care for, bond with, and connect with cats. Cats are the soul of a house, and it takes the right kind of person to understand them. I am proficient in all kinds of cat care including grooming, administering pills/medication, feeding routines, and an expert in playtime. I am fluent in "cat" and can ensure that they are placed in the best possible care under my watch.

“Alyson did an amazing job taking care of our two cats, Davinci and Snickers, while I was traveling for work. She communicated consistently and sent pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She made sure they were fed, their litter box was clean, and they always had fresh water in their fountain. She also brought in my mail and spent time playing with them. I’m very grateful for the excellent care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!”

Gracie has been morning but amazing, very communicative and is willing to take those extra steps my sweet girl needs! Highly recommend Gracie to be your pet sitter and I will continue to use her!”
About: Things to know about me: 1. I’ve been dog-obsessed since before the age of 5. I’m now 40(ish), and still have to control my natural and immediate impulse to pet every dog I see. And cats…and goats. Mostly dogs. 2. I have extensive experience with dogs of all kinds. I spent years volunteering at the SPCA. I’ve fostered, dog-sat, socialized and walked all kinds of dogs - large to small, long to short, elderly to puppies. I’ve been bitten more times than I care to admit, and I’ve still NEVER met a dog I don’t like. 3. They belong indoors, in the bed, and on the furniture. They deserve the cheese tax and also the chicken tax. There’s no such thing as a bad dog. I said what I said. In short, if you’re in or around the Dayton area and you need a walker or a day-sitter, I’ll be happy to. And I’ll love your dog like they’re my own while I’m with them. I’m currently available Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. throughout the day. I’m occasionally available on weekends during the day, although that availability is a little more infrequent. I’m available to walk and play with your dog, let them out, give treatos or feed as needed, and work on leash training and basic commands if needed.
“Yolena was a life saver and was able to watch my cat even though the request was very last minute. She kept me updated and sent pictures letting me know how my cat was doing. Great communication as well! Highly recommend!”

“After a last-minute work schedule change, I desperately needed someone to watch our puppy for the day. Thankfully, Arlissa was super fast in her response (even though it was 7 AM) and was able to watch Lyra. Clearly Lyra enjoyed it because she slept the entire ride home! Arlissa also took some beautiful pics which is a miracle considering how Lyra rarely stays still!”
“Karin Was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Yoshi and made sure he felt safe loved and comfortable and kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind I could tell Yoshi was in great hands and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Karin again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter! 🐾🐶”

The pix throughout the day helped me feel connected and assured. Will definitely trust them again with Nala care needs.💞💞💞”

About: Aloha! The only pet care experience I have is small animals due to the apartment complex rules I lived in as a child, as an adult I feed stray animals and do not have any pets of my own due to my love of travel/adventure I can only take care of other people's animals or feed strays at the moment. My neighbors have a Alaskan Husky that I adore so very much that I have bought her treats and toys every few months they don't mind as our families have both been in the neighborhood for decades and have known each other. I would love start a dog walking job to get to know the city and the people who live there. Much Love & Mahalo!
About: I've been an animal lover my whole life and have grown up around both cats a dogs. I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs. My dog, Phoebe, was diagnosed with lymphoma in October of 2025, and I helped care for her by giving her medication, bathing her, taking her on multiple walks each day, and making sure she was as comfortable as possible. She passed away in May, and I miss our daily walks and spending time with her. That experience taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of paying close attention to a pet's individual needs. I currently have three cats and regularly care for all of them. I'm comfortable bathing cats, trimming their nails, and recognizing when they need extra attention or a little space. When I was nine years old, my family adopted a kitten that had been abandoned by its mother, and I helped bottle feed and care for him, giving me experience with very young kittens as well. This summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, so I'm happy to work around your pet's routine, whether they need early morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, or multiple visits throughout the day. In the fall, I'll only have two in-person college classes, which will still leave me with plenty of flexibility to provide dependable care. I'll always make sure your pet gets the time, attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve, and I'll do my best to accommodate your scheduling needs Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I know that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I will take the time to follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, favorite toys, and any special care they may need.
About: I have a huge passion for animals of all types. I will be attentive to your dog's individual needs from dietary to exercise.

I enjoy playing with dogs, taking them on walks, being there for cuddles, or simply providing comfort for their anxiety. Every dog is an individual so I will tailor a plan for your dog accordingly. I have a variety of availability and am prompt to alert to changes. I am great at training and maintaining training routines. I'm currently working a flexible semi remote job. Depending on the needs of the dog(s) I can adjust certain times of my week to accommodate special cases. I can care for pets at your home. My beagle girl is skittish around other dogs and trained with an e fence perimeter. I have dog sat and house sat for friends, family, and unrelated new acquaintances. I have a safe and nurturing spirit combined with a strong enough presence that dogs respect without my need to raise my voice.

About: **SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY, PLEASE!** 😄 Hi, I am Isabella and I will be a great companion, friend & nurturer to your pets!! I love to spend time with dogs whether that’s playing with them, going for a walk, a park adventure, giving them baths, rewarding them or just hanging out- I meet all their needs at all times. Aside from that, I also keep your home CLEAN & SAFE! I am huge on safety so you will be in good hands with me. I am also happy to do small errands for you- (mail monitoring, etc.) so you can enjoy your time away from home without worries, or be less distracted during your work day. If requested, I am happy to send picture updates to show your dog is living the dream. 😄😉 I have taken care of dogs of various breeds since I was 9 years old. Growing up, I owned a Chow Chow, which was a real treat. I even loved giving her baths! She had 2 litters of puppies-sets of 6 & 8, so I got lots of joy from training & playing with puppies until they were adopted. Since then, I have done pet sitting/house sitting/babysitting for various friends & family over the years, and eventually started using Rover in 2021. The most dogs I’ve house-sat with at one time are 3. I am accustomed to following your pet’s individualized routine. I am very much a dog lover. I don’t currently own one due to apartment restrictions, but greatly wish I could. I like to dog sit because I get so much out of it. I truly LOVE DOGS! I am quite familiar with various breeds and their unique traits. Some of the breeds I have cared for are as follows: Akita, American Eskimo, Australian Shepherd, Bernedoodle, Bichon Frise, Border Collie, Boxer, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Chow Chow, English Bulldog, Frenchie, German Shepherd, Great Dane, Greyhound, Golden Retriever, Jack Russell Terrier, Labradoodle, Labrador Retriever, Pug, Newfoundland, Rat Terrier, Rottweiler, Saint Bernard, Sheltie, Toy Poodle, Welsh Corgi. I cared quite often for a dog with congestive heart failure who needed medicine & needed monitored for his breathing & risk for fainting. I’ve also cared for blind dogs and older dogs with dementia. Some of the dogs I’ve watched take medicine or have dietary supplements and restrictions. I’ve never had any pet emergencies while pet-sitting for others, but did have to take my family dog on an emergency run in her final days which resulted in her passing from old age at 16 years. I mention this to say, if an emergency would ever arise while pet sitting- I am familiar with the process to get the dog help. I have MedVet info saved to my phone so you can rest easy knowing I am prepared for any out of the ordinary circumstances any time of day or night. I also like cats & have done cat sitting on a more rare occasion, including homes with a cat and dog, or only cats. I have lived with a cat who was very close to me in recent years so I am familiar with their behaviors and needs. I’ve also administered medication to a cat with FIV although it is a bit tricky. I hope that I have given you good insight on my pet sitting experience and look forward to being your new dog or even cat sitter if needed! Please feel free to ask questions! I look forward to meeting your pet soon! Thanks for reading my profile. I currently have a very adaptable schedule and i’m currently accepting new clients and bookings at this time, although I am typically in high demand. I can walk your dog around the neighborhood or take the pet to the nearest park, if it’s during a safe time of the day and a more safe neighborhood! I am sure to give frequent bathroom breaks & always take the dog out right before bed time! I will care for your home & possessions like they are my own. I always leave the home in the same condition I arrived to or even a touch more tidy if I am house sitting.
About: I’ve grown up caring for multiple dogs throughout my life, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and everyday care. I treat every dog like family and prioritize their safety and happiness. I am currently home from college for the summer. I do not have other responsibilities, so caring for your pet is my top priority. I am free every day to be able to feed, walk, and play with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their everyday routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m providing walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll ensure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, meals, and any other care instructions you provide.
About: Professional companion care at a great price for those that value their animals! I am a very clean and cut healthcare professional that loves to care for animals on the side, your dogs and cats will come home happy and healthy. I work part time in healthcare, if the time you need is during one of my workdays, I may have to reject the booking depending on what it is. Other than that, pet care fits well into my life. I have a fenced yard and one dog & one cat of my own. I also have a number of large dog parks nearby, as well as walking paths to go to.
About: I've had dogs ever since I was 10, but my experience with them goes far beyond that. When I was a little kid, before I ever had a dog, I would go to this read with a dog program called "Paws to Read." I would spend countless hours reading to the dogs and befriending them, along with a cat or two here and there. When I was 10, I got my first dog, a husky, and gave him a wonderful life. He had quite a few medical issues and behaved older for his age because of it, so I know how to provide senior pet care. He has since passed, but my two current dogs, one pitbull and one pitsky, remind me every day how important pets are to me. I've had them both for eight years now, during which we've taken numerous car rides, walks, enjoyed outside and inside playtime, movie nights, and anything a dog could dream of. Now, while I've never had a cat because of the majority of my family being allergic, I never turn away from a cat. I'm a regular at the Gem City Catfe, where I play with the cats often and have gone so often that they are comfortable with me. I keep cat and dog treats on me in case I come across a stray, because all cats and dogs deserve to feel some love. I've also dog-sat and house-sat for a few friends before, so I know how to handle situations like pets not getting along, bathroom accidents, and being a bit of a picky eater. Currently, I am a full time student and work full time at UDRI (UD's Research Institute) from 8:30am - 3:30am. During the summer I won't be taking any in person classes, just two online. But when I return to UD for my final year, I will be taking classes again and may be slightly more limited. When it comes to my pets and caring for clients pets, the comfort of the pet is most important to me. Personally, my two dogs don't get along with each other very well, so they typically have to be separated. Even so, I always make sure to treat them both equally and give them lots of love! If I take one for a car ride and ice cream, I bring ice cream back for the other and take the other for a car ride later that week. If my client has dogs similar to mine, who need to be separated, I would be sure to treat them equally and split my time with them according to my client's requests. Given single-pet households, I'd spend a lot of my time with them! In my downtime, I'd make sure to sit with them while I work on coursework. I'd be sure to take them on walks and go for potty breaks. And of course I'd make sure we get a lot of play time in and lots of love!

“Jennifer treats your dog as if they're part of her own family. Her genuine love for animals truly shine through. We were beyond impressed with her care and attention! We'll absolutely be back!”
“I felt immediately comfortable with Myra upon meeting her. Sage had a great week and ate all week, something she never does in a kennel. Myra is a puppy lover and kept us updated during the week. We plan to use her service again in a few weeks!”
About: Hi! I have owned several of my own dogs. I have taken care of many friends dogs and I love dogs and animals in general! I am a stay at home mom who homeschools my kids so I can give your dogs lots of time and personal care. Would love to take care of your dog! I have a fenced in yard and 2 other dogs but they are very well trained. I live right by a park too and I go on daily walks!
“Rebecca, Ethan, and their lovely family were amazing with our older dog! We are so grateful for their kindness and the care they took to let us know how well our pup was doing with them.”
“Alysia is a great sitter for our pup Max! She was very careful and considerate when we first introduced him to her dogs, and they all play well together. Max comes home tired and happy! She's responsive and always sends photos and updates. We feel very comfortable trusting her with watching our boy!”

About: I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your dog while you’re away. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you peace of mind with regular updates and photos. I’ve cared for dogs for friends, family, and others and am comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality and routine so their stay feels as familiar and stress-free as possible. I work full time, but when I’m not at work I’m usually home and have plenty of time to give your pup lots of love and attention. My daughter and I love spending time outside, going on walks, and playing in our large yard, so your dog can enjoy plenty of activity and playtime with us. I have a large yard with plenty of space for dogs to play and get outside. I’ll treat your pup like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, and potty routine, and my daughter and I will give them plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles.
“Our pup, Sokka, absolutely loves Ryan which is helpful since our dog has anxiety around other dogs (so kennel boarding is a very stressful experience). We really appreciate that Ryan also takes Sokka on walks and dog park visits if he's able to do so. We highly recommend Ryan for boarding!”
“Joanne always does a great job taking care of Snow. Whenever she comes home, she is exhausted from all the playing. She actually gets excited when we pull up to Joanne's house. :)”
“Karen was perfect with Timber. She made sure that he was taken care of like her own. He got to have alot of fun with the other dogs and even got to go swimming! Definitely a recommendation in my book!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience with Jacob. We were pretty nervous about leaving Reina since she’s a rescue and can be a little anxious around new people, but Jacob immediately put us at ease. He took the time to meet with us beforehand, asked thoughtful questions, and even took notes about Reina’s routine, what she likes, and her do’s and don’ts. It was obvious he genuinely cared about making her feel comfortable. While we were away, he kept us updated with plenty of pictures and communicated with us consistently, which made a huge difference and allowed us to actually relax on our trip. Every update showed us that Reina was being well cared for and getting lots of attention. If you’re looking for someone who is patient, communicative, and truly cares about your dog, we highly recommend Jacob. We’ll absolutely be booking with him again. Thank you for taking such great care of our girl!”
“Pietro was absolutely amazing!! Maple is nervous around men but she was so comfortable with him. He sent plenty of pictures and videos and even kept her a few hours longer to help me out since I broke my leg. Would definitely recommend!!”
About: My partner Anthony and I have extensive pet care experience through house sitting for several families, caring for a wide variety of dogs with different needs and personalities. We've looked after dogs who require a high level of care, including administering medication, following strict routines, and maintaining consistent feeding and walking schedules. We've also cared for easy-going pets who simply need companionship, exercise, and lots of love. We pride ourselves on being attentive, reliable, and adaptable, making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Erin works close to home, so she can come back and care for the dogs during the workday. I am available for boarding on weekends, depending on my schedule. We will make sure your dog is well taken care of! We have a fun, friendly, energetic dog to keep your dog company. We have a partially fenced-in yard, but I will never leave your dog outside alone. We only want to accept dogs that do well/get along with other dogs for the safety of our dog, Ozzy, and ourselves.
“Chili Pepper was well taken care of during our family vacation! Derek and Megan were flexible, understanding, and great communicators! I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone! I know I will be when we are away again! Thank you so so much!”
“Rachel is excellent!!! Snicker has been in her care twice and both times she has had the best time! She has made some new doggie friends! Rachel keeps me updated and sends the cutest pictures! I highly recommend Rachel for your pet sitting needs! :)”
