“Dawn was a godsend for us! We had to unexpectedly find arrangements for our dog so we could travel for a funeral, and Dawn responded immediately and was so kind, gracious, and accommodating with our short notice. She not only took care of our dog, but loved on him while we were away, and sent lots of photos and updates. We are so grateful to have found Dawn and Rob to take care of Shadow, and will definitely use them again!”

“My boarding experience with Lauren has been great. I felt really comfortable knowing she was well cared for during my extended trip away. Lauren is easy to communicate with and very responsive. We also do daycare with her and my Yorkie enjoys going back, which says a lot since she’s usually pretty anxious in environments outside of the house. Lauren is very kind and treats my little one like her own, and I really appreciate the care she gives her. We’ve had a great experience overall.”

I felt comfortable leaving my pet, and he was happy when I came to pick him up.”

We hadn't used a pet sitter in awhile and were nervous to try someone new, but Amber answered all of my questions right away, took the time to do a meet and greet first, and provided excellent communication throughout the stay.

I would not hesitate to recommend her or use her again in the future. Thank you!”

We also really appreciated the daily updates with photos - it meant a lot to be able to see our guy and know he was doing well while we were gone! We will definitely rebook in the future!”

“We had a great experience with Ellen this past long weekend. She took wonderful care of our goldendoodle and made the whole process easy and stress free.

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!”

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up caring for pets of my own as well as family members’ dogs. Over the years, I’ve gained plenty of hands on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, keeping them company, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I especially enjoy spending time with small dogs and love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and routine. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat your dog with the same patience, attention, and affection I would give my own. Pet care will be my full-time focus, so I’ll have plenty of time and flexibility to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I’ll be available throughout the day for walks, feedings, bathroom breaks, bathing/cleaning, playtime, and companionship, while following each pet’s individual routine and needs. My priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, grooming, and other needs while giving them plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I’ll take the time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and routines and I’ll always approach them with patience and kindness so they feel comfortable and loved while in my care. I want every pet to feel happy, relaxed and well cared for while their owners are away.

I currently work Monday-Friday 9pm-5am I am available in the early mornings 6-8 am and evenings 4-8 pm for drop ins and walks. I am also flexible with my availability on weekends and can accommodate most schedules. I have several years experience handling dogs and the challenges they often bring with them. I am first aid and CPR certified for dogs and cats. I always have an extra slip leash and break stick (a tool used to help safely open a dog's mouth in the event of a bite) on me in case of emergencies. I have two friendly dogs who are always looking for new friends, if your dog would benefit from the company.

About: I have taken care of my own cats along with family’s , neighbors, and friends cats for over two decades now. I’m comfortable administering medication to even the most stubborn/challenging of kitties and happy to feed them meals and approved snacks, play with them and clean their litter box while you are away.

During the holidays and summer months I am off work and like to spend all day with mine and your pup! When dogs are in my care, I like to allow the dogs to be as active as possible. I have a big yard to allow dogs to play in. I also have a gravel yard in case it’s too muddy, there is still space available to be active and we can go for walks in the neighborhood!

I grew up in a home with two dogs, both of which I’ve helped care for and go out of my way to spoil with love. Fun fact: I’ve also raised and cared for goats, rabbits, cats, turtles, frogs, and fish. I am a full-time student, but I would love to care for (& walk!) your furry companion(s) in my spare time. I’m a firm believer that the best therapists have wagging tails!

“Kathryn B was amazing with my dog during our meetup last week and her first Day Care yesterday. She shared info about her day including pictures of my dog peacefully napping beside her pet and later napping on Kathryn’s lap. I definitely will book with her again and highly recommend Kathryn B.”

“Karla is hands-down the best dog sitter I’ve ever experienced. Her love for dogs is immediately clear in everything she does. She has a spacious backyard that gives the dogs plenty of room to run and play, and her home is always clean, well-kept, and welcoming. What I appreciate most is how she allows dogs be themselves while ensuring a safe, well-managed environment. She pays close attention to group dynamics, making sure all the dogs interact well and play safely. I felt completely at ease leaving Bruno in her care, and that peace of mind is priceless. I would book with Karla again and again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”

“I was so pleased with the services provided by Amber while watching my little one. She interacted with her wonderfully and gave her lots and lots of attention.

I have full trust in her with my fur-baby!”

“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. She went above and beyond in every aspect of her care. Nikko had a fantastic time at Cindy’s daycare and even made some new doggie friends. 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. We are incredibly grateful to have found Cindy and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring doggy daycare provider. Thank you, Cindy, for taking such wonderful care of Nikko!”

An altogether wonderful family and I would highly recommend”


About: The first dog I ever met was a stray my family found in the winter—she was trying to stay warm under my dad’s truck. We had just returned from cutting wood and happened upon her all curled up and shivering. I begged my parents to keep her and am grateful they did! We named her Maddie and it was through caring for her that I learned how to properly love, train and take care of animals. I knew early on that I wanted pet-sitting to be a big part of my life. As a kid, I became the neighborhood dog walker and pet-sitter. Friends, family and neighbors would hire me for my services, sometimes for months at a time while they were away! I have been pet-sitting as an adult for awhile now and have helped keep over 30 dogs happy and healthy through house-sitting and walking while their owners were away! A little about me: I’m a student-athlete at Ohio Dominican University, where I study and run track. Being a student athlete for much of my life has taught me how to manage my time and has also instilled in me hardworking values. These are transferable skills that definitely help me manage my pet-sitting business and if you asked one of my clients, I’m sure they would agree that I am kind, caring, professional and hardworking. I can give dogs all the love and care they need, even when it is hard work or demands extra patience! I am also sure to keep in constant communication with my clients and send updates about their pup in real time. I want you to know that your dog is safe and happy when in my care and will do everything I can to make sure you feel satisfied with my work!

I myself have a fenced in yard, but I am comfortable with non yard homes, walking dogs, going to a dog park, groomers, providing medicine and cuddles.

About: We’ve grown up with dogs in our homes and have owned dogs for nearly 10 years now. We provide for all of their care, and have experienced that care from puppyhood through late adulthood. We have experience housebreaking, crate training, behavioral training, and trick/skills training. Our oldest dog, Chloe, has also experienced double CCL surgeries, so we also have experience with rehabilitation, medication issuance, and emotional support during healing. We’ve dog sat for multiple of our friends dogs who have special feeding schedules and needs that we've been able to maintain while they are with us. Given our experience, we are comfortable and confident to provide your dog with a safe and caring environment, where their needs can be met and they can have fun while you're away, playing with our dogs both in our home and in our fenced in back yard. We both work full time from home and care for our two dogs throughout the day, so your dogs will have non-stop supervision, socialization, and 2 other dogs to keep them company for their entire stay. We have two dogs currently that we have had for 9 and 3 years, that get along great with other dogs with experiences in other Rover's homes, time at The Wag (Dog Park & Bar near Grandview), having spent time at Doggy Daycares, and countless playdates with our friends' dogs through the years. We have a fenced in backyard where the dogs can play and have fun. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a large house for the dogs to run and play throughout the day. There is manmade ponds in our neighborhood with walking trails for when everyone wants to go on a walk.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and understand that pets are family. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I’m patient, dependable, attentive to routines, and skilled at recognizing behavioral changes and individual needs. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, providing companionship, administering basic medications when instructed, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I have experience providing both in-home pet sitting and boarding dogs in my own home. Before transitioning into the corporate world, I partnered with a friend who owned a successful dog-sitting business, where I cared for pets for approximately six years. During that time, I gained experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and care needs. I’m now excited to return to pet care because it’s something I truly enjoy. I enjoy spending quality time with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care.

“After 2 walks with Mallory, I'm pleased. Jimmy knew what she was here for the second walk. He's tired after, which is what I wanted. I added a pic of him sleeping tonight (1 1/2hrs) after his walk. His eyes are rolled back in his head, and snoring. Mallory is very kind and obviously loves animals. I'm so grateful to have found a great match. Excited to see Jimmy be more active.”

Right now i have a mini golden doodle. She is a very special dog lol. She gets on my nerves but i wouldn’t trade her for anything. She’s always doing different things to keep me on my toes.

They will get the proper exercise for sure. I love to run with them.

About: Hi! I’m a part-time Speech-Language Pathologist, mom to an animal-loving son (school age), and lifelong pet lover with over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities.

I have had 11 dogs and 3 cats over the course of my adult life and have loads of experience with special needs animals, medication administration, injectable/diabetic animal treatment, seniors, special diet, allergies, you name it! I can also help with any plant care, fish feeding/cleaning or other household management tasks as needed.
About: I have been working with dogs since my mid-teens, from fostering to training and just about everything in between. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as mobility, hearing, and visual imparments. I specialize in hyper, anxious, and reactive dogs. I also have a passion for socialization and confidence building. I am first aid and CPR certified for dogs and cats. I also have experience in oral medication administration. I currently work Monday-Friday 9pm-5am I am available in the early mornings 6-8 am and evenings 4-8 pm for drop ins and walks. I am also flexible with my availability on weekends and can accommodate most schedules. I have several years experience handling dogs and the challenges they often bring with them. I am first aid and CPR certified for dogs and cats. I always have an extra slip leash and break stick (a tool used to help safely open a dog's mouth in the event of a bite) on me in case of emergencies. I have two friendly dogs who are always looking for new friends, if your dog would benefit from the company.

About: I have had animals since I was 6 and I take care of my animals and my friends and family! I would love to spend time with your furry friends! Currently I am just looking for jobs but in the meantime I am trying to earn money for payments I need and care for my animals! I always have a phone on me so if I need to contact someone or I need contacted that will never be an issue and I am never late and will always be there for your furry friends!

About: I’ve been walking with another app, and I absolutely love it! I have a few regular clients I see, but I would love to add a few more fur babies to my daily agenda :) I’m currently saving for my wedding, and I’m a stay at home mom, so every dollar is greatly appreciated! :) I promise your babies are in great hands. I’m currently a stay at home, with more than enough time on my hands! Honestly taking care of the fur babies brings me so much joy, while I can still enjoy the freedoms of not having a “9-5” job. I’m very thankful for each and every opportunity’ The most safe!!! I’m a mom and I have eyes like a hawk! They are in great hands. I truly take a lot of pride in the work that I do, and I know each and every fur baby is irreplaceable and I treat them as such :)

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up caring for pets of my own as well as family members’ dogs. Over the years, I’ve gained plenty of hands on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, keeping them company, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I especially enjoy spending time with small dogs and love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and routine. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat your dog with the same patience, attention, and affection I would give my own. Pet care will be my full-time focus, so I’ll have plenty of time and flexibility to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I’ll be available throughout the day for walks, feedings, bathroom breaks, bathing/cleaning, playtime, and companionship, while following each pet’s individual routine and needs. My priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, grooming, and other needs while giving them plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I’ll take the time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and routines and I’ll always approach them with patience and kindness so they feel comfortable and loved while in my care. I want every pet to feel happy, relaxed and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: Children and pets are the whole that fills my heart and they are my precious family member. I promise to treat them such. I’ve had a dog for over 20 years. As well as I’ve been pet sitting for over 12+ years now. Would love to help out!!! I’m currently transitioning jobs in life right now, so very free flexible and can stay home with them all day every day!! and give them the priority and care and attention. They deserve. Boarding in your home or my home is the same promise and that is of safety, love and positivity trove energy! their needs being taken care of and playing with them and until their heart’s content.
About: Available M,T,Th,F for evenings. W,Sa,Su available all day!! Hi there, I’m Kaisee and I can’t wait to meet your fur babies. I’ve worked closely with dogs (and cats) for many years now. From dog sitting and grooming to working at an emergency vet clinic, dogs have always had a special place with me. I understand that personal lives outside of the house can be hectic and that unfortunately dogs aren’t allowed everywhere we can go, I’m here to make sure your best friend/fur child will get the attention they need when you aren’t around and I promise not to spoil them too much. I can give grooming tips if needed and know how to train for basic commands, if needed. I look forward to meeting you and your four legged best friend. :) I work early hours M,T,Th,F so I am off work every Wednesday and home by 4pm other days. I also know that work isn’t the only thing that keeps us out of the house. Can always check in before bed time so clients can enjoy a late night out. When entering a new clients residence I am sure to keep everything neat and tidy and make sure your pet is safe and healthy. Talking in a soft voice as to not scare any pets and make sure all things are secure before leaving.

About: I have experience in home health care for the elderly, often providing support that extends to their pets as well. My experience with pets have been primarily dog walking for clients, feeding, pet/home maintenance I’m currently making myself entirely open to this experience into pet care as to making this my career. I enjoy being connected more with present life, and I feel as taking care of animals would set me on that track. I offered care to pets by fulfilling their needs, wants, and offering companionship. I also intend on extending care to making the environment more hygienic for the pet.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 11. From running over to let out the neighbor’s dog, to pet sitting for friends & family members while they’re on vacation. I grew up in a home with two dogs, both of which I’ve helped care for and go out of my way to spoil with love. Fun fact: I’ve also raised and cared for goats, rabbits, cats, turtles, frogs, and fish. I am a full-time student, but I would love to care for (& walk!) your furry companion(s) in my spare time. I’m a firm believer that the best therapists have wagging tails! I recently adopted a German Shepherd/Labrador Retriever and I can assure you that I will care for your pet with the same enthusiasm and warmth as I do her.

“Dawn was a godsend for us! We had to unexpectedly find arrangements for our dog so we could travel for a funeral, and Dawn responded immediately and was so kind, gracious, and accommodating with our short notice. She not only took care of our dog, but loved on him while we were away, and sent lots of photos and updates. We are so grateful to have found Dawn and Rob to take care of Shadow, and will definitely use them again!”

“My boarding experience with Lauren has been great. I felt really comfortable knowing she was well cared for during my extended trip away. Lauren is easy to communicate with and very responsive. We also do daycare with her and my Yorkie enjoys going back, which says a lot since she’s usually pretty anxious in environments outside of the house. Lauren is very kind and treats my little one like her own, and I really appreciate the care she gives her. We’ve had a great experience overall.”


“My 8 m.o. Bernedoodle was well-loved and cared for by Emma (and her dogs)! Emma was responsive and reliable throughout the process, and I felt exceptionally comfortable having her care for my puppy in her home. I will definitely reschedule with Emma in the future.”

“Rachel was outstanding! She welcomed Kazo into her home with warmth and care, making him feel completely comfortable. Daily updates and photos reassured us he was happy and safe. Her home is clean, pet-friendly, and full of love. Truly dependable, kind, and professional—an exceptional sitter we wholeheartedly recommend!”

“Chad and Cara were great with our senior dog! She was a little anxious to be away from us as we have never used rover before & we were nervous when we left her because she is our baby. They sent pictures and updates every day. Even when our dog decided she wanted to pee in their house (which she never does at home) they were super understanding about it!”

“We are very happy with the care that Angie provided to our dog! He was in great spirits after his weekend stay - it seemed like he had a lot of fun and made some new friends! We also really appreciated the daily updates with photos - it meant a lot to be able to see our guy and know he was doing well while we were gone! We will definitely rebook in the future!”

“We had a great experience with Ellen this past long weekend. She took wonderful care of our goldendoodle and made the whole process easy and stress free. Communication was excellent throughout — we received regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She truly went above and beyond for us. Highly recommend!”

“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!”

“Very accommodating for a last minute booking for our rambunctious two boys. They seemed to be comfortable and had a good time. We also appreciated all of the updates while we were away. Thank you both!”

“Emily was great! I was so afraid to leave my senior dog, who is going blind, in a new environment. He did great! Emily kept me updated and sent me pictures. My dog was in great hands! Can't say enough great things about the experience. Emily was the best!”

“Alexandria did an excellent job with my dog, Pluto! She was very attentive and made me feel very comfortable keeping him! I absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter!”

“My two dogs recently had a weekend visit with Kimberly and they had such a great time. She was very friendly and attentive to their needs. I received plenty of updates with cute photos and videos. I felt very comfortable leaving my fur babies in such great hands. We will be using her services again in the future. Thank you so much! 😊”

“Amazing host and sitter , super nice backyard for dogs to play , super communicative and understanding, i would have these guys watch my pets any day !!”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have taken care of many family members animals a lot. I've had my dog now for almost 2 years, he has pretty bad separation anxiety. My last dog I had for 5 years so I've had long time experience with my own animals as well. I've also had cats plenty of times too. This has taught me to be patient and attentive to dogs who may need extra reassurance, structure, and time to feel comfortable. I’m really comfortable with dogs and walking, feeding, playing, taking potty breaks, and giving dogs plenty of attention. I work 7-4 and my off says are Thursday and Saturday. I can watch anytime on my off says or throughout the week if possible. I come home on my breaks since i live right next door to where I work. I can only watch at my place currently since I do not have transportation. I promise the safety of you're animals I know how important it is since I have a pup of my own.
