“This was my first time leaving my dog Kaci with a sitter, and the pictures and regular updates from Chrissy were so helpful. It was a comfort to know that Kaci was in good hands.”
“Elisheba was wonderful with my dog. She gave me daily updates on how she was doing and sent me fun pictures of the adventures they had while I was gone. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your pet as she has a true love for animals and she will welcome them into her home and take care of them as if it was her own pet.”
“John took great care of our dog, and was excellent to work with. Prompt communication, and he was very accommodating and supportive with an injury our dog has. Highly recommend.”
“Our dog had great care with Caleigh! Great backyard for dogs, good communication, and she did everything she could to make our dog feel comfortable while we were away.”
“Susan is so thoughtful and attentive. It was our first time leaving our boys with her and she did a great job with her communication with us and care of our pugs. We will use her again!”
“Marley had a wonderful time at Lisa's house! We were so nervous to leave Marley as he is so "new" to this world. Lisa was great at sending multiple photos each day to us which gave me the peace to enjoy my time away. Her family loved on Marley too! Highly recommend using Lisa to love on your pet :)”
“Drei had a fantastic time. He was loved and well cared for while we were away. Tasha and Joseph treated Drei as if he was their own and communicated with us daily with pictures. We already have two more trip planned and are planning on continuing with them watching Drei when we are gone”
“We had a last-minute need for a sitter, and Rachel and Nick did a great job of accommodating and taking care of Olive. We got nice daily updates and were confident that she was doing well. And when we were running late in getting back into town, they were able to help with a late schedule change to extend their sitting. We were very happy with the overall service and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”
“Michael and Anne always take great care of our 12 year old lab Brody and we don't worry one bit while we are away. Brody gets plenty of walks and TLC and they put our yoga mats on any hard surface floors as he is afraid of slipping in his old age. He is always happy to go there!”
“I highly highly recommend Karen. She truly loves dogs and knows what she’s doing. We are so grateful that we found her. She took time to meet with us and our dog before his 4 night stay. She made drop off and pick up seemless. She sent pictures and videos every day! Our boy looked genuinely happy in every picture. She even taught him some things! Kyro is a high energy dog and he came home absolutely spent. Karen is amazing.”
“Natalie was fantastic ! Not only did we get daily updates but photos too :-) Our dog Buddy was well taken care of. Not only will we recommend Natalie but we will be using her again next year on our vacay. Thank you Natalie :-)”
“Sandy made the whole experience wonderful for me and my dog. I was traveling by RV and wanted to explore the area but I didn’t want to leave my dog in the RV unattended. I located Sandy on Rover several days before I arrived and she assured me my dog would be safe and happy in her home. Sandy was very welcoming and showed me around her home and yard. I am very pleased and grateful with the service she provided.”
“Michelle is fabulous! I take my Australian Labradoodle to her and she cares so much about him. She goes on daily walks, plays outside with him, and keeps him safe. I feel so comfortable with him being there. Thanks again Michelle! We’ll be back.”
“Elijah was very professional and provided at least one update per day along with photos. Elijah made the whole process very easy; he was quick to respond, very accommodating, and appears to have taken great care of our pup. I would definitely use him for future needs.”
“I can't recommend them enough! They were incredibly accommodating with all of the changes to my surgery dates and made a very stressful time so much easier. Communication was excellent, they were reliable, flexible, and took wonderful care throughout the entire process. I truly appreciated their kindness and professionalism. We'll absolutely be using them again, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone dependable and compassionate!”
“Kathy is Amazing! It was our first visit for my Senior hound Benny. Benny loved her. Kathy is a complete delight. Benny loved that she had a great large fenced yard. Kathy, was so quick to respond and send photos & updates. I highly recommend!”
“Raven was such a lifesaver for us. We went out of town last minute, and she was able to take such amazing care of our dog. We are so grateful and will definitely use her again. 🙂”
“Daisy suffers from Separation Anxiety and needs to be with a person almost all the time. She was so well taken care of by Jenna and her family, she was her normal happy self, when we picked her up. I would definitely board Daisy with Jenna again.”

“Elizabeth checked in on our kitty while I was out of the country for a week. I would absolutely book her again! She was always on time, super friendly and our shy cat loved hanging out with her. It was such good peace of mind having someone so reliable and friendly checking in on the cat, and I can't say enough nice things about her!”
“I liked Chloe the minute I met her. She came over for a pre visit to meet my cats and learn about their routine. Ava and Tucker warmed up to her right away and I knew they would be in good hands. Chloe arrived on schedule for four mornings and five evenings to feed, play with and attend the litter box. When I arrived home from my trip, the house was in order, and everything looked as I left it. I’ll definitely request Chloe again. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”
“This was my first time having Sarah take care of my cats and she did a great job! I loved getting lots of pictures each day and how my fur babies were interacting with her. They are very social and it was important too have someone who would give them the affection they need. They were well taken care of by Sarah!”
“Mark was very patient and understanding with Zeke! It was clear that he has lots of expertise around dogs and is responsive to their needs. Mark also communicated well with me and went above and beyond to care for Zeke! Highly recommend!”
“Jenny is a total sweetheart and went above and beyond for us and our cats while we were away for the weekend. She took on the challenge of getting a cat in and out of a onesie and a cone, and made sure our little guy was well taken care of. I would recommend Jenny to anyone who needs someone to stay at their home or pop in. She is welcome to watch our fur babies anytime!!”
About: We both grew up with dogs and have always loved them. We are proud owners of 2 rescue dogs and love socializing our pups with new dogs and new experiences. Rachel previously volunteer trained service dogs for 4 Paws for Ability. When your pup stays with us, we will spend time playing, walking, running, visiting a local dog park, or cuddling on the couch. We use positive reinforcement to train dogs and correct behavioral issues. We are happy to provide baths if the dog gets dirty with us. Dogs must be up to date on shots. We are mostly available on weekends, since Rachel works as a school counselor during the week and Nick works in finance. We hope you choose us to watch over your precious pups!
“This was the most relaxing trip I have had in a long time. I felt at ease, and if I ever wanted an update or more photos I was quickly accommodated. One of the most professional, reliable, and honorable pet sitting experiences I have had in a long time. 10/10 would book again.”
About: i’ve been around dogs my whole life! my favorite being german shepherds but my love for dogs in general is unconditional. cats are definitely growing on me as well. pets are nothing new to me and i’d love to get to know yours!! I have a somewhat flexible schedule. i am available throughout weekdays as well as weekends.However, I do work and go to college, but i want to dedicate the time i do have to taking care of your pets! i’ve had dogs for pets for as long as i can remember so it’s safe to say your dog and i will get along very well. cats are undeniably drawn to me for some reason and i embrace it every time. i have a fence around my house for my german shepherd, Amelia. i love taking her for walks and i’ll do the same for you dogs. i love cuddling with my girlfriends cats and i’m sure your cats will be very happy to hear they can have some love from me too!
About: I have had at least one dog since I was born as I grew up in an animal loving family. For the past 11+ years I’ve been raising my own pack of three rescue dogs who I’ve trained and raised to be extremely social and friendly. They love making new fur friends. I currently work a regular office job, but am fairly flexible with my schedule and am almost always available on weekends (Friday - Sunday) and evenings. I have a completely fenced in yard and three friendly fur babies of my own that would love nothing more than to befriend and play with your dog(s). I can also do house visits to come to your place and give one on one time with your fur baby and make sure they’re safe and comfortable.
About: I currently work as a veterinary technician and have been in the veterinary medicine field for 6 years. I have worked and care for many cats over the past 6 years. Working in an animal shelter gave me the opportunity to work with cats of all ages and all temperaments. I am fear free certified and utilize those techniques with all animals I interact with. I am comfortable playing with cats using anything that is engaging to them, feeding, medicating, and cleaning the litter box when needed. Please let me know any special needs, behaviors, or quirks for your fur baby- I want them to be as comfortable as possible. Their comfort and yours is of the upmost importance to me. I prefer to meet you and your pet beforehand to ensure safety and it is a good fit!
About: Hi, I’m Nicole! There’s something special about earning the trust of a cat. Dogs often wear their hearts on their sleeves, but cats? They make you work for it—and I absolutely love that. Anyone who has ever truly loved a cat knows that when they finally choose to curl up beside you, greet you at the door, or give you that slow blink of approval, it means something. For more than 20 years, I’ve cared for animals through veterinary clinics, no-kill shelters, SPCAs, rescue organizations, kennels, and animal care facilities. I’ve had the privilege of caring for animals of all ages, personalities, and needs, and throughout my life, people have joked that animals are simply drawn to me. With cats especially, I’ve always had a natural ability to meet them where they are, respect their boundaries, and let the relationship develop at their pace. This isn’t something I’m squeezing into an already busy schedule. This is my career. My availability is intentionally built around the pets I care for, which means your cat receives my full attention, flexibility, and commitment. Every visit is designed as a boutique, concierge experience, thoughtfully tailored to your family’s routine and your cat’s unique personality, preferences, and needs. Cats are wonderfully independent, endlessly entertaining, and unapologetically particular—and that’s exactly why I love them. Some want to conquer a feather wand, some prefer to supervise the neighborhood from their favorite window for an afternoon of “Cat TV,” and others are happiest exploring climbing spaces or their own little “cat superhighways” around the house. If you’re a Jackson Galaxy fan like I am, you know that enrichment isn’t a luxury—it’s essential. And then there are the food critics. 😂 Whether your cat insists on a very specific blend of wet and dry food, expects the exact ratio mixed just right, or believes breakfast should have been served five minutes ago because, after all, we’re merely their loyal hoomans, I’m happy to honor every little routine. Those wonderfully quirky habits are part of what makes each cat unique, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know them. Whether we’re engaging in interactive play, providing mental enrichment, keeping routines consistent, administering medications, or simply sharing quiet companionship on their terms, my goal is always the same: to make your cat feel safe, mentally stimulated, understood, respected, and genuinely happy while you’re away. I don’t want to be someone who simply refills a food bowl and scoops a litter box. I want to become someone your cat recognizes, trusts, and eventually chooses to spend time with—while giving you absolute peace of mind knowing they’re being cared for with the same love, patience, and devotion I give my own pets.
About: I’ve loved cats since I was a child and carried the responsibility of taking care of them since I was 8 years old. I have pet sit for dear friends and family, and taken care of up t 3 cats at a time. I love their mysterious lives and individual personalities.

“Michael was great! He asked questions to know Rosie better. He kept in touch with us before her daycare date. During her stay he kept us up to date & sent pictures. We would definitely recommend them & would schedule with them again if we visit the area. It was a perfect situation for our Rosie! Thanks, Michael!”
About: I've had at least two dogs my entire life. I've cared for puppies through adult dogs. I have even cared for some with special needs. When your dog stays with me, you also get my whole family to care for them. I'm a stay at home mom and I have plenty of time to care for your baby. I can be with your dog at all times. I have a fenced in yard and three dogs who would love to play and snuggle. I will also walk your dog if you'd like.
About: My family loves animals and we would love to take in your pet for the day! We have a dog park and love to go on walks during the evening. Cats are also welcome as we love to snuggle them ❤️. Your pets will be safe and loved in our care and I am able to communicate with you over phone as much as you need during their stay. We currently just moved from an apartment to a townhome so we have a bit more space now for the animals to lounge around and play! I’m a full time at home mom! Taking care of animals makes me so happy. I always hoped to go into Veterinary medicine one day. Right now I have all the free time in the world to take care of your pets when needed ❤️ Pets will be able to run and play in our home. Feeding will depend on how often you need me to feed. Potty breaks often. Dog park on days with nice weather or walks through the trails in our neighborhood!
“What a delight! Senator had a wonderful time with Mindy and canine babies. Mindy was so kind and ready to spend time with him. He was exhausted afterward, but….that’s a compliment. Hope to visit again soon.”
About: I’ve been involved with dog rescue for many years. I worked with virtually every type of dog there is. From shy, timid to very high energy. I’ve had dogs that had aggression issues. I worked with dogs on leash training, housebreaking, and socialization. I am retired. I have nothing but time on my hands! I volunteer Thursday mornings at an equine therapy barn. But I will still have time to take care of animals on Thursdays. I am open to caring for dogs in my home. But! They have to be dog and cat friendly. I would prefer not to have younger dogs, only because my dogs are older and don’t like young dogs, jumping all over them. My dogs are very dog friendly though. My cats are very dog friendly. In fact, they prefer dogs over our cats!
“This was my first try at rover and I am so thankful Karen was able to be our first experience. I have only depended on family for care in the past but now am thankful I can find amazing people like Karen to help me when I’m in a pickle! She was so sweet and welcoming!”
“Alij is such a sweet and caring sitter. She kept me updated and made me feel comfortable while I was away from my dogs. I’m so grateful for the great care she gave them, and I’ll definitely be booking her again.”
“Paige was absolutely amazing! From the moment we dropped off our pup, we felt confident that she was in great hands. Paige has a wonderful, open space where the dogs can safely run and play, and she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. It gave us such peace of mind to see how happy and well cared for our dog was. We’re so pleased with the experience that we’ve already booked with her again. We highly recommend Paige to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
About: Hi my name is Patrice. I'm a veterinary technician who loves being with animals even outside of my normal work day. If I could I would adopt a million pets but unfortunately that's not an option. I take pride in being able to help care for pets outside of my own. There's nothing more fulfilling than being able to play with fur babies when the owners cannot do so because of work. I am able to provide exercise time, medication administration, ear cleaning, and basic grooming. If you are in need of any of the above services feel free to reach out to me. I would love to get to know you and your fur babies and develop a life long bond. Pet care fits into my daily routine perfectly. I'm always with pets even in my dreams. Rather I am walking pets or meeting up for grooming appointments, I'm always with pets. I get a background of the pets home life and mimic that while they are with me. Routine works best with most pets. When you switch up what they are used to they do not do well.
About: My husband and I are a team who absolutely love caring for dogs! I’ve been around dogs since I was 12, and he’s been around dogs and animals his entire life. Together, we’ve spent years raising and loving our own three sweet fur babies. We know how important patience, kindness, and consistency are when it comes to caring for pups. Whether your dog is shy and sensitive or full of energy and playfulness, we’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. We treat every dog like part of our family! Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily life since I work from home. I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day — whether it’s regular walks, play breaks, feeding, or just being there to offer comfort and company. My husband and I coordinate our schedules so there’s always someone home, meaning your dog will never be left alone and will always have company, care, and lots of love. In my home, pets have plenty of space to feel comfortable and relaxed. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a fully fenced yard—perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Inside, we have a spacious 4-bedroom house where dogs can explore, nap, or cuddle up wherever they feel most at home. We provide a calm, loving environment with consistent routines, personalized attention, and lots of affection. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, we make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved.
About: Hi! I'm Elijah and I'd love to care for your dogs whether you're going on vacation or simply need a sitter for the day. As of August 2026, I finished nursing school and will be doing Rover full-time until I take my NCLEX test to officially become a licensed nurse! I have one dog of my own, a 9-year-old miniature schnauzer named Winston, along with two rabbits and a leopard gecko. My partner has two dogs of his own as well, a labrador named Nina and a shih-tzu mix named Lucky—both of them being seniors at ages 13 and 15! We live in a 2 bedroom house with a medium sized, fenced in backyard. I have gates and areas of the house that can easily be secluded if your pet would do better with limited access to other animals. I'm experienced with dogs of all ages ranging from puppies to seniors. Our dogs are all easy-going, surprisingly playful for their ages, and get along with other animals very well (although I'll still do introductions slowly and safely). Since graduating college, my schedule is quite literally free 24/7! As mentioned before, Rover will be my full-time job until I get to take my NCLEX and become a licensed nurse. This means your dog will have my full attention and rarely, if at all, be left alone! The animals in my home are left alone for very little time each week. If guest animals have to be left alone, I have gates along with two rooms I can secure the guest pet in if need be! If you utilize a crate, you can bring that as well for me to use if this is how your pet is normally kept while left alone.
“excellent caregiver, she cares for the pets, she has her house equipped so that our pets have a great time. I recommend it. Thank you very much for taking care of Wyatt. He always kept me informed about my pet and how well he was having a good time. thanks kimberly”
“We had some rocky communication difficulties in the beginning due to the app, but aside from that everything was great! Shanikka took great care of Daphne and sent me many photos and updates throughout the day. It was hard for me to find someone who was willing and able to watch such a young puppy and I’m very appreciative of Shanikka and her family. I will definitely be booking again in the future!”
“David was great with Myles. He is already going to potty outside after just a week of training with David. I can already see a difference with his behavior and his separation anxiety and also the way he interacts with other dogs. His personality is starting to shine now. I think after a few more weeks of training Myles is going to be in great shape.”
About: I love dogs and usually bond quickly. I have experience with special diet dogs, elderly dogs, etc. I am like a dog chaplain. I will care for your dog (and home if needed) as I do my own. I work in an industry that requires back ground checks. I have cared for since childhood: German Shepherds, Rabbits, Chows, Rottweiler, Labs, Shih Tzu, Schnauzers, Terriers, rabbits, fish, etc. I'm available at various times with notice. If I am requested for in home care I will care for your home as my own. I look forward to supporting you in any way that I can. Blessings. I’m home all day a few days per week. However, I can do drop ins and house sitting daily. Morning, Afternoon and Evening walks are provided when in boarding or daycare. Weekend stays include park time and long walks. I have a sweet smaller dog whom is very loving and after getting to know your dog will treat them like a sibbling. It is important that your dog be okay with being crated only at night or if I need to run a close errand. Otherwise dogs welcome on couch etc.
About: I am over the top when it comes to animals. I typically go above and beyond in play and in care. I love to groom them, go hiking or on extended walks and cuddle! I am currently a nursing student who is trying to make extra money so I can stop working during clinicals. Also I have a small child that I could always use extra money for! In my home pets will be in a shared space with toys and activities. I will walk pets every 4-6 hours and will groom both cats and dogs if i see fit (not full groom but wipe eyes, paws, etc) I also enjoy going to the park so if possible i would love to take them to a park near your home or my own

“Brie is an animal pro! My dog, Cora, loves her and Brie has been a Godsend for me as I continue my rehab. Cora loves her walks with Brie, and will actually wait at the door when I tell her she is coming to get her. Thx Brie!”
About: Grew up with dogs. Haven’t had as many dogs as cats as they required more attention than cats and Rover didn’t exist when I was younger. I had 3 dogs in my young adult life over the course of 30 years. Currently we have a 9 year old pittie rescue and she is well cared for. I’m recently retired so my schedule is very flexible. Rover has made it possible for us to travel with peace of mind that our pets would be cared for. So I figured it would be a good fit as a retirement job and now I can give others the same peace of mind. The retired lifestyle has left me very flexible for going to people’s homes to help with their cat and dog maintenance while they travel. Currently not looking to offer in home services.
About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, bearded dragons, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, etc. I look forward to caring for your pet and treating them like my own! I’m working part time at the moment and have flexible hours, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet on a schedule that works for you! I make sure to keep the dog’s schedule as typical as possible and I listen to any instructions that the owner may have for me.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a cat and a 3 year old pit/cattle dog mix. I have owned multiple dogs over the years, including reactive dogs, which gave me hands on experience with different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I worked closely with a professional trainer in the past and gained a lot of confidence in handling and understanding dogs of all kinds. Because my entire family has dogs, I’m constantly around animals and genuinely love spending time caring for them. I understand that every pet is different and that some are energetic and social, while others need patience, structure, and a calm approach. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just having a comforting presence around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away! I currently work full time Monday-Friday from 7-4, however I am fully remote and my job is relatively flexible. Working from home makes life easy as I can bring my laptop anywhere, (with your permission) and work while attending to your fur babies ☺️. I am fully available on weekends and most holidays as well! While I’d love to welcome every pet into my home, I have a reactive dog of my own, so I currently only offer care in clients’ homes through drop ins, walks, and house sitting. The safety and comfort of your pets and mine will always come first 💕
About: I’ve helped out with family pets my entire life (dogs, cats fish, guinea pigs, birds, rats) but in my early 20’s rescued a Doberman/blue heeler mix on my own. He is high anxiety and medicated twice daily for epileptic seizures, so medicine is also something I’m comfortable with. I also now have a Maine coon cat who is 10, a 3 yr old shepherd, cane corso, mastiff mix with 3 paws and a 3 yr old golden/ Pyrenees mix. I work daytime hours MWF, so I’m available for drop ins before and/or after work on those days. On T/TH, I’m available for drop ins or walks during the morning and afternoons :) For the care and safety of both the clients pets and my own, I would prefer to care for clients pets in their own homes.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with pets and even adopted my own dog in college. I bring years of hands-on experience and genuine care to every pet I look after. I’m currently available most days of the week and would be happy to find a schedule that works best for your dog’s routine, comfort, and care. I am a part-time student and will be starting classes this fall, so I’ll be unavailable on Tuesdays from 10:00 AM–2:30 PM and Thursdays from 10:00 AM– 4:30 PM. Outside of those class hours, my schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to coordinate a time that works best for both you and your pup. I treat every pet like my own. I love taking the time to get to know each animal, understand their personality, and learn what activities they enjoy the most.
About: I am open and able to care for many different pets with a variety of unique needs. Old or young they will all receive the proper care they deserve and be loved as my own I am free anytime all you have to do is ask. I have a very flexible schedule and am able to adapt to what is necessary I have a fenced in yard and a great area to take walks in. There is a park closeby to my house and it's overall just a great and safe environment.
About: My family has had dogs since before I was born! I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and know how to take care of fur babies of all ages :) Almost four years ago I adopted my first cat. Fast forward to today, I am now a mother of two orange special needs kitties. They are my world 🌎 ❤️🐾 I currently work part time and go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On school days, class starts at 9 and I will have an hour and a half between classes to let a pet out to go to the bathroom, feed them, or give them medication. Then I have another class from 1-3. After that, I will be totally free to assist any pets. I also work part time 3-4 days when I do not have school. These are usually 6-8 hour shifts, but I can adjust feedings/walking/medication administration around these times. And when in doubt, I have several well regarded Rover friends that are willing to help out on my longer shifts, with client approval. :-) I have space to keep a crate for overnight visits and live in an apartment complex with some green space to walk and explore. I am also only a few minutes away from five different parks, so lots of options to check out. I have two cats that are dog friendly, but can be separated if the dog is not cat friendly !
About: I’ve had dogs since I can remember. I’ve just recently introduced a cat into our dog family and it’s been such a pleasure caring for my babies. I would love to do the same for someone else! I am available at the moment to work any day weekday and weekend, I currently have no restrictions to when I can not do it. I enjoy doing enrichment activities with the animals and playing with them to stimulate their mind. I also like to cuddle with my dogs whenever they want chill time.
About: For my entire life, I have grown up with a dog in my family home. I have experienced first hand how to care for a 2 month old puppy and a 13 year old senior dog. Since the age of 16, I have also watched family friends dogs, either doing overnight stays or routinely check-ins with the dogs. As a graduate student, I have classes on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. On those days, your pup may be home for a few hours while I’m in class, but I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and potty breaks before I leave and as soon as I return. Outside of my class schedule, I have a flexible routine and spend most of my time at home, so I’ll be able to provide lots of companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow all of your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any other special care your pet needs. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel the most comfortable. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I love cleaning and doing daily chores, so that will never be a problem for me! I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. My priority is making sure both you and your pet have peace of mind.
About: Hello my name is Mindy. I am currently looking for pet sitting and dog walking jobs in and near Cincinnati. My primary job is mental health therapist, because of the demands of working in the mental health field, I want to be around animals working part time, for my own self-care. Being around animals makes me content and relaxed and I love making animals relaxed and happy as well. I have a lot of experience, especially with dogs and cats, both personally and professionally. I had my own dog for 14 years until she passed away in 2023, now i own two cats. I also have worked in a kennel, i have worked for dog walking companies, and have worked for Wag! I understand how stressful it can be leaving your animals in the hands of others, and this is why I take such good care of others babies :) I would love to help you and your pets whenever you need me! Services And Training: I have experience with walking, over night sitting, feeding, refreshing water, administering medications when needed, and cuddles :) I work part time and make my own schedule, so I have a lot of availability to help you out whether it be walks, check ins, or overnight stays. I will first ask you many questions about safety, behavior, etc before coming into your home to petsit. I do not currently accept animals at my own home, because I have cats and no fences yard. Any wishes of the owner I will do my best to accommodate.
About: Hi, I’m Nicole! For me, pet care has never been a side job—it’s always been part of who I am. For more than 20 years, I’ve volunteered with veterinary clinics, no-kill shelters, SPCAs, rescue organizations, kennels, and dog daycares, caring for animals of every age, breed, personality, and need. Throughout my life, people have joked that animals are simply drawn to me, and honestly, it’s one of the greatest compliments I could receive. Building trust with them comes naturally, and there’s nothing more rewarding than watching an anxious dog relax, a shy dog gain confidence, or an excited pup light up when they realize it’s time for our next adventure. After spending years as a Business Operations Manager, my company unexpectedly closed after 108 years in business. Rather than simply finding another corporate job, I decided to follow the passion that’s been in my heart all along—devoting my time to caring for animals. This isn’t something I’m squeezing into an already busy schedule. This is my career. My availability is intentionally built around the pets I care for, which means your dog receives my full attention, flexibility, and commitment. Every service I provide is designed as a boutique, concierge experience, thoughtfully tailored to your family’s routine and your pet’s unique personality, needs, and happiness at every turn. Whether we’re exploring a trail, playing enrichment games, keeping routines consistent while you’re away, or simply sharing quiet companionship, my goal is always the same: to make your pet feel safe, understood, loved, and genuinely excited to see me every time I arrive. I don’t want to be someone who just walks your dog or checks a box on your to-do list. I want to become someone your pet trusts, looks forward to, and feels completely comfortable with—while giving you absolute peace of mind knowing they’re being cared for with the same love, patience, and devotion I give my own dogs, Bubba and Pippa, who are truly family to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I fit into my day—it’s what I intentionally make time for. Every service I provide is personalized and thoughtfully tailored to both your pet and your family’s unique routine, preferences, and lifestyle. I take the time to understand what makes your companion feel safe, happy, and comfortable while also making your time away as stress-free as possible. Whether it’s adventure walks, enrichment, puppy or kitten guidance, medication administration, senior support, transportation, or simply maintaining familiar routines, every visit is designed around your pet’s individual needs. My goal is to become a trusted extension of your family, providing dependable, compassionate care and giving you complete peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and emotional well-being will always be my highest priorities. Every service I provide is thoughtfully personalized—not just for your pet, but for your entire family. I take time to learn your routines, preferences, house rules, training methods, and expectations so my care feels like a seamless extension of your own. I strictly follow all pet parent instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise limitations, behavioral cues, crate or free-roam preferences, and any special care needs. Consistency helps pets feel secure, so I strive to maintain the routines they’re already comfortable with. For exercise and enrichment, I carefully choose safe, pet-friendly environments. Depending on your comfort level and your pet’s personality, adventures may include favorite neighborhood walking routes, trusted dog parks, nature trails, or supervised play on a private, family-owned seven-acre property with large, securely fenced areas where dogs can safely explore, sniff, and play. Every outing is tailored to your pet’s age, temperament, energy level, and training. Whether I’m caring for an energetic puppy, a curious cat, a senior companion, or a pet with medical or behavioral needs, I prioritize patience, positive reinforcement, enrichment, and careful observation. You’ll receive thoughtful updates, photos, videos, and honest communication after every visit because I know you’re trusting me with a beloved member of your family. My goal is never to simply “watch” your pet—it’s to become a trusted, familiar friend they genuinely look forward to seeing while giving you complete confidence that they’re receiving the same love, attention, and care I’d give my own.
“My dog chewed up some food left in the Pantry as we are trying to leave him out of the cage more.. she cleaned everything up!! She is awesome. My dog is skittish at first and she was very gentle and slow with him until he warmed up. Thank you again!”
About: I have a little over 3 years of experience caring for my friends and family’s dogs. They have entrusted me in walking their furbabies when they are unable to, feed and bathe them while they are away, and watch them for extended periods of time. I am currently available Monday-Friday after 4 pm to walk your dogs, or check in on them and feed them if you are away. Weekends I have an open Availability. And for extended stays I am available whenever. I do have a full time job however, I work 10 mins up the road and can check in on the dogs while on break. I live in a gated community and we have plenty of outdoor space to walk your dogs or let them out for some freedom. I do have a 7 yr old son who loves to play and entertain dogs.& I have a cage available if need be however they are free to roam the house.
About: I currently work as a veterinary technician and have been in the veterinary medicine field for six years. Growing up, I had a feisty miniature dachshund and a goofy golden retriever. When I moved out, I got my own dynamic duo over the years- a chihuahua mix (Brulee- like the dessert crème Brulee) and three years later an Australian shepherd mix (muffin). Brulee was a very opinionated and particular girl while muffin is a gentle soul and afraid of her own shadow. I am fear free certified and have been since I entered the vet med field, it is something that is very important to me and I practice it with every animal I interact with. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages. If they have special needs, behaviors, or quirks please tell me everything- I want to know all about your pet! Their comfort as well as yours is of the upmost importance to me. I love taking dogs on walks and hikes, allowing them to set the tone and pace- if they want to speed walk, we can do that or if they want to take a leisurely stroll sniffing every blade of grass that is fine too. I will keep your dog leashed the entire time we are out of the house, unless we are in an enclosed backyard. I do not take dogs to dog parks, unless have a well-established recall and if you request me to. However your pet wants to play, I am game- we can play ball, tug of war, hide and seek, or treat puzzles- whatever gets them excited! I am happy to medicate and feed your pet as needed. I prefer to meet you and your fur baby beforehand to ensure safety and it is a good fit! I currently work from home full time and pick up shifts at clinics when I can. My schedule hours vary so I can be available at normal or obscure hours. As long as we can find a window to make it work, I am happy to be flexible for you and your fur baby! I will care for your pets and home like I care for my own. If your pet has specific needs or if you have special requests, I will do my best to fulfill them to keep you and your pup happy, safe, and comfortable!

I also love to take dogs dogs for hikes and allow them to explore nature and creeks, especially on the those hot days. It prices to be rewarding and stimulating for able animals to spend time beneath the trees.

I’m an early bird and love to stay busy!

“Our dog had great care with Caleigh! Great backyard for dogs, good communication, and she did everything she could to make our dog feel comfortable while we were away.”
“Melissa and her family were absolutely wonderful. They watched our boy for 5 days when we had to travel for a wedding! Pickup and drop off was a breeze. Melissa was always prompt with her responses and kept us posted with pictures! We don't leave him very often so he is quite anxious with strangers but meeting Melissa and her girls made us feel comfortable to leave him. I would definitely drop him off with her anytime! Thanks Melissa!”
“Susan is so thoughtful and attentive. It was our first time leaving our boys with her and she did a great job with her communication with us and care of our pugs. We will use her again!”

“We had a last-minute need for a sitter, and Rachel and Nick did a great job of accommodating and taking care of Olive. We got nice daily updates and were confident that she was doing well. And when we were running late in getting back into town, they were able to help with a late schedule change to extend their sitting. We were very happy with the overall service and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”
“Michael and Anne always take great care of our 12 year old lab Brody and we don't worry one bit while we are away. Brody gets plenty of walks and TLC and they put our yoga mats on any hard surface floors as he is afraid of slipping in his old age. He is always happy to go there!”

She made drop off and pick up seemless. She sent pictures and videos every day! Our boy looked genuinely happy in every picture. She even taught him some things! Kyro is a high energy dog and he came home absolutely spent. Karen is amazing.”

I located Sandy on Rover several days before I arrived and she assured me my dog would be safe and happy in her home. Sandy was very welcoming and showed me around her home and yard. I am very pleased and grateful with the service she provided.”
