“As always, our dog had a great time with Joe and Tasha. He had some recent medical issues and they dealt with it as if he was their own. Can’t say enough about how great they are for boarding!”
“Kimberley did an amazing job keeping us updated with a lot of detail and photos of our dogs! One of ours is a mill rescue who needs a lot of extra patience and care and Kimberley did an excellent job accommodating her and helping her adjust. Would recommend!!”

“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.”
“Bradley was amazing with Chinook and Apache! They had a great time during their stay—Bradley kept me updated with plenty of pictures, and the boys looked so happy when I picked them up. Now they’re both passed out asleep at home, which tells me they had a fun and active time! I’ll definitely be booking with Bradley again. Highly recommend!”
“Dion is a wonderful, responsible caregiver. He is kind and thinks of all safety contingencies. He is the kind of caregiver that one wants to have. And he loves dogs and has a very nice one. Our small pup Susie has fears of thunderstorms and also of being touched in certain ways, and Dion quickly won her over. He even took her on three walks per day. I can’t recommend anyone more highly. If/when we go away on a trip, he will be our go-to person.”
“Alycia is absolutely wonderful with my dog, Archie! 🐶 She is dependable, caring, and treats him like her own. I never have to worry when Archie is with her—he’s always happy, well cared for, and loved. It gives me such peace of mind knowing Alycia is there for him. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets!”

“Ainura was absolutely amazing! I had to find a sitter for my new puppy on very short notice and she responded super fast and accepted the job. It was my first time using the Rover app and I’m so grateful it worked out so well. She took incredible care of little Khaleesi and sent loads of photos showing her playing and having a great time for the week. I’m definitely reaching out to Ainura next time I need a sitter :)”
“Jenny and her family and dog were wonderful hosts for our dog Gretel. Gretel got walks and affection and seemed very comfortable there. A very responsible and caring host. We will be happy to have Gretel stay with them again.”
“Jessica is great! My old dog is a bit needy and she was so sweet, meeting him where he’s at and not complaining about giving him extra attention. My kids and I all loved that she sent daily updates with photos. We will definitely check in with Jessica next time we need a sitter!”
About: Hi! I’m Kristen! I come packed full of dog walking and pet sitting experience. During my 3 years in Chicago, I walked dogs of all shapes & sizes on a regular basis during my lunch breaks, with my most loyal clients being a Boston Terrier and a Wolf-hybrid. Before then, I worked with Cincy Dog Walkers 4-5 days a week for 5 months back in 2018, caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, energy levels, and behaviors. I’m also a huge cat-lover, as I especially miss my family cat back home. Loyalty, integrity, good communication and positivity are all values and characteristics I hold myself strictly to -all of which you can guarantee from me. Your pets will be in great hands with me as their caretaker! Feel free to ask me any questions. I’m currently working from home on a Central Time-based schedule, therefore I have open availability in the morning, lunch time, and in the evenings. Due to my flexible schedule, I’m open to moving things around to best fit your needs! In my home, I have a crate that can fit most dogs. I have a fenced-in yard, and live in a great neighborhood for walking!
“Amir took great care of our dog over the weekend! He was knowledgeable and thoughtful regarding the needs of our dog and made sure that he had the best care and experience. I would definitely recommend Amir to any other pet owners to care for their pets!”

“Ashley was absolutely amazing! She was super communicative and listened to all my pets’ needs. She made me feel at ease when I was away from my cats. She goes the extra mile to make sure my place is neat and my cats are happy!”
“I had a great experience working with Emma! She took great care of my kitties and helped give medication to one of them, while also monitoring her condition and keeping me updated every day. It really gave me peace of mind. The kitties are happy to see her again!”
“Jill was amazing! She followed the instructions for our cats perfectly and it gave us a lot of peace of mind while away. Sent plenty of pictures - would definitely book again!”
“I will always book Hannah! I have a cat who is super picky with humans. She adores Hannah. After the first day, when I saw my little void snuggling up to her, I knew I would always go to Hannah to take care of my two babes. 100% recommend!”
“We hired Brendan to stay at our house for our week long trip to watch our Orange Tabby, Popsicle. We had a list of things we wanted him to do on a daily basis for Popsicle and he was diligent in following that list. We received a morning and evening photo and corresponding with Brendan was very easy. Brendan cares deeply for being on time and being responsible and was certainly a professional pet sitter for our cat who we love so much.”
“Jeff was excellent at taking care of our four cats. Responsive and punctual. He left everything clean and sent us photos daily. He went the extra mile to feed our wild birds. I recommend him for all your pet needs.”
“Chloe is awesome! We got lucky, this was our first time using this app & our first time having any pet sitter outside of family. She was attentive, responsive, & so friendly! We are grateful!”
About: What sets me apart is my experience and flexibility. I started pet sitting in college and have always loved caring for animals. Now that I work locally with summer hours ending before 5, I’m able to offer reliable drop-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I treat every pet like my own and understand how important consistency and trust are for pet owners Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I work in Hyde Park, so I’m already in the area during the week. On Wednesdays I’m off at 1, Thursdays at 2, and Fridays I’m off all day, which gives me plenty of flexibility. I care for pets like they’re part of the family. My own dogs are definitely spoiled — we have a 10.5-year-old Lab/Collie mix and recently adopted a 1-year-old Chihuahua mix — so I’m used to caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and comfort to help them feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away
“Suzanne did a drop in visit with our two cats while we were away for the weekend. She was great to work with and I would absolutely rebook with her! I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs :)”
About: Ever since my parents let me get a dog I’ve been a dog lover ever since! I’m excited to be that friendly face that pets need. I just got a cat of my own and love her to death- so I’m a new cat lover! I’m reliable and willing to do what you need for your pet :) I’m a nurse so I work 3 shifts a week! On my off days I like to workout and go for walks so it’s the perfect opportunity to take your dog out for a walk or do a drop-in visit In my own home I have two doodles and I’ve grown to love them and their personalities. When friends or family would go out of town I am easily availble to walk, feed, and care for a dog. I follow instructions well and I’m easy to get along with and trust!
“Anna was awesome with my chi! She was here on time and sent the cutest pictures. I felt comfortable leaving my pup in her care. I will definitely be rebooking!”
“Nina did a great job with my little one. She asked so many questions that I honestly hadn't even given a ton of thought to during her first visit! Seemed like that had a great visit and I would book her again in a heartbeat.”
“Lauren and Wynn were great. I booked them close to my trip date and they were able to squeeze me into their schedule. Prompt responses during booking and they sent several pics during each visit. Would definitely use them again.”
“Victoria watched our older cat, Lucky, while we were on vacation. She was highly communicative, very caring, and sent great photos of a cat that’s pretty shy. I’d highly recommend her. We came home to a very happy kitty!”

“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”

About: I’m currently studying to be a vet assistant. Since I was a kid I’ve loved animals and have accumulated lots of knowledge over the years. I’ve been trusted to care for many family pets. I’m very calm and patient, and I’m excited to have the opportunity to care for your pets as well! I’m currently working part-time, early mornings. Mid-week, afternoons and weekends are the best times for me to care for and play with your babies! I live in a very quiet home and a very quiet neighborhood. We can sit and relax while I knit or easily walk down to the nearby observatory, park, or town square.
“My puppy enjoyed the day playing with Brandon and his friendly pets. Brandon was reliable, responsive, worked well with my puppy’s energy level, and sent me a lot of updates during the day. We will be back.”
About: I’ve been around and cared for animals for over 20 years and truly enjoy being around them. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with different personalities — from energetic pups to more anxious or senior pets. I offer walks, drop-in visits, and boarding in my home. I do have a cat, and he is used to being around dogs, but I always prioritize safety and comfort for everyone. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal like they’re part of the family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home and structure my schedule intentionally, so I’m able to provide consistent walks, feeding times, and attention throughout the day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks or drop-ins, and when boarding, pets are rarely left alone for long periods. I value routine and make sure each pet’s normal schedule is maintained to help them feel comfortable and secure. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood with my son (7 YO) and our cat, Toto. While our backyard is not fenced, dogs are always leashed for outdoor time and walks. We have great sidewalks and a quiet area that’s ideal for daily exercise. Inside the home, I provide a calm and supervised environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s comfort level and always prioritize safety, clear communication with owners, and following specific care instructions. I’m also happy to schedule meet-and-greets beforehand to ensure everyone feels confident.
“Lauren was amazing! HIGHLY recommend.. she checked in throughout the day with pictures and Nero was out several times throughout the day! She was accommodating to my schedule as well:)”
About: Hi! I’m Jenna — a recent transplant from a Colorado to Cincinnati, and a dog mom of one little munchkin. I know how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, as I used to travel tons! So my goal now that I can care for others is to make both you and your pup feel totally at ease. I’ve cared for dogs on and off the Rover platform of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, from easygoing seniors to high-energy walkers who need a good workout. I’m super detail oriented & therefore very attentive to routines — feeding schedules, walk preferences, medication instructions, and any quirks that make your dog your dog. You can expect regular photo and video updates, clear communication, and a calm, responsible approach to care. I treat every dog like they’re my own, which means I’m a great fit if you’re looking for someone dependable, communicative, and genuinely invested in your dog’s well-being. I’m happy to do a meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a good match! Looking forward to meeting you and your pup 🐾 Im in the office during the week, but regularly free on nights & weekends for support when you have other life commitments. My own dog, Nash, is home when I’m at work and we can arrange crate time or separate rooms if staying overnight. I'm available to take your dog out on long walks, play fetch in the backyard, or just keep them company for a break in their day. Whatever works for your dog works for me!
About: Early 40’s year old sitter/walker with car. You could say I have 40+ years of experience. My family had a German Shepherd from before I was born and I was very close to her. There has been a stream of pets in my family. Including so so so many cats in NYC. Even going so far as to “rescue” a half feral one. Currently, I share ownership of a dog. As a small business owner of over 10 years, I am able to have a flexible schedule and spend more time hanging out with your pet(s). That said, I have a lot of experience managing other people, and I do have high expectations for clear communication from clients. I have never had a complaint from clients that already have human children. I am very clear about the kind of care I offer. For example, I clearly state I can do 4-8 hrs for letting out. That does not mean that when I get to the sit, you tell me you expect every hour. I also do not cancel other bookings so that you can be the sole client. I have been through that, obliged, and the client was still dissatisfied. I am running a business and the new owner of this app runs on harsh algorithms that hide you in search. Let’s try to be better and more human, than conforming to private equity and their bottom line. For the fur babies, I can follow their diet and pet or play or brush their hair. As long as you give me a list or schedule, I'll do my best to provide it. I have extensive experience with pets at all stages of life. (As well as other kinds of pets which I am open to caring for.) I understand the care required for a wide variety of needs and can do my best to provide reinforcement on current training, but I am not going to be attuned right off the jump to the nuances noticed by your trainer or you... I can reinforce sit, lay down, paw, stay, heel, rollover, or anything else. I can administer medicine. I am not formally trained in pet CPR, but I am trained in human CPR and have looked at videos for pet CPR. When I was younger I worked as a lifeguard, and have a remarkable natural ability to stay calm and act fast in crisis situations. This comes in handy, for example: when protecting my maltipoo from other dogs, managing territorial behavior, or keeping one dog out of another dog’s bowl. My schedule is flexible and I have a car. I have a small business and partial responsibility of my dog, so I do need to be able to run errands, go to meetings, or check in at home to keep that part of my life running. For extended care, and distance further than 5 miles, I prefer be given the option to stay over at clients for the sake of gas costs, time, and energy. First meeting and approach are important to setting a precedent, I first see if the pet will approach me. I like to offer my hand palm down for them to smell. Sometimes it takes a few times smelling the hand before they feel comfortable letting me pet them. In my opinion it’s important not to mess up first impressions with the pet. Spending time together builds familiarity bonds, being attentive builds trust. It’s important to build rapport.
“Akita is professional, very responsive and amazing! My fur baby felt at home immediately. He even ate his food which he never does when he’s away from home. She was so accommodating and did such a wonderful job taking him on plenty of walks and potty breaks! He was so excited for day 2 daycare. I’m so happy I found a forever sitter for my baby! Thank you Akita!”
“Jonathan was super responsive and willing to do a meet and greet with us. Our dog can be nervous around bigger dogs, so this was really helpful. We were able to do a short 3-hour daycare soon after and really appreciated all of the updates that Jonathan shared throughout Penny's visit. Thanks, Jonathan!”
About: I grew up on a dairy farm and have always had cats and dogs around. My kids are excited to learn some responsibility through animal care along with my supervision and spend time with dogs. Recently retired from corporate world and children expressed interest in dog walking/boarding. Good opportunity to walk and teach children lessons in pet care while spending time bonding with dogs. We have a fully fenced backyard in addition to a bonus room that the animal would stay in while boarded. My children and I would show a lot of care and attention to your pet.
“This will be the third week in a row that my Roxxie will be attending doggy day care with her two new dog friends in Nancy’s home. It’s so amazing that I can go to work and not have to worry at all if my dogs being well cared for. Nancy is the best!”
“Ryan was wonderful with my two dachshunds. Boarded them during the day while we had workers installing new carpet. Sent pics and videos so I had no worries. They came home tired and happy. Would hire Ryan 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!”
“Leo went to his first daycare with Katie and he loved it! She greeted him at the door and welcomed him and made sure the other pups were away so he wouldn't be overwhelmed walking in. He loved it and can't wait for his next stay! He was definitely tuckered out from all the fun he had playing with the other pups. You can tell Katie knows how to handle things and is a dog-lover. We're so glad we found her!”

About: I’ve taken care of many cats and dogs of my own and for friends and family for many many years. I have raised cats and dogs as young as 6 weeks as well as trained them. I love meeting new fluffy friends of all kinds! I have a job as a barista and typically work there 5 days a week so my schedule is very flexible. My availability is ever changing so feel free to ask! I have a 20 lb shetland golden retriever mix that loves to play, is very well mannered, and gets along with dogs of all sizes! I have a walking trail near where I live that I typically walk my dog and the ones I sit. I also love to take pups to Riverside to walk. If I am attending to another persons home i’ve always been raised with the idea of “leave it better than you found it”. If there are indoor cats I pay close attention to detail to make sure they don’t accidentally get out.
“On short notice Stephanie was able to walk my dog (Megan) several days in a row. She was great with Megan & they bonded immediately. Stephanie was comfortable in caring for Megan.. Megan had so much fun walking with Stephanie that I have already scheduled several walking dates with Stephanie in September.”
“Wonderful dog walker. She is honest and does her best to take care of your dogs. You literally can’t go wrong with Anna. She works hard and puts all her love into taking care of our doggos. I am new to Cincinnati and it’s great to find someone I can trust to come to my house and take care of my best friend like family.”
“Kristen is super nice & reliable!! Communication is very good, she keeps us posted & sends us pictures during the walk (which is a nice pick me up during work!). We know our pup is in good hands! :)”
About: I currently cannot have my own dog but I love taking care of dogs. I have been watching some family friends’ dogs taking care of them and their home while they’re on vacation. I’m currently working a job part time on the weekends but my week days are completely free because I’m a teacher who is off for the summer. I have a fenced in yard. I also do not have any pets but my boyfriend and I love dogs! We love taking care of other people’s pets because they all have different personalities!

“Libby is a great sitter! She takes my dog on neighborhood walks or if time and weather permit, adventures to a nearby walking path. She's easy to communicate with and has made me feel at ease while I'm at work! Thanks, libby”
“This was my first time using Rover and I could not ask for a better person. She was super sweet and made sure Thor was taken care of. She even scheduled time to meet Thor before their walk the day before. I would highly recommend.”
About: I love animals. With over 30 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, animals have been a central part of my life since childhood. I started walking dogs in middle school as my very first job, and I’ve never stopped loving it! I’ve raised and trained my own dogs from puppyhood, so I understand the patience and consistency needed during those early stages. I currently care for my own dogs, I love them and they are my best friends and 100% part of our family. I have experience with senior pets who require medication, as well as rescue dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding due to anxiety or feeding concerns. I’m reliable, calm, and deeply dedicated to each pet’s unique needs. I am open to most pets and have had hamsters, birds, fish, frogs, turtles, lizards, hermit crabs, etc over the years! As an elementary school staff member, I have my summers off—giving me the time and flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care for your furry family members. My schedule is very flexible this summer! I work in an elementary school during the school year, so I'm off for the summer months. Other than occasionally carpooling my son to camp, my days are wide open and I'm available to accommodate a variety of pet care needs I prefer to care for dogs in their own home so they stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and secure, especially when their routine changes. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to work with you to accommodate your dog’s specific needs
About: I grew up with a dog of my own for 17 years! I also have tons of experience with others pets through babysitting, dog sitting, and house sitting. I am very reliable and passionate about providing a safe and loving space for my furry friends. I am currently a student and work part time, but still find my self to have extra time on my hands. I am very active in the neighborhood and would love to help out families and pets! I live in a pet friendly appartment complex with a front and back yard. I am located in a safe, homey neighborhood with lots of room to roam! I am also willing to meet you where you are comfortable!
About: I’ve always had a dog while growing up and have a true love for them! I may not have any pets of my own at the moment but I treat each dog as such. Since I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life I know the kind of love, attention and care they need and ensure to provide all of those traits for this I’m in the process of getting my real estate license so I’m currently working part time mostly at nights, which leaves my mornings and afternoons pretty available to check in/walk your dogs! My current place does not allow me to have pets, but from having my own dogs growing up I know the kind of care it takes to handle a dog in your own home! I would treat both your home and dogs with respect and give your dog the love you need for the time being
“Christine is absolutely wonderful. She has helped me so much with my German Shepherd, Frank! She walks him everyday. She has even made herself available last minute when I have been stuck at work and couldn’t get home to my boy, life saver! I highly recommend if you want someone caring and trustworthy to take care of your fur babies!”
About: I started walking dogs at Cincinnati Animal Care back in 2022. I quickly found my obsession with dogs. I also take dogs out for “day trips” from the shelter to give them a break from the noisy environment. While volunteering, I met my baby and quickly adopted her. We actually have social media platforms all on how obsessed with her I am, and how much I love caring for the shelter dogs! I also walk an Italian Greyhound every weekday. 🤗 My resident dog is very high energy so im no stranger to getting the zoomies out! I currently work from home, M-F. I would be free anytime on the weekends, as my boyfriend can host my girl while I’m dogsitting! I usually wake up by 7 am, and we immediately get the day started with exercise! As a very obsessed dog mom myself, I know that it’s hard to trust a stranger to watch your dog. I treat every dog I meet like it’s my own. I truly mean it when I say dogs are my biggest hobby, so whatever the dog needs is what our day to day will entail!
“Sara was fantastic! She was punctual and treated Millie with the upmost respect. Sara gave great updates throughout the walk and captured some stunning photos. I would highly recommend Sara for any of your pet needs!”
“Maddie was incredible! I reached out last minute and wouldn’t be able to meet her before hand. Her good reviews and repeat clients gave me a lot of reassurance. My dog’s walk went perfectly and Maddie had great communication. We will definitely be re-booking 😊”

“Our little guy seemed happy at Stephanie's house! The family was very nice, and their house is tucked in a cul-de-sac away from busy roads. We got updates and/or pictures most days, and Stephanie was always timely in her responses to any messages I sent her. We plan to use her again!”
“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“We were really happy with the care Kodiak received during her stay. We loved the picture updates and hearing what she was up to while we were gone. Kodi came home much more relaxed than she ever has after staying at the kennel. Thanks for taking care of our girl! We will definitely look to book again for future care.”
