“Joe was fantastic! My dog had a great time and Hoe followed my instructions with everything. Joe sent pictures everyday letting me know that my dog was happy and having fun. We had to modify some things and Joe made the process super easy. I would definitely recommend his services.”

“Minty was great with our senior dog. I was worried about her since she gets anxious in new situations but Minty & her husband have a great set-up, and really care. They made her feel at home with plenty of walks & love! I appreciate that she kept me up to date with texts & pictures, too.”

“John and Kelly took really great care of Koda! They kept us updated on how he was doing and gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation. We look forward to booking with them in the future since Koda enjoyed his stay so much!”
“I have a 12 yo German Shepard. He's an old man now. We were going away for New Years and our normal sitter wasn't available. I was apprehensive about leaving him with someone new. Karin was spectacular. She was attentive to his needs and careful about his 'age' related shortcomings. She has a pup of her own and a young son who loved my boy. Karin sent plenty of pics of him and was very communicative during his stay, asking questions to make sure behaviors were normal and making sure he'd tolerate the environment there! I don't know how many stays my old man has left in him, but Karin is definitely the person I'd want watching him when I leave!”


“Kathryn did an excellent job taking care of our dogs while we were on vacation. Setting up the booking was super easy, all concerns and questions were addressed quickly. The communication and pictures during our time away were spot on, and put my mind at ease that our babies were happy and well cared for. The pick up was efficient and it was so nice to see how happy, relaxed and worn out from all the fun and love they received from Kathryn!”
“Melissa was very accommodating and helpful. She accepted and helped carry in his crate which is the safest place for him if they leave the house. She said that would only be for a short time and maybe not at all. She sent several pics of our dog playing outside , interacting inside or making himself at home on a bed. He was safe and returned home tired from all of his play/running around. I was very grateful for Melissa’s care.”

“Leaving Benji with Krystal and Ryan is a very good experience for Benji. He dashes into their home at drop off not caring to say goodbye to me. He has a great time there and they attended to small unexpected medical issue which started prior to drop off and had him recovered before pick up. I would unhesitatingly leave Benji with them any time again”

“Catherine is absolutely lovely and clearly loves dogs! My pup was welcomed as if she was one of the pack already. Catherine did an amazing job of introducing her slowly to the other dogs and took great care of Lady. Would definitely book again!!”

“Amber was AMAZING ? We left our Marlie girl with Amber for week while we went out of state. I was a little nervous about being so far away but Amber put my mind at ease with multiple updates daily and lots of pics. They went on lots of long walks, played in the great big backyard and chased squirrels. I am so grateful to Amber for taking such good care of our girl. I would highly recommend Amber. Marlie is already excited for her next pup vacation at Amber’s house”


“My Crunch loves staying at Lisa’s. He pulled me by his leash to her door his second time going over. He has some separation anxiety and a complex with larger dogs so her home is perfect to keep him happy while we’re away 😊”

“Once again and as always, Alyssa was great! My guy has developed some dominance/reactivity issues since his last stay, she was still perfectly willing to take him and confident in her handling. She sent me a video after his drop off to help eaise my concerns. Will definitely use her again!”

“First time leaving my dog Danny with Susan and she was a great dog sitter during my weeklong trip. Great communication and very responsive. Would definitely have her board my dog again.”

“Kristen was prompt in getting in touch with me about boarding my fur babies, accommodating to their needs and schedule. Kristen kept in touch with me, sending pictures, and notifying me when she had concerns with one of my senior dogs. They had great love and care, will be calling Kristen again 🐾”

“My dog is a high energy boy. The first night was a little rough due to the new environment. But he quickly settled in after, overall was a great stay. Brendan was patient with Sam, gave him enough care and attention. Thanks for all your time and attention putting on Sam!”

“Catherine and Adam were wonderful sitters for our two dogs. They were very responsive, sharing updates and photos, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I have provided care and enrichment for a variety of animals throughout my life, from hamsters all the way up to farm animals. I have had multiple jobs in animal care, acquired a bachelor’s degree that required multiple animal-related care internships, and have personally cared for many family pets in their own homes. I'M OFFICIALLY FULL-TIME IN PERSONAL PET CARE ☺️ If a pet parent is flexible with their schedule I can fit it around my other clients! Especially for walks or drop ins. I'm going full-time on pet care for a little while I am content to go for long walks or trips to a dog park, or just lounge around the house with the occasional trip outside all depending on what your pet prefers. I will follow all instructions on their meals and any meds they may have.
“Hatsuki took great care of our dog Chloe! She sent frequent updates and pictures about how Chloe was doing. At the end of the visit Hatsuki provided me with an extensive summary about Chloe's stay. I felt completely comfortable leaving Chloe with her and highly recommend her.”

“Amber watched our kitties for 5 days through drop in visits. From the start, Amber was very communicative and met us and the kitties before our trip! Every day we got at least two photos with descriptions. Amber even communicated with us through WhatsApp to make sure we received updates. It doesn’t stop there- one of our kitties is having trouble pooping in the litter box. Without trouble/hesitation, Amber assured me it wouldn’t be a problem and she made sure to take care of any messes and showed our kitty love. We are so happy that we were able relax knowing our kitties were in good hands!”

“Emma went above and beyond when taking care of our cat Cooper. He warmed up to her so quickly and she made sure we were always updated on how he was doing. I enjoyed seeing all of the photos she took of him when I was missing him. I would 100% trust her to look after him again.”


“Caroline did a great job for a second time in a row, great communication, follow all our requests and our kitties were happy to have her visit them and feed them and take care of them. Thank you Caroline!”

“Bethany, Thank you so much for taking care of our baby. He loves you! He also says you were the best cat sitter he’s ever had! He also thanks you for the toys. That was very thoughtful of you! 😻”

“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. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”


“Courtney is not only a great petsitter, she's handy too. There was an issue with a leaky fish tank while I was gone and she took care of it for me. I highly recommend her services.”

“I just met Scott for the first time today. There was a possibility I would have to go out of town to the hospital in the next day or two. I have one cat sitter but I need additional one. I immediately felt at ease with him. He carried some heavy cat litter down my steps into my basement and did the litter boxes. He's very kind and although my cats really didn't meet him today I feel very comfortable in leaving him his care.”

“Lindsey took a very short notice booking for my cats, communicated well, and made sure they were taken care of. She also brought in my mail and did a few other tasks while I was away. Highly recommend working with her!!”

“Catherine and Hubby are a wonderful team. They both love animals and they take such good care of my fur baby, just like she's their own. If you need care I highly recommend THEM!”

“Kristin was amazing! We were from our of town visiting family and needed a last minute pet sitter and she was so quick to help us! Extremely accommodating and friendly! I will be recommending her to all my Ohio friends. Oh, and she gave us several pictures throughout the day of our little guy ❤️”

“Aubrey really helped us out with last minute daycare after a death in our family. Our dog Maggie got along well with her two terriers. She updated me with pictures and texts through out the day. Thank you Aubrey!”

About: Hi! Meet us, Rebecca and Ethan 😁 We love pets! Ethan grew up with several dogs, ranging from puppies to older dogs. Our family loved an Aussie of our own for several years. Unfortunately she passed on a few years ago. We aren’t ready to have another dog yet, so we truly love taking care of our friends and family’s dogs! Rebecca is a stay at home mom with complete flexibility in her schedule. Ethan works from home and loves taking pups for walks and even on his daily runs if the dog is up for it! We live in a very safe neighborhood that is great for walking dogs! We have a fenced in back yard, and room in our home for your dog! We have a cat who honestly stays clear of dogs when we have them staying with us. We have three kids who love having dog friends come to our house!
“Arlissa is so great with Zoey. Every time Zoey is dropped off she gets so excited, which is so nice to see as a pet parent. Arlissa also sends photo and video of Zoey. Overall, I highly recommend.”

About: I've taken care of my family dog for 6 years, and I also was entrusted with my friends and family's dogs since I was 9. Currently, I am doing volunteer work and shadowing physicians as I am home for the summer from college. I am available majority of the week and weekends. I make sure to let our animals have their separate spaces for when they are in need of a rest. They also have fulltime access to food and water, and I have a fenced in yard with enough room to run around. In a client's home I will make sure your pet has food, water, and a clean place to go to the bathroom. I will ensure they are mentally stimulated with plenty of play time and cuddle time.
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: Hi, I’m Courtney! Your dog’s new dependable best friend. With 15 years of experience working with animals, I bring a calm, confident, and caring approach to every visit. I’m comfortable with all breeds, all sizes, and all personalities — from shy seniors to energetic puppies. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have dogs and guinea pigs at home, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and understood while keeping you updated every step of the way. Pet care is naturally built into my weekly routine. I plan my schedule around my drop-ins and walks to make sure every pet gets consistent, on-time care. I check in throughout the day, send updates, and make sure each visit has my full attention. On my days off, I’m even more flexible and can offer extra visit times. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine, make sure their needs are met, keep their space clean, and give them plenty of attention. I provide calm, consistent care and always send updates each visit.
“Tim and Kasia were amazing with our Oliver! We were nervous to leave him for the first time since adopting him, he’s goes to work with us every day and he rides with us nearly everywhere but our daughters play sports and we have long weekend days away from home. They sent videos of him running around with the other dogs playing and having a blast, which was great to see because he’s a total couch potato at home. When my husband picked him up he acted like he didn’t want to leave which is out of character for Oliver because he’s usually glued to us 24/7! He loved being there and they will be our first choice whenever we need care for Oliver.”

About: My wife and I have been taking care of our dog and foster dogs for the past 6 years. We've taken care of dogs ranging in size of French bulldogs to Siberian huskies. We have experience with high maintenance dogs and giving medications as well. My wife and I currently work from home and have plenty of time to play and take care of your pups. During the week boarding availability is best in the evening after 5 but accommodations can be made if needed. Weekends are 100% free and open. I have a larger fenced in yard and great neighborhood for plenty of walks. I can easily crate your dog if needed as well. We have plenty of different dog toys and beds throughout the house too.
“Parisa is one of the nicest and most caring people I’ve met. In fact, I just met her and I could tell this instantly. I definitely trust that she provided my pup with the best and most loving care. I will 100% be using her again. Thanks again, Parisa!”

“Sabrina and her family were awesome, they were so good to Oliver and I know he had a blast because he came home and immediately passed out for the rest of the night! I definitely recommend Sabrina for all your pup watching needs!”


“Ann and Jason, Thanks for taking care of Baxter on 6/9. I'm grateful for your help and glad he got along well with everyone! I'll be in touch with future bookings! Warren Iulg”

“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!”

“Zoey had a great time with Jennifer for a few hours! She kept me updated with photos and Zoey got to play with 2 small pups at her house as well. She came home tired! Thanks again!”

“My dog, Maze, and I worked with Amber for several months with walks twice a week, she was always on time and left detailed information about how the walk went. I really appreciated Amber’s help and I know Maze loved her time with her.”

About: I have one dog who is often spoiled with hikes, snuffle mats, sniff work, yard activities, special treats and some basic training. I'd love to spoil your pup in the same ways while we all hang out! I walk my dog almost every day. And on days I can't I make sure we do extra indoor activities or play extra in the Yard, maybe go for an extra car ride. First, I follow any instructions given by dog parents. I have a fenced in yard. As long we don't have any escape artists, pets will be able to roam the yard freely. I like to make frequent potty trips and tried to keep pets entertained in some shape or way.

“Jacquelyn was great. She obviously loves dogs (what I needed her for) and my Georgia loved her. She followed all instructions and the walk turned out to be a great success. I recommend using her for your needs.”

About: My husband Jeff and I have 2 dogs and no kids. Our dogs are our kids! Our dogs are about 2 years old and get along well with other dogs. Both of us grew up with dogs and have had dogs that are both young and senior. We give our dogs lots of time and attention. We are responsible pet owners and believe in keeping them healthy, loved, safe, and part of our pack! I am retired and my husband works part-time so one of us is almost always home to care for your pet(s). If we are gone for a few hours, our dogs are caged in the house. Usually, it is if we go out for dinner or the store, so it's for short periods. If your dog does not do caging, that's ok as long as they are good! We have a large fenced yard. Our 6 foot privacy fence also has wire mesh at the bottom of the fence to make sure dogs are safe and can't get out (or other animals get in). Our dogs are about 3 years old and get along well with other dogs. They love to play and are free to move in the house and the yard, and they get regular walks. Dogs are allowed on furniture. We would love to be your pet sitter while you are away, and you can be confident your doggie will be happy, safe and loved!
About: My mother has a dog sitting business called Your Place or Mine that I help her with regularly. I got on Rover to make some extra money while I'm in college. Furthermore, I've owned and taken care of dogs my whole life. Even now I have two of my own dogs. Since my Mom's more experienced with watching animals, she may help me with jobs from time to time. I work part-time and also go to school part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to stay with your pet(s) and check on them. I'll check on your pet(s) periodically and care for them as I'm instructed. I also have prior experience caring for older animals and animals who take oral medications or shots.

I'm available for sitting during late afternoon, evening, weekends, and overnight! I currently work from 9 to 3, but other than that I'm free. I take care to keep pets in the designated area(s), and follow care instructions regarding walks, play, feeding, and grooming (etc.) to a t!
About: I have been taking care of pets for 10 years now. My passion for animals boosted in 2013 when I started helping a nonprofit animal rescue.

About: I've had & taken care of cats & dogs since I was 7 years old! Over the past 5 years I've moved into caring for the pets of other's just as a favor to friends & family. Now I want to leave corporate America & care for furry family members professionally. I'm currently working on making pet sitting my full time job so my availability is completely open for around the clock care whether your pet is an early riser or a night owl!

About: I’ve cared for animals for many years and have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable providing everything from walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention to bathing, brushing, and basic grooming when needed. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping reinforce potty training, routines, and good habits. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet loves being active and playing, going on walks, or simply cuddling and relaxing, I’m happy to adjust their care to what makes them happiest. I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own pets. I’m available as needed for any pet sitting. If you have a specific schedule that is needed, I’m more than willing to abide by it. I currently have dogs in my own home and have had a cat. I have picked up some of my clients animals from their home to watch them at my house, as well as going to their house and caring for them in the comfort of their own home. I love going on walks and cuddling with all pets.
