Personalized care for your dog or cat - Georges Run
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Georges Run
“My girl came home happy and worn out. She must have played non-stop with Raleigh's dog Gargamel, as the pictures and videos sent to me all showed. My feeling is so much better with her coming back from Raleigh's place than I have felt recently when I left her at a kennel. I'll soon be a repeat customer.”
“Megan and family were great with Rue. They kindly opened up their home for Christmas. Rue was a good boy, loved their dog and kids but he especially loved Megan. I will definitely be reaching out to Megan next time. Thank you so much for taking care of my good boy. I appreciated the communication and pictures you shared.”
“Canela loved staying with Jessica, Ted, and their kids! We received many photo updates which we greatly appreciated. It was also great that the family was able to stay with Canela most of the time, as she is used to people being around most of the day. She came home to us happy, healthy, and worn out from all her playing during what we would call a 5 star stay!”
“Katrina was GREAT! We were a little worried because we'd not gotten a chance to meet her before we got into town and we were 8 hours away from home but as soon as we met her we knew that she'd take great care of the dogs. She has two smaller dogs of her own that she kept separate from ours while we were there, but by the time we picked Hope and Lou up a few days later everyone was hanging out together. She was quick to update when I checked in on the dogs, but really, I felt comfortable enough that I only texted twice. I would absolutely leave them with her again when I'm back in the area.”
“Kelly helped us out last minute after a cancellation from another sitter and I’m SO glad we found her! I could tell by her updates, with pictures included, that her and her family were loving my pup like their own. He came home with a stylish new bandana and is a happy boy. I would recommend Kelly to everyone and we would definitely use her again!”
“Angeline and Dave were awesome with Zoey while I was out of town for work. Angeline made sure to send me pictures every day and it was really cool to see my pup getting along with their dog Benson. They were even thoughtful enough to put a little goodie bag with a note into her bag of stuff that I found when I got home! I’m already booked to have Zoey hang out with them again this week and I’m excited to use them again for my work trips in the future!”
About: What sets us apart is that dogs aren’t just pets in our home—they’re family. We’ve been caring for dogs together since 2013, and our animals live fully alongside us in everyday life, from couch snuggles to family adventures. Our dogs are regularly vetted, deeply loved, and yes—often spoiled. In addition to long-term pet care, we’re proud foster parents with The Road Home Animal Project and have lovingly fostered over 22 dogs (and counting), each with unique personalities and needs. This experience has made us patient, adaptable, and confident caring for dogs of all ages, energy levels, and backgrounds. Your pup won’t just be watched—they’ll be welcomed into a calm, happy home with a whole family devoted to their comfort and care. Pet care is woven into our daily life. My husband works remotely five days a week, I work part-time, and evenings and weekends are open—perfect for one-on-one attention, extra spoiling, and playtime with our dogs who love having new friends. We care for pets like family, offering fenced yard play, neighborhood walks, and crate options when needed. Our friendly, sometimes vocal dogs enjoy playmates, and pets are fully included in our home with supervision, comfy furniture, and attentive care.
“Heather was great! Had an unexpected death in my family and our original boarding plans fell through. I was looking diligently around for another option and found rover. After searching many reviews I came across Heather's profile. Once I reached out she was extremely responsive and helpful. I was able to drop my pup off the next day! She sent pictures and I felt great knowing my dog was in good hands. Thanks Heather!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and energy levels since I was young. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and giving medications if needed. I always make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I make sure I never overbook myself so every dog gets the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so I prioritize it in my weekly routine and stay consistent with walks, feedings, and playtime. I always follow each pet’s routine closely, whether I’m in my client’s home or mine. I stick to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I keep their space clean, safe, and calm, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m also happy to send updates so you always know your pet is doing well.
About: I’ve been helping friends and family take care of their animals while they are away since I was a kid. I love babysitting furry friends. I work certain days of the week at another job really early in the mourning and home by 1130 am. I’m a very quiet shy person but I love animals. I work certain days early in the mourning and I’m home by 11:30 a.m. I need a 4 day in advance booking. I love animals so I wanted a job to where I can work them. I spoil every animal I come across. Everyone will be fed. I have treats, toys, leashes, a special dog monitor for if I do have an overnight on a day I have to work. I do have an extra crate if you feel your dog needs crated. If your animal requires special treatment such as medication I will need something written out for that such as name of medication time taken etc. I care for every animal as if they were my own. Their health and safety is my main priority at all times.
“Dana was great! I needed a sitter at the last second and she was able to watch Colbie with no problem. She sent lots of pictures of her during her stay, and treated her just like one of her own dogs. I could tell that Colbie received lots of love and attention and was very happy. She got fresh chicken mixed with her food for dinner every night, and was even allowed to bring her favorite toy home with her. I will definitely be booking with Dana again in the future!”
“Mikaela is always great with our boys! She sends updates with pics daily and they always come home happy! We love using her for our dogs as their home away from home!”
“Duke had a wonderful experience with Christina and Daniel. When we arrived to pick Duke up, he and Daniel were just coming back from.a run in the field. We could tell that Duke was well cared for and comfortable in their care.”
“First time using Rover and could not have had a better experience with Cassandra. It is hard to leave your pet but we were so happy that we were updated daily. I highly recommend her if you need a pet sitter.”
“Lisa was so fantastic!!! She took care of our little guy like he was one of her own pets. She kept me updated with how he was doing and sent several pictures during his stay. I could not have been happier with our experience! If we ever take a trip again, I would not hesitate to book with Lisa again!!”
“This was our first time being away from our pup for an extended period of time and Joni put us at ease with updates and pictures. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Charlie was receiving quality care and attention.”

“Kristen came in clutch! We made a last-minute decision to extend our vacation and booked an Airbnb in the small town of Cadiz where sitter selection was sparse. Kristen responded to my request immediately and was willing to drive 30 minutes after work to take care of Bogey. The visit was flawless, she followed directions perfectly, and we returned to a happy dog. His bully looks were no issue for her either. I also appreciated the pics she sent. We felt comfortable leaving his care in her hands and would do so again. Maybe with more than 7 hours notice next time ?”

About: I'm passionate when it comes to top quality care of all animals. I live, eat, and breathe pet care/vet med. I'm a loving, kind experienced veterinary assistant with experience in specialty vet med. I have 2 medium well trained dogs that I share custody of, so I can accomodate more needy puppers or kitties if needed (they can go to their dads for sittings) I also have 3 cats. My first job as a kid in high-school was helping the local groomer wash dogs. I have pet sat, house sat, walked dogs, fed, bathed, clipped nails, admin'ed meds, etc. for over 20 years at this point. Because I have a background in vet med, I feel comfortable with pets who have some mild to moderate special needs. I work full time remotely, so I am available to sit in my home or at yours with short notice. I also have a very flexible schedule which allows for frequent potty/ walk about breaks. I have a spare room for pets overnight in my home. During the day they're allowed to freely roam the house and we will take occasional strolls to park, or on the trail, based on behavior and comfort level of all parties.

About: I have taken care of countless animals in my life. I truly adore them. I've raised llamas, mini donkeys, chickens, dogs, cats, hedgehogs, macaws, fish..to name a few! I believe animals are family. They enrich our lives and bring us happiness! I am currently retired and available frequently for boarding and/or daycare. I clean my yard daily, so no waste is evident. It is very important to me that your dog has all shots and is on a flea/tick preventative medication. I have a fenced yard, a doggie door that leads to the yard and a friendly labradoodle. I also have a cat, but she stays in her "own" room.
“Would highly recommend! When I realized a big chain daycare place wasn't the right fit for my dog, I turned to Rover to try and find a solution. Raleigh and his dog have been absolutely wonderful for my dog Rascal. He's knowledgeable about dog behavior and keeps play appropriate and fun for the dogs. From the meet and greet to the initial visit, he's been kind and listened to my concerns and works with me and my hectic schedule. This has been a great experience and I am hopeful that more people are willing to work with reactive dogs!”

About: Hi! I have been an animal lover and owner all my life. Growing up, I rode horses and my family had numerous dogs (puppies), cats (kittens), goats, hamsters, amphibians and birds! As an adult, I lived on a farm for 11 years and helped with a herd of goats, rabbits and mules. I am entertained by chickens and have raised multiple flocks of them and ducks too. I've also had great opportunity to travel doing house and pet sitting experiences along the way. I am an active person and I enjoy ensuring animals have the proper space and time to exercise in all seasons. It is my priority to treat animals with respect and kindness, allowing trust to develop. It is so interesting to make new fur-friends and learn each of their individual personalities. I am currently working only a small amount of hours each week, so my availability is quite open. I also have the flexibility to come to your house. I currently live with my parents and their two super friendly Boston terriers. We have a fenced yard and plenty of space for nice walks. If I am in your home, I am very adaptable and will follow your instructions for what is best for your pets.
About: I have had and taken care of dogs since I was 6 years old. I’ve been around many types of dogs, even guinea pigs, fish, goats, chickens, cats, and more. I’d love to give your pets the care they need and want, and definitely spoil them with some loving and treats (with permission). My work schedule varies but I’m very good with time management and I’d love to fit you into my schedule! My classes start back up in August so after that, my schedule will be more limited. I have a very big fenced in yard. I play with my animals regularly, feed them, clean up after them. I’d love to do the same with your animals.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Georges Run
About: Hello, I’m Kandis, a lifelong Steubenville local with a deep love for animals. Growing up with dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, birds, reptiles, fish, and even farm animals, I’ve gained hands-on experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, and life stages, from playful puppies and the ‘terrible twos’ to senior companions who need gentle care. I love how pets enrich our lives. Whether it’s daily dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, or medication reminders, I treat every pet like my own, with the patience and affection they deserve. I’m currently building my dedicated pet sitting and dog walking business in the Steubenville area.

I’m happy to work around your needs for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, or whatever your pets require. Just let me know your schedule! I deeply respect your home and privacy and will follow all instructions for your pets and property without issue.

My home features a fenced backyard, separate levels for quiet time if needed, and kennels for flexible arrangements. I have two friendly dogs of my own (a Bernedoodle and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel) who love making new friends and providing companionship during stays. I prepare healthy homemade treats like dehydrated fruit and jerky, and I’m experienced managing picky eaters and sensitive stomachs.

Whether it's regular check-ins, walks or occasional visits, I’m committed to being there when you need me. When caring for pets in their own home, I stick closely to their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of playtime and walks, and have lots of attention and affection. I also keep the home tidy and follow any specific instructions you leave—because your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priority!
About: I have been taking care of animals, mostly dogs and cats since I was 10 years old when I got my first puppy and have had dogs and cats ever since. I have a passion for animals and love taking care of them. Whenever friends or family need assistance taking care of their pet, I kindly oblige! I am only working part time at the moment so I am pretty flexible with my schedule. Mornings and afternoons are preferred for drop ins are preferred. I can do any time on the weekends. It varies depending on the situation. I typically take the dog for a walk or if there is a fenced in yard, I’ll take the dog out and play in the fenced in area.
About: I am back from home after graduating with a Masters this summer, so I am excited to come home and go back to dog sitting, what I’ve done since I was in high school! My dog Sammy is always so excited when we go home because she gets to meet new pup friends, and we both love having more dogs around to play with. Sammy is just about the nicest dog you'll ever meet. I've had dogs my whole life, and I love taking care of all animals, rowdy or calm! We have a huge yard (and a very tall fence, so no need to worry if anybody can jump over it!) that we can run in all day, and when we're all tired, we lounge on the couch and relax. Sammy and I take daily walks, and sometimes walk twice a day, which your animal can join in on as well. I take care of pets like they're my own, I just love them so much! My house will be like a home away from home for your pet. I am home working on writing and grading all day for my winter break so I am home the entire day to care for your pup. I will play or snuggle with the pets based on their energy and preferences! They will get treats as often as you tell me to give them (I know some pups are on a diet so I will wait for you to say if it’s okay to give any treats). They will go outside as often as they need and spend all winter inside a warm living room with me and my pup Sammy
About: My name is Kelly, I am 27 years YOUNG! I am a full time Criminal Justice college student attending Purdue Global University online. If it weren’t for Covid-19, I’d still be working as a Correctional Officer. I’m married to my best friend who has given me the best gift of all, a stepdaughter who is 8 years old. I have loved animals ever since I learned to walk. My parents never believed in buying animals, they believed in adopting the ones who didn’t have a home. I carried that with me growing up and became the go to for my neighborhood if they seen a stray animal. Call Kelly, they’d say. No challenge is too big with animals. I’ve been around plenty of new animals that didn’t like many people, including myself but I believe patience is key. We have baby steps to get to our goals and I believe the same for animals, you take baby steps and earn their trust and the rest will come. We have one dog, he is a cocker spaniel. His name is Charlie and he is about 6 years old. I’ve had him since he was just 7 weeks old, he is my whole world and the love/bond we share is undeniable and unbreakable. I treat ALL animals how I would want someone to treat mine; with love and patience. I have ample experience walking various breeds and sizes as well as ones with different temperaments. I love taking my Charlie butt on long walks and enjoy playtimes with him. He gets the best of love and care that I will show with you’re furry best friend!

About: I am deaf, so I am able to bond with pets more because they cannot communicate their needs with humans. I am likewise, so I hope to communicate with gestures as they may did. I am studying in a certificate program, so that shouldn’t be a problem. I will work during the workdays, and I can be available during weekends. I have two kittens and three koi fishes. They are fed once in the mornings or evenings. I cuddle them for some time but left them to wander wherever their curiosity attracted them. My cats like to sit on my chest or necks when they wished to, but I left them to their desires when they want to.

“My girl came home happy and worn out. She must have played non-stop with Raleigh's dog Gargamel, as the pictures and videos sent to me all showed. My feeling is so much better with her coming back from Raleigh's place than I have felt recently when I left her at a kennel. I'll soon be a repeat customer.”
“Megan and family were great with Rue. They kindly opened up their home for Christmas. Rue was a good boy, loved their dog and kids but he especially loved Megan. I will definitely be reaching out to Megan next time. Thank you so much for taking care of my good boy. I appreciated the communication and pictures you shared.”
“Canela loved staying with Jessica, Ted, and their kids! We received many photo updates which we greatly appreciated. It was also great that the family was able to stay with Canela most of the time, as she is used to people being around most of the day. She came home to us happy, healthy, and worn out from all her playing during what we would call a 5 star stay!”
“Katrina was GREAT! We were a little worried because we'd not gotten a chance to meet her before we got into town and we were 8 hours away from home but as soon as we met her we knew that she'd take great care of the dogs. She has two smaller dogs of her own that she kept separate from ours while we were there, but by the time we picked Hope and Lou up a few days later everyone was hanging out together. She was quick to update when I checked in on the dogs, but really, I felt comfortable enough that I only texted twice. I would absolutely leave them with her again when I'm back in the area.”
“Kelly helped us out last minute after a cancellation from another sitter and I’m SO glad we found her! I could tell by her updates, with pictures included, that her and her family were loving my pup like their own. He came home with a stylish new bandana and is a happy boy. I would recommend Kelly to everyone and we would definitely use her again!”
About: What sets us apart is that dogs aren’t just pets in our home—they’re family. We’ve been caring for dogs together since 2013, and our animals live fully alongside us in everyday life, from couch snuggles to family adventures. Our dogs are regularly vetted, deeply loved, and yes—often spoiled. In addition to long-term pet care, we’re proud foster parents with The Road Home Animal Project and have lovingly fostered over 22 dogs (and counting), each with unique personalities and needs. This experience has made us patient, adaptable, and confident caring for dogs of all ages, energy levels, and backgrounds. Your pup won’t just be watched—they’ll be welcomed into a calm, happy home with a whole family devoted to their comfort and care. Pet care is woven into our daily life. My husband works remotely five days a week, I work part-time, and evenings and weekends are open—perfect for one-on-one attention, extra spoiling, and playtime with our dogs who love having new friends. We care for pets like family, offering fenced yard play, neighborhood walks, and crate options when needed. Our friendly, sometimes vocal dogs enjoy playmates, and pets are fully included in our home with supervision, comfy furniture, and attentive care.
“Heather was great! Had an unexpected death in my family and our original boarding plans fell through. I was looking diligently around for another option and found rover. After searching many reviews I came across Heather's profile. Once I reached out she was extremely responsive and helpful. I was able to drop my pup off the next day! She sent pictures and I felt great knowing my dog was in good hands. Thanks Heather!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and energy levels since I was young. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and giving medications if needed. I always make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I make sure I never overbook myself so every dog gets the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so I prioritize it in my weekly routine and stay consistent with walks, feedings, and playtime. I always follow each pet’s routine closely, whether I’m in my client’s home or mine. I stick to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I keep their space clean, safe, and calm, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m also happy to send updates so you always know your pet is doing well.
About: I’ve been helping friends and family take care of their animals while they are away since I was a kid. I love babysitting furry friends. I work certain days of the week at another job really early in the mourning and home by 1130 am. I’m a very quiet shy person but I love animals. I work certain days early in the mourning and I’m home by 11:30 a.m. I need a 4 day in advance booking. I love animals so I wanted a job to where I can work them. I spoil every animal I come across. Everyone will be fed. I have treats, toys, leashes, a special dog monitor for if I do have an overnight on a day I have to work. I do have an extra crate if you feel your dog needs crated. If your animal requires special treatment such as medication I will need something written out for that such as name of medication time taken etc. I care for every animal as if they were my own. Their health and safety is my main priority at all times.
“Mikaela is always great with our boys! She sends updates with pics daily and they always come home happy! We love using her for our dogs as their home away from home!”
“Duke had a wonderful experience with Christina and Daniel. When we arrived to pick Duke up, he and Daniel were just coming back from.a run in the field. We could tell that Duke was well cared for and comfortable in their care.”
“First time using Rover and could not have had a better experience with Cassandra. It is hard to leave your pet but we were so happy that we were updated daily. I highly recommend her if you need a pet sitter.”
“This was our first time being away from our pup for an extended period of time and Joni put us at ease with updates and pictures. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Charlie was receiving quality care and attention.”
“Leni loved staying with Anthony and Leslie! They played with her, took her for walks, and treated her like family! We look forward to having Anthony and Leslie keep Leni for us next month 😁”

We currently have a Great Dane and Great Pyrenees as well as chickens, 1 guinea pig, 2 rabbits and fish. I'm all about making sure our babies are happy and healthy and living the best life we can provide to them. After doing much research and lots of experience, I've learned a lot about a dog's language and how to respect them. I will treat your pets as if they are my own and will love on them just the same. I can't wait to meet your fur-babies! Rover is my full time job right now so I’m available to take care of your pup throughout the day as need be, whether that’s just hanging out or a walk or potty break, etc. I have a large fenced in yard and our 2 dogs will gladly keep your pup company and enjoy running around. I can easily crate if need be as well.
“Cesar was so well taken care of and thoroughly enjoyed his stay! This was like a pet resort with beautiful space to play and a beautiful family who was attentive and caring to Cesar! He was so happy and content and I didn’t worry knowing he was cared for the entire time I was gone!”
