Personalized care for your dog or cat - Hooven
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Hooven
“Chrissy is the most amazing person to care for my Doberman Joey. I have been using Chrissy for almost 3 years and highly recommend her. She treats Joey like family and every time we get a few miles away from her house Joey literally loses his mind with excitement. He loves it spending time with Chrissy and her family.”
“Katie and her husband Joe were such great hosts! They were kind enough to watch our 10 year old husky, Mr. Frank. I recieved plenty of updates and cute pictures! Additionally, they are both salt of the earth people and understand how important our fur babies are. They welcomed him into their home, just as if he always belonged. Looking forward to working with them in the future!”
“We couldn’t have found a better person to care for our German Shepherd. Karen was amazing and gave us updates and was very accommodating due to issues on my end. Thank you Karen!!”
“Amanda and Mike are awesome!! They truly care about your fur babies when you are away and treat them as their own. I did not worry one bit while my girl was with them. I have found my new fur babysitter!”
“Second time using Misty as a sitter. Hudson ran right inside when we dropped her off. She had a good time and came home worn out. Misty was able to accommodate my change in schedule as well. Will definitely use her again.”
“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.”
“We love Abbie! We moved to the area this year and are so grateful for her. She has watched Penny a few times and it always goes well. It is nice to travel and know that our girl is safe and playing with other dog friends.”
“This was our first time with Dana and Jason, who were great. We were very comfortable with leaving Ellie there overnight. Dana sent pictures and gave us updates. We will be using them again in July.”
“Leeann has cared for our girl, Cami, on two occasions, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! She provides excellent care, keeping us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos, which gives us such peace of mind while we’re away. Her communication is outstanding—always clear, timely, and professional. What truly sets Leeann apart is her dedication. When a snowstorm disrupted our travel plans, she didn’t hesitate to extend Cami’s stay for two extra days, ensuring she was safe and well cared for. That level of flexibility and kindness means the world to us. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who is thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely loves what she does, we wholeheartedly recommend Leeann. Your fur baby will be in the best hands!”
“Michelle was great! She was very accommodating with our drop off and pick up times which was very appreciated. We planned a meet and greet prior to the stay and it was very evident our dog was comfortable there. We'd definitely like to use Michelle again!”
“Like so many dog parents lost in the nerve wracking process of leaving your dog with someone new, we landed on Tonia. We scoured the listings and we made the RIGHT choice. She was very welcoming. We had a great meet and greet so Gus could meet her dogs and explore her space. Her house is very dog friendly and the yard is spacious and shaded. She was great at communicating and sending pics as well. Drop off and pick up was a snap. If you’re on the fence, jump on over and meet her. I would recommend to a friend and family and I would definitely use her again.”
“Ángel was great! She was very responsive and attentive since our first interaction. She sent us pictures of our Jack and let us know he was doing well while we were away. He is happy and well and we could have not asked for more. We will for sure book her for future sitting needs!”
“Cori and her family did a wonderful job watching my puppy over thanksgiving! I am so thankful that they welcomed her into their home during the holiday. I loved that her family had several dogs and kids that my dog could interact with. You can tell Cori and her family and dog lovers!! Thanks again!!”
“Ann Marie was wonderful with my emotionally needy little old guy. I was very nervous about leaving him with a new person. It is the first time I have used any type of dog sitting outside of family. Ann gave me frequent updates with pictures to calm my emotionally needy self🤪”
“Finn’s second time with Holly and he ran right inside when we dropped him off like it was his own house! He was so excited to be there and hang with Millie which makes us feel so good leaving him. Thanks again, Holly!”
“Can’t recommend Patricia enough! She took care of my fur baby like it was hers and I appreciate that a lot! I had a lot of reports through Dom’s stay with her, and photos🫶🏻; she really care for our doggies and played with them and give them love and attention and they won’t feel far from home. Best sitter so far!🤍”
“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!”
“Want to drop a note of love for Tasha & Joe... my 2 boys have been going to them for almost 4 years now, and I can always rest easy knowing they are in a great home with attentive owners, and other fur friends too. I always appreciate the picture updates they provide too. They're the best!!”
“I had an accident a few days ago I ended up unable to walk, needed a sitter asap but someone that I could trust my fur baby; Rachel cared of my baby since the day that I text her, took care of everything so I could get some rest, she’s the best, kept my baby playing and having so much fun! 5 stars is not enough, definitely going back to her whenever I need her again, God bless you for such a big heart❤️”
“Eliza took such great care of our beagles!! She was more than happy to meet prior to us leaving our dogs with her just so we could know who was watching our pups and to ease some anxiety. My dogs loved her right from the start and had such a great time with her! Highly recommend and will definitely rebook!”

“Brie always goes above and beyond to make sure our Kitties are taken care of! I cannot give Brie enough praise! She is a great communicator, which gives me peace of mind! Our Kitties love her!”
“This was my first time using Rover & so I really had no idea what to expect. Haley set up a time to meet me & my dogs before we left for vacation which worked out so well. My dogs were familiar with her when she came the first time, and by the end of the week they clearly loved her! My dogs had a couple issues during the week, and Haley was a trooper and not phased one bit. I would definitely recommend her for your pets!”
About: I have owned and helped take care of my family’s animals since I was around 6 years old. I am a dog mom to a 4 year old golden retriever and she is my world. I would love to do anything that I can to help you and take care of your pet while you are away or just need an extra hand. I can go on walks with them, play with them, feed them, and keep them safe! I can also help bathe them and keep them groomed by brushing them. I am a photographer so I have relatively open availability. If you’re interested in hiring me, please let me know and we can talk about your pet and your expectations for me as a sitter. Looking forward to talking with you and meeting with your pets!! My dog is my entire world so I know exactly how anyone who trusts their pet with anyone else feels. There is so much love and support coming from my side of taking care of them. I talk to them like they are people and give them reassurance when it rains or when they miss you. For stop ins, it’s super easy for me to sit with them for up to an hour, giving them affection and company. For my own dog, we go on walks a lot and do tricks and puzzles to ensure brain exercise during the day. I do not have a fenced in yard yet, but we do walk with a leash around the town as well as use a beeping and vibrating collar to keep pets in our yard.
About: I've taken care of cats since I was young . I now have 2 cats and they bring me so much joy. They have such unique personalities. I love helping my friends with their cats and feeding the cute neighborhood cats
About: I've had a house full of pets since I was born. We always had at least 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 turtles, and other pets in the house. Chance was my main pet (pitbull) who I personally trained and took care of from the age of 10 until I left for college. I now have a chihuahua named Taako and a fluffy cat named Magnus that I take care of. I've also helped watch cats and dogs of family and friends. I also spend my free time volunteering at Lake Humane Society. I have experience in reading cat temperment (don't want to get bit in a shelter!) and training dogs. I work full time 9-5 during the week from home but I can help during a lunch break, after work any time, or on weekends! I will work to whatever your comfort level is for your pets! My chihuahua is distrustful of strangers so I entirely understand if your animals need some time to warm up to me.
“We had a great experience with our drop-in visits! Communication was excellent, our dog was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. We’d absolutely book again.”
“Omg. She took the best care of my little kitty family. I felt very comfortable being away and my kitties being in her care. I never once worried about them or what was happening while I was away. She updates me with every visit, which was so appreciated!”
About: I have two special needs cats myself. They both require different types of medication to be administered daily on a regular schedule. They also have varying levels of intimacy needs. One cat needs lot of loves and cuddles and pets. And the other likes to be left alone with an occasional head scratch. I have the patience and understanding to help your kitties and give them what they need in a loving manor !
“Tiffany was nothing short of a dream, she truly cares about what she does. We had a very busy weekend with our wedding and she totally took charged and watched over our boys. We are very grateful for all her help. She was very attentive to both boys needs and want.”
About: Hi! I’m Shealynn, a dedicated animal lover who understands that pets are family. I provide reliable, attentive care and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, overnight care, or extra playtime, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering basic medications if needed, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. I have a specific interest in senior and special needs pets as someone who works in geriatric healthcare! I have experience with dogs and cats of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities, and I always prioritize safety and positive interactions. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine passion and dedication to animals. Caring for dogs and cats isn't just a job for me—it's what I want to dedicate my life to. I currently serve as the General Manager of a pet lodge, where I've worked since July 2024. Prior to that, I gained valuable experience at both an animal hospital and another boarding facility. I have hands-on experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, as well as dogs of all breeds and sizes and cats of all personalities. I am comfortable administering a wide variety of medications, including pills, tablets, insulin injections, eye medications, ear medications, and more. I take immense pride in providing exceptional care and treating every pet as if they were my own. It would be an honor to care for your furry family members, and I promise they will receive the top-notch, five-star care, attention, and love they deserve. I am currently the General Manager of a boarding, daycare, and grooming facility, where I have the opportunity to work with pets and their families every day. While I truly enjoy what I do, my long-term goal is to build something of my own. I am working toward starting my own pet care business and eventually opening my own boarding and daycare facility. My passion for animals and commitment to providing exceptional care drive me to continue learning, growing, and pursuing that dream. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have four dogs and a cat of my own, so at this time I primarily offer drop-in visits and dog walking services in your home. This allows me to give your pets the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they deserve while keeping them comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether it's a daily walk, playtime, feeding, or simply spending quality time with them, I am committed to making sure your pets feel loved and well cared for while you're away.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Hooven
“So great! My puppy Steve loves going to Kimberly's house he has lots of playtime with the other dogs that are there, Kimberly keeps in contact with me sending pictures of my pup playing, she takes them on walks! I couldn't be more happy with the doggie daycare, Steve is much more happy and stimulated and I'm relaxed knowing he's being well taken care of and getting the love and attention he needs”
“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.”
“Karen is awesome, our dog Charlie loves going to see her when we go on our trips. Karen is so flexible and easy-going. I really appreciate it with our busy schedules. Karen is our number one pick when it comes to dog boarding.💛”

“Sadie and Lola had the BEST day playing with their new friends! I’ve had a lot of experience with Rover and could easily see that my girls felt welcomed and cared for throughout their stay! Jamie was quick and efficient in responding to all my questions. I received updates and pictures throughout the day and could see my girls were in the best of hands! Sadie and Lola will be back soon! I highly recommend Jamie!”
“We traveled from Michigan to explore the area and visit the Creation Museum. During our visit, Tyler provided outstanding care for our nervous dog. He ensured she enjoyed multiple walks each day, which she loves. Understanding her age, Tyler was flexible and allowed her to take her much-needed naps. Thanks to Tyler, we could fully enjoy ourselves knowing our dog was in great hands!”
“Leeann was amazing with a last minute booking and being so flexible on drop off and pick up times. Thank you for finding a calm room for her to stay where she was comfortable too!”
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.
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: When Covid started, I accidentally started my business by helping a couple people who adopted dogs outside of their care knowledge. Helping them with their working class dogs (pitbull, collie, and a GSP) and establish a better owner/pet relationship made me realize that this is the right move for my future. Since then I have started my own business as well as helping others with their new family member(s). No creature is too small or large for me. My smallest dog client is 3 pounds and the largest is 215. Aside from that I have expanded my practices with lizards, snakes, cats, and birds. Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime! I am home most of the day. I do part-time work in hospice as well as part-time classes; (I have a door bachelors degree already working towards a BSN). If you have a special needs animal, I am more than happy to comply with their schedule, I just need to know in advance as much as possible. I have a fenced in yard in the back (will have a fully fenced in yard by the end of August in the front). My dogs have a semi strict schedule of activities to keep them mentally/physically stimulated. I follow suit with everybody’s dog. Everybody eats in their own crate, is provided with soft bedding to sleep on in their own crate, but exercise thoroughly throughout the day.
About: Hi, we're Faith and Rusty. Rusty is a senior corgi-retriever mix that loves naps and rolling in the grass. We walk twice a day and enjoy living near plenty of trails and a big park. He is dog-friendly and would love some company. We're open to hosting for dogs, animals in enclosures, and animals that may be harder to find care for. I have a lot of personal experience with animals from pets to exotics, so we would love to host your loved one. I am fully available. I can also add on weekend activities such as a local hike or taking them to a prepaid grooming appointment for an additional fee. I have an aging dog that takes medication and requires accommodation for seperation anxiety, so I am familiar with meeting special needs or adjustments in care. I do not crate pets unless advised due to behavioral concerns, and the pet must be crate trained. For animals that live in enclosures such as rabbits or guinea pigs, I will keep them on a desk or in my room with periods of playtime out of the enclosure as directed by their guardian.
“Our puppy loved her visit with Sarah and Jared. It was such a relief to me to not have to worry about her! She was sad to leave and slept the rest of the afternoon. Plan to reach out to them again! Thanks!”
About: Hello! I’m a Part-Time working Momma and we love animals! I have grown to enjoy dogs mostly. I’ve had a pet dog for a great amount of my life as well as other animals like rabbits, fish and snakes! Size or age doesn't matter, they are all fun. I love their energy and seeing how they interact with loved ones. I frequently help out family members with their dogs which includes bathing, walking, picking up their food and medicine. Taking trips or “car rides” are also a fav’ we partake in. Dogs are truly a pleasure to have and I would love the opportunity to provide care to your fur baby! I have open availability now and have one kiddo! We are up pretty early for school/sports and events so I am pretty flexible with boarding/scheduling! I have a fenced in backyard with lots of space to run and play. I also have a finished basement for those that are potty trained.
“Angel is great! It was our first experience leaving our Zoey with a sitter. Angel kept in contact with us during the day and even sent pics. We brought Zoey back for a second stay 2 days later while we were on vacation so we could do our thing and we would be at ease knowing Zoey was in good hands. We would definitely use Angel again if needed.”
About: Hi! I’m someone who genuinely loves animals and treats every pet like family. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I focus on making both pets and owners feel safe, relaxed, and cared for from day one. I have experience caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs — including administering medications, working with reactive dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. I understand that every pet is unique, and I’m patient, attentive, and committed to creating a calm, positive environment where they feel secure and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime, or simply wants extra affection and attention, I tailor my care to fit their individual routine and personality. I’m confident reading body language and helping nervous or high-energy pets feel safe and understood. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I also make it a priority to keep routines consistent to help reduce stress and make the experience as comfortable as possible for your pet. My goal is simple: to give your pet a loving, stress-free experience while giving you total peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I currently stay at home so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, loving care for your pets. I’m available for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-in visits throughout the week and weekends. Your pet will never feel rushed or overlooked — I make it a priority to give each animal personalized attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I’m also happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medication routines, and special care instructions to help your pet feel comfortable and at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel secure and loved while you’re away. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor play. I treat every pet like family and always follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, exercise needs, medications, and preferred sleeping arrangements.
“Rachelle is awesome! She really cares for my dogs needs and knows how to handle her reactivity to other dogs. She read the long list I gave her of info on our dog and sent multiple updates during the day. And she was able to handle my dogs quirky behavior really well (a mini dachshund). I really recommend Rachelle if you want ur dog to have more individualized care than just a boarding kennel. And Rachelle is really nice as well. I’ll be coming back for sure when we go out of town!”
About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life and many other animals . I currently have 5 dogs, 3 cats and a bunny. I take pet sitting very seriously. I will take the best care of your pets when I am spending time with them. It brings joy to help others get the best care for their pets while they are away. I would prefer to take care of your pets in your home because that is where I think they feel most comfortable. However, I do watch dogs in my home and after a successful meet and greet with your dog(s) and mine we can set up a booking at my house.
“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.”

About: Animals have been so much the center of my life that I made it my career! I am a professional dog trainer with an education through Jean Donaldson's Academy for Dog Trainer's. Let me bring that experience to carrying for your best friend's when you need a set of extra hands. I have loved and cared for pets my entire life! Growing up we had cats, dogs, birds and lizards. Currently I have two Great Pyrenees and one cat of great personaity. They have been my guides in the wonderful world of clicker training. Ghost, my rescue dog, has given me a lot of experience with anxious, sensitive dogs that need a little more time and care. Where as Nanuk has shown me how to handle dogs with a ton of drive and intelligence. And how to harness that despite physical limitations. And my cat... well, he comes running whenever I get the treat bag and clicker and has his own variation on all the dogs tricks. ;) I look forward to meeting your pets and seeing what I can learn from them! I am currently working part time and happy to work with you on scheduling. My husband is also retired which allows me a lot of flexibility for being away from home I do not care for client pets in my home. When is someone else's home I will do my best to continue your pet's usual routine while you are away.
About: Throughout my pet sitting experience, I have neighbors, friends, and families I pet sit for on a regular basis. I've had experience with giving any necessary medications to dogs that include shots and pills. I'm currently working part-time hours at a bookstore and in school part time. I take classes online so I can be flexible with hours. I'm open Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays for drop in visits and walks. I do not care for pets in my home due to not having a fenced backyard and/or any crate to keep pet/s in when I'm away.
About: I've had a house full of pets since I was born. We always had at least 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 turtles, and other pets in the house. Chance was my main pet (pitbull) who I personally trained and took care of from the age of 10 until I left for college. I now have a chihuahua named Taako and a fluffy cat named Magnus that I take care of. I've also helped watch cats and dogs of family and friends. I also spend my free time volunteering at Lake Humane Society. I have experience in reading cat temperment (don't want to get bit in a shelter!) and training dogs. I work full time 9-5 during the week from home but I can help during a lunch break, after work any time, or on weekends! I will work to whatever your comfort level is for your pets! My chihuahua is distrustful of strangers so I entirely understand if your animals need some time to warm up to me.
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 have taken care of dogs for family and friends, I have also taken care of horses for the past 10 years. I previously worked for 2 different doggy daycares. I am currently unemployed, so pet care will be my number one priority, and I absolutely love animals so I will always have time for them. I will constantly keep an eye on your fur baby and make sure their needs, happiness and safety are well exercised during the time they spend with me.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and other pets since I was very young. I love all pets, and I’m very reliable and patient. I go to school Monday through Friday at Xavier University. I am available during most hours of the day, depending on the week. I am very flexible to help fit your needs. I have a lot of free time, and I also have two of my own dogs whom I spend most of my time with. I love walks, and playing with pups!
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life, and for the last five years I’ve been the “call Lacey, she’ll do it!” pet sitter for family and friends. I’m obsessed with animals, and I take spoiling them very seriously. I love being outside, so your pup will get all the walks, sniff breaks, and adventures their heart desires. Your pets will get cuddles, playtime, and very special treatment every time! I also go by the name “Lu” so if you hear me called that it’s still me! I work full-time as a server, but I still have a flexible schedule and make plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, so feel free to reach out anytime—I’d love to help care for your furry friends! I personally have a fenced in yard and two friendly doggies. One is 8 years old and the other is 2. I can do whatever your pets need!
About: I have owned and helped take care of my family’s animals since I was around 6 years old. I am a dog mom to a 4 year old golden retriever and she is my world. I would love to do anything that I can to help you and take care of your pet while you are away or just need an extra hand. I can go on walks with them, play with them, feed them, and keep them safe! I can also help bathe them and keep them groomed by brushing them. I am a photographer so I have relatively open availability. If you’re interested in hiring me, please let me know and we can talk about your pet and your expectations for me as a sitter. Looking forward to talking with you and meeting with your pets!! My dog is my entire world so I know exactly how anyone who trusts their pet with anyone else feels. There is so much love and support coming from my side of taking care of them. I talk to them like they are people and give them reassurance when it rains or when they miss you. For stop ins, it’s super easy for me to sit with them for up to an hour, giving them affection and company. For my own dog, we go on walks a lot and do tricks and puzzles to ensure brain exercise during the day. I do not have a fenced in yard yet, but we do walk with a leash around the town as well as use a beeping and vibrating collar to keep pets in our yard.
About: I’ve taken care of family/friends dogs and cats. I’ve been a pet owner for 8+ years so I know how much animals mean to us! I’m saving up to pay for my studies and I currently work part time so the rest of my time can go to caring for your pet. I’m available from 8am-9pm weekdays! I have a fenced yard and a Shih Tzu who loves others pets and will keep your furry loved one company. We go on daily walks.
About: I have always have tiny little mutts running around since I was little and my love for animals has grown tremendously into adult hood! I love all animals in any size. My experience comes from taking care of my own pets as well as family, friends, and neighbors! I graduated Highschool early and working part time, my job is very flexible and knows that my pet care comes first! Im pretty available on most days of the week I have a gated back yard, with 3 doggies that are loving. They have their own “house” and I am easily able to put them in or out!

“Chrissy is the most amazing person to care for my Doberman Joey. I have been using Chrissy for almost 3 years and highly recommend her. She treats Joey like family and every time we get a few miles away from her house Joey literally loses his mind with excitement. He loves it spending time with Chrissy and her family.”
“Katie and her husband Joe were such great hosts! They were kind enough to watch our 10 year old husky, Mr. Frank. I recieved plenty of updates and cute pictures! Additionally, they are both salt of the earth people and understand how important our fur babies are. They welcomed him into their home, just as if he always belonged. Looking forward to working with them in the future!”

“Second time using Misty as a sitter. Hudson ran right inside when we dropped her off. She had a good time and came home worn out. Misty was able to accommodate my change in schedule as well. Will definitely use her again.”
“We love Abbie! We moved to the area this year and are so grateful for her. She has watched Penny a few times and it always goes well. It is nice to travel and know that our girl is safe and playing with other dog friends.”
“Michelle was great! She was very accommodating with our drop off and pick up times which was very appreciated. We planned a meet and greet prior to the stay and it was very evident our dog was comfortable there. We'd definitely like to use Michelle again!”
“Like so many dog parents lost in the nerve wracking process of leaving your dog with someone new, we landed on Tonia. We scoured the listings and we made the RIGHT choice. She was very welcoming. We had a great meet and greet so Gus could meet her dogs and explore her space. Her house is very dog friendly and the yard is spacious and shaded. She was great at communicating and sending pics as well. Drop off and pick up was a snap. If you’re on the fence, jump on over and meet her. I would recommend to a friend and family and I would definitely use her again.”
“Cori and her family did a wonderful job watching my puppy over thanksgiving! I am so thankful that they welcomed her into their home during the holiday. I loved that her family had several dogs and kids that my dog could interact with. You can tell Cori and her family and dog lovers!! Thanks again!!”
“Finn’s second time with Holly and he ran right inside when we dropped him off like it was his own house! He was so excited to be there and hang with Millie which makes us feel so good leaving him. Thanks again, Holly!”
“Can’t recommend Patricia enough! She took care of my fur baby like it was hers and I appreciate that a lot! I had a lot of reports through Dom’s stay with her, and photos🫶🏻; she really care for our doggies and played with them and give them love and attention and they won’t feel far from home. Best sitter so far!🤍”
“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!”
“Want to drop a note of love for Tasha & Joe... my 2 boys have been going to them for almost 4 years now, and I can always rest easy knowing they are in a great home with attentive owners, and other fur friends too. I always appreciate the picture updates they provide too. They're the best!!”
“I had an accident a few days ago I ended up unable to walk, needed a sitter asap but someone that I could trust my fur baby; Rachel cared of my baby since the day that I text her, took care of everything so I could get some rest, she’s the best, kept my baby playing and having so much fun! 5 stars is not enough, definitely going back to her whenever I need her again, God bless you for such a big heart❤️”
“Amy is the best and we are so grateful that she takes great care of Toby for us. If you are looking for someone to care for your dog the way that you do Amy and her family are the best option out there! Thanks again Amy!”
“Wow!!! Kymberlee and her family did an awesome job loving on our sweet dog. Kymberlee was great at communicating and sending updates. We have four kids so our dog loves being their shadow and playing with them and our dog just picked right up with her kids so it was just like he was at home. Highly recommend!”
“Scout and Fergus were treated to a stay with Lindsay and family during our visit to Cincinnati. We were so very pleased with the treatment and care given our dogs. We will not only use Lindsey again, but consider more visits to the area having confidence that our pets have made new friends. I’ll never forget Lindsay’s 4 year old waving and shouting “I love you” to the dogs as we drove away. Big smiles. Thanks guys. They love you too sweetie.”
“Michael and Anne were so great to Jax while we were gone for a week. He was so spoiled and happy when we picked him up! We also received several videos and pictures of him while we were out to see how much fun he was having. Will definitely use Michael and Anne if we go out of town again!”
“Tammi was a wonderful host to our pups. She gave us such peace of mind that I was able to focus on the event and not worry if our girls were safe. My first time using Rover was a success, I will definitely return to Tammi again!”
“**Review for Jamie:** Jamie was fantastic! She watched our dog Sarge for a full week and did an amazing job. She kept us updated the entire time with pictures and messages, which made us feel completely comfortable and at ease while we were away. Sarge clearly had a great time too. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
