“Our dog Gunner had such a great stay with Bill and his family. The care and attention they gave him was above and beyond. Communication was outstanding. We will definitely be using their services again to take care of our special boy.”
“Emily was very attentive to Mishmish's needs! She sent lots of pictures and treated him like part of her furry family. I absolutely would recommend Emily to anyone looking to board their dog in a private home.”
“WOW!! I dont even know where to begin. As a first time user of Rover, I was unsure how it would go, and Joe exceeded every expectation I had. He was kind, responsive, and made all of us feel so comfortable throughout the process. Manny looked right at home in all of the pictures we sent and I’m pretty sure he would have stayed with Joe indefinitely if we let him 😂 Thank you Joe for an amazing experience and peace of mind while we were on our trip!!!”
“I can't say enough good things about Samantha! Leaving my dog, for the weekend is always a little stressful, but she put my mind completely at ease. From the moment I dropped Kevin off, I knew he was in good hands. Samantha went above and beyond in caring for kevin. I especially appreciated the pictures and videos she sent – it was so reassuring to see him happy and having fun. It really helped me relax and enjoy my weekend knowing He was being so well looked after. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog watcher. I'll definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“She took great care of our girl Sadie, she was great at sending updates and pictures, made our trip worry free. Sadie had a great time with Lauren and her dog Nala! Will definitely use Lauren again!”
“Tina was fantastic with Bogey. From the start, she made us feel welcome and comfortable, and she stayed flexible with timing and updates. Bogey came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. She shared helpful check-ins and treated Bogey like her own. We will gladly book with Tina again and highly recommend her!”
“Deanna was patient with our 7 months puppy who needed extra love and attention! She kept us updated with pictures and images. Our puppy even bonded with her pack! They came home happy and well.”
“I have left my 2 pups w Sally, many times, short and longer stays. Sally is THE best caregiver. They are happy to go and in good health when I return. Being in Sally’s home, helps me enjoy the time away. I highly recommend Sally’s care! Jo”
“Oh my!! Will and Bibiana, are the absolute best! We called them literally at the last minute made a booking they accepted the booking for our Charlie. This couple is awesome!!!! Very nice, very friendly, immediate welcome our Charlie with his disability into their home. They showed no hesitation to just make him feel welcome. Very professional , house is a place that you would want your very family taken care of. Our dog Charlie is a special needs dog. They didn’t even hesitate to say that they would take care of him as we had a funeral for my husband‘s uncle today in Cincinnati. Thank you, thank you, thank you Will and your lovely wife. We appreciate you so very much and we will be booking with you again! If you’re looking for a great place for your extended furry family consider Will and his lovely wife Bibiana. I HIGHLY recommend them! I love that they sent us videos of Charlie sitting in the window, watching the cars go by along with another dog and they was just having a good greatest time just looking out the window although our Charlie was barking at everything he saw, but the other dog tend to look at him and say, what are we looking at bud.🤣🤣”
“Leslie watched our 8yr old Golden Retriever in her home for the weekend. Our experience was absolutely outstanding! She has the perfect fenced in backyard for your dog to roam. She goes over how to care for your dog by sending a Q & A of your dog needs. She makes sure each dog is up to date on all shots and vaccinations and is able to administer medications if needed. The introduction to her home was just as fabulous! She has a meet and greet with the whole family and her adorable Golden, Shiloh. She takes every necessary step to ensure not only your fur baby is safe but is safe to have in her home. Our Golden even slept next to their bed at night because of her separation anxiety,she truly treats your pet as her own! I will be using her services again and will recommend her to anyone who would like to have their pet loved and cared for while you are away.”
“John and Shannon sent us several pics, video's and texts of Ruby enjoying walks, their dog Maggie and the backyard. We appreciated their honesty. It did not go problem free but they handled the situations properly. We are glad we tried Rover.”
“I loved getting the picture updates and seeing Apollo playing with the kids and other dog while we were away. It really helped knowing he was being cared for by a loving family and not just held in a kennel. Thank you so much and I hope you will care for Apollo again.”
“Lauren is absolutely wonderful! Her kind and caring nature shows through in the way she cares for our pups. Lauren is very detailed oriented, giving a report on how our pups got along with her dog and each other, what they ate, if they rested. We feel very blessed to have Lauren to help us care for our fur family.”
“From the time we dropped off our pup, we shown that she would be in great care. Gary and Heather provided consistent updates and photos as promised. We were told that our pup would be “cared for like one of our own” and our experience proved that. They took our pup to the dog park and the dog beach. As a high energy pup, we could tell she was thoroughly engaged judging by how tired she was when she returned home. We would highly recommend Gary and Heather to give you a peace of mind and your pup a loving home away from home.”
“Lillibet, our golden, came home happy and tired - a good sign that she was very active and had lots of fun! Abby and her husband were accommodating and sent updates to keep tabs on what she was up to while we were out of town. Great first experience on Rover!”

Cat caregivers near you - Johnstown
About: I absolutely love animals! I grew up in a home full of dogs and cats, and helping care for them was such a big part of my life growing up. I now have a cat of my own, my fur baby, Fish 🐱 I recently graduated from PA school and won’t be starting my job until August, which means I have lots of availability this summer! Spending my days with animals honestly sounds like the perfect way to spend the season. I’d love the opportunity to care for and spend time with your pets! (: I don’t start work until August, so I have a pretty open schedule and lots of availability! I do have one week-long vacation planned this summer, but aside from that, my schedule is very flexible. I’d prefer to handle most pet care during the week, but I’m available on weekends as well! 😊 It’s a single-story home, so I’m always nearby and able to keep a close eye on any pets in the house. We also have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and play!
“Great as always! Cats were happy and content when I got home - in fact, they ignored me. BTW, you did not have to take my garbage out to the curb for pickup — but i do appreciate it!”
“Josh did a wonderful job taking care of Mali. Mali took to Josh right away when he came for his meet visit which really put our mind at ease. He went above and beyond taking care of her. This was our first time using a rover but I will not hesitate to use Josh again. Mali was happy and well taken care of when we got home from our trip.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently own a 7 year old shepherd lab mix and a rescue Yorkie mix (age unknown but at least 5 years old). I grew up with dogs and have experience with many breeds and many mixed breeds. I have experience with oral medications and special needs as well. I live on a small hobby farm and own a horse, 2 mischevious goats, a couple kitties and some chickens along with my 2 rescue dogs. I grew up on a farm and have taken care of many farm animals as well as house pets. I am currently working from home and would love an opportunity to meet and help others with their pets while they are away from home.
“My cat loved having Savannah come over every day. This is the happiest my cat has been after I took a long trip. She also helped me out by bringing in some packages that arrived while I was gone. I would be happy to use Savannah's services again in the future.”
“Finding Bethani was like an early Christmas! She was absolutely wonderful - professional, kind, so personable, communicative, and our Bean Kitty adored her and the visits! This was our first Rover experience and we are incredibly grateful.”
About: Having lived with cats my entire life and currently caring for a senior orange cat, I am familiar with both the quirky and complex aspects of feline care. I understand that cats are not just "low-maintenance" pets; they require a caregiver who can recognize subtle signs of discomfort, respect their independent boundaries, and earn the trust of a shy cat. I am fully comfortable with: - Monitoring hydration - Tracking changes in mobility - Ensuring overall well-being - Engaging them with appropriate play that satisfies their hunting instincts without causing stress - Maintaining strict cleanliness routines, which are vital for the health of both senior and multi-cat households.
About: I have cared for my neighbors’ cats since I was a kid, along with my family’s own cats. I LOVE cats & adopted my own in college. I am patient with them, loving, reliable & respect specific cats’ needs. I just want to make them feel comfortable and loved!
About: I’ve had large dogs my whole life. From training a puppy to adopting a dog. Also taking care of healthy and pets who are sick or need some extra attention with medications or disabilities. I work full time as a nurse and am currently working on my masters. Taking care of your pets and walking them is a way I can relax and get outside. I ask that clients leave instructions on how exactly they want their pets cared for, and will follow those instructions exactly. Safety for your pet is my number one priority.
“I booked Harlie to come to my home daily to administer medications to my cats, and I truly could not have asked for a better experience. Harlie is incredibly responsive, kind, and professional. From the start, she was easy to communicate with and clearly takes her responsibilities seriously. What impressed me most was her patience and natural ability with animals. One of my cats has a significant fear of strangers, and I was genuinely concerned about how medication time would go. To my surprise, my cat was completely calm and cooperative with Harlie—no stress, no resistance. That alone speaks volumes. She has a rare, intuitive way with animals—honestly, a bit of a pet whisperer. Administering medications can be challenging, and she handled it effortlessly and with care. I would trust Harlie with any pet, under any circumstances. If you’re looking for someone reliable, skilled, and truly exceptional with animals, she is it.”
“Keisha was great watching our cat while we were away over the holiday! She provided great updates and was very nice when we met her beforehand. She's very easy to work with and I would highly recommend her.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Johnstown
“Bill and Mary are a great team that took care of our pup and showed him lots of love. We appreciated a "meet and greet" with their dogs and ours to ensure they got along okay. Our pup was able to play very well with their three dogs. From the way he came home tired, he had an awesome time playing with Bill, Mary and the other dogs.”
About: I have experience with both puppies and seniors. Includes potty training obedience training, dominance training. I’ve worked at a humane society and owned rescue dogs. My approach is to find each individual dog’s motivation to help them grow, learn, and mature. I currently have 2 dogs of my own and enjoy walking and taking them on adventures. I do community work within my school district and would love the added opportunities to fit my love for dogs in my routine more. With dogs non-verbal queues are very important in understanding behavior, needs, and temperament. I pay attention give them good food exercise is a must! When dealing with new dogs, speaking with the owner and what they want is top priority. Setting goals for our poochie pals allows a measurement for tracking success.
“Rommel can be pretty shy around new folks so I am always nervous about introducing him to new people. He also isn’t a very affectionate dog (he only likes being petted when he first wakes up, then he has has enough and doesn’t really want that). When I went to pick him up he was loving all over them. I haven’t seen him warm up to anyone as quickly and as completely as he did here. What a wonderful experience!”
“Alyssa was very responsive, sent lots of pictures/updates and Tucker is nice and tired after a full day of playing! Thank you for taking great care of our little guy!”
“Fantastic experience, very communicative and flexible, sent great pictures of my dog and even a video of her having a great time! Safe neighborhood and clean home, with a fun backyard for the dogs to play in. Cannot recommend them highly enough!”
About: Hi there! I’m Awia, and I’ve had around 25 years of experience caring for animals. I’ve shared my life with many wonderful dogs and cats, and I currently have a sweet Pekingese named Peking along with two cats, Lolli and Ashley. They’re all friendly, gentle, and used to having new furry friends around. I’ve also volunteered walking dogs at various animal shelters over the years—animals have always been a huge part of my life. I also have six wonderful children who absolutely adore animals. They’re gentle, respectful, and regularly nominated for Kindness Awards at their school. Your pet will receive extra love, attention, and cuddle sessions from them—helping your furry family member feel right at home. I’m currently working on my nonprofit organization, and during my downtime I’ve chosen to walk dogs and care for animals. It’s such a fun and rewarding way to spend the day—you get to hang out with adorable pups, enjoy some exercise, and soak up the sunshine. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for your pets. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I’m fortunate to live within a beautiful nature preserve and park system. This means your pup can enjoy walks along scenic, well-maintained paths with plenty of fresh air and minimal street traffic. If boarding, I’ll make sure your dog gets regular, safe walks and plenty of attention, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. All of my personal pets—Peking, Lolli, and Ashley—are up to date on vaccinations, and are on flea and heartworm prevention medication. For the safety and comfort of all animals, I kindly ask that visiting pets are also clean and flea-free. If a pet arrives needing a bath, I’m happy to provide one, and a pet bath fee will be added to your booking. This ensures a fresh, healthy, and pleasant environment for everyone.
“Fran’s ears go up followed by a cute little head tilt whenever I mention that it’s “time to go see Mrs. Laken” 😀 I can tell she really loves her days there and getting to hangout with Remy and Mouse, other pet friends and of course Bostynn ☺️ because she starts to get so excited as soon as we turn onto the street. I appreciate all of the cuddles and love my girl receives. Thank you from me and Nanny Fran.”
“Kyla did an amazing job with Finn! He had a great time and came home worn out every day. Kyla communicates well and I love the updates she sends during the day. It reassuring our puppy is in safe hands and cared for during every stay with Kyla. We will definitely be booking with her again!!”
“Tina was as good for me as she was for Tommy! I had a pretty busy, stressful day ahead of me and she took a lot of my problems away by giving me a safe place to leave Tommy where he could play and be kept busy while I got my things taken care of pretty efficiently. Her compassion and kindness will not be forgotten.”
About: I grew up with a black lab, Macey and a Chihuahua mix, Tootsie and took care of them from when I was young until around the age of 16 when they passed away. I also regularly dog sat 5 dogs at once- all with specific needs, diets and medications before the family moved away. I am comfortable with high energy dogs, I will happily administer medication, and we have 2 acres of fenced in land for your dog to run and play! I am a flight attendant so my schedule varies- usually I work 3-4 days a month and they are never the same. Request and I’ll accept if I’m not flying that day, but other than occasional work I’m pretty much always home! I would love to have a dog but because I’m a flight attendant I know I couldn’t give it the consistency and love it would need- however, on days I am home I would LOVE to have a furry friend to play with. We would be happy to host your dog(s) and let them run around our fenced in back yard, explore the barn, and roam the house. We only accept dogs that are good with children and that are potty trained. We have a large kennel if your dog is crate trained and you would like us to use it, but as long as it’s good with kids it’s free to explore. We can administer medication, give treats, and share lots of love and we hope you’ll trust us with your beloved pups ❤️ P.S. my favorite breeds are corgis, labs and golden doodles :) but I’m not picky, all dogs will receive equal love 😉
“Sally was so great with my pup Marge. I have a really hard time finding people I trust with her, as she is a bit reactive and can be a little mischevious ? Marge was so excited to go back to her house, and Sally kept me informed with updates all throughout the day that brightened my work day. I’d definitely recommend her!”
About: I grew up with a large golden retriever and small mixed terrier for 10+ years until I went to college. I have just graduated college. I am not able to get a pet of my own yet, but I would love to help you with yours. I LOVE dogs. I have a huge heart and lots of patience for any breed. (Updated: May/June 2026) I am a teacher, so I have summers completely off, and I get home early on school days. I am already a very active person who goes outside to run or walk every day, so adding in your dog is perfect and enjoyable for both of us! I typically go for a run/workout for about 2 hours in the morning in the summers, but am free to be with your dog the rest of the day (Updated: May/June 2026) Located in New Albany/Westerville area. While I live in an apartment, we have 2 dog parks, lots of open grass, and I am always looking for an excuse to go to the 6 minute drive park with a dog walking trail near me or one near you. Your pet would love it! I am willing to do a meet & greet ahead of time. For safety reasons, I am only willing to care for 1 dog (or 2 from the same family) at a time. I am happy to send several updates/photos per day as you desire to confirm your pet’s health and happiness.
“Katherine took great care of my pup. She took her on a long walk and even to a stream. I really appreciate the attention and care she provided. Thank you, Katherine!”
“Zach is so patient, calm, caring, consistent, and loving with our puppy as though he were part of his own family. I am more than comfortable and confident leaving him for a day with Zach and his pack!”
About: I feel that they have such a beautiful and special connection with their owners, which for me is something wonderful and I know how difficult it is to leave it with someone else, but with me your pets will be in good hands. With my fur baby your baby will have a good game time! I work from home so I will have plenty of time to attend to your fur baby needs. I am available for booking on weekdays and weekends at any time I have a patio with a roof where they can play all day and spend their energy, I also have everything your baby needs like food and water bolw, bed and a cage if need it
“Shannan is excellent at communist and was willing to work with me on drop off and pickup timing, which I really appreciated. Bonus points for having prior experience working at a doggie daycare. Really helped to facilitate a smooth transition for Serena. Best of all was the fact that Serena had a giant smile on her face when I came to pick her up! Thanks so much Shannan!!!”
About: Growing up I have always cared for our family pets. Today I have 3 rescue dogs of my own. My pups are apart of my family. I volunteer to transport dogs to a safe homes. Animals of any type depend on their humans to care for them. When their humans can’t be there for some reason they still need that special care and attention. I have always struggled when leaving my dogs to go away. What do I do with them? Who will care for them like I do? I would like to help people to be at ease knowing your pet will be well taken care of in my hands because I understand what it is like to have that worry. I will care for your pet as though they are mine.
About: Hi, I’m VJ. I work from home most of the time, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I have two dogs of my own: a 6-year-old female Bernese Mountain Dog and a medium male Goldendoodle. Both are gentle, submissive, and friendly with other dogs. My Bernese especially has a sweet “mama bear” personality and is very nurturing around other pets. My home is calm, dog-friendly, and comfortable. Pets are allowed on the furniture, and I want visiting dogs to feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family while they are here. I live in a quiet neighborhood with very little road noise, and there is a large community park close by where I can take dogs for walks, fresh air, and playtime based on their comfort level and your instructions. I’m best suited for dogs who are potty trained, friendly with other dogs, and not destructive in the home. I like to keep a peaceful environment, so I always prefer a meet-and-greet first to make sure your dog feels comfortable with me, my dogs, and the space. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I will follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any house rules you share. I’m also happy to send regular photo and message updates so you feel connected while you are away. Your dog will be treated with patience, affection, and respect in a safe home environment. I work from home most of the time, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day for potty breaks, feeding, playtime, walks, and supervision. I can give dogs plenty of attention and keep their routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. Your dog will be cared for like part of the family in a calm, dog-friendly home. I have two sweet, submissive dogs who are used to being around other pets. My Bernese has a gentle “mama bear” personality, and my Goldendoodle loves to play fetch. I have an invisible fence for my own dogs, but I do not rely on it for visiting pets. Guest dogs are supervised outdoors and taken out on leash unless we discuss and agree on a safe routine together. I always prefer a meet-and-greet first to make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe. I also like to follow each dog’s normal feeding, potty, walk, playtime, and sleep routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed and cared for while you are away.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Johnstown
About: I’ve had a love for animals since I was little. Growing up, I spent time on my uncle’s farm, helping care for everything from dogs and cats to larger animals. For the past two years, I’ve regularly pet sat for friends and family—feeding pets, letting them out, talking them on walks, giving them plenty of love and attention, and often staying overnight to keep them company. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. My schedule is different every week, some weeks with less time than others. My weekends are usually free with plenty of time to come and take care of your pets. I make sure to take note of all things that the pet owner has told me, keeping everything in mind. I like to keep in contact with the owner to make sure they know their pet is in good hands.
“Elizabeth has cared for my dogs and cat many times over the years! She always goes above and beyond!!!! I highly recommend her! She is responsible.... caring and loves animals! She is 100 reliable!”
About: I have taken care of animals ever since I was little. We used to have a golden retriever and I had a lot of responsibility for him. We now have several cats who are all very needy. I always make sure they are taken care of. Additionally, I love taking care of my brothers dogs, which are the dogs in the pictures above. I am currently working part time, so my schedule can change from week to week. If I am working I can take breaks and provide potty breaks. I will use all available resources to make sure your pet is as comfortable and cared for as possible. I am very good at understanding what they want/need by their actions.
“Cameron was great. We had a last minute change and could not take our puppy out like we normally do on lunch. She was quick to respond and was accommodating on short notice. She went above and beyond to make sure our puppy was comfortable when she put him back in his crate. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: I have been helping care for my beagle, Chance, for 9 years. I have taken care of dogs while babysitting. I know how to prepare food, control a tugger of a dog on walks, and give pets the love they deserve. My own beagle is somewhat disabled with full use in only 3 legs. My experience is in dogs, but I also love kitties. My days are very flexible and open. Mon and Wed I am unavailable from 7pm-9pm. Tuesday I am unavailable 7:45pm-8:30pm. These times do not include travel time. After August 22nd, I will no longer be in Ohio due to school. All care will be done within clients house, with the exceptions of walks or dog parks. I am also available to drive your fur babies if necessary. I will always check the water dish and feed on time.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover with extensive experience managing a diverse, multi-species household. I currently own and care for a 6-year-old beagle, a 10-year-old senior (and orange) cat, four guinea pigs, and two rescue rabbits. My daily life involves balancing a high-energy hound with the specialized care required for senior cats and small animals. Having managed this "mini-zoo" solo on numerous occasions, I am highly organized, observant of subtle health or behavioral changes, and strictly dedicated to following established routines. Whether your pet is a social pup or a shy rescue bunny, I pride myself on providing patient, attentive care that respects their boundaries and keeps them happy in the comfort of their own home. My schedule is highly flexible! As a college student taking online summer courses with only a very limited part-time retail job (1-2 shifts a week), I spend the vast majority of my day at home. This allows me to provide consistent companionship, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention for your pets. As a Type A student, I approach pet care with a "safety-first" mindset. I am CPR and Heimlich certified, ensuring I can stay calm and act effectively in an emergency. My 3.6 GPA reflects my discipline; I follow your care instructions and medication schedules to the letter, treating your house rules as my top priority. I am diligent about double-checking locks, gates, and alarm systems to keep your home and pets secure. I also offer frequent photo updates and clear communication so you never have to wonder about your pet's well-being. My goal is to leave your home exactly as I found it and your pets more relaxed than when you left.
About: I have had a dog ever since I was born, and am now 23 years old! I helped train my newest dog, so I have a lot of experience in puppy training. My last dog unfortunately had to have her leg amputated when she got older, so I also have experience with disabled dogs. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter for years, so I am good with all kinds of dogs- big and small, anxious and energetic, etc. Whenever one of my friends is out of town, I am their go-to pet sitter. I pet sit for a lot of my friend’s cats, so while I’ve never had one, I know how to take care of them. My dog, Rosie, is my entire world, so I know how important your pets are to you! I will treat them as if they are my own :). I do have a full-time job, but it is very flexible. I am able to leave during the day if needed for your pet! My nights are always free too, so I am able to house-sit. Your pet will be my #1 priority in my routine! I will keep your pet safe with my life! I will ensure they are on a leash when outside and make sure they are comfortable and getting their exercise in. Inside, I love to play with them! I will ensure no doors are left open so they can’t slip outside to maintain their safety. But I will make sure they are having fun while inside!
About: I had dogs growing up as a child and have taken care of them on and off throughout my whole life, but some specific examples of pet care include: taking care of my Grandparents 2 dogs when they no longer could, taking care of my best friends dogs (and many cats) when she goes on vacation, & of course taking care of my 2 cats that I am currently a mom of (I have had cats throughout my whole adult life). I understand the importance of allowing animals to get comfortable with you and come to you on their own terms and not trying to force them to let you pet them or play with them. I am comfortable taking the time to slowly encourage an animal to be comfortable in my presence. I am currently working part-time while I finish my degree, so I am available fairly often to help take care of your beloved animals. I am extremely reliable and I am often available for last minute situations and happy to help. I have experience and am comfortable with dog walking, picking up waste, and crating dogs when needed. I am willing to assist with cleaning litter boxes as needed and am willing to take time to play with and give your animals attention and love while you are away from the home.
About: My 14yo Dachshund-mix has been in my family since her puppy years, and in her old age I wanted to maximize her health-span/quality of life. I walk her every day, make her food, and keep her strong with the occasional wrestling match. (: I have quite a wide range of availability, only working part time for the time being. I'm always hitting parks around me so your dog is in for some adventure! My apartment complex has a fenced in dog park to burn some energy in and possibly socialize. If your dog likes to run in the range of 2+ miles, I'm always looking for a jogging buddy. (:
About: Growing up on a 5-acre farm, I've raised all types of animals from cats to dogs or even pigs and horses. I have experience with shepherd dogs, pugs and bulldogs, st. Bernards and rottweilers, elderly pets, puppies and kittens, nursing and pregnant mamas, and so on! I also have taken care of horses, dogs, cats, and ferrets when house-sitting. My schedule is very flexible. My job requires time out of the office multiple times a day and I can always check in for a potty break. My evenings and weekends are always clear and if something comes up, I always communicate and have a back up plan. When I am taking care of your pet in your home, I will prioritize your family’s specific needs and respect any rules you have in place.
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is the genuine love and lifelong experience I have with animals. I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, and to me, pets are family. My own dogs are truly like my children, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. Growing up, we always had dogs in our home, and having animals as part of the family was something I always wanted to continue in my own life. Because of that, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, dependable, and caring when leaving your pet with someone else. I strive to create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets feel at home and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently home during the day, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. We have a fenced-in yard and a doggie door, so dogs are able to safely go outside whenever they need to, making it easy for them to stay active and comfortable on their own schedule. Our dogs are truly part of our family, so caring for animals is already built into our everyday life. They have their own routines and habits, especially at bedtime. Every night when we take our son upstairs for bed, our dogs follow right along. One of them is usually waiting by the stairs looking at us like, “Come on, it’s bedtime!” It’s those little moments that show how loved and comfortable they are in our home, and I want every dog staying with us to feel that same sense of comfort and belonging. When pets are in my home, they will be treated like part of the family—just like my own dogs. My priority is always making sure they are safe, comfortable, well cared for, and getting plenty of love and attention while their owners are away. I want pets to feel relaxed and at home in our environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I understand the importance of being respectful of both their home and their pet’s routine. I will follow any instructions carefully to help pets stay comfortable in a familiar environment while also maintaining the same level of care, attention, and safety. No matter where I am caring for a pet, I believe trust is the most important thing. Animals need to feel safe with the person caring for them, and I always strive to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment for every pet I look after.
About: I have experience with both puppies and seniors. Includes potty training obedience training, dominance training. I’ve worked at a humane society and owned rescue dogs. My approach is to find each individual dog’s motivation to help them grow, learn, and mature. I currently have 2 dogs of my own and enjoy walking and taking them on adventures. I do community work within my school district and would love the added opportunities to fit my love for dogs in my routine more. With dogs non-verbal queues are very important in understanding behavior, needs, and temperament. I pay attention give them good food exercise is a must! When dealing with new dogs, speaking with the owner and what they want is top priority. Setting goals for our poochie pals allows a measurement for tracking success.
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I find joy training puppies and older dogs (if they'll allow me to of course). I enjoy being outside more than inside and being able to see the doggos smile just for being outside. I'm a flexible mom of 2 whom both play sports, travel and for their school. I adjust my time around my families schedule which gives me a lot of flexibility during school hours and most evenings. I will care for your animals as if they were my own. As a mother, nurturing is something I love to give to those who cannot speak for themselves. I believe all animals play a very important role in all families whether it be service animals, friendship, to travel buddies.

“Emily was very attentive to Mishmish's needs! She sent lots of pictures and treated him like part of her furry family. I absolutely would recommend Emily to anyone looking to board their dog in a private home.”
“WOW!! I dont even know where to begin. As a first time user of Rover, I was unsure how it would go, and Joe exceeded every expectation I had. He was kind, responsive, and made all of us feel so comfortable throughout the process. Manny looked right at home in all of the pictures we sent and I’m pretty sure he would have stayed with Joe indefinitely if we let him 😂 Thank you Joe for an amazing experience and peace of mind while we were on our trip!!!”
“I can't say enough good things about Samantha! Leaving my dog, for the weekend is always a little stressful, but she put my mind completely at ease. From the moment I dropped Kevin off, I knew he was in good hands. Samantha went above and beyond in caring for kevin. I especially appreciated the pictures and videos she sent – it was so reassuring to see him happy and having fun. It really helped me relax and enjoy my weekend knowing He was being so well looked after. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog watcher. I'll definitely be using her services again in the future!”

“Oh my!! Will and Bibiana, are the absolute best! We called them literally at the last minute made a booking they accepted the booking for our Charlie. This couple is awesome!!!! Very nice, very friendly, immediate welcome our Charlie with his disability into their home. They showed no hesitation to just make him feel welcome. Very professional , house is a place that you would want your very family taken care of. Our dog Charlie is a special needs dog. They didn’t even hesitate to say that they would take care of him as we had a funeral for my husband‘s uncle today in Cincinnati. Thank you, thank you, thank you Will and your lovely wife. We appreciate you so very much and we will be booking with you again! If you’re looking for a great place for your extended furry family consider Will and his lovely wife Bibiana. I HIGHLY recommend them! I love that they sent us videos of Charlie sitting in the window, watching the cars go by along with another dog and they was just having a good greatest time just looking out the window although our Charlie was barking at everything he saw, but the other dog tend to look at him and say, what are we looking at bud.🤣🤣”
“Leslie watched our 8yr old Golden Retriever in her home for the weekend. Our experience was absolutely outstanding! She has the perfect fenced in backyard for your dog to roam. She goes over how to care for your dog by sending a Q & A of your dog needs. She makes sure each dog is up to date on all shots and vaccinations and is able to administer medications if needed. The introduction to her home was just as fabulous! She has a meet and greet with the whole family and her adorable Golden, Shiloh. She takes every necessary step to ensure not only your fur baby is safe but is safe to have in her home. Our Golden even slept next to their bed at night because of her separation anxiety,she truly treats your pet as her own! I will be using her services again and will recommend her to anyone who would like to have their pet loved and cared for while you are away.”

Amy was amazing at sending me updates and pictures during Ivy’s stay. I would 100% use her again in the future!”

Mocha enjoyed the companionship of the other dogs as well Jamie's family. We felt at ease with everything from the beginning and would highly recommend Jamie to care for your pet.”
