Personalized care for your dog or cat - Justus
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Justus
“It was the first time I left Kayla with anyone. On our meet and greet I felt very comfortable with Patti and knew she would take good care of my girl. Patti took excellent care of her. I booked with her because she only takes one pet at a time and she had a fenced in backyard. Patti sent me photos of Kayla fetching her ball which is her most favorite thing. I will definitely use her again.”
“We felt like we were leaving our pups with a friend. When you take your pups even to the best boarding spas they can never get the the attention and care our pups received and you would have to pay extra. Viki has lots room inside and out for them to run around and play. She will keep you updated as often as you like. We will definitely be using Viki again. Thank you!!”
“Skye had a great weekend with Gail. It was her first time staying at a strangers house and Gail did a great job welcoming her. Gail was patient with her as it takes Skye a little while to warm up. Gail sent us pictures each day and was quick to respond when we had a question. We will definitely use her again in the future for Skye.”
“Melissa was fantastic. Easy to communicate the booking process with, sent me updates over video and text throughout the weekend and even accommodated my Hershey girl who can be difficult with other dogs. I will absolutely be returning to Melissa in the future.”
“I can’t thank Kirsten enough for the excellent care she gave our two “girls”. Ginger is elderly and has special needs so finding someone who is willing to take on that challenge is a real blessing to me! I will most definitely use Kirsten again as I have complete peace of mind when my girls are in her care!”
“Doug was so thoughtful and kind with Milo — he truly enjoyed his stay at Doug’s home. I highly recommend him with my eyes closed! Very friendly and attentive, he always kept me updated about my puppy. Always willing to walk him and take care of him — thank you!!! Without a doubt, I’ll be reaching out again to leave my furry one with him!”
“Melissa was amazing! I was nervous to leave my dog I’ve never left her with a stranger before and as soon as I met her I know it would be good. She gave me daily updates and pics which I loved and felt at ease on my vacation. Will def be booking her again if needed!🩷”
“Kristin was great and provided Abby with a safe, family environment with lots of stimulation. It's harder with a puppy who is just learning about life (and where to poo/pee!) and this was an unscheduled trip for me, but Kristin came through. Thanks, Kristin!”
“Aricka was so wonderful with our lazy old lady of a dog, and we got tons of updates and photos -- it was a huge relief while we were away that our dog was in great hands. Thanks so much!”
“Savannah was great! She welcomed Charlie with open arms and an open heart! Couldn't have asked for a better caretaker! Five stars just doesn't do her justice...should be ten stars! Thank you Savannah and family! Kathryn and Milt”
“Athena is so kind and so compassionate, my dogs loved their time wither her & her family. They loved their new friend Rufus❤️ communication was outstanding, lots of pictures. It was such a comfort knowing how well cared for and loved my boys were while I was away. They were part of her family ❤️❤️❤️”
“As usual we very much appreciate Nathan and Jenna and their approach to watching our dog. She is part of the family and returns home happy. Their communication is excellent and responsiveness with a regular cadence of updates on how she is doing.”
“Rikki has been fabulous! She has had our little 16 year old Yorkie multiple times now and all has gone quite well. He doesn’t even get anxious when we drop him off. On his last visit he had an itchy spot which he scratched too much and Rikki knew just what to do! We feel super comfortable leaving our boy with her.”
“Theresa and her husband took such great care of our Niah on a last minute request. Niah hasn't stayed with too many strangers but Theresa and her husband did such a great job making her feel comfortable and making sure she adjusted and keeping me updated! I would highly recommend them for your fur babies!!!”
“George was so good with our dog Ziggy. Our dog is a very anxious dog, so we worried how it would go- we had no worries with George taking care of him! Ziggy liked him right away and had a blast playing with him in the fenced in backyard. George made sure to spend a lot of time with Ziggy and sent us pictures and updates. 100% would recommend George!”
“After meeting Alicia I knew our dog was in good hands. Leaving your dog with a stranger is not easy, but with a fenced in yard and other dogs of her own, I knew our dog would be properly cared for. Alicia provided us with updates, photos and even went the extra mile trying to conquer our dog’s hunger strike each time we leave him. It’s nice to know other people are willing to love your pet the same as you would so you can enjoy some time away from home. We’ll be back!”
“First time using Rover (recommended from a family member). From first experience with Rover and first sitter, I am very impressed! Sauddi and my cats got along very well. (They are friendly to everyone and will not go near people they sense are problems.). She provided daily videos, images and messages to update their status. She definitely did a fantastic job and, recommend her for a cat sitter. Gentle and kind. Thank you so much, you were a big help! 😊”

“Diane is an excellent pet sitter! She was very communicative while we were gone - sending photos and updates on how our kitties were doing. She cared for them like they were her own. The litter boxes and house were in great shape when we returned as well. I highly recommend Diane!”
“This was my first time using Rover. Emily was very responsive and professional. She was prompt and did a great job with my kitties. I would use Emily again for sure!”
“Alicia took excellent care of my senior cat Callie. She provided daily updates and pictures which gave the reassurance I needed. I would have her back in a minute. Thank you Rover for hiring her. I would say she is the top pet sitter!! Linda”
“We were a first time Rover user and Kristin was outstanding. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She took great care of our cat during the scheduled drop-in times. Highly recommended!”
“Isis was great with our old and big girl! Our dog has a hard time with our couple of steps and Isis came over to help take her out and in while we were away. She was kind and patient and did what we needed. We are very happy we booked her and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Rebecca did a terrific job! The animals were well taken care of and they love her. The next time I go away, I'll be contacting Rebecca to take care of my pets! 🙂”
“I would definitely recommend Cassie anytime! Teddy really took to her and he is a difficult one to take to people! She was very attentive to him and he had a great time with her!”
“Lillie did a fantastic job caring for my 2 dogs with drop in visits. She was polite, professional, attentive and kept me informed the whole time. I arrived home to two very happy corgis!! I would absolutely recommend her and would book again for future visits. Thanks so much again!”
About: I have been caring for dogs and other animals for as long as I can remember. I have experience caring for my mom’s coworkers’ dogs, neighbors’ pets, and animals of different sizes and personalities. I have provided overnight stays, regular check-ins, walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m comfortable following specific routines and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m happy to make time for your pets. I have a flexible schedule and can provide walks, check-ins, playtime, feeding, and overnight care depending on what your pet needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where your pet can feel relaxed and cared for. I always make sure pets are supervised, have plenty of attention, and have everything they need. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you provide.
About: I have taken care of fur babies since as long as I can remember! I’m currently a dog momma to a rescue named Louie, but before that I have helped care for multiple dogs and cats in my lifetime. I come from a family of animal lovers-they currently have a tortoise and a dog as well! I have house sat/walked for numerous families in my hometown, and I am looking to care for animals while in graduate school! I am a current student within the Duke school of medicine and I have a pretty flexible schedule with my afternoons free almost daily. Outside of classes, my research is on my own schedule which allows me to take care of furry friends! I am also the owner of a very sweet, very loving dog named Louie! *If you are booking house sitting* IMPORTANT TO KNOW: Since I am also a dog owner, if house sitting is a service that is being booked-you must understand that I will be bringing my dog Louie with me to house sit as well. We are a package deal! Louie is the sweetest dog you will meet and gets along great with every dog or cat he has met. If your animal may not get along well with him, or you would not want my dog in your home then please do not book a house sitting service with me! All other services I am more than happy to provide without my dog present!
“Aaliyah was fantastic with Oliver! She was reliable, caring, and even took the time to administer his insulin properly each time that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Oliver was happy, healthy, and well cared for the whole time. Highly recommend Aaliyah to anyone needing a trustworthy, attentive sitter, especially for pets with medical needs or in general!”
About: Hi! Thanks so much for stopping by my profile! i’m a stay at home mom of a 1 year old! we love to go on walks and be outside and would love to use that time to help some families with their animals! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, our home was always full of at least a few dogs or cats and i was always helping out neighbors and friends with pet and house sitting and have loved every minute of it! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you truly trust. I’ve used Rover to find care for my own dogs, so I understand both the excitement and the nerves that come with leaving your pets in someone else’s hands. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. Before booking with new clients, I like to schedule a phone call. It gives us a chance to get to know each other, lets me learn about your pets routine, and make sure we’re a great fit. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I also offer house sitting, but I’m unable to stay overnight in clients’ homes at this time. If your pet is comfortable being alone overnight, I’d be happy to provide care during the day with visits tailored to their needs. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and become someone you can count on whenever you need dependable, compassionate care. ❤️

Perfect for high energy dogs - Justus
“Stephanie and Amanda were fantastic. 10 Stars as 5 is not enough. Great communication with easy drop off and pickup. Sent me pictures throughout the day. I’m definitely going back again.”
“Our pup Maggie was in great hands with Kirsten J. We have never left her alone or have had her boarded with anyone until now. Communication was terrific and Maggie came home happy and exhausted from playing all day long 🙂 we will definitely have Kirsten watch her again in the future.”
About: I have extensive experience in pet care, including dogs, cats, birds and reptiles. I am passionate about animals and knowledgeable about their needs. You can trust that I will provide loving and attentive care for your pets. I only board one dog at a time so I can provide each guest my full attention, individual care, and a calm, stress-free environment. As a retiree, I have a flexible schedule and available most of the time. You can count on me to be there whenever you need me. I offer flexible pet care services, whether in my home or yours. I have extensive experience in caring for dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I am well-equipped to meet the unique needs of your pet. In my home, your pets will enjoy a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of space to play and relax, including a fenced-in yard. I only board one dog at a time so your dog can have my full attention, individual care, and a calm, stress-free environment. I provide personalized attention, ensuring they feel at home. Regular feeding, exercise, and playtime are part of the daily routine. In your home: I can come to your home to care for your pets, maintaining their familiar surroundings and routines.
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve self-trained my own dogs and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, leave it, and leash manners (especially helpful for puppies and energetic dogs). I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures who requires medication, so I’m confident with administering meds and supporting pets with special routines or extra care needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly helped neighbors and friends with pet sitting and daily care. I’m attentive, calm, and safety-focused, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I also groom and bathe my own dogs, and while full grooming isn’t typically part of my services, I’m absolutely willing to help if an urgent situation arises. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of needs. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins, including hourly relief when needed, and I can do multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Because I’m home often, I’m also able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and routine support. Care looks a little different depending on whether I’m in your home or mine, but my top priorities are always safety, routine, and clear communication. I expect to communicate frequently during your pet's visit with me. In my home: For daycare or boarding, I require that dogs are crate trained, since dogs will be crated overnight and anytime I’m not home. I also require up-to-date vaccine records to keep everyone safe. I have two dogs of my own, so I carefully monitor introductions and compatibility. We do have a yard, but it is not fenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash. In your home: During our meet & greet, we’ll go over your pet’s routine in detail (feeding, potty breaks, walks, medication, etc.). I ask that any important care instructions are also listed in your pet’s Rover profile in writing, so everything is clear and consistent. I’m happy to follow your household routines as close as possible during the visit.
About: With over 25 years of experience caring for and loving dogs, I understand that every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, drop-in visit, doggie daycare, boarding, overnight care, or simply some extra companionship, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified, giving you added peace of mind while your furry family member is in my care. I also have experience administering medications, providing basic training reinforcement, and caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs. I welcome dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Communication is very important to me, so you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages throughout your pet’s stay so you always know how they’re doing. My home features a secure fenced yard with plenty of room to run, play, explore, and relax. Located on a quiet dead-end road, it’s a peaceful and safe environment where your dog can feel comfortable and at home. If your pet is happiest in their own surroundings, I’m also happy to provide care in your home. Maintaining your dog’s normal routine helps reduce stress and separation anxiety while giving you peace of mind that they’re receiving the same love and attention they get every day. Your pets aren’t just clients—they’re family, and they’ll always be treated with the same love, patience, and care I’d give my own. I am currently working from home and my availability is very flexible. I can assure that your furbaby (s) is in the best hands and I prioritize their needs above my own I have a fenced in yard with shelter and water. I live on a dead end road so very quiet and safe. Your furbabies will have fun running and playing outdoors and indoors! If you would rather me come to your home, I’m familiar with taking care of other dogs in the safety of their current environment including over night stays!
“Rupert had a great time staying with Kat. Her and her dog kept him entertained all day. She was very accommodating when we got stuck in traffic and where an hour late. I would have Rupert stay with her again”
“Communication was flawless. I felt safe knowing that they would be well taken care of. My dogs came home happy after spending a day with Josh and his two precious dogs. Thanks Josh.”

About: I've had dogs growing up, five of them being German shepherds and the other four being a lab and two mutts and a dachshund, and we've had tons of cats. We currently have two German shepherds and I walk them a ton and I spend a lot of time taking care of them, and then we have a dachshund who I just rescued from the place I work at. The place I worked at does dog boarding/daycare/training. I was a kennel tech so I just took care of all the boarding and daycare doggies. And on the weekends I also took care of all the training dogs when/if the trainers were away. I worked there for over year and loved it, only leaving because I started college and moved away. I have had to deal with so many different dogs and their personalities and I've definitely learned to have a ton of patience with the job. I have been working in general since I was 14. I started at some neighbouring farms, doing farm work so I could ride their horses and earn some money. I then did a couple restaurant jobs and then found the place I currently work at. I have done dog sitting and cat sitting before many times, sometimes for family or friends of family who I don't know but I am happy to help out. The most I have dealt with at one time was seven dogs in total. I have watched people's dogs get trained while at work and I have been trained to use an e-collar and a prong collar so I am able to use those correctly! I really loves my job, it means a lot to me I get to be in that environment and I'm depended on to keep them all safe and happy. And I am a second year student at Muskingum University, I am majoring in Animal Studies in hopes of having an animal conservation related job. I'm a college student and normally drop in between classes and have the rest of the day to tend to pet's. During the summer I am usually employed and work around my schedule At home I spend time walking the dogs mostly and hanging around the house with them. Every client I feel is different in how things are done at their home, so however you take care of your pets I'll follow

I currently have experience caring for my own dog and other family pets, so I’m used to regular feeding, walks, playtime, and attention. Depending on your needs, I can provide daily visits, walks, or overnight care, and I make sure each pet gets plenty of exercise, love, and supervision. I treat every pet in my care as part of my family. In my home or a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I follow each pet’s routine and any special instructions carefully, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

“It was the first time I left Kayla with anyone. On our meet and greet I felt very comfortable with Patti and knew she would take good care of my girl. Patti took excellent care of her. I booked with her because she only takes one pet at a time and she had a fenced in backyard. Patti sent me photos of Kayla fetching her ball which is her most favorite thing. I will definitely use her again.”
“We felt like we were leaving our pups with a friend. When you take your pups even to the best boarding spas they can never get the the attention and care our pups received and you would have to pay extra. Viki has lots room inside and out for them to run around and play. She will keep you updated as often as you like. We will definitely be using Viki again. Thank you!!”
“Skye had a great weekend with Gail. It was her first time staying at a strangers house and Gail did a great job welcoming her. Gail was patient with her as it takes Skye a little while to warm up. Gail sent us pictures each day and was quick to respond when we had a question. We will definitely use her again in the future for Skye.”
“Melissa was fantastic. Easy to communicate the booking process with, sent me updates over video and text throughout the weekend and even accommodated my Hershey girl who can be difficult with other dogs. I will absolutely be returning to Melissa in the future.”
“Melissa was amazing! I was nervous to leave my dog I’ve never left her with a stranger before and as soon as I met her I know it would be good. She gave me daily updates and pics which I loved and felt at ease on my vacation. Will def be booking her again if needed!🩷”
“Aricka was so wonderful with our lazy old lady of a dog, and we got tons of updates and photos -- it was a huge relief while we were away that our dog was in great hands. Thanks so much!”
“Savannah was great! She welcomed Charlie with open arms and an open heart! Couldn't have asked for a better caretaker! Five stars just doesn't do her justice...should be ten stars! Thank you Savannah and family! Kathryn and Milt”
“Athena is so kind and so compassionate, my dogs loved their time wither her & her family. They loved their new friend Rufus❤️ communication was outstanding, lots of pictures. It was such a comfort knowing how well cared for and loved my boys were while I was away. They were part of her family ❤️❤️❤️”
“As usual we very much appreciate Nathan and Jenna and their approach to watching our dog. She is part of the family and returns home happy. Their communication is excellent and responsiveness with a regular cadence of updates on how she is doing.”
“Rikki has been fabulous! She has had our little 16 year old Yorkie multiple times now and all has gone quite well. He doesn’t even get anxious when we drop him off. On his last visit he had an itchy spot which he scratched too much and Rikki knew just what to do! We feel super comfortable leaving our boy with her.”
“George was so good with our dog Ziggy. Our dog is a very anxious dog, so we worried how it would go- we had no worries with George taking care of him! Ziggy liked him right away and had a blast playing with him in the fenced in backyard. George made sure to spend a lot of time with Ziggy and sent us pictures and updates. 100% would recommend George!”
“After meeting Alicia I knew our dog was in good hands. Leaving your dog with a stranger is not easy, but with a fenced in yard and other dogs of her own, I knew our dog would be properly cared for. Alicia provided us with updates, photos and even went the extra mile trying to conquer our dog’s hunger strike each time we leave him. It’s nice to know other people are willing to love your pet the same as you would so you can enjoy some time away from home. We’ll be back!”
“Last minute booking and Jenna accommodated us. Nice big backyard. There was some bad weather coming and she asked how my pup handled storms. Very conscientious and made me feel more relaxed about leaving him.”
