“Gail did a great job for us while we were over seas. The girls had lots of attention and play time. Most important was that our one dog received all of her medicine daily. We worry about them getting everything they need. We will definitely use Gail again.”
“We can't say enough good thinks about Melissa but I'll try. Our Angie we adopted only a few months ago and we were very nervous about going on a vacation we had planned. Melissa treated our baby like a princess, daily videos and messages gave us so much piece of mind knowing she was loved and cared for. We will definitely use her again and recommend this site to anyone we know. Sincerely, Rhonda, Bruce and Angie Bella”
“My senior pup just got home from a wonderful weekend with Patti! He had the best care and we received regular updates and photos. My dog has vision issues among other senior ailments and needs medication at meals. Patti was so patient and helped him navigate the new space, always making sure he was safe. We felt so comfortable with Igor in Patti’s care and look forward to him visiting her again!”
“Kirsten and her husband were amazing with my Riley! Very accommodating to my multiple schedule changes and the sweetest people. Riley had fun playing with their dog Molly and I highly recommend! Will definitely use her again in the future for my dog sitting needs! ??”
“Some of the best dog sitters around! I truly don’t think you’ll find anyone more invested in keeping your doggy safe, cared for and loved. You MUST book with Vicki!”
“This was our Winnie’s 2nd time staying with Rikki and her lovely family. Winnie is a very pampered pup, Rikki goes above and beyond to make Winnie comfortable, even letting her sleep with them 🥰. Thank you, Rikki!”
“Cassie was great. She watched my senior dog and made sure he was comfortable during fourth of July fireworks and around other dogs. I like that she had children so my dog had plenty of people to play with. She was very accommodating considering it was a last minute booking on a holiday weekend. When i picked my dog up he looked like he had a blast while he was there and I could tell he was well taken care of. Thank you Cassie!”
“Aaliyah watched our 9 month old golden retriever while we were gone for a week. This was the first time leaving our dog and she took such good care of him! Charlie absolutely loved her (& she loved him) and her other dogs. We got lots of photos, videos, and status updates on how Charlie was everyday. We will definitely be rebooking Aaliyah the next time we go out of town!!”
“Kristin and her family were a great fit for our 4pack of crazy. Everyone was happy and even a little tired on the ride home. A clear sign that they had been "living their best life" as fur babies. Highly recommend and will definitely use again in the future.”
“Ozzie had a quick one night stay and absolutely moved the stay. We're from VA and had a 2 day stop to catch up with college friends. Ozzie is a 5 month old puppy and had lots of play time. When he got in the car he fell a sleep almost immediately. Thanks for taking care of Ozzie.”
“Louis was so scared and nervous the 1st day! I was seriously thinking about cutting my trip short and picking him up, but Doug was so patient with him that by the next day Louis was his happy self again. So thankful this was a great experience for Louis!”
“Suzanne watched my Lab for the weekend. She was great with sending pics and communicating with me! She took very good care of my Lola! I would definitely use her again!”
“Thank you Deanna and Maui for letting Remy hang out with you guys!! It’s so nice to not have to worry about how Remy is doing when we’re out of town! Deanna takes such good care of Remy and he has a blast playing with her dog too!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life! I’ve had my own pet sitting business I’m very passionate about pet care. Your pet will be safe here! Between me and my husband we’re almost always home.

We can gladly work with any schedule you may already have. I will care for your fur babies like they are my own. I love my pets like my kids they’ll be well cared for here!
“Aimee did an incredible job taking care of my dog! From the meet-and-greet we knew it would be a great match, but she sent lots of photos and gave my dog so much love I didn’t worry for a second while I was on vacation for a week. I’m looking forward to my next trip so my dog can go back and see Aimee and her family again!”
“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!!!”
“We love Alicia! So fortunate to have found her, and so is my Dog! She has excellent communication and checks in with you during the stay. Although it’s our dog, it’s still nice to have the updates. Thank you for being so good to him and us!”

“Cassie did an absolutely outstanding job with our two bunny boys. We were away for an overseas trip, but her attention to detail and care kept us worry-free!

“Eleanor has been AWESOME! We feel so blessed that she is looking after our furry babies when we are away from home. She takes really good care of them and she gives us real peace of mind while we are gone knowing they are being well cared for.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats my entire life and have experience with kittens, adults, seniors, and special-needs cats. I’ve helped rescue orphaned, injured, and medically fragile kittens, including syringe feeding, administering subcutaneous fluids, parasite treatment, and basic wound care. I have also worked extensively with feral kittens, helping socialize them and prepare them for successful adoption into loving homes. As a cat owner myself, I understand that every cat has a unique personality. Whether your cat is outgoing, shy, elderly, or requires extra care, I have the patience and experience to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. My background includes volunteering with animal shelters, rescuing stray kittens, and providing hands-on care for cats in a variety of situations. I even rescued kittens under a deck and removed bot flys larvae from their necks… I treat every cat as if they were my own and am committed to providing reliable, compassionate care, plenty of attention, and an stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
About: There has never been a time in my life without a cat in the house. I grew up in a rural area where people would dump kittens so we always had cats we took in, and once had to bottle feed a little of 7. We still have one of the cats from that litter she is turning 11! I have been cat sitting for family for years and often went to my neighbors house to clean the litter boxes and clean around the house. I currently have my own cat in my dorm I love him so much. We've had to give him eardrops, eye drops, and oral medicine so I am experienced with that.
“Rebecca was great with the animals as usual! She even sent pictures to me on how they were doing frdoing. She did a great job and I'll hire her again next time leave town. 🙂”

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.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Justus
“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.”
“With a new puppy and anticipation of an upcoming vacation, I contacted Rikki to set up 3 all-day "play" dates, one per week leading up to our leaving. This way, our puppy would get to know Rikki and her family (and vice versa) and her home, and also know that each time she was left there to play, I always came back to get her and take her home. Well, next week is the big "leave", and our pup Juliet has had those 3 weekly play days. Familiarity has been achieved by all, and I feel a lot better knowing she will be taken care of in a nice family home, a family that she already knows and loves... and we can feel at peace while on our vacation. Thanks Rikki! See you next week. <3”
“You will love having your pet stay with Vicki. She was very caring for our Maya. She sent pictures to assure us while we were gone. Do not hesitate to book your day care with her !! Thanks Vicki !”
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 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: We have experienced owning a 10 year old bullmastiff, two huskies, and a dog that we rescued from the river while we were kayaking. We consider every dog our child. I work from home for the last 6 years so the dogs have all day to play inside or outside. There is always someone at home with the dogs at all time. I have a fenced in yard and 3 very friendly dogs to keep your dog(s) company. I can also crate your dog(s) if needed. There is also a very nice dog path near my house if you want me to walk them.
“Echo had such a great stay—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the start, communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear she was in good hands. What really stood out was how flexible he was with scheduling, especially when we had an unexpected delay getting back. Instead of adding stress to an already hectic situation, he was incredibly understanding and accommodating, which meant a lot. Echo came home happy, relaxed, tired (which is not an easy accomplishment) and clearly well cared for (honestly, I think she might’ve been a little disappointed to leave her new babysitter 😄). It’s such a relief knowing there’s someone trustworthy and kind to rely on.”

“Contacted Leah the morning we needed care for my puppy while we rode the Polar Express. She responded quickly and was able to care for him even with the very short notice.

We enjoyed our trip with the peace of mind that our little guy was loved and cared for❤️”

About: Hi! I’m Corey — a pet-loving guy who truly understands how deeply animals become family. I’ve spent the last 15 years caring for dogs, including two beloved seniors who recently passed in 2021 and 2025. Betty, an English Bulldog who was “thicker than a bowl of oatmeal,” and Sadie, my blue-tick coonhound/beagle mix who was a true treat connoisseur with a heart of gold. Losing them has been incredibly hard… but also a powerful reminder of just how special the bond with a pet really is. Caring for other people’s pets has become a form of healing and therapy for me. I miss the snoring, the wagging tails, the playtime, and the pure happiness a dog brings into a home. Being around animals fills me with joy, and I pour that love right back into the pups I watch. I have hands-on experience with: • Senior dog care (medications, patience, mobility support, and gentle comfort) • High-energy dogs who need walks and structured play • Bulldogs, hounds, and every personality in between • Smaller breeds like Chihuahuas and Dachshunds Your dog isn’t just a “dog” to me — they’re family, someone’s whole heart. And while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same gentleness, humor, consistency, and affection that I gave to Betty and Sadie. I work from home and can provide exceptional care! Your dog is my main concern during the day and evening and will be spoiled and loved! I will treat your pet as my own and follow all instructions provided to me about your dog(s) routine and schedule. I truly care and want to make your experience easy and stress free.

I am able to accommodate dogs of all types and sizes and I communicate with owners by providing updates on the dog's progress. Depending on the arrangement, this can involve overnight stays and house-sitting. I have also cared for senior dogs and dogs with special needs! 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.

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

About: Animals have been a constant in my life, and over the years I've owned dogs, cats, rats, mice, guinea pigs, hamsters, and even hatched eggs via an incubator. That kind of variety builds real hands-on experience, a calm comfort around all breeds and temperaments, and a deep respect for the responsibility of caring for another living thing. What animals want most is attention, and that's something I have no shortage of. Your pet won't just be watched — they'll be engaged, cared for, and treated like family. Whether it's a walk, a feeding, or house sitting, you can count on me to show up and give your pet exactly what they need. My schedule is flexible and I can almost always make time — just reach out ahead of time. I'll follow any special instructions, respect off-limit rooms, and stick to whatever routine works best for your pet. My schedules pretty much open I could always make time if need be. As long as it's scheduled ahead of time my schedule is opened. I would care for their pets just as they would. Any special instructions of course I would follow. Any rooms that are off limits, limit the outside time etc

“Gail did a great job for us while we were over seas. The girls had lots of attention and play time. Most important was that our one dog received all of her medicine daily. We worry about them getting everything they need. We will definitely use Gail again.”
“We can't say enough good thinks about Melissa but I'll try. Our Angie we adopted only a few months ago and we were very nervous about going on a vacation we had planned. Melissa treated our baby like a princess, daily videos and messages gave us so much piece of mind knowing she was loved and cared for. We will definitely use her again and recommend this site to anyone we know. Sincerely, Rhonda, Bruce and Angie Bella”
“My senior pup just got home from a wonderful weekend with Patti! He had the best care and we received regular updates and photos. My dog has vision issues among other senior ailments and needs medication at meals. Patti was so patient and helped him navigate the new space, always making sure he was safe. We felt so comfortable with Igor in Patti’s care and look forward to him visiting her again!”

“Cassie was great. She watched my senior dog and made sure he was comfortable during fourth of July fireworks and around other dogs. I like that she had children so my dog had plenty of people to play with. She was very accommodating considering it was a last minute booking on a holiday weekend. When i picked my dog up he looked like he had a blast while he was there and I could tell he was well taken care of. Thank you Cassie!”
“Aaliyah watched our 9 month old golden retriever while we were gone for a week. This was the first time leaving our dog and she took such good care of him!

We will definitely be rebooking Aaliyah the next time we go out of town!!”
