“Julie and her family were excellent with my somewhat anxious dog Sammy, and made him feel at home from the beginning. She sent daily pics/videos. Highly recommend her!”
“So friendly, accommodating and helped to stay in touch with my little girl while I was away on work travel! Their dog and my baby became great friends! A loving home and made me feel ok while away from my puppy! ❤️?”
“Melanie was great taking care of our little Charlie. She gave him lots of attention and he really enjoyed being at her home. She also gave us updates on how he was doing.”
“Jessica took great are of our dog while we were away. The daily photos she sent showed that Sundance was comfortable in his temporary surroundings, which gave us peace of mind. She has a nice fenced yard where dogs can enjoy outdoors time. She was available for meet/greet and drop off/pick up. All went smoothly!”
“Margaret is amazing! Great communication, and lots of photos showing my pup was having a great time! You can tell Margaret really cares and treated her as one of her own! Highly recommend! 5 Stars!”
“Another fun stay with Lynn 😁. Tobi had a blast with Lynn and the other doggies!! Warm weather finally and was out enjoying the sunshine ☀️, fresh air, fetch, playing with the dogs, etc. She really keeps him entertained and mentally stimulated. Oh and the snuggles he loves 💕 so much! Got to say he was good and well tired when I brought him back home 🤪 🐾😴”
“Another wonderful stay for my pups. This was the first longer stay for my pup, Teddy and he can be nervous with new people. Seeing pictures of him playing with the other pups and cuddling with Susan and Jason made me so happy. I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter for my two dogs.”
“Mike and Regina once again exceeded our expectations! They really are the perfect hosts for your puppies. We had such peace of mind while out of state for a few days — the longest we’ve ever let our pup alone — and we loved receiving all of the happy pictures of the dogs they take care of, including their own! What a blast. Misho had a blast and is currently fast asleep. Your puppy will be well stimulated and cared for with Mike and Regina. Thank you guys so much!”
“Kyra was fantastic taking care of my mom's dog when she was in the hospital unexpectedly. He is a rescue and very skittish, but Kyra made him feel comfortable and right at home. She also sent photos and updates every day. Highly recommend Kyra for your furry family members!”
“Karin took great care with my 5 month old puppy, sent photos and was great at communicating what Daisy was doing. It was nice that her dog got along with the puppy and she had a great backyard for the dog to run and play. You can tell that her and her husband love dogs. I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter. :)”
“Amazing dog sitter, would highly recommend. You can really tell that she and her husband care and love the dogs so much. So glad and reassured that Miso was in their hands for a week and had so much fun. Would book again for future trips!”
“Aspen was so great. I was nervous about using rover and leaving my dog with a stranger, but Aspen was amazing. She was very friendly and welcoming when I dropped my dog off; she told me that she would be to take Effie on a few walks throughout the day and that she might even take her up to the lake. She sent me daily pictures and updates about the walks she would take with my dog and just overall how my dog was doing. It was nice to get the updates/pictures while I was gone for the week and put me more at ease with leaving her. There was a portion of Effie’s stay that another dog was going to be there and Aspen was very accommodating and wanted to make sure it was ok with me that there was another dog there (it was), but she even offered to go to my home on those days to let Effie out if it was not. I would definitely recommend Aspen and would use her again in the future :)”
“Kirby had another great stay with Tom and Tolley! My only worry—he doesn’t want to come home when I pick him up. 😊 They are so good about sending pictures and updates every day and I know he is always getting the best care.”
“I always have peace of mind when leaving my pups with Sarah. I cannot recommend her enough. My babies are always in good hands with her. Thanks so much Sarah!”
“Jason was patient and thoughtful with our elderly dog. He made the accommodations we needed to meet his special needs. I was glad he was there for our dog while we were out of town!”

“Megan always does an amazing job with our two cats - she truly has a gift with animals. One of our cats is pretty timid with new people, but she has warmed up to Megan incredibly fast. Megan is very reliable, trustworthy, and communicates clearly. We have so much peace of mind knowing she is watching our cats - we will continue to use her services whenever possible!”
“Bethany was amazing! I felt great knowing she was checking in on my cat for the 3 and a half weeks I was on vk. I ended up extending my trip by 4 days and she had no issues being able to add that to her schedule. She sent updates and photos every drop in and even brought her own laser pointer to play with Captain! Highly recommended Bethany and will be using again if out of town for a long duration again. 😊”
“Veronica was wonderful! My cat is a little anxious with strangers and not used to me being away for so long, but she clearly made him feel very safe and comfortable during her drop-ins. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Kristi was very easy to communicate and work with. We felt very comfortable with her taking care of our three cats, and we would hire her again for sure!”
“Jules was amazing! We had several weeks out of town and were hesitant to board our cat for the time frame. Jules was easy to communicate with, flexible with scheduling times, and left great reports/photos that were fun to read when we were missing our Tabby. She also was kind enough to let Tabby enjoy some time outside when able (her favorite thing), and even bring in some packages that were delivered while we were gone. We felt very secure and were able to enjoy our time away knowing our home and pet were so well taken care of, I can't recommend her enough.”
“Katherine was wonderful! She was professional and flexible and our cat Butter loved her. I felt very comfortable having her look after Butter and will absolutely use her services again!”
“Very respectful and great communication! I live in a downtown apartment so there was a little more coordination required but it was very smooth having Jackie as a pet sitter! My two cats loved her and we look forward to having her again as a sitter in the future.”
“Leslie is amazing. She takes great care of our fur babies and always does a little extra that helps us know things will be fine while we are gone (water plants, bring in mail, etc).”
“Sophia is so sweet! She’s helped look after my cats during a few extended work trips and was happy to help when they needed medicine or special instructions. Now whenever I’m planning to be away, booking Sophia has become routine. The cats are typically shy but they sure like her and she goes above/beyond every time.”
“Julia was fantastic! She was kind, compassionate, and caring towards my kitties and she followed my instructions perfectly (since I have a cat that needs medication). She helped ease my anxiety, gave me updated pictures daily, and was quick to respond if I had any comments or questions. I will absolutely be using her services in the future!”
“When I say she goes above and beyond for your fur baby, I’m even underselling her. Arianna went above and beyond for my newly adopted 14 yr old cat, she did drop in visits for me over the weekend of July 4th. She was so attentive, so patient and so kind. She definitely helped Goldie feel so much better after a loud July 4th. Thank you Ariana!!!”
“Elizabeth was amazing!!! This was a last minute request and she couldn't have been more accomodating and easy to work with. You can tell how much she cares as her updates were always thorough. So happy to have found her, she'll be our go-to sitter moving forward!”
“Colleen was super attentive to Frances and her needs, dependable, reliable, friendly, and offers a very competitive rate. I would highly recommend her to amy pet owner. In fact, I have already booked another stay for my cat.”

“Abby was amazing with our coonhound and beagle puppy! Exercise is a big thing for him, and she made sure he was well exercised and played with! He had an awesome time!”

About: My husband and I own a very sweet, playful Great Dane/mastiff and a pure bred English Mastiff. We have experience with all kinds of dogs and other animals. We have a large finished upstairs where our dog loves to run and play. We have a large backyard that is fully fenced/gated. We walk daily (in nice weather). We have fun toys to play with and a whole room for your dog to sleep in (instead of a cage) but if your dog prefers a cage we have a huge one he can sleep in (or you can bring your own). I stay home so your pet will have plenty of company! We have three young girls who absolutely love playing with dogs. They are gentle and dogs always love them.
“Makenna was very sweet and took excellent care of Stella. Stella was not stressed out when we picked her up and we can tell that she was very comfortable with Makenna.”
About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and started watching dogs for family and friends while in college and couldn't have my own. I've enjoyed watching pets for my loved ones and now that I am in a house and working remotely I want to be able to provide my pet care experience to more fur babies. While the majority of my experience is with dogs I've also taken care of cats, fish, anoles, bearded dragons, rabbits, chinchillas, and hedgehogs. I'm open to caring for all sorts of animals and I'm able to be flexible with your needs. I work outside the house part time so when pets are with me they are my first priority and I only accept pets when I know I have enough time to give them all the attention they need. I have caged animals that I let out when I can supervise them so they house is animal proofed and anything potentially harmful is locked away. I have baby gates that can be put up to keep puppies/ elderly dogs from falling down the stairs. My back yard is enclosed on 3 sides by fencing and would be watched and leashed at all times when outside.
“We are visitors to OH and looking for someone to watch our dog Georgia for a day while we bike the tow path and ride the train. Aspen was amazing. She really put us at ease by giving us updates constantly and letti ng us know how our dog was doing. I cannot recommend her enough”
“We'd highly recommend Angie as a sitter! Our dog has pretty bad separation anxiety, and Angie made sure she felt comfortable while in her care. She's very attentive and provides lots of updates and pictures!”
“Super easy to get along with. My dog loved being able to go outside and run around and play with their dogs. They sent a lot of pictures and I know my dog had a great time!! Will love to use them again!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tom and Tolley (and their sweet and kind children) provided for Rudy! From the start, communication was excellent—they kept me updated and made me feel totally at ease. They have a great backyard that gave Rudy plenty of room to play and burn off energy. It’s such a relief to know Rudy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Tom and Tolley!”
“We are so lucky to have found Susan (and Jason)! Nugget had another great day and I’m always so confident he is safe and well cared for while I’m at work. We are grateful to be repeat customers!”
“Mary is so kind and truly loves animals. She was so kind and patient with my little puppy. She kept me updated throughout the day to ease my anxiety of leaving my dog for the first time. She also is very flexible in her schedule which is exactly what I was looking for. Excited to have Mary watch her again!”
“Nico had a great experience spending the day with Olesja. She sent lots of pictures through out the day, and was quick to respond when we reached out. Nico enjoyed playing with her dogs. She took amazing care of him. Really appreciate all the care and attention she gave him.”
“Wubbie seemed like she was right at home! Sarah kept me updated with lots of pictures and daily walk updates! I would love to have Wubbie stay with them again in the future when needed! Thanks so much for taking such good care of Wubbie!”
“Kyle was absolutely wonderful! He helped me and my family out in a pinch!! He treated our dogs like his own and was an amazing communicator! He went out of his way to pick up our girls and sent many pictures. Highly recommend and we will use him again! 😊”
“Erica is so patient, easy to coordinate with, and goes above and beyond to make sure Lucky has a fun day! She takes photos to send which makes me feel reassured he had a good day with her! thanks for everything! I appreciate it and will reach back out soon!!”
About: I have been walking dogs and pet-sitting for over 10 years now. I started walking dogs around the neighborhood and quickly demonstrated my dependability to clients. Through client word-of-mouth and recommendations, I started pet-sitting overnight. My responsibilities ranged from simple daily walks while clients were traveling to weeklong stays at residences, caring for several pets, watering plants, and doing light housework. I work remotely which allows me to be with your pet all day while sitting! This flexibility also gives me the opportunity for walks during the day and short notice care. I am very active so taking your dog out will be the best part of my day! I will follow any and all instructions you leave me for in-home pet care. I can assure you I will meet and exceed your expectations for pet-sitting. I will care for your pet as if they’re my own!
“Marshall and Pamela are amazing and steady working with Owen. They send me updates on how he is learning to socialize. I couldn’t be happier with them!”
“Samantha is awesome! We are preparing for a long vacation so we wanted our puppy to get to know Samantha a long stay. Onyx came home very tired from playing! Thanks Samantha!”

About: Ive been caring for dogs my whole life with my family animals and also pet sitting for friends. Im very comfortable with all breeds! Im your girl for long walks or extra snuggles.

I will care for your pet however you instruct me to. My goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as possible while you're away!
“Colleen always goes above and beyond for Mowgli! She is sure to be on time and give plenty of pictures and videos. She is so sweet with Mowgli and was so patient with him while he was getting comfortable with her at first. Mowgli is very lucky to have someone like Colleen available on days when I am not able to let him out. It’s so nice to know he is in great hands :)”
“Joe was great with communication, quick to respond, and treated my dog like his own during walks! He was accommodating to some of my dogs health challenges and limitations and willing to change up the normal routine to suit my dogs needs. Great experience!”
“I’m new to rover and was a little nervous but Thomas was so good with my pupper and communicated great! I appreciated his photo updates and him asking questions to make sure he was covering all his bases.”
“Our puppy Otter had another great week walking with Olesja. He is reactive to bikes lately and she worked with him on tuning them out and remaining cool as a cucumber, totally focused on her and their walk.”
“Katherine took excellent care of our two dogs and two cats while we were out of town. We got plenty of pictures and updates from Katherine's visits and everyone seemed very relaxed and cared for when we got home. We would absolutely recommend Katherine to anyone looking for dog walking/pet sitting services!!”
“Friendly, professional, and reliable. Chloe, you are a natural, and there are few people I could imagine so quickly trusting with the extra care and attention that Lola needs. Thank you!”
About: I have been around cats and dogs my entire life. I have been pet sitting for friends and family since I was 17. I am a huge animal lover and will treat your babies like they are my own. I have had experience for 10 years growing up with pets. When I was in high school I volunteered at my local animal shelter. I am currently a server at a restaurant. My work day does not start until 2pm at the earliest during the week. I am available in the morning for walks or drop in visits. I can even stop by after work if need be. I am a very communicative person and would ensure that any concerns you may have will be answered. I love takings photos and would be more than happy to send cute update photos of your pet throughout the day. I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own. Your house will be treated with the upmost respect while I am there.
“Makenna was tasked with walking my very energetic, young, German Shepherd. She did not disappoint! My dog seemed to love walking with her, and Makenna has been very respectful, patient, and loving to my dog even though they just met! Makenna follows instructions to a T, is very thorough with providing me with updates, and has the utmost respect to your property and your pet! If Makenna can handle the energy of my dog, and provide it with good mid day safe exercise, she can do it for any dog. I would highly recommend Makenna for anyone’s pet care needs!”
“Jeffrey is an excellent walker. He takes our dog on long walks and gets him nice and tired. He took the time to meet us first to make sure we felt comfortable with him and always takes the best pictures of our pup as well! Our apartment is a little difficult to access but he has been great working with the staff to get in everyday and we feel comfortable with him in our home. Would highly recommend.”
“James was very easy going and patient with my puppy Moka. He took her for a nice extended walk, fed her and most of all, allowed her to warm up to him before he took her out.”
“Ellen always does a wonderful job walking Quincy! He always has so much fun with her! She takes such good care of him! I will be booking more walks with her in the future!”
“Alicia did an excellent job, she was very patient, loving and caring. She showed much compassion towards my dog who wasn't as willing to go with her. She soon did and together they had such a great time on there walk. I would HIGHLY recommend.”

When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”

We’d absolutely trust them with Henry again and look forward to booking with them in the future.”
