“We felt very confident having our 14 yr. old sheltie stay with Tasha and Joe. The day before we were to take her to their house, our dog developed bloody stools and required an emergency vet appt. Fortunately, she only required meds and Joe assured us he would give her the meds required and watch to see if any other issues appeared. They sent daily pics and updates. I was also gkad to know they had other dogs as I feel she enjoys the social interaction and helps her settle in better. She returns next week for another stay.”
“Bradley was fantastic! He looked after our 4 month old golden retriever puppy for several days on short notice, which is something not every sitter would be prepared to take on. He was fast to respond to all communications and kept us updated with pictures and messages while we were away. We felt very comfortable that Ollie was well looked after. I would definitely book him again.”
“Katie was a perfect sitter for Nash! She gave him the attention and love he wanted, a great house to feel comfortable in and he almost didn’t want to leave!”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Amir took great care of our dog over the weekend! He was knowledgeable and thoughtful regarding the needs of our dog and made sure that he had the best care and experience. I would definitely recommend Amir to any other pet owners to care for their pets!”
“Excellent stay for my pup! She was loved and well cared for. I received pictures and updates the entire stay. Would highly recommend Jennifer and Robert!”
“We booked a drop-off time at 6am. Due to travel need, we asked to drop off about one hour earlier and Jenna allowed without hesitate. That was an early morning right after a busy July-4 evening. I really appreciate Jenna’s excellent servicing and would not hesitate recommending her.”
“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“I highly recommend Dion. He was very friendly and his dog was also nice to our dog. Dion was kind to send photos and showed my dog was doing well during his stay. I felt he was well cared for.”
“Elisheba was wonderful with my dog. She gave me daily updates on how she was doing and sent me fun pictures of the adventures they had while I was gone. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your pet as she has a true love for animals and she will welcome them into her home and take care of them as if it was her own pet.”
“Taylor and Brian were phenomenal in helping to take care of our miniature schnauzer, Hugo! Their candid pictures and check-ins made us feel like we were not far from Hugo; although we were several states away. I can’t thank them enough for giving us piece of mind! We will definitely board with them again!”
“Amira was great! She was easy to communicate with and was super flexible with our ever changing schedule. She took great care of our dog and I would love to have her watch Bunny again.”
About: You can count on me to treat your pet like another member of my family. Growing up on a farm exposed me to animals of all sizes from an early age and gave me a deep love for them. We always had dogs and cats, plus other animals. Because of this, I am comfortable administering medications to your pets and ensuring they get the love and attention you are looking for. I've had my rescue Pit, Rusty, for the past 5 years, and I love being a dog dad. I am a bit of a runner, so I am happy to take on high-energy dogs, whether that is for a longer walk or a good run. I am looking forward to helping you with your pet's needs and working toward being their new best friend! I currently work remotely as a freelancer and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule both during the day and evenings. I can host most weekends and live down from Eden Park. I'll do my best to work around your pet's needs and routine to meet you where you are! I believe in following what works best for your pet and reinforcing any behaviors/training you are currently working on with them. I also believe every pet should be loved and spoiled just like any family member. My day job is communications and marketing, so you can expect regular and consistent updates from me.
About: **Will wear a mask and sanitize before entering your home if requested.** I have been obsessed with dogs forever, and had a golden retriever for 15 years before she sadly past away in January 2019. I would like a dog of my own but I am not in the financial situation I would want to be in to be able to give my dog the life it deserves so I would relish at the opportunity to help care for yours! I have about 14 months experience working at a Doggy Daycare Center in Columbus that I sadly had to leave to pursue a Master's Degree in England. More recently I was an English teacher in Spain but I sadly had to return to America in March due to the global pandemic. I am more than comfortable watching 100+ dogs with 3-5 other employees and up to 30 dogs on my own. Naturally a home will not have that many dogs so there is nothing I cannot handle. I have experience administering pills via numerous mediums, shots of insulin, bathing, toe nail clipping/using a dremmel, separating dog fights, and the not-so-glamorous bits such as cleaning up every type of bodily fluid a dog can produce. My experience with special needs dogs ranges from a completely deaf Staffordshire Bull Terrier to senior diabetic miniature poodle that needed twice daily injections of insulin. I am in no way biased against any breed of dog and believe that all dogs are good dogs. I have experience with dogs varying from 2lbs. to well over 100lbs. My boyfriend and I are also the parents of two boy ferrets so I have experience with ferrets and feeding franken-raw for obligate carnivorous animals. :) Thank you for taking the time to read my profile and I hope I get to see you and your dog(s) soon!
“Highly recommend! My dog stayed here for a multiple day booking and had an amazing time. The sitter was fantastic and which allowed my dog to socialize and spend time around a friendly large breed dog, which was a wonderful bonus experience. It was great to see my dog so comfortable, well-cared for, and happily socializing. I will definitely use this sitter again in the future!”
“Misty was quick to respond with the initial setup. While she had our dog, she would send daily updates and pictures. Pick up and drop off was easy. Most importantly, our pet was happy!”
“We were very happy with Kim. She communicates really well and is great with dogs. We were using another sitter and we would get our dog returned a hot mess— but not with Kim. She is very kind, and caters to our dog’s needs and preferences to make their stay very easy and comfortable.”
“Fantastic boarding experience! My dog has separation anxiety and loved it there. He had a ton of fun playing with the other dogs and running around the backyard.”

“Nina did a great job with my little one. She asked so many questions that I honestly hadn't even given a ton of thought to during her first visit! Seemed like that had a great visit and I would book her again in a heartbeat.”
“Morgan was awesome. She is very kind. She took photos. She was very easy to communicate with. She was on time. I would definitely recommend her and use her again. I have two one year old cats.”
“Emily took great care of our two cats while we were away. She was always in communication, giving updates and sending pictures, and went above and beyond when we asked for extra help with small items. We were very comfortable knowing that our cats were so well taken care of. We will definitely book with Emily again. Thank you!”
“This was my first time working with Jeff and he took very good care of my cat, Carmella while I was out of town. He sent updates and photos on a daily basis each time he came to the house and watered my plants/flowers as well. He has experience with and a passion for animals, and I will have him take care of my pets again in the future.”
“I have so much anxiety leaving our cats, but Wolf made me feel so at ease! Their pictures and notes each day were wonderful and helped me enjoy my trip. We hope to book them again for our next travels!!!”
“Emma was very flexible, helpful, and patient with me and my kitties--especially when my plans changed. The little ones took to her more quickly than they have with others in the past which is a tribute to Emma.”
“Melissa is an amazing sitter. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our pets with her. She was very communicative and very sweet and our cats loved her. We didn't have to worry at all. She was very responsible and kept in touch with us the whole time. I really appreciated her hard work and service. I would highly recommend Melissa, she is definitely a great sitter.”
“Alison did a great job caring for my kitties! They seemed happy and well-tended to when I got home, and she sent great updates and pictures for me. I definitely recommend!”
“Lots of great updates, looked like they had great quality time together! Brought peace of mind to see pics of my kitty having such a fun time when I had to find someone to take care of her at the last minute”
“Meranda was kind enough to have a meet and greet with us before drop-in kitty sitting at our home over a long weekend. I quickly felt at ease allowing her into our home and entertaining our fluffy son! She was very communicative, timely, and clearly is a cat whisperer. We appreciate all the pics and videos too! Excellent experience and Señor Ignacio thanks her!”
“Brendan was a wonderful pet sitter for my cat. My cat is skittish but she adores Brendan. Everything I asked for was done accordingly. Will definitely request his service again in the future.”
“Kelsey was great! Our cat got sick during one of her visits and she stayed longer than she needed to, just to make sure our cat was doing ok. We really appreciated her professionalism and communication.”
About: Love cats, even though they don’t typically like to be held. Rover clients have said I’m a cat whisperer for shy unengaged cats. I have taken care of and owned many many cats.
“Alecia was wonderful! She’s great with communication from the start and throughout, and lets you know your loved ones are in good hands. She sends photos/videos and is responsive to your pet’s specific needs. We will be using her in the future! It’s also great knowing the house will be in good hands while away.”

“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”
“Jenny and her family were amazing!! They took care of my dog like he was their own. He had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Jenny also sent me awesome pictures of all the fun he was having. Thank you so much!”
“Dottie goes to Emma’s all day, 3 days a week and just loves it! She gets so excited as soon as we pull in the driveway! Emma is responsive, helpful, kind, gentle and great with my little dog!”
About: Hi my name is Patrice. I'm a veterinary technician who loves being with animals even outside of my normal work day. If I could I would adopt a million pets but unfortunately that's not an option. I take pride in being able to help care for pets outside of my own. There's nothing more fulfilling than being able to play with fur babies when the owners cannot do so because of work. I am able to provide exercise time, medication administration, ear cleaning, and basic grooming. If you are in need of any of the above services feel free to reach out to me. I would love to get to know you and your fur babies and develop a life long bond. Pet care fits into my daily routine perfectly. I'm always with pets even in my dreams. Rather I am walking pets or meeting up for grooming appointments, I'm always with pets. I get a background of the pets home life and mimic that while they are with me. Routine works best with most pets. When you switch up what they are used to they do not do well.
About: Early 40’s year old sitter/walker with car. You could say I have 40+ years of experience. My family had a German Shepherd from before I was born and I was very close to her. There has been a stream of pets in my family. Including so so so many cats in NYC. Even going so far as to “rescue” a half feral one. Currently, I share ownership of a dog. As a small business owner of over 10 years, I am able to have a flexible schedule and spend more time hanging out with your pet(s). That said, I have a lot of experience managing other people, and I do have high expectations for clear communication from clients. I have never had a complaint from clients that already have human children. I am very clear about the kind of care I offer. For example, I clearly state I can do 4-8 hrs for letting out. That does not mean that when I get to the sit, you tell me you expect every hour. I also do not cancel other bookings so that you can be the sole client. I have been through that, obliged, and the client was still dissatisfied. I am running a business and the new owner of this app runs on harsh algorithms that hide you in search. Let’s try to be better and more human, than conforming to private equity and their bottom line. For the fur babies, I can follow their diet and pet or play or brush their hair. As long as you give me a list or schedule, I'll do my best to provide it. I have extensive experience with pets at all stages of life. (As well as other kinds of pets which I am open to caring for.) I understand the care required for a wide variety of needs and can do my best to provide reinforcement on current training, but I am not going to be attuned right off the jump to the nuances noticed by your trainer or you... I can reinforce sit, lay down, paw, stay, heel, rollover, or anything else. I can administer medicine. I am not formally trained in pet CPR, but I am trained in human CPR and have looked at videos for pet CPR. When I was younger I worked as a lifeguard, and have a remarkable natural ability to stay calm and act fast in crisis situations. This comes in handy, for example: when protecting my maltipoo from other dogs, managing territorial behavior, or keeping one dog out of another dog’s bowl. My schedule is flexible and I have a car. I have a small business and partial responsibility of my dog, so I do need to be able to run errands, go to meetings, or check in at home to keep that part of my life running. For extended care, and distance further than 5 miles, I prefer be given the option to stay over at clients for the sake of gas costs, time, and energy. First meeting and approach are important to setting a precedent, I first see if the pet will approach me. I like to offer my hand palm down for them to smell. Sometimes it takes a few times smelling the hand before they feel comfortable letting me pet them. In my opinion it’s important not to mess up first impressions with the pet. Spending time together builds familiarity bonds, being attentive builds trust. It’s important to build rapport.
“Akita is professional, very responsive and amazing! My fur baby felt at home immediately. He even ate his food which he never does when he’s away from home. She was so accommodating and did such a wonderful job taking him on plenty of walks and potty breaks! He was so excited for day 2 daycare. I’m so happy I found a forever sitter for my baby! Thank you Akita!”

“Paige was absolutely amazing! From the moment we dropped off our pup, we felt confident that she was in great hands. Paige has a wonderful, open space where the dogs can safely run and play, and she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. It gave us such peace of mind to see how happy and well cared for our dog was. We’re so pleased with the experience that we’ve already booked with her again. We highly recommend Paige to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“Marlena was awesome! She was communicative before booking and provided updates throughout the day. Charlie had no issues hanging out with her for the day and enjoyed both a nice walk and downtime to chill.”
About: Hello! I’m a Part-Time working Momma and we love animals! I have grown to enjoy dogs mostly. I’ve had a pet dog for a great amount of my life as well as other animals like rabbits, fish and snakes! Size or age doesn't matter, they are all fun. I love their energy and seeing how they interact with loved ones. I frequently help out family members with their dogs which includes bathing, walking, picking up their food and medicine. Taking trips or “car rides” are also a fav’ we partake in. Dogs are truly a pleasure to have and I would love the opportunity to provide care to your fur baby! I have open availability now and have one kiddo! We are up pretty early for school/sports and events so I am pretty flexible with boarding/scheduling! I have a fenced in backyard with lots of space to run and play. I also have a finished basement for those that are potty trained.
“Leo went to his first daycare with Katie and he loved it! She greeted him at the door and welcomed him and made sure the other pups were away so he wouldn't be overwhelmed walking in. He loved it and can't wait for his next stay! He was definitely tuckered out from all the fun he had playing with the other pups. You can tell Katie knows how to handle things and is a dog-lover. We're so glad we found her!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets of many kinds since I could remember. Friends, Family, neighbors have all relied on me to walk, bath, and feed their pets.

About: Dear Pet Parents, I absolutely love animals — especially dogs! From tiny Pomeranians to giant Great Danes, I adore the kisses, cuddles, and happy tail wags. I share my home with several dogs of different breeds and personalities, as well as two cats, so I’m very experienced in managing different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. Because of this, I understand how important structure, supervision, and safety are when caring for pets. As a proud dog owner myself, I truly know that pets are not “just animals” — they are family. I will treat your fur baby like one of my own. Your pet will be loved, spoiled, and cared for in a safe, structured environment. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I promise to earn that trust. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can feel completely comfortable while you’re away. Please feel free to message me with any specific instructions, routines, or special needs your pup (or kitty!) may have — I’m always happy to accommodate. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby! 😊 Pet care is already part of my daily routine since I care for multiple dogs and two cats of my own. My day is structured around feeding schedules, potty breaks, enrichment time, and supervised play. Because of this, adding your pet into my routine is seamless and intentional. I prioritize consistency, supervision, and maintaining your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks, and I provide frequent updates so you always feel connected while you’re away. Safety is my top priority. I have experience managing a multi-pet household with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Pets are always supervised, especially during introductions and playtime. I can separate animals if needed and am comfortable crating when requested for rest or safety. I follow feeding instructions carefully and keep environments clean and structured. I pay close attention to body language to ensure all pets are comfortable and stress-free. Your pet will be treated like family while in my care.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for family and friends for as long as I can remember. I love going on walks and seeing new parts of the city and would love to have a companion on my adventures. Our family dog passed a little over a year ago and I miss having a pet in my life. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I am currently on summer break from work and would love to take care of your pet in my free time. My schedule is fairly open and flexible. I have a fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood and own a crate if needed for their comfort. I foster dogs so I have raised food and water dishes, a bed, and other essentials to make their stay comfortable.

“Kelsey was wonderful took great care of our Howlett! We’ve used her services several times and she does an outstanding job. We will always be customers of her and would recommend her to anyone.”
About: I have taken care of both cats and dogs. I love taking dogs on walks, long or short, and multiple times a day if needed. Or even if they just need to be let out in the yard and have a little play time! I have grown up around cats and understand all the little quirks that come with them. I would be perfect if they need a hangout buddy for a little bit! I always know how to find the pets at any function I’m at! I am able to do walks or drop in visits on the weekends and Fridays after 5pm! I know my availability says I am unable to during the week, however, if you are in a crunch and need some help after 5pm Monday-Thursday just reach out and I’ll see if I can be there! I have always cared for animals my whole life. I understand that a pet isn’t just a pet, they are family. You can trust me to look after and care for them as if they were my own fur baby.
About: I currently cannot have my own dog but I love taking care of dogs. I have been watching some family friends’ dogs taking care of them and their home while they’re on vacation. I’m currently working a job part time on the weekends but my week days are completely free because I’m a teacher who is off for the summer. I have a fenced in yard. I also do not have any pets but my boyfriend and I love dogs! We love taking care of other people’s pets because they all have different personalities!
“Abbey is our regular dog walker, so this review is in reference to an ongoing commitment/arrangement. Abbey has been excellent with our elder dog. She is reliable, communicative, and trustworthy. We have had no issues or concerns. We appreciate her and would recommend her services to others!”
“Libby is a great sitter! She takes my dog on neighborhood walks or if time and weather permit, adventures to a nearby walking path. She's easy to communicate with and has made me feel at ease while I'm at work! Thanks, libby”
“Danyul is hands down the best person we’ve ever worked with to care for our dogs. He was reliable, professional, and incredibly easy to coordinate with. Communication was always clear and timely, and he consistently showed up exactly when he said he would, which made scheduling simple and stress-free. What really stood out was how much he genuinely cared about the dogs. He took the time to understand their personalities and energy levels and handled them with calm confidence and patience. We have two high energy shepherds, and he did an outstanding job with them this past week, making sure they got plenty of exercise and attention. It was a huge relief knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We completely trust Danyul and will absolutely continue booking with him. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and experienced to care for their dogs.”
“Christina has been great with our dog, he is scared of new people and she has done so much to make him comfortable and open up to her. Our dog loves his daily walks now”
About: I am active and love taking care of pets. I am adaptable and can work in any setting while still being very organized and on task. I am currently a college athlete at Xavier University and manage my course load along with my athletic commitments. While I do have a lot going on I have lots of downtime away from sports and school where I would love to spend it helping people out. I have 2 dogs, ages 5 and 7, that live in my home. I live in an area with easily accessible walking paths and parks while also have a yard for dogs to play in.
About: I’ve always had a dog while growing up and have a true love for them! I may not have any pets of my own at the moment but I treat each dog as such. Since I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life I know the kind of love, attention and care they need and ensure to provide all of those traits for this I’m in the process of getting my real estate license so I’m currently working part time mostly at nights, which leaves my mornings and afternoons pretty available to check in/walk your dogs! My current place does not allow me to have pets, but from having my own dogs growing up I know the kind of care it takes to handle a dog in your own home! I would treat both your home and dogs with respect and give your dog the love you need for the time being
About: I grew up with cats and now also have a dog, and as a kid loved taking care of my dad's horse with him. I've always loved animals, so I jump at any chance to take care of friends' and family's pets, and have been paid to sit as-needed for over four years now. I have taken care of cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, and houseplants for a few days to a few weeks, and always make sure that I keep in contact with the owner for safety and to show them how their pet is doing. I've been on Rover for almost a year, and have found that with mutual trust and respect, taking care of any animal go from a task to a friendship. I'm a full-time college student in Cincinnati, so I sit for people on a case-by-case basis to responsibly balance my schedule and make sure that I can properly commit to someone's pet. During breaks I'm in Lexington and have a much more open schedule. When I go to clients' homes, I always make sure I get detailed instructions so I don't invade their privacy while caring for their pet. I can clean, do yard work, water plants; most anything I'm asked to do to fully take care of your pet and home. I interact with pets according to their wants, needs, personality, and schedule so that I can care for them in the way they need. Oftentimes I do homework in the house, especially if the pet(s) like calmer companionship, and make sure to love on them as much as they let me.
About: My experience goes back to being the go-to walker for our family dog as a kid to minding my cat today. It’s not unusual for me to meet a dog or cat and become acquainted in minutes I work from home with a flexible schedule. Therefore, I can be on-call at various times. I’m also used to fitting pet care for my cat into my daily routine. I make sure to follow all instructions laid out by the pet parent and get clarification wherever necessary, as well as communicate any issues that may arise.

“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“I highly recommend Dion. He was very friendly and his dog was also nice to our dog. Dion was kind to send photos and showed my dog was doing well during his stay. I felt he was well cared for.”
About: You can count on me to treat your pet like another member of my family. Growing up on a farm exposed me to animals of all sizes from an early age and gave me a deep love for them. We always had dogs and cats, plus other animals. Because of this, I am comfortable administering medications to your pets and ensuring they get the love and attention you are looking for. I've had my rescue Pit, Rusty, for the past 5 years, and I love being a dog dad. I am a bit of a runner, so I am happy to take on high-energy dogs, whether that is for a longer walk or a good run. I am looking forward to helping you with your pet's needs and working toward being their new best friend! I currently work remotely as a freelancer and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule both during the day and evenings. I can host most weekends and live down from Eden Park. I'll do my best to work around your pet's needs and routine to meet you where you are! I believe in following what works best for your pet and reinforcing any behaviors/training you are currently working on with them. I also believe every pet should be loved and spoiled just like any family member. My day job is communications and marketing, so you can expect regular and consistent updates from me.
“Highly recommend! My dog stayed here for a multiple day booking and had an amazing time. The sitter was fantastic and which allowed my dog to socialize and spend time around a friendly large breed dog, which was a wonderful bonus experience. It was great to see my dog so comfortable, well-cared for, and happily socializing. I will definitely use this sitter again in the future!”
“Misty was quick to respond with the initial setup. While she had our dog, she would send daily updates and pictures. Pick up and drop off was easy. Most importantly, our pet was happy!”
“Fantastic boarding experience! My dog has separation anxiety and loved it there. He had a ton of fun playing with the other dogs and running around the backyard.”
“Jenny is great! My dog had a blast with her and her family over thanksgiving and I love all the adorable photo updates. She is knocked out asleep from all the fun she had. Will book again!”
“Colleen was amazing with our pup! She was quick to respond to the initial request and was extremely accommodating for a quick meet & greet before confirming the booking (ensuring that we had peace of mind that our pup would be a good fit with her family!) During our time away, she kept us updated with lots of fun pics, which we loved! Roo seemed to have so much fun while we were gone that I'm not sure she wanted to come home!!! We are certain that if we're heading out of town again, we'll check with Colleen first before going to anyone else!”
“I've used Tasia multiple times for Ava and this time she watched Willa. Ava and Willa are VERY different and she did an amazing job. She sends pictures and videos often and puts me at ease with how my babies are doing. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”
“Repeat customer :-) My dog loves it at Lauren & Wynn's. They're so good to him and very kindly let him take over their bed and make himself at home. Always have peace of mind when I need to leave him there for trips knowing he has a safe and comfortable place to be that he enjoys”
“Kelti and Tanner are absolutely amazing! My dog had such a wonderful time playing with their two dogs! I was super nervous using Rover at first but Kelti really put my mind at ease. I know they treated Abbey like she was their own and I can’t wait to book with Kelti and Tanner again in the future. I highly recommend them - way better than boarding at a kennel! Abbey received love, attention, and plenty of play time at their house!”
