“The BEST pet sitter in the area! I’ve used several sitters and interviewed several more - without a doubt, her family treated my girl as one of their own! I had picks sent during her stay, and constant communication that shows she loves what she does ❤️. I even got a progress report and jump drive of videos and picks of her stay. My go to from now on! Thank you and I will be using you again, and again, and again 😍😊”

About: I have experience with many breeds and ages, and have been the primary carer for our current two dogs since birth. What can I say dogs just like me . Retired from my chosen career path now full-time homemaker. I currently watch our two pups and we would love a new friend to play with! I have a nice, big fenced backyard, and a fenced in front porch. My current dogs go out about every 2-3 hours during the day, but I can adhere to your dogs schedule if different. I often spend lots of time outside with my dogs, playing, and hanging out enjoying the day.
“Amber was amazing with my boy. He is extremely high energy, and I was worried about him being too much to handle. Amber took it in stride and I did not worry once with him in her hands! My dog is my world and I would not leave him with jsut anybody. She has a backyard to run and play in, and is very friendly, knowledgeable, and was always willing to send me funny pictures while my baby was away. I definitely recommend her and Joey will be back!!”

“My pups were so well loved and happy! I highly recommend Tara! She is very intentional about the care she provides, listening to care instructions and ensuring they’re implemented. Lucky dogs ( or cats) who get her care!”

“Lashonna is fantastic. A great meet-and-greet, very accommodating on pick up and drop off, great communication, and most importantly our dog seems very happy with the stay.”

“I can’t say enough good things about this incredible couple who care and love my two Siberian huskies Jaden Raiden like they were their own for the moment I dropped them off. I felt completely at ease. They truly love dogs, and it shows in every detail from the daily video updates, which I look forward to every day to allowing them to freely room and play on their beautiful fenced in farmland and even enjoyed their pond. They gave them treats and continued some recall training that I was working on my Huskies came home happy healthy, tired and the best way and clearly well loved. The group playtime was perfect for their social nature and the space gave them the freedom. They thrive on. I’m so grateful for the piece of mind. They gave me while I was away and I will 100% be returning and highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe, fun and loving environment for their pups.”

“First time using Rover and had a great experience. Ryan and his son took great care of Cerby and he came back home happy and playful as ever. Will definitely schedule with them again!”

“As always Amber and her husband are amazing. They were particular life savers for this vacation as they were able to work around my strange pick-up/drop-off times and were flexible when our flight got delayed.”

“Catherine and Adam did a great job. They sent pictures and updates to let me know how my dog was doing each day. They were very nice people and I was worried about someone new but they made sure I was comfortable with his care. I would recommend them very much but don't want to because I need them free for my doggie. LOL. Thank you very much for them. Also plane was late and they were nice about keeping him when I was in trouble. They get 100% super.”

“Kelsey has been my go to sitter for a few years, and she recently watched our dog for two weeks while we went to Europe and took such great care of our Corgi. She’s the only sitter I trust, thanks so much for always being so great to our dogs!”

“Treven loved having other dogs to play with and Vanessa provided extra reassurance that things were going well throughout his stay. I hope he is able to stay with her and her family again.”

“Chili Pepper was well taken care of during our family vacation! Derek and Megan were flexible, understanding, and great communicators! I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone! I know I will be when we are away again! Thank you so so much!”


“I am very satisfied with how she treated Marley, it was like he was part of their family, and that makes me feel very happy. I will definitely consider her watching him again. And I would recommend anyone to drop their fur babies off and good hands I wasn’t able to keep in contact due to not having service but when I did receive service, I had multiple pictures come through my phone and I felt great thank you again. I really appreciate you treating my buddy like your own”

“Updates every day - either videos or photos of Eros enjoying his time there. First experience with Rover at all, and Daisy was nothing short of delightful. Thank you guys so much ♡”

“Rachel is an incredible person. She adored my dog as if it were her own. She ensured that my dog felt at ease in a new environment. I truly appreciate her efforts and highly recommend her services.”

“Joanne is awesome! She took great care of our pupper and sent us updates throughout the stay. She has an awesome set up for the pups - complete with cute furry friends to play with :) 10/10 would recommend!”

They also all seemed to really love her. Would absolutely book with her again!”

About: Cats have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a passion of mine. My family has five cats, and over the years I’ve gained experience with everything from welcoming strays to adopting from shelters. I know how important it is to make sure these sweet companions get the love and attention they deserve. At home, I share life with my two cats, Boo and Spooky, who keep me entertained and remind me daily how special our furry friends are. Whether your cat loves playtime, snuggles, or simply quiet company, I’m flexible and attentive to their unique personalities. I look forward to meeting your cats and giving them attentive, loving care while you’re away. My goal is to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well looked after, just as they do with you, their owner.
“Jayson did absolutely amazing with my 3 pups this week and they get excited to see him for their drop in visits! I’m glad they didn’t scare him away so he can keep doing drop in visits with them 🐶🐶🐶”


About: I've fostered several different kittens/ cats over the years and helped find them their forever homes. I have two sweet boys of my own and I foster outdoor cats around the neighborhood getting them neutered when I can and finding them places to adopt them out so they are off the street

About: When I was around 7 my mother and I, freshly moved into our new house got our first cat, a Tabby cat, Oscar. He was the moth friendly and loving cat but a bit lonely so soon after we got a kitten Adam. Although more aloof as he got older, he and Oscar were the best of buddies. In high school we got my first kitten Norman. He was my little follower for as long as I could remember. Leaving him with my mother after college was hard but uprooting him from his home was not something I could do. Through the years I have slowly taken in more cats. Currently I have 4, Charles, Maddie, Dexter, and Luna, all which were found on the streets, or crazy enough, at work. I love them dearly and spoil them as much as a can.

“Lisa did a great job! After meeting Lisa, I felt secure leaving our cat KC in good hands. Communication was excellent. She even made sure we made it home okay and all was good. I will be using Lisa's services again soon!”

About: I have years of experience with doggos! My first bestfriend was a dog I once had. I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember and would love to walk or babysit your dog anytime. I do need a week or two notice due to me being enrolled in college courses but I will try to be as flexible as possible! I grew up caring for my 4 dogs at my parents home and two fur nieces who are owned by my brother. My fur nieces would be the white and black husky and brown lab in my pictures. I have been dog sitting her since she was just a pupper. Love her! I am 21 years old and I adopted my first fur daughter a few months ago. She is a collie/dutch Shepard mix and is the biggest sweetheart and LOVES to play with other dog friends! My availability would be Monday and Wednesday nights after 4:30 due to classes and then all weekend all day every day! I live in a cozy but roomy one story apartment with my loving boyfriend and a loving doggo. I love long walks and runs, playing, and cuddles! I am a very patient person and I am very passionate about dogs! Dogs of all ages and breeds are welcomed by me, even pups! <3
“Felicia did a great job checking in on our cat and loving on her while we were out of town. She checked in with us via text every day and sent us pictures. Would recommend her to others, she is a caring and professional sitter!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and would love to care for yours! My Golden wants some new friends! We actually prefer larger dogs, so if you are having a hard time finding a sitter for your big dog...you just found the perfect place! I work from home with my own business, so can set my hours. I am typically free Mon-Fri for Doggy Day Care. Have plenty of time for fun in the yard, pool play and snuggles. I have a very large fenced in yard with lots of space to run and play.

About: I have spent a lifetime caring for my own pets as well as rescuing animals. I think pets are an extremely important part of my livelihood and good mental health so I understand that your pet is an integral part of your family as well. I also understand that I am a guest in your pets home and will treat your home with the utmost respect and privacy. I am a mom, a wife and an Air Force veteran and I understand that schedules change due to work, family needs, and sickness. Being a stay at home mom with school age children allows me to be flexible and reliable. I also received my OH-EMT Intermediate medic training at WPAFB while serving in the military. I am very comfortable administering medications and any treatments. As of 2023 I also obtained my Instructor Animal CPR and First Aide Instructor Certification. I am a full time pet care specialist/trainer. I specialize with dogs that have anxiety disorders that can show themselves as aggressive behaviors which I believe are actually unmet needs. Starting April 4, 2024 we begin construction on a fenced in yard so we can provide day training/daycare while you are at work and boarding!
“Tim and Kasia were amazing with our Oliver! We were nervous to leave him for the first time since adopting him, he’s goes to work with us every day and he rides with us nearly everywhere but our daughters play sports and we have long weekend days away from home. They sent videos of him running around with the other dogs playing and having a blast, which was great to see because he’s a total couch potato at home. When my husband picked him up he acted like he didn’t want to leave which is out of character for Oliver because he’s usually glued to us 24/7! He loved being there and they will be our first choice whenever we need care for Oliver.”

“Catherine and Hubby are a wonderful team. They both love animals and they take such good care of my fur baby, just like she's their own. If you need care I highly recommend THEM!”

“Arlissa is amazing and takes such good care of our two dogs! She has been our only dog sitter while living in Ohio for the past 4 years. Unfortunately, we have to move to another state and find a new sitter. I don't think anyone will be able to top the quality service she provides!”

“Wow! Incredible! I hesitate to leave an awesome review because she was so unlike any other sitter and I want her all for my dog. Hatsuki is on another level. I went to do an introductory meet and greet. Her house was immaculate, very clean and organized. Hatsuki had printed (let me say it again, she printed a sheet!) a profile of clutch so she can make notes about his needs. Again this was just a meet and greet, she also made a thumb drive with a tag that had clutch’s name. This was so she can give me all the pictures she would take including the ones she would send me as updates throughout the day. Thank you Hatsuki you were amazing!”

“They really care for our fur baby. He gets so excited when he knows we are going to their house. He goes straight to bed when we get home because he had a fun filled day of activities!”

“Tara and her family provided a wonderful, safe, and caring daycare environment for my two small dogs. She is professional, kind, and thoughtful. I scheduled her right away to board my two dogs for an upcoming weekend trip.”
“I was coming to a Dayton Ohio for work and I was bringing my mini golden doodle pup along. I needed someone trustworthy to watch my baby boy, Arlo. I came across Katherine’s profile and immediately had that instinct that she was the one 😊 she was accommodating to my over protective mommy needs and agreed to hop on a zoom call with me beforehand. She was warm, nice and kind. It also helped she has 3 adorable little fur baby girls too. For the 4 days I was here for work she would take care of Arlo for me all day. She was extremely responsive and would send me pictures and videos all day without me even having to ask. She has a nice big fenced in backyard that Arlo loved running around freely in all day. Each evening I would pick him up he was exhausted from having fun playing all day. (His besty was her dog, Vanilla) 😊 I cannot recommend Katherine enough. She made my experience great and worry free. Thank you so much for taking great care of Arlo.”

About: For the past 8 years, I have been involved in rescue work and have gained experience fostering dogs and cats of varying ages and personalities. I have also worked at a dog training facility, gaining more experience and knowledge of dogs' body language, needs, and training. From caring for newborn puppies to senior dogs, from fearful to playful, every experience has been fulfilling. I am a proud owner of three rescue fur babies who bring love and joy into my life every day. I will forever be grateful for all the lessons they taught me and continue teaching me every day about love, joy, compassion, appreciation and patience I believe in using positive reinforcement methods and showing patience and creativity when handling animals. I have deep respect for their unique personalities and always strive to ensure their safety and well-being, fostering positive associations and allowing them the freedom to make choices independently Hey there! I recently relocated to Dayton and am looking for opportunities to spend as much time as possible with animals. I am fascinated by animal psychology and behaviour, and by how they learn and communicate. I regularly take my pups to dog classes in the evenings, go on long walks during the day and study online from home I have three beautiful pets to keep your fur baby company, or I can separate them so your paw-friend has peace of mind and personal space. If you prefer to keep your sweet little one in the crate, we will make it a calm, relaxing experience with a yummy food puzzle and classical music in the background. When pet sitting at your place, I can follow your instructions and guidance to make sure the little paws have everything they need. I enjoy spending time teaching dogs good manners and new skills. We practice obedience training with my pups every day, and my cat just started learning new tricks too. If you like, I can create an individual training plan for your pet during their stay, or you can let me know what to work on, and I'll make sure your pup is receiving the training. Any training is welcome, from puppy training to obedience to learning new skills. Change is stressful and scary, so I will make sure your fur baby has enough attention, physical exercise and mental stimulation. I have plenty of interactive toys for busy-minded pups, as well as lots of ideas for healthy, long-lasting snacks, such as food puzzles, KONG toys, lick mats, and sniffle games. And I'm always open to trying new activities if our furry friend has a favourite toy or game
“Kristol was the perfect dog sitter. Very warm and welcoming to us and our fur babies. My dog had never been to a dog sitter before, but everything was perfect. My dog felt very comfortable there and did great. Kristol sent several photos, which made me feel better. I would use Kristol's service anytime I could. Recommend her highly.”

About: Growing up from an early age my family and I have always had dogs and cats. The first dog I was around consistently was my grandmothers, Buddy. I loved her with all my heart as a child and followed her around constantly. When I was young I got my first cat Oscar. He was a calm but talkative orange tabby. My mother then got Adam to give Oscar a friend. My first dog I got from a local shelter, Lulu. Over the years I had a few more. A newfoundland Bernie who would wait patiently at the water bowl for the cats to be done. Norman, a black cat who had an old man meow. A German Shepard mix, Guthrie who was a ball of energy from day one, and 2 dachshund mixes, Joe and Axle who look completely different from each other but follow each other everywhere. After moving out of my mother's house eight years ago I slowly kept taking in cats, currently with four, Charles, Maddie, Dexter, and Luna. I firmly believe having pets to love is one of the best parts in life. I currently work full time on a split second/third shift job but am looking at schooling for a trade. I have three days off a week where I do most around the house and garden. Mornings and early afternoons are always available for me. I have a four foot high fenced in yard, chain link with a latch for any dogs I may be watching as well as tons of cat toys and a new 6 foot cat tree.
About: I love animals and I will go above and beyond to make your furry friend happy. I am reliable and patient. I would love to meet your furry friend! I’m currently working full time as a teacher and looking to start dog walking for exercise after work! I am especially looking for summer time walking and drop ins to make some extra income! I am trustworthy and always on time to the job. I will make sure that I treat your dog or cat the way I would want my cat treated.

About: I have always cared for my friends animals when they are traveling and I also have had my cat Nola for 5 years. I’m also familiar with animals having anxiety and how to care for them by creating a routine that’s safe and fun. I have an open schedule currently so I’m open to flexibility during the day and some afternoons. I’m on break from my Masters program so my time is pretty open.

About: I've had & taken care of cats & dogs since I was 7 years old! Over the past 5 years I've moved into caring for the pets of other's just as a favor to friends & family. Now I want to leave corporate America & care for furry family members professionally. I'm currently working on making pet sitting my full time job so my availability is completely open for around the clock care whether your pet is an early riser or a night owl! I prefer to care for pets in their own space as I have roommates at this time & our landlord doesn't allow pets on property.

About: I have experience with many breeds and ages, and have been the primary carer for our current two dogs since birth. What can I say dogs just like me . Retired from my chosen career path now full-time homemaker. I currently watch our two pups and we would love a new friend to play with! I have a nice, big fenced backyard, and a fenced in front porch. My current dogs go out about every 2-3 hours during the day, but I can adhere to your dogs schedule if different. I often spend lots of time outside with my dogs, playing, and hanging out enjoying the day.
“Amber was amazing with my boy. He is extremely high energy, and I was worried about him being too much to handle. Amber took it in stride and I did not worry once with him in her hands! My dog is my world and I would not leave him with jsut anybody. She has a backyard to run and play in, and is very friendly, knowledgeable, and was always willing to send me funny pictures while my baby was away. I definitely recommend her and Joey will be back!!”

“My pups were so well loved and happy! I highly recommend Tara! She is very intentional about the care she provides, listening to care instructions and ensuring they’re implemented. Lucky dogs ( or cats) who get her care!”

“Lashonna is fantastic. A great meet-and-greet, very accommodating on pick up and drop off, great communication, and most importantly our dog seems very happy with the stay.”

“I can’t say enough good things about this incredible couple who care and love my two Siberian huskies Jaden Raiden like they were their own for the moment I dropped them off. I felt completely at ease. They truly love dogs, and it shows in every detail from the daily video updates, which I look forward to every day to allowing them to freely room and play on their beautiful fenced in farmland and even enjoyed their pond. They gave them treats and continued some recall training that I was working on my Huskies came home happy healthy, tired and the best way and clearly well loved. The group playtime was perfect for their social nature and the space gave them the freedom. They thrive on. I’m so grateful for the piece of mind. They gave me while I was away and I will 100% be returning and highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe, fun and loving environment for their pups.”

“First time using Rover and had a great experience. Ryan and his son took great care of Cerby and he came back home happy and playful as ever. Will definitely schedule with them again!”

“As always Amber and her husband are amazing. They were particular life savers for this vacation as they were able to work around my strange pick-up/drop-off times and were flexible when our flight got delayed.”

“Catherine and Adam did a great job. They sent pictures and updates to let me know how my dog was doing each day. They were very nice people and I was worried about someone new but they made sure I was comfortable with his care. I would recommend them very much but don't want to because I need them free for my doggie. LOL. Thank you very much for them. Also plane was late and they were nice about keeping him when I was in trouble. They get 100% super.”

“Kelsey has been my go to sitter for a few years, and she recently watched our dog for two weeks while we went to Europe and took such great care of our Corgi. She’s the only sitter I trust, thanks so much for always being so great to our dogs!”

“Treven loved having other dogs to play with and Vanessa provided extra reassurance that things were going well throughout his stay. I hope he is able to stay with her and her family again.”

“Chili Pepper was well taken care of during our family vacation! Derek and Megan were flexible, understanding, and great communicators! I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone! I know I will be when we are away again! Thank you so so much!”

“We are so grateful to have found Ezgi! Our dog was spoiled while we were on vacation. We loved the photo updates on how he was doing while we were away. We truly feel like he was in great hands & we loved how comfortable he was with her. Thank you again for taking such great care of our baby boy!”
