“We had a last minute need for a dog sitter and Kelsey was incredibly accommodating and willing to help watch out pup. She was considerate, sent updates and pictures, and was sure to check in on any needs our dog may need. Highly highly recommended!”

“Great communication and peaceful experience. George was obviously cared for with premium attention. Kris is very sweet and easy to talk to! We've booked our pup to go back again and again bc he made great friends with Baloo!”

“Kaitlin took such good care of our dog Hazel! We had to find a place for her to stay last minute and Kaitlin was quick to respond and made it so easy to line up drop off and pick up. We got daily updates and I know Hazel had the best time with the other dogs. She came home happy and exhausted. We are so appreciative and will definitely be sending her back next time we need to go out of town!”


“Lizmarie was great! Carly stayed with her for about a week when we were on vacation. She sent us updates and photos during her stay and made sure Carly smelled good when we picked her up. Will definitely book her again the next time we are going out of town.”

“Rachel and Newt are by far the best people we could have ever stumbled across. Our dog Tank had the best time with them. The photos we received of how comfortable he was took us by surprise and made us smile. We are absolutely going to keep booking with them as long as Tank is with us. Thank you both!”

“Emily took wonderful care of Aria - I've never seen her more comfortable and relaxed at someone else's house! Received plenty of pictures and updates, was so happy to see that she felt right at home. Would highly recommend and will definitely be using Emily again.”

“We had a great experience with Megan and Jay! They provided frequent updates with pictures. Luna came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely book again.”

“John and Shannon sent us several pics, video's and texts of Ruby enjoying walks, their dog Maggie and the backyard. We appreciated their honesty. It did not go problem free but they handled the situations properly. We are glad we tried Rover.”

“Maria was amazing with our Chester boy! He’s an older but high energy dog, and we felt comfortable with her care the entire time we were gone. We’ve already passed her info on to a friend and plan to work with her again in the future! Thank you for everything Maria!”

“Pam is absolutely amazing! She really makes sure to get to know you and your pup prior to your pup’s sleepover! We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with her and will definitely be using her again!”


“Erica was a great sitter for our little one. Easy to talk to and plan things with. Sent pictures and videos of our dog to us everyday. Our dog is a cuddler at night and she went out of her way to make sure our dog was cuddled right next to her or her husband while they slept. Would recommend!”
“Jasmine was wonderful with our corgi! She kept us updated, sent photos, and asked questions regarding her care. She even accepted a last minute booking. We would definitely rebook again with Jasmine!”

“I had an emergency while traveling and my return trip was delayed. When you're handling severe weather and major delays, the last thing you want to worry about is whether your pet can be cared for. Lauren was very communicative and I knew my boy was safe and sound while I was scrambling to get home. A+++”

“Kirsten and Nicolas were great! They sent pics during the whole stay and were very communicative. They also have a fenced in back yard that they let the dogs run around in. They updated us when the pups appetites were low, which I really appreciated. Both of our dogs tend to be anxious without us because they aren’t used to used to being alone, so it was also a big plus that they work from home. In the past we have had to send our pups to kennels because we don’t have friends or family near by who can watch them. They would be locked in a kennel all day and we would literally have to pay extra for belly rubs or time out of the kennel. I usually feel uneasy the whole trip but not this time. I could tell they were well taken care of and treated like one of their own. Thank you so much Kirsten and Nicolas!”

“Lauren and her family took Doug in as if he was their own. I recieved updates and plenty of pictures of Doug playing with their puppy Cinder, who is an absolute sweetheart. There is absolutely no doubt that I will be booking with Lauren and her family again.”

“I felt comfortable with Cameo right away and knew my pup was in good hands. I received updates and good reports on how things were going for the week. I would definitely use Cameo again in the future!”


About: Hello!! **Update** I am currently accepting walks for only 6-7am and 8-10pm timeframes. I have several repeat clients that take up the other hours but will update this if things change. Drop ins are same timeframes except for Sundays and Tuesdays I can take on anytime all day. If you are going on vacation please reach out anyways about Drop Ins as if my schedule allows I CAN accommodate for the most part with a month in advance*** :) My name is Christine and thank you so much for taking the time to read my profile :) I used Rover for 4-5 years but I moved and then was working 2 jobs at the time so I took a break and am back now! I currently live in a condo and do not have a yard right now but I’m feet away from a really great park here in Powell. I grew up taking care of many types of animals but more specifically dogs. I have 3 dogs of my own, all different breeds and personalities, which really challenged me to be able to learn and grow with taking care of dogs. I am working on opening my own location for a Doggie Day care business but until then I would like to gain even more experience and slowly earn loyal doggie clients. Mainly available for walks 7 days a week. Mostly open for drop ins 5-7 days a week ! I have a flexible schedule for last min bookings My 3 pets are EXTREMELY LOVED and spoiled! They have their own closets, foods, toys and even a room dedicated to my cats and dogs in case they just need that alone time away from the humans ! They receive the upmost care for grooming and vet clinic as well! My wallet is never happy when it comes to my pets because I just find so many ways to love them and spoil them!
“4th… maybe 5th visit (but who’s counting😅) and ember has absolutely loved visiting every time! Always has fun running around and spending time with her dogs, but also laying around and enjoying family time! Always love the updates Loni provides to make sure my pup is doing amazing - already have the next visit planned and I know ember is excited already!”

“Dakota was once again treated like one of Brittany and Nicks own. It’s always a comfort to know that their daughter gets so much joy when Dakotas with them. Dakota looks so happy with them in all the pictures and videos we receive which makes our time away more enjoyable. No one else will watch our Dakota.”

“Great communication! Gentle and kind, soft spoken. My cats are very shy but they didn't run and hide. So very happy with Elaina's service. Highly recommend and will definitely use her in the future.”


“She went above and beyond with taking care of our 4 Maine Coons while we were out of town. She even saved us when my husband forgot to pause his weekly meal plan order and she was able to bring it inside and put it away in the freezer for us. We received tons of photos and our furry boys were happy and content when we got home. It was a smooth stress free vacation for us knowing the boys were in such good hands.”


About: These are my two kitties, Lux and Diesel! They are my pride and joy, they make up most of my camera roll and take most of my money too haha. I couldn’t live without them! Diesel has a kidney disease and requires prescription food and occasional oral medicine, so I’m pretty comfortable with any specific needs yours may have!
“Kyra was great and professional, she took wonderful care of our cat. It was our first time using Rover and first time with Kyra, and we're glad we found her. We'll definitely have her back. Thanks Kyra!”


“Nicole did an amazing job caring for my cats!! She was attentive and made sure they got love while I was away. She made sure that she found my scaredy boy who loves to hide to check he was okay!”


“Sidlali was great at our first meeting, and very patient with the possibly-overly-detailed introduction I gave her to our cats and their litter situation. I look forward to her taking care of our cats next month!”

“Rebecca is WONDERFUL! She took care of our two cats while we were traveling recently and she really put our minds at ease. She stopped by to meet the cats before our trip so I could go through all the things with her. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future. Thank you, Rebecca!”

“Arianna impressed me from the start with her great communication before booking. She stayed overnight with my mom's two 14-year-old cats. I came home to two happy cats and a clean house. Thank you so much, Arianna!”

“This was our first time using River and Brittany made it a wonderful experience. Surprisingly, she was able to get pictures of our kitties which was a surprise, plus one of the more skittish ones almost let her pet her. I would definitely request her again.”

About: I grew up with cats and became a dog owner 20 years ago. I have trained 2 puppies. I have a lot of time on my hands to care for your pets. I am a teacher and I am gone weekdays 6:15-3:30. I do have a daughter that comes home daily from 10:45-11:30 to let the dogs out. I have one Boston Terrier and he loves to play. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of room to run around. My dog can be crated if needed.

“First time using Kylie to watch our dog and went very well. We will definitely look to rebook for our next trip. Did well with our dog, kept the house tidy, and was very informative. Highly recommend.”

“We appreciate the communication and flexibility provided esp with a late scramble with another sitter this past couple of weeks. And, most importantly, we were confident our big fur-baby was happy and taken care of with walks and more!”

About: I truly love all animals and will treat your pet as my own while they are in my care! I have experience house sitting, walking, feeding, playing, and experience with senior pets. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your pet and give them the love and care they need while you are away! I work fully from home so I have a very flexible schedule during the week and weekends. I work Monday through Friday and can fit pet care in the mornings, midday, and evenings those days. I do not work weekends so I am even more available Saturdays and Sundays. I will care for your pet in your home exactly as you would. I carefully follow all instructions provided and will be communicative throughout my time with your pet. I can assist with anything you may need in your home as well, such as plants or getting mail. I know the stress of being away from your pet, so I am here to make it as easy on you as possible!
“Maria was AMAZING with my dog! She was a literal lifesaver at the last minute and my puppy was tired at the end of his stay! Thank you SO much Maria! I highly recommend her!”

“Easy and flexible to work with, and my pup had a great stay! Fenced area is not big enough for my greyhound to run but received multiple walks throughout the day instead. Loved all the pics and updates!”

Roughly an acre is securely chain link fenced and gated for plenty of outdoor exercise, weather permitting.
“Yoniray and family have been great with my dog, a little Havanese. She took pictures and sent them through rover. I can tell he was given a lot of love during the stay!”

“Alyssa was very responsive, sent lots of pictures/updates and Tucker is nice and tired after a full day of playing! Thank you for taking great care of our little guy!”

“He’s FABULOUS! My dog has not been boarded for years and coming to Tom’s home was easy for him. Tom took the time to meet us before he came to stay long term, so when Max saw Tom he was all happy tag wags! This is a miraculous event. I expected Max to be shy and back away, but he trotted into the house like he was an old friend. I am so grateful for Tom!”

“Very last minute had availability for us and overall great experience! Great and fast communication and updates with pictures. Will definitely book again ❤️”

“Will and Bibiana are the best. They have treated my puppy Nella like their own. They have helped Nella and I beyond what I could have hoped. Would recommend to anyone for the best care! Thank you guys so much for all the help!!”

About: I have had a dog growing up ever since I was a little girl. I have always puppy sat for past neighbors and family members and treat them as my own! I love dogs, always have and now have my own Bernese mountain dog and chocolate lab! Very available and flexible with time to help care for your fur babies! I can provide as many potty breaks as needed- also have a dog park within our apartment neighborhood! As always I will treat any home I enter with the greatest respect and caution and will welcome mine to any dog I dog sit!
“Our dogs seem to have enjoyed their stay. Great updates throughout the day with some wonderful photos (Vainy has a good eye for photography). We appreciated the flexibility in changing the pickup and dropoff times as our plans for the day kept on changing.”

“Nicole is an excellent caring host. She has a wonderful large grassy backyard with a big tree providing shade and has a pack of nice regulars that are all easygoing . Overall it was an excellent experience for Cookie.”

“Jacqueline is amazing with my dog and 2 cats! So sweet to them, and patient with my dog’s little quirks. She does a great job keeping me updated and takes the cutest pictures of them. I’m very thankful.”

“Maria is absolutely incredible! She’s super communicative for every walk she does for our dog jojo, and always goes above and beyond. We couldn’t be more happy with our experience over the last two months.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for about 5 years now and have had pets all of my life. I can even give them their meds if needed. I am able to make my own schedule with work and most of my hours are overnights, so my availability is pretty open to help take care of your fur babies I can work with dogs in the yard with a fence or no fence and I can feed and bathe them when needed. Also can give medications as well

They are my fur babies, and yours will be treated the same! I am a recently retired mom and grandma who has two fur babies. I can provide my own transportation, and I’m available all throughout the day for various times as needed. I would be happy to help you with your fur baby needs. I plan to provide pet care in my client’s home and keep to the same schedule they are used to. It is my goal to make sure they are comfortable and safe before I leave from the visit.
“Kaitlin is fantastic! She’s been looking after Loki our GSD since he was 4 months and now checks in once a day when I’m at the office to give him lovin’s and take him on a walk. She is also incredibly knowledgeable and is a great resource for new pet parents!”

About: I grew up within a household with a variety of animals. At one point we had five dogs, a cat, a bunny, a guinea pig, three hamsters, 5 birds, a bearded dragon, and a gecko. I learned at a very early age how to tend to animals (clean, feed, play, walk, potty breaks, etc) I enjoy helping others and especially caring for animals. They simply bring me joy. I have open availability (other than dates marked off calendar) and am flexible to try and accommodate your schedule as best as possible in order to make things easy for you and your pet. My male husband and I own a house with a fenced in backward and a neighborhood to walk in. Since I have open availability, I have time to tend to the animals without any distractions from other tasks.
About: I have very flexible hours, I am committed to giving your pup or kitty the best treatment possible, I follow all instructions and take their care seriously❤️ I currently am a full time college student!! Trying to make some money on the side. Pets are my life I couldn’t imagine not owning any! I have my own pupper and kitty kat!! I am very big on safety!! All doggos must be looked after properly, be given water and plenty of love!! Hope you agree with me!
About: I've had a dog in my home since I was born, having 7 different dogs in my home over my lifetime. For the first time in 32 years, I have no dog in my home, because I'm living with my sister and can't get one of my very own, but I have lots of doggie love to share with your pups! Im currently unemployed and lost my most recent dog last year, I'm not quite ready to take the plunge and get a dog yet, but I miss having a pup around and have a lot of doggie loving to give. I promise to treat your dogs with the utmost care, and like they were a member of my own family. I'll keep them safe and happy until you can be reunited.
About: I have had Dogs ever since I was born! When I was 13, I started watching dogs around the neighborhood doing drop and visits for families while they were out of town. Starting in January 2025 I watched Dogs overnight for this one family and watch them throughout the day for weeks when they went out of town throughout the year. I work a part-time job at a golf course and have very flexible hours. I’m willing to be very flexible and work to help out with your pups. We are also coming into the slow season so I have even more time. Obviously, every animal has its own different needs, so I am able to adapt to what your specific animal needs and will make sure your animals are happy and healthy.
“Nicole is great and takes such wonderful care of my dogs!!!! My dogs are soo much happier and comfier when I get home from a long day at work after she walks them:)))”

“Ariel did an amazing job with my boys! My blue heeler can be finicky around new people and take time to warm up. She took time to hang out with him until he was comfortable. They are always in a good mood when they come back from their walks so I know they had a great time! Thank you, Ariel!”

“After 2 walks with Mallory, I'm pleased. Jimmy knew what she was here for the second walk. He's tired after, which is what I wanted. I added a pic of him sleeping tonight (1 1/2hrs) after his walk. His eyes are rolled back in his head, and snoring. Mallory is very kind and obviously loves animals. I'm so grateful to have found a great match. Excited to see Jimmy be more active.”


About: We love dogs in our family. We had our own Poogle (Half Poodle and half beagle) who recently passed away. I am self employed and do a lot of work from home so I'm very flexible. My parents stay with us in the summers in a separate suite and have 3 small dogs. If they all get along, they can join the pack. If there's tension, it's easy to separate them. We have a huge yard and live surrounded by 6 acres of fields to run and play in. We also live walking distance from Liberty Park in Powell which provides miles of walking trails for your pup to enjoy! My wife and I are both self employed and have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pets loads of attention. They will be able to stay on their current feeding and exercise schedule without issue. We have a large yard and many nearby parks. Your pets can free roam inside the house at night or sleep in a crate as you prefer.
“Camille walked our puppy for a last minute booking. She came on time to let her out, walked her in the cold/rainy weather, and put more food in her bowl. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
