Personalized care for your dog or cat - Pekin

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Pekin
“Chris and his family took great care of my dog when my initial plans for boarding fell through at the last minute. I received daily updates and pictures. I can tell they treated my baby very well. I am extremely appreciative, and will be booking again.”

“Jennifer and her family made Cosmo feel at home and I could tell he didn’t even want to leave when it was time to get him, so they definitely loved on him plenty and gave him lots of play time. They also accommodated me on a shorter notice which was so helpful!”

“Karin has been amazing with Sage, me and my husband went on a 7 day trip for our honeymoon and we decided to leave Sage with Karin. We have never tried anything like this before and normally we went to a boarding facility but decided to try something new for Sage. Best decision we ever made. Numerous amounts of updates, photos and videos, a lot of reassurance, she’s flexible and understanding and she’s has been gentle and loving with Sage as well. We were worried Sage would be too much, but he fit right in. We definitely recommend her and we will 100% be coming back to her for future play dates and boarding! Thank you so much Karin!”

“Brendan was absolutely great navigating our Payton. He has high anxiety but was through the roof as he had never stayed with a stranger before. He was patient and understanding. He kept in touch and sent pics.”

“Sheila and Jeff were great with our pup! They asked lots of great questions before our dog's stay to ensure she would be comfortable. They took awesome care of our dog, and sent lots of photos. They have a very nice and secure fenced in yard, and their two dogs are very sweet and playful. We will definitely use them for future stays!”

“John and Kelly took really great care of Koda! They kept us updated on how he was doing and gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation. We look forward to booking with them in the future since Koda enjoyed his stay so much!”
“Rosangela did a wonderful job with our dog. My dog was torn between staying and going home when we arrived to pick her up. She thoroughly enjoyed her stay. Will definitely be using her again!!”

“I could not ask Moore anyone. My boy is 11 and month old mastiff mutt mix.. he’s big, hasn’t learned his manners yet, slobbers profusely, but is the most lovable hunk of dog you could imagine. He fits in so well with Sabrina and her family. We will never stray🐾”

“Julia was great to work with! Juniper came back all tuckered out and I could tell she had a great time staying with Julia & family. She was also able to get us in last minute and very accommodating when we were running late for pickup! I would definitely book with her in the future 🐾🐶”

“Josie had an excellent stay with Aparajita. I had received photo/video updates consistently each day during Josie’s stay. It was basically doggy vacation as there were other doggy friends for Josie to play with, along with plenty of yard space and she even got the splash pad out after finding out that Josie loves water. Aparajita was kind enough to give Josie a bath and wash the towels we sent along with her. Will definitely be booking again and I highly recommend booking with Aparajita!”
“Sarah and Matthew are a DREAM for dog sitters and their beautiful farm is just paradise for any pup. They took such great care of our dog for eight days. They’d send pictures daily and communicated with us each day. Absolutely five star rating!”

“Definitely our dog Casper could not be in better hands, Angel is a very responsible person, always in touch sending messages and photos of how happy and calm Casper was in her care, we will definitely continue to use Angel to take care of our dog, We are very grateful.”


“Lisa was great! She sent daily pictures of my Gizmo and her family treated him like their own! I highly recommend her! She’s awesome! Thanks for caring and loving on my fur baby! We appreciate it!”

“Kristin was very proffesional and accommodating. We were able to easily schedule a meet and greet before booking the service. She sent daily updates, including pictures, and was very communicative throughout the entire process. We look forward to booking with Kristin again!”

“Lynn (Bonita) was absolutely amazing in her care of our kitten and older cat. She was so attentive to them and provided wonderful updates daily. We were a bit apprehensive about leaving for a week, but both Ken and Poppy were happy and healthy when we returned. I really appreciate the time Lynn took to give attention to both cats individually - Ken was so comfortable with her, he allowed belly-rubs! I definitely recommend Lynn to care for your pets! I will request her services again in the future.”


“Kristin did a wonderful job caring for our two cats. She showed up at the same time every day to visit and care for them. We received pictures and updates each day. This was wonderful to have the piece of mind while we were out of the country. I would highly recommend her and use her services again.”


About: I’ve been surrounded by cats my entire life and have never known life without a cat in my home. I currently care for 4 cats and am accustomed to all of their varying needs. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for until you return.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Pekin
“Sabrina and her family were awesome, they were so good to Oliver and I know he had a blast because he came home and immediately passed out for the rest of the night! I definitely recommend Sabrina for all your pup watching needs!”

“Biscuit had a great first ever day of dog daycare with Tim and Kasia! We got a couple of short videos of playtime and reassurance that she was doing well. Tim and Kasia also were very generous with their time when we visited beforehand and answered all of our questions. They have been very trustworthy and we will be back!”

I can assure you that your pet will be in good hands with not only one, but two people in the house who work from home!

About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and experience providing care for others. I understand the importance of building trust, following routines, and paying close attention to individual needs. My background caring for adults with developmental disabilities has strengthened my ability to be responsible, observant, and compassionate—qualities that are just as important when caring for pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their personality, preferences, and comfort level. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm environment, I adapt my care to meet their needs. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering medications when needed, and providing extra attention to puppies, senior pets, or pets that may be anxious while their owners are away. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, loved, and well cared for throughout their stay. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I have experience providing dependable care for others and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to individual needs. I enjoy spending time with animals and am comfortable incorporating feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication administration, and companionship into my day. I believe pets thrive when they have structure, exercise, and plenty of affection, and I take pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in my client's home, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow the owner's instructions for feeding, exercise, medications, and any special care needs. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while ensuring pets have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for. If providing care in my home, I create a safe, pet-friendly environment with regular feeding schedules, exercise, supervised play, fresh water, and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and needs to help them feel comfortable and reduce any stress from being away from home.
About: I have experience taking care of friends' dogs and my own dog, giving her oral medications and in food, walking them among others. I enjoy the experience a lot, to be able to meet new pets and their owners. I work from home, so I am available during the day to give your doggie attention, take your dog for a walk, feed and of course give your doggie a lot of love. I know very well what it's like to be away from your beloved doggie and how much you miss them when they're not by your side. That's why I assure you of frequent, daily updates on your doggie so you can have peace of mind knowing how they are and what they're doing each day. Being home all day allows me to guarantee that your doggie will always be accompanied and well cared for. They will be able to go outside to pee frequently, will have their meals on time, and will get their daily walk if they enjoy physical activity. I always keep a close eye on the dogs I'm caring for and always take them outside on a leash. If your dog takes any oral medication or vitamins, please feel free to bring them so I can administer them. Just send me the instructions in writing before the day you drop them off. If your dog has any favorite toys, treats, or long-lasting chews that they're used to having, it would be great if you brought them so they feel even happier. My priority is that your doggie feels comfortable and happy, and they will receive plenty of belly rubs and love.
“Our dog, Monty, really enjoyed his stay and obviously bonded with the care providers and other members of the pack. The daily pictures and updates were very much appreciated. We are fortunate to have found you. Thank you!”

“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!”

About: Hi, I’m Courtney! Your dog’s new dependable best friend. With 15 years of experience working with animals, I bring a calm, confident, and caring approach to every visit. I’m comfortable with all breeds, all sizes, and all personalities — from shy seniors to energetic puppies. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have dogs and guinea pigs at home, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and understood while keeping you updated every step of the way. Pet care is naturally built into my weekly routine. I plan my schedule around my drop-ins and walks to make sure every pet gets consistent, on-time care. I check in throughout the day, send updates, and make sure each visit has my full attention. On my days off, I’m even more flexible and can offer extra visit times. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine, make sure their needs are met, keep their space clean, and give them plenty of attention. I provide calm, consistent care and always send updates each visit.
“Erin did great at taking care of my puppy! I had an odd situation where I was traveling from out of state, and she was more than helpful in accommodating my needs for an anxious pup.”

“So grateful to be able to have them watch Hazel for us today!! They are so wet and will send you pics or videos of your pet if you want them! Will definitely be using them again when visiting home.”

“Aparajita was absolutely wonderful! This was a last-minute booking, and she was incredibly responsive, kind, and accommodating. She was so sweet with Dexter and clearly made him feel loved and comfortable right away. She kept us updated with so many fun photos and videos of Dexter playing and having a great time with her two bigger dogs, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear he was having an amazing time and was being cared for like one of her own. We are so grateful for her excellent communication, flexibility, and loving care. We highly recommend Aparajita to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”

About: I have two dogs of my own that I love taking on walks and looking after! I have been around dogs my whole life, and I am occasionally around cats. I feed my dogs everyday, walk them once a week, and bathe them from time to time. I am working part-time, but I find time to go on a walk every day as a part of my routine, so I would love to also be walking a dog! Since I will be working part-time, I will have time to let your dog outside and make sure they are doing well! I am very respectful in other people’s houses, and I would let the dog outside. I would also spend time with the pet playing with the pet, and also making sure they get a lot of petting!
About: I have been taking care of animals since i was a child. From neighborhood walks to training and of course love and care is always at the top of my list.

I have a fenced in yard and have 2 other dogs to keep your baby company. i also have crates and space to separate them if needed.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Pekin
About: My husband Jeff and I have 2 dogs and no kids. Our dogs are our kids! Our dogs are about 2 years old and get along well with other dogs. Both of us grew up with dogs and have had dogs that are both young and senior. We give our dogs lots of time and attention. We are responsible pet owners and believe in keeping them healthy, loved, safe, and part of our pack! I am retired and my husband works part-time so one of us is almost always home to care for your pet(s). If we are gone for a few hours, our dogs are caged in the house. Usually, it is if we go out for dinner or the store, so it's for short periods. If your dog does not do caging, that's ok as long as they are good! We have a large fenced yard. Our 6 foot privacy fence also has wire mesh at the bottom of the fence to make sure dogs are safe and can't get out (or other animals get in). Our dogs are about 3 years old and get along well with other dogs. They love to play and are free to move in the house and the yard, and they get regular walks. Dogs are allowed on furniture. We would love to be your pet sitter while you are away, and you can be confident your doggie will be happy, safe and loved!
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, rodents, lizards, and more, including the farm type! I have been doing this since I started to walk dogs around 13 years old. I have given medications, taken to appointments, and helped with simple early training. I've worked with week old puppies and kittens, to seniors who need extra attention. I'm ready to meet your expectations! I'm currently in school and only there 2 days a week! Besides those times, I have plenty of time to be a companion to your fur baby. Morning to night I can be there! In your home we'll follow what your pet is used to. Whether it's out in a fence, on a leash, in certain areas of the home or anything else. If they go to a park or get certain times of "freedom" I can do that too (if your fur baby is kept in an enclosure).
About: I’ve been a pet owner my entire life and currently care for four cats and one dog, so I understand the love, patience, and responsibility that come with caring for animals. Growing up with pets has taught me how to recognize their individual personalities and needs, whether they love to play, cuddle, or simply enjoy a calm companion. I’m dependable, attentive, and will make sure your pets receive the same love and care I give my own. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or keeping up with their routine, I’ll treat your furry family like they’re part of mine. I’m currently a student and work part-time. I will be available early mornings, late afternoons, evenings, and weekends to care for your pets! I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect as my own. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, provide fresh food and water, ensure they get plenty of attention and exercise, keep owners updated with photos and messages, and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness.
About: I have been taking care of pets for 10 years now. My passion for animals boosted in 2013 when I started helping a nonprofit animal rescue. Since then I have fostered animals, became a pet sitter for past fosters and worked in animal care. I’m currently a full-time student at the University of Cincinnati, but have flexibility throughout the day to provide the best care for your babies. I am available most weekends as well. I will treat your pet with the respect and love they deserve. I provide care at the pace your furry friend is comfortable with, to ensure they have the best care possible. I have experience in working with all sorts of different personalities from anxious and nervous to happy-go-lucky. I stride to treat each pet like they are my own and provide them with the care to put your worries to ease.
About: I’m a lifetime dog owner with hands-on experience caring for family and friends' pets. I know exactly how to handle both the chaotic energy of puppies and the gentle, slow-paced needs of senior dogs. I accommodate both planned schedules and last-minute requests, making it easy for busy owners when schedules change on a dime. I live right next to dog parks and trails, meaning your dog gets high-quality exercise and adventure rather than just a quick walk around the block. I send regular photo updates so you always know your fur baby is happy, safe, and having fun in real-time. My schedule is wide open, meaning I can easily accommodate regular routines, mid-day breaks, or last-minute, short-notice requests. Im happy to set a routine as well sinc ei know this helps with over all comfort for everyone. I can come for short walks or hour long walks, whatever you need! I can care for your pets at my place—where I live right next to dog parks and trails—or in the comfort of your own home. When caring for pets in your home, I am deeply respectful of your space and always tidy up after myself and your pet so you can come home to a clean house.
About: I have cared for pets of my own since I was 5 and have been pet sitting cats and dogs of all ages and sizes since I was 13 for family friends. I am a college student and I pet sit over the summer, and holiday breaks throughout the year. I am available for daily drop-in’s throughout the week and on weekends. Morning/Night Check-ins would be easiest for me but I would be happy to visit more frequently if need be! Also, I can sit and play with your pet for a few hours if you’d prefer that! I have 2 pets of my own so I would prefer to care for your pets in your home! I would come to your house as frequent as you’d like throughout the day.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life and currently live with two! Varying in size, the youngest being bigger than me! I’ve cleaned after, walked and have no issue playing and keeping your sweet babies happy! I do work a full time job but I do have availability for walks and drop in visits! Tuesdays and Thursdays are my usual days of but I am mostly off of work at 3 my other days and don’t mind evening visits! If I make a commitment with you for your pet I will not pick anything up at my full time job! I prefer to care for pets in clients home but am completely respectful of privacy and boundaries in others homes. I can feed and play with them in home and keep an eye on them for duration of visit!

“Jennifer did a fantastic job taking care of my mom’s fur babies! Smoke and Bandit are 14 years old move slow (Smoke also has arthritis and she kept an eye on him) and Jennifer was very patient in walking them. She was able to help me out on short notice the first week when my mom needed assistance with her dogs so I could take care of work and my work travels. She helped my mom for about 3 weeks in total. She was extremely flexible and always provided pictures and videos of the kiddos so I could follow along while I was not available. She kept me up to date every day with multiple reports on how they were doing. She was extremely easy to communicate with and always very quick with her responses (which I am grateful for). She went out of her way to make sure they got their medication and even picked up a prescription for Smoke while I was out of state. I can’t recommend Jennifer enough and will definitely use her again in the future!!”

About: Most dogs on Rover are booked for walks. What I offer is different. I provide structured running for dogs who seem to outpace a normal routine and do best with consistent physical output. Runs take place on repeat neighborhood routes at a steady, controlled pace with pickup and return from your home. The focus isn’t speed or exhausting your dog. It’s creating a predictable rhythm that stays consistent from week to week. Many owners notice their dogs settle more easily at home and carry themselves more calmly after consistent runs. This service is best for dogs that: • Enjoy running and sustained activity • Are comfortable in public environments • Can safely maintain a brisk pace • Do better with routine and consistency A typical session is simple: 1. Pickup from your home 2. Structured run on an established route 3. Return home with a short update and video Not every dog is the right fit and that’s okay. If you’re unsure, feel free to reach out and tell me about your dog. I work on a scheduled weekly rhythm rather than last-minute bookings. Sessions are planned in advance and work best when dogs stay on consistent days and times from week to week. *Most dogs settle into a twice-per-week schedule once their rhythm is established. Safety comes first. I work one-on-one with dogs, use the established neighborhood routes and maintain a steady, controlled pace throughout each session. Sessions are kept structured and never pushed beyond what is appropriate for the individual dog.
About: Hi there! I am an occupational therapist looking to offer pet care services on the side. I am willing to care for dogs, cats, horses, livestock, and more. I have an extensive history of working with animals as I began horseback riding when I was 8 years old and grew up helping my grandmother care for her horses and dogs. My household was filled with dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, and I also owned a horse as a child. I also have experience caring for 2 chihuahuas for months at a time. I have helped a woman groom, exercise, and feed her horses and cats when she is out of town since 2007. I also have worked at a petting farm with horses, goats, pigs, a camel ( yes, a camel!), ponies, rabbits, and various birds for birthday parties and events for children since 2012. My fiance and I recently added a new shiba inu and brittany spaniel boxer mix puppy to our family. They are quite a handful but we are loving every minute with them. I enjoy working with all animals and treat them as if they are my own. Don't hesitate to message me if interested! I currently work full time as an occupational therapist but I provide pet care services on the side when I am able. My fiance works from home and has a flexible schedule and helps to assist. At my home, your fur baby will be able to play with and socially with my two pups in a fenced in back yard. Pets are closely supervised to ensure their safety. They are always fed separately from one another to avoid food agression. Environment is modified as needed to ensure pet safety (i.e. stairs blocked off).
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.

Animals I are for: -Dogs and puppies -Cats and kittens - Rabbits, hamsters and guinea pigs - small aquatic animals Starting June 29th, I will be available during the week, weekends, and evenings if required.

“Jennifer and her family made Cosmo feel at home and I could tell he didn’t even want to leave when it was time to get him, so they definitely loved on him plenty and gave him lots of play time. They also accommodated me on a shorter notice which was so helpful!”

“I could not ask Moore anyone. My boy is 11 and month old mastiff mutt mix.. he’s big, hasn’t learned his manners yet, slobbers profusely, but is the most lovable hunk of dog you could imagine. He fits in so well with Sabrina and her family. We will never stray🐾”

“Julia was great to work with! Juniper came back all tuckered out and I could tell she had a great time staying with Julia & family. She was also able to get us in last minute and very accommodating when we were running late for pickup! I would definitely book with her in the future 🐾🐶”

“Josie had an excellent stay with Aparajita. I had received photo/video updates consistently each day during Josie’s stay. It was basically doggy vacation as there were other doggy friends for Josie to play with, along with plenty of yard space and she even got the splash pad out after finding out that Josie loves water. Aparajita was kind enough to give Josie a bath and wash the towels we sent along with her. Will definitely be booking again and I highly recommend booking with Aparajita!”
“Sarah and Matthew are a DREAM for dog sitters and their beautiful farm is just paradise for any pup. They took such great care of our dog for eight days. They’d send pictures daily and communicated with us each day. Absolutely five star rating!”

“Definitely our dog Casper could not be in better hands, Angel is a very responsible person, always in touch sending messages and photos of how happy and calm Casper was in her care, we will definitely continue to use Angel to take care of our dog, We are very grateful.”

“Kristin was very proffesional and accommodating. We were able to easily schedule a meet and greet before booking the service. She sent daily updates, including pictures, and was very communicative throughout the entire process. We look forward to booking with Kristin again!”
