“Debbie was very good with Rocket! We met ahead of time so he could meet her and her dog Oscar and I could tell he’d be in good hands. She sent lots of pictures of him and kept us updated on what they were up to (playing, going to the park, on walks…). SO much better than a kennel/pet lodge where he’d have spent 90% of the time alone in a room.”
“Athena was very responsive and understanding of Bella’s needs. She also kept in contact with me and even sent me pictures. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her in the future.”
“It was Dasol's first time with Alicia, so we were worried whether she would be okay at an unfamiliar environment. But Alicia made every effort to make Dasol feel more at home, contacting us on a frequent basis. It was comforting to know that Dasol was in good hands. Thank you, Alicia!”
“I felt Savanna took good care of Felipe. He loves everyone and he is a good dog and that showed when he was with Savanna and her family. Yes I would have him stay with her again. He was taken in his morning walks and they shared videos. Nice home and family. Thank you guys”
“Mindy was great with our Sadie! Sadie is a recue/rehome from a breeder and has never been boarded before. Mindy bonded with Mindy and did very well with her. We could not have been happier! The Sbaraglias”
“Sherri is so great with our two dogs! They love being with her and I know they're being well taken care of. She is very flexible on drop off and pick up which I appreciate because plans can change. I will definitely use Sherri again!!”
“Theresa and her husband took such great care of our Niah on a last minute request. Niah hasn't stayed with too many strangers but Theresa and her husband did such a great job making her feel comfortable and making sure she adjusted and keeping me updated! I would highly recommend them for your fur babies!!!”
“Kristen was great to work with! We had never used Rover or left our little guy before and she answered all of our questions and made us comfortable. We loved the pictures she kept us updated with! Our dog enjoyed his vacation with her and her family!”
About: 🐾 Welcome to your pet’s home away from home! 🏡❤️ I absolutely love animals and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and care.

“Shelley was great and so nice. In addition to taking great care of my 2 cats she took care of my chickens too. She offered to water my house plants while I was gone. Will definitely use her again”
About: I have had kitties most of my life. I love kitties! Right now I have 2 cats of my own and I foster others. It took 3.5 years of trying before I could even pet one of my foster kitties. Last summer I took in a feral mom cat and 3 of her kittens. I worked and worked with the kittens to be able to touch them. One loves to be petted and the other 2 kittens will only let me pet them while they are eating a churu treat, lol. I bought a generation 7 wheel for the kittens. The one male kitten gets the wheel going so fast! He loves it! They're all so fun and spunky :)

“Sara has been amazing with Pasheesh and Pretty Girl. She was informed Pasheesh gets anxiety from being left alone for too long even though he has his sister so she sang to them when she visited. How adorable is that! My cats really like her and they’re both very shy towards people. Thanks Sara!”
About: Hi, I’m Sami! I’ve had dogs and cats throughout my entire life, and caring for animals is second nature to me. I currently have three dogs of my own, all different sizes and ages, so I’m very comfortable managing multi‑dog households, different temperaments, and unique routines. I also work daily with two dogs through my job and care for them whenever my boss travels, so I’m used to maintaining consistent schedule & feeding routines. I practice balanced training with my own dogs, focusing on clear communication, confidence‑building, and creating a safe, predictable atmosphere. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality. Your pets will be treated like my own with love, respect, and lots of attention. I work only 3 days a week and can be available most mornings & evenings for feeding or walking/play time. I will try to make my schedule work around your pets needs. In your home I will make sure your pet is happy & safe. Also safe on walks as I like my own dogs to have structure and clear communication
“Amanda was amazing with my two cats while i was away for an extended time for work. She made me feel so secure and less anxious about leaving them home alone. She was very attentive to my cats’ needs and behaviors and was an excellent communicator (to humans and cats!)”

Please contact me if you are needing help with your pet(s) during work days or while on vacation. I also have experience in the health care field (for humans) which is helpful in taking care of pets with special needs. I am available most of the time. I’m semi retired and have occasional commitments but will always put your pet as a priority if they are under my care. Am happy to care for your pet! I prefer to have pets crate trained to stay in my home overnight; owner would need to provide the crate. This is just for their safety! I will come to your home to walk, play and feed your pets as desired!
About: I love all animals, but I truly believe a home just isnt a home without a dog...or several. :) I only have one of my own now. My Precious is an Australian Shepherd mix. She rescued me 8 years ago.☺️ Now, she is my copilot as we embark on a nomadic adventure across the US. We both look forward to meeting other dogs and their families along our journey.🐾 I am not a dog trainer, however, I have been working with Precious using Cesar Milan's methods of dog psychology. Any specific questions, concerns, special routines, anything your dog needs to feel comfortable, I am happy to do all I can to accommodate. Feel free to contact me with any questions you might have. We look forward to meeting you! I'm setting out on a nomadic adventure across the US with my furry copilot, Precious. We hope to meet other dog lovers along our journey.☺️ I will care for your pets as I would my own. Making sure to fulfill their basic needs of Exercise, Discipline, and Affection, and going over and above to make sure your pets enjoy their own little staycation while you enjoy yours.
“Cassie did an absolutely outstanding job with our two bunny boys. We were away for an overseas trip, but her attention to detail and care kept us worry-free! She sent us daily videos and photos where we could tell that our boys were being pampered and loved on. We can’t thank her enough and will definitely be using her again!”
About: Hi! Thanks so much for stopping by my profile! i’m a stay at home mom of a 1 year old! we love to go on walks and be outside and would love to use that time to help some families with their animals! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, our home was always full of at least a few dogs or cats and i was always helping out neighbors and friends with pet and house sitting and have loved every minute of it! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you truly trust. I’ve used Rover to find care for my own dogs, so I understand both the excitement and the nerves that come with leaving your pets in someone else’s hands. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. Before booking with new clients, I like to schedule a phone call. It gives us a chance to get to know each other, lets me learn about your pets routine, and make sure we’re a great fit. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I also offer house sitting, but I’m unable to stay overnight in clients’ homes at this time. If your pet is comfortable being alone overnight, I’d be happy to provide care during the day with visits tailored to their needs. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and become someone you can count on whenever you need dependable, compassionate care. ❤️

About: I have shown dogs in the confirmation room. For over 20 years. I have shown dogs to the point that they'd have become champions. I've had one dog invited to Westminster. I'm familiar with grooming dogs for show. But I am now retired from all those things. But I still retain my skills. Not to toot my own horn, but I have had 1 dog invited to West Minister. I am a retired school teacher. So I am usually very flexible. With my animals. Currently my. Project is working with. A new toy poodle I got. Training him. In obedience. I have one puppy, toy Poodle. I currently have 4 cats that have rescued. My puppy is doing well. I have had him for a year still working at potty training. In the evening. I usually spend time watching TV with Tallow (puppy). Socialize, socialize socialize! Working with my poodles hair while watching TV also provides bonding time and patience for you and your puppy.
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve self-trained my own dogs and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, leave it, and leash manners (especially helpful for puppies and energetic dogs). I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures who requires medication, so I’m confident with administering meds and supporting pets with special routines or extra care needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly helped neighbors and friends with pet sitting and daily care. I’m attentive, calm, and safety-focused, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I also groom and bathe my own dogs, and while full grooming isn’t typically part of my services, I’m absolutely willing to help if an urgent situation arises. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of needs. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins, including hourly relief when needed, and I can do multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Because I’m home often, I’m also able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and routine support. Care looks a little different depending on whether I’m in your home or mine, but my top priorities are always safety, routine, and clear communication. I expect to communicate frequently during your pet's visit with me. In my home: For daycare or boarding, I require that dogs are crate trained, since dogs will be crated overnight and anytime I’m not home. I also require up-to-date vaccine records to keep everyone safe. I have two dogs of my own, so I carefully monitor introductions and compatibility. We do have a yard, but it is not fenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash. In your home: During our meet & greet, we’ll go over your pet’s routine in detail (feeding, potty breaks, walks, medication, etc.). I ask that any important care instructions are also listed in your pet’s Rover profile in writing, so everything is clear and consistent. I’m happy to follow your household routines as close as possible during the visit.

My schedule is always open when there’s a need to help someone out last minute, especially for my lil furry friends. I treat every animal as if it were my own, I save animals weekly, so there safety and well being is my first priority, they have to be on a lease at all times when walking. My home is very quiet it’s just me, if your baby needs any special treatments I’m your girl.

About: I have two dogs of my own. Both are very friendly and get along with other dogs. They have been to the dog park multiple times. I am home most weekends, evenings, and throughout the day on weekdays. I will treat your dogs like my own. I have flexible rates if you need me to watch more than 1 of your dogs. I have flexible rates if you need them watched for an extended amount of time. I have a son who has been raised with dogs since birth so he will treat them well and is not afraid of dogs at all.

I also have flexibility to leave work for an extended lunch. I have the flexibility needed to care for your pets. I have friendly pets who are used to other animals. I am happy to accommodate your pets schedule and make this as smooth as possible.
About: Your pet is treated as my own and a family member. Your fur baby is not crated unless you request that and provide the crate. Your pet gets to go outside and run and play several times a day. I go out and encourage playing and running for exercise. When the weather permits, we walk through the field and explore along the canal. If your pet is older and doesn't want to play or explore, that's ok. I have plenty of shaded areas for them to just lounge and take a snooze while I sit with them and read. I would love to share your fur babies with you. Must provide proof of all shot records (including Kennel Cough vaccine). I insist on a meet and greet to make sure that your fur baby is going to be a good match with our family. I do not board pit bulls (or pit mixes), German Shepherds, Rottweilers it any aggressive dogs for my safety as well as my pup. I am retired. I never leave your pups alone. If I need to run to the store, my husband is here with the pups. When the pups are outside, I'm outside work them. I have a large fenced in back yard and a standard poodle that would love to play with your pup/pups and keep them company. She loves having new playmates.
“Sarah was incredibly thorough and made sure that my dog felt comfortable in a new space! Thank you so much for your time and giving Lou Lou an incredibly fun experience.”
“She was very kind and respondent to requested service at last minute. She definitely seemed like she knew what she was doing, not only does she watch them and do the necessities she goes above and beyond and trains them too while under her care Highly recommend!!”
“Our dog has gone to Zachary’s several times for doggy daycare and he loves it! Each time he comes home happy and tired from playing with his dogs. Would definitely recommend!”
“Holly was able to accommodate my very last minute booking request and I am so thankful! She took Lucy for a few walks throughout the day and I could tell that Lucy was well taken care of. Thank you again, I really appreciate it!!”
About: Hi! I’m Corey — a pet-loving guy who truly understands how deeply animals become family. I’ve spent the last 15 years caring for dogs, including two beloved seniors who recently passed in 2021 and 2025. Betty, an English Bulldog who was “thicker than a bowl of oatmeal,” and Sadie, my blue-tick coonhound/beagle mix who was a true treat connoisseur with a heart of gold. Losing them has been incredibly hard… but also a powerful reminder of just how special the bond with a pet really is. Caring for other people’s pets has become a form of healing and therapy for me. I miss the snoring, the wagging tails, the playtime, and the pure happiness a dog brings into a home. Being around animals fills me with joy, and I pour that love right back into the pups I watch. I have hands-on experience with: • Senior dog care (medications, patience, mobility support, and gentle comfort) • High-energy dogs who need walks and structured play • Bulldogs, hounds, and every personality in between • Smaller breeds like Chihuahuas and Dachshunds Your dog isn’t just a “dog” to me — they’re family, someone’s whole heart. And while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same gentleness, humor, consistency, and affection that I gave to Betty and Sadie. I work from home and can provide exceptional care! Your dog is my main concern during the day and evening and will be spoiled and loved! I will treat your pet as my own and follow all instructions provided to me about your dog(s) routine and schedule. I truly care and want to make your experience easy and stress free.
“Our pup Maggie was in great hands with Kirsten J. We have never left her alone or have had her boarded with anyone until now. Communication was terrific and Maggie came home happy and exhausted from playing all day long 🙂 we will definitely have Kirsten watch her again in the future.”

About: It seems as if I've always had a cat or dog or both since I was in grade school. At this time I have many kitties and one dog. Some of my kitties are foster kitties. Some I can pet and others I enjoy from a distance. I have 1 dog named Frannie. She is possibly a Rottweiler shepherd mix. In the past I grew up with a standard poodle. I have had a shepherd mix, another Rottweiler mix and a pit mix. I have seen all my dogs and cats thru to the rainbow bridge. I have fostered a litter of labrador puppies. That was fun! I currently help my mom with her pug mix named Chloe. I am currently working part time at a pre-school. I have Mondays, weekends, holidays and the summers off. I work until noon Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays until 3pm I would need to make sure your pets are cared for before I go to work @7:15am. I have a neighbor who helps me let my dog out while I'm at work, so I would be free after work to check on your animal(s). I would then need to come back to my house and take care of my animals and then go back to check on yours. I could do that as often as needed and then longer thru the night. I anticipate every situation to be different so depending on the need. I would be able to keep kitties in my spare bedroom.

About: I’ve been around animals since the day I was born. Currently I’m in college for veterinary technician, and working as a veterinary assistant. Animals are my passion and I love to work with them everyday. If you want a bath, or nail trims done I can also do this as well.

About: I have been sitting for 4 years now including a range of animals from dogs and cats to horses goats and chickens! I love all animals and care like them as my own! I am currently working part time so I have lots of time to play with your animal! I love to walk so exercise can be a part of that! I like to travel and stay in your house to make your pet feel the most comfortable. I believe providing care in a space that they are familiar with is very important!
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for family, neighbors, and friends for the last 6-7 years. I have more experience with dogs— ranging from all sizes and ages, however I love cats and never say no to a feline friend as well! Expected care for the animals from me has included daily walks, feeding per directed schedule, hanging out with them, medication administration as needed, and cleaning up after them after an occasional “oopsie”. Most of my experience has been staying in client houses, so I am comfortable with that, however I am also more than confident with driving back and forth for potty breaks throughout the day. I just completed grad school and picked up a part time job with chipotle a couple days a week. My schedule for pet care is more client-based than anything and I will always work my schedule around taking care of the animals needs first. On days I am working at chipotle, my shifts will be no more than 8 hours long. I prefer keeping the clients pets in their homes for their safety and comfort. I will always put them on leashes unless they are fenced in and I will go outside with them initially to keep an eye on them and to feel out the surroundings myself.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and am skilled at basic training, grooming, and I love to walk pups! Fur babies are my life & I'll treat your pup like family!

I am more than willing to take your pup for a walk as well and provide many updates & pictures! I treat every pet like part of my family.

I will follow each pets normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and special instructions.

I have a very flexible schedule at work with most weekends and evenings off! I can be available during the mornings and afternoons as well! I can adapt to your needs! I live in a multi pet household and know that not all dogs (even the same breed) are the same! I will love your pets as if they were my own!
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. Clients, friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their animals for over 10 years. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages and a background in pet supplies, nutrition, and food. I can administer medication, go on walks, stay in your home, pop in for a visit while you’re away, and give your pet the best care possible. Watching animals is my full time job so you can rest easy knowing that I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I have open availability Monday-Sunday and I’m very flexible. I can stay at your home and keep your pet safe by insuring no foreign objects are eaten, medication and food is given in a timely manner, potty breaks are frequent, and walks are on a leash. If your pet is between 1-15 pounds and needs to take a car ride I can provide a car seat to ensure safety.
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve self-trained my own dogs and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, leave it, and leash manners (especially helpful for puppies and energetic dogs). I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures who requires medication, so I’m confident with administering meds and supporting pets with special routines or extra care needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly helped neighbors and friends with pet sitting and daily care. I’m attentive, calm, and safety-focused, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I also groom and bathe my own dogs, and while full grooming isn’t typically part of my services, I’m absolutely willing to help if an urgent situation arises. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of needs. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins, including hourly relief when needed, and I can do multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Because I’m home often, I’m also able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and routine support. Care looks a little different depending on whether I’m in your home or mine, but my top priorities are always safety, routine, and clear communication. I expect to communicate frequently during your pet's visit with me. In my home: For daycare or boarding, I require that dogs are crate trained, since dogs will be crated overnight and anytime I’m not home. I also require up-to-date vaccine records to keep everyone safe. I have two dogs of my own, so I carefully monitor introductions and compatibility. We do have a yard, but it is not fenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash. In your home: During our meet & greet, we’ll go over your pet’s routine in detail (feeding, potty breaks, walks, medication, etc.). I ask that any important care instructions are also listed in your pet’s Rover profile in writing, so everything is clear and consistent. I’m happy to follow your household routines as close as possible during the visit.

I currently have one female cat around 5 years old and her male kitten who is 3.5... I also have a leapord gecko (in aquarium)... I grew up with many pets and love all animals, but especially small to medium sized dogs and all cats. I am on disability and home most of the time, so my hours are very flexible. I have an 21 year old daughter who loves animals as well and will love and care for your fur baby along with me. Your fur baby will be treated with the same love and care I would provide my own and will be very spoiled during their stay.

About: 🐾 Welcome to your pet’s home away from home! 🏡❤️ I absolutely love animals and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and care. When your fur baby stays with me, they’ll be treated like one of the family and get lots of love throughout their stay. I provide a safe, comfortable, and fun home environment where your pup can relax, play, and feel right at home while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you never feel too far away from your furry friend! 🐶🐾 I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family member! 💕 I work part time at my kids school and have a very flexible schedule. Then of course I’m off holidays, weekends, and each summer. 🙂 My yard is not fenced in, however I do make sure to go out for each bathroom break and watch them closely on a leash.
“Fern will definitely be going back to Vicki’s again. I never had any doubt about my dog being cared for and loved while staying with Vicki and her family. I would 100% recommend her for dog sitting.”
About: I have been dog walking and house sitting since I was in 6th grade! I wanted to help and earn money for my parents so we could afford groceries! Over time I grew to love watching over animals and their homes! I love every single animal I have come by and absolutely adore taking care of them and getting to know each and every spunky trait they have! I have a very flexible Hybrid job! I work from home Everyday except for Wednesdays! On my office day I work in Twinsburg from 8:30a-5p. If your pup cannot be left alone for 7-8 hours, let me know in advance so I can request to work from home on my office day :) Being active is one of the most bonding experiences between you and an animal! Most importantly I make sure to ask about their animals activity and if they like certain areas to walk in or play! Making sure to follow an animals regular schedule is super important because it can be stressful for them to have a new person in their home and having that person follow their routine puts the furry friends at ease as well as pet parents :) Proper care is of upmost importance !
“I brought our dog Yukon for daycare to Paula & Bill today, and I were a little worried at the beginning since my dog has strong separation anxiety. To my surprise, Yukon adapted so well in new environment. He felt comfortable very quickly, and had great time with Paula,Bill and their two dogs Marty &Ginger. iIt was clear he was well cared for and given lots of attention. It means so much to us to find a loving, patient, and responsible family to take care of our fur baby. We truly appreciate the warm and safe environment they provide. We definitely will come back again! Highly recommend!”
“Kelly and her family are super nice, even with my hectic last minute scheduling. The pups went instantly with all the attention they were getting during our first meeting. I got random updates and some super cute photos of them during their first visit with her. Kelly is definitely an animal lover and it proves that she enjoys pet sitting!”
“Last minute booking and Jenna accommodated us. Nice big backyard. There was some bad weather coming and she asked how my pup handled storms. Very conscientious and made me feel more relaxed about leaving him.”
