“Dawn watched our 2 miniature schnauzers for almost 2 weeks and was amazing. We have a 15 year old that requires several medications and special food prep, and one younger dog with more energy, and she did great with both. She has a great setup at her house, and I felt very comfortable with her, the care she provides and the environment for the dogs while we were away. She even sent pics regularly so we could see how they were adjusting and get our fix while we were away!”
“Aparajita accepted a last minute request for boarding and took amazing care of Sugar. She kept us informed about how Sugar was doing daily with photos and videos. It made us feel relieved knowing our pup was in such good hands while away from us. We would definitely rebook and recommend Aparajita!”

“Kimberley did an amazing job keeping us updated with a lot of detail and photos of our dogs! One of ours is a mill rescue who needs a lot of extra patience and care and Kimberley did an excellent job accommodating her and helping her adjust. Would recommend!!”

“Michelle is the nicest pet sitter I never met before, she keep us updated with tons of photos every day and let us feel extremely safe when we are not close to my dog. My dog looks happy through out the stay and eat exactly what I told her to feed. Before she give my dog treats, she even texted us and asked us if it is okay to give him this and that. I would highly recommend her as your pet sitter no matter long or short stay.”

“What a great hostess. We knew Elfie was in good hands the moment we dropped her off. Appreciated the images while we were away. Plus, I made a mistake with my booking and Ainura showed me a lot of grace and understanding. Highly recommend.”

“Avery took great care of Teddy when I went out of town and I never had to worried about him as I knew he was in great care. She was very flexible when I had a last minute scheduled change which I really appreciated. Teddy would love to go back anytime we need a sitter! Thank you!”

“Sabrina was great! She treated my dog like family and in turn my dog did the same :) Scout absolutely loved staying there and enjoyed herself so much. I would highly recommend to anyone in the area if you are in need of a dog sitter/boarding. A+++!”

“I was so nervous about leaving our newly rescued bulldog when we went on our first trip. Paula and Thom put all of my worries at ease instantly. Clearly dog-people, they showed him great attention during our meet and greet, asked thoughtful questions about his personality and preferences, and demonstrated a real knowledge and care for dogs. During our trip, I received frequent photos, which I appreciated immensely. Mack seemed to settle right in and make himself at home. Thank you, Paula and Thom, for your thoughtful care of Mack!”

“Nicole was so sweet to our girls. She’s very accommodating and her communication was great! She sent us a bunch of pictures and videos to keep us updated. She has a great yard for your dog to run around. Highly recommend her. I will definitely be back.”

“We took our Lagatto to Janet for a couple days while we had to go out of town. Janet was a wonderful host to Bella, who got along superbly with her own dog Roman and they became best of friends. Janet kept us updated throughout the day on how Bella was behaving which included numerous photos. We couldn't be more happy to trust Janet with our Bella and we will definitely will be using her again in the future. Highly recommend Janet!”

“Jessica was absolutely the best pet sitter! She was so sweet and really loves animals! She has the best setup for watching them in her home! She had a nice area for my cat to be separate if he chose to from her pets - but her pets were awesome also! I highly recommend her to everyone! I had been super anxious and worried about leaving my kitty, but my mind was at ease and I could relax on vaca because I knew my kitty was being extremely well taken care of! She also sent daily pics and notes, which was so great! Thank you so much Jessica!”

“Kimberly did a great job taking care of Finnigan. She sent pictures and updates on him while I was gone. This was his first time being somewhere different froml home and my son's house so I was concerned about hm. Everything was fine.”

“I cannot say enough about Karla! I was so anxious about leaving our Bassett, Luci, while being gone for a big trip! Luci has some separation anxieties. Karla was so reassuring. She let us do a meet and greet and also watched her for a bit another day before she stayed. I got pics and videos daily of their many adventures - walking, rural king, and the dog park! This brought me so much joy! Luci enjoyed having playtime with her dogs too. They truly treated Luci like their own. I highly recommend Karla! ❤️”

“Katie did such a great job watching Reggie while my husband and I were out of town for a few days! We received plenty of updates and could tell he was well taken care of when we picked him up. Will definitely be using Katie again!”

“Absolutely perfect with my senior dog. Kept me updated on everything. Sent pictures when asked. And even smoothed over my overthinking of her stay. Nicole will make sure your family member is safe while you are away. Will be using her when needed in the future.”

“Paige was absolutely amazing with my two kittens while I was away on vacation. She kept me updated, made sure they were well cared for, and genuinely treated them like her own. What really stood out to me was how attentive she was she noticed right away that one of my kittens wasn’t feeling well and immediately let me know so I could get her to the vet. I’m so grateful for her care, communication, and attention to detail. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pets were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Paige to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


About: Hi! My name is Zoey, and cats have always been a huge part of my life. I have years of experience caring for my own cats, along with a couple years of cat grooming and cat boarding experience. This has given me a strong understanding of feline behavior, comfort, and care needs. Due to a disability, I had to step away from grooming, but I still love spending time with animals and caring for them. I would love the opportunity to give your cats love, attention, companionship, and gentle care while you’re away. Whether your cat needs playtime, cuddles, feeding, litter care, medication reminders, or simply a calm and loving presence, I’m here to help. I understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level, and I’m happy to go at their pace to help them feel safe and relaxed. Your cats will be treated like family and cared for with patience, compassion, and lots of love!

“If you're new to the area and kmhappen to see that Karla is available, you'll probably have the instinct to hire her. Just snag her help while you can! I have two kitties-my babies, of course, and leaving for an entire week wasn't easy. (Another app that is based around cat sitting didn't have a fraction of the sitters, so I was glad to find someone just as happy to cat sit.) I know she's great with them- especially since I was able to see lots of amazing pics of them after every visit. The shy one sat and let her scratch his neck within a couple days, so... yeah if you're a cat person, you know that's legit lol. I know your dogs would be in great hands, too! The litter areas were immaculate and everything was topped off. She even cleaned up the one "stomach incident," which I said not to worry about before leaving! (We discussed all the possible diet quirks and everything else imaginable prior to the trip.) We couldn't have gone anywhere this long without Karla, and I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again if she's available!!”


“Brody really loves animals and it shows. He will go the extra mile to care for your pets. We were gone for 2 weeks and he showed our cat extra love and attention. He took good care of our chickens and made sure they were fed and watered. I would recommend Brody to love and care for your animals.”

“Rebecca is AMAZING! This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous but she made everything super easy and made me feel a lot better about leaving my kitties for a whole week. We had a mishap back at home after arriving at our vacation destination and Rebecca was quick to respond and offer to stop over two days early to help. Everything was followed as requested and the cats are very happy. I will most definitely be a repeat customer in the future. I'm so grateful to have found a kind, responsible, and trustworthy person to look after my fur babies. Thank you Rebecca!”


“Jon did an excellent job watching Duke. There was an incident where Duke got stung by a bee or got hot spot on his skin while I was out of town and Jon called me and handled the situation very well. I would definitely recommend using him and I know I will book him again.”

“Jessica did a wonderful job taking care of our 4 cats. From the moment I first contacted her, she was willing to come meet all of our cats and see our home before we were away. She was always on time and able to administer topical medicine for one of our cats everyday. We also appreciate that she took out the trash on her last day. We would be happy to have her back to take care of our babies!”


About: I have 3 personal cats in my life . I also feed all the neighbors kittens near my house. I’m 23 currently and my family has had cats my entire life. I also worked with cats professionally at my first animal care job in 2021

About: I have extensive professional experience caring for cats in both shelter and home settings, including fearful, undersocialized, and high-stress cats. My background includes reading feline body language, reducing stress during care, supporting cats through environmental changes, and providing individualized routines that respect each cat’s comfort level. I am experienced with shy, hiding, defensive, and overstimulated cats, and I prioritize low-stress handling, consent-based interaction, and predictable care. My approach focuses on creating a calm environment where cats feel safe, secure, and respected rather than forced into interaction.

“Melanie was fantastic. She is a cat whisperer! She took great care with Rigby’s medical issues and injections, provided daily updates and photos, and somehow got my cat to play with toys she hasn’t touched in years! Highly recommend and I will certainly hire her again!”


About: I’ve grown up with cats around me my whole life and absolutely adore them, even if they may be devious at times. I can feed them, play with them, and make sure they’re living their best lives and taking the best naps while you’re away on your trip.

“This is the second time Jennifer has taken care of our two kitties and fish tank while we were away. I trust her so much and she is just great with them. The cats really enjoy their time with her. We’ll be using Jennifer’s services every time we’re away!”

“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: Worked as a vet assistant for 3 years at a vet office, medically caring for pets and assisting in surgery’s. Then worked for another 3 years at a doggy daycare, interacting and monitoring dogs or caring for the ones that were boarding. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I walk 3-5 miles a day, and would love to take your pup along with me. I currently don’t have a dog of my own, but kids that would love to have one to play with for a day or two. I have a large yard and live on a dead end street. I am always walking to get my miles in or outside with my kids.
About: Aloha! I want to help you and your family member (dog/pet) feel less stressed about being away from each other! I noticed that every time I used a kennel service for our fur baby, our dog would get so scared, stress shed, nervous/anxiety, she would not eat, different times she caught kennel cough (which meant more vet bills), and our dog was definitely unhappy with the small kennel space surrounded by other upset loud barking pups/dogs/animals! I believe I can help your dog/pet feel loved, safe, comfortable, fed, clean, exercised, washed (optional), fun/waggy tails, like family, when you are away. My name is Michelle. I love animals! We have a small dog, bunny and fish! I used to volunteer at SPCA and Paw-sitive (Non profit, walk, groom, and feed stray dogs until they got adopted). I have housesit/housesat and dogsit/catsit/ bird and turtles-sat for friends and was suggested to extend my love on ROVER! (Side note: My husband goes to work during the day.I recently changed our schedule to homeschooling. My 2 kids are used to me caring, playing, and walking other dogs. They loves animals as well. We moved here to Milford, Cincinnati from Hawaii. Ive taught them, and we all have experience caring for animals, see pictures). I have went out of the way to teach , show and guide my children to be gentle, slow approaching/no sudden movements, no chasing, be responsible, ask before pet, be aware and careful around animals. I want to help other families feel comfortable and confident to leave their pet with me. We have our Covid shots and boosters. I am home everyday (except 3-4hours out of the house now and then for groceries or friends farm, or kids play dates). I keep my distance from crowds, we sanitize, and wash our hands frequently. I clean the house and wipe everything all the time. We got a new Hoover carpet wash, and our dog is up to date with shots! Your pet is safe and will be treated like royalty, pampered, loved like our pup/family! I have owned dogs most my life (had my first pup with the responsibilities at 6 years old, and owned/fostered animals for 33 years after) taking care of puppies, adults and senior dogs (a pit bull, a Pekingese, Shih Tzu , then fostered a German Shepard, a Poodle, a black pup Lab), Taken cared of a Golden Retriever, a Pitbull, bulldogs, Soft- wheat Terriers, birds, hamsters, turtles, a class pet guinea pig, and cared for friends cats too (see photos). Yes, I have a small dog but our house is big enough to have another dog/cat/pet around (I can gate, and keep my dog separate if need). Your pet will be taken out for a run or walk at least 4x a day (usually 4-8 times with pictures)! Schedule: I take your/our dog out first thing in the morning, lunch, then around 3-4pm around/after dinner time , and right before bedtime too ( update you with photos)! I will spend time with your dog/pet. I will sit with, read to, massage, comb, feed and pet (constantly check on, if they don’t want to be disturbed)!

I live in a cul-de-sac with extremely caring sweet neighbors that know me/us. Several families around us have animals of their own and I know most dogs have been trained or gone thru training as well as ours. I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too if you like. Your dog/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I will keep your dog/pet on a leash every time we go outside, so they don't go missing or let other dogs bother them. (Off leash free to run roam inside the house and I have a mini tread mill if outside walks and inside play is not enough). Our dog is up to date with all shots, vet visits, and takes medication for tick/flee, heart worms. We give our dog a shower once every other week and when she gets muddy. I can help clean your dog/pet too, let us know!
About: Hello! My husband and I live in Maineville. We have a cat, Koda, and a Golden Retriever, Tucker. We live in a house with a fenced in backyard. Animals are allowed on the furniture. We would love to help out with your pups. We take care of our fur friends as if they were our own with extra love, care and attention. My husband and I work a hybrid work schedule and are home during the weekends. We are home during the mornings and evenings. We both have the ability to run home as needed. I have an fenced in yard and an energetic pup to keep your fur baby company. We have a large crate if needed for your pup while we are at work or away.
“Erin was amazing! It was my first time leaving my dogs at a home and they transitioned perfectly. Erin is so kind and was great with my fur babies. You can tell she has a serving heart and a love for animals. I was also excited for my pups to get some play time with her dogs as my boy is a little timid. We took him to a dog park soon after and he wasn't scared to say hello to other dogs his size. That was so awesome! Thanks again Erin!”

About: I have had plenty dogs around me my whole life, my mom has had small to large breeds of dogs of different sizes. Dogs are such smart loving animals! I feel that they deserve love and the same care as A human. They are family and I love doing it as it relieves alittle tension if I’m having A bad day. Nothing better than loving on your fur babies I would trust them as love them as they were my own, I would crate them if needed. I have A 7month old German shepherd whom loves to play and love on other dogs.
“Avery is very warm and friendly, a wonderful pet sitter who took excellent care of our dog! . I felt our dog was in great hands and was very relaxed and happy. She is very responsible and communicates well.”

“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!”

“Janet was wonderful with my puppy. She has a friendly dog of her own and they played great together. She was very attentive to his needs and took great care of him for the day”

About: I have been helping care for dogs since I was 10. I grew up with Dalmatians, dachshunds, black labs and Dobermans. To say I love dogs is an understatement. Our dachshund (16) recently passed away and my daughters and him were best friends! I am not ready to have a dog back in the house full time but have realized, after dog sitting for a friends and family’s dogs, this would be a great way to help care for others pets. My husband and I work from home so letting the dog out is no problem for us. While we do not have a fenced in yard, we do have a lead to let them out on and take frequent walks. We love to take dogs on hikes in the bike trails behind our house. Working from home enables us to make sure your doggy is well taken care of and loved on. We love walking dogs and playing fetch.
“Parisa took great care of my German Shepard. She provided plenty of exercise for him in her shaded backyard. He came home worn out every day which tells me that he had a great day with her. She also provided daily photos and updates via text. She is friendly and loved our dog while he was in her care.”

About: Hi! I’m Heather — a stay-at-home foster mom, runner, dog lover, and experienced foster/service dog handler based in Batavia, Ohio. After years in corporate recruiting, I’m finally leaning into a life that feels a little more like me — being home with our foster son, spending more time with dogs, being outside, going on walks, and building something slower and more meaningful here in Ohio. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve helped foster and raise more than 50 dogs over the years, including service dogs in training, and I’m also a certified volunteer through the Clermont County Animal Shelter where I walk dogs, take dogs on day trips, and foster here in Ohio. Before moving here, I also helped watch and walk dogs for friends, family, neighbors, and foster connections in Minnesota. I genuinely love all breeds and personalities and really enjoy getting to know what makes each dog unique. Since I’m home most of the day, dogs here get lots of supervision, outdoor time, enrichment, walks, naps, snuggles, and attention throughout the day. We also have a fully fenced yard and two friendly Labs that love having dog friends around. I know how hard it can be leaving your dog with someone else, so I’m big on communication and love sending lots of photo updates throughout their stay so you know they’re happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Dogs receive regular potty breaks, supervised outdoor time, meals on their normal schedule, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I’m not away for long workdays, pets spend very little time alone and are part of our family’s daily activities. Safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced yard and two friendly Labrador Retrievers who are used to having other dogs around. I’ve fostered and raised more than 50 dogs, including service dogs in training, and I’m comfortable managing different personalities, routines, crate schedules, medications, and introductions. Meet & greets are required before all new boarding stays so we can make sure everyone is comfortable and it’s a good fit for both your dog and our home. I want every dog to feel safe, successful, and stress-free during their stay.
About: I’ve been lucky enough to be trusted with baby sitting, house sitting, and pet sitting for the past 10+ years. I pride myself on building honest and positive relationships that last and would be honored to be trusted with your home and/or animals! With a rescue pup of my own, I can promise to provide the same unconditional love and commitment to your sweeties, as I do my own. I am an educator who works part time over the summers! I also only live about 6 minutes from my part time job which gives me the opportunity to have an extremely open and flexible schedule! I am extremely observant and pay attention to detail. As an educator, it is my job to be able to multitask while also fostering emotional and comfort needs. I make sure to do everything to the fullest including following your needs and anticipating what your loved one may want/need next!

About: I have owned dogs my entire life! I have watched and boarded dogs for 10 years. I have a huge back yard and I am home all day/night while boarding. I work from home so I’ll have plenty of play time with the dogs! I am available for day sitting and boarding over night. I have a huge back yard that is not fenced. I will take the dogs out on a leash and provide lots of play time.

About: Hi! My name is Zoey, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have years of experience in pet care and professional dog grooming, giving me a strong understanding of animal behavior, comfort, and safety. Due to a disability, I had to step away from grooming, but my love for caring for pets never changed. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your furry family members — giving them love, attention, cuddles, playtime, and dependable care while you’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and understand the importance of patience, kindness, and creating a calm environment for pets. Whether your pet needs companionship, walks, feeding, medication reminders, or simply someone loving to keep them company, I’m here to help treat them like family. Your pets will be cared for with love, compassion, and plenty of snuggles! Pet care is something I truly love, and I’m so thankful to have found Rover because it allows me to continue working with animals despite my disability. This is my full-time job, which means I have a very open and flexible schedule and can be available anytime — day or night — to care for your pets. I’m dedicated to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether they need cuddles, companionship, playtime, walks, feeding, or just someone patient and dependable by their side, I’m here for them whenever needed.

At this time, I’m currently offering pet sitting and house sitting services in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine.

In the near future, I will be renovating my home so I can also offer boarding services for both dogs and cats, as well as training support. I’m very excited to continue expanding my services and create a safe, comfortable space where pets can feel right at home!

About: I have experience in training puppies and administering medication to older pups. I love taking dogs on walks and playing with breeds of all kinds! I work very part-time and am looking for something else to keep me busy during the summer when I'm home from school, so I am turning to my favorite passion, animals! I always follow instructions carefully, and prioritize the safety of your home and your pets above all else. I communicate effectively and will always be someone you can count on.
“Karla is such a blessing :) She is very attentive to my 2 year old hound mix Olivia. She has allergies (food and environmental) and I don’t worry at all about her going on walks with Karla. I get home from work to a happy, tired puppy :) I highly recommend Karla!”

About: I have had plenty dogs around me my whole life, my mom has had small to large breeds of dogs of different sizes. Dogs are such smart loving animals! I feel that they deserve love and the same care as A human. They are family and I love doing it as it relieves alittle tension if I’m having A bad day.

I have A 7month old German shepherd whom loves to play and love on other dogs.
About: I’ve grown up in a multi-pet household and currently care for three dogs and a cat full-time, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines. From a young age, I’ve had hands-on experience caring for animals, including pet sitting for neighbors starting at 14. I have experience with a variety of feeding needs, including strict schedules, portion control, and working with food-motivated dogs (including using slow feeders when needed). I’ve also prepared homemade dog food, so I understand the importance of proper nutrition and consistency in a pet’s diet. I’m comfortable administering medications, including insulin, eye drops, and oral tablets, and I take care to follow instructions closely to ensure your pet’s health and safety. In addition, I regularly handle daily care tasks like walking dogs, cleaning up after them, and maintaining litter boxes. I’m used to keeping pets on a consistent routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior and will always prioritize your pet’s well-being. You can expect reliable care, clear communication, and plenty of updates so you feel confident your pet is in good hands. My schedule is very flexible over the summer, as I’ll only be working part-time, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and extended visits throughout the day. In the fall, I’ll be starting graduate school, so my availability may be a bit more limited. However, I still plan to offer pet care and will keep my calendar updated to reflect my schedule. I’m happy to work with you to find times that meet your pet’s needs! When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment so your pet feels comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine, and I will follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any specific needs. I take safety seriously during walks and visits, ensuring pets are secure on leashes, aware of their surroundings, and kept away from potential hazards. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior or health and will communicate any concerns right away. Respecting your home is just as important to me as caring for your pet. I make sure to keep your space clean, lock doors and windows, and treat your home with the same care and responsibility as I would my own. You can expect clear communication, regular updates, and photos so you feel confident and at ease while you’re away.
About: I bring extensive professional experience in animal care and behavior, including years in shelter leadership and hands-on behavior work with fearful, anxious, and reactive animals. My background includes behavior assessment, stress reduction, enrichment planning, and individualized care for dogs who struggle with transitions, confinement, or unfamiliar people. I am especially comfortable working with dogs who need structure, patience, and clear communication rather than force or correction. I prioritize low stress handling, predictable routines, and meeting dogs where they are emotionally, not just physically. My goal is always to keep animals safe, supported, and understood while their people are away. I maintain a flexible, well-managed schedule that allows me to accommodate a wide range of client needs, including weekdays, weekends, and varying visit times, with appropriate advance notice. I care for pets by balancing structure with relationship-building. I focus on creating predictable routines, clear communication, and calm expectations while also prioritizing rapport, confidence, and emotional safety. I pay close attention to body language and stress signals and adjust care in real time to meet each pet where they are emotionally. Rather than forcing compliance, I help animals work through fear, overstimulation, or uncertainty at a pace they can handle. Whether in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to create a low-stress environment where pets feel safe, understood, and supported, which allows genuine progress and trust to develop. My pets at home enjoy structure along with play and lots of quiet time. My dog, Albany, enjoys finding hidden treats in a fenced backyard. My three cats, Duchess, Wanda, and Addie, enjoy plenty of naps, wand toy play time, and many hours of cuddling and watching tv.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was twelve, I love spending time with furry friends! I can help train puppies as I have trained 2 of my own, I have helped geriatric and diabetic animals as well. I am a currently student at Ohio State and have free gaps during my day since I don’t have classes on Thursdays or Fridays. I am an active person and go on daily walks myself and so I would love to have a buddy! My apartment doesn’t have many stairs so it’s easy for dogs to come up, I have a huge park right near me where lots of dogs like to go and play.
About: Pets don't need much to be happy. Most are content with some peanut butter for dogs, or maybe a treat for the kittens! We all know that a little patients goes a long way, and we don't always have to understand to be able to help, and give good happy lives :) I'm here to help! Right now I'm fully available. Please consider me a full time pet manager, and I mean I'll walk! I'll talk! And I'll adapt to whatever it is you need done! I care for pets with the focus on maintaining consistency for the pets. So whatever the owner wants. It's important to lay it all out, and allow for small errors on all sides, and later we will build everything we need to succeed and give vitality to the pets!

About: I’m a 19 year old college student attending Indiana University, studying business. I have experience with taking care of both cats and dogs. Currently I have an energetic beagle and two cats whom I care for. I am great for long walks or even runs with your dogs, and I am well versed with handling cats. I am fortunate to not have any time constraints and am available to help out during the day and early mornings. I am however uncomfortable with late nights. I cannot host pets at my house since I have pets of my own. I can care for your pets at your house and do not mind having them in my car if they want to go to the dog park or a specific park to play.
About: I think it’s very important that dogs get their daily exercise! It’s always a bonus for treats. They need their playtime and I ensure they are happy! I would like the flexibility to be able to care for dogs after my full time job Monday through Friday. Mostly evenings will be beneficial for me. I think dogs deserve to be loved and shown attention! I ensure they don’t get into anything they shouldn’t eat and that they are shown affection as well.
About: Life is better with dogs—and my English Bulldog, Dolly agrees! I'm a retired, lifelong dog lover and owner with 6 years of experience caring for dogs for family and friends. I offer boarding at your place (with my dog, Dolly tagging along), dog sitting, dog walking, feeding visits, and playtime, all with lots of love and attention for you fur baby! As a retired dog lover, caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to be available most days and times, ensuring your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. When caring for dogs at your location or mine, I always provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they feel safe and receive plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and walks. Dogs are encouraged to relax and feel at home, and crated or non-crated routines are always accommodated based on your preferences and your pet's needs. Since I'm retired, your pet will not be left alone for extended periods and will enjoy plenty of companionship throughout the day. My English Bulldog, Dolly, is friendly, easygoing, and generally gets along well with all other dogs. She enjoys having a playmate and is always happy to make a new friend. She also sleeps a lot! My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide owners with peace of mind knowing their fur baby is in loving hands.
About: I help my mom nurse pets back to life, I also help care for the 8 dogs I live with, even take care of my girlfriends 17yr old dog. I homeschool my daughter on weekdays and outside of that I would love to help out with your beloved pet when you need me to. I will care for each pet like they are my own and spend anytime and as much time as they need and you need me to.
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!

“Aparajita accepted a last minute request for boarding and took amazing care of Sugar. She kept us informed about how Sugar was doing daily with photos and videos. It made us feel relieved knowing our pup was in such good hands while away from us. We would definitely rebook and recommend Aparajita!”

“Avery took great care of Teddy when I went out of town and I never had to worried about him as I knew he was in great care. She was very flexible when I had a last minute scheduled change which I really appreciated. Teddy would love to go back anytime we need a sitter! Thank you!”

“Sabrina was great! She treated my dog like family and in turn my dog did the same :) Scout absolutely loved staying there and enjoyed herself so much. I would highly recommend to anyone in the area if you are in need of a dog sitter/boarding. A+++!”

“I was so nervous about leaving our newly rescued bulldog when we went on our first trip. Paula and Thom put all of my worries at ease instantly. Clearly dog-people, they showed him great attention during our meet and greet, asked thoughtful questions about his personality and preferences, and demonstrated a real knowledge and care for dogs. During our trip, I received frequent photos, which I appreciated immensely. Mack seemed to settle right in and make himself at home. Thank you, Paula and Thom, for your thoughtful care of Mack!”

“I cannot say enough about Karla! I was so anxious about leaving our Bassett, Luci, while being gone for a big trip! Luci has some separation anxieties. Karla was so reassuring. She let us do a meet and greet and also watched her for a bit another day before she stayed. I got pics and videos daily of their many adventures - walking, rural king, and the dog park! This brought me so much joy! Luci enjoyed having playtime with her dogs too. They truly treated Luci like their own. I highly recommend Karla! ❤️”

“Katie did such a great job watching Reggie while my husband and I were out of town for a few days! We received plenty of updates and could tell he was well taken care of when we picked him up. Will definitely be using Katie again!”

“Absolutely perfect with my senior dog. Kept me updated on everything. Sent pictures when asked. And even smoothed over my overthinking of her stay. Nicole will make sure your family member is safe while you are away. Will be using her when needed in the future.”

“Our dog love his stay with Scott and Alycia. They were very accommodating, quick to communicate and sent us lots of pictures. William went on several walks, played tug with their dog and had a great time with them! Would recommend them to anyone!”

“Really appreciate Melissa's flexibility and responsiveness for our last minute booking. She took great care of our pup, with regular pictures/updates, plenty of playtime with other dogs, and plenty of love from the humans in the home as well. We would definitely book with her again in the future.”

“Want to drop a note of love for Tasha & Joe... my 2 boys have been going to them for almost 4 years now, and I can always rest easy knowing they are in a great home with attentive owners, and other fur friends too. I always appreciate the picture updates they provide too. They're the best!!”

About: Hi! I’m Heather — a stay-at-home foster mom, runner, dog lover, and experienced foster/service dog handler based in Batavia, Ohio. After years in corporate recruiting, I’m finally leaning into a life that feels a little more like me — being home with our foster son, spending more time with dogs, being outside, going on walks, and building something slower and more meaningful here in Ohio. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve helped foster and raise more than 50 dogs over the years, including service dogs in training, and I’m also a certified volunteer through the Clermont County Animal Shelter where I walk dogs, take dogs on day trips, and foster here in Ohio. Before moving here, I also helped watch and walk dogs for friends, family, neighbors, and foster connections in Minnesota. I genuinely love all breeds and personalities and really enjoy getting to know what makes each dog unique. Since I’m home most of the day, dogs here get lots of supervision, outdoor time, enrichment, walks, naps, snuggles, and attention throughout the day. We also have a fully fenced yard and two friendly Labs that love having dog friends around. I know how hard it can be leaving your dog with someone else, so I’m big on communication and love sending lots of photo updates throughout their stay so you know they’re happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Dogs receive regular potty breaks, supervised outdoor time, meals on their normal schedule, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I’m not away for long workdays, pets spend very little time alone and are part of our family’s daily activities. Safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced yard and two friendly Labrador Retrievers who are used to having other dogs around. I’ve fostered and raised more than 50 dogs, including service dogs in training, and I’m comfortable managing different personalities, routines, crate schedules, medications, and introductions. Meet & greets are required before all new boarding stays so we can make sure everyone is comfortable and it’s a good fit for both your dog and our home. I want every dog to feel safe, successful, and stress-free during their stay.
“We highly recommend Kat! Her communication with us while she had our senior bulldog FAR exceeded any expectations! She is so easy to work with and will take great care of your pet. Love her!”

“Katarzyna and Tim were both super nice people. They sent daily videos of our dog playing. Our dog really enjoyed the pond! They both also responded to texts promptly. We will definitely use them again in the future.”

“Tricia watched my 2 cats for a week and a half. She wasn't just a sitter, she LOVED on the kitties and the kitties loved on her and her 2 sweet kids as well! Her home is very clean, nice, very warm and homey feeling. She has all the accommodations needed to watch cats and dogs! She kept me posted with lots of pictures and updates which made it so much easier to relax and not worry while on vacation!”

“Lauren and Wynn were awesome with our 4 year old boxer! It sounds like he had a great time they sent a few pics of him playing. We would love to use them in the future! Thanks so much for watching Buck!”

“Bill and Haley are more than I could ask for in dog sitters… once after my fight got delayed, they were willing to bring my dog Sadie out to the car at 1 am, so I wouldn’t have to drive back the next morning. They go above and beyond in attention, care and kindness. I absolutely highly recommend their services!”
“We had a great experience with Allie. She was a great communicator, sent pictures and updates daily and able to administer our dog's daily medication without issue. I'm so happy to have found someone so close to home!”
