“John took great care of our dog, and was excellent to work with. Prompt communication, and he was very accommodating and supportive with an injury our dog has. Highly recommend.”

“Brendan and his family took great care of my 3yr old Lab - Indy. Clear communication, quick responses, updates with pictures, easy check-in and check-out. Not to mention, his little pup Ollie.

“Amanda was wonderful with my lab! My dog is a senior technically (although I won't tell him that- lol) and has multiple medications that must be administered multiple times a day. I realize it's a pain and an inconvenience when watching him but Amanda had no issue with it. This was my first time using Rover and the longest I've been away from my dog and she made the process so easy and stress-free. I loved the daily pictures and updates while I was gone-gave me a little extra comfort knowing he was being well taken care of.”

“I liked Chloe the minute I met her. She came over for a pre visit to meet my cats and learn about their routine. Ava and Tucker warmed up to her right away and I knew they would be in good hands. Chloe arrived on schedule for four mornings and five evenings to feed, play with and attend the litter box. When I arrived home from my trip, the house was in order, and everything looked as I left it. I’ll definitely request Chloe again. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”
“I recently moved to Ohio and needed to find a new pet sitter. This process has always been so stressful, needing a person my pets liked and I trusted. I lucked out when I found Cheryl! She is a true animal lover who is professional, trustworthy and genuinely kind. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I have been around cats my whole life and have always loved caring for them. I regularly pet sit for my best friends 3 cats when she's out of town. ( Every 2ish months ) I am comfortable caring for multiple cats at once and handling their daily routines! Feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and giving LOTS of attention! My main priority is making sure they're comfortable and happy while their owner is away. I also understand each cat has their own personality and needs, and I am happy to give them the patience, attention, and care they're used to!

About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including both large and small dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, turtles, and fish. My professional background includes working at a veterinary clinic for several months, followed by a year and a half at an animal humane society, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals with diverse needs. I currently work at a doggy daycare, where I continue to build my knowledge of canine behavior, safety, and care. In addition to my professional experience, I have provided dog and house sitting services for family friends. I am experienced in caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs, ensuring they receive the patience, attention, and specialized care they require. As a lifelong animal lover, I also care for a variety of pets of my own, including three dogs, five cats, a rabbit, and a betta fish. My hands-on experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments allows me to provide dependable, compassionate, and attentive care for every pet as if they were my own. I work Monday through Friday, typically from 6:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., which gives me plenty of time each afternoon and evening to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship for your pets. I also have weekends completely free, allowing me to dedicate full days to giving your furry family members the love, attention, and care they deserve. I am committed to ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I tailor my care to each pet's individual needs and always follow the owner's instructions and routine. I strive to provide at least 30 minutes of playtime and enrichment activities during each visit. For pets without access to a fenced yard, I also provide approximately 30 minutes of neighborhood walks, depending on the pet's age, size, energy level, and overall health. Afterward, I continue engaging them with indoor play or enrichment activities to keep them mentally and physically stimulated.
About: I have cared for animals of all varieties, worked as a companion animal department manager at Petco and have degrees in wildlife conservation and genetics. Growing up I mainly had cats and dogs, but I’ve expanded my pet collection. I understand that each pet has unique needs and personalities and I will do my best to make them happy. I currently work part time and I have a 7 year old son who keeps me busy. I will make time to care for your fur baby. The safety of your pets is my top priority. I will ensure that they are receiving the correct nutrition and be aware of any food allergies. I will keep your pets at a safe distance from wildlife and unknown pets. I will follow the instructions given to me by the pet owner.

About: I've had at least two dogs my entire life. I've cared for puppies through adult dogs. I have even cared for some with special needs. When your dog stays with me, you also get my whole family to care for them. I'm a stay at home mom and I have plenty of time to care for your baby. I can be with your dog at all times. I have a fenced in yard and three dogs who would love to play and snuggle. I will also walk your dog if you'd like.
About: Hi! I’m an experienced, compassionate pet sitter who truly believes every animal deserves to be treated like family. 🐾 I’ve been a pet owner my entire life and have spent the past 3 years working professionally as a pet sitter through an established pet-care company. I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, hamsters, snakes, skunks, and more. I absolutely love animals of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities—including exotic pets and farm animals! 🏡 Dog Boarding in My Home I offer boarding in my home for dogs under 40 pounds. Your dog will be welcomed into a loving, pet-friendly home where they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and cuddles. I have two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and six cats, so my home is truly an animal-loving environment. Because of my resident pets, I want to make sure every boarding guest is comfortable around other animals and is a good fit for our household. I’m happy to discuss your dog’s personality, routines, and needs ahead of time to make sure everyone has a safe and enjoyable stay. I do not crate pets unless that is your preference or part of their normal routine. 🐾 Care in Your Home — Dogs of Any Size & All Animals For dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting in your home, I’m happy to care for dogs of any size, as well as cats and other animals. Whether you have a tiny puppy, a large dog, multiple pets, or a variety of animals, I can provide loving, dependable care tailored to their individual needs and routines. As someone who has used professional pet-sitting services myself, I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of love while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pets feel happy and cared for—whether they’re staying in their own home and routine or enjoying a vacation at my home. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, kittens, seniors, and pets with special needs. I’m also experienced with administering both oral medications and injections. You’ll receive daily updates (or more frequently if you prefer), including photos, so you never have to wonder how your babies are doing. For your added peace of mind, I carry my own pet-sitting insurance. I’m also a non-smoker and non-drinker. Whether you have one dog, a house full of cats, an exotic pet, or a whole farm of animals, I’d love the opportunity to care for them! ❤️ Please feel free to reach out with any questions about me, my services, or my rates. I’d love to meet you and your pets! 🐾 Flexible, At-Home Pet Care Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to give your pets plenty of love, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My flexible work schedule allows me to adjust my hours around your pets’ needs, whether they’re staying in their own home or boarding with me in my home. When your dog stays with me, they won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles, and attention throughout the day, while still allowing them to relax and feel comfortable in a home environment. For pets I care for in your home, I can work around their normal routine and provide the individualized care they’re accustomed to. Whether your pet needs regular walks, medication, playtime, extra potty breaks, or simply someone nearby for companionship, my flexible schedule allows me to be there for them. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for—whether they’re staying in their own home or enjoying a stay at mine.❤️ 🐾 Caring for Your Pets in My Home or Yours Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, my priority is always their safety, comfort, and happiness. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so they receive personalized care and plenty of love and attention. I’m experienced with administering both oral medications and injections, and I’m comfortable following specific instructions to help keep your pet’s routine consistent while you’re away. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, I’m also happy to help with the little things that give you extra peace of mind, including bringing in your mail, watering plants, taking out the garbage, and keeping your home looking lived-in. Most importantly, your pets will receive plenty of companionship, affection, playtime, and attention. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your pets are being cared for with the same love and attention I would want for my own. ❤️
About: My family loves animals and we would love to take in your pet for the day! We have a dog park and love to go on walks during the evening. Cats are also welcome as we love to snuggle them ❤️. Your pets will be safe and loved in our care and I am able to communicate with you over phone as much as you need during their stay. We currently just moved from an apartment to a townhome so we have a bit more space now for the animals to lounge around and play! I’m a full time at home mom! Taking care of animals makes me so happy. I always hoped to go into Veterinary medicine one day. Right now I have all the free time in the world to take care of your pets when needed ❤️ Pets will be able to run and play in our home. Feeding will depend on how often you need me to feed. Potty breaks often. Dog park on days with nice weather or walks through the trails in our neighborhood!
“Beka and Ryan cared for my Cavapoo Tino for a second time on short notice. Tino happily went inside when he was dropped off for his second day. He was also happy and content when he was picked up. Communication with Beka was great. I would use Beka and Ryan again.”
“Joe and Laurie love dogs like their own! Teddy had a fabulous afternoon with them. Had a nice long walk in their lovely neighborhood, and send the sweetest photos. Highly recommended! 🐶❤️”
About: Ive been pet sitting since I was 12 years old and have only gained experience and skills since then. Ive been boarding, training, walking, and feeding animals of all sorts for years. I’m a very flexible person. If your baby needs multiple walks, a strict schedule, or just a lot of affection I’m enthusiastic to fill their needs. I have experience with all ages, blind, deaf, and other needs, various breeds, and sizes. I also have experience with emergency medical care and administering medications. My work history also includes handling and caring for multiple dogs at once. In addition to that, I also have experience working with animals that cannot be around other dogs or animals and know how safely care for them. Safety, health, and happiness of the animals is my priority in that order. I can make my own schedule so I have open availability. Evenings, weekends, or holidays. None are a conflict. I keep my calendar up to date. I have two fenced in dog parks on my property. I'm minutes away from multiple parks with trails. I make sure I follow the given schedule but at the same time offer new and stimulating experiences
“Alij is such a sweet and caring sitter. She kept me updated and made me feel comfortable while I was away from my dogs. I’m so grateful for the great care she gave them, and I’ll definitely be booking her again.”
About: I’ve been involved with dog rescue for many years. I worked with virtually every type of dog there is. From shy, timid to very high energy. I’ve had dogs that had aggression issues. I worked with dogs on leash training, housebreaking, and socialization. I am retired. I have nothing but time on my hands! I volunteer Thursday mornings at an equine therapy barn. But I will still have time to take care of animals on Thursdays. I am open to caring for dogs in my home. But! They have to be dog and cat friendly. I would prefer not to have younger dogs, only because my dogs are older and don’t like young dogs, jumping all over them. My dogs are very dog friendly though. My cats are very dog friendly. In fact, they prefer dogs over our cats!
About: Your Pup's new bestie! You can trust your pup with this safe and caring dog lover ! I provide fun and cozy care for your furry friend while you're away. As a Leadership and Financial Coach who works from home, I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life. My own beloved dog, Kara, is part of my family—she enjoys a balanced meal of boiled turkey, sweet potatoes, and dry duck food, and we share daily walks in our safe, quiet neighborhood. Every afternoon at 5:00 PM, we take a special pause for fun playtime together. I live in a welcoming end-unit townhome that features a lovely yard and a private walkout basement with plenty of grassy space. You can trust that I will care for your pet with the same love, warmth, and dedication as I do for my own. Your pet will be treated like my own pet, i.e., allowed on the furniture and bed, unless they use a crate or they have a bed. I use a retractable leash with built-in flashlight, that includes a poo bag holder. Happy to give them a bath with sensitive skin dog shampoo. If they need a nail trim, just let me know, it's a little extra but worth it. If I missed something, just let me know, happy to accommodate as I can. If I am at your house, I will follow your instructions according to your needs while also doing the same above.
“David was great with Myles. He is already going to potty outside after just a week of training with David. I can already see a difference with his behavior and his separation anxiety and also the way he interacts with other dogs. His personality is starting to shine now. I think after a few more weeks of training Myles is going to be in great shape.”
About: As a dog owner myself, I truly understand how much your pup means to you, they’re family, not just a pet. I currently have an 8-month-old Golden Retriever puppy (Moomin) of my own, so I know firsthand the energy, playfulness, and training that goes into raising a happy, well-adjusted dog. Over the past year, I’ve handled daily walks, feeding, playtime, and all the little routines that keep a dog happy and healthy. I love taking dogs to the park for fresh air, playtime, and socializing with other pups, but I’m just as happy keeping them calm company at home if that’s what they prefer, I adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level. I’m attentive to every little cue, whether it’s excitement, anxiety, or just wanting a belly rub, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable the whole time. I also like to keep you updated with quick messages and photos throughout our time together, so you always know your pup is happy, safe, and having a great time. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I’m a full-time software engineer working a hybrid schedule with flexible hours (10 AM–3 PM). I’m typically out of the house on Mondays and Tuesdays, work from home the rest of the weekdays, and I’m completely off on weekends. My schedule is also flexible enough that I can adjust days if needed to match your pup’s needs. On the days I’m home, I have plenty of time for walks, play, and feeding, and I’m usually happy to have a dog keep me company while I work. I regularly cuddle and work alongside my own Golden Retriever puppy, so I’m used to balancing focused work with giving a dog attention, short breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. It means your pup won’t just be looked after, they’ll genuinely have company and companionship all day long. In my own home, I make sure dogs feel comfortable and settled right away, giving them a calm space to relax along with plenty of playtime and cuddles. Since I have my own Golden Retriever puppy, my home is already dog-friendly and set up for a happy, active pet. I take dogs for regular walks and trips to the park, letting them socialize with other dogs when they enjoy it, or keeping things calmer and quieter if that suits them better. I always adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level rather than sticking to one routine for every pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions the owner gives me, so the dog feels as little disruption as possible. I’m attentive to their comfort and cues throughout, and I send regular updates with messages and photos so owners always know how their pup is doing.
“Michael was great! He asked questions to know Rosie better. He kept in touch with us before her daycare date. During her stay he kept us up to date & sent pictures. We would definitely recommend them & would schedule with them again if we visit the area. It was a perfect situation for our Rosie! Thanks, Michael!”

About: I have been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs, and many of my family members have dogs that I regularly help care for. I am comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, giving attention, and keeping pets on their normal routines! I have always had a natural connection with animals, and dogs especially tend to warm up to me very quickly! I am patient, attentive, and love getting to know each pets unique personality!

About: I have grown up having cats and dogs my whole life. I absolutely love taking care of them and giving them as much love as I can all the time. I have experience with walking mine and my friends dogs, and I've also volunteered with dogs and walked dogs from shelters. I currently work part time as a pet counselor at Petland where some of my responsibilities include helping take care of small animals and assisting the kennel technicians with the care of our puppies. I am newly married and am wanting to make some side money while working part time. I couldn't think of a better way to spend my free time than with dogs and cats and loving and caring for them. I am extremely flexible to help out, I was a previous college athlete and I'm very active throughout my day, I can help with dog walking, as well as looking after your pets. I am trustworthy and can guarantee I'll give your dogs/ cats plenty of kisses and cuddles. I love walks myself and love to take dogs on long walks. I can bathe them, brush them, feed them, and overall just play with them and give your dogs and cats lots of attention.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a cat and a 3 year old pit/cattle dog mix. I have owned multiple dogs over the years, including reactive dogs, which gave me hands on experience with different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I worked closely with a professional trainer in the past and gained a lot of confidence in handling and understanding dogs of all kinds. Because my entire family has dogs, I’m constantly around animals and genuinely love spending time caring for them. I understand that every pet is different and that some are energetic and social, while others need patience, structure, and a calm approach. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just having a comforting presence around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away! I currently work full time Monday-Friday from 7-4, however I am fully remote and my job is relatively flexible. Working from home makes life easy as I can take time on my lunch break to do a quick walk or drop in with your fur babies. I’m also available before 7am and after 4pm on weekdays and available on the weekends. I do get bank holidays off and a decent amount of PTO which allows even more flexibility 🙂 While I’d love to welcome every pet into my home, I have a reactive dog of my own, so I currently only offer care in clients’ homes through drop ins, walks, and house sitting. The safety and comfort of your pets and mine will always come first 💕
About: I’ve cared for many types of animals of different shapes and sizes in various animal shelter, grooming, and veterinary settings. From pets, to livestock, and exotic reptiles. I’m currently a veterinary technician student as well. Your Companion deserves Time, Love, and Care and my purpose in life is to provide them that. I’m very passionate about this line of work. As a current full time Remote Veterinary student, I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available 5 days week in the mornings and afternoons. When I care for your pet in your home my routine is to treat them like family and your home like a sacred space. I am more than willing to respect all boundaries put in place in order to do my job properly. I am a helicopter pet parent so your little guy or gal is safe with me.
About: I'm a freelance animation writer and dog lover who has had dogs his entire life and enjoys walking and sitting his friend's dogs. Now I'm looking to walk and sit even more dogs to supplement my writing income while also taking advantage of my extremely flexible schedule. I'm very patient, attentive and affectionate with dogs. When I walk, my attention is on the dogs (not my phone) and when I dog sit, I treat your home how I'd like my home to be treated if someone was staying there (i.e. not really wandering around and/or touching stuff, ha) and again, all attention is on the dog. Otherwise, I'll just be writing away on my scripts. I absolutely love dogs and have raise several from puppies. This is also an outlet for me after the passing of a beloved elderly dog that I had since she was a puppy. I'd be happy to take excellent care of your dogs.
About: I have always loved animals and aspired to be a veterinarian. I will genuinely care for your dogs and treat them as if they were my own. I am a full time school psychologist with a husband and two young children. I will be available to care for pets on weekends and evenings. If close enough to my work, I can let dogs out on my lunch break. I have a fenced yard with two dogs. A lab and golden retriever mix and a bichon/maltese. I also have two cats. We have structured feeding and time outside for the dogs. The cats are indoor and regularly have food out and balance their feeding over time. I can also do basic grooming.
About: I have cared for my own dogs and cats for years, but no longer have one of my own. Let me care for yours when you need me. I am recently retired from full time work, so my schedule is flexible to help care for your pets when you can’t. Pets come first for me. Pets do much better in their own home. Dogs and cats are comforted when they are with someone who is focused on giving attention and love that they need, on a schedule they are accustomed to.
About: I've had a love for animals my entire life and have years of hands-on pet care experience. Growing up with two family dogs taught me the responsibilities of daily pet care, from feeding and walking to playtime, exercise, grooming, and making sure they always felt loved and cared for. In addition to caring for my own pets, I volunteered as a foster with Cincinnati Animal CARE, where I provided a safe and nurturing home for a foster cat. Through fostering, I gained experience helping a pet adjust to a new environment, establishing routines, monitoring their well-being, and giving them the patience and attention they needed to thrive before finding their forever home. These experiences have helped me become a compassionate, dependable caregiver who understands that every pet has their own personality and deserves individualized care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. In addition to caring for dogs throughout my life, I also had the rewarding experience of fostering a cat through Cincinnati Animal CARE. Fostering taught me the importance of patience, creating a calm and safe environment, and helping an animal adjust to a new home and routine. I provided daily care, including feeding, cleaning the litter box, playtime, and plenty of affection while monitoring the cat's comfort and well-being. This experience strengthened my understanding that every pet has a unique personality and needs individualized care. Whether I'm caring for a playful kitten, a relaxed senior cat, or an energetic dog, I'm committed to making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable! My schedule allows for flexibility throughout most of the week. I attend classes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, so I have limited availability during those times. Outside of those class hours, I am available for pet care services, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I strive to be reliable and accommodating when scheduling visits, walks, or overnight care, and I will communicate promptly to ensure your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. At my house I have a fenced in yard so my dog is protected from any of the animals around. Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first. I provide dependable care, constant supervision, and secure walks so you can feel completely at ease.

“Kara is amazing with my cat! She really knows what she’s doing. But on top of her animal cares, she’s also super nice and was willing to be flexible around my work schedule”
“Our dog Sammy had a great time at Melissa’s! He loved snuggling in their laps and having some fun doggy siblings to play with for the week. She kept me in the loop with what he was up to and took great care of him ☺️”
“Susan is so thoughtful and attentive. It was our first time leaving our boys with her and she did a great job with her communication with us and care of our pugs. We will use her again!”
“Misty was phenomenal with our dog Samson. He's a big dog and she walked him, she cared for him she took pictures of him. Wow, I was so impressed and felt so comfortable her. Misty's children loved on him. It was a beautiful experience and I will definitely use her as many times as I can!”
“Luna had a great time with Christina. Receiving the photos of Luna with a smile on her face was so reassuring to us while we were away on vacation. Luna had a wonderful time with Christina's children and their dog Rylee. Christina did a wonderful job. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Luna. I can tell she misses your family.”
“I would highly recommend Michael and Anne! I felt comfortable having my dog stay with them and knew that he would be safe. They sent daily updates and my dog seemed to enjoy his stay!”
“We needed a last minute dog sitter and used the rover app for the first time to find someone close by and I got so lucky to find Chrissy to help us out. The dogs loved the big backyard and played so well with their own dogs. I will definitely use her again. ❤️”
“Sara and Craig took care of my fur baby just like he was one of theirs.. a special shout out to their son who Deisel got attached to he put the icing on his stay... thanks again Job well done!!”
“Kiersten provided a happy, loving, and relaxed environment for our doggo who is often anxious in boarding situations. Boo had a wonderful time playing with her other dogs and Kiersten took great care of her!! Will definitely use Kiersten again!”
“As always, our dog had a great time with Joe and Tasha. He had some recent medical issues and they dealt with it as if he was their own. Can’t say enough about how great they are for boarding!”
“Amanda was wonderful with my lab! My dog is a senior technically (although I won't tell him that- lol) and has multiple medications that must be administered multiple times a day. I realize it's a pain and an inconvenience when watching him but Amanda had no issue with it. This was my first time using Rover and the longest I've been away from my dog and she made the process so easy and stress-free. I loved the daily pictures and updates while I was gone-gave me a little extra comfort knowing he was being well taken care of.”
“Jenna took excellent care of our 10 month old golden retrieve Coco. She and her family welcomed Coco into their home and provided the care and attention Coco needs. Jenna even sent texts and photos which reassured us Coco was doing well. We never like to leave Coco at a kennel when we go out of town. She is confined in a kennel with limited attention. It is good to know we have a wonderful home where Coco is welcomed and will receive loving individual care and attention thanks to Jenna. Debbie R”
“Jennifer was amazing! She sent pictures of Bella and she didn’t do too many so it was perfect. Great spot, great home and I would take Bella back again. 10/10 perfect sitter :)”
“I would use Aparajita again in the future. She treated my baby like one of her own, even talking care of his itchy paws. I was constantly updated with pictures and messages that explained what they did that day and how she treated the itch. I had a worry free vacation because of her.”
“Nicholas and Rachel were awesome! They were very easy to communicate with and flexible with my drop-off time. They sent pictures of Daisy each day and updates along with it to let me know how she was doing. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Jax enjoyed every second with Dantasia!! She has Amazing communication, amazing home suitable for our dog baby! We will always contact Dantasia for boarding.”
