“Vicki is beyond amazing as a dog sitter. My lab has so much energy and the day he came home after a week with Vicki and her other dogs, he did nothing but sleep! While at the sitters he took great advantage of the dog friendly swimming pool and large yard. Vicki sent me pictures everyday and let me know what adventures my dog was experiencing. I highly recommend Vicki - she loves dogs!!! We will be a repeat customer ?”

“Gail did a great job for us while we were over seas. The girls had lots of attention and play time. Most important was that our one dog received all of her medicine daily. We worry about them getting everything they need. We will definitely use Gail again.”

“We feel so fortunate to have found Mark and Vicki. They loved our Heidi almost as much as we do! We appreciated that they only keep small dogs, and while Heidi was there, she had the company of another of their small dog regulars for a few days. We appreciated the many pictures Mark and Vicki sent along with notes about Heidi's visit, every morning and evening. We even felt like they would miss Heidi when we took her home! She even slept on their bed--just like home :). They interviewed us thoroughly and were careful to follow Heidi's routines as far as walks and feeding and snuggling were concerned. Thank you, Mark and Vicki. We will definitely call you the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Stephanie and Matt are excellent. Great communication and picture updates. You can tell that they love your dog as their own. It is the best feeling to leave your dog somewhere they are excited to be! 10/10 will rebook with them.”
“Super nice/living family. After initially meeting them, I was very comfortable leaving my Murphy with them. They have two lovely Beagles and children who obviously love the dogs as well & a perfect indoor & outdoor setting for playing and roaming. They sent me photos and a video which made my day. Nathan even slept downstairs on the couch when my pup seemed worried without having anyone around as it was his first night away from home in several months since a horrific extended stay experience with a facility. I will definitely use them again whenever I need to be away from home!”

“Melissa was great! She kept our Great Dane for a week, this was the first time we left our dog with anyone. She kept us updated with texts and videos. She is very experienced with a wide variety of dog breeds. Her house and land is great for the dogs to run and play. When we picked our dog up she seemed like herself and didn’t seem anxious or stressed at all. We would definitely book with Melissa again, and I highly recommend her.”

“I appreciate Doug’s willingness to do everything possible to make the separation experience easier for Dexter. He was very attentive and kept me informed about his stay. I would highly recommend him for your next trip.”

About: I have helped take care of friends' and neighbors' dogs/ pets for several years. I am very responsible and dependable. My husband and I have previously fostered dogs as well. I am currently working full time but have some time on the weekends to love on pets! My (human) girls would also love to help your fur babies play until they're worn out! We have a large yard that would provide plenty of room to run around. We do not have a fence so we would not be able to safely care for a dog that would take off.
“Cassie is amazing! Her and her family make our pup Miles feel like he's one of their own. She sends regular updates with pictures and he's always a happy boy when we pick him up. We'll continue to book with her whenever needed.”

“Savannah was great! She welcomed Charlie with open arms and an open heart! Couldn't have asked for a better caretaker! Five stars just doesn't do her justice...should be ten stars! Thank you Savannah and family! Kathryn and Milt”

“My original sitter canceled the morning before my trip. I was frantically trying to find a new sitter and Kathleen let me book quickly without hesitation. I am so thankful for that! I recieved messages and pictures while away and I could tell Myles had a great time and was well taken care of. Thanks again!!”

“Such a great experience all together!! Had many updates and pictures! Great communication! Great family! Louis had such a wonderful time! Thank you so much! (:”

“10/10 highly recommend and will def use again!! My dogs were so comfortable and content while I was away. She sends pics and updates. Overall great experience! Her backyard alone is any dogs dream 💕”

“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!”

“Tiffany took care of our pup Ramsay on New Year’s Eve when our original sitter canceled at the last minute. Ramsay seemed to have a great time! I appreciated the pictures and updates to know that he was doing well, and he was exhausted when we brought him home the next day. Thanks Tiffany!”


About: I’ve loved animals since I was little I love their company. Animals have always been a part of my life when I was living with my family we always had a dog and now I have two angels of my super sweet. I am always home to watch your babies. I have two pups of my own that would love the company and your babies would always be in good hands I’m open to anything your dogs need I can take them out however often they need I can crate them if that’s what they need I can give meds
“Aimee did an incredible job taking care of my dog! From the meet-and-greet we knew it would be a great match, but she sent lots of photos and gave my dog so much love I didn’t worry for a second while I was on vacation for a week. I’m looking forward to my next trip so my dog can go back and see Aimee and her family again!”

“After meeting Alicia I knew our dog was in good hands. Leaving your dog with a stranger is not easy, but with a fenced in yard and other dogs of her own, I knew our dog would be properly cared for. Alicia provided us with updates, photos and even went the extra mile trying to conquer our dog’s hunger strike each time we leave him. It’s nice to know other people are willing to love your pet the same as you would so you can enjoy some time away from home. We’ll be back!”

“Thank you Deanna and Maui for letting Remy hang out with you guys!! It’s so nice to not have to worry about how Remy is doing when we’re out of town! Deanna takes such good care of Remy and he has a blast playing with her dog too!”

“Lexi was fantastic! She did exactly what needed to be done , then went above and beyond what I thought would happen, getting my kitties to come out for attention ( they are extremely shy). I would highly recommend Lexi for ANY pet sitting activities you would need her for… she is kind, attentive and dedicated. Definitely hire her!”

“Shannon came out for a meet and greet a month before my trip. We got along really well so I booked her to take care of my 3 cats while I was out of town. One cat is 17, the other two kittens. We booked twice daily visits for the 9 days I was gone. Shannon was so amazing! She spent time with my babies, played with them, made sure my 17 year old ate. Checkers actually gained weight while I was gone. This never happens! I am so beyond pleased with how Shannon took care of my cats and my house. She went above and beyond actually sweeping the litter off the floor and taking the trash out. Shannon even got my skittish kitten to be comfortable around her which is huge. She kept me up to date with texts and pictures. I can tell she cared for my cats like they were her own. I know my cats and they felt at home with her. I have already told her future sitting dates. Shannon will be my sitter for all future needs. A huge thank you to Shannon for helping me enjoy my time away knowing my babies were taken care of.”

About: Hello! I am in Apple Creek. I provide full-time services for you and your dogs. Boarding in my home, daycare, dog walking/hikes. I have had 7 jack russells over my lifetime, rescues and hospice care. We have a Chihuahua Jack Russell mix who is 1 year old and gets along with everyone. I hike a lot and would love to walk your dog. I can accommodate special needs, meds and special diets. I will always respect your feeding preferences. I have completed all training classes from puppy to obedience and certified therapy dog. I am a bit of a dog whisperer and can probably help you train yours if you have any unwanted behaviors. I am flexible so let me know how I can help you. My goal is to make this my full-time gig. Book away! I love to do boarding if you need to go out of town. We will take your dog on walks and give lots of snuggles. I prefer smaller dogs and the older the better. Senior dogs are my favorite . I will spoil them and send them home. I have a fenced in yard. I do have two crates and can crate if needed but this is not a training method I have ever used myself. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and can sleep in bed with us if they want. I will only feed what you bring and respect all of your feeding preferences. Special diets are welcomed.
“Echo had such a great stay—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the start, communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear she was in good hands. What really stood out was how flexible he was with scheduling, especially when we had an unexpected delay getting back. Instead of adding stress to an already hectic situation, he was incredibly understanding and accommodating, which meant a lot. Echo came home happy, relaxed, tired (which is not an easy accomplishment) and clearly well cared for (honestly, I think she might’ve been a little disappointed to leave her new babysitter 😄). It’s such a relief knowing there’s someone trustworthy and kind to rely on.”

“Sylvia has been watching my two dogs for a couple months now every week. She is so flexible with my schedule and so helpful and understanding. Both of my dogs are high strung and one is a puppy and the other is only 2 years old. I highly recommend her. She takes the time to try and train my youngest throughout the day some commands which makes it so easy when I don’t have the time with long days at work. I continue to use her and hope you do too!!!”

“You will love having your pet stay with Vicki. She was very caring for our Maya. She sent pictures to assure us while we were gone. Do not hesitate to book your day care with her !! Thanks Vicki !”
“Connie is amazing! She made sure to keep me updated and send pictures while I was at work. She is easy to work with and helps accommodate your needs. I work long hours and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her. She worked on breaking bad habits and teaching my dog how to walk nicely on a leash. Will definitely be contacting her again for future needs.”

“Stephanie takes such great care of my little girl! I can tell because she was excited to run up to the front door each day! I will absolutely continue to use Stephanie as I’m in the area for work.”

“It was our first time leaving our boy with someone other than family and they made us feel really comfortable. We knew when we left he was in good hands. They sent us pics/videos showing how comfortable he was. Definitely will go back. Thank you!”

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.
About: I have had 2 dogs of my own since I was 12. I have dog sat many dogs for friends and others for at least 6 years. I also went to school for Zoo and Wildlife Biology I am currently not working in the summer. My schedule will change once school starts back up. However, I can still be flexible with my time. I would love to make it work for you and your pet! I have a friendly doodle mix that loves to play with other dogs. I have a big yard to let your dog play while tied on a leash. I also have a crate if needed as well as a baby gate.
“Faith was an excellent first-time sitter for my dog. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel welcome and comfortable. My dog enjoyed her day at her house and came back happy and well-cared for. I highly recommend Faith for her professionalism and genuine love for animals!”

About: I have been a responsible and loving dog and cat owner my entire life. Now that I am retired, I can help you care for your pets. Since I am now retired my schedule is totally free and flexible. I am available most days and times. I hope I am available when you need me. If you are local, I am available to provide daily visits with your pet which can include a walk, playtime and feeding. I can also spend the night at your home, if you prefer. If you live farther away, I would need to stay in your home to care for your pet. I am responsible, reliable and trustworthy!
“During our initial meet and greet a month ago Yana responded well to both Sherri and her husband Don. Their home and yard is lovely and well kept. When dropping Yana off for a day of doggie daycare this week she immediately warmed up to Sherri upon entering the home. Her tail was wagging...great sign! I so appreciate Sherri's warmth, friendliness and knowledge of pups and what they can get into! I felt very comfortable leaving Yana at their home and will not hesitate to use their services again. I haven't traveled without my girl since I adopted her but now I feel I can with Sherri's help. I so appreciate her willingness to open her home and schedule to help us pup parents! Thank you Sherri!!”

About: Hello, my name is Ashley. Over the past several years I have owned many dogs of all shapes, sizes, medical conditions and personalities. I have owned two pugs, Stanley and Missy, a Rottweiler, Kalia and an English Mastiff, Roxy. I currently have the cutest wigglebutts on the planet. I have an olde English bulldogge named Willow Jean and a doberman named Malik. I do have a full time job, but have some flexibility that I am able to assist other dog parents from time to time. I understand what it's like being out of town, working late or just needing someone you can trust to care for your animal when you are not able to. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! I'm currently working, but have flexibility with my schedule. I can drop in, do walks or a mixture of both. We will figure out what works best. My dogs are my babies. My children always say the dogs are my favorite kids 😁. I will care for your animals as I would my own, with love and kindness.
“Rikki was fantastic! My pup has seperation anxiety, and between the big fenced-in yard and other pups, he barely realized I wasn’t there. If I’m ever back in the area we’ll be visiting Rikki again for sure.”

About: Studied at The Ohio State Agricultural Technical Institute. I have previous experience working in a dog kennel at Sharon Center Veterinary Hospital. Am comfortable with injections and giving other forms of medication via pill and topical. I have experience working with nervous and excited dogs, young and elderly, even disabled. My number one priority is the animal's safety, after that it's all about When a pet comes to stay at my home they receive lots of belly scratches, the occasional treat (if you allow), and play time. My number one priority is safety, I have baby gates and unsafe items out of reach. I have two friendly elderly dogs, a cat, and two well behaved children. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I allocate time each day for feeding, playtime, walks, and grooming to ensure my pet's well-being. In both my home and my clients' homes, I tailor my care to meet the specific needs of each pet. This includes feeding, grooming, exercise, and any necessary medical attention. I also prioritize creating a comfortable and safe environment for them to thrive in.

“We had to go out of town for two weeks and leave our 13 year old lab at home with a relative. Sylvia came to the house to feed, give meds, take walks with her and give her the attention, that she craved. Sylvia sent us pictures and videos of their time together. She adjusted her schedule to give additional help when needed. We were at ease knowing our dog was in such capable hands. We highly recommend Sylvia.”

“Alicia made me feel confident to leave my puppy and 3 cats in her care for the day. My puppy got plenty of enrichment and Alicia gave my disabled cat her medication as instructed. Thanks, Alicia!”

“Alexandra is a very nice person. We felt like we knew her right away. She was very concerned on doing things they way you asked she actually took notes. I knew right away my dog would be in safe hands as well as our home. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Lexi is super sweet and prompt! She is very communicative about everything going on with my baby and Storm is very grateful to have her for walks/playtime when mom is busy 🐾❤️”

About: As someone who travels regularly, I understand the burden of finding someone who will love my pets as much as I do. Having grown up with dogs and cats of all sizes, behaviors, and demands I can assure you I’ll make your beloved pets feel safe and happy while you’re away! (I’ve provided care for puppies, diabetic dogs, senior dogs, large breed dogs, and in multi-animal homes) While my schedule as a student can be demanding, I will always prioritize time in my week to spend with pups. To ensure positive meet ups, I rely on good communication with my clients and prefer scheduling a few days ahead of time! To promote a smooth transition for your pet, I will prioritize the routine you’ve already established with them (favorite times and locations to eat, walk, play). As a guest in your home and life, I feel it’s very important to respect any and all rules you’ve set for your animals.

“Shannon was amazing. Not only did she watch the animals I requested but she checked in on my other animals as well. My two dogs are a bit feisty but she handled them no problem. She even made me aware of a behavioral concern and also gave advice on how to address it. I was a first time Rover user and am highly impressed. The peace of mind the service gave me plus the exceptional care that Shannon gave my animals is beyond words.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up in a home with 3 dogs at all times. We have had a range of small pups, and also big/high energy ones like golden retrievers and huskies! I did obedience classes and shows with my Yorkee Poo for 4 years. I have provided dog sitting for close family friends for many years now, including walks, feeding, bathing, transporting (for a dog breeder), and boarding. I also raised five husky puppies, so I have a lot of experience with young pups, too. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine because I work from home while starting my own business, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins and walks any day of the week. I grew up with pets as a daily part of life, so caring for them feels familiar, natural, and genuinely fulfilling. Whenever I am caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow any specific direction given by the pet owners. Whether that is s feeding schedule, regular walks, cuddles, or crating, I always make sure to understand a client's expectations and take care of their animals with the same love and care that they would.

“Vicki is beyond amazing as a dog sitter. My lab has so much energy and the day he came home after a week with Vicki and her other dogs, he did nothing but sleep! While at the sitters he took great advantage of the dog friendly swimming pool and large yard. Vicki sent me pictures everyday and let me know what adventures my dog was experiencing. I highly recommend Vicki - she loves dogs!!! We will be a repeat customer ?”

“Gail did a great job for us while we were over seas. The girls had lots of attention and play time. Most important was that our one dog received all of her medicine daily. We worry about them getting everything they need. We will definitely use Gail again.”
“Stephanie and Matt are excellent. Great communication and picture updates. You can tell that they love your dog as their own. It is the best feeling to leave your dog somewhere they are excited to be! 10/10 will rebook with them.”
“Super nice/living family. After initially meeting them, I was very comfortable leaving my Murphy with them. They have two lovely Beagles and children who obviously love the dogs as well & a perfect indoor & outdoor setting for playing and roaming. They sent me photos and a video which made my day. Nathan even slept downstairs on the couch when my pup seemed worried without having anyone around as it was his first night away from home in several months since a horrific extended stay experience with a facility. I will definitely use them again whenever I need to be away from home!”

“Melissa was great! She kept our Great Dane for a week, this was the first time we left our dog with anyone. She kept us updated with texts and videos. She is very experienced with a wide variety of dog breeds. Her house and land is great for the dogs to run and play. When we picked our dog up she seemed like herself and didn’t seem anxious or stressed at all. We would definitely book with Melissa again, and I highly recommend her.”

“Cassie is amazing! Her and her family make our pup Miles feel like he's one of their own. She sends regular updates with pictures and he's always a happy boy when we pick him up. We'll continue to book with her whenever needed.”

“Savannah was great! She welcomed Charlie with open arms and an open heart! Couldn't have asked for a better caretaker! Five stars just doesn't do her justice...should be ten stars! Thank you Savannah and family! Kathryn and Milt”

“10/10 highly recommend and will def use again!! My dogs were so comfortable and content while I was away. She sends pics and updates. Overall great experience! Her backyard alone is any dogs dream 💕”

“Tiffany took care of our pup Ramsay on New Year’s Eve when our original sitter canceled at the last minute. Ramsay seemed to have a great time! I appreciated the pictures and updates to know that he was doing well, and he was exhausted when we brought him home the next day. Thanks Tiffany!”

“After meeting Alicia I knew our dog was in good hands. Leaving your dog with a stranger is not easy, but with a fenced in yard and other dogs of her own, I knew our dog would be properly cared for. Alicia provided us with updates, photos and even went the extra mile trying to conquer our dog’s hunger strike each time we leave him. It’s nice to know other people are willing to love your pet the same as you would so you can enjoy some time away from home. We’ll be back!”

“Suzanne watched my Lab for the weekend. She was great with sending pics and communicating with me! She took very good care of my Lola! I would definitely use her again!”

About: I love any type of animal and will provide it with the best care possible. We would go on long walks and play all day! Big, small, medium you name it I will love your dog or cat! I have been around dogs my whole life and would love to care for yours. I am currently a nurse in the area and use Rover when I am away at work so I would love to give back to the community and watch other pups while you are away! I know how difficult it is to find a trustworthy and reliable sitter and always want to treat your pups like my own! I will make sure to treat your home and pet with respect and follow all instructions left to properly care for your fur baby and make sure they get everything they need!
“I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care you provided for my dog, Luna! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. You took the time to understand her personality and needs, which made all the difference. Luna had an absolute blast during her day with you! Thank you once again for giving Luna such a wonderful day. I will definitely be reaching out for future dog-sitting needs, and I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!”

“Thank you for taking great care of my fur babies! I really appreciated the daily updates with pictures and your flexibility with drop off & pick up dates and times as arranging travel plans around funeral specifics was incredibly challenging!”
“Jessica took great are of our dog while we were away. The daily photos she sent showed that Sundance was comfortable in his temporary surroundings, which gave us peace of mind. She has a nice fenced yard where dogs can enjoy outdoors time. She was available for meet/greet and drop off/pick up. All went smoothly!”

“Our pups love Miranda! Our go-to sitter - we know they are loved and taken care of when they are with her. She is very responsive when booking & provides updates/pictures of our babies throughout their stay. Highly recommend!!”

“I would absolutely recommend Makenzie! Makenzie and her fiancé were amazing with Wubbie!! They updated me with pictures of them going on fun little adventures and walks made me feel so comfortable knowing that Wubbie was safe and having a fun time with them!!!!”

“Sydney and her boyfriend completely spoiled my dog with attention during his stay! I loved receiving all of the pictures and updates, he looked like he was right at home with them. We are so glad we found her and are looking forward to using her again in the future!”
