“Alycia went above and beyond when watching Murphy! She's an incredibly warm and lovely person who was extremely accommodating for my pet. I hope to have her watch Murphy again in the future!”
“Avery agreed to watch our sweet Nim the day of & exceeded every expectation!! She worked so well with us, sent us daily updates, and welcomed Nim right into the family!”
“Elisheba was wonderful with my dog. She gave me daily updates on how she was doing and sent me fun pictures of the adventures they had while I was gone. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your pet as she has a true love for animals and she will welcome them into her home and take care of them as if it was her own pet.”
“Patricia kept our dog Daisy for a week and Daisy loved it. Patricia took great care of her, Daisy is a nervous dog and doesn't do well being in a kennel. When we got there to pick her up she was her happy self, not like when we’ve picked her up from a kennel. Thank you Patricia, you will be our first call when we plan our next trip😊”
“We were really happy with the care Kodiak received during her stay. We loved the picture updates and hearing what she was up to while we were gone. Kodi came home much more relaxed than she ever has after staying at the kennel. Thanks for taking care of our girl! We will definitely look to book again for future care.”
“Our dog Cooper returned from a week of boarding as a happy, healthy dog! He had a great time and made many new dog friends. It’s such a relief to find a place where we can leave him, confident that he will be well cared for. Thank you Katie and Jake for all that you did to make Cooper feel right at home!!”
“Def recommend Tasha and Joseph to watch your fur baby. My little guy came back happy and exhausted from playing. He actually stared out the window as Joseph drove away. He’s never done that with any dog sitter. So it felt good knowing Milo was in good hands.”
“Megan and David are amazing! I was so nervous to leave my older girl with her high maintenance health care needs, but I was able to have a relaxing trip knowing she was in good hands. They have a ton of animal care experience and the sweetest dog who was so patient; my girl was able to fit right in with the family. They are quick to respond and gave me daily updates with pictures. I couldn't recommend them enough and hope they are available the next time my pup needs a home away from home.”
“Erin and her family took wonderful care of our dog Maddy. It was such a relief knowing Maddy was loved on and taken care of while we were out of town. She is very quickly responsive and reached out to me with pictures and updates thru out the day. Erin also accommodated us last second as our previous arrangements fell thru and even got us in for a meet and greet the same day I reached out to her. Your dog will be loved on by 5 humans, walked, and entertained while staying in Erin’s home. It is tough for us to find sitters for our dog because she is dog selective. This was the perfect arrangement for our pup and we will definitely be having our dog stay with them again!”
“Kim was amazing with Ollie! She sent photos and updates throughout the stay, so we always knew he was happy and taken care of. It made being away so much easier knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely cares about your pup.”
“Rachel stepped in and helped me out after another Rover cancelled on me less than 24 hrs before my scheduled travel. I’m very appreciative - and fortunate! Rachel is a pro sitter - my greyhound was well taken care of and always had company (dogs & people). I highly recommend Rachel (and family) and will have Prince visit again.”
“Deana was wonderful. Louie liked Deana and family so much he hesitated when it was time to come home. lol! Deana gave updates, pictures, and videos of Louie throughout his stay and treated him like he was part of the family. Louie was sick prior to his stay and they closely monitored his health.”
“Matt was great! Our boys, Hammer & Chisel, were well taken care of! Also, great communication from Matt made our first time using Rover a smooth experience. You won't be disappointed if you choose Matt to look after your fur babies, he's laid back and a pleasure to work with!”
“Finn’s second time with Holly and he ran right inside when we dropped him off like it was his own house! He was so excited to be there and hang with Millie which makes us feel so good leaving him. Thanks again, Holly!”
“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!”
“Our dogs had a great time at Chrissy’s. She’s an experienced vet tech so I felt that they were safe while they were staying with Chrissy. They take great care of their animals and have a nice and big fenced in back yard. I would definitely recommend Chrissy to others if you are looking for a dog boarder, and I will definitely be rebooking her in the future.”
“Annie was amazing! She sent daily updates with photos. I never worried about the dogs the entire time. She made sure she had everything she needed with our older dog's medications and our younger dog's play habits. We will be using Annie again when we aren't able to travel with the dogs in the future!”

“Christine was super helpful and lovely to work with. Biscuit really loved her and sent lots of pictures while i was away making my first time away with her as pleasant as it could be. thank you!!”
“Stephanie is caring, dependable, and I trust her to take care of my pets. It's a relief to have someone like her who is willing to spend her time take care of my furry family members.”
“Emily was the best! Our cats really warmed up to her and she took great care of them while we were away. She even vacuumed when the cats kicked litter out of their box. Would definitely recommend her!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Mengshu and Thomas. They took phenomenal care of our cat Gravy while we were out of town. They came by every day and in addition to the usual things like feeding him and changing his litter box, they also spent significant amounts of time with him so he wouldn’t feel lonely and got to play. They sent loads of wonderful pictures that we saved because they were so good! I would also note that they are both just really lovely, kind people. I trust them completely and would recommend anyone hire them to care for the pets!”
“I can’t recommend Michelle enough! From our very first interaction, she was professional, communicative, and clearly a true animal lover. She took the time to understand my cat’s routine, quirks, and needs—and it showed. While I was away, Michelle provided detailed updates every visit, complete with photos and sweet little notes about how my cat was doing. It was such a relief to see Bella looking so happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Michelle even went above and beyond by watering my plants and making sure Bella gets fresh air daily. Most importantly, Bella—who is usually shy with new people—became best friends with Michelle. That says everything! I came home to a calm, content kitty and a spotless home. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and truly caring, look no further than Michelle. I will 100% be booking with her again. Thank you so much!!”
“Morgan was awesome. She is very kind. She took photos. She was very easy to communicate with. She was on time. I would definitely recommend her and use her again. I have two one year old cats.”
“Debra was attentive, leaving great notes and photos each day so that I would be updated and kept in the loop. I was also lucky that she was able to work in my last minute job and offered to come by for a very last minute meet and greet which was so very appreciated! I would highly recommend!”
“Lauren and Wynn took excellent care of our kitties! One of our cats hates strangers but quickly opened up to them (which is always a good sign). Highly recommend!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Andy was amazing! She was friendly, professional and caring towards my two cats. I was so glad to see my cats warm up to her and I loved the updates/photos Andy provided. Thanks, Andy, for putting my mind at ease while I was gone!”
“Bethany was wonderful! She responded at short notice and was able to come by and give our cat soft food and attention. Very reliable. The pics Bethany sent us from her visits were adorable. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Devynne did a great job, as always, watching my kitties while we were out of town. I always appreciate the care she takes and the photo and video updates! Thank you again!”
“Sara was very sweet and she sent us photos of our babies every day while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. She played with them and kept them company, and kept us up to date every day. Thank you Sara!”
“Victoria is amazing! I can tell she really cares for our boys and they both love getting to see her. She also sends the best pictures and updates so I can see just how happy and comfortable they are with her!”
“Monica is so professional, responsive and trustworthy! We love having her take care of Gadget and Calvin and are so happy with the attention and care she has provided to our sweet pets!”
“This is the second time Zachary has provided drop-in visits to my cat. He was very reliable and went out of his way to make the dates work. Communication was excellent while I was away, and I came home to a relaxed and well-cared for cat. Five stars.”

“My puppy enjoyed the day playing with Brandon and his friendly pets. Brandon was reliable, responsive, worked well with my puppy’s energy level, and sent me a lot of updates during the day. We will be back.”
“Rebecca and her husband were wonderful! I immediately felt comfortable in there home! Jackz our dog is blind and Rebecca was not only willing but happy to help us and Jackz out!”
“Leo went to his first daycare with Katie and he loved it! She greeted him at the door and welcomed him and made sure the other pups were away so he wouldn't be overwhelmed walking in. He loved it and can't wait for his next stay! He was definitely tuckered out from all the fun he had playing with the other pups. You can tell Katie knows how to handle things and is a dog-lover. We're so glad we found her!”
“Jamie was so kind and flexible to help me when our family was going through some medical issues. She took good care of our dog, was an excellent communicator and sent us lots of pictures. We felt he was in great hands. We plan to use her again.”
About: What sets us apart is the genuine care and experience we bring to every dog we welcome into our home. My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and before having our daughter, we fostered dogs, which gave us experience with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and needs. We currently have a friendly 2-year-old lab mix, so we’re very familiar with maintaining routines, exercise needs, and positive reinforcement. One of our biggest strengths is working with anxious or shy dogs—we’re patient, attentive, and take the time to build trust at each dog’s pace so they feel safe and comfortable. We treat every dog like part of our family and strive to create a calm, loving environment where they can relax and be themselves. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home Monday–Friday. Your dog will have consistent companionship throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long periods. During the day, dogs are free to relax, play, and interact with our friendly 2-year-old lab mix. We also incorporate daily walks and outdoor playtime (weather permitting), along with plenty of attention, affection, and structured routine. Because I’m home, I’m able to closely monitor each dog’s needs and adjust care to ensure they feel comfortable, engaged, and right at home. Then when my husband and daughter are not in work or school they will help care for your dogs and play with them. In our home, we strive to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every dog in our care. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of exercise in a secure space. Inside, dogs are treated like part of the family—free to relax, play, and enjoy a calm, structured routine. We can accommodate crate training if your dog is used to it or needs a safe space while we’re briefly away from home. We pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s extra playtime, a quieter environment, or a consistent routine, so they feel secure and at home during their stay.
“Ryan was wonderful with my two dachshunds. Boarded them during the day while we had workers installing new carpet. Sent pics and videos so I had no worries. They came home tired and happy. Would hire Ryan again.”
“Joanne and her husband did a wonderful job watching Frankie! They provided updates throughout the day which I always appreciate. Would definitely recommend them to others and we will absolutely use them again in the future.”
“Jenny and her family were amazing!! They took care of my dog like he was their own. He had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Jenny also sent me awesome pictures of all the fun he was having. Thank you so much!”
“Lisa and John were great! It was a very last-minute booking and they were incredibly accommodating. I felt very comfortable from the jump leaving Lola with them. They helped her get adjusted and she came home absolutely wiped! I will definitely be booking again.”
About: Hi! I’m Margo — a lifelong animal lover who’s been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. I grew up with two poodles and two labradors, and I’ve learned how to care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I currently have a cat and even a donkey, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of animals — big, small, furry, or hooved! Friends and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets when they’re away. I’m responsible, patient, and love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for like my own. I’m a lifelong animal lover and part-time social worker who often works from home. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the time, care, and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in their home, I treat the space with the same respect I would want for my own. I follow all instructions carefully, keep things tidy, and make sure pets feel safe and loved. I take time to earn their trust with gentle attention, routine, and comfort.
“Jonathan was super responsive and willing to do a meet and greet with us. Our dog can be nervous around bigger dogs, so this was really helpful. We were able to do a short 3-hour daycare soon after and really appreciated all of the updates that Jonathan shared throughout Penny's visit. Thanks, Jonathan!”
“Leeann was amazing with a last minute booking and being so flexible on drop off and pick up times. Thank you for finding a calm room for her to stay where she was comfortable too!”
About: Hello! Nice to meet you! I am Meaghan and I live in a safe, quiet neighborhood in Blue Ash. I grew up with dogs of various sizes and breeds my entire life. I had two dogs of my own over the last 12 years, both of which were large breeds (German Shepherd and Siberian Husky). I love dogs and enjoy having them around. I work from home all day and can spend lots of quality time with your dog(s). Your pup will get plenty of outdoor play time and potty breaks. I work from home all day so I am able to provide day care and/or overnight boarding during weekdays or over weekends. If I do have to leave for an errand I tend to separate the dogs in bedrooms and/or crates. I have a large fenced yard (over half an acre) with plenty of room for your pup to run and play. I have crates available if it is needed for your dog. I work from home all day so I am able to provide frequent potty breaks outside.
“Paige was absolutely amazing! From the moment we dropped off our pup, we felt confident that she was in great hands. Paige has a wonderful, open space where the dogs can safely run and play, and she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. It gave us such peace of mind to see how happy and well cared for our dog was. We’re so pleased with the experience that we’ve already booked with her again. We highly recommend Paige to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
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.
“We appreciate Amanda and Mike watching our Golden for a couple of days while we visited the Ark and the Creation Museum. They were very friendly, and Daisy was happy to return the second day. They have a great backyard too.”

“Christine is absolutely wonderful. She has helped me so much with my German Shepherd, Frank! She walks him everyday. She has even made herself available last minute when I have been stuck at work and couldn’t get home to my boy, life saver! I highly recommend if you want someone caring and trustworthy to take care of your fur babies!”
“Susan is an excellent walker! She clearly loves dogs and takes the time to build a relationship with them. She is thorough - sends updates and pictures. I highly recommend her services!”
“Jillian has been walking my quirky and sometimes shy greyhound regularly for a couple months now and she is the absolute best. On time, thorough, understanding, flexible, competent, communicative, knowledgeable. I don’t trust my dog to everyone, but I feel 10000% confident that she’s in good hands with Jillian on their walks!”
“Our family, and especially Maverick and Goose appreciate your attention to weather conditions and everything else you consider for their well being when you take care of them. Thank you!”
“Bethany did an amazing job with our dog Lily. She gave plenty of updates, pictures,and lots of care! She even went above and beyond and brought in some flowers for us and brought in our trash cans while we were away. We cannot thank you enough for your help this week! I would gladly trust Bethany again. 💖”
“Megan has taken good care of our older pup who has a lot of quirks and particular needs. She communicates well, shows up promptly, and has patience when walking with our 17 year old girl.”
“Victoria is awesome!! She is so patient and works great with our crazy puppy!! Victoria always communicates how his walks go and I always feel so confident knowing she will take great care of him.”
“Megan has been awesome walking with our excitable GSD! She is prompt, communicative, and friendly. I love the detailed updates and photos she shares on her walks and trust her to handle our big pup.”
About: I have had 7 cats over the past 15 years, including one that was blind. I currently have 3 cats that are all spoiled rotten. I have a lot of flexibility on the weekends and could check in multiple times during the day. Weekday evenings are best, normally 5pm and after. Since I have 3 cats, I would not be able to watch other pets in my home. I will happily travel to your home and spend time with your pet.
About: I have handled dogs for the entirety of my life, all sizes from small to large, and with a fenced yard, they will have space!! I will be at home all the time, and will be able to give 100% attention to your animal while they are in my care. I have a fenced yard and two fur babies to keep your dog company. I can crate your animal if needed, but have space for your animal to explore
“Highly recommend and would book again! He was great with my dog and followed instructions to the T. My dog was nice and tired for the entire time until I got home from work which is incredible considering Hank has overcome separation anxiety and this was the first time I was leaving him in his crate for an entire work day. So walking him and getting his anxiety/energy out has proven to be more beneficial than any medication can be for him. I appreciate Alex for getting Hank the exercise and attention. It was a huge relief to be at work and know he's going to be well taken care of,”
“Allison has been great! Super friendly and helpful when scheduling, and she has great availability. This is the second time she's taken our Aussie pup on a walk to help get some energy out. Love getting the pictures of her time with him and the note she leaves about their time together. Will definitely keep using Allison”
About: I am a full time pharmacist with a unique overnight schedule. I love all animals so I am looking for some jobs on the side caring for animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters, chinchillas and parakeets. I work third shift 7 days on and 7 days off so I have a very flexible schedule to care for your pets. I can make any schedule work. I have a non social bulldog so I am able to care for a cat or dog in your own home and could care for a smaller caged animal in my own.
“Margo was amazing walking our 3 dogs. Very friendly and communicative. I really appreciated the pictures and proactive communication. We will absolutely use Margo again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have always loved animals! I've been a pet and house sitter for friends and family for over a decade, and I'll show the same care for your pet and space that you do! I work evenings so I would have availability in the morning and early afternoon. I would also be available for pet care full time on the weekends. I will always make sure your pet gets the full attention and care they deserve! Your home will be left just as clean as I found it, and I will treat it with respect.
“I haven’t used Rover in probably 10 years. I was hesitant to go back to it because you never know who’s going to be taking care of your dogs. I just finished my first week having Andrea walk the dogs and I can’t begin to explain how highly I would recommend her. From the pictures and updates she’s sending, to going above and beyond making sure I know that she’s walking the dogs the full-time. I’m just hoping she doesn’t stop doing this anytime soon because she is amazing!”

“I will definitely be asking Hailey to watch Cooper again. She is very nice and Cooper seemed very happy when I came back. She sent me videos and pictures of him while I was gone. He gets along with her dogs very well. I also like her set up where Cooper slept and the fact that she has a fenced in yard. She took care of Cooper like he was her own.”

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!”
