“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!”

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 always does an amazing job taking care of our Harper. He keeps us updated on how she’s doing and sends pictures often. We never have to worry when Harper is with Ryan. Thank you, Ryan for taking such good care of her!”
“I'm glad my dog stayed with Alyssa as she was easy to contact, sent pictures and updates and recognized my dog's needs beyond the regular needs. Archie went on walks, she bought him a lick mat which I will use at home and Archie seems to have made new friends. Archie would love to come again! Thank you!”

“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’m patient, responsible, and I always try my hardest to follow instructions exactly how they’re given.

About: My family adopted our cat Sassafras when I was 10.

I got more experience working with cats at an animal shelter, where I cared for stray cats, elderly cats, kittens, disabled cats, and diseased/quarantined cats, all with unique personalities and varying levels of sociability.

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.
“Jihting was excellent. Met her & family, including Cupcake, beforehand & she was very understanding of our needs, ensured we knew who would be around, that there would be water, playtime, etc. Would recommend & will use again for Ollie's daycare needs.”
About: I am a huge animal lover! I currently have an 12 year old Goldendoodle named Stella. I have had dogs my whole life and can’t imagine ever being without one! I love taking Stella to dog parks, going for walks, or hanging out around town. I would love to do the same with any dog that I would be watching! Stella also loves to be around other dogs and has never been aggressive in any way. I would be happy to accommodate any special needs your fur baby may have! I do have my 3 year old son and 5 month old daughter in the home as well, so the pups will need to be kid friendly! We now live in the Eastgate area, so if you have been a previous client, the address has changed! I am happy to answer any questions you may have! I am currently working from home 2 days a week and in office three days. I am completely free on weekends as well and most holidays. I have a fully fenced in yard and lots of fun toys! Stella loves to play with other dogs. She is 12, but still has her puppy spirit!
“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.”
“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.”

“Lainey had so much fun playing with Willow and Piper! She was exhausted when she came home from her doggy day care day (goal accomplished;) Heather is wonderful and everything that you could ask for in a doggy sitter! She even brushed Lainey with her furminator! Thank you!”
“We enjoyed meeting Jonathan! We left Scotty with him while we attended a concert. He is quick to respond to texts and we appreciated his flexibility around not knowing exactly when we could get back. We would happily use Jonathan again to care for our dogs!”
“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”
About: I have 2 cats of my own - Echo and Luna. They were both rescued as tiny babies and are now 6 and 7. I have cared for dogs my whole like (my own, friends, families). I genuinely love every breed and can walk, play, clean up after or just spend time with any pet! I also am a registered volunteer at a local shelter where I go in to walk the dogs or spend time socializing the cats. I work from home so I could also keep your puppy while you’re at work to help with potty training, etc. I work from home and have pretty free weekends. Depending on location, I can be available throughout the week days and almost always available on weekends and evenings! I would be able to keep certain pets in my home. I have a smaller apartment with two cats and will be working, but for example, I could keep a small dog that doesn’t like being alone or a new puppy that is potty training!
“I was once where you are now. Scrolling through Rover trying to find the best dog sitter/match for your furry family member. It was reading those reviews that led me to Susan. And it was Susan who absolutely saved the day for us. We had a plan that didn’t work out and suddenly needed someone we trusted in a town where we knew not a soul to care for our 3 small pups. Our smallest being a 3 pound tea cup yorkie who suffers separation anxiety when she and my mom (her human) are apart. Susan took time to meet the family and the pups. She followed instructions to insure our 3 fur babies were comfortable, safe, and well cared for. All 3 dogs came back happy and exhausted. - The humans who went to the Ark returned the same… In other words. Ask Susan to watch your pups. She’s solid gold.”
“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: I've cared for dogs, cats, fish, and small animals for 20 years. I am also a reptile owner and comfortable caring for some reptiles and amphibians. I am currently available full time for pet care, regarding pet sitting or daily walks. I am also able to care for and feed some reptiles and most amphibians.

“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!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with cats, and now I have a dog who’s truly part of my family. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for my neighbors whenever they go out of town, making sure their dogs are walked, fed, and, most importantly, loved while they’re away. Being around animals has always brought me so much joy, and I take pride in treating every pet like they’re my own, giving them the care, comfort, and attention they deserve. I will be nannying over the summer on some Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays until around 4 pm so on the days that I am nannying I will be free any time after 4. But on other days I will be free all day long. Whether it’s taking your dog for a walk, letting them out for a potty break, or just giving them some extra love and attention, I’d be happy to help keep them happy while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I treat them like part of my own family. I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and happy by sticking to their usual routine, whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, or just some extra snuggles. I know how important it is for pets to feel secure in their own space, so I always give them plenty of love and attention while keeping your home just the way you left it.
About: I've had household pets my whole life and began to own and care for my own pets when I was around 10. I've loved and cared for fish, hamsters, and frogs over the years. Currently I care for a leopard gecko, a bearded dragon, and several hermit crabs, in addition to helping my family care for our dog and cat! I have experience pet-sitting guinea pigs and walking neighbors' dogs, and have also volunteered in an animal shelter for cats and small mammals where I cleaned cages, groomed, and socialized the animals. I'm a college student (majoring in bio!) who's home over the summer with a part-time job. My availability is variable but flexible, so please reach out with what dates and times you need a service and I'll respond quickly! When it comes taking care of / walking your pet(s), I'll adhere to your directions / all the information I'll receive from you before beginning the job, and remain communicative with you over the course the service.
About: I spent my entire life around animals. I grew up with an Australian Shepherd, who lived to be 18. Not long after that, my family adopted a puppy, and later two cats. I helped to train the puppy, I introduced the cats, and today they still thrive. Theoughout my childhood/teens, I learned about and cared for many-a-creature. Guinea pigs, rats, a hamster, sugar gliders, a hedgehog, and even a dove! My passion for animals has only grown. When I moved away, it was lonely, and I was quick to adopt a kitten. He's almost 6 now! My pets are family, and yours are too. I will always care for a pet as if it were my own! I am currently working from home as a digital artist & jewelry maker, so I am able to set my own schedule and adapt as needed. I currently don't offer visits/walks on weekends, but this might change. Consider me a perfect pick for your pet while you're away during the work week! Whatever you need! I am able to clean litter boxes, crate dogs, play in the yard with your pups, or inside with toys if that's preferred! I am also familiar with Kongs & other enrichment toys. Or if your buddy just needs a pet and a cuddle, I'm here for that too! I can also administer most oral medications. Please reach out with any questions!!
About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life. I grew up with three cats that are now senior kitties and need a bit more care. I’ve been the go to pet sitter for my friends and family for years. In addition I also worked at a dog boarding and daycare for a few months so I’ve met and dealt with many dogs with different energy and social levels. I learned I prefer taking care of animals more one on one, or in a smaller setting. This way I can ensure your pets get everything they need and never feel neglected. My work schedule is as follows: Monday~ 4:30pm-10pm Wednesday~ 1:45pm-9:30pm Friday& Saturday~ 10:15am-4pm or 2:15pm-10:30pm Sunday~ 9:15am-4pm or 2:15pm-8:30pm. My weekend schedule varies from morning to night and i get my schedule one week in advance. I have Tuesdays and Thursdays completely free. I am also happy to move my schedule around if needed as long as i have a 15 days notice. :) I am enthusiastic about caring for animals. I will make sure your animals are well loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a drop in visit or a walk while you’re away I will ensure your pets are safe, happy and comfortable when they’re with me. I’m available for walks, drop in visits or overnight stays.
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.
“Kristenne has been fantastic on her daily walks with Camo! She is friendly, attentive, caring, flexible, great with communication and quick to respond to messages on the Rover portal. We highly recommend her after our first week of service.”
“When Sutton and I met Lauren and Wynn, it was easy to chat with them and Sutton instantly loved them both! She seemed very comfortable with them and was very happy to see them. I really do appreciate the pictures and updates from the walks. We are very fortunate that Lauren and Wynn are there for Sutton and we truly appreciate the care they give her. ❤️🐾”

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.
“They did a wonderful job with our Tessie. Would of loved to seen more photos, but I was also very aware of the weather back home and you can only do so many, dog resting in a bed because it's raining or overly hot outside. They didnt describe anything that would of been out of the norm for our dog or outside typical dog behavior. I'm glad my dog didn't do something out of the norm that would have caused damage to there home. Like a family watching your child. You don't want to hear the child got out of control and destroy a priceless possession you can't replace. Very respectful family with loving and caring kids. Would easily recommend them for watch your pet.”
“Amazing family who took the best care of our 1.5yo dog! Felt so good about leaving our girl in their hands (and paws!) :) our Luna loved playing with sweet Murphy!”
“Paula and Thom are the best. My wary Lucy took to them immediately. She knows good dog-people. They made sure Lucy would keep to her regular schedule and made her comfortable in their house. I never had a anxious moment on my trip because I knew Lucy was in good hands. I will definitely book Paula again.”
