“Jodi was great, she sent me updates on how Gino was doing, as well as pictures….especially loved the one of him smiling with his new friend:) Would definitely recommend her services to anyone. Thanks again Jodi! Sandy H.”

“Shannon was absolutely AMAZING! I was so nervous because it was the first time I left my 10 month old Golden Retriever and she took great care of her. I got daily updates with pictures and she responded to me right away. When I picked up my dog she was excited to see me but didn’t even want to leave! Shannon will absolutely be my go-to person in the future!”

“Justen was great with my dog Honey! She is a little nervous around other dogs after previously getting attacked and he made sure she felt comfortable and safe! I would definitely let him watch her again!”

“Elizabeth did a wonderful job taking care of Sofie. She even got Sofie to go on a walk, which she usually will do only with me! Elizabeth sent frequent photos as this was Sofie's first time staying with her and her boys. The whole family was very loving and caring towards Sofie.”

“Lauren took great care of Zuri! She has a great space for dogs, handled medications/other needs well, was flexible with a last-minute booking, and sent frequent updates and pictures. We will definitely be back in the future!”

He hit it off with Boomer and the two played all day and night. By time we got Rufus home, he was a happy, tired boy! :) We already have Karen scheduled for our next outing. Highly recommend!”

“Our dogs love their ‘vacations’ with Bill, Mary, and Ashley. They are well cared for; it’s obvious this family loves dogs! They have a huge fenced in area for outdoor time, and send photos while you’re away. Highly recommend!”


“Princess felt right at home when she stayed with Tamisha. I received multiple photos everyday. I loved seeing how happy and spoiled she was! She was getting treats and going on lots of walks. I was also relieved that all the dogs were getting along. I am definitely going to rebook. Princess needs to see her best friends again lol.”

“My 2 fur babies got so much love while I was away! I couldn't have asked for a better experience, especially with this being my first time away from them. Thank you SO much! 🩷”

“Our Goldendoodle Posey is a “spicy girl” and we couldn’t just leave her with anyone. Karla was our trainer at Take The Lead Dog Training and we were so impressed with her skills at helping to train our strong willed and somewhat naughty girl. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not worry about Posey because I knew she was in good hands. Posey got the chance to get some socialization with other dogs which she needed. I will definitely use Karla again.”

About: I provide gentle, attentive care for cats with a focus on comfort and routine. I handle litter box cleaning, administer medications when needed, and take care to follow each cat’s normal habits. I pay close attention to behavior changes and early warning signs so any concerns are caught quickly. My goal is to make every cat feel safe, calm, and cared for while you are away.

“This was my first time ever using a petsitter. I was worried that with Lily needing a pill crushed up and added to her food that it was going to be hard to find someone. Chloe was amazing. I gave her all the instructions, showed her where everything was and she showed up on time for each meal. We take weekend trips here and there and I'm hoping this will be the start of a great connection for Lily and Mistletoe.”


“Isabella is an amazing cat sitter and we’re so glad we found her on Rover! She’s incredibly attentive to our cats’ routines and needs, and we felt completely at ease while we were away. Her communication is top-notch—she sent us daily updates and photos, which really helped us relax knowing our pets were happy and well cared for. She’s also super flexible and easy to coordinate with, which made the whole process stress-free. We’ll definitely be booking with Isabella again—highly recommend!”


“Mackenzie was AMAZING! She was on time, respectful, and very communicative! She went above and beyond when taking care of my animals and I highly recommend her! I hope to be using her services again! Thanks Mackenzie!”


“Bethani is such a treasure! She bonded so well with our Bean and is such a reliable professional when it comes to his care when we are gone. She is very detailed in her reports, too. It means so much to have her help when we can’t be home! Thank you, Bethani!”

“Samantha did a great job checking in on our cat, Louie. On a previous vacation, he came to a cat with a UTI because the person we hired (not through Rover.com) did not clean his box properly. Samantha kept us up to date on how Louie was doing and kept his boxes clean. We came home from vacation to a happy and healthy cat. I will definitely use Samantha again!”

About: I am well versed in many areas with animals. I have taken care of many pets throughout my life. This includes dogs, cats, livestock and even a raccoon. I currently work 3 12 hour shifts and have plenty of free time to care and walk your pet. My husband works independently so he has a lot of free time as well. I care for your pet the same I would want someone to care for mine if I were away. Providing lots of love, attention and play for all pets.

“Thelma is a nervous dog, Ashliegh did a great job letting Thelma get comfortable with her during the meet and greet. Judging by the photos, Thelma felt quite at ease during the drop in!”

About: I’ve had animals in my life from the beginning. Right now I have 2 dogs, a cat, 2 Guinea pigs, and a fish :) I love caring for them and want to get back into walking, so this is perfect! I stay overnight to dog sit, so I have tons of experience! I’m a college student working part-time, so i would like to spend as much time as possible with your pets! As long as you let me know what’s up, I’d be happy to be of service :) I have a fenced in yard on a not-busy street, so the dogs can play (and even bark) freely as they please. I just want them to have fun!
“This particular visit was a meet and greet for a last minute house sitting. Her and her boyfriend were very professional, respectful and attentive to the needs my dogs have. My dogs seemed very excited to meet the both of them.”

“The care that Jodi and her husband provided for Josie was AMAZING. My girl came back smiling and happy. Jodi was so kind and laid back. I KNEW that she was in good hands. Josie LOVED them. Thank you guys for giving me a peace of mind and watching my pup. I will DEFINITELY rebook. They were ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. Jam & Josie”


“Ashleigh and family took care of our 12 week old Cairn Terrier puppy while we took a day trip to visit family out of town. She seemed instantly at ease with him, her daughters were obviously very good with dogs and we had little doubt our pup would enjoy his "camp" experience. He did and even made friends with their pug. We had been looking for a sitter during the week and gladly would go with Ashleigh if it was easier on the commute. Zero concerns and I highly recommend trying them out.”

“Ginny always has a great time at Sean’s house. He’s very attentive and has plenty of very good dog friends for Ginny to hang out with. Nice big yard for her to run around in when the weather is nice. Well definitely book with Sean again.”

“Very last minute had availability for us and overall great experience! Great and fast communication and updates with pictures. Will definitely book again ❤️”

“This was my first time leaving my pup Reuben with a sitter and Zoe was just the sweetest! She made me feel so comfortable leaving Reuben with her! He seemed like he had a nice, relaxing day when I picked him up which was awesome because sometimes he can be a bit nervous!”

“Karla is hands-down the best dog sitter I’ve ever experienced. Her love for dogs is immediately clear in everything she does. She has a spacious backyard that gives the dogs plenty of room to run and play, and her home is always clean, well-kept, and welcoming. What I appreciate most is how she allows dogs be themselves while ensuring a safe, well-managed environment. She pays close attention to group dynamics, making sure all the dogs interact well and play safely. I felt completely at ease leaving Bruno in her care, and that peace of mind is priceless. I would book with Karla again and again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”

About: I have always had a love and passion for caring for small dogs. Over the past three years, I have gained personal experience caring for my own pet, learning the importance of patience, consistency, love, and attention in helping a dog feel safe and happy. Throughout the years, I have also helped care for family and friends’ pets, which has allowed me to build trust with different dogs and understand their unique needs and personalities. One of my favorite parts of caring for dogs is watching them grow into their own little personalities. Every dog is different, and I enjoy learning what makes each one feel loved, comfortable, and excited. I especially love small dogs because of their sweet, playful, and affectionate nature. Whether it’s cuddling, going on walks, playing, or simply spending quality time with them, I truly enjoy making sure dogs feel cared for, loved, and supported. My goal is always to provide a safe, gentle, and fun environment where pets feel like family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine because I have been caring for my own small dog for the last three years. Each day, I make time for feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure my dog feels loved, safe, and comfortable. I enjoy building that routine because dogs thrive on consistency, attention, and care. Throughout the week, I also make space for longer walks, extra playtime, grooming needs, and quality bonding time. Since I have helped watch family and friends’ pets over the years, I understand how important it is to keep pets on a routine that feels familiar to them. Pet care fits naturally into my life because I truly enjoy being around dogs, learning their personalities, and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I currently work full time from home 4 days a week and have plenty of time to help others care for their fur babies. I care for pets with patience, attention, and love when they are in my home. My goal is always to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their routine as normal as possible. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and welcoming environment where pets can relax, play, cuddle, and feel like part of the family. I make sure they have fresh water, proper feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. Since I have a passion for small dogs, I really enjoy creating a space where they can feel comfortable and loved. Whether I am cuddling with them, taking them on walks, playing with them, or simply keeping them company, I care for every pet as if they were my own.
“We love Angie and her family! They welcome our furbaby Odin into there, like one of their own. We are blessed to have found them to care for Odin, while we are away or at work!”

About: Hi, I’m Ariel—a lifelong Ohio resident, entrepreneur, and proud dog mom of 10+ years. I work primarily from home, which allows me to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day for dogs staying in my home or while caring for pets in their own home. Our home is shared with my sweet daughter and two friendly miniature dachshunds, creating a calm, family-oriented environment where many dogs quickly feel comfortable. Whether your pup is staying for doggy daycare, overnight boarding, or you’re looking for someone to care for your pets while staying in your home, I strive to make their experience as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. I know how difficult it can be to leave a beloved pet behind. That’s why I care for every dog as if they were part of my own family—with patience, affection, playtime, and plenty of updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pup! Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I run my own business from home, so I’m able to build dog walks and visits into my day while still keeping a consistent schedule. It’s something I genuinely enjoy because it gets me outside and allows me to spend time caring for dogs throughout the week. I care for every pet with patience and attention to their individual needs. In my home, dogs have access to a fully fenced yard where they can safely enjoy fresh air and playtime. I also live on a quiet street, which makes walks calm and relaxed. I always follow the routines and preferences owners share with me, whether that’s feeding schedules, exercise needs, or specific instructions for their pet’s comfort. My goal is to make sure each dog feels safe, cared for, and as comfortable as possible while their owner is away.
About: I have had animals my entire life so there is never a time where I wasn't around one. I also trust them more than people so therefore, they trust me more than most as well. I am a stay at home mom with 2 under 2 so I am always home and most likely available but I will probably have my children when I do any services on this app. I have 4 cats and 4 dogs of all colors and a variety of personalities so I am used to chaos. I have a fenced yard, pools and toys everywhere for my dogs to run around. My cats have their own room with all the beds and scratching posts they desire. I feed them on a timed schedule but have full water bowls all around the house for them to drink at their leisure all day. I have furniture set up specifically so they can look out windows and there are no rules when it comes to where they can sleep.
“Will and Bibiana are the best. They have treated my puppy Nella like their own. They have helped Nella and I beyond what I could have hoped. Would recommend to anyone for the best care! Thank you guys so much for all the help!!”

“Alyssa was very responsive, sent lots of pictures/updates and Tucker is nice and tired after a full day of playing! Thank you for taking great care of our little guy!”

“Shannan is excellent at communist and was willing to work with me on drop off and pickup timing, which I really appreciated. Bonus points for having prior experience working at a doggie daycare. Really helped to facilitate a smooth transition for Serena. Best of all was the fact that Serena had a giant smile on her face when I came to pick her up! Thanks so much Shannan!!!”

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life and have always played a large part in taking care of them. With my love of pets I became a Veterinary Technician and I've worked in the Veterinary field for over 16 years. I've worked in general practice and emergency. Along with working in Vet Med I have always done petsitting. I have also taken care of rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets and a bearded dragon! I have also had foster dogs and kittens and helped with rescue work. I do work full time so my availability during the week can be limited, especially during the day. I am available any time satrudays, sundays, and wednesdays. And I am available Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays before 8am and after 6pm. I like to keep your pet's needs in mind. If they are a little more timid, then I will go slow and take the time for them to trust me. If they are active and ready to go, then we will have a fun time playing right off the bat. I will make sure I follow any directions or care instructions you leave for your pet. And I will always love and treat your pet like it is my own!

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for 15 years. I have also worked at a vet clinic on kennel stuff and have administrated medication for both cats and dogs. I am currently working part time, and I’m in the process of starting my own business at home so I will be home mostly all day. At home I have a fenced in backyard with lots of room to run. I have a car that I can take dogs to the park and walk as well as being able to get to clients houses. I take care of all animals as if they are my own.

“We are so thankful for Ashleigh! She is very patient with our dogs. Xena is slower to warm up to people and she just let Xena take her time to get comfortable with her.”

“Isabelle was fantastic! Took the job last second when original plans fell through and left me in a bind while being out of town. Isabelle provided photos and status updates for each walk. Being a 1st time Rover user, I was nervous, but Isabelle made me feel like my dog was completely taken care of and helped ease my mind. Would 100% recommend her and I will rebook with her in the future when needed. THANK YOU AND GREAT JOB ISABELLE!”

He hit it off with Boomer and the two played all day and night. By time we got Rufus home, he was a happy, tired boy! :) We already have Karen scheduled for our next outing. Highly recommend!”

“Our dogs love their ‘vacations’ with Bill, Mary, and Ashley. They are well cared for; it’s obvious this family loves dogs! They have a huge fenced in area for outdoor time, and send photos while you’re away. Highly recommend!”


“Princess felt right at home when she stayed with Tamisha. I received multiple photos everyday. I loved seeing how happy and spoiled she was! She was getting treats and going on lots of walks. I was also relieved that all the dogs were getting along. I am definitely going to rebook. Princess needs to see her best friends again lol.”

“My 2 fur babies got so much love while I was away! I couldn't have asked for a better experience, especially with this being my first time away from them. Thank you SO much! 🩷”

“Our Goldendoodle Posey is a “spicy girl” and we couldn’t just leave her with anyone. Karla was our trainer at Take The Lead Dog Training and we were so impressed with her skills at helping to train our strong willed and somewhat naughty girl. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not worry about Posey because I knew she was in good hands. Posey got the chance to get some socialization with other dogs which she needed. I will definitely use Karla again.”

“Jill and her family took excellent care of our baby! Great Danes can be a bit of a handful, but Jill took everything in stride and was super communicative about how she was doing. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Dawn was a godsend for us! We had to unexpectedly find arrangements for our dog so we could travel for a funeral, and Dawn responded immediately and was so kind, gracious, and accommodating with our short notice. She not only took care of our dog, but loved on him while we were away, and sent lots of photos and updates. We are so grateful to have found Dawn and Rob to take care of Shadow, and will definitely use them again!”


“Katie was wonderful with our dog, Luna! She took great care of her while we were out of the country and sent us updates and pics of Luna. She was quick to respond if I had a question. I would definitely trust her with Luna again.”
