“Nicole is an amazing dog sitter! My dog, Shadow, is a very shy girl who sometimes can take some time to warm up to new people. Nicole was extremely accommodating in making sure Shadow was comfortable with herself and her dogs and Shadow had a blast staying with Nicole!”
“Alexis was amazing with our girls. She kept us updated on how they were doing, sent photos and even groomed them. She also gave them homemade treats. They loved her too. We look forward to using her services again.”
“My girls loved staying with Daisy. They were happy and well cared for. Daisy sent me an update and a video every day. I’m happy to say they will be staying again for our next trip. Thanks so much!”
“Hatsuki’s care and compassion shines in everything she does. She had special doggy treats, daily walks, pics, and updates often. My pup is a nervous clinger and she made him feel safe and loved 🤎 will recommend her to anyone!”
“Very happy with Summer's stay. Claudia provided updates and lots of pictures. I could tell Summer had plenty of attention, cuddles, and play time. Summer's bag was packed and ready when we arrived to a happy dog.”
“This was the first time we boarded our Golden Doodle and got our boy back just as happy as we dropped him off. I loved where he stayed and really enjoyed Kristi. She did such a good job! I will book with her again.”
“Ashlee is a wonderful person. She seemed to bond with my dog, Buddy right away. At pick up, Buddy was happy and looked like he had a good time! I would definitely book with her again! 😄”
“Our pups were so excited to return to Ashleigh, Bill, & Tucker's home for their 2nd visit. We received great photos of the pups playing & having fun throughout our time away. We are thankful for the great care Ashleigh & Bill provided!”
“This was my very first time boarding my 11-year-old Shih Tzu, Biscuit. I originally booked only 2 nights with Kristi but ended up extending for another night because my plans were disrupted by traffic and an accident on the way back from Chicago to Ohio. Kristi is very accommodating, and I can honestly say that her whole family took excellent care of Biscuit. She constantly kept me updated with texts, photos, and videos of Biscuit, which made me feel very at ease. Thank you so much, Kristi! I will definitely contact you again to board Biscuit with you!”
“Amber was excellent and so flexible when life seemed to get in the way. I will definitely use her again for all future doggie watching needs. Lilo and Stitch napped the moment they came home.”
“I appreciated that they were focused on getting Piper to eat since I'd relayed that when she gets anxious (like while I'm away) she tends to not want to eat. They sent well-timed pictures that showed the dogs relaxed by themselves or with one of the family. The stay went well but it was a bit confusing with having both ladies message me answers to the same question.”
“I highly recommend Jessica! It was obvious she is a ‘dog whisperer’, gentle soul, who will make your dog feel like they are at home! She sent daily photos, videos, updates, gave my dog her monthly & quarterly medication, provided her a comfy crate to sleep in, and a kiddy pool filled with strawberries! And there’s 3 dog friends to bond with! My fur baby had a loving spa experience! Book with Jessica!”
“Emily was fantastic with our dogs! She was so organized, kept us updated on the boys, and her set up for them was phenomenal. It gave us such peace of mind that they were safe, well cared for, and happy. I did not have a single worry when they were with her and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Thanks Emily!”
“Angel did an awesome job with my Great Dane/mastiff, Jax. He’s a senior dog and gets anxious. After a week of boarding, a bath, and Angel giving him his ear drops- he really came back better than I dropped him off! Plus Angel was super flexible and very personable! Will book again!”

“Krista took fantastic care of my kitty, Girly, while I was away on vacation. She sent pictures every day, so that I could see Girly was happy and doing great. This is the second time she has taken care of Girly, and both times I was able to relax and enjoy my vacations knowing Girly was in very good hands. Thanks Krista!”
About: I have had dogs in my household my entire life, currently with 3 rescues of my own, that have been trained with cute tricks to make you laugh and melt your heart. I have been entrusted with friends and pet clients over the years to care for their pets while they are away from home and would like to offer the same to you. I have a large fenced in backyard with room to run and beds for lounging. I can administer medications (oral, topical, and injections), take for walks, and offer other special instructions as needed. I have provided specialty care with senior dogs. I’m currently working from home (WFH), so I am available for daycare from morning through early evening during the week, as well as potential boarding if coordinated. Weekend boarding/daycare arrangements can also be made. I have a fully fenced in backyard with three friendly pups of my own to offer play and companionship. If you choose to have your dog crated at times to match their home routine, I can accommodate that if needed.
“Jenna was EXCEPTIONAL!!! She took the best care of our cat, Lilly! Our kitty is very shy, but she came out for Jenna which made us so happy! We are booking her for the rest of our trips this year! We HIGHLY recommend Jenna for a pet sitter!”
About: Hi! I’m Emily, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets of all personalities, including shy, special needs, or high-maintenance cats. I provide a calm, safe, and cozy environment where your cat can feel relaxed and loved while you’re away. At my home, cats have plenty of space to explore, lounge, and play. I can provide feeding, litter care, enrichment, and lots of gentle attention. I understand that every cat is unique, so I tailor my care to their personality and needs. My schedule allows me to spend quality time with your furry friend, making sure they feel happy and secure while in my care.
“Michele was great watching our 2 large dogs for 2 days while we were out of town. She communicated the whole time with updates and photos. Gave great peace of mind!”
“Jayson did absolutely amazing with my 3 pups this week and they get excited to see him for their drop in visits! I’m glad they didn’t scare him away so he can keep doing drop in visits with them 🐶🐶🐶”
“Lisa did a great job! After meeting Lisa, I felt secure leaving our cat KC in good hands. Communication was excellent. She even made sure we made it home okay and all was good. I will be using Lisa's services again soon!”
About: Hi! I'm Christie! I grew up with dogs and cats and I love them both! I started training dogs for shows about 18 years ago and have completed an apprenticeship in dog training. I thoroughly enjoy any time I can get with any pets that I can! I'm currently working four days a week, but I am available Saturday, Sunday, and Tuesday. I'm hoping to go part time soon and expand my hours for pet care! I prefer to care for animals in their normal environment - if their person is gone, that's enough stress! I love spending time outside, especially with dogs or cats. Walks are my favorite!
About: I have over ten years of experience taking care of animals. I grew up always having a dog and outdoor cat since I am allergic to cats. I have experience with bigger dogs such as a Great Dane and small dogs such as a Morkie! I love dogs, but I also have experience taking care of chickens, ducks, and cows. Others types of animals I have experience with include puppies and older dogs. Currently I am a full-time teacher, but I will be working from home starting in June. I will be able to let the dogs out twice as much as needed starting then. I am loving, caring, and want the dogs to feel comfortable in my home and in your home when I am pet sitting for you.
About: I've cared for many pets during my life including exotics, cats, dogs, and birds in all age groups from babies to seniors. I will treat your fur babies like my own. I am currently retired with my husband. We eschool our twin boys during the day. I can pop out to do pet care and have a flexible schedule. We do travel a lot during school breaks and in the summer. I am eager to help out with home visits or walks. I enjoy all kinds of pets and don't shy away from those who need special care. Typically I visit dogs in their homes three times per day at whatever schedule works best for the pet and me. Some may need more or less visits and I can be flexible. I do not care for dogs or cats in my home. My two cats don't like other pets, unless it's a pet that lives in a small crate or cage, such as a guinea pig.
About: Hi, I’m Katelyn! A little about me - I’m a wife, mom of 3, and of course an avid animal lover which is what led me to Rover. I have experience with small to large breeds and from puppies to seniors. I live on two acres of land, however none of it is fenced in so pets that are in my care will be leashed during any and all outdoor time. My home is very clean and well kept! My schedule is open and flexible. I am reliable, experienced, and pay close attention to detail. So please, feel free to give me any and all details that I will need to make sure that your fur baby is happy, accommodated, and comfortable. Pets in my care mostly have free range of the house when they are with me. Crated only if I need to leave. Potty breaks are given as often as they’re needed. I will watch for their ques and also take them out often. I send daily updates with pictures/videos so that pet parents are always informed on how their pets are doing during their time with me. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me.
“Libby is wonderful. Would’ve liked a few more pictures but Katt was cared for and that is what is important. It relieves a lot of stress knowing someone is there to watch our cat when we aren’t home.”
“Tim is not only friendly and easy to work with, he’s very knowledgeable of dog behavior, needs, and training. My dog, Zoe, instantly took to him. During his pop in visits, Tim makes sure that she gets a little exercise in along with her potty break.”

“Nicole was wonderful taking care of my greyhound, Buttercup. There was excellent communication before and during the visit and as someone like myself that hasn’t taken a dog for daycare, I was so happy how easy it was with your service. My dog loved Nicole and I would highly recommend her.”
About: If there’s one thing I know, it’s pets. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, and helped friends foster possums and raccoons growing up. I currently have a 16 year old cattle dog lab mix, an 8 year old boston terrier, and a 3 year old bobtail cat. Raising a senior dog has taught me many things including oral med administration for animals, as well as how to handle general health ailments and emergencies that naturally come as dogs age. I work from home and have a fenced in yard. My animals have free rein of the home, and furniture. Working from home allows me to cater to any dogs schedule. The front half of my yard has a puppy picket fence so that small dogs can not get out, the back yard has a normal picket, but is six feet so that bigger dogs can roam comfortably without being able to easily jump over it. I am able to cater to dogs that need to be crated as well as animals that roam. I’ve used rover as a pet parent for years, so I understand what it can be like to leave your pet with someone new. I’ll make it a point to send you updates at least once a day detailing how they are doing, and send videos and pictures.
“The best sitter! I highly recommend Kristol for doggy day care. My shy, little puppy was right at home at Kristol's. I received pictures throughout the day of my sweet pup playing and relaxing. She even helped my girl with her potty training. Trusting someone else with your furbaby can be so stressful! But I completely trust Kristol, and cannot say enough good things!”

About: I’ve been in love with pets since I can remember. I used to have pets most of my life and really enjoy their company. I have experience on how to train them to potty I’m currently a Stay at home mom, and work from home which allows me to spend plenty of time with your pets. I’m available Mondays through Friday from 6:00 am to 5:00 pm. As well if you want your fur friend to spend the night with us I have a big backyard and big yard area for walks and play. I can also provide comfortable bed for your pet, as well as toys and pads if they need to go potty inside.
“Angel is very good with dogs, caring and empathetic to their needs. She was also friendly and helpful to us personally as out-of-towners. Hers is more of a boarding situation with a separate building and individual kennels with several dogs present. This was intimidating for both of our smaller dogs, especially our rescue, but they calmed after a bit. Angel did put them in a back kennel away from the other dogs which helped.”
About: I have spent a lifetime caring for my own pets as well as rescuing animals. I think pets are an extremely important part of my livelihood and good mental health so I understand that your pet is an integral part of your family as well. I also understand that I am a guest in your pets home and will treat your home with the utmost respect and privacy. I am a mom, a wife and an Air Force veteran and I understand that schedules change due to work, family needs, and sickness. Being a stay at home mom with school age children allows me to be flexible and reliable. I also received my OH-EMT Intermediate medic training at WPAFB while serving in the military. I am very comfortable administering medications and any treatments. As of 2023 I also obtained my Instructor Animal CPR and First Aide Instructor Certification. I am a full time pet care specialist/trainer. I specialize with dogs that have anxiety disorders that can show themselves as aggressive behaviors which I believe are actually unmet needs. Starting April 4, 2024 we begin construction on a fenced in yard so we can provide day training/daycare while you are at work and boarding!
About: Hi, I’m Amanda. I’m the owner of Unleashed Peaks, a full-time dog training and behavior coaching business built on calm communication, structure, and trust. Along with training, I also offer structured boarding and daycare in a peaceful, home-style environment where dogs can relax, play, and learn safely. Because I’m a trainer first, everything I do — from playgroups to potty breaks — is intentional. Dogs get enrichment, exercise, and clear routines that build confidence while keeping things fun and low-stress. I follow LIMA (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) principles to make sure every dog feels safe, understood, and respected. I love working with all types of dogs, especially those who need a little extra support or structure while you’re away. Whether your pup is here for the day or a full board and train, they’ll be treated like family. Quirks, goofiness, and all. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy, relaxed, and well-adjusted dog who’s had a fulfilling stay and maybe learned a few new skills along the way. I’m home full-time and spend most of my day working with dogs through my business, Unleashed Peaks. Because training and structured care are what I do every day, your dog is never left unattended for long and always part of a calm, consistent routine. Drop-offs and pick-ups are flexible - mornings and early afternoons usually work best, but I’m happy to coordinate around your schedule. Whether your pup is here for daycare or boarding, they’ll get a balance of play, enrichment, rest, and individualized attention throughout the day. Dogs in my care stay in a calm, structured, and enrichment-based environment that helps them feel secure and relaxed. My home is designed with safety in mind, with separate rest areas, and consistent supervision. We have 5 acres of land. Our fence is in progress right now but we have never had an issue! As a full-time trainer, I understand canine body language and group dynamics deeply. I make sure each dog’s play, rest, and social time match their comfort level. New dogs are introduced slowly and respectfully so they can settle in at their own pace. I keep routines predictable and communication clear so dogs always know what to expect. Whether they are here for a day or an extended stay, every dog is treated like family: safe, understood, and cared for.

About: I have pet sat and cared for dogs (and cats) since the age of 10. I am mostly experienced with larger dogs, so smaller animals won't be any issue. I’m a college student and am sticking around the area before christmas- my schedule will be wide open to care for pets as often as needed.

About: I've taken care of dogs and house sat for many families since I was 14. I have taken courses to become a certified vet tech but I had a baby and life changed. I have worked in a vets office as a receptionist as well. We did much more than answering phones and making appointments. I would try and spend as much time as I could with the dogs we boarded there. I know how to cut and buffer nails and I love to bathe dogs! I can't cut I don't trust myself with a pair of sisssors! I can administer vaccinations and give medication oraly without harming the dog. I am a stay at home mom. I have a 1 year old and I am expecting in December for my 2nd. I also have 2 great dane puppies who are sisters! I trained them to do the basic commands and it took them less then 2 weeks to get potty training down. Taking care of them is work in itself on top of a 1 year old and being 7 months pregnant! I am very patient and understanding with dogs and their owners. I am willing to work with whatever daily routine the owner wants me to work with.
“Katherine was a lifesaver! Our flight got cancelled and we weren’t going to be able to pick up our dogs from the kennel on time because of that. Katherine was able to pick up our dogs for us, on the same day and with only a few hours’ notice, and dog sit them at her house until we made it back home. We are so thankful for her and how she helped our four-legged family!”

Currently I am unemployed- So this leaves me plenty of time to give quality care to your furry friend. I have dependable transportation to be there for your pet. With more weary pets I tend to just be there to fulfill their needs and be present in the house. However with pets that are friendly with strangers, I'm more than happy to give them all of the attention they want!
About: I have about 10 years of caring for pets, from cats, dogs and even rodents! I also have experience in giving vaccines and pills to animals. I have fostered and rescued animals over the years, I know how to care for new born puppies/kittens. I am currently working part time and doing online school part time. I have plenty of time to help with your pets, whether it’s walking or staying over night with them! My husband and I have 1 dog and 3 cats, my parents live with us, they have a dog and a cat. Everyone gets along great.
About: I’ve owned dogs since i was 7 and I was often involved in the care for and walking of them. I always enjoy taking long walks with my dogs and love meeting new dogs! I don’t have any other jobs at the moment so my schedule is pretty open. Weekends are typically busy but I can fit in a couple dog walks in between if needed! I take my dogs out for walks, let them out to go potty, feed them, give them treats, play with them, and of course give them plenty of cuddles :)
About: I've cared for many pets during my life including exotics, cats, dogs, and birds in all age groups from babies to seniors. I will treat your fur babies like my own. I am currently retired with my husband. We eschool our twin boys during the day. I can pop out to do pet care and have a flexible schedule. We do travel a lot during school breaks and in the summer. I am eager to help out with home visits or walks. I enjoy all kinds of pets and don't shy away from those who need special care. Typically I visit dogs in their homes three times per day at whatever schedule works best for the pet and me. Some may need more or less visits and I can be flexible. I do not care for dogs or cats in my home. My two cats don't like other pets, unless it's a pet that lives in a small crate or cage, such as a guinea pig.
About: I've never not known having a pet! My parents got my first dog 2 days after I was born, and just like in The Secret Life of Pets, we were inseparable! Since then, I have owned several types of species of animals, and ever since I became a dad, my love for animals has grown. All of our friends joke that we run a zoo at our house, but I absolutely love watching the bond between my kids and our pets. We currently have 2 dogs, 2 red-eared sliders, and a hamster. I have experience caring for puppies/kittens, elderly dogs/cats, pregnant dogs/cats, aggressive animals, and animals who need medication administered. I can't wait to love your pet(s) as my own! I'm currently a real estate agent / stay-at-home dad with a very flexible schedule and multiple available sitters with a short notice. Don't be afraid to book last minute! We absolutely believe in the safety for our pets as well as others' pets. My wife and I have been on both ends of the spectrum of having a very obedient, friendly dog, as well as being the owner of a dog that is triggered by unfamiliar faces in human and non-human form! No matter the needs, I will work to achieve them!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 5+ years. Friends and family have relied on me to feed, take out the dogs, play, bathe their pets. I am going into my 2nd year of teaching and as we are on summer break, I will have more availability/flexibility. I will also have all the time in my hands to spend it with your furry friends! I provide feeding your pets, spending quality time with your fur babies. As well as being companion to your pets. Gentle care and true service.
About: I have 16 years of experience with many types of dogs. I have owned 6 dogs in my life, which 4 were trained and taken care of by me. I worked as a dog sitter, trainer and groomer at the K9 Co and Paw Perfections. I am very active and big into fitness so I offer your dog real exercise and a great play time. I am very patient and caring with animals. I work at the hospital. I am a medical lab technician, so 5 out of the 7 days of the week im on day shift 7am to 4pm. (I will try to keep schedule up to date with work schedule. I am a traveling medical lab scientist. I will be available mostly any day my schedule is open. Please ask even if the day is marked unavailable. Sometimes i may have opening after work. In the simplest way i can word this, I treat pets like they are my own, like family. I take extra consideration to temperament, age, diet, and emotions of the pet. Our furry friends will show you signs for the trained eye, and sometimes right out tell you their needs.

“Nicole is an amazing dog sitter! My dog, Shadow, is a very shy girl who sometimes can take some time to warm up to new people. Nicole was extremely accommodating in making sure Shadow was comfortable with herself and her dogs and Shadow had a blast staying with Nicole!”
“Alexis was amazing with our girls. She kept us updated on how they were doing, sent photos and even groomed them. She also gave them homemade treats. They loved her too. We look forward to using her services again.”
“My girls loved staying with Daisy. They were happy and well cared for. Daisy sent me an update and a video every day. I’m happy to say they will be staying again for our next trip. Thanks so much!”
“This was the first time we boarded our Golden Doodle and got our boy back just as happy as we dropped him off. I loved where he stayed and really enjoyed Kristi. She did such a good job! I will book with her again.”
“Ashlee is a wonderful person. She seemed to bond with my dog, Buddy right away. At pick up, Buddy was happy and looked like he had a good time! I would definitely book with her again! 😄”
“Our pups were so excited to return to Ashleigh, Bill, & Tucker's home for their 2nd visit. We received great photos of the pups playing & having fun throughout our time away. We are thankful for the great care Ashleigh & Bill provided!”
“This was my very first time boarding my 11-year-old Shih Tzu, Biscuit. I originally booked only 2 nights with Kristi but ended up extending for another night because my plans were disrupted by traffic and an accident on the way back from Chicago to Ohio. Kristi is very accommodating, and I can honestly say that her whole family took excellent care of Biscuit. She constantly kept me updated with texts, photos, and videos of Biscuit, which made me feel very at ease. Thank you so much, Kristi! I will definitely contact you again to board Biscuit with you!”
“Amber was excellent and so flexible when life seemed to get in the way. I will definitely use her again for all future doggie watching needs. Lilo and Stitch napped the moment they came home.”
“I appreciated that they were focused on getting Piper to eat since I'd relayed that when she gets anxious (like while I'm away) she tends to not want to eat. They sent well-timed pictures that showed the dogs relaxed by themselves or with one of the family. The stay went well but it was a bit confusing with having both ladies message me answers to the same question.”
“I highly recommend Jessica! It was obvious she is a ‘dog whisperer’, gentle soul, who will make your dog feel like they are at home! She sent daily photos, videos, updates, gave my dog her monthly & quarterly medication, provided her a comfy crate to sleep in, and a kiddy pool filled with strawberries! And there’s 3 dog friends to bond with! My fur baby had a loving spa experience! Book with Jessica!”
“Emily was fantastic with our dogs! She was so organized, kept us updated on the boys, and her set up for them was phenomenal. It gave us such peace of mind that they were safe, well cared for, and happy. I did not have a single worry when they were with her and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Thanks Emily!”
“Angel did an awesome job with my Great Dane/mastiff, Jax. He’s a senior dog and gets anxious. After a week of boarding, a bath, and Angel giving him his ear drops- he really came back better than I dropped him off! Plus Angel was super flexible and very personable! Will book again!”
“Kristol was very sweet and accommodating! Had a great backyard for Kobe to run around in and an equally energetic pint sized friend for him to play with! I received photos and updates regularly. Thank you so much for caring for my little guy over the weekend!”
“Christine and family took great care of Ginger. We received many pictures and updates of the shenanigans our pup was getting into. They took everything in stride and were very accommodating to Gingers needs. I will be reaching out to Christine for any future boarding needs”
