We will absolutely use her services again I highly recommend her!”

If in this area again, we’d definitely board Novak with Patricia!”

“We asked Amber to take care of our cats while we were out of town. Amber communicated effectively and was easy to speak to. She came over and went over our pets’ needs and answered all my questions. I’ve never used Rover before and I felt at ease with her. She was prompt in coming to the house and doing her best to take pictures if possible (they like to hide). We didn’t worry about them at all while we were gone. I am very happy with how everything went and I will be booking with her again in the future!”
“Callie was great with communication and solved a problem with a food mixup to make sure our dogs were taken care of. She is definitely someone I recommend for drop in support. Thanks Callie!”
About: I’ve loved taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve helped care for dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors, including walking, feeding, playing with, and bathing them. I’m dependable, patient, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities and always want them to feel safe and loved! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I’m usually available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m especially available in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s routine! I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, fed, exercised, and getting plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their normal routine and any specific instructions they leave me. I’m happy to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well.
“Jenna did a wonderful job caring for our 5 animals! Jenna came twice to meet each animal and go through the process of caring before final booking. She provided updates and photos throughout the sitting sessions and we came back to happy tails! Thank you Jenna 😊”
“Peanut was a life saver. We have just had the most chaotic and stressful move ever. He took care of our gems for a month instead of the original week. We were so grateful to not have to keep moving them around. Flash has separation anxiety and Gremlin lost his only known "mom" cat in Nov.”
“I D K if my other reviews showed up as my phone is not right!! I can’t see them. Courtney V is fantastic, has a sweet personality, is confident and exceeded my expectations!!! I will recommend her to all who need her ❤️💜”
About: I rescued my first cat 5 years ago. He quickly became family and we loved every minute of our time with him. As he was a rescue, he came with unexpected medical issues and we had to say goodbye to him last year. Now I spend my time helping the stray cats in my neighborhood and assisting other pet owners here on Rover give care to their pets.
“As with the last time we booked Laci, she was fantastic! She sent pictures every day with a message. We have a senior kitty and she is really the only person I trust to care for him while we're out of town.”
“I liked Chloe the minute I met her. She came over for a pre visit to meet my cats and learn about their routine. Ava and Tucker warmed up to her right away and I knew they would be in good hands. Chloe arrived on schedule for four mornings and five evenings to feed, play with and attend the litter box. When I arrived home from my trip, the house was in order, and everything looked as I left it. I’ll definitely request Chloe again. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”
“Karla did a wonderful job with Rudy. He has special needs and she was very conscientious of getting the steps to his feeding and meds correct. Rudy enjoys spending time with Karla!”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own that I have trained myself. I have looked after friend’s animals numerous times. I have walked, fed, bathed, cut nails, and groomed dogs before. I can work my schedule around what is needed and am willing. I don't normally have things scheduled after work other than taking my pups for a walk. I will treat your animals as if they are my own. I know what it feels like to have to leave your animal behind when you go somewhere and I want to ensure you that they will be in great hands! My pups are my world, so I do know how important it is to have someone you can trust.
About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and have experience working with cats in animal shelters. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all ages, from energetic kittens to senior cats, and can administer medications when needed. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level, and I take the time to earn their trust while maintaining their routine. You can expect attentive care, photo updates, and a calm, reliable presence to help your cat feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“We are so lucky to have Rachelle. She’s incredibly dedicated and really takes the time to focus on our crazy puppy. She makes sure he gets all his play time and potty breaks, and works on his training also. She always keeps us in the loop, makes sure we are on the same page with routine/training and sends updates everyday. We would 100% recommend!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - West Elkton
About: I’ve cared for animals for many years and have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable providing everything from walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention to bathing, brushing, and basic grooming when needed. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping reinforce potty training, routines, and good habits. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet loves being active and playing, going on walks, or simply cuddling and relaxing, I’m happy to adjust their care to what makes them happiest. I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own pets. I’m available as needed for any pet sitting. If you have a specific schedule that is needed, I’m more than willing to abide by it. I currently have dogs in my own home and have had a cat. I have picked up some of my clients animals from their home to watch them at my house, as well as going to their house and caring for them in the comfort of their own home. I love going on walks and cuddling with all pets.
“Karin Was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Yoshi and made sure he felt safe loved and comfortable and kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind I could tell Yoshi was in great hands and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Karin again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter! 🐾🐶”
“Pam has been such a blessing for our family! She is highly responsive and we never worry one second while they are in her care! Our dogs ears perk up when we say “Do you want to go see Ms. Pam?” Having her in our community is a real asset!”
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.
About: Hi, I’m Courtney! Your dog’s new dependable best friend. With 15 years of experience working with animals, I bring a calm, confident, and caring approach to every visit. I’m comfortable with all breeds, all sizes, and all personalities — from shy seniors to energetic puppies. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have dogs and guinea pigs at home, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and understood while keeping you updated every step of the way. Pet care is naturally built into my weekly routine. I plan my schedule around my drop-ins and walks to make sure every pet gets consistent, on-time care. I check in throughout the day, send updates, and make sure each visit has my full attention. On my days off, I’m even more flexible and can offer extra visit times. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine, make sure their needs are met, keep their space clean, and give them plenty of attention. I provide calm, consistent care and always send updates each visit.
“My Cavapoo Tino enjoyed daycare with Beka and Ryan. Beka quickly responded to my request to book. And when I messaged her during the day, Beka was also quick to respond. . Beka sent me a photo. Drop off and pick up were easy. Tino was happy when we picked him up. There were no sign of stress. We would use Beka and Ryan again.”
About: My husband & I and our 7 children live in a home in north Centerville. We have a large backyard that is fully enclosed with a 6’ wood privacy fence. We have a great neighborhood for walks and socialization and we also have several, more secluded walking trails nearby for a tranquil relaxed stroll. Our children range from ages 3-14 and have all been around dogs since birth and are excellent caretakers as well. We have 2 family pets, a 6 year old female Lhasa Apso and a 4 year old male Shih tzu. Neither uses a crate and we don’t require any crating. Our goal is to make sure your dog enjoys their stay away from home and is as comfortable as possible. We can maintain any schedules you have established and will make sure your dog gets extra love during your time apart. Regardless if your dog has energy for days or is older and prefers to snooze on a comfy blanket - our home can accommodate both types of dog. I am a stay-at-home mom so I am almost always home and I have the flexibility to accommodate various schedules and routines. With a large household it’s extremely rare that everyone is gone at the same time. Also, my mom lives next door and is retired so she’s able to stop by as well. Once your pets stay begins, we attach a custom ID tag to their collar that includes our contact information as an added safety measure. We have a fenced yard and 2 guaranteed companions for your pet to enjoy during their stay with us. Plus there’s always someone around to give them some extra love while you’re apart. We can easily crate your pet if preferred, as well. We’re happy to accommodate specific requests to ensure that your pets have the best care and experience possible.

About: My family loves animals and we would love to take in your pet for the day! We have a dog park and love to go on walks during the evening. Cats are also welcome as we love to snuggle them ❤️. Your pets will be safe and loved in our care and I am able to communicate with you over phone as much as you need during their stay.

Right now I have all the free time in the world to take care of your pets when needed ❤️ Pets will be able to run and play in our home. Feeding will depend on how often you need me to feed. Potty breaks often. Dog park on days with nice weather or walks through the trails in our neighborhood!
“Catherine and Adam were a pleasure to meet and to trust with our dear Nala. Drop-off was easy and dog-wise, both for making Nala feel at home and for meeting new friends (canine, feline and human). The pix throughout the day helped me feel connected and assured. Will definitely trust them again with Nala care needs.💞💞💞”
About: I’ve grown up on farms with many animals to include dogs and have raised them since I was young. Can’t wait to introduce myself to your fur baby’s and give them the love that they show us every day 😄 I’m currently in between jobs so my hours are flexible for your needs, always up for the exercise for a run or walk with your animals 😁 Currently only have a cat in a studio apartment so no space for a dog. My dog is back home in Ohio with my parents as I have no space here for him right now.
“Amanda, thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Winston! He's having the best time with you, and it's great to see him interacting with other dogs for the first time. I appreciate the love, care, and attention you're giving him. The pictures you send throughout the day are the best - they always put a smile on my face! Winston comes home happy, tired, and ready for a well-deserved rest. Thanks again for all that you do!”

About: Hi there! My name is Corinne, and I have taken care of a wide variety animals since I was a child.

I also understand that some might need extra love and care, so I’m more than happy to let them follow me throughout the home. To ensure their safety, we keep a tidy home, with food put away in secure locations. They will be kept on their leashes in the event that we need to leave the house.

Everyone deserves to feel like they can leave their pet with a safe person who will love on their dog. I’m a very active person and take walks daily. My schedule is very flexible which makes it easy to be able to come home during the day and take dogs for walks or just be around at home to hang out. I care for them very much.

But I’m willing to work weekdays into my schedule it all depends on the timing for full transparency. I always make sure the dogs have the love and attention they would get from their parents. I always talk to the parents to get a good feel about the type of energy their dog enjoys. Individual care will depends on the dog (or cat) itself.

I represent these animals on behalf of them and thier owners since they can't speak for themselves.

About: I’ve taken care of my own menagerie of pets since I was a girl ranging from reptiles, rodents, small parrots, cats and dogs. Through college I volunteered on a horse farm where I cleaned and helped take care of 10 horses, also worked at a local pet store for 10 years as a floor manager and excelled in animal husbandry. In addition I worked part time as a veterinary assistant. I’m a dedicated, responsible, hardworking Momma of two wanting to share my passion for animals with others. I keep a variety of animals, book me for your reptile/small animal/aviary needs by selecting “cat” and let’s chat about what you need done while your away. I am currently home throughout the week and have a fairly open availability depending on your specific needs. Reach out and let’s chat. If I can’t help you I will let you know. I am responsible for 3 tortoises, 8 snakes, a few rats, a handful of leopard geckos, freshwater fish tanks, chameleons, dogs, a cat and let’s not forget my two babies. Keeping pets is my hobby and I’m passing this along to my young ones. Gone all day and have a new puppy that needs more attention. I’ve been there and can offer walks with BASIC obedience. My dogs have all received their good citizen award from attending training classes. Let’s chat!
About: I absolutely adore animals and have never lived a life without them. I adopted my very own sweet dog Sage at 18 (as soon as I was old enough) and she has been the light of my life. She has taught me a lot of patience and responsibility at a young age. She is definitely a wild girl but I wouldn’t trade her for the world! Since I have a dog I am pretty used to all of the craziness that comes with them like leash pulling, weird eating habits, mess, and of course slobber! I currently nanny from 9:00-5:00 Tuesday through Thursday so I am try to find something to fill that Friday-Monday gap! As I spend those days walking and caring for my own pup I figured I might as well look to see if I can help others! I am a very alert person when it comes to my dog as she is very shy and scared around certain things so I would have course be the same with anyone else’s dog! I would never want to put someone else’s baby in harms way so I am very cautious.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs my entire life! I started "professionally" dog-sitting at 16, and have since had experience with everything from puppies to seniors of all personalities. I am comfortable and familiar with reactive dogs and don't mind anyone who needs a little extra care! I can't set specific availability hours on my calendar, so I instead have them listed below! I'm somewhat flexible, especially Fri-Sun, so please feel free to reach out with any questions :) MONDAY - THURSDAY Available for one mid-day visit (11am-1pm) Available for two afternoon visits (4pm-10pm) FRIDAY - SUNDAY Available for morning, mid-day, and afternoon visits! (6am-10pm) I'm working FOR your pet, so don't be afraid to make specific requests. I don't mind if your dog needs to be sung nursery rhymes while he eats his dinner - just let me know!
About: I’ve cared for many types of animals of different shapes and sizes in various animal shelter, grooming, and veterinary settings. From pets, to livestock, and exotic reptiles. I’m currently a veterinary technician student as well. Your Companion deserves Time, Love, and Care and my purpose in life is to provide them that. I’m very passionate about this line of work.

“The best part about leaving our dogs with Gabe is they are so happy to leap out of the car and run up to him! They are obviously very comfortable there. Thanks again Gabe for a worry free trip. We very much appreciate the work you do for us. You are a blessing!”
“Amber has come in clutch for me two years apart -- traveling through the area from hours away, looking for a dog sitter while at a work conference, with no contacts or boarding sites familiar with my dog -- Amber and her family have provided incredible care for my rambunctious border collie mix, Atlas. Her communication, flexibility, kindness, and enthusiasm for doggoes is amazing and I recommend her to everyone!!”
“Sarah and Matthew are a DREAM for dog sitters and their beautiful farm is just paradise for any pup. They took such great care of our dog for eight days. They’d send pictures daily and communicated with us each day. Absolutely five star rating!”
“Ashlee was amazing with my 2 very high energy dogs. She sent me pictures and videos during their stay and was so accommodating and flexible! I will definitely be using her next time for my pups stay! I can’t thank you enough! ☺️”
“Melissa and her family were very nice took excellent care of Zoe when we were away. She sent pictures and I could see that they were very kind to her and I loved that her young daughter was interacting with her also. Thank you again Melissa and I'd definitely ask again for you to take care of her next time.”
“Chrissy was amazing!! She and her family took such great care of our dogs. She sent photos and made sure they got plenty of play time and was great with communication and very flexible. We will absolutely use her again for dog sitting and highly recommend her for anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Thank you for taking such awesome care of Miles. We are so thankful that he was in a safe, nurturing place while we were out of town. Communication and pictures were great. When we have plans to travel again, you’ll be the first we call!”
“Meeko stayed with Jennifer for the first time last week and we were so happy with our experience. She has a big beautiful family so there is no shortage of love given to your pet. But between her own dogs and others boarding, Meeko had the best time playing with all of them and Jennifer sent plenty of photos and updates. We will absolutely use her services again I highly recommend her!”
“Our dog had a wonderful visit. We were sent daily updates and photos. Our dog enjoyed playing with Kathryn’s dog in her big fenced in yard and the family seemed very welcoming.”
“I felt immediately comfortable with Myra upon meeting her. Sage had a great week and ate all week, something she never does in a kennel. Myra is a puppy lover and kept us updated during the week. We plan to use her service again in a few weeks!”
“Chris took great care of our dog. He sent terrific photos each day and gave a report on how she was getting along. She went on walks and played with his daughters. We would be happy to use Chris again. Highly recommend him.”
“Kimberly is great! She is very quick at responding and giving updates (including photos). We noticed our dog came back very comfortable and relaxed. We are already booking again! Thank you very much Kimberly!”
“Tasha and Joseph are amazing dog sitters and I could not recommend them higher. They watch my dog Tesla while I was away on a trip I was unavoidable. They were so accommodating and were even willing to give him his medicine in our absence. They sent us pictures every day and it was clear that he was thoroughly played with. I cannot say enough good things.”
“Kyri was an excellent dog sitter for Clover! She responded promptly to messages, including my late request for booking, and provided updates and pics of Clover while I was away. She was very accommodating for my senior blind dog and gave her medication (my dog is also diabetic and requires insulin). It was easy to coordinate pick-up and drop-off times. I did not worry about Clover's well being while I was away. I will definitely book with Kyri again!”
“Paige is awesome! Sent daily updates with photos and took great care of our dog. Our dog also has a fussy diet and a last-minute medication added and Paige handled it all fantastically. Highly recommend!”
