I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter. :)”
“Sharon was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Zelda! She was so accommodating and made sure Zelda felt right at home. All of the dogs she was caring for got along great with Zelda, which made us feel at ease while we were away. Zelda had such a fun and happy time, and it was clear she was well loved and cared for. Sharon also kept us updated with great communication throughout our vacation, which gave us peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!”

“Tom and Tolley and the whole family are great! This was our dog’s third stay (2nd boarding overnight) and we were a little apprehensive initially, because our dog has separation anxiety. Our dog did very well and was very excited to go back. Tom and Tolley were professional, reassuring, caring and receptive to our dogs needs. She was treated like one of the family and had a great time.. received daily updates (text, photo, video) with feedback during her stay. It was a very positive experience overall for us and our dog. It was nice to get away and not worry and feel comfortable that our dog was in good hands and we could trust them to provide and care for her. 100% positive experience.”

“We had such a great experience boarding our dog with Shannon and Robert. They made it easy from the start! You can tell that this is a family of dog-lovers, which brings so much comfort when leaving your baby behind. They updated us daily with pictures and tidbits on how the stay was going. Their home is calm, clean, and comfortable. We're so grateful for the love and care they gave our boy while we were away. We look forward to becoming a repeat customer & I will recommend Shannon and Robert to any and all friends in the future!”

“Anna was AMAZING with our two fluff beasts while we were on vacation. The cats were both healthy and happy when we returned. Anna won over our older, more skittish cat and took extra effort to keep a close eye on his needs. She kept me updated on medical issues, even when there were no symptoms to report (which I really appreciated), adjusted her visit schedule based on the cats’ appetites, and even hunted down one of their supplements when we didn’t realize we had no backup container on hand. Simply put, Anna is wonderful. We will be booking with her again, and you should, too.”

She followed the provided instructions really well and it's clear that she is very passionate about animals and her profession, and she's very professional and personable. We would certainly recommend her services to others and would utilize them in our future need as well.”
About: I've had a love for animals my entire life and have years of hands-on pet care experience. Growing up with two family dogs taught me the responsibilities of daily pet care, from feeding and walking to playtime, exercise, grooming, and making sure they always felt loved and cared for. In addition to caring for my own pets, I volunteered as a foster with Cincinnati Animal CARE, where I provided a safe and nurturing home for a foster cat. Through fostering, I gained experience helping a pet adjust to a new environment, establishing routines, monitoring their well-being, and giving them the patience and attention they needed to thrive before finding their forever home. These experiences have helped me become a compassionate, dependable caregiver who understands that every pet has their own personality and deserves individualized care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. In addition to caring for dogs throughout my life, I also had the rewarding experience of fostering a cat through Cincinnati Animal CARE. Fostering taught me the importance of patience, creating a calm and safe environment, and helping an animal adjust to a new home and routine. I provided daily care, including feeding, cleaning the litter box, playtime, and plenty of affection while monitoring the cat's comfort and well-being. This experience strengthened my understanding that every pet has a unique personality and needs individualized care. Whether I'm caring for a playful kitten, a relaxed senior cat, or an energetic dog, I'm committed to making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable! My schedule allows for flexibility throughout most of the week. I attend classes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, so I have limited availability during those times. Outside of those class hours, I am available for pet care services, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I strive to be reliable and accommodating when scheduling visits, walks, or overnight care, and I will communicate promptly to ensure your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. At my house I have a fenced in yard so my dog is protected from any of the animals around. Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first. I provide dependable care, constant supervision, and secure walks so you can feel completely at ease.
“Mitchell did a wonderful job taking care of my very cute but chronically ill cat. He gave Oswald medicine, fed him & cleaned litter boxes. He went above and beyond by bringing in packages & noticing that the trash needed to be taken out. I really appreciated not coming home to a house that smelled like week-old garbage! Mitchell is a skilled communicator. He asked pertinent questions, kept me updated on Oswald’s activities & sent adorable photos. I plan to hire him again for future vacations.”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life, and they’ve always been such a big part of it! My mom and I have fostered many cats, from newborn kittens to seniors. So I’m very comfortable with all ages, personalities, and needs.
About: Hi! My name is Evelyn! I have taken care of cats pretty much my whole life! I Grew up with them as a kid and have two kitties of my own now! I love giving the best care and attention I have to all animals<3 your little fur baby will be safe and well cared for with me!

“Thomas is amazing! Your pup will be in great hands with him! His love for dogs is very apparent and he was attentive to all of my dogs many needs lol. Thomas was also great at communication and Abner could not have asked for a better stay! Highly recommended!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tom and Tolley (and their sweet and kind children) provided for Rudy! From the start, communication was excellent—they kept me updated and made me feel totally at ease. They have a great backyard that gave Rudy plenty of room to play and burn off energy. It’s such a relief to know Rudy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Tom and Tolley!”

“This was Luna’s first time with Megan, and I couldn’t be happier with how it went. She was welcomed with warmth and treated like family in a cozy home setting. The photo update was very reassuring, and she came home tired and happy. So grateful to have found such a loving place for her!”
“Our pups had a great time! Carla accepted our booking the day of after we had another one cancel. She kept us up to date with photos & videos. Would definitely book with her again if we return to Cleveland”
About: I had my dog Lucy for 15 years and just recently lost her. I would love to help take care of others now. I am a homemaker so can give constant time and care I’m a homemaker and live alone. I’d love to help take care of someone else’s precious fur baby! Since I don’t work, I’ve got time! I have a fenced in yard and am a homemaker so I’m available to be with your dog all the time while they are here
About: I got my first puppy for my 10th birthday. She was entirely my responsibility. I fed, bathed, and trained her. She was a huge white shepherd and the sweetest thing on paws I still miss her. Since then, I’ve had many, many dogs and cats through the years. I’ve been through dog training school several times. I currently have three full-sized Goldendoodles who are reasonably well trained, although they are still way too friendly. I’m retired and available about any day except Sunday afternoons: noon church service. I get my groceries delivered, so I’m here most of the time. I try to walk one of mine every day, weather permitting. I would walk your pup before I walk mine. I also have a fenced-in back yard where the dog run and play. My house is dog friendly, and I’m not overly concerned with dirt. I also have the world’s best vacuum cleaner to deal with it and all the hair. lol I have a large fenced-in back yard with river rock instead of grass, so mud is not a problem. My three friendly Doodles love racing around, especially in the snow, and they would love to add your dog to the fun. At the end of the day, we all go upstairs and sleep in my room with a baby-gate blocking the door, so there is no house roaming overnight. I also have room for crates if that’s what your dog needs to feel comfortable. I have one cat who is comfortable around dogs and knows where to hide if necessary. Please have your dog be familiar with cats or at least won’t attack her if she tries to make friends. I can accommodate special diets and know how to use a pill gun for medications.
About: I've owned and cared for a lot of different animals since I was 7, ferrets, rats, mice, fish, dogs, cats. I have senior animal care experience, and experience giving animals medication on a schedule. I've had my own dog Pinky since she was a puppy, so I'm sure I can handle any rambunctious pups! I have some cat stuff, even though I don't own a cat. I have a cat tree, scratching posts, cat toys. I'm a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to care for your beloved pets! I'm available for you to drop off/pick up your pets on weekends and weekdays from 8am - 10pm I have a Large fenced in back yard, and plenty of time to take dogs on walks. I have a small 5lbs Chihuahua named Pinky, she likes cats and medium to small dogs (big dogs make her a little nervous, but we are working on that). Pinky is crate trained, so if your fur baby is crate trained I'll have no problem letting them out in the morning, and putting them in at night. If you have a senior animal, or an animal that needs medication, let me know all of the care details, so I can keep them on schedule and keep them comfortable and cared for!
About: I have had dogs just about my entire adult life. I had a miniature pinscher named Trey for 15 years and he was awesome! I also had a terrier mix named Alice for 12 years whom I loved very much. I have not had a dog for a few years now and miss getting to play/walk with a four-legged friend and figured this would be a fun way to scratch that itch. I have a sunroom that overlooks acres of woods for your pup to stare/bark at and a big front window to guard and let the mailman know who's boss. I work from home and can hang out with your pup all day in my house. I have a big yard they can play in and can take them for frequent walks. I do not have any pets so your pup will get my full attention. I have had dogs for 20+ years of my life and am a huge animal lover!
About: I’ve taken care of many animals in my life and also train my cat to play fetch and tag. I also have taken care of senior dogs during their final moments. Im currently a stay at home housewife and have some free time and I love animals so I definitely don’t mind how long or price for the care I’ll be giving. Also, if I am unavailable due to me, house sitting my husband could always attend and he is a Rover user. I give my cat and my friends animals when watching them all kinds of vitamins and supplements with salmon, fish, squid, and all kinds of other stuff. I give them attention so they know that they are loved and cared for. If the cat at my place is an issue he could stay in the bedroom for the time being
“I cannot express enough how amazing Samantha is!! I needed a last minute sitter for my goldens and she responded within minutes that she was willing and available. She sent the cutest pics of the dogs throughout the day and it was clear the dogs were having the best time! You could see how happy and cared for they were with Samantha! I will book with Samantha anytime I can in the future if the pups need a sitter! She is AMAZING!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We really appreciate the Rover service we got. Our PAWsome sitter, Abby A. took the time to meet with us before taking care of our precious baby goldendoodle -Winnie. We also love that she is absolutely great with pets and took the time to understand the rest of our needs and requests for our fur-baby. Thank You! Will definitely request again!”

“Madelyn did an excellent job for us with our 10-year-old German Shepherd. She was on time for every walk sent us pictures and kept us updated. If you need a great dog walker that gives good care to your dog I would highly recommend her. She also gave our dog her medicine every day. A+”
About: I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember! I have taken care of dogs of all ages from little puppies to cute oldie senior pups. I have experience and comfortability with giving meds, going on long walks, and playing with lots and lots of toys. When I was little I would take care of my neighbors dogs with basic responsibilities like letting them outside and feeding them, which made my love for dogs grow even more. I started a summer "business" with my sister and friend just trying to find an excuse to play with the neighborhood dogs. I even got to take my love into a career when I worked in a vet clinic for almost two years during covid. When owners were not allowed into the building, I would be the one to love, hold and play with the animals during the appointment time so that they were still taken care of. I also worked down in the boarding facility, feeding, cleaning, and walking a ton of dogs who all needed to stretch their legs a little. I take time with each animal as much as possible, so not only do they get to spend time with someone, but they get to spend time with someone who actively is just as excited to see them! I currently work part time, mostly mornings, so any visits in the afternoon or evening would be perfect for my schedule! I get my schedule as early as three weeks in advance, so I know exactly when I am free about then. I can also stay with dogs, but need to be able to leave in the early morning but usually isn't a problem! I have done lots of combination house sitting and pet sitting for many of my neighbors throughout the years! I always clean up after myself, and leave the place better than I found it. I can also do some odd chores here or there if you would like, I have watered lots of plants! Keeping the pet in the comfortable environment is most important to me, as that is their home and I want them to be as cozy as possible while I am there.
About: I have grown up with a dog in my house since I was born. I have taken care of neighbors and friends dogs while they have went on vacation or just out of town for work. Since moving away for college and now graduate school, I am looking for my dog fix since I cannot own one myself With the summer starting and vacations coming up I will do my best to be available for your dogs. I do have other responsibilities such as school and work but I am always 100% with my clients if I will be a good fit for the stay/drop or not. If you are looking to book with me but see my availability is different then what you’re looking for, please still send me a message and I will do my best to accommodate to make it work! Since I am not able to host dogs at my current place of residence, this will allow the dog to feel more comfortable with a stranger coming to take care of them while the owners are away for however long. I will adjust to their routine so they hardly notice the owners are gone. They will receive all the belly rubs and love they could ask for until their owner returns home
“Carrie has been awesome with my dog. I know he’s a little bit of a wild child sometimes but she’s been so good with him and it’s helped me out tremendously as my husband and I have a very busy work schedule. Could not recommend her more!”
“Alicia did an excellent job, she was very patient, loving and caring. She showed much compassion towards my dog who wasn't as willing to go with her. She soon did and together they had such a great time on there walk. I would HIGHLY recommend.”

“Brian is awesome! Such a huge help to me and such a gift to my 5 month old puppy. The walks while I'm at work during the day are so beneficial for my pup so she's not stuck in her crate all day, plus she's getting extra leash training on top of it! Brian is very reliable, friendly, and knowledgeable. Hiring Brian to walk my Sadie is the best decision I've made in a long time.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life, but my current living situation does not allow pets. I have found myself really missing the joy I get from taking care of animals! I’m also a teacher, so I have the patience necessary for any demeanor a pet may have! During summer, I’m free 24/7! During the school year, I can pop by in the mornings, and then I’m available all afternoon and evening for walks or play time. I treat each pet like they’re my own.

“Zach and Mariah are wonderful. They always respond to my questions with lightning speed and are super flexible when we need to change dates or cancel. Our pup really enjoys her midday walks and belly rubs and Zach and Mariah always send lots of pictures to prove it!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14 and have worked at two kennels (INN to PETS and PetSuites Westlake) , including dog daycare and puppy preschool. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, can administer medications, and always take extra time with puppies, seniors, or dogs with behavioral challenges. Additionally, I have always owned pets and I currently have two family dogs and one personal cat (listed in my profile). I focus on making every pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for like they’re my own. As a full-time student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care. I plan my days around pets’ routines, including walks, meals, playtime, and any special needs, so they receive reliable, attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and maintain a clean, safe environment. I’m patient with puppies, seniors, and pets with anxiety or behavioral challenges, and I make sure owners feel comfortable by providing regular updates.
“Allan was great with our dog! Very punctual, consistent communication, and helped us give medication when we found out our dog wasn’t feeling too well. He spent the whole time with our pup and would highly recommend!”
About: I say the above because for many years, my long time dog buddy, Shelby (pictured in the photo I'm holding), loved to ride in my car, right by my side. Shelby passed away in 2018 and I miss her so much, every day. In 2019, I rescued a blue heeler/beagle mix, Nova; then in 2024, a shepherd mix, Holly. Dogs have been my companions for more than 40 years, and I have loved caring for, walking, playing, vacationing and just plain hanging with them. . I truly love dogs. They are one of humankind's most noble and steadfast animal friends. I would very much enjoy taking your best friend (or friends) for a walk. I have always enjoyed the company of my canines...and I'm sure I'd feel the same way about your four-legged pals. Plus, getting out with them is great exercise...for both dog and human! I am semi retired, so I have much flexibility in the hours that can be devoted to dog walking. I walk my own dogs in all kinds of weather, which is necessary given the variable climate here in NE Ohio! In my own home, my dogs get out for walks at least three times a day, we well as potty breaks where necessary. They have crates where they can freely go to when they wish to. Most important is that the dogs and I adhere to a stable, regular routine, including feeding and playtimes.

Our dog did very well and was very excited to go back. Tom and Tolley were professional, reassuring, caring and receptive to our dogs needs. She was treated like one of the family and had a great time.. received daily updates (text, photo, video) with feedback during her stay. It was a very positive experience overall for us and our dog. It was nice to get away and not worry and feel comfortable that our dog was in good hands and we could trust them to provide and care for her. 100% positive experience.”
“We were nervous for our first time having a dog sitter for our pup, but Christina was great! Very communicative and our little guy was well taken care of. I’d recommend her for sure.”
“We had such a great experience boarding our dog with Shannon and Robert. They made it easy from the start! You can tell that this is a family of dog-lovers, which brings so much comfort when leaving your baby behind. They updated us daily with pictures and tidbits on how the stay was going. Their home is calm, clean, and comfortable. We're so grateful for the love and care they gave our boy while we were away. We look forward to becoming a repeat customer & I will recommend Shannon and Robert to any and all friends in the future!”
“We can't say enough about Margaret and the care she took of our beloved dog, Maisy. She sent many updates wih great pictures and we felt so comfortable that we had left our dog , for only the second time, in he care. Her dog and cat were also so welcoming to our dog which made her first experience with other pets a great one. We highly recommend Margaret to take wonderful care of your dog too.”
“I can't recommend Tim and Ashley enough as dog sitters! From the photos they sent and our happily exhausted pup, it was clear she had an amazing time with them. They made everything easy to coordinate and were a pleasure to work with. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat!”
“This is my first time leave in Tinkerbell alone with a sitter. Carrie made me feel very comfortable, sent updates and photos, and welcome Tinkerbell into her home. Tinkerbell and I both are very happy”
“Jeffany does an absolutely amazing job! Super prompt responses to questions/issues and pictures twice/day. Our dogs always return clean and happy with all of their things organized and blankets washed. I am EXTREMELY picky as to who watches our bulldogs and we will always use Jeffany when they are available! Highly recommend”
“Amanda did a great job taking care of my cavapoo for a week. Daisy came back looking great and she was happy. I got photos of Daisy asking for belly rubs so I know she was comfortable 🙂 My dog is usually afraid of men but she wasn't scared of Amanda's husband which was a huge plus. Her daughters also were kind to Daisy, they even gave her a new nickname ,Daisy-Doodle, which I will be using! Highly recommend.”
About: I got my first puppy for my 10th birthday. She was entirely my responsibility. I fed, bathed, and trained her. She was a huge white shepherd and the sweetest thing on paws I still miss her. Since then, I’ve had many, many dogs and cats through the years. I’ve been through dog training school several times. I currently have three full-sized Goldendoodles who are reasonably well trained, although they are still way too friendly. I’m retired and available about any day except Sunday afternoons: noon church service. I get my groceries delivered, so I’m here most of the time. I try to walk one of mine every day, weather permitting. I would walk your pup before I walk mine. I also have a fenced-in back yard where the dog run and play. My house is dog friendly, and I’m not overly concerned with dirt. I also have the world’s best vacuum cleaner to deal with it and all the hair. lol I have a large fenced-in back yard with river rock instead of grass, so mud is not a problem. My three friendly Doodles love racing around, especially in the snow, and they would love to add your dog to the fun. At the end of the day, we all go upstairs and sleep in my room with a baby-gate blocking the door, so there is no house roaming overnight. I also have room for crates if that’s what your dog needs to feel comfortable. I have one cat who is comfortable around dogs and knows where to hide if necessary. Please have your dog be familiar with cats or at least won’t attack her if she tries to make friends. I can accommodate special diets and know how to use a pill gun for medications.
