“Erin was amazing! She took such great care of Gus and for a long time! (9 nights) Gus had so much fun and she sent us updates multiple times a day. I had peace of mind the entire time and was never worried about my boy. We will absolutely be going back to Erin!”
“When we met Rachel prior to booking the stay, Rylee immediately became friends with her. Rachel kept us informed with photos during Rylee's stay. Rylee enjoyed playing with Rachel's dog Max and the other furry guests. We will definitely request Rachels assistance in the future.”
“Jayden and his family were absolutely amazing with Greta! From the moment we dropped her off, I knew she was in great hands. Jayden sent plenty of pictures throughout her stay, and seeing how happy, relaxed, and well cared for she was gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she was treated like part of the family, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would absolutely trust Jayden to watch Greta again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!”
“Alan was very positive.He sent pictures and comments, and he also was patient with our change in plans. We hope that he'll be able to watch Hershey again sometime because it was a great experience for our dog.”

Pablo was happy, well-loved, and so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“I would highly recommend Zurijanne! She is responsive, great with all pets big and small providing video and picture updates daily. I knew my dogs were in great hands when I was away!”
“Rylee seemed to enjoy her time with Kristin. Kristin kept us up to date with photos of how Rylee was doing. This was very much appreciated. We will definitely use Kristen again.”

“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Barb! She watched our dog for nearly 20 days and kept us completely at ease with regular photo updates and great communication. When we faced unexpected travel delays, Barb was incredibly understanding and flexible. She is reliable, professional, and attentive—we will absolutely book with her again!”
“My wife and I were traveling and needed to find boarding for our dog Chloe. We found Arling and Mary, and our experience with them was nothing short of wonderful! We met them for a meet-and-greet, where we discussed boarding expectations and Chloe's needs while Chloe had the opportunity to explore their residence. We were impressed by Arling's questionnaire sheet, which he used to take meticulous notes about Chloe and her needs and routines. We felt at ease and very confident that Chloe was in good hands. Drop off was smooth, and we received regular picture updates throughout Chloe's stay. When it was time for pick up, Arling and Mary helped bring Chloe and her stuff out, and also helped load things into my vehicle. They are very kind and personable people, and it is reflected in how well they took care of Chloe. I'm pretty sure they spoiled Chloe more than we do! I would 100% recommend them as Rover providers, and look forward to booking with them again!”
“Penny was great! She sent many photo updates of our puppies. They had many adventure walks, had time to play in her yard, and they also did some training sessions. We will definitely be back!”

About: Hi, I’m Ariel! I’m a former nurse and now a stay-at-home mom with a lifelong love for animals. Caring for others has always been a big part of who I am, and that same compassion extends to every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication administration, or simply a comforting presence while you’re away, I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care. As someone who is home throughout the day, I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention and companionship. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my day. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention are things I genuinely look forward to. I plan my schedule carefully to make sure each pet gets the time, consistency, and care they deserve while they’re with me I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. Every pet has different needs, and I’m happy to tailor my care to their personality, energy level, and routine
“It was the first time we’d left our little one with a dog sitter, and we were a little worried because ever since we adopted her, she’s always been very shy and tends to be afraid of strangers, but Jenifer was amazing with Hazel. She was extremely friendly and kept us updated on our little ball of fur, making her feel like she was part of a second family. My husband and I are very happy—we’ll definitely be back.”
“I had an amazing experience with Rachel watching my 1 year old dog, Dash, this past Wednesday. From the start, Rachel was professional, friendly, and attentive to Dash's needs. This was our first experience with Rover and doggy daycare. She helped us with navigating the app. Rachel even sent me regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Dash was clearly happy and relaxed when I got home, which is the best sign of a great dog sitter. I highly recommend Rachel.”
“Samantha took care of our 5 month old puppy and she was great! He stayed over night with her and he had a great time! Her dog gets along with others and Tito was so excited to have a playmate for the day! She has experience with fostering dogs so she definitely knows how to care for them! Would recommend anyone to her for day care needs!!”
“Emily was awesome to deal with. Very friendly, great communication and flexible with time. My dog really enjoyed his time with her and will be going back next time we’re in town!”
About: I care for dogs by keeping them on a consistent routine and paying close attention to their individual needs. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, exercise, and safe, supervised play time. I follow feeding instructions exactly, keep water fresh, and maintain clean food and water bowls. I also watch for behavior or appetite changes and communicate anything important right away. I’m patient, calm, and attentive, and I take time to build trust so dogs feel comfortable and secure. Whether a dog is high-energy or laid-back, I adjust my approach to match their personality. As an active duty Army service member and lifelong dog owner since age 15, I bring reliability, structure, and genuine care to every pet I look after. I work Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM, and my job is only about 15 minutes from my apartment, so I can return home quickly if needed. My spouse works from home, so pets in my care are supervised 24/7. I’m an Active Guard/Reserve service member and typically work one weekend per month — I plan all pet care commitments around that schedule. I’m up daily at 4:30 AM and keep a very structured routine, so feeding times, walks, potty breaks, and exercise schedules are followed consistently. I also have a home camera system to monitor pets throughout the day. On most weekends, I spend the day out and active with my own dog, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and exercise. You may notice my rates are on the lower end. that’s by design! I keep my prices affordable and let my work speak for itself. If you feel I went above and beyond, a tip is how I know I nailed it. No pressure at all, but it means the world when people show their appreciation that way. I’m committed to giving your pet the best care possible regardless! I provide a safe, structured, and supervised home environment where dogs are treated like family. Pets in my care are allowed to comfortably roam the home and are not kept in a crate all day. I have an American Bully in the home who is friendly and fully up to date on all vaccinations. All dogs are kept on leash during outdoor time for safety. I keep the home clean, remove hazards, and maintain fresh water and feeding areas daily. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and behavior guidelines. I also use a home camera system to monitor pets when I step out. While I don’t normally crate dogs, I can crate your pet if needed or if that is your preference.
About: A life long animal lover, I've had a variety of pets throughout the past twenty years. I have cared for, trained and loved horses, dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, rabbits and rodents. I majored in Biology in college and took several animal science classes. I was a horseback riding instructor for summer camp in college, and have volunteered with different animal rescue orgs over the years. I currently work from home which gives me increased flexibility to provide care and attention to your pets. I enjoy getting out during the day to go for walks or romps around the yard to get some fresh air and exercise. I will treat your pet as I do my own, with kindness, compassion and lots of love. I have a fenced in yard and also will take the pets for a daily walk (dogs) to give them a change of scenery and additional exercise. I do have a 6 month pup that loves all animals and will be a great playmate. I also will provide regular updates and pictures for those clients who desire them.
About: Hi! I grew up on a hobby farm of sorts - chickens, goats, calves, guinea pigs, cats, dogs, and even the occasional injured wild bird or rabbit. I have since moved around, explored the country, and landed here in Henry County. During my trvels, I voluntered at many shelters as well as adopted 5 dogs who have sinced crossed the rainbow bridge. I now have two big squishy pups who love traveling and soaking up rays of sunshine. I work from home during the week and have a few home depot shifts on the weekend. I work from home during the week and home depot on the weekends. We like going for morning and evening walks along with some rolling around in the back yard over lunch. This will depend on the pet and his/her personality. I have many ways of separating animals should it be needed. Or, if wveryone is getting along, we have a nice big back ars for playtime and wrastling.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. Growing up my family had a golden retriever, Yorkshire terrier and beagle lab mix. I recently lost my 17 year old cava-poo.

I also have a large crate inside if needed. My cat is super friendly and gets along with all pets.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly see them as family. I’ve cared for friends’ dogs overnight, provided regular walks, and helped with drop-ins for years. I now have one friendly 3-year-old mini Bernedoodle of my own. Dog care is a natural fit for me — I love giving pups attention, structure, affection, and play. This is a family experience as well; my kids (11, 9, and 7) have grown up around dogs and are wonderful, gentle helpers. We understand dog body language, needs, and boundaries, and we want every dog to feel safe and loved while in our home. I would be honored to care for your pup and give them all the comfort, exercise, and affection they need while you’re away. We spend a lot of time outside walking, playing, and getting fresh air. I walk daily and am happy to take your dog along with me 2–3x per day if desired. If you need boarding, drop-ins, or extra walks while you’re away, I am here to help We have a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime. If you need a crate I would ask that you bring your own. I feed on a consistent schedule and will gladly adjust to follow your instructions. We maintain a very active, loving environment and make sure your pup feels right at home. Please reach out with any additional needs or services — I’m happy to accommodate!
About: My sister and I moved back to our home town and moved in together (along with my 10 year old niece and my 2 year old daughter). Both of us have had pets all our lives, including owning dogs from as small as 20 pounds to as large as 120 pounds. My doggie Odie stayed with my ex in California and our current family recently and unexpectedly lost my sister’s mini-Poochon, Cosmo. We recently adopted a Labradoodle! Grover is super sweet and loves to have playmates but also understands how to give other dogs space. My 2 year old loves all animals and understands how to give dogs space and to read physical cues (lip curl, growl), but unfortunately, we can’t dog sit or board any dogs that aren’t okay with small children. We are okay with dogs that need some extra care (meds, help going outside to potty, etc.). We have a large fenced yard and we welcome pups in all parts of our house. Thanks! I work from home, my sister watches my two year old in the house, and my 10 year old niece does online school so lots of options for care and cuddles. My parents are also just a few minutes away if we ever need back up! We have a large fenced yard and can do walks as needed (although with some limits when the weather is super cold). We welcome pups in all parts of our house including bedrooms on the second or first floor if pups have a hard time with stairs.
“Celene is legitimately the best dog sitter you could ask for. She not only is an early riser but is a night owl. Celene sends updates and ask questions without even being asked. She not only puts effort in towards jaxsons training she has even went out of her way to teach us on how we could be doing different/better. Celene also makes sure that jaxson gets the proper food/water/bathroom breaks as he needs. He doesn't come back hungry, needing to potty, or beat up. Penny, celenes dog, is hands down the cutest little thing I've ever seen. When I get there she is happy to greet me at the door with kisses and tail wags. Jaxson also loves penny and always comes back PROPERLY wore out. My final thoughts are if I could had another grandma I would ask her. Shes been there for us EVERY time we've need her and that's at the end of the day all I could ask.”
“I felt so comfortable being out of town even though I missed my baby❤️.She updated me everyday how Diamond was doing,sent pictures.I would really recommend her to keep your pet very good with animals.I will be taking Diamond back if I have to go out of town again.”

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Growing up, I cared for my own small dog and regularly watched family members’ and neighbors’ dogs through walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care.

About: From a very young age, caring for animals has been a natural part of my life. When I was eight years old, I started small home-placement program for pets abandoned along rural roads, making sure they found safe, loving homes. With the help of a local veterinarian, I also cared for injured wildlife-nursing animals hit by cars to health and raising many of their orphaned babies. Growing up on a farm gave me hands on experience with a wide range of species and taught me how to read body language, build trust and stay calm in any situation. Many of the local farmers trusted me to take care of their livestock and four-legged family members while they went on vacation. Over the years I have continued my skills through veterinary medicine studies, reiki, pet massage therapy and a deep interest in natural, holistic care. These experiences shaped me into a patient, intuitive, and knowledgeable caregiver who understands animals on a deeper level and treats every pet with respect, gentleness and consistency. II currently work part‑time on weekdays and am free every day after 1 p.m., as well as fully available on weekends. I’m happy to walk, play with, and feed your pets, and I’m comfortable working outdoors in all types of weather as long as your pet is, too. I don’t mind helping with cleanup—whether that’s backyard potty messes, litter boxes, or small‑animal cages—so your pet’s space stays fresh and comfortable while you’re away. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping everything as familiar and consistent as possible. I follow your pet’s normal routine closely—mealtimes, walks, playtime, medications, and comfort habits—so their day feels predictable and stress‑free. I take time to learn their cues, respect their boundaries, and match their energy, whether they need quiet companionship or active engagement. I keep your home environment clean and safe by refreshing water, tidying feeding areas, cleaning litter boxes or small‑animal cages, and wiping up any potty messes in the yard. I also make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure and that your pet has everything they need before I leave. My goal is to maintain the same level of care, calm, and attention they’re used to when you’re home.

“Rowdy thoroughly enjoyed his stay with Abby and her dogs. He was well cared for and Abby was great about sharing pictures and videos of his fun-filled stay. Choosing Abby again for future stays will be an easy choice.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Barb! She watched our dog for nearly 20 days and kept us completely at ease with regular photo updates and great communication. When we faced unexpected travel delays, Barb was incredibly understanding and flexible. She is reliable, professional, and attentive—we will absolutely book with her again!”
“Best sitter for my Border Collie I found. She ( Janelle) has the large yard and home to roam and is such a great person. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️10 plus from me - I used her for 1 year and many over night stays.”
About: We have taken care of many dogs before in our fenced backyard in Sylvania Township. We are home full time 5 days a week and love to spoil our doggies. Days that we are at work, our doggies are let out during the day and played with. We are great with our 4 legged friends, love to walk them and are not afraid of dog hairs on our couch. We have two Golden's, a cat who is very social and one daughter. We send pictures daily! My husband and I both work full time, however my husband is in office only two days. Every other day, we are always home. The days that we both are at work, I come home to let our dogs out and play. We also have cameras in our homes where we check in on our dogs when watching others. We have two loving and playful doggies in our home. We also have one cat who is very comfortable around dogs. Our backyard is fenced and we live in a safe neighborhood.
“Sandy did an amazing job! She gave daily updates and photos. My dog definitely looked like she enjoyed her stay. I highly recommend! Will be requesting again in the future!”
“Fantastic service! Very accommodating to my travel schedule with pick-up & drop-off. Great communication in very timely way including daily updates. Very knowledgeable of dogs, and how she introduced my dog to her two. Even allowed me to meet her pups. I’m in process of booking again, and very grateful for Lisa and her thorough care of Winston!”
“Paige was awesome with our 2 girls, she was very loving and caring and sent plenty of pictures showing how much fun they was having and keeping us informed of anything that may have happened. Our English cream retriever was playing in the rain and got a little muddy but Paige completely cleaned her up and sent us pictures. I strongly recommend Paige and we will be using her again. Thank you Paige for being a wonderful dog sitter!!”
“Great communication through the whole process, and made us feel comfortable with our first Rover experience. If you are looking for someone to love your furry family member like you, Cindy is the one.”
“Logan and Ellie were nothing but amazing dog sitters for my dog. My dog struggles with really bad anxiety and they made sure the keep a close eye on her and had amazing patience and understanding than anyone I’ve seen. They kept me updated all the time and made did an amazing job of communicating any concerns or asking questions. They were knowledgeable in how to properly care for dogs and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter. Rosemary seemed very satisfied and that makes me satisfied, she’s not an easy dog to care for so anyone who can handle her has my respect and appreciation”
