She has a nice fenced yard where dogs can enjoy outdoors time. She was available for meet/greet and drop off/pick up. All went smoothly!”

“Kelly and her family were absolutely wonderful with my sweet Myka. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my pup was being loved in her home as much as we love her in ours. She lives in a beautiful neighborhood with minimal traffic. Kids and families everywhere was perfect Would ABSOLUTELY use agin!!”

“This was my first experience utilizing Rover. We initially had a meet and greet and I knew my puppy was in good hands. I appreciated the videos and pictures and seeing my puppy interact with his family and other pets. I would certainly use David again and really feel fortunate that I picked the right sitter for our dog.”

“Ramona was a lifesaver! I had a sitter booked for Thanksgiving for over a month that cancelled the morning I was supposed to drop my dogs off. Ramona replied quickly, sent lots of pictures, and made sure my dogs were happy and comfortable!”
“What an amazing experience! From start to finish. Updates in between. I could tell picking my dog up that he had such a comfortable time! She did not disappoint! Thanks again! (:”

“Tolley and her family are so welcoming. Our dog, Boots, just made himself right at home. She sent us pictures and updates which is always a reassuring feeling too. Tolley was very flexible and accommodating with our schedule. . I definitely recommend Tolley and will be using her again to watch our Boots.”

“Gail truly enjoys having dogs in her home! She was so good with our high energy labradoodle and made sure he had opportunities to burn some energy. It was nerve racking leaving him overnight for the first time but I felt much better knowing he was well taken care of because she sent me so many updates! I will definitely be reaching out to Gail in the future!”


“Archna did amazing with our girl Demi! I will recommend her to anyone. She loved her just like she was her own pet! I got pictures daily with an update on how she was doing! I will deff. Be using her again in the future! Thank you so much for your amazing dog sitting. My girl had a blast with you ❤️❤️”

“Kaya has found a family that loves her as much as we do. After a 1 nighter, this was Kaya's first long visit of more than a week. Nothing but good reports from Sarah with pictures that showed Kaya's love for her and the family. Kaya will return.”

“Pat is the best as always. This was our second time using Pat. We are first time dog parents and worry about our pups energy and being too much but Pat always assures us how comfortable Finnegan is there and we are so thankful for that. Pat truly loves all dogs. Always easy to communicate with and provides plenty of updates and pictures.”

“Lynn always goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for my 16 year old chihuahuas. She doesn’t just watch them, she loves and cares for them in a way that every pet lover dreams of when it comes to their animals. Along with daily pictures and messages, Lynn even gave us a framed picture of my two pups that I will forever cherish! Could not recommend enough- I even think my dogs were sad when I picked them up because their vacay at Lynn’s was over!”
“Jason was super helpful with our last minute request to have Blu stay with him. He was very understanding of our situation and we really appreciate him helping us out! Will definitely use Jason in the future!”

“Danielle and her kids were fantastic watching our dog for several days during vacation! Being on multiple medications, I’m always a bit nervous to leave her somewhere new, but Danielle was great and didn’t miss a beat! They went above and beyond to make her comfortable and we are so grateful ❤️”

“Shweta is an Absolutely Wonderful Dog Sitter! From the moment we connected, Shweta was warm, responsible, and truly attentive to my dog’s needs. She took the time to learn about his personality and routines. While I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and little notes that reassured me my dog was not only safe but happy and loved. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such capable hands. I’m so grateful we found Shweta and hope she’ll be available every time we need her!”

“We left our pup with Jan for an extended time while we were out of the country. Mopsey had a marvelous time and I felt so secure knowing Jan was looking after her so lovingly and professionally. I wouldn't hesitate one second to leave Mopsey in her care again!”

“My dog Dylan was very happy to stay with Peter! Even though Dylan is very shy, he warmed right up to Peter and his dog Winston. I am glad that Dylan had a friend to play with during his time away form me! Dylan slept the whole next day when we got him back because of all the playing (LOL)! Overall, I would definitely pick Peter to watch Dylan again if need be!”

“We loved Vicki and her husband and so did Rudy! He ran off with her as soon as we got there and that was enough to put me at ease. He had a wonderful time and they treated him as their own. She sent pics during his stay and was in touch often, which I appreciated so much! Her home is lovely and we will 100% be bringing Rudy back for future stays! :)”

“Michele was great! She was very patient and kind with my kitty who can be a little hissy. You can tell she truly loves animals and treats yours like they were her own. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Amazing sitter! I have three cats, and she went above and beyond for them. She cleaned the litter boxes, and helped repair one when it stopped working half way through my trip. She played with them and took pictures to show me they were okay, even the one who likes to hide. Cannot recommend her enough!”

“Laura was great with our cat, Teddy. We received happy pictures each day, a thorough description of how much Teddy ate and how they played, and good communication. It was wonderful having Laura look after Teddy on his 'staycation'!”

“I’ve had Keerie take care of my girls a few times now and she is so, so great every time. I hate leaving them but knowing how well Keerie cares for them, I don’t worry when I do.”

“Cheryl was easy to work with. Also, my two very shy cats were comfortable enough around her to come out of hiding. It takes a certain kind of person to do that. She will be the first person I contact if I need a cat sitter again.”

“Taylor was so great with my Cleo! She was available on short notice and was willing to meet us prior to going away for a few days. I was really worried how Cleo would react, he is an older dog and protective, but she handled him so very well! Thank so much Taylor! I will be reaching out again!”

About: My husband and I have owned dogs and cats our whole lives and I have been taking care of other people’s pets since I was in high school and have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My husband and I are both approved rover pet care takers so one or both of us may be the one to help! I’m a stay at home mom with a husband who works remote so I’m very flexible! This allows me to provide consistent care, frequent potty breaks, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pet will receive plenty of supervision and companionship while in my care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided. I always keep pets supervised, ensure doors and gates are secure, and pay close attention during walks and outdoor time. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: Growing up, my family fostered cats, and it taught me how special and unique each one is. My partner, Jared, also grew up with cats and has a deep love for them. During the seven years I nannied for a family, I cared for their cats as part of my daily routine, ensuring they were happy and well looked after. We both have a genuine affection for cats and would do everything possible to ensure your feline feels loved, comfortable, and completely at ease in our care.
“I highly recommend Tara as a pet sitter. She watched my 4 cats over the holidays. She provided excellent care, ensuring they were fed, played with, and received the attention they needed. She also gave our oldest kitty medication during her visits. Tara's reliability and genuine love for animals make her the perfect choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy sitter!”

“Pierre was amazing! I put in a last minute request for Pierre’s drop in services during the holidays and he quickly responded. He sent multiple pictures per visit with my kittens being feed and litter boxes cleaned daily! He even grabbed my packages and placed them inside for me. Thank you, Pierre!”

“Cassandra was a great cat and house sitter. She was communicative, sent us great pictures and videos, kept the house clean and tidy, and followed instructions for Kitty’s care. Kitty seemed well taken care of and happy. We will definitely reach out to Cassandra for our future travels. Thank you, Cassandra!”

“Julie is absolutely amazing! I felt so comfortable w her and her warm personality! She gave the best updates and treated my baby boy like I imagine she’d treat her own ?. I know he’ll be in good hands when she babysits again! Thank you, from both of us!”

About: Cats are still seemingly new to me, since they are so different from dogs. I lived with my best friend and her cat, Ginger for two years. We got along well, especially when I was the one feeding her dinner when I got home from work. I even was even able to start interpreting her different meows. Even, though cats are still an enigma to me. I would treasure the opportunity to help you with yours.
“Gracie did such a great job! She clearly cared about my cats, kept them stimulated and busy, and went above and beyond our requests when she was here. She spent extra time and sent the greatest photos. Very well done.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Windfall
“Wubbie seemed like she was right at home! Sarah kept me updated with lots of pictures and daily walk updates! I would love to have Wubbie stay with them again in the future when needed! Thanks so much for taking such good care of Wubbie!”

“My Gus was very comfortable during a day long stay at Ramona's home. He's a rambunctious six month old and Ramona handled him calmly and didn't get rattled by his 'puppiness.' Thank you!”

“Wonderful sitter and her dogs are lovely. I have a teeny toy poodle and he is Captains little buddy. Captain is such a sweety and begs for you to let him play with your pups. My dog gets excited every time he sees Marie when we pull up on her drive way. Will repeatedly take my dog to her house for playdates and needed dog sitting. She is also very accommodating and flexible with bad schedules!”

“Excellent service. Zach and his daughter were great with my dog Rex! Great setup with a tall fence and Rex loved playing with their dogs.This was a same day booking and they were able to accommodate us last minute and also the following day. I had only left my dog one day at a kennel his whole life so was nervous and within minutes knew I had made the correct choice with Zach and his home!”

“Thomas and his partner Hannah were wonderful with Lina from the moment we all first met. They are friendly and accommodating and have a real love for dogs. I am so grateful to leave Lina in such competent hands when I visit Ohio!”

“I can't even tell you how wonderful Tolley and Tom are. Not only did they take care of our crazy pup who had a great time there, they went above and beyond. I will be using them again and highly recommend to anyone who needs these types of services. Thank you Tolley and Tom for the great experience.”

“Regina sent me tons of photos of Bambi while he was in her care and I greatly enjoyed seeing how much fun he was having. I will definitely be working with her again in the future. Thank you so much Regina!!”

“Monika is my hero this week. She was accommodating, caring, and very patient with my puppy Suede. I cannot recommend her more. I will definitely book with her again. She is AMAZING!”

“Thor had a great time with Swetha and her family. He must have played a lot with their dog Tucker, because he was wiped out once he got home. I was very happy Swetha sent me updates and pictures of Thor. Thor will definitely be going back!”

“Nugget had a wonderful day with Susan and his doggie friends! She kept me updated during the day and it’s very comforting to know Nugget is in such good hands while I’m at work!”

“Mariia was amazing! She accommodated me last minute and was super understanding and easy to communicate with. I was just thankful to have someone to even watch my pup but she gave her amazing above and beyond care- taking her on a 45mn walk and sending me updates so i wouldn't worry. Mariia is very caring and professional and I would absolutely recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pet. Thanks Mariia!”


About: My husband and I own a very sweet, playful Great Dane/mastiff and a pure bred English Mastiff. We have experience with all kinds of dogs and other animals. We have a large finished upstairs where our dog loves to run and play. We have a large backyard that is fully fenced/gated. We walk daily (in nice weather). We have fun toys to play with and a whole room for your dog to sleep in (instead of a cage) but if your dog prefers a cage we have a huge one he can sleep in (or you can bring your own). I stay home so your pet will have plenty of company! We have three young girls who absolutely love playing with dogs. They are gentle and dogs always love them.
“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!”

“We’ve left our dog with Mike and Phyllis several times.They’ve taken good care of him. They have been very flexible and great to work with. We’ve enjoyed the updates and pictures they send.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Windfall
About: My wife and I love dogs and are active with local rescues. We have five dogs of our own at home, a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities! We have Lacy - a black lab, Goldie - a cocker spaniel, Cinder - a pit-bull mix, Timmy - a teacup yorkie, and our newest addition, Noelle - a golden doodle puppy. I have a flexible schedule and can usually fit in three or four drop-in visits a day. My wife and I are both in education, so we work hours that are conducive to a second job in pet care. My full time job is a middle school social studies teacher, so I have active background checks and certifications. In addition, we have three dogs at home that are certified therapy dogs and have their Canine Good Citizen certification. We make regular visits to local nursing homes with our pets.
“Finn gets so much joy when his friend Cassie comes! All I have to say is ‘guess who is here’ before she rings the bell and he runs to the front door, with his most excited barking and greets her with so much enthusiasm! And she gets more kisses from him than I do!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Keerie is a great dog walker for our Mabel. Mabel loves her weekly long walks and snuggles and I love Keerie’s responsiveness, timeliness and communication. Keerie is a true animal lover who I highly recommend.”

About: Hello, there my name is Kate. My experience with animals is both personal and professional. I have pet sit for clients for 10 years. I've taken care of all sorts of dogs small and large. When watching other's dogs, I provide them with the love and attention they need. I can feed, check up on, walk, and/or let your dogs out to play. My personal experience with animals dates back to early childhood. My first pet was a Maltese named mortimer. I love animals and I enjoy spending time with dogs. I am very active and I love taking dogs on walks. I am a graduate of Case Western Reserve University Class of 2016. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in chemistry. I am currently pursuing a graduate degree. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I am available weekdays after 3:00 PM eastern time. I am currently not accepting pets in my home but I am happy to visit and attend to your pets as needed at your location.

About: From making sure to engage in adequate playtime and socialization as a puppy to assistance with grooming to the occasional diaper change and medications for senior care, I've loved and adored taking care of our family Bichon Frisé Angel Baby! Every pet brings a different personality and unconditional love to our lives, because they're not just friends ~ they're family! So why not give back just as much love as they give us? You are your fur babies' whole world, so give them the gift of a little company, a fun walk, playtime, and extra treats and cuddles! I'm currently unemployed, but still live with my parents, so I'll have plenty of time to look after your pets! If this changes at any time, I will let you know immediately, so I can assist you in finding other arrangements or finding a compromise to ensure your pet still receives the care they deserve! Because Angel Baby can get a little jealous since she's an old lady, we don't have other dogs at our house, but she still gets all my love! This means cleaning up the occasional potty accident, routinely checking that her toys are functional and free of any potential hazards, keeping up with her medication schedule, and making sure to stay attentive of vehicles and plants she may try to ingest during walks. For my new furry friends, this also means ensuring that all laundry detergent and other dangerous substances are properly secured/stored and making sure the yard is free of any hazards or any broken/insecure fencing. You will be notified as soon as possible of any unsafe conditions, because your fur baby is family and we protect our family!
About: i have taken care of animals since i was 10. i have always had an animal in my home and have helped tremendously take care of them! I have helped out family, friends and neighbors with their animals and looked over them while there not home!! i currently work part time, but will have so much time for your pets and will get off work if needed! I am available all weekends and most weekdays, depending on weeks. i have a cat and 4 dogs who are trained on leashes and a yard for them to play in. they love other dogs and would love another friend!

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and bunnies for nearly 7 years. I love being able to give a dog a reason to wag their tail, a cat to want more pets, and be someone that a family can rely on to care for their furry friends! I’m currently a graduate student who has designated clinical placements each semester. I am able to provide care during evenings on clinical placement days. Other than that, I am quite flexible with my schedule. Transparent communication will be provided through all steps and care. As I have a rescue animal of my own, having your furry one in my home will NOT be feasible. My care will be suited in the animal’s comfort of your own home.
About: Hi! I’m Megan, a stay-at-home mom with a lifelong love for animals. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, whether you’re heading to work or taking a vacation, so my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, and I understand that every pet has different needs. Whether your furry family member loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. As someone who spends most of my time at home, I have a flexible schedule and can provide lots of companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and updates throughout the day. I know how reassuring it is to receive photos and messages while you’re away, so I’ll happily keep you updated on how your pet is doing. My priorities are safety, patience, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I believe every animal deserves kindness, consistency, and lots of love. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and provide plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and daycare on most weekdays and weekends. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine and provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, love, and plenty of updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every booking. I provide a calm, loving environment, closely supervise all interactions, and follow your instructions carefully. Because I have young children, I only accept friendly pets that are comfortable around kids, and I always recommend a meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure everyone is a great fit.
