“Brendan and his family took great care of my 3yr old Lab - Indy. Clear communication, quick responses, updates with pictures, easy check-in and check-out. Not to mention, his little pup Ollie. Indy had a good time playing with and looked relaxed throughout the stay. Highly recommended and will certainly come back. Thanks Brendan! 😊”
“Melissa and her family were the most gracious hosts for our fur baby, Ozzie. He felt right at home and all the pictures of him playing, lounging, and enjoying treats was all the proof we needed that we made the best choice with Melissa. We will absolutely rebook the next time we have an out of town trip.”
“Second time Nicole takes care of my boys and the overall experience was again excellent. PJ and Bailey had a blast and enjoy their stay at Nicole’s house as their own vacation time. I got several daily videos and pictures of my dogs playing and having fun activities. Totally recommended. Thanks Nicole!”
“We loved Bonnie and she was very good with my puppy! She constantly kept us updated and sent us pictures while we were on vacation. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care and my puppy was very happy once we returned.”
“John and Kelly took really great care of Koda! They kept us updated on how he was doing and gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation. We look forward to booking with them in the future since Koda enjoyed his stay so much!”
“Christina was amazing with our 50lb boxer. He is very high energy and when he got home, he was worn out. I would definitely recommend her and hope to use her again as well!”
“Michael and Annie always take great care of our Black Lab Brody! We get photos throughout the stay assuring us that he feels right at home! He really looks forward to the long walks and doesn't seem to miss us at all, which makes us able to relax and not worry when we are on vacation. Thank you Michael and Annie for doing what you do, and for taking such good care of our boy!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! She took such wonderful care of our dog while we were away and kept us updated with adorable photos, which our family absolutely loved. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was happy, safe, and well cared for. We highly recommend her and would gladly trust her with our dog again. Thank you so much! 🩷”
“We are very happy with the service Amenda provided. She gave few updates on how Abby and Zoey are doing through out the day. Very happy and will be using in future.”
“They were great with my puppy, Brady! I got daily updates with photos. Brady loved the daily play dates and seemed to have an awesome time! Would absolutely take him back to Tasha & Joseph’s.”
“Layla was so well taken care of and Ann was great about sending updates and pics while we were away. It was such a peace of mind to know our pup was given lots of love and attention and was in a home instead of a kennel.”
“Absolutely perfect with my senior dog. Kept me updated on everything. Sent pictures when asked. And even smoothed over my overthinking of her stay. Nicole will make sure your family member is safe while you are away. Will be using her when needed in the future.”
“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!”
“I would definitely use Caitlin again as a place to board my dog Millie! Millie took to Caitlin at our first meet and greet, and acted like she belonged there. Caitlin sent multiple pictures and updates, and was very prompt answering any question I had. Millie came home a happy and healthy dog!”
“Porter absolutely loved his stay with Krystal and Ryan’s family. He ran right in to play with their dogs and although he was happy to see us when we returned, I think he was a bit sad to go. They created such a fun family environment for Porter and treated him as part of their family which I loved. We loved the photo and text updates. We will definitely use them again - I hope they are available every time we go out of town!!”
“I have a 12 yo German Shepard. He's an old man now. We were going away for New Years and our normal sitter wasn't available. I was apprehensive about leaving him with someone new. Karin was spectacular. She was attentive to his needs and careful about his 'age' related shortcomings. She has a pup of her own and a young son who loved my boy. Karin sent plenty of pics of him and was very communicative during his stay, asking questions to make sure behaviors were normal and making sure he'd tolerate the environment there! I don't know how many stays my old man has left in him, but Karin is definitely the person I'd want watching him when I leave!”

“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. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”
“Emma did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Hazel while I was out of town. Hazel has several specific needs, like medicine, special feeding instructions, and grooming needs, and Emma handled her complexity with care. She sent daily updates while I was away, which gave me peace of mind to know Hazel was being looked after during a stressful time. Emma absolutely came through for us and I’d recommend her to anyone!”
“Amber was very responsive and responsible. She seemed to love our fur baby like her own and communicated well while we were gone. Drop In card was always made right after visit with photos.”
“I recently moved to Ohio and needed to find a new pet sitter. This process has always been so stressful, needing a person my pets liked and I trusted. I lucked out when I found Cheryl! She is a true animal lover who is professional, trustworthy and genuinely kind. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Wonderful person & petsitter! I felt confident my cat & home would be in good care and after a holiday weekend's drop-in visits, I was proven 100% correct. I know for future petsitting needs I'm keeping Bethany as my top pick!”
“This was our first time ever using Rover and we were a little hesitant with having someone come into the house to care for our furbabies (2 cats) while we were on vacation. Enter in Kelsey! She was great! Kelsey showed up, took photos, and communicated greatly. We never had to worry at all while on vacation. I would definitely be booking Kelsey again for our next vacation to watch after our furbabies.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including both large and small dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, turtles, and fish. My professional background includes working at a veterinary clinic for several months, followed by a year and a half at an animal humane society, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals with diverse needs. I currently work at a doggy daycare, where I continue to build my knowledge of canine behavior, safety, and care. In addition to my professional experience, I have provided dog and house sitting services for family friends. I am experienced in caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs, ensuring they receive the patience, attention, and specialized care they require. As a lifelong animal lover, I also care for a variety of pets of my own, including three dogs, five cats, a rabbit, and a betta fish. My hands-on experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments allows me to provide dependable, compassionate, and attentive care for every pet as if they were my own. I work Monday through Friday, typically from 6:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., which gives me plenty of time each afternoon and evening to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship for your pets. I also have weekends completely free, allowing me to dedicate full days to giving your furry family members the love, attention, and care they deserve. I am committed to ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I tailor my care to each pet's individual needs and always follow the owner's instructions and routine. I strive to provide at least 30 minutes of playtime and enrichment activities during each visit. For pets without access to a fenced yard, I also provide approximately 30 minutes of neighborhood walks, depending on the pet's age, size, energy level, and overall health. Afterward, I continue engaging them with indoor play or enrichment activities to keep them mentally and physically stimulated.
About: I have owned pets for 18 years. I currently have 2 dogs- Lenny (golden retriever, 9 yrs old) and Pepsi (mini schnauzer, 7). I absolutely love dogs/other pets and can’t remember a life without them! Aside from walking, feeding, training, bathing, and playing with my own pups, I also have some experience sitting for others. I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, well-tempered and naughtier dogs, so if your pup isn’t the most well-behaved, it won’t scare me off! I’d love to help you out. ☺️ My part-time job allows me a flexible schedule, so I’m available Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 11 AM - 10 PM to drop in and check on your pet or walk them! I can also stop by between 7 and 10 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays, if needed. I am comfortable walking big dogs and small dogs (a harness for heavy pullers is ideal, but not required). I will make sure they stay well-hydrated, happy, and cool. Crating should not be a problem as long as there are treats, but please let me know your dog’s specific needs and I will adapt to them!
“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!”
“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 ❤️💜”
“Constance was professional and very descriptive in her messages. She took great pictures of my cat, even if he wouldn’t let her pet him ? You can tell she really cares about animals and I highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs. I got my dog in college and have been dedicated to his care no matter what. Through moves and full time jobs, he has always been #1. He is a senior now and needs a little extra attention in regards to mobility, so I am comfortable with that. When he was younger he had BOUNDLESS energy as well and was eager to please. I’ve seen both sides and love them and all the traits in between Pet care is a 24/7 deal. They give us unconditional love so we should always be dedicating ourselves to the same. Daily walks, exercise and for sniffing are both beneficial and also just someone to sit by and patrol the neighborhood I care for pets how their owners would because that’s what will make the dog the most comfortable with a new person in their environment. I will always follow the clients routines and expectations
“Michelle exceeded our expectations. She cared for our cat Gracie as if she were hers. She was prompt with her visits and feedback/updates. We will be requesting her again without question!”

“Joe and Laurie were awesome with our German Shepard. They provided lots of exercise (walks and playing ball in their backyard) and TLC. They also provided several photos during the day. I highly recommend them to other dog owners.”
“Parisa is one of the nicest and most caring people I’ve met. In fact, I just met her and I could tell this instantly. I definitely trust that she provided my pup with the best and most loving care. I will 100% be using her again. Thanks again, Parisa!”
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: I've taken care of my family dog for 6 years, and I also was entrusted with my friends and family's dogs since I was 9. Currently, I am doing volunteer work and shadowing physicians as I am home for the summer from college. I am available majority of the week and weekends. I make sure to let our animals have their separate spaces for when they are in need of a rest. They also have fulltime access to food and water, and I have a fenced in yard with enough room to run around. In a client's home I will make sure your pet has food, water, and a clean place to go to the bathroom. I will ensure they are mentally stimulated with plenty of play time and cuddle time.
“My dog has such a great time when she’s here!! She gets all of her energy out and gets treated great! I love seeing my dog’s pictures at the end of the play date. Katie is the best!”
“Ann and Jason, Thanks for taking care of Baxter on 6/9. I'm grateful for your help and glad he got along well with everyone! I'll be in touch with future bookings! Warren Iulg”
“Michael was great! He asked questions to know Rosie better. He kept in touch with us before her daycare date. During her stay he kept us up to date & sent pictures. We would definitely recommend them & would schedule with them again if we visit the area. It was a perfect situation for our Rosie! Thanks, Michael!”
About: Worked as a vet assistant for 3 years at a vet office, medically caring for pets and assisting in surgery’s. Then worked for another 3 years at a doggy daycare, interacting and monitoring dogs or caring for the ones that were boarding. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I walk 3-5 miles a day, and would love to take your pup along with me. I currently don’t have a dog of my own, but kids that would love to have one to play with for a day or two. I have a large yard and live on a dead end street. I am always walking to get my miles in or outside with my kids.
“1st time having daycare with Whitley and I couldn’t be happier or more comfortable with my girls enjoying their day. Great photos and videos shared through the day and they both slept all the way home in the car- perfect!”
“We were very nervous about our pups first doggy daycare experience. Arlissa took him in and he had an absolute blast. We we be using her again for our daycare and boarding needs!”
“As a first time user of Rover we were a little nervous but Kristin was great answering our questions and caring for our puppy for the day. He went on multiple walks, the photos were nice, and knowing he was with people and not by himself for the day was the best. He slept like a baby that night too which we appreciated! Thank you!!”
About: Hi my name is Patrice. I'm a veterinary technician who loves being with animals even outside of my normal work day. If I could I would adopt a million pets but unfortunately that's not an option. I take pride in being able to help care for pets outside of my own. There's nothing more fulfilling than being able to play with fur babies when the owners cannot do so because of work. I am able to provide exercise time, medication administration, ear cleaning, and basic grooming. If you are in need of any of the above services feel free to reach out to me. I would love to get to know you and your fur babies and develop a life long bond. Pet care fits into my daily routine perfectly. I'm always with pets even in my dreams. Rather I am walking pets or meeting up for grooming appointments, I'm always with pets. I get a background of the pets home life and mimic that while they are with me. Routine works best with most pets. When you switch up what they are used to they do not do well.
About: I’ve been involved with dog rescue for many years. I worked with virtually every type of dog there is. From shy, timid to very high energy. I’ve had dogs that had aggression issues. I worked with dogs on leash training, housebreaking, and socialization. I am retired. I have nothing but time on my hands! I volunteer Thursday mornings at an equine therapy barn. But I will still have time to take care of animals on Thursdays. I am open to caring for dogs in my home. But! They have to be dog and cat friendly. I would prefer not to have younger dogs, only because my dogs are older and don’t like young dogs, jumping all over them. My dogs are very dog friendly though. My cats are very dog friendly. In fact, they prefer dogs over our cats!
“Aparajita was absolutely wonderful! This was a last-minute booking, and she was incredibly responsive, kind, and accommodating. She was so sweet with Dexter and clearly made him feel loved and comfortable right away. She kept us updated with so many fun photos and videos of Dexter playing and having a great time with her two bigger dogs, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear he was having an amazing time and was being cared for like one of her own. We are so grateful for her excellent communication, flexibility, and loving care. We highly recommend Aparajita to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”
“Catherine and Hubby are a wonderful team. They both love animals and they take such good care of my fur baby, just like she's their own. If you need care I highly recommend THEM!”

About: Doggies have been a fascination of mine for as long as I can remember. You could say I’m Dogs’ Best Friend! I’ve cared for pups as small as Yorkies and as big as Golden-doodles. Not only do I love dogs, I’ve been told that all dogs love me! Currently, I’m a Stay-at-Home Fur Mama. I own an in-house Wedding Planning Business so I have a plethora of time during the 9-5 to devote to your babies! We have a fenced in yard and a sweet 15-month doggo that loves making friends! Our neighborhood is perfect for walking our baby. I’d love to walk your dog in your neighborhood, at a park, or wherever your preference may be.
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m responsible for feeding, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure pets are safe and comfortable. I’m familiar with different temperaments and can handle both energetic and shy animals. I’m reliable, patient, and pay close attention to each pet’s needs. I am a teacher full time so in the summer I am fully open to watch your animals! I can do walking, staying overnight, check ins! I do not have a fenced in yard at my house so I am well versed in always having a leash on my dogs! I have watched a variety of dogs and cats as well!
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. As a current full time Remote Veterinary student, I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available 5 days week in the mornings and afternoons. When I care for your pet in your home my routine is to treat them like family and your home like a sacred space. I am more than willing to respect all boundaries put in place in order to do my job properly. I am a helicopter pet parent so your little guy or gal is safe with me.
About: I'm a freelance animation writer and dog lover who has had dogs his entire life and enjoys walking and sitting his friend's dogs. Now I'm looking to walk and sit even more dogs to supplement my writing income while also taking advantage of my extremely flexible schedule. I'm very patient, attentive and affectionate with dogs. When I walk, my attention is on the dogs (not my phone) and when I dog sit, I treat your home how I'd like my home to be treated if someone was staying there (i.e. not really wandering around and/or touching stuff, ha) and again, all attention is on the dog. Otherwise, I'll just be writing away on my scripts. I absolutely love dogs and have raise several from puppies. This is also an outlet for me after the passing of a beloved elderly dog that I had since she was a puppy. I'd be happy to take excellent care of your dogs.
About: I provide dependable, personalized care with the added benefit of pre-veterinary experience, giving me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and safety. I treat every dog like my own and focus on creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I'm a recent college graduate available full-time for the summer! I'd love to hang out with your beloved, four-legged friends during the week and/or weekends. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In my clients’ homes, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special instructions. I also make sure pets feel secure through patience, positive interaction, and plenty of supervision, while always respecting the client’s home and keeping communication open with regular updates and photos.
About: I have one dog who is often spoiled with hikes, snuffle mats, sniff work, yard activities, special treats and some basic training. I'd love to spoil your pup in the same ways while we all hang out! I walk my dog almost every day. And on days I can't I make sure we do extra indoor activities or play extra in the Yard, maybe go for an extra car ride. First, I follow any instructions given by dog parents. I have a fenced in yard. As long we don't have any escape artists, pets will be able to roam the yard freely. I like to make frequent potty trips and tried to keep pets entertained in some shape or way.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a cat and a 3 year old pit/cattle dog mix. I have owned multiple dogs over the years, including reactive dogs, which gave me hands on experience with different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I worked closely with a professional trainer in the past and gained a lot of confidence in handling and understanding dogs of all kinds. Because my entire family has dogs, I’m constantly around animals and genuinely love spending time caring for them. I understand that every pet is different and that some are energetic and social, while others need patience, structure, and a calm approach. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just having a comforting presence around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away! I currently work full time Monday-Friday from 7-4, however I am fully remote and my job is relatively flexible. Working from home makes life easy as I can take time on my lunch break to do a quick walk or drop in with your fur babies. I’m also available before 7am and after 4pm on weekdays and available on the weekends. I do get bank holidays off and a decent amount of PTO which allows even more flexibility 🙂 While I’d love to welcome every pet into my home, I have a reactive dog of my own, so I currently only offer care in clients’ homes through drop ins, walks, and house sitting. The safety and comfort of your pets and mine will always come first 💕
About: I have grown up having cats and dogs my whole life. I absolutely love taking care of them and giving them as much love as I can all the time. I have experience with walking mine and my friends dogs, and I've also volunteered with dogs and walked dogs from shelters. I currently work part time as a pet counselor at Petland where some of my responsibilities include helping take care of small animals and assisting the kennel technicians with the care of our puppies. I am newly married and am wanting to make some side money while working part time. I couldn't think of a better way to spend my free time than with dogs and cats and loving and caring for them. I am extremely flexible to help out, I was a previous college athlete and I'm very active throughout my day, I can help with dog walking, as well as looking after your pets. I am trustworthy and can guarantee I'll give your dogs/ cats plenty of kisses and cuddles. I love walks myself and love to take dogs on long walks. I can bathe them, brush them, feed them, and overall just play with them and give your dogs and cats lots of attention.
About: Hello I’m James! I’ve always loved dogs, and I know that they’re more than pets… they’re family. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your best friend. My dog Auggie, has taught me the value of patience, consistency, and making every dog feel safe and loved. Pet care is a big part of my life as I love walking my dog Auggie and playing with him as much as possible. Looking after a dog is something I enjoy and not just a job! I have a flexible schedule this summer which allows me to provide reliable walks, drop ins, and visits throughout the week.

About: I’ve had many pets over the years, and I know how special and important they are in our lives.

My children are adults now, so I am very flexible as far as scheduling goes, in order to meet your and your pet’s needs. I come to you! I will carry out your instructions in your pet’s own environment, and make sure they are safe and happy, keeping feedings in mind, as well as doors or gates that need to stay closed.
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: What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like they're part of my own family. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog's unique personality and routine.

“My dog Loki couldn’t have had a happier look on his face after his walk with Oli. Oli was very kind, understanding and handled our dog very well. Loki is not the easiest dog for a walk as everything needs to be his friend. Very professional service.”

“Layla was so well taken care of and Ann was great about sending updates and pics while we were away. It was such a peace of mind to know our pup was given lots of love and attention and was in a home instead of a kennel.”
“Absolutely perfect with my senior dog. Kept me updated on everything. Sent pictures when asked. And even smoothed over my overthinking of her stay. Nicole will make sure your family member is safe while you are away. Will be using her when needed in the future.”
“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!”
“I would definitely use Caitlin again as a place to board my dog Millie! Millie took to Caitlin at our first meet and greet, and acted like she belonged there. Caitlin sent multiple pictures and updates, and was very prompt answering any question I had. Millie came home a happy and healthy dog!”
“Porter absolutely loved his stay with Krystal and Ryan’s family. He ran right in to play with their dogs and although he was happy to see us when we returned, I think he was a bit sad to go. They created such a fun family environment for Porter and treated him as part of their family which I loved. We loved the photo and text updates. We will definitely use them again - I hope they are available every time we go out of town!!”
“Kathleen was great! My.dogs take a few medications and she is always great about giving them their medication. In addition, she sent me pictures of my dogs and played with them every day!”
“Jennifer took excellent care of Ruby over the weekend. Ruby had the chance to play with another dog and she enjoyed it very much. I would highly recommend Jennifer to take care of your fur babies!”
“Katie and her incredible roommate were truly amazing! This was my first time using Rover, and it couldn’t have been a better experience. I received updates and photos all weekend long, and it was clear that Nellie was having the time of her life—which gave me so much peace of mind. Katie has a fantastic setup with both turf and grass play areas, plus water bowls in every space to keep pups comfortable. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend—thank you again!”
“We had a last-minute need for a sitter, and Rachel and Nick did a great job of accommodating and taking care of Olive. We got nice daily updates and were confident that she was doing well. And when we were running late in getting back into town, they were able to help with a late schedule change to extend their sitting. We were very happy with the overall service and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”
“Simba had a great first night stay with Kiersten! He got along well with her 2 dogs and came hope nice and tired! Kiersten is super! She asked lots of questions and made sure she knew how Simba was and made sure I was comfortable with what she had planned while Simba was there. She sent pics throughout the day and treated him like her own! Simba will be going back next week for a longer stay as I know he will be happy at Kiersten’s!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog for a trip let alone using Rover. Aparajita understood and helped assure me my precious boy would be safe and happy with her. I got lucky finding someone so competent with guardian breeds...and with people.”
“Belem is the best!! She vistes my baby while we traveled… every day she posted pictures and kept me informed how she was doing. I would definitively recommend Belem! Plata and I love her!”
“Eric is an outstanding human being to care for your your furry best friend. We booked him last minute for a few days to settle in to our new apartment because our dog was showing signs of anxiety and lack of attention. Eric truly changed Bubs to his goofy happy self again and we can't be any happier. He was very responsive and will send all the updates to put you at comfort while your pet is in care of him! Highly recommend to book his services you won't be sorry. ?”
