“Gina was great at taking great care of Mimi. She sent numerous updates and photos of Mimi during their daily activities. Gina was attentive to Mimi's needs. Our dog was well cared for. We would definitely have Gina dog sit our dog in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dog sitter.”

“Danielle was so caring and attentive to my senior dog's needs. My dog must have liked her because she even went back to say bye before getting in the car to leave which is in contrast to her behavior with other people we have had watch her in the past. I will definitely request Danielle first for future pet care needs.”


“Samantha and Ian took wonderful care of our pups while we were on vacation for a week. They sent many updates and photos while we were away. Our dogs didn't want to come home I don't think! We have tried many dog sitters and will only be using Samantha and Ian from here out!”

“Our sitter was amazing! We have a high energy stubborn pup and Katie and her family handled her extremely well!! We got lots of updates and photos while we were away so we knew our dog was in good hands. We’ll definitely be reaching out again the next time we need a sitter.”

“Katherine was an amazing sitter! She made sure to send updates on how my cat was doing as well as pictures and she responded very quickly if I had any questions. Will definitely be rebooking !”

“Excellent sitter. Kaitlin provided pictures throughout our dogs stay, and was quick with her replies to any question I might have. She has a wonderful fenced in yard. Will surely use her services again.”
“Our dog raced to the front door remembering her stay with Jena and Nick from last year. She remained happy and was able to stick to her normal routines while there. Jena sent pictures and updates regularly and was good about reporting any concerns or issues such as the air quality preventing long walks. They were genuinely concerned about Liz’s well being which is so important to us. Our pet was well cared for, and we plan to use them any time we need a dog sitter. We find them to be reliable, caring, and responsible and know Liz is in good hands while we are away.”

“Rocky very much enjoyed his stay. Loved playing with the other dogs. Got pictures and videos of him having a great time! Would definitely recommend Nick and Marissa for a safe environment. Will definitely use them again”

“Ms. Chelsea demonstrated exceptional pet-sitting services during the three nights she cared for our dog, Koa. Her communication was commendable, as she consistently provided updates on Koa's well-being and shared numerous photographs. Furthermore, she exceeded our expectations by actively engaging in training sessions with Koa. We highly recommend her services and will undoubtedly entrust her with Koa's care in the future.”

“Amanda always does an amazing job with our Sophie. Sophie loves Amanda and her children! Thank you for the wonderful care and attention to details to make stay comfortable and loving! We are extremely lucky have you care for our Sophie!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I’m truly passionate about. I have lifelong experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with special needs, including administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I understand that every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with plenty of attention, I’m happy to provide the care they need. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your best friend is in loving, reliable hands. 🕐 Flexible & Open Availability! 🐾 I have open availability throughout the week, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets! Whether your pup needs overnight care, a midday walk, a drop-in visit, or some extra playtime and companionship, I’m here to help. 🐶❤️ My flexible schedule means your pets can receive individualized care, attention, exercise, and plenty of love while you’re at work, traveling, or simply need an extra hand. Your pup will stay on a peaceful farm surrounded by nature and friendly goats, with plenty of room to relax, play, and enjoy their home-away-from-home experience! 🐐🌿 They’ll have access to a spacious, air-conditioned indoor play area as well as a fully fenced outdoor space for safe play and exercise.
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and do my very best to treat them like family. I make sure they eat, have adequate potty time, and recreation time. I will be sure to take care of your pet as if they were with you. I am currently working, but have plenty of time to care for pets. They will have plenty of time 1 on 1 with their needs met. I have a yard and can give your dog access to exercise or take them on walks at parks. I do my best to follow your home schedule as much as possible to ensure they will be still on that schedule when you return home.

“Our dog had a great stay with Erin! We received consistent updates with pictures. Erin was flexible with arranging a meet and greet beforehand. We will definitely be reaching out to Erin again when we need someone to watch our dog!”

“Highly recommend Stacey for dog boarding. We kept our pup there for 4-5 days recently. Stacey was very communicative as well as flexible wrt drop-off and pick-up times. They have a lot of open grounds at the property and long leads so that dogs can run around. I think my beagle pup had a lot of fun being outdoors at Stacey’s”

“Christi was fantastic! We were worried about leaving our senior dog for a couple nights during our vacation and Christi had a very warm and welcoming home for our girl. She fell in love with them and wasn’t stressed like she would have been at a dog kennel. I would recommend her over and over again and will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Amber is the best! She made sure my sweet baby was well taken care of! She has great communication and is always willing to do the best she can for your furry friends! I will definitely be booking her for my next trip!”


About: My gram raised me from a young age and she was definitely the “crazy cat lady” of our family she had at least 30 different cats (not all at once) over the years from rescuing. So I have experience from kittens to seniors. I would be totally happy to watch over you feline babies too!

About: While I’ve mostly owned dogs over the years, watching over friends’ and neighbors’ cats have given me experience and taught me how to approach and handle cats (especially in comparison to dogs). I’ve even successfully administered shots to a neighbor’s diabetic cat with little to no fuss!

“Rhianna did an amazing job! She took great care of my kitty! She followed all of the instructions I gave her, provided pics of my pet to put me at ease, communicated with me throughout the process/during the visit, was very flexible schedule wise, and respected my home. I highly recommend her.”


About: I’ve had cats for about seven years now, and I currently have five of my own, so I’m very comfortable with all the little things that come with taking care of cats. I clean their litter boxes, feed them, play with them, give them plenty of attention, and honestly probably give them more attention than they need. 😂 I even sleep with them every night. I’ve also had experience with cats that need extra care. One of my cats was blind, deaf, FIV positive, and had six toes, so I’m very comfortable being patient and paying close attention to a cat’s individual needs. I’ve also cared for a cat who needed a specific diet, had to be hand-fed, and needed to be fed with a syringe. Because of my own cats, I’m used to noticing their different personalities, routines, and behaviors and knowing when something seems off. I genuinely love cats and would treat your cat with the same care and attention I give my own.
About: I am looking to offer the unique opportunity to allow people to have their pets cared for by someone who is truly qualified. My personal goal is to put all profits made on Rover towards my student loans. I currently work full-time with a four day schedule each week and the days I'm off rotate, if you know a specific time you're going away, please reach out to me at least 12 weeks in advance and I can try to accommodate my work schedule. I will watch your pets the entire time. I'm with them, I will either keep them within their fenced in yard or on a leash if not in their own yard at all times.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since a little girl. I’ve trained 2 medical service dogs so far! I’m currently learning more about specialty training. I have puppy training experience, crate training, leash training, senior care, and medication management. I’m a graphic designer and I work from home. I rarely leave the house! That means I have all the time for your fur baby! I have a large fenced back yard, and a garage that is set up as a dog hang out spot with access to water & shade from the sun! I have one very friendly 11 month old German shepherd mix who loves to play & is crate trained. I have the backyard & garage on camera, but I keep an eye on my dog regardless. I either work on my laptop from the back window, or outside! We also take walks around the neighborhood. I also have a small doggy pool! The fence is over 6 foot & secured with privacy lining.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and even horses, including puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I’m a college student with classes during the day and am typically available after 6 PM on weekdays. I’m always off on Fridays and most Saturdays and Sundays, giving me flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and extended care. A couple of times a month I do have a brief evening lab, but I always communicate in advance to ensure your pet’s routine is never disrupted. I care for pets by following their routine as closely as possible. I respect clients’ homes, follow all instructions carefully, and keep owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are well cared for.
“Paige was an outstanding sitter for Princess, and a very separation anxiety, Panache. She made sure that his food was upstairs under my bed, so that he could access it. It does take her awhile to answer texts from me, but her care of my pets and home was excellent.”

About: I genuinely love dogs and will give them the same care and attention I'd want for my own pet. My goal is to make them feel at home and keep their routine as normal as possible I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love throughout their stay! I can do whatever is easiest for you! I treat them like they're my own! They get plenty of food and water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also stick to whatever routine or special instructions the owner gives me.
About: Pets are family, and they deserve to be treated like family. I have doggy sat for a family friend for 3yrs, Zoe, and Zarley. They go out 4 to 5 times a day, they get treats for going boo boo outside. We run around the apartment and play as much as my bones will let me. I am able to brush the furbabies every day, and multiple times a day if needed. I do talk to them like they can answer me…..😂😂. Animals understand more than we think they do. I love animals so much. I wish I could get one for me. But at this time, I am unable to afford one. I will not get any animal that I know I can’t pay for what they need. I was working up until 09/2025. I got hurt at work, and I’m unable to return. I am available 24/7 now. I have plenty of time to give ALL of my time to furbabies now. I have a full time job working midnights. I get off at 7am, but don’t usually go to sleep till around 10am. I do not work Friday nights. My part time job is just Mon., we’d., and Fri, from 9am to 1pm. I have every other weekend off. I always put fur babies first in my home. I play with them as often as I can. They are allowed on the furniture and bed. No matter what I am doing, I will stop to take them out, or play with them. I DO NOT give for babies ppl food, their little digestive system mite not be able to handle it. If there is something extra that you say they need, and you don’t have, I will buy it for them. I remove any and everything off the floors, so they cannot get in it. If there is a special diet that they have, I will just need written instructions on how to prepare it.

About: Loving your pets as much as my own. I have owned 4 cats a one time. I have taken care of others while they were away playing,litter changing,feeding and giving medication. Nothing to big or small I am willing to do to make sure your animal is excellently taken care of.

“Brook-lynn is great to Max. He's always so excited after a stop in visit with her. She communicates well and always sends me photos. I'd high recommend letting her take care of your fur baby!”

“Tabatha was a blessing! I felt at ease while on vacation with Tabatha caring for our pets. From what I can tell she kept them on their toes and probably did a better job then I would do! I never expected so many pictures of them either playing, eating, or just being goofy. Would definitely recommend and hope she's available next time!”

“Gina was amazing! She responded very quickly to a last minute reservation. She kept consistent communication and even cared for my pup when she felt a little sick from travel. They got plenty of exercise and went for some good walks. Also, the location is perfect for watching dogs. There is plenty of woods area, the golf course, and back roads to go on walks. Highly recommend Gina!”


About: Hello, To all animal parents. You will have not to worry as your animal will be having a blast while in my care. Wheather it's walks overnight stays in my home or yours or just a check in my love will show no bounds. I will call txt or face time when ever you need so that you are comfortable with being away. Thank you for taking the time considering me as the one who will be taking care of your animals. I have stayed the weekend caring for a medium sized dog as well as two indoor/outdoor cats. I faced timed and texted the animal mom frequently over the weekend so she felt better while away from her children(1 dog 2 cats). Thank you and have a great day! I am currently a stay at home mom so your fur babies will never be alone. I am available for any and all of your animals needs. I have a large back yard and different tie out spots for the dogs to be safe. One friendly large dog and an autistic almost 6 year old daughter starting kindergarten. So I will mostly be me and the dogs.
“Mary was great! My puppy was a little apprehensive at first but by the end of the day settled right in. She had great communication and sent a few photos during the day and kept me updated to ease my anxiety.”


“I hate to repeat myself, but I can't say enough great things about Briana. She goes above and beyond in every way each time Libbie visits. During the stay, I receive updates with cute photos and videos about how she is doing. It is obvious my dog is genuinely loved. Her assistant, Duke, is a gentle, big boy. Libbie loves hanging with him. He seems to know exactly what play style to provide. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to book with Briana. If you are looking for someone who treats your dog like family, look no further. BUT know I will be super upset if you take my next booking spot!!”

“Sherri was the absolute BEST with my Shih-Tzu Izzy. We did a meet and greet 1st which was so nice to do prior to just dropping Izzy off. Sherri texted me updates with pics of Izzy & even took her for a walk! I felt extremely comfortable leaving Izzy in Sheri’s care. I could tell how much Izzy enjoyed herself being there and we will definitely be back!! 😊”
“My friend and my three pooches were well taken care of while we went out to breakfast and went to a musical. Katherine sent us photos, so we knew the kids were all right. Thank you for taking such good care of them.”


About: Hi! I just moved to Butler about a year ago and looking to get back into Rover! I did it for about a year or two in Missouri. I have an electric fence but I ONLY would use the collar with parents permission. If not, I will walk them out or put them on a lead. I’ve always taken care of dogs since forever basically lol I’ve always had a dog throughout my life and I currently have 2 friendly fur babies myself. Ninno-boxer and Skye-lab mix. I have had mostly bigger dogs, like boxers labs golden retrievers pit bulls and border collies. I can bathe if needed with your permission and they’re comfort level. My dogs are on flea and tick shots they get once a month. I work from home so I’m always here. Your baby will rarely be alone and if so, it’s only to run to get groceries and occasional times out. I do not have a fenced yard, but I have half an acre for them to run around as they please and a few dog beds for their comfort. I have two dogs that can provide tons of fun and exercise, but with your permission we can also go for walks/runs.
About: I have had pets ever since I was a small child: dogs, cats, hamster, gerbils, chinchilla, parakeet, turtles, even a toad that we saved from a freezing winter. We took care of it till spring and then released it. I love animals of all types. Almost, I'm not babysitting your tarantula or pet snake. My dog and cat are loved as if they were my children and your dog will be treated this way as well. We enjoy taking walks and car rides to the dog park in nice days. I never allow my dog outside without me. I am semi-retired and I work from home painting and repairing furniture and working on various crafts. Therefore I am very flexible with my time. I live in a decent sized 2 story home with a large back yard. It is not fenced all the way so my dog is always on a cable or leash. We live to go for walks and to the dog park for extra exercise. My dog is a husky mix and is almost 4 years old. She loves dogs of all sizes.
About: Hi everyone! Our names are Karen and Chad and we’ve always had a love for dogs since childhood. The thought of caring or rescuing a dog has always been top of our minds. When we got married, we adopted a greyhound racer. We had him for 7 years and lost him unfortunately due to cancer. Since we lost him, we’ve wanted to continue helping/caring for dogs and can’t think of a better way then helping others with their fur animals. We know the working world doesn’t always accommodate balancing out caring for our fur friends and work and would love to help with that! Please chose us to care for your fur friends whether it’s a walk or a overnight stay in our home! We will treat them with the utmost love and care! We are available daily as Chad stays at home weekly. Karen is available to help out on weekends. Please let us know how we can help! We have a nice back yard but do not currently have a fence (at this time). We can walk the dogs in our backyard with a leash and or take them to nearby parks. We do have a dog bed and dog water/food bowels with plenty of space in our 2200 sq.ft home.
“Evan and Courtney took great care of our dog when she was with them for a day. Our dog spent the day running around with Murphy and came home tired and ready to nap 😃 we highly recommend them for anyone seeking pet care services!”


“Erin was very responsive. I love that she sends update photos of Litte Hay. She has a bigger dog that get along so well with Little Hay, which is a plus since my little girl loves meeting new friends. Will definitely rebook wirh Erin again.”

“Honestly I couldn't ask for more. My pup came from a shelter with an unclear history. I found a sitter who is hitting every goal I looked for. She truly cares for my girl and I couldn't ask for more.”


“Absolutely thrilled with all of the pictures and texts. So much anxiety to leave your baby for an extended period of time but so relieved to have found Jeannine! Tucker can’t wait to go back!”

About: I have been caring for pets my whole life. I have always had my own pets as well so I understand all of the responsibilities that go into caring for an animal. I love dogs and have experience working with them both small and large, ranging in ages from puppy to elderly. I love helping them get their daily exercise and helping them learn new tricks using positive reinforcement. I love going outside with them and allowing them to either run or even play a good game of fetch. I am also currently a cat mom myself so I also am capable of caring for cats as well. I realize that cats are both very independent but at the same time require affection as well. Your pet will be taken care of and loved as if it were my own.

“Amber was a great help with our 2 dogs. She was very accommodating and even was able to be flexible with times the one day as we needed to move the original request. Thank you Amber for taking good care of Dewey and Harper.”

About: Hi! My name is Cassidy. I have been watching dogs for many years! I started in high school and now own my own dog, Mako! He is a rescue who I love dearly! I have watched all types of animals, from fish to horses! I am a senior at Slippery Rock University, and I run our Western Equestrian Team! I truly love animals and want to help others with theirs! I am a full-time student, but I have many open times where I am able to commit to watching your animals! I am done with classes every day by 11 am and have time available before that as well to make sure your pets are well taken care of! I own my own dog, Mako, whom I have time for each and every day to make sure he gets the best care! Each day, I ensure my dog gets the care he needs! He goes to the dog park every morning as well as walks daily when the weather cooperates! I make sure to add snuggle time as well, where he gets to sit with me while I complete any homework throughout the day!

About: I’ve had animals in my life pretty much since I was born, so taking care of pets has always been a normal part of my life. I grew up with dogs and have been feeding them, walking them, bathing them, playing with them, and taking care of them on my own for as long as I can remember. I also regularly take care of my neighbors’ pets when they’re on vacation or working long hours, and I’ve watched friends’ pets for longer periods of time, including caring for a dog while they were away in Mexico for a week. I currently have five cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with cats too! I clean their litter, feed them, play with them, keep them entertained, and make sure they get plenty of attention. I also had a cat who was both blind and deaf, so I have some experience caring for a pet with special needs and understand that they may need extra patience, attention, and adjustments to their normal routine. I think what sets me apart is that I genuinely love animals and have spent my whole life around them. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, including pets who may need a little extra care, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and give them the same love and attention they’re used to while their owners are away. My work schedule changes from week to week, but I’m very flexible and happy to work around your pet’s routine. I’m completely free all day on Mondays, and on the days I do work, my shifts are usually around 8 hours. I’m available to walk, feed, play with, and care for your pet before and after work. Since my schedule varies weekly, the best way to know my exact availability is to reach out to me with the dates you need. I’m happy to work with you to find a time that works best for both you and your pet! I have two homes where I can care for pets, so I can offer a little flexibility depending on what works best for you and your pet. My Slippery Rock house is pet-free, so dogs and cats are both welcome there! We have a large yard where I can take dogs outside to play and get some exercise, and I can also take them on walks. There are other girls living in the house, but I would be the one responsible for your pet’s care. My Wexford home is an apartment where I have my five cats. All of my cats are vaccinated, healthy, and used to being around other cats, so cats are welcome there as well. I’m not able to have dogs at my Wexford home. I always want pets to feel safe and comfortable, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you have for feeding, walks, medications, or anything else they need.
About: 🐾❤️. Animals are family and I will welcome yours with open arms! I have had dogs since I can remember and currently have a loving American Bully pup, 7 years old, who enjoys making new fur friends! Her name is Zoe. I work from home full-time and take several walks a day. Two kids & a Non-smoking household. We live on a quiet gravel lane, off the beaten path with lots of safe places to explore! I only take one dog at a time so that they will be the center of attention. I always offer a meet and greet so that you can check out your pup’s vacation spot and they can play with Zoe while I get all of the details to ensure the most comfortable stay. Whether being active, going for walks, playing fetch, or enjoying quiet comforting snuggles - your fur baby will feel very welcome to the pack! There will be no shortage of check-ins, pictures, & videos throughout the stay (per your preference). We also have a dog washing station as well for a bath add on! I have a flexible schedule which allows for walks, playtime, and cuddles. Working from home allows me to give full attention for your fur baby. We are a dog-loving family, and Zoe is the official greeting committee! She loves playing with new friends and lazy days in the sun. We have room to crate your dog as needed as too , if that’s your preference or comfort level.
About: I am very flexible with hours. I am an active person and happy to play with your pet and walk them as much as needed. I grew up in the cold, so weather doesn't bother me walking or driving. I also am willing to work with your hours and do what is best for your pet. I also am always happy to send pictures and check in so you know they are living your best life. I can be flexible but I am a morning person so early walks are okay with me. I can also drop in easily through the day with little issue. I grew up with large dogs (lover (100lbs) and 2 cats, and am the current owner of a Bernese Mountain dog who I love. I love all animals but tend to lean to bigger dogs. I like cats butdon't currently own one due to my husband. I am newer to rover but have spent a lot of time caring for my own pets but also dog sitting for others in their homes over the last 7 years.
About: I’ve few up with cars and dogs so I know very well how to take care of them. I know how to work with animals and be understanding with them i have classes every other day for a few hours then i’m free. I go to the gym in the morning then i am on my way I brush them at least once a week(depending on fur type) and feed and water them at set times during the day. They also get treats so often just for fun
“Isabelle’s love of animals shines thru her smile. My sugar loves her. They had a wonderful tail wagging walk together. It gave me time that I needed and I know sugar was getting special time with a special friend. I will schedule more time with Izzy in the future!”

“Rhianna was fantastic. Libbie looked forward to her afternoon walks while we were in town. She was prompt, provided great communication, and took some of the best animated pics of Libbie! I plan to connect with her again next time I am back in town.”

About: I am looking to offer the unique opportunity to allow people to have their pets cared for by someone who is truly qualified. My personal goal is to put all profits made on Rover towards my student loans. I currently work full-time with a four day schedule each week and the days I'm off rotate, if you know a specific time you're going away, please reach out to me at least 12 weeks in advance and I can try to accommodate my work schedule.

About: hi!! i’m paige & i treat every pet like they’re my own 🤍 i’ve cared for dogs of all sizes & personalities and i honestly love getting to know each one. whether they’re super high energy, a rescue, or more of a chill senior, i make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. i know how hard it can be leaving your pet, so i always send regular updates + pics so you don’t have to worry or wonder how they’re doing. people always tell me how relaxed their pets are with me and how much peace of mind they have, which means everything to me. i’m also really respectful of your home & always try to leave things just as clean (or better) than i found them. i tend to go a little above and beyond because that’s just how i am. my goal is simple: happy pets & stress-free owners :) this is my full time job so i’m pretty flexible and update my availability on here daily! i have two dogs and two cats at home and am familiar with daily care for them. i do whatever is necessary by your standards to make sure they have the most accurate experience just as if mom and dad were home with them!
About: Pets are family, and they deserve to be treated like family. I have doggy sat for a family friend for 3yrs, Zoe, and Zarley. They go out 4 to 5 times a day, they get treats for going boo boo outside. We run around the apartment and play as much as my bones will let me. I am able to brush the furbabies every day, and multiple times a day if needed. I do talk to them like they can answer me…..😂😂. Animals understand more than we think they do. I love animals so much. I wish I could get one for me. But at this time, I am unable to afford one. I will not get any animal that I know I can’t pay for what they need. I was working up until 09/2025. I got hurt at work, and I’m unable to return. I am available 24/7 now. I have plenty of time to give ALL of my time to furbabies now. I have a full time job working midnights. I get off at 7am, but don’t usually go to sleep till around 10am. I do not work Friday nights. My part time job is just Mon., we’d., and Fri, from 9am to 1pm. I have every other weekend off. I always put fur babies first in my home. I play with them as often as I can. They are allowed on the furniture and bed. No matter what I am doing, I will stop to take them out, or play with them. I DO NOT give for babies ppl food, their little digestive system mite not be able to handle it. If there is something extra that you say they need, and you don’t have, I will buy it for them. I remove any and everything off the floors, so they cannot get in it. If there is a special diet that they have, I will just need written instructions on how to prepare it.

About: I genuinely love dogs and will give them the same care and attention I'd want for my own pet. My goal is to make them feel at home and keep their routine as normal as possible I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love throughout their stay! I can do whatever is easiest for you! I treat them like they're my own! They get plenty of food and water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also stick to whatever routine or special instructions the owner gives me.

About: Hello, To all animal parents. You will have not to worry as your animal will be having a blast while in my care. Wheather it's walks overnight stays in my home or yours or just a check in my love will show no bounds. I will call txt or face time when ever you need so that you are comfortable with being away. Thank you for taking the time considering me as the one who will be taking care of your animals. I have stayed the weekend caring for a medium sized dog as well as two indoor/outdoor cats. I faced timed and texted the animal mom frequently over the weekend so she felt better while away from her children(1 dog 2 cats). Thank you and have a great day! I am currently a stay at home mom so your fur babies will never be alone. I am available for any and all of your animals needs. I have a large back yard and different tie out spots for the dogs to be safe. One friendly large dog and an autistic almost 6 year old daughter starting kindergarten. So I will mostly be me and the dogs.

“I've booked with Drew several times since 2022 and I have always felt my 2 dogs were in excellent hands. She is excellent communicating with me, on time and I know my dogs are in good hands. It was a relief when I had unexpectedly needed someone to walk Caddo and Tasha and found Drew was available. She's my go-to sitter!”

About: i have taken care of animals all my life from dogs, cats, lizards, and birds i will make your animal feel loved just like if it was my own pet im currently working part time at a dog grooming place so im not busy so i have time to walk and take care of your animals when needed. i have a huge yard for my six dogs where we go out when it’s nice out to play ball and run to get some energy out of them and we have a separate room for their crates so when we leave we put them in crates so they don’t get into anything

About: Hello! My name is Tabatha Garman, I am the sole owner and operator of Special Paws Pet Care and a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT). As a veterinary technician, I play the nurse role of the veterinary team. I graduated from Kent State University with my Associate's degree in Veterinary Technology in May of 2021 and am currently pursuing my Bachelor's of Integrated Studies focused in animal behavior. While in school for my technician license, I gained various hands-on skills with a variety of animals, from dogs and cats to birds, horses, snakes, and much more. Outside of school, I have trained at numerous veterinary hospitals and gained vital experience in CPR and emergency response. My personal experience caring for animals expands far beyond my education and career, as I have cared for my own, family's, and friend's pets my entire life. As previously mentioned, I have a vast range of experience with different species from small pocket pets and reptiles to large and farm animals. I love working with nearly any species, especially pigs and cows! My medication administration skills are just as vast, including giving various types of injections and fluids, oral pill and liquid administration, topical applications, etc. Any pets with special needs are assured to be taken care of! Specializing in animal behavior, those with unique personalities or who are a bit grumpy or naturally prefer alone time are some of my favorite to work with. I love working to understand them and win them over and am happy to try to work with any type of disposition or behavioral challenges. No job is too big or small. Whether you have a pet that needs daily medication, help getting around, and extra special care, or just want to feel comforted knowing that your furry family member is in great hands, I am happy to care for any and all of them. I am currently dedicating my time to in-home pet care while going to school full-time online, so I am free to fit your pet into my schedule however you may need. While I do personalize my schedule to fit your pet specifically, my typical day is scheduled like this and changed as needed, just to give you a better idea of your pet's time with me: When I arrive, I always spend time making sure your pet is happy, comfortable, and has everything they need. When staying with them overnight, I will keep them company until morning, make sure they have everything they need and get some pets or playtime in, then I will leave as needed to tend to any other appointments, making sure to return to check-in and spend time with them at minimum every 3-4 hours, unless more frequently is needed. Whether you just need a daily check in and play time for your cat while you're away, or if you need someone to take your pup out every couple of hours along with walks and lots of play time, or even if you have an older pup who can't really spend time alone at all, we can definitely make a plan to suit your family purrr-fectly. Your pet's safety is always my top priority. Whether at home, in the car, at the vet, out for a walk, or at the park, I am always extremely diligent to make sure your pet stays safe and sound. I always use doggy seatbelts or enclosures when driving, reflective strips and flashlights at night, ramps and manual assistance for mobility-challenged pups, predator-deterrent to protect them from harm, and vet-approved chews or boredom busters to make sure your pup is happier and healthier when you arrive back home. Out of an abundance of caution, I typically do not have pets I'm watching interact with other pets I'm unfamiliar with (ie: no communal dog parks). In the case that anything does happen while I am with them, I am trained on the safest and most effective way to stop a dog fight, as well as being trained in CPR, emergency triage and response, and homeostatic stabilization. I also always have a list of the nearest emergency hospitals on hand should they ever be needed. I strive to follow all pet-parent's wants and needs for their pets, including whatever training or rules you may have for your pet while they are in my care (crating, treats, toys, etc). If there are any additional safety measures you would like to discuss, just let me know!

We would definitely have Gina dog sit our dog in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dog sitter.”

“Danielle was so caring and attentive to my senior dog's needs. My dog must have liked her because she even went back to say bye before getting in the car to leave which is in contrast to her behavior with other people we have had watch her in the past. I will definitely request Danielle first for future pet care needs.”


“Samantha and Ian took wonderful care of our pups while we were on vacation for a week. They sent many updates and photos while we were away. Our dogs didn't want to come home I don't think! We have tried many dog sitters and will only be using Samantha and Ian from here out!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I’m truly passionate about. I have lifelong experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with special needs, including administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I understand that every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with plenty of attention, I’m happy to provide the care they need. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your best friend is in loving, reliable hands. 🕐 Flexible & Open Availability! 🐾 I have open availability throughout the week, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets! Whether your pup needs overnight care, a midday walk, a drop-in visit, or some extra playtime and companionship, I’m here to help. 🐶❤️ My flexible schedule means your pets can receive individualized care, attention, exercise, and plenty of love while you’re at work, traveling, or simply need an extra hand. Your pup will stay on a peaceful farm surrounded by nature and friendly goats, with plenty of room to relax, play, and enjoy their home-away-from-home experience! 🐐🌿 They’ll have access to a spacious, air-conditioned indoor play area as well as a fully fenced outdoor space for safe play and exercise.

“Our dog had a great stay with Erin! We received consistent updates with pictures. Erin was flexible with arranging a meet and greet beforehand. We will definitely be reaching out to Erin again when we need someone to watch our dog!”

“Highly recommend Stacey for dog boarding. We kept our pup there for 4-5 days recently. Stacey was very communicative as well as flexible wrt drop-off and pick-up times. They have a lot of open grounds at the property and long leads so that dogs can run around. I think my beagle pup had a lot of fun being outdoors at Stacey’s”

“Christi was fantastic! We were worried about leaving our senior dog for a couple nights during our vacation and Christi had a very warm and welcoming home for our girl. She fell in love with them and wasn’t stressed like she would have been at a dog kennel. I would recommend her over and over again and will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Margaret and her husband were amazing with Maverick. You can tell they are really knowledgeable and love animals. She sent regular updates with pics. Just a short trip right off of I79 to get to her house that has a big fenced in yard. I felt completely safe leaving my pup there. Will definitely be using her again!”


About: For the past seven years, I had the privilege of sharing my life with my dog, Agatha, whom I adopted when she was around seven years old. She recently passed away at an estimated 14 years old after battling cancer. Caring for Agatha, especially during the last few months of her life, taught me patience, compassion, and how to meet a dog exactly where they are. As she got older, she needed more hands-on support. Whether it was helping her stand, carrying her when her body wouldn't cooperate (all 55 pounds of her!), or hand-feeding her because that's how she was most comfortable, I learned that every dog has unique needs and deserves care that respects their personality. Agatha was fiercely independent, so I always tried to give her as much dignity and choice as possible while making sure she felt safe and loved. While I'm not ready to adopt another dog just yet, I truly miss having one in my life. That's what brought me to Rover. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet, whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or simply having a calm companion nearby. I live in an apartment with easy access to outdoor walking paths, sidewalks, and a nearby dog park, making it easy to provide plenty of exercise, fresh air, and opportunities to explore. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in loving hands. I own a local fitness studio, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. Most weekdays, I'm available between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for walks, drop-in visits, or spending quality time with pets. My mornings typically begin around 8:00 a.m., and I'm at my studio from approximately 9:00–11:00 a.m. and again from 4:00–7:00 p.m. Because I have flexibility throughout the day, I can provide regular potty breaks, exercise, meals, and companionship. Whether your pet enjoys an active walk, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they receive attentive, personalized care while you're away. I know that every pet is different, so my first priority is getting to know your dog's routine, personality, and any special needs before their stay or visit. I'll follow your instructions closely, whether that's feeding schedules, medications, favorite walking routes, or little routines that help your pet feel comfortable. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm environment with plenty of attention, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and a comfortable place to rest. I live in an apartment with easy access to sidewalks, green space, and a nearby dog park for dogs who enjoy socializing (only with your permission). If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own while keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Above all, my goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
