“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.”
“Wendy took fantastic care of my dog Beau. I loved receiving photo/video updates. It’s such a comfort knowing I have someone so caring and dependable to watch my baby. I will definitely book again!”
“Laurie was wonderful with Gracie! I was a little nervous letting Gracie stay away but from the moment we had our meet & greet I felt very comfortable. Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”
“It was the first time leaving my two Cavaliers with someone other than a family member. Lisa calmed my anxiety and sent several updates over the weekend. She accommodated my lazy, anxious older dog as well as my rambunctious puppy. Both pups were content and relaxed! I would definitely book Lisa again.”
“Emily and Patrick were great sitters for Nola while we were away attending a wedding. They sent multiple pictures and video updates for us, and Nola had a great time playing with Eli! Thank you so much 😊”
“Melissa and her family welcomed Yogi and took care of him really well! I was nervous to leave him but with all the communication and update I felt better! Thanks for adhering to all of Yogis needs.”
“Adrienne was wonderful. Quick to respond and kept us updated with photos and messages while we were away. She did a great job with our sensitive little dog. We will definitely call on her again.”
“Cheryl is impossibly lovely. Our dog is a nervous boarder - he often struggles the first few days. But he didn't spend a single night in his crate while in Cheryl's care. She was super flexible with the start and end time of our stay and clearly gave our pupper a second home while we were away. We couldn't ask for a better experience.”
“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!”
“Kash had a wonderful time staying with Briana, her family and his new friend Duke! Briana sent several pictures daily and kept up updated on his eating, playing and sleeping routine. We knew he was getting the love and attention as if he was home.”
“Jennifer and Devin were amazing! We came from Orlando for vacation and they were very communicative before and during the stay. They made me feel very safe that Akiro was going to be in good hands while we went out. Akiro was feeling a little sick from the stress of traveling and she reassured me that they can still watch him. Their pup Batman was so so sweet and was such a good friend to Akiro. He was showing him all the good spots to lay on the couch. They also provided me with many pictures to make sure we knew he was having a good time.”
“This was my first time using Rover. It was convenient. Monica forwarded pictures of my dog during his stay, which provided me with comfort. My dog appeared to settle in well. I will use Monica in the future.”

About: Ever since I can remember I’ve been around animals! When I was born, there were cats and a dog in the house. I was responsible for my own dog, a brindle boxer, from the age of twelve, and took great care of her, cleaning up after her, and taking her for runs and walks all the time. Before her, my family had a golden retriever that we loved with all our hearts. I even had four turtles from the age of 7 through 19. I’ve got plenty of experience taking care of animals! I currently have a variable schedule where I work two to three days a week, some days 3-4 hours, sometimes the whole day from 8-3pm. It just depends. However, even on the full days I have time during lunch for quick puppy bathroom breaks, and plenty of time after work for walks or runs. I can crate your pup if needed, and I live in an apartment complex with a little dog park if they need some socializing! In regards to walks, I usually do these in the evening once it starts to cool down a bit so the fur babies don’t overheat. I can take them on short runs too so they can get all the exercise they’d need!
“My first time using Rover was an excellent experience due to finding Nicole to take care of my two cats. She is trustworthy & caring, two things I value most when looking after my girls. Thank you Nicole, lucky to have found you ❤️”
About: I’m an animal lover! I not only grew up with several pets including cats, dogs, fish, parakeets, & hermit crabs - but I now have two cats and two dogs of my own. I know how difficult it can be to find someone to check on your pets when you’re in a bind. That’s why I decided to reactivate this account, to help others out! Pet services give me the pleasure of working with animals while helping out the owner. I enjoy running, walking, hiking, and play time, as well as just relaxing with animals. I treat every pet as if it were my own, with love and care. Availability : Mondays = After 5pm Tuesdays / Wednesdays / Thursdays = 12-1pm & After 4:30pm Fridays = After 3:30pm Saturdays & Sunday’s = Open I treat all animals as if they were my own which includes patience, love, affection, and gentleness. I’m also accommodating to their specific mannerisms such as high energy, size, disability, etc.
“Kaitlyn was fantastic! She took very good care of my kitty cat and I came home to a satisfied little pet. She sent pics and reports and made my time away feel way less guilty. My house was kept very neat and I felt comfortable with her in my home.”
“Corinne is truely an exceptional Pet Sitter. She was our best Christmas present, as we booked her last minute (after a scheduled visit was cancelled). Our 20 yr. old kitty, normally pretty shy with strangers, fell in love with her on 1st meeting and let Corinne hold & pet her on every visit. She was the best communicator, sending lots of pictures and short messages. We are so happy and thankful to have found Corinne and will definitely book her again!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats in a veterinary setting and understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level.

I’ll make sure your cat receives plenty of attention and care while you’re away.
“Tori was a great choice to care for our cats and fish while we were on vacation! She followed all instructions left for her and provided many pictures every day. We got home and everything was as we left it. She even cleaned up littler off the floor and washed the cat food spoon. Couldn’t have asked for anything more! We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Cassandra was WONDERFUL! My cats were happy when I got home, but I could tell that they were lovingly cared for. Cassandra sent me pictures every day and messaged me to see if there was anything else that she could do for me. The house was immaculate when I came home and the sheets were washed. I would HIGHLY recommend this lovely caring young lady!”

When I am in your home I will do what is possible to make them feel happy and safe.
“Erin was a total joy to have sitting in my home. She fulfilled her work schedule and returned to my 2 Maine Coons. She is gentle, respectful, and kind to my kitties, and worked well with my one shy kitty, who sought refuge under my bed. I am very pleased with her care, and will definitely use her again! She also took care to leave my home as she found it. What a joy! Roslyn”

“Kristie provided amazing service while caring for our 17 year-old cat while we were on vacation.

“Michael was absolutely amazing. We got video updates, as well as pictures while my husband and I were out at Kennywood.

About: I am a single mom with 20 year old daughter who is away at college. I have a golden retriever who loves to have dog friends visit. Your pet will get the same TLC as my own dog. They will be a part of our family while they are with us. I have a fenced in yard, making it easy for your pet to be safe and get some exercise too. I have been watching dogs in my home for about 25 years. I work from home Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and I am gone on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from about 10-4, so I am almost always home aside from the occasional errands. On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, I can always run home in the middle of the day if a potty break is needed. Accidents are ok too. Mine has had a few over the years. Your dog will never be in trouble if this happens. You won’t have to worry about your dogs when they are with me. They will be treated like family. I work from home, so your pets will rarely be left alone. When they are, it is just for brief periods for when I running errands. I have a fenced in yard and w very friendly fur baby of my own. I can let them out frequently and always supervise outside even though my yard is fenced. I am able to feed them if they are here during meal time. I will just need to know if your dog is food possessive so I can make sure they eat separately from my dog. Unfortunately I can’t leave your dogs food down throughout the day because my dog will eat it.
“We love Wendy. My only regret is that I didn't find her sooner. We've moved too far away now, but she was so great to help us with last minute doggy daycare when we had a day of house showings before our move. We will miss her. She pampers the pets that stay with her. It's obvious that they become part of her extended family. You will not regret booking Wendy, I promise.”
“I dropped my puppy off for a daycare for the first time! Tara was very nice and she sent me photos and progress reports regularly throughout that day! Will definitely be using her again ?”
“Gregory was an awesome sitter! He was so easy to communicate with and was super laid back. He listened to my pups needs and made sure pup was happy. He has the sweetest dog (Zora) that I have ever met. I’m so glad I found Zora and Gregory. I’ve never seen my pup leave as happy as he did, this sit:)”
“Anthony and Leslie took such good care of our Harley! We received so many pictures throughout the day, so I was confident he was taken well care of. I would definitely book with them again. Thank you!”
“Melissa was amazing. Jake and I received an amazingly warm welcome when dropping off. My dog has anxiety issues and Melissa and her crew were wonderful. They took Jake on walks, took him to the park and he was so happy. Truly one of the best experiences Jake and I have had. So incredibly wonderful.”
“Basil came home tired and worn out. I think she had a good time staying at Heather's with her man, and the kids! Would recommend her! Shes punctual with replying back, very informative, and fairly prices, and she accommodated basil with her special need.”
“We had a great experience and highly recommend Adrienne as a sitter. She took the time to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, which helped us know this would be a good fit for everyone. During Norman’s stay, she was attentive, communicative, and sent daily updates with pictures and videos, giving us peace of mind while we were away. We also appreciated that the dogs had access to a nearby fenced-in dog park for exercise and play, as well as a separated areas in the house to relax when they needed a break from the excitement. It was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“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.”
About: Hi there! I work from home my two available days a week, which means your dog gets 24/7 companionship, frequent backyard potty breaks, and mid-day snuggles on the couch. I grew up with dogs, and I have experience with everything from puppies to seniors. I am experienced with medication administration, limited mobility, and managing separation anxiety. I also have experience with reactive and dog-selective dogs and keeping them safe and happy. I live right by Bird Park and in a very walkable neighborhood, and can accommodate 2-3 walks a day - but if your dog is happier cuddling/sleeping inside, that’s okay too! I’d like to match your dogs normal routine as much as possible and make sure they get as much play and rest time as they need. Your dog will be safe and happy with me! I currently work from home two days a week (Monday and Friday) so I will be available 24/7 on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I request that you give me your dogs normal schedule, and I will follow it exactly to make sure that they are comfortable and happy. I am available after 3pm Tuesdays through Thursdays. Your dog will be the only pet in my home, and my top priority! I require a meet and greet before boarding to ensure we are the right fit. I will keep you updated with daily pics of your pup. I have a large crate in case your dog is crate-trained, but as I work from home they will just be hanging with me on the couch or dog bed - wherever they are more comfortable. My home is clean and free from any hazards to your pup, and I will follow your exact household rules regarding feeding and anything else. My previous dog who has now crossed the rainbow bridge was reactive and dog-selective, so I am very experienced on keeping your dog safe while on walks and reading their body language. They will never be off-leash in an un-fenced area, and I will happily avoid any triggers that you make me aware of - just let me know!
“Amy is simply amazing! My little one jumps out of my arms to go to doggy day care with her. She loves all of the dogs so much and it shows. We would never use anyone else.”

I am dedicated to providing the highest level of care for your pet and ensuring that they receive the love and attention they deserve while you're away.
“Cheryl was absolutely amazing with my dog! He was a little nervous at first, but she made him feel comfortable, and he ended up really enjoying his stay. Since he's an older pup, I was naturally a bit worried about leaving him, but Cheryl kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me such peace of mind. I highly recommend Cheryl to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their furry family member. She's a 10 out of 10!”

“We have used him twice and he went above and beyond both times walking my dog, from taking him in his car to a better location for a walk to potty breaks and putting him back in his cage and setting it up the way it was before for his anxiety I would absolutely recommend to anyone”
About: Hi, I actually go by Asher but Rover won't let me update my name yet. I'm a former direct support professional for disabled humans. Lydia was my first dog, a 75 pound shepherd mix with anxiety that I slowly trained because she came from living in a shelter her entire life. I know what it's like to worry about leaving your pet in a kennel where they can pick up diseases or pests, and they have dozens of animals to look after. In my home your pet would have their own space, be taken for walks regularly, and be given much more attention than at a kennel. Animals need attention in order to thrive, but sometimes busy lives make it hard to give all they deserve. Hiring help is the best way to meet their needs while you're taking care of the other parts of your life. March 2025 note: I am only able to do walks and drop ins at this time. My dog only accompanies me when prearranged with the owner's permission. I work overnights thurs-sat and have sun-weds free to do Rover care. Early mornings and evenings are best for me. I typically walk about 25k steps a day and can lift over 200lbs, so that carrying my 90lb dog in an emergency isn't an issue. This makes me ideal for large and giant pet owners, especially those with senior dogs. I have experience with senior and disabled pets. I've never hesitated to put an animal first when it's in distress, but my ideal is to help prevent your pets from ever becoming distressed in the first place. Have experience with high anxiety, reactive, and shy animals.

I’ve trained two puppies from zero to age two in accordance with the Canine Good Citizen Standards. I believe in a fear free positive reinforcement training and caretaking style and am studying to help generally train service dogs (online training and I’ve shadowed a non-profit trainer). Pet care is ingrained in my daily and weekly schedule with the ability to work from WiFi, and it’s a blessing. From walking, movement, exercise, brain stimulating games, and general care - it is all included in my day. I care for your pets how I’d want someone to care for my pet - of the highest standard of attention and thoughtfulness in both my space and yours.
About: I've loved animals ever since I was a little girl. We always had kittens. When I was 10, we got our first family dog, Trixie, a Miniature Pinscher. Ever since, I've always had either a cat or a dog. I now have 2 dogs and 2 cats. I currently do not have a job. I recently moved up to Ohio over the summer. I have plenty of time to care for your pet or pets. And with your permission, I could bring my 14 year old daughter, who is a huge animal lover like myself. I will care for your pet or pets as if they were my own. I'm a stickler for following instructions. If you hire me, you won't be let down!
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.

“Jennifer and Devin were amazing! We came from Orlando for vacation and they were very communicative before and during the stay. They made me feel very safe that Akiro was going to be in good hands while we went out. Akiro was feeling a little sick from the stress of traveling and she reassured me that they can still watch him. Their pup Batman was so so sweet and was such a good friend to Akiro. He was showing him all the good spots to lay on the couch. They also provided me with many pictures to make sure we knew he was having a good time.”
