Sarah was great and took really good care of Petey. She watched Petey for 4 days and made sure he had plenty of love and attention. Sarah watched Petey in our home and was very respectful of our things and to our neighbors. I highly recommend her services and would definitely hire her again.

Audrey takes the best care of my dog and home. She keeps me posted, including pictures, of their daily activities. She gives BamBam so much love that I’m sure he is very sad that she leaves when I return.

This is the 3rd time we've used Lori to watch our pup, Marshall. It is so nice to be able to escape on a vacation and know that our baby will be taken care of and loved. Lori stayed at our place again and everything was in order when we returned. She even washed our sheets on the bed! She is such an incredible person, so kind and kept us updated via Rover every day. 10/10 recommend Lori to care for your pet! Thank you Lori!! <3

Our high energy dog Costello had a great time with Tabbi! He warmed up to her right away and when we left on vacation, they were snuggling on the couch :). Tabbi kept us informed about what she and Costello did during the day. I would highly recommend Tabbi as someone responsible and caring to care for your dog.

Kim house sat for us for six days taking care of our one year old dog and two cats. We first met at a local park so she could meet our dog - a very high energy lab mix. Then she came to our house ahead of our leaving to learn our setup. We threw a lot of information at her and she was completely unfazed. Our pets took to her right away with no problems. We got daily updates including information about the playing, walking (dog!) and medicine our older cat needed. We could not have been more pleased with Kim. Great communicator. Great with the pets. We would definitely recommend.

This was our first time using Rover, and honestly, we were a little hesitant about trusting the process. We've used boarding facilities in the past, and unfortunately those experiences didn't go well due to a lack of supervision and care. Halle completely set our mind to ease from day one. She was phenomenal from the start—attentive, communicative, and incredibly flexible when we accidentally mixed up some dates. She always kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our boy, Stirling, is a high-energy husky who requires patience, understanding, and someone willing to keep up with him. Halle handled him like a champ. She treated him with genuine compassion and care, and it was clear she took the time to understand his personality and needs. The biggest testament to how wonderful she is is Stirling's reaction to her. He gets excited every time she comes over, and after her visits, he'll sit by the windowsill waiting for her to come back. That's all the confirmation we need that he loves her just as much as we do. We can't recommend Halle highly enough. She is trustworthy, caring, reliable, and truly exceptional with dogs. We will absolutely be booking with her again!

We had a wonderful experience with Marisa as our cat and house sitter. She took excellent care of our home and left everything clean and well cared for. When Kitty broke a potted plant, she let us know right away and cleaned it up with no fuss at all, which we really appreciated. Our cat was clearly happy, relaxed, and well looked after when we returned, and we loved receiving so many photos and updates while we were away. We felt completely at ease knowing our home and cat were in such capable, thoughtful hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to others.

About: Since I was young, I’ve always had a pet. After college I finally got a pet of my own and they’ve just multiplied over the years! Dogs are my specialty - I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to friends and family & I’ve trained both of my dogs since they were puppies. I’d say what sets me apart from others is that I have plenty of time in the afternoons (and any time during the weekend) to take care of your pup because my job ends early in the day unlike a 9-5 job. I have years of experience under my belt and I just really love animals. Always have and always will! As a teacher, I am always home early on the weekdays so I’ll have plenty of time every afternoon to play with & walk your dog! I am available any time on the weekends and I can board Fri-Sun. My husband and I have a big fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company! We are firm believers in lots of walks, lots of playtime, and positive reinforcement. If needed, we can provide a crate as a safe space for your dog to lounge in. Our dogs are our children and we will treat your dog with the same love as we treat our own :)

About: Hi! My name is Dayne, and I’m a 22 year old college football player with a lifelong love for animals. I’ve grown up around pets my entire life, and spending time with them has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Right now I have a German Shepherd and a Beagle, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I actually trained my German Shepherd myself from the time he was a puppy, and seeing him grow into such a well behaved, obedient dog has been incredibly rewarding. That experience taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and understanding how every dog learns a little differently. Being a college athlete has also taught me the importance of being dependable, responsible, and sticking to a routine. Those are qualities I bring with me whenever I’m taking care of someone else’s pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or just keeping your dog company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they’re getting the attention and care they deserve. I also have experience with more than just dogs. I grew up with an Umbrella Cockatoo that’s still part of my family’s life today, so I’m familiar with caring for birds. I also own a Bearded Dragon, which has given me experience caring for reptiles as well. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful because they’re family. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, make sure they feel safe and comfortable, and always follow your care instructions. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m a college football player, so all of my athletic commitments are done in the mornings. I also take all of my classes online, which gives me the rest of the day to fully focus on the dogs in my care. My schedule is very structured, and I’m home the majority of the day outside of morning workouts. My own dogs are properly exercised every single day. We go to the dog park, on long walks, and even hikes when the weather is nice. I make sure they are well run and mentally stimulated so they’re balanced and happy. They are fed twice a day with high quality dog food, and I stay consistent with their health needs. My German Shepherd gets joint supplements, and both my Shepherd and Beagle get salmon oil daily. I take their care seriously, and I would treat your dog the exact same way. Being an athlete, I’m already used to routine, discipline, and responsibility. That carries over into how I care for animals. Your dog won’t just be “watched” they’ll be exercised, cared for, and paid attention to. I live in a 1600 square foot home with plenty of space for dogs to move around comfortably. I have a large dog crate available if your dog is crate trained or needs their own quiet space. I also have two friendly, well socialized dogs who love to play and will keep your dog company. Safety is always my top priority. I’m experienced with large breeds and strong dogs, and I understand proper leash control, structure, and supervision. I keep a clean, organized home and always make sure dogs are monitored, comfortable, and secure. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone, and I don’t take that lightly.

About: I have had dogs since I was little and love playing with them and taking care of them. I’m an athletic person so if the dog is in the mood to play, I can certainly be a great playmate! I have experience with dog sitting overnight, dog walking, and drop-in visits. I work at a nursing home, but I get to choose the shifts I pick up, so my schedule can be very flexible. I am looking for more pups to help out! I can provide overnight care at the owners home. While I am there, I make sure to take your dog for walks, play outside, and give lots of rubs and cuddles. As a person, I am very low maintenance, so you won’t have to provide hardly anything if come care for your pups overnight.

Melody was so amazing with my cat. She made me feel so comfortable being away from home. The pictures she sent while I was gone made me know that my cat and home were in good hands. She left me a wonderful note about her time at my house which was so comforting to come home to. And she left a little special toy for my cat. I will definitely have Melody stay again. Thank you so much!

Naomi was absolutely amazing with Mason! We used her over the holiday weekend, and she exceeded all of our expectations. Her communication was excellent throughout our time away, the house was spotless when we returned, and it was clear that Mason was well loved and cared for the entire time. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us complete peace of mind. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience, and I would happily book Naomi again and recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.

Keerie was an amazing drop in sitter. I contacted her very last minute for an emergency sitting and she was able to show up 3 times on the same day I asked her and drop in 3 times per day for the whole weekend. She provided picture updates and kept me updated about my babies while I was out of town. She was so empathetic for my situation and I couldn't recommend her enough!

Bridget was absolutely amazing, kind, and loving with our anxious girl, Maple. We were nervous to leave Maple while we left the state to visit family, but with having Bridget caring for our dog, those fears were quickly squashed. She provided daily updates and pictures on how things were going, took her for walks, and treated Maple as if she were her own pet. She also took great care of our home, and left a care plan at the end of her stay to give us even more insight into what Maple's days looked like while we were gone. I will 100% be rebooking with Bridget in the future and am so grateful for her!

Taevon was so amazing,I contemplated not writing a review to selfishly keep him available when I need but he deserves all the public praise!!! From beginning to end his response time to everything was basically immediate. He did a meet and greet with my two very old pups and came prepared to ask questions based off their profiles and info. One of our pups comes with a TON of issues and his needs and care are 1 of 1 for sure. Tae handled him and all his quirky needs seemlessly. I returned home to an immaculate home, and two peaceful content old dogs. We have two homes and honestly making sure they are always in Cleveland to f I need a sitter bc Tae is UNMATCHED in care!

Jake did a great job reassuring me prior to and throughout my trip that my dogs were in the best of care. He gave regular updates, responded quickly, great communication, brought our mail in, and even left a note welcoming us home. Highly recommend!
