“Minty came to my rescue and let me dog out in a last minute appointment because I had to leave for a job out of state and didn't have help lined up. She came to my house within an hour of speaking to her! She did everything I asked and text me with any issues. She even took pics for me, which made me feel so much better and relaxed!! Thank you so much! My girls thank you too ?”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly see them as family. I love caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have had four dogs of my own. I also love cats and have experience caring for them, including diabetic cats and dogs, as well as pets with other medical needs. Whether your pet wants to play, cuddle, go for a walk, or just have someone to keep them company, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they’re safe, loved, and getting the best care while you’re away. Available for boardings on fridays and every other weekend ! I work two days a week so my schedule shifts every week. Can always make a fit !! I’m in an apartment but I can take your pet outside for walks. Still having fun in the house and cuddles! Have two cats if they get along with other animals.
About: As a dedicated vet assistant, I have immersed myself in understanding animal well-being. I handle a variety of different animals varying in shapes and sizes at work. I am well educated on animal temperaments and proper care. For eight years, I was the primary caregiver for a senior dog with a heart condition. He sadly passed away in October of 2023 after living a long happy life of 20 years! Prior to having my little dog Prince, I have had various pets throughout my entire life, everywhere from puppies to birds to reptiles. I now share my home with my two rescued cats, Doja and Marble, and a rescue dog named Abe! Abe is friendly and loves to play with other dogs. I have a large gate in the home to separate the cats from the dogs, so there will be no stressors for any of the pets who stay with me. Having cared for animals with diverse medical conditions and temperaments, I am adept at recognizing signs of discomfort or distress, and I am well-prepared to handle unexpected situations with care. With my experience in veterinary medicine, I also offer nail trims for an additional cost! Please reach out to me if you would like this included in your service. I am available part time to care for your furry family! Message me the date and time and I will do my very best to work it into my schedule. My previous dog had a strict medication and vitamins routine so I am no stranger to a pet with extra needs. Please make me aware of any restrictions, medications, temperaments, or other various topics I will need to know to ensure your pet has the safest and most caring time with me!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 7+ years of hands-on experience caring for all kinds of pups. I’ve had my own dog for 7 years and have been dog-sitting for friends and family just as long. I’m flexible with scheduling and always happy to work around your routine, whether you need drop-in visits, daily walks, or overnight house sitting. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel loved, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Your dog’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities! I’m a teacher, so I have a very flexible schedule during the summer with lots of free time for drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting.

About: Caring for animals has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. Over the years I've looked after dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish - and I've genuinely loved every minute of it. Now that I'm recently retired, ( I retired a few years early) I finally have the time to do what I've always wanted to do; dedicate my days to helping pets feel happy, safe, and understood. I volunteered at SICSA and completed classes focused on both cat and dog care, giving me a strong foundation and animal behavior, safety, and enrichment. I also share my home with a 5-year-old German Shepherd and have worked closely with a professional trainer picking up many effective training techniques along the way. Patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement are at the heart of how I interact with every animal. Whether your pet needs a midday break, a walk to burn off energy, or simply some company while you're away, I'm here to help. My goal is to give your pet a great day - and give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, capable hands. I'm recently retired, which means I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to your pets. I offer open availability every day up until 3:00 p.m., making it easy to fit in walks, droppings, play time, or midday check-ins. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break or some extra company while you're away, I'm here to help keep their routine smooth and stress free. I take care of pets in their own home by following their normal routines, keeping their space clean, and giving them plenty of attention and comfort. And make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you're away, so their day stays as stress-free and familiar as possible.
About: My family has owned dogs my entire life and I got my first cat when I was 10. My friends and family know me as someone who is passionate about every type of animal and have trusted me with the care of their own loving companions for 9 years. I currently work part-time and have a very flexible schedule so I can easily provide services as short and sweet as walks and drop ins, to services like house sitting and boarding after communicating with you about what will work for both of our busy human schedules and what works best for your fur babies. While I don't have a fenced yard, I live in a very dog friendly community where potty breaks are short walks with my own dog Maggie who will be your dog's best friend and playmate. After that there are snuggles on the couch with my cat Coraline.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I can remember. From family, friends, neighbors and even teachers, they have relied on me to feed, medicate, walk, groom, play and love their babies like my own. Every animal is different, but always loved! I’m currently and fortunately a stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty open! During the school year, I’m available after 9am and could work afternoon needs around pick up times. School is about to be out, so my schedule would be open! I’m not doing in home services due to my rescue having a bad past and still working on trusting other dogs. In clients homes, I’d make sure to follow all requests, communicate what happened during the visit and have the utmost respect for their home/pet(s).

Lea was so sweet and kind! We have never left our cats more than 24 hours and for this trip we were gone for five days . She did everything we asked and made us feel extremely comfortable with the whole process. Next time we go out of town, we will definitely rebook with her.!
I really appreciate Minty being will to work with me and take some tedious instructions with a great attitude. That really meant a lot while I was A way for the longest I have been from my pup. With my aging dog it took a little more care and Mindy was more than willing to make some adjustments.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a West Carrollton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
