“Jen was absolutely amazing! 10/10. We booked her with a short notice and she still came over the meet the dogs before we left. She kept us updated and even checked the mail and helped sit a package outside for me. She walked the dogs and fed them and snuggled them each day while we were gone! We came home and she had cleaned everything up and washed her bedding and made it all back up! She went above and beyond. Highly recommend Jen!”
“Ethan was great, responsive and accommodating! I could tell when I interviewed him that he enjoys all animals! He spent time with them and loved on them and appreciate him for the help! Will be using Ethan again for my next trip!”
“I had Abigail come to my house to sit my 3 dogs while i was on vacation. She did great with my babies and took time to make them feel more comfortable with her. She even met with me beforehand to meet the dogs which put me more at ease with using her. Abigal is trustworthy and she was respectful of my belongings. She also brought in my packages and took up my garbage cans which was a huge help. I'll definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Katie did a great job keeping our overactive pups company! She helped us enjoy a relaxing weekend away without worrying about our kitties and dogs :)”
“Thea was amazing and extremely thorough. She definitely had our babies best interest at heart and left everything clean! Thank you again Thea!!!!”
“Jessalyn was AMAZING. She was so thorough in taking notes in our meet and greet, and went out of her way to make our dog comfortable without forcing any interaction. She sent regular updates and adorable pictures, and we felt so good knowing Beanie was having a good time. Our dog even ate the first day Jessalyn was there, which isn’t typical when we aren’t home. Knowing she had experience with reactive dogs was also a huge relief. She is an incredible find, and anyone would be fortunate to book her to care for their pets! We have already rebooked!”
“Abigail was fantastic she helped out at the last min. And did such a great job watching Quinn. She kept me informed and I knew he was in good hands! Can’t wait to have her back!”
“Sheila was professional and communicative. She understood some of the behavioral challenges we've had either our new rescue pup and reported that the stay went seamlessly. She sent picture updates and provided good feedback. We would use her again and recommend her.”
“I would highly recommend Andrea. Andrea is an amazing pet sitter. She’s a great communicator, and she’s never given us reason to worry about her arriving on time or leaving early. Andrea has stayed in our home several days now and leaves little to no trace that she was there. Our animals love her and she follows all my notes, so they get the best care when I’m away. Because of Andrea, I can take guilt- and worry-free trips.”
“Lucas was great sitting our three pups at home. He made certain they went out their normal ~4 times a day, he gave them their meds & food as directed, and communicated well with us during the entire stay. We greatly appreciate his time with them :-) and would book additional stays with him as they come up.”
“Christine was available last minute to help with our 3 pups and cat for a quick weekend trip. She was responsive, helpful and our animals were well taken care of. We came home to a clean house and happy babies and are so thankful! Would highly recommend if you’re looking for someone reliable and caring.”
About: Before moving to Cincinnati, I worked in many different pet care settings. I worked for a dog walking/sitting company in Nashville known as Preferred Pets, worked as a bather at the Paw Pad in Canton, worked for Pet Valu when I was in college at Kent State, and as a local dog walker in my neighborhood growing up. I’m very dedicated to the wellbeing of any animal I have the privilege of working with and look forward to seeing each and every pet. Every animal gets guaranteed love, attention, exercise, and play when I’m with them. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, blind dogs, aggressive dogs, shy dogs, excited dogs, and every kind in between. No matter the size, age, temperament, or breed, I always dedicate my entire self to the animals under my care. I work full time 7p-5p M-F so if you need a night time or weekend walker, I’m the one for your pet! I’m always available throughout the nights as well. Throughout my professional experience with dogs I have always put their safety first. This includes knowing the major signs of stress dogs display, and recognizing quick temperament changes. I also have been taught proper ways to walk certain dogs depending on how much of a puller they are!
“Rowan was absolutely fantastic for house sitting my 2 dogs and 4 cat mad house. Felt 100% secure in the care she provided. Would definitely recommend to anyone in need of care.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Shanikka! My Rico was so happy and I loved all of the updates I got during my trip. It meant so much to know he was so well loved while I was gone!”
“Lamarr was great with our dogs! He is a very pleasant person to speak w and his dedication to my pets showed with how happy and relaxed they seemed when we got home! Well done.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was six years old! I have fed, bathed, walked, and scooped after dogs of all ages and sizes and would love to take care of your furry friend! I am a current grad student and part time worker with a very flexible schedule - I would be available for morning, midday, and evening check-ins throughout the week and weekend as well as overnight stays. I am comfortable around dogs of all sizes and taking walks in all environments - as well as willing to drive! Located near Burnet Woods and would love to take your pooch for a hike.
“Trinity house-sat my 2 crazy dogs plus 5 cats while I was gone for 5 days. She did a great job and sent texts and pictures. I would definitely ask her again to watch my critters”
“Excellent”
“Tiffany was very communicative and took excellent care of my dogs and my home! She followed everything I asked regarding the routines for the dogs and did an excellent job keeping my home secure as well. Thanks Tiffany!”
About: Hi! I’m someone who truly loves dogs. I’ve had two of my own and totally get how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pup. I treat every dog I care for like they’re part of my family. I have experience with puppies, including helping with basic training and leash manners, and I’m comfortable with senior dogs who may need a little extra TLC, patience, or medication. I always try to match your dog’s energy and routine. Whether that’s long walks, slow strolls, or just cuddles and company. I pay attention to the little details, and I’m all about making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’m a college student, so my schedule can be pretty flexible, especially in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I actually love having pet care as part of my routine. It’s a fun break from studying and something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it’s going on walks, hanging out while I study, or just giving them some love and attention, I always make time for the dogs I care for. It never feels like a job, it’s just something I really enjoy. When I’m at your home, I treat your pet like they’re part of my family. I keep their routine the same, follow your instructions, and make sure they feel comfy and happy. I also keep things tidy and send you updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Ethan P.
“I was pleased to hear that Ethan has decided to become a dog caregiver. Ethan worked for me as a Pet Stylist Assistant at The Paw Pad llc and always gave each dog such an amazing experience. He is a creative and dedicated petlover who always went above and beyond for each pet. Ethan is a motivated employee and an excellent leader. Although he was an assistant in the salon, he took the initiative to welcome each new pet parent and made sure each dog left with their tail wagging and wanting to come back to see him. I can enthusiastically recommend him to care for any dog as if they were his own.”

Elliott M.
“We had the pleasure of having Elliott care for our 4-year-old Bernadoodle, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Elliott was consistently punctual and reliable, arriving exactly when scheduled. Their kind and energetic approach was perfect for our active pup, and it was clear that Elliott genuinely loves dogs. Our Bernadoodle took to Elliott immediately, and we could see how much Elliott enjoyed all the affection and kisses our dog loves to give. We would absolutely recommend Elliott to anyone looking for a caring, dependable dog sitter who will treat their furry family member with love and attention. Feel free to contact us if you'd like to discuss Elliott's excellent care in more detail.”
Westwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Rowan is just so great with our dogs. We're lucky to be able to get on her schedule for our times out of town!
Chloe did a great job watching our two dogs and cat. We left her specific details about our dogs and she was also able to give them their medication every day without trouble. She made sure to keep their schedules consistent.,She also sent pics of them playing in yard . I would highly recommend her to anyone if they need a dog sitter. Becky and John. Martin
Christine was available last minute to help with our 3 pups and cat for a quick weekend trip. She was responsive, helpful and our animals were well taken care of. We came home to a clean house and happy babies and are so thankful! Would highly recommend if you’re looking for someone reliable and caring.
Brad was so easy to work with from the beginning to the end. He remembered details from our Meet & Greet six weeks ahead of time. Our dogs were at ease with him from the first time they met which was comforting since we never had a house sitter service for them before. He communicated with us daily and shared pics of them too. He also left no trace that he stayed in our house for five days! It was clean and orderly when we returned which is a wonderful perk after being away. I will definitely request and recommend him for future stays.
Very kind. I think my pug Isabelle might like him better than us with how much care and attention he gives. 5/5. Did a great job with cleanliness as well.
Hayley was amazing with our pups! Sje was able to handle our puppies energy and our senior dogs medication routine with ease! She was respectful of our space while sitting our dogs, and kept the place tidy during her time here!
Audrey was fantastic. While out of town, with little to no cell phone service, she provided updates and was able to take care of our pup without any questions popping up or handholding needed. She coordinated with me prior to cover an evening she was unavailable. The cherry on top is the fact that she also coordinated with my mom to get the keys to my car, as it got a flat tire on the way to the airport and had to be ditched in a parking lot. We returned to a clean home and a happy dog. Would definitely recommend Audrey!
Helen has been a reliable and excellent resource for our family and has always take excellent care of our boys. Whether it is dropping by for a walk and play time or staying in our home while we are out of town - we feel extremely comfortable and fortunate to have her support. She is communicative, flexible, and consistent!
