“Kelsey did an awesome job with Jazz. When we picked her up she was calm and relaxed. The only thing I wish Kelsey would of sent a picture to us during the day, but I didn't ask her to. Thank you Kelsey! We will use you again if we are in the area.”

“Michele saved my life, I always take my dog everywhere but for obvious reasons I couldn't go to Cedar Point. I contacted her and she quickly said yes. She walked her and took care of her until the afternoon. She sent me photos so I could check her status with my dog. Highly recommended. Thanks Michele.”

“Erin did a great job watching my 13 year old little old dog at her house while I was on vacation. I have my vacation booked for next year and I would definitely use her again for that! Her whole family absolutely adored him and took such great care of him. Thank you so much!!”


“Jenn was a wonderful care giver for our two dogs! She was so patient and understanding, they can sometimes be a handful. She kept us updated daily and sent photos. We knew they were in good hands! I would definitely use her services again and recommend her to others!”


“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”

“Suzanne is wonderful. She kept in touch the whole time our boxer was with her. She has tons of room for a pup to run and play. She is very knowledgeable about dog behavior as well and I never worried about anything. We will be using her again!”

“We found Cynthia and Tim because their location was convenient for our activities around Ohio's Lake Erie islands, but we also found their home to be a great place for our pups to hang out. The pups got lake side walks in their safe and charming community. (We are considering making their Lakeside community a destination for ourselves.) We are grateful for Cynthia and Tim's flexibility in scheduling as well. We will definitely call them next time we're in the area!”


“Sharon is so very kind and patient with the 4 legged babies. My dogs came home happy and tired. Her having a large, fenced in yard was awesome. I will definitely book Sharon again through Rover.”

About: I have fostered many animals over the years. Very obedient dogs to deaf and blind dogs. I have also taken care of a variety of other animals such as ferrets, rabbits, and turtles. Hello, I am currently available at any time as I am taking a leave from my full time job for some very personal reasons. I will base things around your animals schedule. I follow strict instructions for your pets care plus more. Potty breaks are as frequent as need be especially with the age of the dog.
“I was a first time boarder and very worried about my rescue, very spoiled bichon poo, that only likes me. I took a chance on Annie and she was perfect! She was so patient with our boy. She sent me videos and photos during the 9 days and even made up the fresh chicken, kibble combo he eats. He loved her dog Cooper and I think really missed him when we got home. I will definitely be calling Annie again!”

“Ralph was great! He’s friendly and fun and you can tell he genuinely loves dogs. Howie spent 5 nights at his house. Ralph always kept us updated and sent lots photos all day every day. Howie was spoiled with a giant backyard, lots of cuddling, treats and other pups to play with. We will definitely use Ralph again!!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own, so caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur babies because I would only want the absolute best care for mine. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, walks, crate routines, playtime, and of course plenty of cuddles. Living with both dogs and cats has also helped me become very attentive to animal behavior and body language, which allows me to keep pets safe, calm, and happy in my care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure owners feel comfortable with regular updates and photos. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life since I have two dogs and two cats of my own. My day naturally revolves around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure my pets are happy and comfortable. I do work full time, but my job is very flexible. When I’m booked for pet sitting, I’m able to adjust my schedule or take time off to make sure I can fully focus on the pets in my care. I prioritize reliability and planning so every pet gets the attention and consistency they deserve. My home is clean, pet-safe, and thoughtfully set up to create a calm environment. I remove any hazards, keep floors clear, secure doors and gates, and ensure all pets are supervised at all times. I follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise, and playtime — so they feel right at home. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your furry family members. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and communicative. I provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet loves active play, cozy naps, or extra cuddles, I tailor my care to their personality and needs. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a safe, loving home away from home.

“No complaints from the dog. She will board there again. Sitter is friendly and observant/knowledgeable of dog behaviors. Good idea for the meet&greet walk prior to actual boarding.”

“Scout had the best time for his overnight stay. He was loved and cared for like he was part of their family. We got pictures of his adventures throughout his stay. Whenever we are back in town and need a sitter we will reaching back out. ❤️”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, dogs, cats, and parrots were always members of the family. I also spent two years working at a pet hotel, caring for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs, including senior, sick, and reactive dogs. I adopted my own dog, Montgomery, when he was six years old, and he’s been my best friend ever since. We enjoy walks, car rides, and the occasional treat run. I have a fenced-in backyard and provide a safe, loving environment where your pet will be treated like family. Whether your dog prefers playtime, cuddles, or a quiet place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and potty breaks throughout the day. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine with my own dog, Montgomery, so caring for your pet will fit naturally into my schedule. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, or simply having someone nearby, they’ll have company and care throughout the day. I have a fenced-in backyard and work from home, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and outdoor time. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and treat them like family.
Wilmer dog parents share their Rover experiences
We were absolutely thrilled with Katelyn and Andria. We have used dog sitters before but they have surpassed any by a lot. They have the perfect home with a fenced in yard so the pups got lots of outdoor fun. We received videos and pictures daily. But what impressed us the most is how hands on they were with the dogs. We have 2 frenchies and they want attention 24/7. They were always playing or getting cuddles, just like they get at home. They also got to play with other dogs which kept the socialization training going. We highly recommend them and will most definitely be using them again.

Dian was great with our sometimes opinionated little dog! PandaBear, who can be stand-offish with folks, was delighted when we returned, but ran back and forth from us to Dian in her excitement, an excellent sign. Panda looked great, and got along with Dian’s dogs and guest dog. We were very pleased and happy.
