“Paul was phenomenal! I received daily photos and updates on how she was doing. Ru was put on a supplements after our meet and greet Paul was great about it, he was able to get her to take them even though she hates to. We will definitely be using Paul again in the future.”

“Lisa is amazing! She did a great job keeping us updated with pics & videos. Our dog has never looked this happy when we’ve gone away. She kept her active with walks & playtime with her pup. Highly recommend!”


“Lana has been absolutely amazing with my husky, Saphyra! She’s not only reliable but incredibly dedicated to ensuring Saphyra gets the care she deserves and she always kept me informed through pictures, videos and messages. From regular walks to thoughtful attention to her needs, Lana has been a wonderful caregiver. It's clear she genuinely loves what she does, and I can’t thank her enough for taking such great care of Saphyra. Highly recommend!!!😁🌹”



“Erin was great with our three dogs. It was their first time staying at someone else's house and they were acting up. She was willing to bring them back to my house and watch them there. I love that she was flexible and honest. She took great care of them. I was over three hours away and was so glad that she was able to come up with plan B and execute it. She was so flexible, accommodating and friendly. She made me feel at ease. We would definitely book her again.”

About: I'm home fulltime so your dog won’t be alone! i love to go for walks, give belly rubs + keep them entertained and feeling loved! I'm new to Rover but use it for my dog and figured i’d also be a sitter! i’ve mainly cared for my own or my friend's dogs either in their home or mine and we always have a blast! i’ve taken many courses on dog behavior and My pup is actually trained for therapy, service and he’s a Canine good citizen! ( a 6 year old 22 lb Cockapoo who is super sweet) I consider dogs as members of the family, and know they have their own unique personalities + special needs! looking forward to hanging with your pup while you're busy doing Human things! I work from home fulltime so your dog won’t be alone! my schedule is super flexible too and would revolve around your dogs schedule :) i live in a two story house. no fence in my backyard so we would go for leashed walks. My dog sleeps with me in my room on his bed. your dog can sleep with us in their bed/crate. your preference

About: Hello my name is Sarah. I am a mom of 3, and have 2 pups of my own in our family. Pets have always been a big part of my life since a very young age. They are so much more than pets, they are our family members. I am currently a full-time stay at home mother with ample time to help you and your family out while you are away, at work, or your pet is in need of a companion. I know how hard it is to leave your pets/family alone while you have to take care of every day life. I can travel to and from your house to care for your pet(s) as one of my own. My schedule is very flexible to accommodate any need you might have. I will make sure your pet is very well loved and happy from the time I get there until the time I leave. I look forward to meeting you and caring for your loved fur babies.

“Marilyn was an absolute pleasure. We left our senior dog with her for about 10 days with little internet and Marilyn would send updates consistently. She is very caring and welcoming in her home making your dog feel as part of her family. She exceeded our expectations as this was our first time using Rover. We highly reccomend Marilyn and will always book for future trips. Absolutely the best!”

Youngstown dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nathalia was amazing. Very responsive and checked in with us at least once per day. She has a very clean and welcoming home with fenced in backyard. Our puppy stayed for 8 days with her and seemed extremely happy when we picked her up. Will definitely be using Nathalia again. Thank you.

Our dogs were very well while staying at Vivian and Katia’s house. They followed all the instructions related to food, walks, etc and we received plenty of pictures during the days we were gone. Katia was very kind and sweet with the dogs and they look happy and resting calmly all the time.

It was first time our dog Vinny stayed with Gianna. She took a great care of him, walked him in the park, hiking… Gianna has nice clean house and property for him to enjoy outside. Vinny had his 5th Birthday when we were away and she baked cake for him and congratulated him! Thanks for taking the care of my beautiful dog!
