About: I've cared for family and friends dogs since I was a teenager, as well as our own dogs. I have experience with diabetic dogs and other medical needs. I work part time and will spend my off time with your pup. I like to meet everyone before sitting so I can get to know their routines and make sure everyone is comfortable! I will care for your pets as you do. I typically visit the home before dogsitting to meet the dog and see what their routine is.
“Angela watched both of my dogs while I was on vacation at my campsite on literally the weekend of July 4, 2022. She is a very kind and gentle soul. She has so much knowledge and compassion working with animals. She took care of my babies with so much love. She very responsible and goes extra! Very trustworthy and kind person. Honestly it was the first time I met her but her personality and compassion shows She on time and goes beyond. You won’t be disappointed and your pets will love her Highly recommend”

“We had the pleasure of having April stay at our house for two nights to take care of our dogs, and she was fantastic! April was incredibly attentive and caring, making sure our furry friends were happy and well-exercised. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind. Our home was left spotless, and our dog seemed genuinely happy and well-cared for. We highly recommend April to anyone in need of a reliable and loving dog sitter!”

“Jessie was fabulous with my dogs while I was gone. Communicated very well, was very respectful of my home. My dog actually had a medical issue and she handled it promptly and efficiently. She will definitely be my go-to when I need pet care, and I will also be hiring her to train my younger dog. HIGHLY recommend her, but also, she’s mine lol so check with me first. ;) seriously though she’s great, your dogs will be very well cared for by her.”

About: Hi! My name is Celeste. I’ve been caring for animals for 20+ years and believe every animal is special, beautiful, and has a unique personality! I helped train dogs at Petco for three years which taught me how to anticipate and correct behaviors. I will make sure they are loved, entertained, learning, and safe. You don’t have to worry about your fur baby when they’re with me :) A little more about me: I’m currently a quality control lab technologist and decided to care for dogs in my spare time. It’s a great way to get out of the house, get exercise, and meet adorable animals!! Please feel free to ask me any questions. I look forward to caring for your pets! Thanks! — Celeste
“Incredible. I’m always afraid to have someone new with my doggies and my home but Alex kept me informed and was on top of everything. We came home to very happy pups. I really hope I get to have her again.”

“Melissa took amazing care of my two pups, sent regular updates and made both myself and them feel at ease. They haven’t had a sitter in years that they didn’t know prior, and one of my pups has alot of anxiety with new people, but warmed up to Melissa at lightning speed and I could tell from the photos she was having a blast. Absolutely recommend Melissa!”

Youngstown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emma did great with my boys, Louis and Dakota. This was their first time with her. She came after I left for the train and did her day job then came back and stayed overnight with them. She sent a video of them playing in the backyard so I know they were happy. She also let me know too that Dakota cut his leg on something in the backyard (his now 3rd time!) while chasing squirrels. He was fine when I got home as this is par for the course with him being a full on spazz puppy. She wiped him up and cleaned it up but I was grateful she told me about it so I could check it out when I got home too. The house was as I left it when I came home too! Hopefully we can use Emma again to babysit in the future!!
