“Valerie did such a great job taking care of our fur babies while we were out of town for Thanksgiving! At first I was skeptical of doing in house dog sitting but Valerie made me feel so comfortable and she was so caring and went above and beyond to make me and my pups feel as comfortable as possible! My dogs loved her and I would definitely use her services again! Thank you Valerie!! :)”


“Berko’s a happy boy after a visit from Aimee. We have no worries at all with her around. She is a wonderful dog sitter! She always takes care of the house as well as our boy.”


About: I’ve always had a strong connection with animals, they seem to know that I love and care for them immediately. I’ve had the most antisocial pets snuggling me within the first few minutes of knowing me. I’m not a magician but I will treat your beloved babies with same amount of care and love as I would with my own. I can be booked from anytime! This is my only obligation and it’s what I’m passionate about, I look forward to caring for your fur babies! Every pet is different and has their own routine they’re accustomed to. I try to know as much about their day to day as much as I can prior to, so I can provide the best and most comfortable experience for your babies! I’m very adaptable, so anything I haven’t done before I will learn quick. I will treat each and every client, (and their pets) with respect and honesty.

“Haley took such great care of my two dogs while staying at my house!!! She always updated with pictures and comments throughout the days we were gone! My two dogs are total opposites in personality and she made sure to spend time with each dog in the way that they like to! Haley will always be our go-to gal!!”


About: I have always been around dogs my entire life. I have always been in love with dogs and they are something I truly admire. I have been entrusted throughout my life of taking care of my friends and neighbors dogs. I have also worked with dogs from Yorkies all the way to Great Danes so size doesn’t bother me. During my experience I have worked with puppies all the way up to our senior pups making sure every dog is cared for and loved to the highest extent possible. I am currently a part time student, which means I can be around your pets most of the day due to my classes only taking at most 3 hours of my day so I can make sure your pets are loved and appreciated. Taking care of someone else’s pet is truly a privilege to be trusted enough to make sure someone’s baby is cared for and loved as much as you do. I will make sure to communicate and provide you with pictures and videos of your pets throughout and make sure to keep you updated with anything. I am a quick learner and will make to keep your stress levels low.

About: Experience includes growing up with a mini farm to raising sugar gliders in college and now having my two yorkiepoo fur babies for the last 6 years. My toddler son and I have been doing drop in visits for our neighbors dogs for a couple years now and really enjoy the cuddles and play time! I’m a SAHM so my schedule is pretty open 7 days a week for drop by visits to include walks, potty breaks and play time. Having an open schedule makes it easy to pop over to your home to let your furry loved ones out to stretch their legs, be fed, play some ball, get tummy rubs or for walks. My two small sons are always with me but one spends most of his day snoozing while my 2 year old toddler would love nothing more than to throw the ball 100 or more times for your furry friend.

“Lindsay was wonderful with Sadie. She understood her anxiety issues and was a real comfort to her. She kept me posted with videos and pictures the whole time I was gone. I definitely felt comfortable leaving Sadie for the first time with her. I will definitely use her again in the future!”



“Besaida was a great sitter for my pup Shiloh. Her communication was excellent, and Shiloh was so happy when I got home. I look forward to booking her again in the future.”


“Kelsey did an awesome job watching our dog, cat, and house while we were away! She is great with animals, respectful, and responsive! Would definitely book her again”


“Denise was a great sitter for our old guys who need a little more care. She was so sweet and patient with them and double checked with me about timing before leaving. She sent pictures each day and when she got there and when she left. We got home and to our surprise, she had washed the sheets and put them on the bed as well as the towels and did some other cleaning around the house. I am 8 months pregnant and I can’t express how much that meant! I would definitely recommend having her watch your furry family members.”


About: Hello!! I am a 21 year old college student. I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager and I do pet-sit outside of rover as well. I have a lot of experience in different animals ranges from dogs to Guinea pigs to snakes. I am very patient with animals and I love to learn about all the different animals I pet-sit and their preferences. In my family we do not believe in giving up on pets when they get older so I have lots of experience with older animals!! I am currently a part-time college student, so I have plenty of time to take care of pets! I am busy throughout the week so I will only be doing pet-sitting during the weekends when I am off. So if you need a weekend get away then I am person for you!! I don’t believe in fitting an animal into a busy schedule, I would ensure they would be my main priority. I will take care of your pet based on the instructions that are given. I know I would want my pet-sitter to take care of my babies a certain way, so make sure to follow every owners specific rules so I can take care of their fur baby to the best of my ability.

“Halle was wonderful with our pup while we were out of town. She was flexible with our schedule and gave us daily updates. I felt at ease on vacation knowing he was in good hands!”


“We are so happy with Ariel and grateful. She was very communicative with us. Our dogs were well taken care of. We came home to a clean home and happy days. We will definitely book her again.”


About: I have cared for my family and friends pets for 10 years now. After many years of an administrative career in the medical/dental field, I am ready to make my love and commitment for fur babies my profession as it is my passion. I will be available anytime for pet care overnight, drop ins, walking, playing, feeding. I am here to give much love as they always have to me. They will be my main and only priority. I care for pets in my clients homes as if they were my own. I pay close attention to all details required of each pet. I make sure they feel safe and loved as their owners are away. I love to send pictures and updates to the owners as well. I am a very clean and organized person in my home as well as yours.

About: I’ve taken care of small and big dogs since I was 12. Those animals came from my own to my neighbors. I would walk them and even give them baths. I’m currently a full time college student as well as a part time worker at the moment. I can do dog walks in the afternoons on the weekends. Sundays I can do morning walks as well! I know about various parks in Columbus that I would love to take your dog to explore and even bring treats for them doing a good job!

“Lauren was amazing with my very high energy dogs. She is very professional and I felt totally comfortable having her care for my babies and my home.”


“Marianne is the best! She watched our two dogs while we were at the beach and we never had to worry about them. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated each day. One of our dogs is very old and the other has to take medicine daily which she handled with ease. We will be using her for our pet sitting needs from now on!”


About: I’ve taken care of many pets since I was young: fish, cats, dogs, birds, you name it! I have 1 dog of my own that I’m currently leash training and teaching basic commands. I would be more than happy to help out with training if requested! I’m currently home from college for the summer, I’m very flexible on my availability and times you’d like me to check on your baby. I love walking dogs, lounging with cats or just coming over to let them out and play for a little while! I am very aware of surrounding whether I’m walking or letting pets outside to do their business. I am able to crate your fur baby if needed and am very capable of following strict food diets (if they have one)!

About: I have grown up taking care of numerous dogs including inside dogs and hunting dogs and frequently pet sit for friends and family when needed :) I am currently working part time and usually work from 2-6 or 2-7 3-5 days a week. I will be able to work around these hours and I also get my schedule very early in advance! I have a fenced in backyard with a lot of room to run and play as well as a friendly poodle to keep your babies company (they can be easily separated if needed) !! At clients homes, it varies depending on the client’s request. However, I do love going outside with the dogs as well as being cuddled up watching tv with them☺️

About: I’ve taken care of a dog since I was around 6 years old. I will ensure your dog is taken care of regardless of anything. I’m currently in college and sometimes I babysit but can always fit other things into my schedule and can’t wait to meet your fur animals. I will ensure they are well taken care of and be very respectful of your home! It will be like you never left them,they will be in great hands!

We are pretty picky when it comes to dog sitters because we have high expectations and Rianna has exceeded those expectations every time.
