About: We know how hard it is to leave your dog with someone else, so we treat every dog like a part of our family. We rescued our Pomeranian Teddy from a puppy mill when he was 2 years old, and now he's a happy, playful member of our family. We have always had dogs growing up and love to be around them, so it’s great to have guests! We enjoy showering them with endless attention and affection. I'm protective of my pup and keep my house 100% dog safe, and keep a watchful eye on any dogs in my care at all times. Teddy and guests are never left unattended in the backyard even if they’re just going for a quick potty break. Our house has a large, completely fenced backyard with lots of room to run around and exercise. We are located only 10 minutes from Columbus International Airport, making our house an incredibly easy stop if you're using us while traveling. We are not under the flight path at all, and our neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. We will follow any special instructions on feeding, potty breaks, medication, or anything else to the letter to keep your pup safe and comfortable. Pups are allowed on the couch with us, and we never leave them by themselves overnight. You’ll have to let us know how many updates is too much-We love sending pictures! I am typically available to watch your dogs at any time. Weekdays, weekends and holidays can be a fun time for them to stay here and hang out in a quiet neighborhood with a friendly pup. In 2026, we are unavailable for most of November and 5 days in December, but after that our calendar is open! We have a dog safe interior and a fenced backyard in a quiet neighborhood for your fur baby to run around in, with our sweet pomeranian to keep your dog company. We can crate your dog if you needed, or they can sleep with us in our room. Your dog will be given attention constantly and let outside every 2 to 4 hours, or as needed.
“We couldn’t be happier with our dog walker! He took the time and patience to help our timid puppy feel comfortable and build trust, which means so much to us. We also love that he uses a clicker to reinforce training and support our pups’ progress. His communication is excellent, and the pictures he takes of our doggos are absolutely phenomenal! It’s clear he genuinely cares about our dogs, and we feel lucky to have found someone so thoughtful, patient, and dedicated. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had the pleasure of taking care of tons of furry (and scaly) friends over the years. It warms my heart to provide all that I can for any pet.

Each day, I dedicate time to feeding, walking, playing, and checking in on the pets in my care, ensuring they feel safe, stimulated, and loved. My routine is flexible and centered around their needs, whether that means early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. I keep things clean, stick to established routines, and provide regular updates with photos and notes. Whether it's feeding, administering medication, or giving extra belly rubs, I treat every pet like part of my family.
“Jessica, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such amazing care of our sweet Oliver. We truly don’t know what we would have done without you — we had to leave at the very last minute, and you absolutely saved us. Oliver is usually very shy and cautious with new people, but somehow you worked magic and won his little heart right away. Knowing he was with you gave us so much peace of mind. He was not just taken care of — he was loved. We are beyond grateful to you and would trust you with Oliver again in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything 🤍🐶”

About: Hi! My name is Sabrina and I’m a second year optometry student at The Ohio State University! My first job at 13 was taking care of my next door neighbor’s dog. She loved me so much that she referred me to a few other people within the neighborhood. They relied on me to walk, feed, give medications, among other responsibilities. I never had the opportunity to have my own furry friend, so I loved dedicating my time to helping others with theirs :) I’m a second year optometry student looking for an easy and fun way to make some extra money! My schedule for school keeps me pretty busy, but I do have time to fit in some pet sitting jobs! I love pets and love being active, so walking dogs definitely is within my ballpark (no pun intended). If your pet loves to have someone keeping them company I’m the same way!
About: I’m an Ohio State sophomore studying animal sciences on track to be a veterinarian and I have worked at a vet clinic for 3 years! I have extended experience in administering medications, both oral and injectable, including diabetic care. I also have 2 golden retrievers at home and 4 cats. I’m currently a student at Ohio State and have my car on campus if needed! I have lots of breaks during my day that I would be able to get out and help! I will always make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m comfortable following your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide.
About: I’ve been through all of the puppy stages and the older-medication needing stages! I love big and small dogs, pretty much all dogs! I love taking them on walks and spending time inside cuddled up! I work from home M-F so I’m available all throughout the day and night to take care of your pup when you happen to be busy! I live in an apartment complex. My unit has a large balcony that your dog can relax on. There is also a huge courtyard and a dog park right outside that they can run around in!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Gahanna. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
