About: I have been dogsitting for +8 years for friends, family members and dear Rover clients. You will read from some testimonials that I can be trustworthy with their pet(s), so much so that they have referred me to other friends and families. I work full-time near downtown 10-6 on Tuesdays-Fridays and from home Mondays, however there is flexibility throughout the week. I have evenings and weekends generally open to care for your pet with my full attention! I usually care for pets in the comfort of their home! At this time, I, unfortunately, cannot host pets in my home - though this may change at a later time.
“Riley was exceptional! She was on time, responsible and gave thorough, timely reports. Her professionalism reassured me that our pooches were well taken care of and safe. This is our 1st Rover experience.....it won't be our last!”
“Caitlyn did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away. She was very kind with her, and left detailed updates and pictures each day. I would definitely book her again!”
“Kelly did a fantastic job with my two kitties! My cats each have different gastrointestinal issues (IBD and a scarf-and-barfer) which require some pretty specific feeding instructions and Kelly followed them to a T, communicating with me when there were complications (which were not her fault in the slightest). She also cleaned up after the IBD cat when necessary. She took plenty of pictures and my cats were healthy and well upon my return. Thanks so much!”
“Joey was polite, professional, and communicated well. He took care of both of my cats and provided valuable peace of mind while I was out of town. I would definitely book his services again.”
About: I have over five years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. Since I was 18, I’ve helped care for our family dog, especially when my family is out of town and he stays with me. I’ve also dog sat for other breeds, including both low- and high-energy dogs. I’ve cared for them in their homes and mine, depending on what works best. My responsibilities include feeding, providing fresh water, regular exercise, and giving plenty of attention. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and energy levels—and I’d love the opportunity to meet and care for your pet! Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work full-time during the week but finish by 4 PM on Fridays, leaving my weekends fully available for dog sitting. I'm flexible with my weekend plans and always prioritize the dog’s needs. If requested, I will adjust my schedule accordingly to ensure they receive consistent care, attention, and companionship. When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize comfort, safety, and routine. I have a fenced-in yard for outdoor play and bathroom breaks, and I’m happy to take dogs on walks if requested. I can easily crate dogs if needed and follow any specific instructions regarding their care. My home has three floors, and dogs are welcome throughout the house if the owner is comfortable with that. However, I’m happy to adjust boundaries and routines based on the owner’s preferences.
About: I’ve done pet sitting for family and friends since middle school and have thoroughly enjoyed every second! I also have a dog of my own who I have cared for and loved for the past 14 years. I am a senior in college with lots of free time to spend taking care of your pets! I have large gaps in my days between classes that I am available. I will listen to each and every of your request and needs when it comes to your pet! I will walk them and keep an eye on them with extreme care and keep them out of dangerous situations.
About: I’ve grown up with pooches my whole life, I currently will pop in on friends’ animals, as well as take care of my parent's dog when they go out of town. Let me walk your dog! I’m free before 7:00am and after 5:30pm most weekdays. My weekend schedule can vary, I’d like to keep it between 8:00am to 8:00pm but I am happy to accommodate any needs! I am not set up to care for pets within my own home. I can walk your dog, and enjoy long walks myself. More than happy to pop in as well and take care of any needs that your pup may have!
About: I have had pets my entire life and currently have a 5 year old rescue dog and a 7 year old cat! I used to train/handle therapy dogs (Irish wolfhounds) in high school and currently do a lot of training with my dog. I am familiar with various training tools (example: e collars and prong collars). I feed a raw diet for my animals so familiar with that and can accommodate dietary restrictions. I love to be active with my own dog, whether that be long walks or playing in a field, so adding another walk into the mix is no problem! I do not have a fenced in yard but I do take very regular walks with my dog. My dog is selective with large male dogs so I will not be able to take any clients with large male dogs. I am familiar with selective dogs though so am comfortable to work with dogs with varying temperaments.
About: I’ve grown up with golden retrievers and always played a large role in their care in my family. I also dog sat for all my neighbors in high school & college summers I am free for walks on weekdays after work (after 5:30) or on random weekends I’m not traveling. Last minute scheduling is fine with me! I’m happy to stop in at your place to care for your pup or take them over to mine! I have no pets in Columbus so your pet would get my full attention!
About: Nice to meet you! I am currently in my gap year before medical school. My genuine and caring personality comes from my many years working at a senior living facility, at the James Cancer Hospital, as an at-home caregiver, and now at a primary care office. While healthcare is my main field, I grew up with animals and they have a soft spot in my heart! People would describe me as responsible, diligent, and more than willing to lend a helping hand! Please feel free to reach out! Monday through Thursday I work 7:45am to 5pm, so I am available before or after then! On Fridays, I work 7:45-1pm. On the weekends, I am available any time! I live in a single family home with a large back yard and I am in walking distance to many parks. I currently live with two other girls and we do not own any pets. Both roommates are animal lovers as well, so we create a very caring environment!
About: Hi, I’m Nate, a dedicated pet caretaker with over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, and more. Whether your dog loves long walks, your cat enjoys quiet company, or your rabbit needs extra TLC, I provide reliable and attentive service tailored to their needs. I treat every pet like family and understand that each one has their own personality and routine. Whether your furry friend needs daily walks, lots of play time, or drop-in visits, you can count on me to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you’re away. Communication is key, and I’ll always keep you informed. I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Book with me for dependable care and a stress-free experience for both you and your pet! 🐾 I work full-time Monday - Friday, 9:30AM-6PM. I'm primarily available for early morning walks before work or evening visits after 6 PM. Since my job allows me to work from home when needed, I have some flexibility to accommodate pets that require more attention during the day. Weekends offer even more availability for longer visits, walks, or overnight stays. Whether you need someone for a quick drop-in, regular exercise for your pup, or extra companionship for your cat or rabbit, I can adjust my schedule to make sure your pet gets the care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable and sticking to their usual routine. This includes feeding them on schedule, refreshing water, providing walks or playtime, and ensuring they feel safe and happy in their familiar environment. I’m also happy to send photo and video updates so owners can check in while they’re away. I am very detail-oriented and follow any special instructions, whether it’s a specific feeding routine, medication, or extra playtime. My goal is always to make pets feel at ease and well cared for.

He follows every instruction to the letter, making sure our four cats, goldfish, and rabbits are well cared for while we’re away. He also has experience caring for small kittens. Whether it’s a planned vacation or an emergency, I know I can count on him. His dedication goes beyond just showing up—he genuinely cares. When I was unexpectedly hospitalized after being hit by a car, one of the first things he asked was if my pets needed care. That level of responsibility and compassion is rare. Despite not having pets of his own, he treats mine like they’re his own family, giving me total peace of mind every time I leave. If you’re looking for someone who takes pet sitting seriously and truly loves animals, Nate is the best choice.”

Grandview Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ame was amazing! Not only did I love her but so did my animals! She paid attention to any and all details, sent lots of updates and pictures, and was great with communication. I felt super comfortable leaving my furbabies in her care and allowing her in our home. 11/10 could not recommend enough!!’
We could tell upon meeting Ann that she is a very experienced and skilled sitter. Our dog, Cooper, is a senior and requires some extra care. Ann was amazing with him and not at all intimidated by his little quirks. Her patience and understanding with Cooper was much appreciated. She was very communicative and kept us updated with detailed texts and photos. She provided outstanding care, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and compassionate sitter.
Jean was the best person to watch over our puppy while we enjoyed a weekend away. She was able to pick up on short notice during a holiday weekend & took funny photos along the way. Jean truly went above and beyond for us and our puppy. I will be requesting her everytime!!! We love Jean and so does Copper!!!
Kayla watched our two dogs while we attended a music festival in town. She was so friendly and communicative leading up to the visits and took the cutest pictures of our dogs enjoying their time. Everything went so smoothly, and we are looking forward to her watching our dogs again soon!
Isabel is a GEM of a pup sitter! My dogs have hilarious personalities and she was able to get my bossy yorkie to behave like a perfect pup! The pictures and updates really made me feel at ease while I traveled. We’re excited to use her again and HIGHLY recommend her care!
