Top rated Johnstown doggy day care sitters

“Will and Bibiana were absolutely amazing with Milo. They made me feel so comfortable that he would be taken care of and loved just as if he were home with me. They provided lots of pictures and took Milo on lovely long walks in nature!”


“Sally was so great with my pup Marge. I have a really hard time finding people I trust with her, as she is a bit reactive and can be a little mischevious ? Marge was so excited to go back to her house, and Sally kept me informed with updates all throughout the day that brightened my work day. I’d definitely recommend her!”


“I had something come up last minute and needed somewhere to take my boy for the day, and Ariana was able to accommodate us on short notice. He’s very anxious and doesn’t typically thrive in new environments and she took such good care of him and communicated all throughout day!”


“Jodi responded right away after I inquired last minute about a daycare stay so we could explore the area while passing through on a road trip. Our doggy was slowly introduced to the other dogs, who were all so friendly, and she immediately ran off to play. She sent me pictures throughout the day of all the fun our dog was having and she was so tired on the way home. If we’re ever in the area again, I’d bring our dog back in a heart beat!”


“Alyssa was very responsive, sent lots of pictures/updates and Tucker is nice and tired after a full day of playing! Thank you for taking great care of our little guy!”


“Kayleigh was amazing. She was able to dog sit last minute and even let me extend my pickup time from 4 to 7:30! (Sorry about that) Macy came home a happy dog and I got updates the whole time I was gone as requested! I’m sure we will be back next time I need a sitter!!”


“Kyla did an amazing job with Finn! He had a great time and came home worn out every day. Kyla communicates well and I love the updates she sends during the day. It reassuring our puppy is in safe hands and cared for during every stay with Kyla. We will definitely be booking with her again!!”


“Our experience with Jamie was fantastic from beginning to end! I am always a little anxious when I leave Hank (especially when it’s somewhere new) and I felt at ease leaving him in her care. Hank had a great time going on walks and playing with her dog Bailey. He was snoring the second he laid down when we got home! Jamie was quick to respond, thoughtful, and flexible. We got so many cute pictures & even a to-go treat bag too! If you’re a nervous fur parent like me I highly recommend booking with her!”


About: I feel that they have such a beautiful and special connection with their owners, which for me is something wonderful and I know how difficult it is to leave it with someone else, but with me your pets will be in good hands. With my fur baby your baby will have a good game time! I work from home so I will have plenty of time to attend to your fur baby needs. I am available for booking on weekdays and weekends at any time I have a patio with a roof where they can play all day and spend their energy, I also have everything your baby needs like food and water bolw, bed and a cage if need it

“Our dog can be nervous around new people, but Laken got down on the floor with her and snuggled to make her comfortable. She had her two small dogs who played well with ours. She has a fenced yard and our dog enjoyed running around. We felt like she received good care and looked very comfortable when we picked her up.”


“Mary was very accommodating on such short notice. I was informed by messages, pics and videos throughout day. Dogs were happy. Everything went real well. Glad there is a trusted pet lover that can lend a hand.”


“Rommel can be pretty shy around new folks so I am always nervous about introducing him to new people. He also isn’t a very affectionate dog (he only likes being petted when he first wakes up, then he has has enough and doesn’t really want that). When I went to pick him up he was loving all over them. I haven’t seen him warm up to anyone as quickly and as completely as he did here. What a wonderful experience!”


About: What sets me apart? I treat every pet like family. With years of hands-on experience, a calm home environment, and a deep love for animals, I focus on consistency, comfort, and clear communication. I maintain your pet’s routine, send regular updates, and ensure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. We also do late night walks and play time. It’s my full time job! I board dogs and do daycare at home and go to peoples houses for drop ins and we also do overnights! The dogs have their own room dedicated to them, safe from being able to get into anything. We also have cameras to be able to check on dogs at all times. In a clients home we maintain calmness with fun and spend ample time with them while owners are away.

“Samantha was amazing! She took our pup in for doggy daycare last minute, was so kind and caring, and took fantastic care of our pup! She sent me updates throughout the day with pictures and was so flexible and accommodating to meet our pup’s needs and provide him with the best experience. He loved running and playing with her dogs and came home so happy! Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be using her daycare services again!”



“Jackson had 3 days of doggie daycare with Matthew, and he was tired at the end of the day but was waggin' his tail the next day to go back! I really appreciate Matthews flexibility in working with my schedule while I was visiting relatives in Columbus. His dogs may be large, but they are sweet as can be! If I come back this way to Columbus I would have Jackson stay again. Thank you!”


About: I have lived with dogs my whole life and have helped care for and train them since I can remember. My family and I have helped foster 5 greyhounds and babysit for friends somewhat regularly. I have plenty of free time for babysitting pups! I'm available weekdays and weekends, any time of the day, just let me know at least a day ahead of time and I'll make sure to make time to take care of your pets! I have a large fenced in backyard for your dogs to play in as well as a very friendly australian shepard to keep your dogs company (however if need be I have enough room that they could be separated), we also have chickens and an outside cat that both stay mostly out front. I have multiple large kennels in case those are needed as well. There's a pool in our backyard, however I make sure to closely monitor any pets that aren't used to pools.

“Bill and Mary are a great team that took care of our pup and showed him lots of love. We appreciated a "meet and greet" with their dogs and ours to ensure they got along okay. Our pup was able to play very well with their three dogs. From the way he came home tired, he had an awesome time playing with Bill, Mary and the other dogs.”


About: Hi, I'm Kathleen. I’m a lifelong dog lover with 15+ years of experience dog sitting, walking, and caring for pups of all ages, breeds, and needs. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, daycare, overnight boarding, house sitting, and even bathing and basic grooming (like nail trims and brush-outs). Pick-up and drop-off available anywhere in New Albany, Gahanna, Westerville, West Albany, Central Village, Newark, and Johnstown. I'm work part-time from home, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I walk about 4 miles daily, and your dog is welcome to join me for part or all of those walks. I’m within walking distance of three dog parks (if you permit), and close to amazing walking trails like Taylor Farm Park & Nature Reserve, Bevelhymer Park, Blendon Woods, and Rocky Fork — perfect for fresh air, exploration, and lots of tail wags. I grew up helping my parents care for their Westie puppies — they were home breeders and it was my daily chore (and joy!). Since then, I’ve rescued and fostered dogs, including those with special needs (low/no vision, senior, anxiety, picky eaters, etc.) I’m experienced with special diets, medications, senior dogs, and those needing extra care and patience. Whether your pet is active or mellow, young or aging, I tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. And of course — unlimited belly rubs included. Your dog will be treated like part of the family while you're away. Reach out — I’d love to get to know you and your pup! I am retired but do part-time graphic design from home. I enjoying staying at home, and love playing with dogs or just letting they nest and get cozy. I walk outdoors, usually about 3-4miles a day, and would love to have your pup along for any/all of that! I love to take photos so expect many updates. Pick up and drop off to your door available, no problem. I live in a dog friendly apartment complex, so lots of great sniffs! There are plenty of sidewalks, ponds and walking trails (and 3 dog parks within 10 minute walk if you and your put agree on that). Also, if your dog doesn't care for meeting new dogs while on walks, there are several sidewalks and foot paths to make a quick turn to cater to your dog's energy and preferences. First floor so no stairs for senior/special needs dogs. Big windows with cozy beds to lay on and watch outside :-) I live with my active 80 year mom so lots of attention and belly rubs to go around. Also I love housesitting so that is a great option if your pup prefers to stay in their own space. I'm an excellent communicator, very respectful and clean. No smoking, drugs, or alcohol. I look forward to meeting you and your pup!
