“Vanessa kept her word and showed up on the days contracted for allowing me to go out of town on a business trip. Both my mother and my dog (Coco) were pleased with her. I hope she is available again in the future.”


“Thea is absolutely amazing! She gave me such peace of mind and was great with my mini doxie. My pup takes a little bit to warm up to strangers and loves to bark but Thea was so patient and so kind. Only took him one meeting to love her!! She’s very communicative and always sends lots of pictures and videos. She cares a lot about her clients, even put my pups jacket on him to make sure he wouldn’t be too cold without me asking her to do so. I booked 4 straight days for walks last minute and she was able to fit me in no problem. I could not have had a better experience and recommend her to anyone looking! Checks all the boxes and I can’t think of anything she didn’t do well 😊”


About: I grew up with a family dog and was always involved in feeding and walks. As an adult I've watched and checked on dogs for several family members and friends. I am available for feedings and walks and happy to work on any training or commands with your pets! I have experience with all dog sizes. This is currently my full-time job so I have a wide range of availability! I will also be in Columbus for most of the summer so I'm happy to help during any summer vacation plans! I am very respectful of any house rules while dog sitting. I have watched dogs that cannot be alone in yards or need to be crated while alone or during the night. I will do everything I need to make sure the dog is comfortable while I watch them and to respect your home.

About: i’ve had dogs and cats my whole life growing up. Assisted at numerous animal shelters. I’ve had my own dog for three years. She’s very well taken care of. I’ve watched numerous friends and families animals throughout my childhood and adulthood. I’m very competent and confident in my skills with animal caretaking. currently, I’m in the transition of graduate school to my first role as a physician assistant. I have a lot of flexibility in upcoming months to take care of animals and this is something I would like to do not only for my own enjoyment, but for a side income. I’m available pretty much anytime throughout the week, I just need a heads up. I am willing to care for your pets however you see and feel as needed. My personal dog is crate trained and potty trained. She spends most of her day outside of the crate. She’s very well trained both on and off leash. I am happy to accommodate, however you need for your animals.

About: Growing up on a farm means I have an abundance of experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. This experience has only grown thanks to the 1000+ hours spent caring for a great variety of animals thanks to my preparation for and training in veterinary school. I have worked in several veterinary clinics, a couple of shelter settings, and a commercial aviary. This means I am incredibly comfortable caring for all kinds of pets of any age, as well administering medications and keeping up with unique needs. Much of my love for veterinary medicine comes from the opportunity to bond with people and their pets, and providing pet care is another amazing chance to do just that. I would love to serve you and your four-legged family! Being a student allows for a very flexible schedule, perfect for attentive and personalized pet care! Much of my course work can be done online, so I am often free to hang out with your furry friends while I study throughout the day. I try to build my schedule where I don't need to leave pets alone longer than 6 hours maximum, and I am willing to adjust according to your pet's needs. I take great care to keep your pet's routine as similar as possible to their normal to minimize stress. I love to schedule a meet & greet beforehand to get to know you and your pet, and get to know all the details of their routine. I know what questions to ask to make the process as enjoyable and stress free as possible. I also know how nice it is to come back to a clean home. Therefore, when staying in a client's home I take great care to leave everything exactly as it was or better. That way you can relax knowing your pets are well taken care of, and you have nothing to worry about when you return.


“Payton is awesome and my two little pups loved her. She did exactly what they needed (their small and sometimes need a shorter walk and just a little playtime instead). Can’t wait to have her walk them again!”


“Molly was AMAZING! She stepped right in when I contacted her last minute with short notice for help to have someone walk my pup. Biscuit immediately connected with her because of her gentle and kind spirit. I definitely recommend booking Molly!!”


“Madison does such a great job with walking my dog! She’s super reliable and it is always my dog’s favorite thing when she comes by each day for his adventure! She also always goes above and beyond to make sure Ferb has his best time and to spoil him with treats and toys. Could not recommend her more highly!”

About: Hi, I’m Marlee ☺️ 🐶 I have experience watching several breeds and ages of dogs including aussiedoodles, golden doodles, chihuahuas, pitbulls, and more. 🦮 I provide drop-in, house-sitting, and walking services. When I’m at your home, I’m happy to also: 🌱 Water any plants ✉️ Gather the mail 🗑️ Take out the trash 🩵 Pet parents choose me because I’m communicative, responsible, and love their pets! 🗓️ My calendar is always up to date, so there is no confusion about when I’m free! 📄✨For longer sits, I’ll leave a fun report card for your doggo or cat! More about me: I have had so much fun watching my friend’s Aussiedoodle from when she was a puppy until now, which I am pictured with throughout my profile. In addition, I have also watched several different dogs while babysitting. Growing up, I had a cat that I solely took care of, but I also cared for animals on my family’s farm. I worked with goats, hogs, chickens, and ducks, as well as some farm dogs and cats. I work from home, so my schedule is relatively flexible to watch your pet(s)! I prefer walking, going to a park, or hanging out at your home with your pet(s)! I love going on walks with your pet, so I can easily make sure your pet gets their needed exercise. I also make sure owners are comfortable with me taking their dogs places before going anywhere.

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!

McKinley Avenue Corridor dog parents share their Rover experiences
Madison did such a great job with our pups! One of our two pups is anxious, and she did a great job helping him feel comfortable. We could tell from their photos that they loved their time with her! And she had great communication. Will definitely rebook with her again!

Jessica does a phenomenal job with my dog! She leaves detailed reports on how their walks go and time spent together. I get pictures too! She is always timely and provides whatever Opie needs. Opie has loved spending time with her and he feels very comfortable with her - which is huge since he is a little shy.
