“Adriana was so wonderful to work with! She cared for our 2 cats while we were away and showed a huge appreciation and understanding for cat care and needs, which can be rare. She went above and beyond taking care of the home while we were away as well. Will definitely book again! Thanks so much Adriana!!”


About: Ive worked in the vet field as an assistant and receptionist for over 20 years now. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and have experience medicating. I work side by side with trainers so I am very comfortable and knowledgeable on behavior as well. I do work full time, if needed I can do potty breaks on my lunch break however some of my shifts are short only 5 to 6 hour days. I work 1 Saturday per month but only until noon. I have lots of time in between my full time job. I have a large fenced in yard ans crates if needed. I have 5 small senior dogs that ignore eachother and get along well/ignore other friendly dogs. I live in a small ranch size home so there are no stairs, other then to walk out the back door. Im home unless im working, spending time with my own babies. No children, just me and my husband who is also a dog lover.
About: I grew up with a large golden retriever and small mixed terrier for 10+ years until I went to college. I have just graduated college. I am not able to get a pet of my own yet, but I would love to help you with yours. I LOVE dogs. I have a huge heart and lots of patience for any breed. (Updated: May/June 2026) I am a teacher, so I have summers completely off, and I get home early on school days. I am already a very active person who goes outside to run or walk every day, so adding in your dog is perfect and enjoyable for both of us! I typically go for a run/workout for about 2 hours in the morning in the summers, but am free to be with your dog the rest of the day (Updated: May/June 2026) Located in New Albany/Westerville area. While I live in an apartment, we have 2 dog parks, lots of open grass, and I am always looking for an excuse to go to the 6 minute drive park with a dog walking trail near me or one near you. Your pet would love it! I am willing to do a meet & greet ahead of time. For safety reasons, I am only willing to care for 1 dog (or 2 from the same family) at a time. I am happy to send several updates/photos per day as you desire to confirm your pet’s health and happiness.
About: I’ve been watching dogs around my neighborhood and community for well over 5 years now. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have been watching, walking, sitting, playing, with dogs around my community for a long time now! I have a very open schedule so I can spend pretty much as much time as needed with your beautiful pups! I do get a little busy when school starts again but nothing I can’t handle! I tend to follow all the directions given by the client of how the pup should be handled. The pups will be in great care the whole time you’re gone!
About: Personally have had 2 animals of my own and have taken care of others in the past. Animals have always bee n a passion of mine! I am very flexible. I work Monday-Friday from 9-3. Short days which would give me plenty of time to spend with your furry friend! I will have plenty of time to make sure they get all of their energy out! I make sure the pets are given all of the love and support they are needed to be happy in an unfamiliar environment. If they have a routine that you would like them to stick to I will do my best to make sure we continue to follow that routine!
About: I've been working with dogs my entire adult life. I'm looking to earn money while covering miles before work, and this seems like the perfect way to do so! I work in New Albany from 3pm-1am Monday-Thursday. So I'm available to take your companion(s) for a walk in the late morning or early afternoon every day of the week! I'm an ultramarathoner looking for a side hustle that will match up with my active lifestyle, and what could be better than making money while walking dogs? I am strong, reliable, attentive, and very fast on my feet, should your dog ever slip a leash or otherwise find their way roaming loose.

She also communicates well and is prompt with responses. We love the pictures she sent each day so we knew Rocky was being well-cared for and having a good time.”

“Catherine is amazing! It was our first time leaving our puppy and we are so grateful that Catherine made it so easy. She sent cute pictures that reassured us our dog was doing alright and she followed our instructions perfectly! Definitely recommend!”

About: I've been pet-sitting for five years for family and neighbors, and loved every minute of it! I worked at a pet store for multiple years and am very knowledgeable in everything pet related. If you need help with amphibians, reptiles, or small animals, I'm also knowledgeable and able to pet-sit them! I am currently a full-time college student but will always have time for your pets! I will be busy with classes for roughly three hours a day and working during the evening on most days. Weekends I do not have classes but will still have work. Please message me for any questions about scheduling around my work and school. I am unable to watch any pets in my home, however I am always open to taking care of any pets somewhere else. I will be able to give lots of love and walks to pets who need it!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and currently care for two cats and a dog of my own. I’m very comfortable with daily routines, playtime, feeding, and giving pets lots of attention and love. I also frequently dog sit for friends when they’re out of town, so I understand how important it is to provide reliable, trustworthy care while you’re away. I’m currently a psychology doctoral student finishing my final year, which gives me a flexible schedule and extra time to dedicate to pet care. I love getting outside, staying active, and spending time with animals, so I’m excited to make some new furry friends while providing reliable, attentive care! I treat every pet like my own, with safety and trust as my top priorities. I’m very attentive to routines, behavior, and surroundings, whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing at home. I aim to create a calm, stress-free environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for, and I’m always happy to send updates so you know your pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve had pets since I was 5! After college I adopted my own dog who passed away at 15. I’ve pet sit for various friends and family members and have experience with dogs 6 pounds to 80! I currently teach yoga, am in graduate school, and freelancing. My schedule is rather flexible which allows me to add this into my daily schedule. At this time, I’m not inviting pets into my home. If I have regular clients whose pets I get to know, I will be open to in the future. Since I have a cat, I want to ensure the comfortability of both pets.
“She was fantastic! She accepted the booking last minute, as well as coming to meet the dogs beforehand. She did an amazing job taking care of everyone. Super friendly and kind! We’ll definitely book with her again! Highly recommend!”

About: I treat every pet like family. With experience caring for my own dogs and pet sitting for others, I’m attentive to each animal’s unique personality and needs. I understand how important routines, patience, and trust are. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler approach—and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease. As a school nurse with summers off, I have lots of extra time to dedicate to caring for your pets. My schedule may vary a bit each day, but I’m flexible and always happy to squeeze in visits with your furry family members. I create a calm, safe, and structured environment for every pet I care for. Whether in your home or mine, I prioritize routine, cleanliness, and close supervision. I’m detail-oriented when it comes to safety and always communicate clearly so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: Every weekend growing up, I went down to my cabin with my dad. The moment we pulled in, I’d sprint straight to the neighbors’ place to play with their dogs and puppies. I spent hours with them- playing, cuddling, giving them all the attention in the world- basically doing top‑tier puppy socialization without even realizing it. The only thing I ever wanted was a dog of my own, but my mom wasn’t much of a dog person. When I was 13, I finally convinced her, and that’s when Annie, our mini goldendoodle, became the fifth member of our family. Ever since then, my love for dogs has only grown. Which includes my love for long walks, cuddles!! I’m currently babysitting a little bit throughout the summer but other than that, I’m free and active and looking to hang out with your furry friends! I’ve done a lot of babysitting, house sitting, and pet care over the years, so I’m used to being in other people’s spaces and being reliable, trustworthy, and clean. I want people to feel comfortable having me in their space.
New Albany dog parents share their Rover experiences
We’ve been working with Lisa for a long time, and she is absolutely amazing. She always goes the extra mile, is incredibly caring, and even brings our dogs little gifts. She sends regular pictures that give us great peace of mind, and you can see how excited our dogs are to see her. We fully trust Lisa and will definitely continue working with her. Highly recommend!
