About: Hi there! I’m a big animal lover and I would love to take care of your fur baby. I'm available weekdays as well as weekends. I live 5 minutes away from a park so going for little run or a nice walk will always be something fun to do. If you plan on leaving your dog with me more than one night I'm totally comfortable with that. We have a nice fenced in play area at the apartment complex for the dogs to run around. I am willing to take your dog to get groomed or bathed if your schedule is too busy. I'm your go to girl. If your dog is ready for some adventure then let's get this party started. Thank you. I work full time, evenings from 3-11pm, but my roommate is home by 5pm at the latest, so someone will always be around. I’m also free on Friday and the weekend. My pets are allowed all over the house, they sleep in bed with me, and I let them on the couch as well. They are my roommates and have the same privileges as me lol

About: I’ve been surrounded by cats my whole life and bring a calm, patient vibe to every visit—but I love dogs just as much, so tail wags are always welcome too! I take time to get to know each pet’s unique personality, whether that means cozy cuddles, zoomie-fueled playtime, or just being a reassuring presence while you’re away. Expect plenty of pets, play, fresh food and water, and a sparkling clean litter box for cats—or fun walks, outdoor time, and belly rubs for dogs. Based in Cincinnati, I offer pet sitting and drop-ins across the metro area. My flexible schedule (and free weekends!) means I can stick closely to your pet’s routine. I’m experienced with oral and topical medications and treat every furry friend like my own—because they deserve nothing less 🐾 I'm currently on the hunt for a new Agency position, so my days and weeks are completely free currently. Able to be booked at any time. I tailor my care to each pet and the service you choose, because every animal has their own routine and personality. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping things as familiar and stress-free as possible—sticking closely to feeding schedules, walk routines, and favorite playtime activities. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with fresh food and water, and I keep their spaces clean (litter boxes, food areas, etc.). For dogs, that usually means walks, outdoor time, and lots of play (plus belly rubs, of course). For cats, I match their vibe—whether that’s interactive play or just quiet companionship and gentle pets. I’m also experienced with oral and topical medications and always keep an eye on behavior and health, so I can catch anything unusual early. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have hands on experience with puppies, high energy dogs, and caring for multiple dogs at once. I work part time at a dog grooming shop as a bather, I interact with many different dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, bathing, basic training reinforcement, and giving dogs plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I genuinely treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my schedule as I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible but structured routine. I’m able to balance my job while still making time for pet care during my off days, mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m reliable with planning ahead so I can make sure each pet gets consistent attention, walks, and care without feeling rushed. Even with a part-time job, I prioritize being fully present and dependable when I’m caring for animals. In my client’s home, I always follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their normal routine. I make sure pets are safe, supervised, and never left unattended for long periods. I keep water fresh, follow feeding schedules, and provide regular walks, playtime, and attention. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and any safety concerns to prevent escapes or accidents. I also respect the home by keeping it clean, organized, and treating it with care, just like I would my own.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have experience with small dogs and big dogs. I have gone through puppy kindergarten classes with my dog as well. I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, Guinea pigs, birds and bearded dragons. Pet care fits into my routine as I am pretty flexible on weekends, so that I can let them out frequently. I work as an instructional assistant for an elementary school. I can care for animals before and after work as well as my lunch breaks. I follow the school schedule and get holidays and breaks off as well. I prefer staying in the clients home so that the pets can stay in their comfort zone and as close to their normal routine. With that said, I am also very flexible. I can stay in the home, offer drop in visits or care for them in my home. Whatever the client prefers.

About: I've worked at a pet food store for six years, where one of the responsibilities was taking care of homeless cats. I also have been caring for family pets for over five years. I'm a full time college student, so please check my schedule for when my availability fits in with my classes! However, I will be fully available on weekends. I will unfortunately not be providing services for pet care inside of my home. However, for dog walks, Fall's Park is a beautiful local park with trails and it's own dog park!

About: Hi furry families! My name is Iris and I’m an animal inspired gal. I have owned multiple breeds of dogs/cats throughout my lifetime from family mutts to tea cup chihuahuas to 100lb terriers but I do have an extra special place in my heart for bullies. I’ve raised all my children with dogs/cats and am comfortable with all breeds. I would love to meet your babies, give them all the love and attention they need and keep them comfortable in your absence. 🐾 I am available for drop ins, walks, and overnight stays. I work a typical 40 hours a week with flexibility to adjust my schedule as needed. I’ve worked for the same company for 27 years and would love to build a steady group of fur friends so I can leave the corporate world and do what I actually love! 🩷 I love to stimulate your dog mentality and physically. I’m an expert ball thrower (just ask my Kato) and I enjoy walking neighborhoods and sometimes adding a little jog. If their not into adventure I’m also great at cuddling on the couch or floor, giving all the belly scratches and just being present for comfort and security.

About: I know it can be nerve racking to find someone you can trust to take care if your pet like you would. That’s why I started pet sitting! I want to provide peace of mind to owners by providing the same routine for your pet and updating you daily. I have experience caring for all types of animals; dogs, cats, chickens and reptiles. All sizes, special diets, oral medications, whatever care your pet’s need! If you have a dog or cat that doesn’t “like” people, I’m your girl! I am a full time student at Ball State which makes my schedule pretty flexible throughout the week and weekend to be able to drop in on your pet. I will care for your home like I would care for mine. I’ll make sure windows and doors are locked before leaving. Ensuring your pet is secure and comfortable! When you return, you’ll never know that I was there. Everything will be as you left it or better!

FAQs for Dog Walking - New Columbus

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 1,781 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New Columbus. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

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 New Columbus. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in New Columbus.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Columbus. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
