About: I grew up with dogs, cats and horses. I've taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was ten years old. Currently I own a cat but am comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am free on evenings during the week and day time and evenings on most weekends. I am in Columbus for most holidays and here to help you enjoy your time away knowing your pet is well taken care of. My home is not sized to fit other animals but I have a car and am happy to drive to your house to take care of your pet
“Miss Penny was so professional and personal right from the beginning. She took such great care of our pups and sent tons of pictures. I will absolutely ask Miss Penny to watch our doggos again, and I would recommend her to anyone confidently.”
“Doug was an excellent communicator. He left our house clean and our dog happy. He sent us photos and updates, and quickly responded to my texts. He even offered to stop back over when we were running behind.”
“Deanna is the dog walker we've been looking for! She was able to help us last minute and was absolutely amazing. Her communication was perfect, we never wondered how our pups were doing or what services she was providing. She is our new go-to dog walker, and would recommend anybody.”
“We are so grateful for Sandy taking excellent care of our house and most importantly our high maintenance pets! It was obvious they were all happy and comfortable while we were away! It seems like she really got to know each of them and helped them feel safe when we weren’t there. Sandy took the time to send us detailed updates and pictures of everyone each day, which really helped us feel secure. She was an extremely respectful house guest and left the place in better shape than when she got there.”
“Ashly was literally the best!! We was able to go on vacation and not stress about our fur babies. We got multiple updates and photos daily which I love and the dogs looked so happy. She even took them to the park twice!! We can’t say enough good things about Ashly. If you are looking for someone to care and love your fur baby as you do she is your girl!!!”
“Madison was great! She took care of our dog, rabbit, and fish tanks for a week in our home and everything was in perfect shape when we came back. We got daily updates and photos of the animals and they all looked like they were having a great time. We will definitely have Madison back!”
“Miriam did a fantastic job taking care of goose and Delta. She was reliable, on time, and fantastic with communication. Set my mind at ease while I was away! I would happily refer her to anyone who needs a dog or pet sitter and will definitely be using her again!”
“Ellie did a fantastic job looking after our cat for a week. He’s shy with new people but warmed up to her quickly. Ellie’s communication was great. She left us regular updates with pictures. Would highly recommend and use her services again.”
“Maddie stayed at our home overnight and took great care of our 3 bullies. From breakfast and dinner to cuddles and toys, she even helped us through a difficult situation during her stay. Really appreciate that she was here to care for our pups while we were away!!!”
“Cody was amazing! It was his first time w our two dogs. One is a senior Pom mix on insulin and one is a puppy, Bernese Mountain dog. He came over twice before he was actually here staying at our house, for 1 week. Our dogs immediately loved him. We taught him how to give the shots to our senior dog and he did great! He kept in constant communication w texts and pics. We will get him again and continue to utilize him, as he was awesome!”
“Aaron was absolutely wonderful! He shared regular updates and photos and went above and beyond on caring not only for our pets but also for our home! We’ve already rebooked Aaron for another stay and can’t recommend him highly enough!”
“Nicole was great with our cats! We're transitioning out cats' diets. Not only was Nicole very flexible with our guidelines, but she was also able to help answer all of our curiosity questions as needed cat owners, ourselves!”

“Our pup and kitty LOVE Kaelin!! We’ve had her pet sit for the past 2 Christmas breaks and she’s been wonderful. Our dog is very high maintenance (kidney issues, IBS, and he’s blind) and it’s such a relief knowing he’s well taken care of while we’re away.”
Obetz pet parents share their Rover experiences
Hannah did an amazing job with our dog Otto. She was communicative, transparent and she really put my mind at ease about leaving him for the week. It’s a great feeling to find someone you can trust to stay with your pup. We will definitely re-book with her again in the future! Thank you Hannah for your compassion and care for our silly boy!
