About: Hiiii, my name is Gianna! I live in Gordon/Ohio city area. I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I understand how important routines are and will always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions closely. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, or just companionship, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they need. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding, and can provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. Because I’m home most of the time, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I have a large fenced-in yard with a privacy fence, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run and play. I also have a friendly dog who enjoys company and helps visiting pets feel comfortable. My home has no carpet (just a few rugs), so accidents are never a big issue, and I always keep a clean, pet-safe environment. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely and provide regular updates and photos so you feel comfortable while you’re away.
“Amanda was awesome. I made a last minute request and she came through, came on time, sent pics and gave my doggie a much needed long walk. She was friendly and kind. A real gem!”

“Joe saved the day! Have a chi and Great Dane who is hard to handle. She knocked my husband down three times attempting to chase other dogs. Joe is strong, kind, professional, reliable and knows dogs. So happy with 3x a week walks.”

About: I can accommodate mornings, mid-day and evening times depending on the day. If you’re unsure just ask! :) I have several years of experience caring for cats and dogs and understand how important communication and updates are when you trust me with your pet. (Currently not accepting care inside my home) can accommodate mornings, mid-day and evening times depending on the day. I have several years of experience caring for cats and dogs and understand how important communication and updates are when you trust me with your pet. (Currently not accepting care inside my home) We have plenty of space and toys to have fun inside, as well as a walkable neighborhood for us to explore. I have multiple dog beds for sharing and an extra crate that can be used if needed.

“Katherine was awesome - had a need pop up for multiple days of walks needed , on short notice and Katherine was quick to respond and took great care of our French bulldog - thank you and look forward to future bookings !!”


“Makenna was tasked with walking my very energetic, young, German Shepherd. She did not disappoint! My dog seemed to love walking with her, and Makenna has been very respectful, patient, and loving to my dog even though they just met! Makenna follows instructions to a T, is very thorough with providing me with updates, and has the utmost respect to your property and your pet! If Makenna can handle the energy of my dog, and provide it with good mid day safe exercise, she can do it for any dog. I would highly recommend Makenna for anyone’s pet care needs!”

About: ’ve been around dogs my whole life, my grandma trained therapy dogs, so I learned early how to care for pets with patience and structure. I’ve looked after both a Golden Retriever puppy and an elderly Shih Tzu with health needs, including meds and slow walks. I’m based in Gordon Square, work fully remote, and am super flexible for last-minute bookings, routine care, and giving your pet all the love they deserve. I work fully remote, so pet care fits into my routine really easily. I love starting and breaking up my day with walks, check-ins, or playtime — it keeps me active and gives me an excuse to get outside. I keep a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m able to adjust around your pet’s needs, whether that’s a midday potty break, an early morning walk, or evening feedings. I’m comfortable caring for pets in both my home and theirs — my goal is always to make your dog feel like they’ve got a second home (and a new bestie). In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep things familiar. At my place, it’s calm, clean, and cozy with plenty of attention, outdoor time, and space to chill. Wherever I am, your dog’s comfort comes first
“Shandra scheduled a meet and greet before our walk to get comfortable with Gizmo and so Gizmo could get comfortable with her. We talked about his over excitement and some commands I'm working on teaching him. She was able to incorporate the commands into her 1st walk with him and reports he did very well! Will book again!”

About: I intentionally take one dog, or one dog family, at a time because I want every pup staying with me to receive the attention, care, and love they deserve. ❤️ I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. They’re family, and you want to know they’re not just being watched. You want to know they’re being cared for, understood, and loved. That’s exactly what I try to provide. Your dog gets to stay in a comfortable home environment, become part of our routine, and receive plenty of individual attention instead of being one of several dogs competing for a sitter’s time. ❤️ Dogs of All Ages and Needs One of the things I especially love about caring for dogs is getting to know what makes each individual dog comfortable and happy. I’ve had dogs throughout my life, including senior dogs, so I understand that not every pup needs the same kind of care. Some dogs want to play all day, while others are happiest curled up beside you. Some need extra patience and reassurance, while others just want to know when dinner is coming. I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs and dogs who need a little extra help, including following feeding routines, administering oral medications, and keeping up with individual care instructions. If your dog has medication, supplements, mobility limitations, a specific feeding schedule, anxiety, or simply needs a little more patience and attention, I’m happy to work with their normal routine. My goal is to make their stay feel as familiar and comfortable as possible. 🏡 What Your Dog’s Stay Looks Like: Because I keep boarding intentionally small, I can give your dog the individual attention that can be difficult to provide in a busy boarding environment. Depending on your dog’s personality and routine, their stay may include: 🐶 One on one attention and companionship 🛋️ Couch cuddles and cozy naps 🎾 Playtime and enrichment 🌳 Supervised outdoor time 🥰 Lots of affection and reassurance 🍖 Meals, treats, and supplements according to their normal routine 💊 Medication administration when needed 🛏️ Comfortable sleeping arrangements 📸 Regular photos and updates for you I’m happy to follow the routines you already have at home. The more I know about your dog, the better I can care for them. 🐾 Why One Dog at a Time? I’m not trying to fill my house with as many boarding dogs as possible. I chose to keep my boarding small because I want to actually know the dog I’m caring for. I want to know their personality, their favorite things, their quirks, what makes them nervous, how they like to sleep, what their normal routine looks like, and what makes their tail start going a mile a minute. That also means I can give extra attention when a dog needs it, whether that’s an energetic play session, a quiet afternoon, an older dog who needs to take things slower, or simply someone to sit beside them when they miss their family. 🐕 Meet Kenobi: Of course, no stay at our house would be complete without Kenobi, my 4 year old yellow Lab and resident Buddy. Kenobi is goofy, affectionate, laid back, and absolutely convinced that every couch in the house belongs to him. He’s always excited to make a new friend and loves having another dog around, but your dog is still the VIP. 🐾 A Little About Me: I’ve always had a huge love for dogs, especially Labs. My dogs have been an incredibly important part of my life, and caring for them has taught me that dogs aren’t just pets. They each have their own personalities, needs, routines, and ways of communicating. That’s what I love about boarding: getting to know the dog, not just watching the dog. I want you to feel comfortable knowing your pup is somewhere safe, cared for, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away. And yes, I’ll probably send you entirely too many pictures. 📸 My goal isn’t simply to give your dog somewhere to stay. I want them to feel like they’re spending a little time at their second home. ❤️ 🐶 One dog at a time. 🏡 One comfortable home. ❤️ Personalized care for every pup. Because your dog deserves more than somewhere to stay. They deserve to feel at home. I am currently working part-time for a real estate agency as an admin. I can work from home or in the office so my schedule is flexible. My dog is on a routine from walks to feedings and I do my best to stick to it everyday. I will always be prompt and timely to make sure your pets stay on schedule as well.

About: Hi. My name is Kim and I have been surrounded by and loved all types of animals since the day I was born. I've raised, fostered and lived with all types of dogs, cats and other pets, mostly rescues, so I have tons of experience when it comes to understanding and respecting their individual personalities, needs, etc. Over the years some of my pets have had some serious health issues (including cancer), so I know what that is like too, and have no problem caring for dogs and cats with special needs and am meticulous in following directions concerning medications and special care. My pets are loved and are part of my family and as such I only ever treat them with the utmost kindness and love. Please by assured that I will show the same love and respect to your pets. In fact, I look forward to becoming their new favorite buddy! I am extremely reliable and for sure one of the biggest animal lovers you will ever meet. I love to walk and go to the park but am also happy to just hang out and spend time with your older or more mellow dog(s). I am big on communication so whenever the situation warrants or whenever you desire it, you will always get updates, photos, etc. so you can be sure that your pets are safe, happy and well-cared for.

About: I’m a dog mom to three rescues (a dachshund, pit mix, and Great Pyrenees/Shepherd mix) so I’m very comfortable with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve also volunteered at City Dogs for the past year, which has given me experience with dogs of all temperaments, including anxious and high energy pups. I previously cared for a senior rescue dog, so I understand the extra patience, gentleness, and attention they need. I’m also a nurse, which means I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and very attentive to safety and well-being. I also have a 14-year-old cat at home, so I’m comfortable caring for cats and understand their unique personalities, routines, and needs. I treat every dog like my own and focus on making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine! I work part-time as a nurse four days a week and am typically home by around 2pm. This allows me to be available for afternoon walks, evening drop ins, and most weekends, plus I have one weekday fully open each week. For house sitting, the longest I’m away from your home is about 8 hours (including my commute), and I always prioritize making sure pets are comfortable, safe, and well cared for while I’m there. I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay in the environment they know and feel most comfortable in. I do my best to stick closely to their usual routines so everything feels familiar and low stress. I’m very mindful of safety, whether that’s being aware on walks, keeping doors and gates secure, or making sure pets are always supervised. I follow all care instructions carefully and treat your home and pets with the same respect I would my own. I also send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing!!
About: I am my friends and family go to dog sitter & walker! I am new to the app and so excited to start drop ins, walks, overnight stays and more! Dogs bring me so much joy & I know how much joy walking brings them! 🥰 I currently work fully remote and have a flexible job so am able to take your doggies out for a walk or break if needed! I love being with animals and spending time just hanging out if they are left being alone. I also enjoy walking dogs as well as playing fetch with them.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ohio City
**Five Stars! Exceptional Care for Gracie! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** Katie took wonderful care of my sweet Gracie while I was away for three very busy days of business meetings. Although my schedule didn't always allow me to respond to her thoughtful messages and photo updates, I can't express how reassuring it was to receive them. Seeing Gracie looking so happy, comfortable, and content gave me tremendous peace of mind and allowed me to focus on my work, knowing she was in excellent hands. When I returned home, Gracie was in wonderful spirits, and my home was just as clean, organized, and in order as I had left it. It was clear that Katie had taken exceptional care of both Gracie and my home. Katie is thoughtful, attentive, dependable, and genuinely caring. I'm so grateful for the love and attention she gave Gracie, and I wouldn't hesitate to trust her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their beloved pet like family!

Chloe came through super last minute for me to walk my dog! Very reliable, experienced, and stayed in contact with me the entire time! She also sent photos which I really appreciated.
