About: My family has had pets my whole life. I’m a big animal lover! I’ve never met a dog. I didn’t love. Let me help you take care of and love your pets too! I have a part-time to full-time schedule. Availability will be updated two weeks ahead once I have my work schedule. I will usually still be available before or after these shifts. I have a pet with epilepsy, so I have more than just basic pet care experience. I make sure every pet gets all the love and care that they need. Im responsible and great at problem-solving and multitasking. I would be a great fit for your pet!

About: I AM A CERTIFIED PET TRAINER.... I have TONS of energy for walking dogs. Average dogs walks with me are anywhere from 1/2 a mile to 2 miles and you will be able to see our route on Strava. I have had and taken care of dogs over the years and love them all! From therapy animals I have trained with gentleness and slow walks to fast walking/slow jog dogs! Sometimes all dogs need a little time outside to enjoy. I can walk dogs or do doggy drop in visits or basic command dog training. You can get a hold of me through Rover and I can check my availability that week. I will let you know in a 24 hour notice I can walk or not. Dogs are need the outdoors to run and play just like us so the more time out the better! Fist off, I AM A CERTIFIED DOG TRAINER. and I LOVE walking dogs! I’m big on one on one time with a dog especially during basic training time if you would like me for that along with drop in visits or dog walking. In other words, I won’t be holding 5 leashes on dog walks with different dogs! I prefer to walk most dogs that are active at LEAST a mile to get them in the open air and get those little doggy steps in! I do use an app that I will take a picture of at the end of the walk so you can see exactly where we went and how far! I’m in Pickerington and it’s a great spot for dog walking! (I can slow it down too and just relax and play in the yard if you have a slower, more relaxed dog) I also do cat care, fish, hamsters, you name it! Thanks!

About: Need someone reliable to care for your dog while you’re at work, on vacation, or away from home? I’m here to help! I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs of all ages, from young puppies to senior dogs. As a dog owner and breeder, I have hands-on experience with potty training, crate training, basic obedience, administering routines, and understanding canine behavior. My primary focus is providing care in your dog’s own home where they are most comfortable. I offer drop-in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, walks, medication reminders, and companionship while you’re away. Staying in their familiar environment helps reduce stress and keeps your dog’s daily routine consistent. During each visit, I’ll make sure your dog receives plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and loving care. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a midday walk, or multiple daily visits, I can customize my services to fit your needs. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe and well cared for. As a dog owner myself, I understand that every dog is unique, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am pretty flexible with my day and have the ability to tend to your dogs needs. I am able to come to your house to dog walk or simply just let your dog outside to prevent accidents I have a fenced in yard. I do have dogs of my own, i have French bulldogs and a goldendoodle male. I can only accept neutered males in boarding . I will have open communication and will provide regular updates.

About: I have two cats that have a good relationship with me and each other. I frequently find them snuggled up and/or licking each other! I am able to administer medication both in pill and syringe form. I also have a love for dogs and have plenty of experience walking them! I always have time to play with my cats, feed them, change their litter boxes, you name it! I give them love every day, whether that be scratches, being held, kisses, or anything they like! I have a flexible schedule and would be happy to help you with your pet/pets' needs! I have two cats that love meeting new ones, but they can be set aside from your cat if needed. I have toys to play with cats, including catnip sacks, a cat toy fishing pole, and a laser pointer.

Ava was great with our dogs. She was very understanding on their needs and excitement. She provided updates and when the dogs didn’t want to walk, she still played with them. We will definitely continue to use her for any future needs.

Paige was great, flexible and helpful. I contacted Paige to help walk our 11 month old Bernese Mountain Dog, while I visited my dad in the hospital. My dad passed away the next day. Paige helped me navigate the app and walks. Paige was super flexible about picking Odin up at our house or my moms. Odin loves and went crazy when he sees Paige. I’m not one to hire a dog walker but I’m a time of uncertain our pup was happy to get outside and get done exercise. I love reviving the pics. We would definitely hire Paige again

About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets for the most of my life and genuinely love spending time with animals. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they are away. I’m patient, dependable, attentive to routines, and focused on making pets feel safe and comfortable in my care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or older, I’ll treat them like family and provide the love and attention they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks on most weekends and weekdays, and I always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a clean, pet-friendly home with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and two friendly dogs that enjoy companionship and play. I can also crate your dog if preferred or needed for their routine. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and individual needs to help pets feel relaxed and at home. I’ll care for your pet with patience, love, and the same attention I would give my own animals.

About: There has never been a time in my life that I can’t remember not having a dog, I have owned many breeds, from a 2lb Pomeranian to a Great Pyrenees, from puppies to seniors I enjoy them all. Hi there! I took a short break from Rover for a few months, but I’m excited to be back and accepting bookings again. I’m now home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! I have a fenced backyard and three dogs to help keep your dog company. We have a built in doggie door so your dog will be able to go in and out as they want to, should they choose to use it.

About: Trusted pet sitter with years of rescue & foster experience. Specializing in cats and small-to-medium dogs—including terriers, labs, retrievers & hounds. As a long-time animal lover, foster, and rescue volunteer, I understand how much your pets mean to you because mine mean the world to me, too. Over the years, I’ve welcomed dogs and cats from all walks of life into my home, offering patience, care, and love while they wait for their families, whether for the weekend or forever. At home, I share life with two wonderful companions: Gus, my gentle Maine Coon mix who became my gardening sidekick after finding me one summer in the Franklin Park neighborhood, and Dennis, my sweet and shy miniature poodle whom I fostered and then adopted. I’ve fostered several dogs this year and have loved and learned from them all. Each has their own story, and together they remind me daily of the joy pets bring into our lives. I’ve cared for many animals over the years, from Jack Russell mixes Daisy and her daughter Pearl, to a big-hearted hound named Andy, to rescued puppy-mill survivors like Dennis. My rescue work includes everything from daily feeding and walks to helping shy or fearful dogs feel safe again. I even keep a carrier in my car just in case I come across a lost animal because I believe in helping wherever I can. I’ve also had unique opportunities, like caring for two cavapoos during a stay in Washington State. Experiences like these deepened my love for one-on-one pet care, especially calm walks, drop-in visits, and creating safe, low-stress environments. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. Between caring for my own pets and fostering through rescue, my days already include walks, playtime, feedings, and plenty of cuddles. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to fit in drop-in visits and walks throughout the day or evening. Weekends are often open for longer visits or extra time with your pets. Because I live with both cats and a small dog, I’m experienced at balancing different needs and personalities, and I always bring that same patience and consistency to every pet I care for. Whether it’s a quick midday walk, a calm evening check-in, or weekend companionship, I make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and part of my daily rhythm. I care for my own pets — and those in my home — with love, attentiveness, and respect for their unique routines. I follow my housemate’s preferences when caring for her cat, just as I did in my previous home with three beloved dogs, each with their own needs and quirks. I bring that same level of care to every client visit. Whether I'm walking your pup or dropping in to check on your cat, I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and happy in your absence. Providing a detailed list of your pet’s routine and preferences helps me deliver the best possible care and gives us both peace of mind. Finally, I’m currently pursuing Red Cross Pet First Aid certification to provide an extra layer of safety and peace of mind for the pets I care for. While I already bring years of foster and rescue experience, I believe in always learning more to give every pet the best possible care.

About: I’ve always been an animal person, I love all dogs and cats! Friends, family, and coworkers have relied on me watching, walking, feeding, and bathing their fur babies. I do work a full time job but I will always make time for your babies. I can take them for a walk and feed them in the morning and night, depending on the shift I work or if I’m off, I can let them out mid day as well. I have 2 spoiled cats, and they are super friendly with everyone. I have watched many animals (even goats!) for friends, family, and coworkers, which includes me walking, feeding, bathing, and letting them out. I will treat your fur baby as if they were mine!

About: Hello! I am a dog and small animal lover! I currently care for my senior dog at home, so I understand the extra love, patience, and attention older pets need, whether it's administering medication, assisting with mobility, or just offering a calm presence. I have experience with both big and small dogs, and I’m comfortable handling different energy levels, temperaments, and routines. Whether your pet loves long walks, snuggles on the couch, or anything in between, I’m here for it! In addition to dogs, I’m also comfortable caring for small animals like guinea pigs and understand their unique care routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you're away. I’m a college student on summer break, so I have plenty of time during the day to give your pet lots of attention and care. My schedule is pretty flexible throughout the week, and I’m happy to work with you to find the best times for walks, play, or sitting! In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable and safe in their familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, medication, playtime, or just company, I make sure your pet feels cared for and not alone while you're away. I’m also respectful of your space, keeping things tidy and secure. For pets with special needs, like senior dogs or small animals/fish, I take extra time to make sure they’re safe and happy. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands.

Jaz is a great communicator. She is professional, but also warm and pleasant and you can tell she loves pets and what she does. Plus my dog LOVES her which also tells you a lot. After using her to walk my dog while I recovered from surgery, I’ve scheduled some upcoming boarding for some vacation time. It’s such a relief to find not just a great sitter, but also a great person.

We really needed someone to help walk our dog Sadie. We greatly appreciate everything Emma has done for us. She walked her in the rain even longer than the scheduled time today. My wife and I definitely recommend her for any dog care and I am certain other animal care as well!
