“My luna adjusted amazingly! You could tell instantly Donald was a dog lover. He has a perfect spot for my protective Luna. She loved Donald. All the way 5 star visit.”

“Heather was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment I dropped my dog off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. She was warm, friendly, and so communicative throughout the entire day. I received regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease and made me feel connected while I was away. My pup had an amazing time playing and clearly felt right at home in her care. It’s easy to see how much Heather loves what she does, and that energy really shines through. I’ll definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend her doggy daycare services to anyone looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their pets!”

About: Our dogs have always been family and I can't recall any time in my entire life when I haven't had a dog at my side, sometimes two or three. I've had dogs of all sizes and energy levels. The longest boarding was for two months while the pup parent traveled in Asia. I've had dogs on my small ranch in NV and we rode trails together. They moved with me to CO and we enjoyed the mountains and front range together. I drove cross-country many times with my dogs, stayed in hotels and visited friends and family with them. My dogs are always a priority in all we do and I will care for your pups as I do mine. Be assured that I will follow any special instructions you give to provide your pet a safe, happy, stress-free stay. I recently rescued a deaf puppy who was in the middle of the road, and took care of her until a new, loving home was secured. I checked on her later and she is happy with her people and dog family. I am retired and always home. I spend my days gardening, cooking, squirrel and bird-watching, helping at church, and making greeting cards. My two dogs are with me the entire day. We will give your pup lots of company and love. I prefer to sit for one client at a time and max two dogs at a time. I look forward to meeting you and your pups. It's a good day any day that you meet new friends with fur. They bring joy to life. I have a 1/2 acre and a huge fenced yard for play and romping. Your dog will not be put outside for any length of time without my oversight. I am frequently out in the yard, relaxing, weeding, planting and pruning. Safety is number one and focused, pleasant care are my priorities. I want to be sure that the pups have my undivided attention. My two small dogs and I will give your pup lots of company assuring that he or she is acclimated and gets to know us. Our home is comfortable and happy. Does your pup enjoy endless belly rubs? Mine do and I have plenty to share. I prefer to sit for one client and max two dogs at a time. Photos of your pup's day are provided, if requested. I feed my dogs twice a day and give them one treat after their meals. I will feed your dogs at the time of day you prefer. We will only give your pup treats that you provide. I will follow your feeding schedule and administer meds if needed. My early career was 20 years as a hospital clinical laboratory scientist and then as a director. I've medicated my dogs and horses and given shots, so I know all the techniques needed to administer meds for your dog. Be assured, I recognize a dog's body language if in pain, stressed, or sick and will notify you immediately of any serious issues. I will follow your instructions if vet services are needed. My senior dog, Vivvie requires a special diet, so I make homemade dog food, veterinarian approved. No table scraps for her or for dogs in my care.

About: Hi, I’m Amanda! I have several years of professional experience working with dogs in boarding and daycare environments, with a strong focus on behavior, safety, and low-stress handling. I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs, administering medications, following special routines, and working with dogs that benefit from a calmer environment. My background has taught me the importance of understanding each dog’s individual needs and adjusting care accordingly. I also carry pet care insurance in addition to Rover’s protections and believe in clear, honest communication so owners can feel confident while they’re away. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I work from home, which allows me to spend the majority of my day with the dogs in my care rather than being away at a traditional 9-to-5 job. My schedule is built around feeding routines, walks, enrichment, potty breaks, cleaning, and individual attention. While I occasionally leave for errands or appointments, dogs are not routinely left alone for a full workday. I provide care in a calm, structured home environment designed to help dogs feel safe and comfortable while away from home. Dogs are supervised, managed thoughtfully, and given appropriate opportunities for activity and rest throughout the day. I prioritize low-stress handling, safe management practices, and predictable routines that help dogs settle in successfully. Each dog’s care is adjusted based on their age, temperament, energy level, and individual needs.

“Jennifer was an excellent host to my pup Luna. I received photos of Luna playing in her yard and having a great time around her other dogs. Highly recommend her if you’re ever in the area.”

Wilson J.

“Harley had so much fun. They communicated with me during the day and sent photos.”

Mariah W.

“We did a meet and greet prior to first day and I appreciated that so much. My dog was interested in Rebekah which is a great sign! He enjoyed his first day today playing care free! He came home ready to nap!”

Cierra P.

“Lexie is awesome! I felt totally comfortable coming in from out of town and being able to drop my dog at her home during my stay in Columbus. She has two very sweet dogs that were kind to Droopy and a fenced in back yard. I highly recommend.”

About: My name is Grace and I am a 19 year old pre med student. I am hoping to earn a little extra to help pay for classes! I have grown up with pets my whole life and have always loved having them around. However after my past dog Beau past away I felt no desire to have another but missed the affection so I would love to provide temporary care and love for your fur babies! I am currently a part time student and worker so I have plenty of time to care for your babies! I am available anytime, any day for some extra care! I have a fenced in yard with a ton of room for running and playing. Along with a home they can roam about as they please! I can crate your babies if need be but it is absolutely your choice!

About: Growing up, my family always had at least one dog, if not multiple. We have also had a couple cats. We currently have a black Lab named Luna. She is 5 years old and full of energy. We make homemade dog food for her and I’d be happy to share our recipe! Our fenced in backyard offers a large play area for your dog to run around and play. I have been house and dog/cat-sitting for over 10 years. I have experience with feeding, administering medications, walking, playing, brushing, as well as other household chores, as needed by my clients. I am an active person. I love running or walking with dogs, playing frisbee, fetch, and other activities. My day starts with caring for my dogs in the morning. I work from home so the dogs get frequent potty breaks and playtime. After work, I am home most evenings to care for your dog including walks. We have a fenced in backyard and a friendly black lab who loves to make new friends to play with in our backyard. Working from home means your dog won’t be left alone for an extended time period. We have an extra kennel for your kennel trained dog.

About: As a dedicated dog owner who has personally utilized Rover services, I understand the importance of finding a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for your furry family member. My positive experiences as a client have inspired me to offer the same level of attentive and loving care to others. I am reliable, caring, and committed to treating your pets as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for in your absence. Whether it’s providing regular updates, maintaining routines, or offering plenty of playtime and affection, I strive to give both pets and their owners peace of mind. I do not currently work so your dog will have plenty of attention and time for exercise while they are staying with us. They will get plenty of time outside from playing to walks as well as potty breaks. We do not have a fenced yard but we live in a quiet neighborhood with a large yard next to the cul de sac. We use proper leashes when necessary and have room for indoor play. Our dogs have always been part of our family.

“Awesome visit. Quick and smooth drop off and pick up. Very friendly and attentive to my pup. Great communication. We will visit again. Highly recommend this sitter.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters are my enthusiasm, I love all dogs! I use to work for a pet shop in Columbus Georgia. Pet care fits into my routine through daily feeding, walks, playtime, and love, plus weekly grooming, cleaning, and health checks to keep them happy and healthy. I provide daily feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, grooming, and medication if needed ensuring pets feel safe, much loved, and comfortable whether at home or yours.

About: I’ve spent over 15 years caring for a wide variety of animals. What sets me apart is my experience with sick, senior, and disabled pets. Some of my own animals have special needs, so I understand how important it is to provide gentle, attentive care. I’m calm, patient, and confident with everything from giving meds to handling nervous or medically fragile pets. Whether your pet is young, old, or needs extra TLC, I’ve got it covered. Animals are a part of my everyday life—I care for my own pets daily. Feeding, cleaning, medication, and quality time are all part of my routine. I naturally plan my days around animal care, so adding your pet to my schedule is easy and something I truly enjoy. Caring for animals isn’t a chore for me—it’s just part of who I am. Whether in my home or yours, I create a safe, loving, and relaxed environment. At my home, I have a fully privacy-fenced yard for safe outdoor time and my own friendly dogs who love to play and keep new friends company. I stick to your pet’s routine—feeding, meds, potty breaks, and play—while giving them the same care and attention I give my own animals. I’m experienced with pets of all kinds and always make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved.

“Bailey came home, played, and then fell asleep quick which I assume meant she had a great day. We received a bunch of pics and were happy with the service provided.”

About: In my opinion, dogs are the purest form of love. I've owned a dog for the past 15 years, and I honestly couldn't imagine my life without her. I spend most of my free time in the yard reading while Ruby explores the fenced-in area. We also enjoy being lazy inside. I do not have kids, so I treat my dog like my child. As a teacher, I’m on summer break from June 2 through July 17! When school is in session, my work day ends around 4 and then I'm free after that. I normally take my dog for a walk before work (between 6:30-7:30) and in the evening anytime between 4:30-9:00. I am available throughout the week and on weekends. I love animals, and I love caring for them. I promise to treat your animal like my own. I am currently on summer break and home every day!! I work full time from 7:30-4:30 every weekday. When I get home from work, my evenings are free and open to providing time for pets. I have a small fenced-in backyard. We live in a townhome that is within a quiet and safe neighborhood. There is a park nearby that is great for walking dogs.

About: Hi! I’m Alexis, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so I know they aren’t “just pets”, they’re family. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and cuddly, or somewhere in between. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, and to care for them just as I would my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry best friend, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages to give you peace of mind. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup and become someone you can trust whenever you need a helping hand! I'm a recent college graduate so I am home fulltime and have more than enough time available to love on your fur baby! There is nothing better than having furbaby love! I do not have a fenced in backyard but will be more than happy to take your furry baby on a walk, welcome them into my apartment and/or drop in and see how they are doing!
