“Taylor was prompt in her replies, even when I did a last minute booking! She was great with the kiddos, they were taken care of very well. My dog Vali got nice walks and lots of pets. Taco, my cat definitely appreciated the timely meals 😆, churu treats ☺️ and play time. Definitely will continue with her for future bookings.”

“Merri was so fantastic to coordinate and communicate with, and I'm sure Yuka loved her visits because he got to go outside! Merri is trustworthy and I appreciate the effort into doing a meet and greet to familiarize herself with Yuka.”

“I was very nervous about leaving my cats alone for a long time, and this was my first time trying Rover. I reached out to Leann to watch my two cats with shorter notice, and she was very responsive and friendly. She did a great job of making sure my cats were taken care of when I was out of town for a week! She also sent adorable pics and updates of them after checking in. I'll definitely book with her again and I'd highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a great cat sitter! 🙂”

“Paige and Cindy were absolutely wonderful! My cat LOVED them and I came home to a purring, happy kitty after my trip. Thank you so much for looking after my baby with such care, and for providing him with so many cuddles! I would absolutely rebook! ❤️”

“Really grateful for Jessica and the care she provided my dog on late notice, especially considering he was feeling sick at the time. I will certainly look to request Jessica in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m Tracy — a lifelong animal lover with a Masters and PhD in environmental policy from The Ohio State University. My background reflects how deeply I care about the well-being of all creatures, great and small. Caring for pets isn’t a side gig for me; it’s something that’s been part of my life since childhood. I grew up with three wonderful dogs of various sizes, and as an adult I’ve had a large dog of my own, two small dogs, and a cat. One of my pups was adopted from a shelter, two came to me from foster parents, and my cat was a stray who chose our home — so I’m very comfortable with pets who have unique personalities, histories, or special needs. I’m gentle, patient, and very responsible. Whether your pet needs a long walk, calm companionship, or lots of playtime, I tailor my care to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. You can expect great communication, attention to detail, and a genuine love for your furry family member. I would be honored to earn your trust and care for your pets like they’re my own. 💛🐶🐾 I'm currently a home-maker, so I have a very flexible schedule to take care of your pet's needs. I have openings 7 days a week, mornings, afternoons and evenings. I prefer to come to your home to tend to your pet. I do have a fenced in yard for my dogs, but my terrier mix can be a little bossy. I'm always open to having your pet meet my terrier though if you'd like your fur baby to stay for a visit at our house.
“Maggie was excellent with my cat who can be a bit shy with new people. Quick, clear communication. Will definitely have Maggie care for my girl again! :)”

About: I grew up with dogs and once I started my own family, over the years we welcomed three dogs and two cats into the mix. With my kids having flown the coop, I have time, energy, and lots of love to give! For three weeks in July, I will be living at our home in Columbus, Oh and be available for drop-in visits and dog walks. Eventually, we will be living here full time and I would love to have some Ohio puppy friends:-) During the school year, we live in Alexandria, VA and I coach a variety of sports throughout the school year which keeps me busy later in the early afternoon and early evenings for a few hours during the week. The rest of the day, my time is my own and I'm available for walks, and hangouts with all the fur babies. I am extremely organized and responsible. Rest assured that any animals in my care will be treated with the all the love, care and dignity that they deserve.
“Abby was very responsive and responsible. Both our pups loved her, she got a lot of pictures while they went to dog park to play. She even managed to get them pose for super cute pictures. Would hire her again and again.”

“Rachel is a great sitter! Our puppy loves Rachel’s visits and she does a great job playing and getting her energy out. Rachel is very communicative and willing to go the extra mile for your pet. Definitely would recommend her!”

About: As an independent contractor, I make my own schedule. This allows me to operate on a very flexible calendar. In addition to being the go-to care taker for the pets in my circle, I also have a lifestyle that allows for me to go the extra mile and hangout longer, play more, and go for longer walks! I currently make my own schedule. So pet care fits in tremendously. I work as a freelance film and commercial laborer. Being in charge of my calendar allows me to schedule accordingly to take care of your pet! Having two cats of my own, while I can't house animals at my own residence, I am very familiar with the needs of pets. Playtime, treats, head scratches, and the like. I love every animal deeply and with a great respect. I treat every space with the utmost dignity and try to keep as small of a footprint as possible when entering someone's home. I have been house sitting, dog/cat watching for many years now. I look forward to ensuring you have an enjoyable, trustworthy experience when working with me.
“She was amazing! One of my dogs had an accident and she cleaned up and everything! I normally board my dogs but it was so much easier having someone drop in and care for them.”

About: I have been a vet assistant, I’ve worked with horses, cats, dogs, birds, lizards, and snakes. I always go the extra mile and believe that pets deserve the very best. I was a vet assistant and specialized in “difficult “ pets. I will go at your pets speed, whatever helps them be more comfortable. If your pet needs more time to adjust, I will give them that. I take care of your babies as if they were mine, I will give them love and attention with boundaries. I specialize in difficult cases. If your pet needs a little extra time and attention that’s no problem.

Emma did an amazing job taking care of our two pups. She was very thorough and gave great updates throughout our time away including pictures at each visit. We really appreciated her help taking care of our pets especially on such short notice and despite one of our dogs requiring daily medication. Thanks Emma!!

McCall is THE BEST! We will definitely be rebooking her in the future. We had a bat in our house and she captured it and placed it outside for us!! Our kitties loved her as well. She even stopped an extra day because she was nearby. Thanks so much McCall, we appreciate you!

With having a skittish cat, Kelly goes above and beyond to make my kitty feel comfortable. Luna does not run and hide and actually hangs out- indicating Kelly’s patience and devotion to making pets feel safe and comfortable. I will always try to book Kelly and suggest you all do the same!

Thea is a favorite in our family. I have 3 cats and 2 are very shy but Thea makes them so comfortable and brings them out of their shells. In addition, Thea follows all notes and directions and is a pro at pet care. She takes this job very seriously and it shows. We love our pets so much and I cannot begin to describe the relief we feel when we know someone like Thea is taking care of them while we travel 💖💖💖💖
