Top rated Tri-South doggy day care sitters

“Jessica took fantastic care of my anxious boy. Updates and communication were awesome, and he had a great time with her! If you're looking for doggy care in Columbus I highly recommend her! We're not local, but if we're ever back in town Jessica will be my go-to.”

“I was so pleased with the services provided by Amber while watching my little one. She interacted with her wonderfully and gave her lots and lots of attention. Amber kept me updated with pictures and messages and I feel truly comfortable with leaving my dog with her, and I look forward to the next opportunity.”

“Sydney was a huge lifesaver when I needed someone to watch my dog while in town for a few days. She was awesome with my dog Atlas, who’s usually pretty skeptical of new people, and he loved playing with her dog Honey”
“Michelle was AMAZING! We have a 3 month old puppy and she was truly incredible with him. We got tons of updates and lots of pictures and videos. I highly recommend using Michelle to watch your fur baby - I will definitely be using her again!”

About: I’m a caring pet sitter with 5+ years’ experience and ASPCA training. I love all animals and specialize in puppy training, senior care, multi-pet homes, and pets with special needs, providing safe, loving care and regular updates. I provide structured and attentive care for every pet, ensuring their health, safety, and happiness. Daily, I handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or walks, playtime, enrichment, grooming touch-ups, and a calm bonding session to make pets feel loved and secure. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. Weekly, I focus on deeper tasks like grooming, cleaning habitats or litter boxes, socialization or training sessions, and tracking any medications or special care needs. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and thriving while maintaining a consistent, reliable routine. When caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment tailored to each animal’s needs. In your home, I follow your routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions, while keeping the space tidy and providing updates with photos. In my home, I create a calm, comfortable environment with separate areas for pets as needed, enrichment activities, supervised play, and gentle attention. I’m experienced with dogs, cats, small animals, multi-pet households, puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs, ensuring every animal feels secure, loved, and well cared for.

“Sox and I LOVE Dawn and Spike. Dawn takes the best care of our boy and we never have to worry, which is such a blessing. Spike is so much fun and Sox always comes home zonked. There really is no one better!”
“Amazing care as always. Ube was wagging his tail and didn't even look back at me when I dropped him off for daycare the last time. He is enjoying the pets and all his time in the backyard. ☺️”

“Matthew was great to work with. Very thoughtful and took pictures to keep me up to date. Hazel had a great time too which is my main goal when I need someone to watch her. Thank you for taking such good care of Hazel.”


“Megan did such an amazing job! I appreciated all of her communication and photos so much. Her assessment she gives in the beginning shows how knowledgeable she is and how much she cares. We will be back!”

“Simon was amazing with Hazel! He kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout the day. Hazel came home worn out from all the fun she had at Simon’s. We’re incredibly grateful for his patience, especially since Hazel is still learning her manners after we adopted her from the shelter a few months ago. Simon even went the extra mile by helping teach her commands. He’s been wonderful, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to him for care again in the future.”

About: I previously owned a dog walking and pet-sitting business for over four years, and I absolutely loved it! I walked dogs that ranged from 1-16 years of age, and administered oral medication and provided insulin to diabetic dogs. I have also fostered dogs four separate times, ages ranging from 1-6 years. I have 4 years of exotic animal care experience as well! I work from home full time on a very flexible schedule. I can move my daily plans around to fit your needs, and will update my availability to include changes ASAP. There is one other dog and two friendly cats in the home. My partner is experienced in animal husbandry and loves pets just as much as me. We are sure to give them plenty of love, patience, and attention! I can take furry friends on extra walks if requested, and I can send you pictures throughout your pets' stay!
“Michele is a very kind, animal loving, and extremely knowledgeable on pet care. With two days of day care in her home, my rescue puppy now is much more confident than she was before meeting Michele. She got plenty of exercise and attention!”

“Katie was amazing! Auggie had so much fun playing with all the other dogs and we loved the constant updates/pictures she sent us. We highly recommend her :)”


About: Being a senior makes me old school, like being exactly on time or a bit early. I subscribe to the Dog Whisperer tenet of being ALPHA and pack leader to dogs in my care. A dog in a pack is a happy dog. I only use positive reinforcement. Ex.: dog pulling on the leash can be fixed by changing directions every 4 steps to the left, walking in a square, this encourages the dog to slow down and watch his human. Dog hair is a welcome addition to a life well lived, that's why my dogs get furniture and bed privileges. One fact about my dogs i pay attention to is how many sips of water they take. On a very hot day I've seen 30-40. This helps me know easily how my pet is feeling so I can react accordingly. Maybe time to put the soft Frisbee away! I'm fully retired, and rise early, so morning walks are easy. Breakfast is next, and 1hr later another walk outside. I like to prep a bag to take to the park. My fav is Schiller Park in German Village. I don't own a pet currently, I've had some health issues that are now resolved. Having been an owner twice in my life has given me many many experiences so I am flexible.
Tri-South dog parents share their Rover experiences
Beth has been amazing! She’s been very accommodating with my ever changing schedule. She always makes sure to share pictures of penny throughout the day. Penny loves going to Beth’s house, and enjoys every bit of her stays. I definitely appreciate all Beth’s help with penny throughout our stay in Columbus! Would highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter! Thank you so much Beth!

This was my first time ever having a dog sitter and Michelle made it such an easy and great experience. Michelle provided lots of pictures and videos and made sure my Aussie got plenty of attention and exercise. I highly recommend Michelle and would definitely leave my dog with her again.

Jessica took fantastic care of my anxious boy. Updates and communication were awesome, and he had a great time with her! If you're looking for doggy care in Columbus I highly recommend her! We're not local, but if we're ever back in town Jessica will be my go-to.

Kaleigh and Connor were lifesavers! I travel with my pup Rocky for work and it’s always a little nerve wracking to agree to a new situation. I felt totally comfortable leaving Rocky…. and completely convinced the next day when she (uncharacteristically!) bounced into their home and up on the couch with Connor. 🥹 Their pups are sweet little ladies and I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again! Thank you! 🥰
Hallie is an amazing sitter! She brought me so much peace of mind from the second I met her! This was my first time leaving my puppy with a sitter and I will definitely be using Hallie again. Her home is clean and set up perfectly for dog care. Thank you Hallie! Love, Stephanie & Luna 🐶🐾💕
