“Emily is a great dog sitter, I would highly recommend. I truly appreciate the daily photos and the dropping off service. Eevee seems equally as happy. Thank you Emily.”
About: Hi there! My name is Kyra and I just moved back to the area after spending the last 3 years in Virginia. Animals are, and always have been, a huge part of my life. I grew up with dogs and cats, and had such a passion for horses that I decided to go to college to study- you guessed it- horses. I can’t imagine my life without animals, which is why I decided to do Rover in my free time. As a helicopter parent of a dogs and two cats, I completely understand the anxiety that comes with having to leave your pets behind while you’re out of town. I make sure to go above and beyond for my clients, I want their pets to feel as though they’re on vacation too! Refer to my reviews for honest feedback from some of my wonderful clients. 😊 Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a service. Thank you so much for stopping by, I look forward to hearing from you! It’s important to me to keep my pets or the pets in my care in a routine, as it helps keep myself in a routine as well. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have plenty of water available at all times. My pets are rarely left alone, if I can bring my dogs along then they’re coming with me! I also make sure to spend time with my animals and my clients. I make sure that everyone feels comfortable and everyone is on the same page.. I would only want the same for my pets if someone else was watching them.
“We left our puppy with Angela while we took a trip & despite being a little worried about leaving him at first, she definetly squashed those worries. We recieved daily photos, & when I did message, she responded quickly. Our pup always looked happy & healthy, as well as Angela giving him a bath for us so he was also very clean!”
“Tharatip & Daniel did a fantastic job sitting for Chewie! They sent several pics and videos over the weekend while they watched her. They were treating her like part of their family which is what we were looking for. Thanks again!”
“Kristen went above and beyond for our pups! She gave them lots of love, attention and exercise. She sent frequent updates and pictures. My dogs loved her. Would highly recommend her services!”
“Moki always loves her stay with Stacey and her family. The kids are so good with Moki too 🫶. It’s a nice vacation for Moki. She gets plenty of walks and play time. Stacey follows Moki’s feeding instructions, and I have peace ☮️ knowing Moki is very well taken care of and loved. Thank you, Chrissy”
“Teri and her family cared for our large sheepdog poodle mix as one of her own dogs. Our dog had a wonderful time playing outdoors in a large, fenced-in yard and clearly received abundant love and attention. We are grateful to Teri and wholeheartedly recommend her services.”
“Camille and Josh made Waffles feel like part of the family immediately when he arrived. All of their kiddos were amazing with our dog who usually isn’t around kids and he loved hanging out with them all day. We would definitely book them again!”
“Meleah is an awesome sitter. She took care of our older dog, JoonBug, (which is not easy!) and JoonBug came back in excellent shape! We can tell she was loved on too while we were gone. I would recommend Meleah to anyone!”
About: Hi! I am a Licensed Profession Clinical Counselor and work for a non-profit agency working with foster care kids. I have a MA degree in Psychology and have been told I have a "calming" affect on pets and people. References of course available both professional and personal. I myself use Rover for my pets and I feel more comfortable with adults vs. younger workers in my home while I am away. That is why I joined to bless other families that want an older adult in their home. I work during the day but can set my own schedule and I live in the Grandview Heights area. I am flexible with dates and times so please reach out with questions. I offer boarding in my condo for one pet and house sitting as well. I will be able to stay overnight but will be need to leave for a few hours everyday for my work. I will be home every evening and not need to leave until or 1pm or 2pm everyday. Flexible schedule . I make my own schedule and will work around the needs of your pets. I can drop by for visits as well I do offer care in my home but will stay in your home and be clean and tidy and send as many videos and pictures as you request.
“As always, Kathy is so very diligent with updates and communication. These days, our Ella can get very down when we’re away from her - not finishing her food, using the bathroom etc. Ella is forever comfortable with Kathy and is always tuckered for the days following a stay with her. Her yard is absolutely perfect, her home is very clean and she always welcomes with open arms!”
“Had pre engagement meeting and it was all systems go! The boys (medium labradoodles) had a great time and relaxed like the place was their own. Seemed to especially enjoy the big backyard”
About: I’ve been in love with animals for as long as I can remember and started caring for them at an early age, from puppies to seniors. I have fostered and rescued many dogs and cats over the years, which has deepened my understanding of their needs. I have a very flexible schedule and able to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and any other care a pet may need. I’m also able to give pets plenty of attention and maintain their normal routines while their owners are away. I provide safe, attentive care by following routines, giving walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love while keeping pets comfortable in their own environment :)
“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful. She kept us updated on our Fur baby which was very helpful. It was our first time being away from home, so we were a little anxious about the process. She made it very easy for us and we will definitely use her services again! In fact I'm pretty sure that Fur baby wants a playdate!”
“Katie was great! She sent me updates, videos and pictures of my pup regularly and it was visible that she was comfortable in her apartment. I hope Lilo can stay with her in the future again!”
About: Highly experienced and organized professional, seeking a meaningful and flexible way to earn some extra income while providing good care to animals. I love animals but we don't currently have any in our home so I am looking forward to spending some time and taking great care of neighbors' animals! I have a master's degree in social work and a naturally caretaking personality, and a genuine love of and appreciation for animals. For the in-home caretaking, I also have a 5 year old who loves animals and is looking forward to getting a dog when the time is right and I look forward to helping him learn how to care for animals. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats and am unable to care for your feline friends. I work full-time so I am best suited for evening, weekend or early morning commitments. I have a flexible job that allows me to work from home when I need to care for a pet in my own home, so I will be able to give a lot of extra love to my in home animals with advanced notice. I have a fenced yard, no other pets in the home and ready to welcome a furry friend! I also have a husband who is an "animal whisperer" and 5-year-old son who is so sweet and gentle with animals and looking forward to learning how to care for one (in hopes to get one of our own someday soon)!
“Khalyn did a wonderful job! Her two pups were equally awesome. My Corso/ Shepherd was well taken care of. Received updates with photos and videos throughout his stay. Would love to book again. Thanks Khalyn!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Upper Arlington
If we could give her 10 stars, we absolutely would! She is so thoughtful, kind, adaptable, and has a positive attitude. She actively check-in with us everyday she had our kitties. She’s wonderful and we would recommend her to anyone who needs someone to watch their pets.
Malerie & Blake have exceeded our expectations for puppy daycare!!!! They constantly kept us in the loop for our 3 month old puppy and sent TONS of pictures which I loved!! They took her on walks and made sure to give her lots of praise and love and they have the best attitude!!! 12/10 would book over and over!!!
Susanne and her family were amazing while watching our two dogs over a last-second weekend trip! Susanne was super communicative, send us updates and pictures, and I can tell the dogs had a great time while there. I would highly recommend Susanne for any dog watching needs!
Molly was the BEST! She watched my 11 week old Airedale terrier puppy who was very much still at a needy and annoying age, and she was amazing. So attentive and sent lots of pictures/videos/updates. Her dog Winnie is also the sweetest and was a great teacher & playmate for my puppy. I would 100% recommend her!!
Our Riley had a great first stay of 4 nights with Rachel. He loved his stay and was treated all so well. Played day and night with Rachel two dogs and loved running up and down stairs as well as enjoying the big backyard. Rachel was a wonderful commutator and mom to Riley. I’m sure we will be back again. Riley now has 2 Rover mom and dads that he loves staying with.
Leah really helped me out when I was in a bind. My A/C went out just before I was going away for a long weekend in the middle of a heatwave. She was able to keep my cats with very little notice. She kept me updated on how they were doing and my cats really took to her calm, gentle manner.
