“Olivia was great, I left my miniature schnauzer with her for a week. She sent pictures every day of her where she looked like she was having a great time with her two small dogs. I would definitely recommend Olivia to take care of your pets, she did an awesome job.”
“Debbie was great....she gave us regular updates on Roodles. She took very care of our dog....we were very impressed. She even had a meet and greet in the beginning to meet roodles....we felt very comfortable leaving Roodles with her. Our dog is scared of fireworks and Debbie comforted her and got her through it on NY eve”
“Great visit. Pups were happy and in great spirits when we picked them up. Tyila was quick with communication and easy to work with. Her home is perfectly dog friendly and we loved seeing picture updates!”
“My sweet 13 yo Bella (border. collie) has mobility issues. Johnnica had to carry my girl up and down stairs to take her outside. Johnnica was easy to work with and understood my concerns on how hard it is to leave my baby. Johnnica sent pictures and answered my text promptly which alleviated my anxiety. Bella was well taken care of. I was so happy with the care that Bella received that I asked Johnnica to watch my girl again in September.”
“This is the second time Megan has watched one of our dogs, and the first time for our other dog. Megan is always so friendly and took great care of our babies! They get along great with Megan’s dogs and we’re so exhausted when we got home. I know they had a great time! I really appreciate her responsiveness to messages and pictures of my babies!”
“Gloria is a great sitter. She has a nice back yard with doggy door and is very responsive. She was able to accommodate all of my dog’s needs and sent me updates. Highly recommend!”
“Nikki was great! We were in a pinch and needed a dog sitter last minute, and she truly saved us. She responded quickly, was flexible, and made the whole process stress free. Our pups was well cared for, happy, and when we returned. We’re so grateful for her help and will absolutely use her again!”
“I am so happy I found Carly. I was going out of town for a 3 day getaway and my dog sitter cancelled the week of. Carly was thankfully able to take my fur baby and give her 1 on 1 attention! She eased my anxiety with daily updates and made sure my princess returned to me tangle free! We will definitely use Carly in the future.”
“We left Xena and Apollo with William and his family and they treated them as one of their own. I felt comfortable leaving my pups with them and will use them again next time. Usually when we leave town, we have to retrain our dogs, but this time I feel like they came back even more trained. I appreciate William and his family reinforcing our rules and training habits, it makes a world of a difference. I also loved getting pictures and communication while the pups were there.”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog. Andrea was always quick to answer our texts. She gave us pictures and updates of how Mikey was doing. Highly recommend using her!”
“Rebecca provided excellent care for my dog. She communicated daily and I felt assured my dog was well cared for. My dog had a good time and was welcomed to Rebecca s family. I hope to use her for future bookings and highly recommend her services.”
“Sandra and Mark were so amazing with my two babies that they didn’t even want to come home, seriously! Sandra even found treats that my picky eater actually likes. I’d give them 100 stars if I could. The communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our trip to the beach knowing our babies were in good hands.”
“Anna and her family were great! My dogs had a great time in their big back yard and with their dog. When I returned from my trip, my dogs were happy to show me around what they had been up to and I could tell they were well taken care of. Thank you Anna!”
“Rebecca was awesome with Max. She made him very comfortable and happy while I was away for the weekend. She kept me updated on his stay while he was with her. I can tell by the pictures she sent me , that he was very happy, I will definitely use Rebecca again in the future. Thanks again Rebecca for taking care of my Max. 💗💕😊🐩”
“Kara took such great care of our dogs! She took us very last minute and was very accommodating! She offered pick up and drop off as well as grooming and bathing for both which I am extremely grateful for! The doggies came back happy, smelling good, looking fresh and well cared for! Definitely recommend and will be booking again!”
“Heather took great care of our three dogs in her home and sent regular pictures and updates while we were gone. We were so glad to have our senior dogs somewhere comfortable and homey rather than in a commercial kennel. I would definitely recommend her for your boarding needs!”
“Amber was a very nice person and always kept me informed. Rose always looked so comfortable there when I received pictures. I highly recommend Amber, she actually cared after my best friend!”
“First time leaving my baby, Kai, with a sitter in Columbus. Couldn't have made a better sitter selection. Selau was wonderful from their first meeting at dropoff, I could tell Kai felt comfortable with her. I had no worries while Kai was in Selau's care. Wonderful sitting, I have found my Columbus sitter. Will definitely use again and recommend.”

About: I have over 15 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes German Shepherds, Chihuahuas, Pit Bulls, Australian Cattle Dogs (Blue Heelers), Bull Terriers, Cane Corsos, and Boston Terriers. I am comfortable with large, powerful breeds as well as small companion dogs. In addition to caring for family pets and dogs belonging to friends and neighbors, I was entrusted with the care of the 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team (3ABCT), 1st Armored Division Bulldog Mascot while Soldiers were away for training. This experience required reliability, consistency, and attention to the dog’s daily needs and well-being. As a military veteran, I understand the importance of responsibility, trust, and clear communication. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress free environment while their owners are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, exercise, playtime, and ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need throughout the day. With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds and sizes, providing a safe, structured, and loving environment has become second nature to me. As a military veteran, I value consistency, reliability, and attention to detail. Whether caring for my own pets or those entrusted to me, I make sure they receive plenty of exercise, affection, supervision, and routine care. I enjoy spending time outdoors, which makes daily walks and active play a natural part of my lifestyle. Pet care is not an interruption to my routine, it is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard for supervised outdoor play and two friendly, well socialized dogs who can provide companionship if your dog enjoys interacting with others. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and routines. Pets in my care are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. If your dog prefers their own space, I can easily separate or crate them when needed to ensure a safe, stress free environment for everyone.

About: Hi! I’m Jessica, a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for cats and other pets. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take pride in providing patient, attentive care tailored to their individual needs. I have experience caring for kittens, adult cats, and senior cats, including those that require medication, special diets, extra monitoring, or additional patience and reassurance. I’m comfortable caring for shy, anxious, independent, and highly social cats, and I always allow them to interact at their own pace to help them feel safe and comfortable. My services include feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, enrichment activities, medication administration when needed, and plenty of attention based on your cat’s preferences. Whether your cat enjoys chasing toys, receiving affection, or simply having a calm and reliable presence nearby, I will make sure they feel cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed and give you peace of mind. My goal is to maintain your cat’s routine, reduce stress, and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in your absence. I treat every pet as if they were my own and would be honored to care for your feline family member. 🐱💕
“I got very lucky choosing Riley. Riley and I arranged a meet up to meet with me and my 11 cats. We went over the feeding and litter instructions prior to my trip. She got it the first time around. I didn't have to repeat myself. We also went over safety issues regarding the keys and gate and keeping the pets safe. She is reliable, trustworthy, pleasant and sweet and it was a pleasure getting to know her, she truly loves and cares for animals. She also texted me when she checked in and out of the house. She also sent me pictures of my cats. When I got home, it was like I never left. She did an excellent job feeding and cleaning the litter boxes and making sure cats were fine. This is the first time I used her as a pet sitter on Rover, and it was so stress-free. She is someone I definitely will use again in the future to take care of my pets. ❤️”
“Chandra is awesome!! I needed her last minute and she was able to drop-in on my pup. It was such a relief. She let me know when she got there & how it went. I'll be using her again & I'm glad I met her. I highly recommend her!”

I am patient, calm and willing to go the extra mile to ensure your pet is happy, safe and fed properly. I have a soft spot for rescue animals.

“Polly stayed with Tyila and her family for doggy day care and it was a wonderful experience. My pup enjoyed the attention of the children and also got to play with their pups. A win-win all the way around. Thanks so much. Already sent my next booking.”
“Polly had her first visit with Ms. Debbie and it was a success. Communication was awesome. Drop off and pick up was super easy. Received an update and photo of my pup during the visit. Just an all around great experience. Highly recommended.”
“Olivia was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover, and my dog absolutely LOVED her! I took him back for a second time today and he was wagging his tail and scratching at her front door excited to go in! So I know he was taken care of really well. She also did fantastic with updating me with pictures throughout the day. I will definitely rebook with Olivia in the future!”
About: Your baby will have my sole attention as I only board one dog at a time, unless other pets are from the same family. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, puppies and older. I have given senior care to all of my wonderful dogs in my past. Currently, I have no pets. I have worked with House Sitters America for years. I spent two weeks in Albuquerque, NM, taking care of two big dogs in the pet owners’ home. The owners left on vacation and hired me to take care of their pets and home while they were gone. I have also spent two weeks twice in Cheyenne, WY, taking care of two small dogs while the parents were away. They hired me in the winter, then again in the summer. I have hired Rover sitters for many years, all over the United States - from Washington State to Maine, to Texas, and to Georgia, as I traveled, and I know what I appreciated from each sitter and will give you the same care and services. I am retired so have plenty of time to take care of your beautiful pets. I love dogs and they will feel right at home with me. I have a spacious, fenced-in yard where they can run freely - always under my supervision. I also have a small fenced, grassy, doggy area with a doggy door on the side of my house. I will spend most of my time with your pet. They entertain me as much as I entertain them.

“The best sitter I could’ve asked for. Rebekah was extremely helpful, available on short notice, and made sure Teddy had a super fun day. Highly recommend, and Teddy already misses his new friends!”
“Octavia always takes such great care of Atlas that he cries when he has to leave her place! Drop off/pick up are always smooth and there’s never a delay in communication when it comes to questions, updates, and pictures!”
“Omgoodness….I so wish I had found you sooner. You were amazing and so sweet to my baby! He had an amazing time. Thank you for taking such good care of him and for all the updates with pictures and videos. It always takes a load off when we know we can go to work and someone takes care of their dog the same as they would their own!!”
“Mary Grace is an exceptional pet sitter! She agreed to care for my 2 dogs at the last minute and was flexible with my work schedule. She wasn’t put off by my long work day of 12 hour shifts. She kept me informed throughout the day with pics and texts on how well my puppy kids were doing. Though my one dog has some behavioral special needs, Mary Grace was confident in her skills to care for my dog both professionally and lovingly. I highly recommend Mary Grace!”
About: I have experience with a variety of pet sitting jobs, and in my previous Home Health Care work, part of my responsibilities included caring for clients’ pets. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters, providing daily care, attention, and love to animals while they wait for their forever homes. Currently, I’m working toward a trainer certificate to further enhance my skills and provide the best care and guidance for pets. I have an amazing and flexible job working from home, so I’m able to provide care fairly easily in between my calls for work. I am usually at home and am dedicated to providing company and the best care needed for your pet individually. I also respect my clients pets and I do not board other clients animals at the same time. I do one family in my home at a time because you never know how a pet could interact with another person’s pet in a negative way. Regardless of what your needs are, please don’t hesitate to ask me! We can work together to create a plan that’s easy for both you and your pet. I take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routine, and preferences so that I can provide care that feels just like home. Their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority, and I’ll make sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away.
About: I've had animals for as long as I can remember. I've taken care of them since I was 10. I've helped with friends, my personal families, and other families pets. Would love to help take care of your animals while you are away or unable to. I'm a single stay at home mom of 2 wonderful little boys. So I do have a flexible schedule for the most part. I am home the majority of the time. I have a shih tzu that can keep your fur baby company as well as 2 little boys whom love animals. I can take your pets on walks through the neighborhood. I can easily crate smaller animals. I would need larger animal crates provided for me. I can keep them at my home or check in on them at your home as well. Will feed, water, potty break, and play with your lovely fur babies! I stay at home with my children, so we are able to keep your fur babies company the majority of the time! They will for sure get lots of love and playtime in! I try very hard to provide a safe and welcoming environment for your furbabies and will give honest updates and pictures throughout your pets stay.
“Although this was just a test run, Nikki, Ben and their family were very welcoming. They took they time to explain how their pet sitting worked, introduce their family and furry kids, and help me work out other times that they could watch Bear. Bear enjoyed his day care day very much and was exhausted from all the play when got home. Looking forward to the next stay.”
About: As a stay at home mom, I can assure that your fur baby will receive all of the love, attention, care, and interaction they could want or need! 💛. We have a large backyard and my kids and are I are around all day to let them out (or in) whenever they want. Our whole family loves animals of all kinds so we aren’t just limited to dogs and cats. We have years of experience with all kinds of pets and are looking forward to loving on yours! Our current menagerie includes: Islay- a sweet tempered 3yo Brittany who loves to run. She is great with other dogs and loves to be chased, but can also be super chill with dogs that are on the calmer side. Bingo- a 10yo humungous Ragdoll cat, who mostly sleeps and lays around all day—sometimes gracing us with his presence for ear scratches. Mayhem- a spry 2yo cat that adopted us after hitching a ride under my car (unbeknownst to me) as a kitten. He is sweet and playful but spends most of his time outside—coming in to eat then begging to be let out again. Ellie- a 3yo very friendly bearded dragon. Paul- a 1yo beautiful ball python. Ollie- a 1yo shy but gorgeous leopard gecko. And 7 chickens all named after First Ladies. I am a stay at home mom so, unless I’m dropping kids off at school or taking them to practice I’m home all day to meet the needs of your precious ones! I have a fully fenced in back yard with lots of space to roam, run, and sniff. Since I’m home all day, I’m able to let pups out whenever they want or need!
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. I provide a loving, patient environment where every animal feels safe, happy, and well-cared-for, ensuring their routines, exercise, and comfort are a top priority. As a homeschool family, we’re home throughout the day, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Our flexible schedule allows us to include walks, feeding, and cuddle time naturally in our daily rhythm—your pet becomes part of our family’s routine. We have two dogs, Balto and Bayleigh. They are friendly and love meeting new friends. We live on 25 acres, and have cultivated a friendly environment for dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. 😊
About: Please take a moment to read this before you send a doggy daycare request: **Doggy Daycare/Pack walks** Any pups that are dog friendly and trained on and off leash can attend. Your pup joins other well mannered pups on a weekly walk/adventure. We explore new places, practice proper socialization skills, and practice real world training experiences, This is offered Monday-Friday and a minimum of three days per week is required. Drop off/pick up services included! - Growing up I always had a cat or dog around. I have also taken care of countless of dogs and cats along the way- whether they were a stray I picked up, a family’s, friend’s, or neighbor’s. I’ve always had a passion for animals more specifically dogs. For three years I worked at a dog training/boarding facility as a kennel technician and a trainer. I was taught how to efficiently care for 25+ dogs at a time in a kennel environment. My responsibilities included taking dogs outside at specific times, feeding, administering medication, prioritizing safety, keeping kennels, and the dogs clean. Within the first couple of months working as a kennel technician I quickly developed a love for dog training and soon was promoted and worked as a trainer at the facility. I learned multiple ways to teach dogs different skills, work through behavioral issues, and how to better help owners understand and communicate with their dogs. From there I went on to work at a local dog park/bar for just about three years as well. I closely monitored the dogs in the park to make sure they were playing in a fair and safe manner. I had to be able to read the dogs in the park and deescalate possible tension between dogs to prevent any scuffles or accidents. After the dog park closed I have gotten back into dog training again and have recently started a pack walking service. I’ve also been here on rover since 2022! As of right now I’m doing Rover full time! However I do run a structured pack walk with dogs I’ve trained or have received previous training in the mornings and I also train Board and trains at my house/on pack walks. My schedule is open for early morning drop ins/walks, mid day, and evenings. I can do drop ins multiple times a day but please keep in mind I do not stay overnight. I can board your pup(s) overnight at my house if they have received training previously by another trainer or if they have been trained by me. I provide loving care in the comfort of your pet’s own space! When we leave for trips or go to work it can often cause our pets to feel anxious or stressed and taking them away from the home they find most comforting can often worsen these feelings, especially in very chaotic environments like conventional boarding facilities. By keeping them in their own environment it can be more comforting than boarding them away from your home. This may also be more comforting for you too! For boarding your pup must be kennel trained for when I briefly the house and for meal times! However if your pup is boarding with me they will usually be out free roaming with my pups while I’m home and they will join me on my weekly pack walks as well! Safety and comfort are my top priority when it comes to pet sitting. Finding someone you can trust is very hard. I will try my very best to keep you as updated as possible by sending as many photos as I can as well as on every rover drop in card I will leave a description about what we did during the drop in so you aren’t left hanging! On walks I will do everything in my power to make sure your dog is safe and gets the time they need to sniff, explore, and do their business. I can drop in a few times a day if you are out of town or if you work long shifts and you’d prefer your pup to stay at home. I drop by and give potty breaks,food, water, play time, exercise, whatever your best friend may need I will try my best to provide it!
About: I LOVE ANIMALS. I'm especially fond of dogs. I got my first pet dog at the age of 2 years old and I've had dogs my entire life. In 2008, I became because of my love for all animals. My experience includes caring for multiple breeds. The bigger breeds: Pit bull, Akita, Husky, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Boxer and Labrador. The small/medium breeds: Chihuahua, Yorkie, Dachshund, Poodle and Snauzer. I have experience administering oral and intravenous medication. My home is open for pet care 24 hours. It's important to me to be available for pet owners who don't have traditional work hours. I have a pet friendly home. My couch is not off limits. It's my snuggle station. My yard is large and fenced in. Potty breaks are done one at a time and I'm present the whole time.

“I’m staff with an RV tour group and scheduled Shaunte to walk two dogs during our full day bus tour. She did an outstanding job. She was prompt for the Meet and Great the day before the scheduled walk. She sent pictures of both dogs walking and playing. I would recommend her and use her again. Thank you.”
About: My name is Johnnica and I homeschool my daughters that are 10 and 12. We have a Goldendoodle named Penny and a German Shepherd named Roxy that we adore and we’d love the opportunity to love on your pet! We are a military family and understand how difficult it can be to find a loving environment for your fur babies when you’re traveling. Allow us the opportunity to play with your pets daily. We are rarely gone from home so your pets will receive plenty of loving attention. We have 6 acres they will love to explore with our guidance and under our supervision. We’ve had the experience of watching many friends pets over the years and have always enjoyed them in our home. Thank you for looking at us for your pet sitting needs! We are a homeschooling family so we are rarely gone from home. We do attend church on Sundays and have occasional classes (theater and piano) which require us to be away generally for less than 2 hours. We feed our pets twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. We let our dogs out multiple times each day to play and potty.
“Ansley, is such a caring and attentive person. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and is genuinely concerned about your dog's well being. I especially appreciate Ansley taking time to play with my little "Diva" fur baby after their walks.”
About: I have over 15 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes German Shepherds, Chihuahuas, Pit Bulls, Australian Cattle Dogs (Blue Heelers), Bull Terriers, Cane Corsos, and Boston Terriers. I am comfortable with large, powerful breeds as well as small companion dogs. In addition to caring for family pets and dogs belonging to friends and neighbors, I was entrusted with the care of the 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team (3ABCT), 1st Armored Division Bulldog Mascot while Soldiers were away for training. This experience required reliability, consistency, and attention to the dog’s daily needs and well-being. As a military veteran, I understand the importance of responsibility, trust, and clear communication. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress free environment while their owners are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, exercise, playtime, and ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need throughout the day. With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds and sizes, providing a safe, structured, and loving environment has become second nature to me. As a military veteran, I value consistency, reliability, and attention to detail. Whether caring for my own pets or those entrusted to me, I make sure they receive plenty of exercise, affection, supervision, and routine care. I enjoy spending time outdoors, which makes daily walks and active play a natural part of my lifestyle. Pet care is not an interruption to my routine, it is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard for supervised outdoor play and two friendly, well socialized dogs who can provide companionship if your dog enjoys interacting with others. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and routines. Pets in my care are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. If your dog prefers their own space, I can easily separate or crate them when needed to ensure a safe, stress free environment for everyone.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little. I recently lost my dog who was almost 16 years old. So I am used to caring for elderly dogs as well and the challenges that come with it like medications, helping them with stairs, etc. I really enjoy spending quality time with the dogs and keeping them company. It’s currently off season for my job so my days are pretty free. I am really flexible from May to Sept. I will do my best to be able to accommodate with your needs. I live in a home with a big fenced in back yard. I do not have any other pets at home so there’s no need to worry your pet does not get along with others.
About: I’ve taken care of almost all breeds of dogs, friends, family and neighbors. I’ve always loved dogs and taking care of them we how our own dog and love to have other dogs over they play all day and have fun and have company. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily life. I work full-time during the day, but I always make time for morning and afternoon walks. My husband is home most of the day, so there’s usually someone around to give love, playtime, and potty breaks even if he steps out for a few hours. We have a sweet 4-year-old pup of our own and a playful 3-year-old child, so our home is full of fun and energy. With a big fenced-in yard, there’s plenty of safe space for running, playing, and exploring. Caring for dogs is just part of our everyday routine, and we love it! In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. They get plenty of love, playtime, and attention throughout the day, along with safe outdoor time in our large fenced yard. I make sure they stay on their usual feeding and potty schedule, and they’re always included in our daily walks and play.
About: As a stay at home mom, I can assure that your fur baby will receive all of the love, attention, care, and interaction they could want or need! 💛. We have a large backyard and my kids and are I are around all day to let them out (or in) whenever they want. Our whole family loves animals of all kinds so we aren’t just limited to dogs and cats. We have years of experience with all kinds of pets and are looking forward to loving on yours! Our current menagerie includes: Islay- a sweet tempered 3yo Brittany who loves to run. She is great with other dogs and loves to be chased, but can also be super chill with dogs that are on the calmer side. Bingo- a 10yo humungous Ragdoll cat, who mostly sleeps and lays around all day—sometimes gracing us with his presence for ear scratches. Mayhem- a spry 2yo cat that adopted us after hitching a ride under my car (unbeknownst to me) as a kitten. He is sweet and playful but spends most of his time outside—coming in to eat then begging to be let out again. Ellie- a 3yo very friendly bearded dragon. Paul- a 1yo beautiful ball python. Ollie- a 1yo shy but gorgeous leopard gecko. And 7 chickens all named after First Ladies. I am a stay at home mom so, unless I’m dropping kids off at school or taking them to practice I’m home all day to meet the needs of your precious ones! I have a fully fenced in back yard with lots of space to roam, run, and sniff. Since I’m home all day, I’m able to let pups out whenever they want or need!
About: I have experience with a variety of pet sitting jobs, and in my previous Home Health Care work, part of my responsibilities included caring for clients’ pets. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters, providing daily care, attention, and love to animals while they wait for their forever homes. Currently, I’m working toward a trainer certificate to further enhance my skills and provide the best care and guidance for pets. I have an amazing and flexible job working from home, so I’m able to provide care fairly easily in between my calls for work. I am usually at home and am dedicated to providing company and the best care needed for your pet individually. I also respect my clients pets and I do not board other clients animals at the same time. I do one family in my home at a time because you never know how a pet could interact with another person’s pet in a negative way. Regardless of what your needs are, please don’t hesitate to ask me! We can work together to create a plan that’s easy for both you and your pet. I take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routine, and preferences so that I can provide care that feels just like home. Their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority, and I’ll make sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away.
About: I love every animal and treat them all like my own children. I have two dogs of my own one who is blind. Grew up with animals, all sorts but mainly cats and dogs. I currently work a full time job but I am available for morning throughout the week and weekends. Weekends I can do more visits typically I care for pets in clients home with the instructions they give me. Routine is key so whatever routine your pet is one I will abide by it. And of course get lots of love
“Jamie was so great. She’s very flexible when it comes to schedules and has a natural kind hearted-ness when it comes to dogs. My dog loved her. I will definitely be asking again for help in the near future and highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been asked to pet sit for a variety of pets over the years. Anywhere from cats and dogs to bearded dragons and horses! I’m a quick learner and can adapt just as fast to match whatever needs are required. I also own a mixed dog and an orange tabby cat myself. I am a newly wed who recently moved into town and am still getting settled. Until I get connected with my work, I have a TON of free time! I’d love to get to be surrounded by fur babies as much as possible! I love to let the critters set the pace when getting to know me. I believe there needs to be an established bond of trust before anything else. And I LOVE to love on them once they let me! I can never get enough pets and snuggles! I want them to feel as though I’m a friend and family member rather than a stranger. And the same goes for their human parents too! I love to connect with my clientele and keep them updated as much as possible to ensure they feel confident that their babies are taken care of :)
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats and enjoy figuring out how each dog thinks, why they do what they do, and what they need to be happy! I've boarded single dogs, and I've done overnight stays in-house with 18 dogs at once! I also have experience with many types of medicine administration. Sadly at this time I can only watch female dogs! I have an allergy to the dog allergen Can F 5 which is only found in male dogs. Hope to start allergy shots soon! I'm also a fan of training for those who are trying to train their pups, or don't mind me doing so. Our corgi now knows the following commands: Clean up your toys (she puts them into her toy box), Wipe your paws, Speak, Go to bed, Do yoga (stretch), Spin, Belly (roll over), Snout (put your collar on), Down, Stay, and more! I am completely available for your dog- I work from home as a writer and have very few meetings or obligations throughout the day, which means I get to spend all day with my own Corgi and your dog will be well-cared for! I have a fenced yard, a great neighborhood for twice daily walks, and a very large crate for sleeping if they prefer crate sleeping. We have one spayed 1-year-old dog.
About: I’ve always had a strong connection with animals, they seem to know that I love and care for them immediately. I’ve had the most antisocial pets snuggling me within the first few minutes of knowing me. I’m not a magician but I will treat your beloved babies with same amount of care and love as I would with my own. I can be booked from anytime! This is my only obligation and it’s what I’m passionate about, I look forward to caring for your fur babies! Every pet is different and has their own routine they’re accustomed to. I try to know as much about their day to day as much as I can prior to, so I can provide the best and most comfortable experience for your babies! I’m very adaptable, so anything I haven’t done before I will learn quick. I will treat each and every client, (and their pets) with respect and honesty.

“My sweet 13 yo Bella (border. collie) has mobility issues. Johnnica had to carry my girl up and down stairs to take her outside. Johnnica was easy to work with and understood my concerns on how hard it is to leave my baby. Johnnica sent pictures and answered my text promptly which alleviated my anxiety. Bella was well taken care of. I was so happy with the care that Bella received that I asked Johnnica to watch my girl again in September.”
“This is the second time Megan has watched one of our dogs, and the first time for our other dog. Megan is always so friendly and took great care of our babies! They get along great with Megan’s dogs and we’re so exhausted when we got home. I know they had a great time! I really appreciate her responsiveness to messages and pictures of my babies!”
“Nikki was great! We were in a pinch and needed a dog sitter last minute, and she truly saved us. She responded quickly, was flexible, and made the whole process stress free. Our pups was well cared for, happy, and when we returned. We’re so grateful for her help and will absolutely use her again!”
“We left Xena and Apollo with William and his family and they treated them as one of their own. I felt comfortable leaving my pups with them and will use them again next time. Usually when we leave town, we have to retrain our dogs, but this time I feel like they came back even more trained. I appreciate William and his family reinforcing our rules and training habits, it makes a world of a difference. I also loved getting pictures and communication while the pups were there.”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog. Andrea was always quick to answer our texts. She gave us pictures and updates of how Mikey was doing. Highly recommend using her!”
“Sandra and Mark were so amazing with my two babies that they didn’t even want to come home, seriously! Sandra even found treats that my picky eater actually likes. I’d give them 100 stars if I could. The communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our trip to the beach knowing our babies were in good hands.”
“Anna and her family were great! My dogs had a great time in their big back yard and with their dog. When I returned from my trip, my dogs were happy to show me around what they had been up to and I could tell they were well taken care of. Thank you Anna!”
“Rebecca was awesome with Max. She made him very comfortable and happy while I was away for the weekend. She kept me updated on his stay while he was with her. I can tell by the pictures she sent me , that he was very happy, I will definitely use Rebecca again in the future. Thanks again Rebecca for taking care of my Max. 💗💕😊🐩”
“Kara took such great care of our dogs! She took us very last minute and was very accommodating! She offered pick up and drop off as well as grooming and bathing for both which I am extremely grateful for! The doggies came back happy, smelling good, looking fresh and well cared for! Definitely recommend and will be booking again!”
“Heather took such great care of our Molly girl! She updated us daily with pictures, was responsive and even went above and beyond giving our girl a bath! 10/10! We will definitely rebook the next time we need a sitter for Molly!”
“Heather took great care of our three dogs in her home and sent regular pictures and updates while we were gone. We were so glad to have our senior dogs somewhere comfortable and homey rather than in a commercial kennel. I would definitely recommend her for your boarding needs!”

“Amber was a very nice person and always kept me informed. Rose always looked so comfortable there when I received pictures. I highly recommend Amber, she actually cared after my best friend!”
“Mary Grace was a godsend to our family. Our beloved and notoriously mischievous 11 year old /70lb shepherd mix is prone to stress and can’t be comfortably boarded in a facility. He is also getting older, so he struggles with separation anxiety and requires frequent walks and intellectual stimulation. Mary Grace was a perfect fit. She is extremely competent and conscientious. She met both Ranger’s needs as a full time companion (walks, feeding, engaging) and my needs as a concerned parent (pictures, updates, etc). It’s the first time we’ve traveled in years that I was not constantly worried about Ranger. I would not hesitate to book with her again or to recommend her to others. She is amazing and I’m so grateful for how well she cared for our boy.”
“First time leaving my baby, Kai, with a sitter in Columbus. Couldn't have made a better sitter selection. Selau was wonderful from their first meeting at dropoff, I could tell Kai felt comfortable with her. I had no worries while Kai was in Selau's care. Wonderful sitting, I have found my Columbus sitter. Will definitely use again and recommend.”
