“Destinee was wonderful with Prince. Would definitely recommend anyone that is looking for a sitter to reach out to Destinee. She is very communicative and amazing. Was sending updates.”

“What a wonderful experience for us and Hondo. He loved it and so did we. It was a completely stress-free time away knowing he was well tended. We got all the feedback we needed, pictures, videos, and texts. He got exercise, love, and a little bit of Thanksgiving turkey. When we got home, our pup headed straight to his crate and stayed there sound asleep for hours. Thanks Rachel to you and your daughters for loving him and playing with him. We're already getting our babysitting plans together for our next trip and we're relieved you'll be available for us!”


“We were so pleased with the care Rubal and her family provided to willow. They were so attentive and provided plenty of updates. Willow was obviously very happy in the videos and photos throughout the stay. We would highly recommend Rubal's AMAZING services to anyone seeking a reliable and caring individual. It was a truly wonderful experience for boTH!”

“This was the first time someone I didn't know watching my dog. This was the best experience. She treated Biggie with the upmost care. She treated him like family. This is my new go to instead of boarding him I got pictures and updates when needed. She even picked up Biggie. I highly recommend”

“Ginger loves when she’s able to stay with her friends! As soon as we turn onto their street, she gets super excited and runs right up to the door. I always know she’s having a great time and is safe when she stays at their house. Couldn’t ask for a better place for her to be!”


“Brooks did an amazing job with Maverick. At first he was unsettled but Brook was so patient with him. He settled down fairly quickly and appeared happy in every picture and video she sent us. I appreciate Brook and her family for taking care of our dog. I would 100 percent recommend Brook if you need someone to take care of your animals. Tha k you Brook.”

“Jasmine was wonderful. Easy drop off and pick up and she sent videos and pictures of Maple ever day. We were in a bind trying to find care and Jasmine responded quickly. The next time we need a sitter in Columbus, we’ll definitely ask Jasmine first!”

“This was Saharas 1st time away from us, and she was in great hands. We received pics and daily updates, and we could relax knowing she was making friends with the other dogs ! We appreciate having Deb and Jeff watch our pets”

“Dita was great with my shy mini doxie. She made accommodations for her and was very flexible on pick up/drop off times. Daisy went to Dita's scared and showed significant improvement by the time we picked her up. Dita stayed in constant contact with us with updates, photos and videos of Daisy. I look forward to taking Daisy there again!”

“Our first time using Rover and Tosha completely put us at ease. Her affectionate nature had our Huckleberry acting like he was at home instead of visiting at her place. 10/10 would recommend!”


“Christine was perfect for our foster dog, Boo. Boo can be leery of new people but after an initial standoff 🙃, Boo did great and loved to cuddle with Christine. Christine’s love of animals is obvious and I could not have asked for a better carer for Boo while I was gone. I am thrilled to have found her and would not hesitate to use her again.”

“I have no words with how thrilled we are!! Our pack of 3 fur babies had a blast with Kieth at his house. They had free run every day and Kieth made sure they kept up with their commands. Before dropping off, Keith was sure to ask for an emergency contact and vet information just in case. My husband and I got pictures while we were gone. We got updates on how our pack was doing and getting along with the other dogs at his place.”

“Garrett and his girlfriend were such lifesavers for watching harvey while I was gone. It was the longest I've left him before but I felt so comfortable the whole time knowing he was happy and safe. They kept me updated with photos and videos the whole time!”

About: Need a weekend getaway? Let your pet have one, too! I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and I know how stressful it can be to leave them behind. That's why I open my home for weekend boarding (Friday morning to Sunday night). My house is incredibly pet-friendly. Your dog will have a securely fenced yard to run around in, free roam of the house, and plenty of cozy spots to nap. They will also have some great company! My resident pack includes a super friendly 1-year-old Lab mix who loves to play, plus two older Pomeranians and a laid-back cat who knows how to keep things chill. If your pet is a little older or needs some extra care, you can rest easy. I have plenty of experience caring for senior dogs with medical issues and am completely comfortable administering medications. My pets are my world, and I promise to treat your babies as if they were my own. I can't wait to host them! I currently work full time and am home on the weekends. I can host your pets from Friday evening until Sunday evening. I only need 1 day notice. I have a fenced in yard and I offer continuous access outside weather permitting. I can crate your pet if needed. Treats and snacks and lots of love will be provided.
“Our Bogey had the best time with Ashley. She sent us updates, let us know how he was doing, went on a walk and got a pup cup. He came home absolutely pooped because he had such a fun time playing with her dog for the weekend. We will definitely be booking again 😊🐾”

“Travis & Alanah were so great! Very helpful making sure that it would be a good fit for the pups and flexible on drop offs. While we were gone we received daily pictures and updates and able to fully enjoy our vacation. Pups were clean and happy on pick up. Would definitely trust again. Thanks so much!”

She was personable and caring, while also very professional. She sent pics and an update every day, and went above and beyond with some unexpected needs. My pets took to her too, which is the ultimate stamp of approval! This is the most at ease I've felt about the care of my fur-babies while I've been away. So glad we lucked out booking Kelly!”

My favorite activity is taking them on adventures outside, dependent on the animals temperament/style, some love dog parks, playing fetch, going for drives, hikes, and others just like a simple calm stroll. I also have experience watching & caring for more exotic pets such as reptiles, amphibians, snakes, and farm animals. Throughout my life I've had a few pets a Bearded Dragon, Ball Python, Cat, Dog, a horse, Chickens, and my siblings had pets as well that I helped care for. Whatever mini family member (or maybe not so mini) it is that you're looking to get care for I'm excited to meet them! At the moment I'm currently staying at home & doing this full time. When they're here all my attention will be available for your loved one. I have a small fenced in backyard that they're free to adventure in, though most their exercise will come from walks/the park as it's not that big. There are no children in the home.

“Destinee was wonderful with Prince. Would definitely recommend anyone that is looking for a sitter to reach out to Destinee. She is very communicative and amazing. Was sending updates.”

“What a wonderful experience for us and Hondo. He loved it and so did we. It was a completely stress-free time away knowing he was well tended. We got all the feedback we needed, pictures, videos, and texts. He got exercise, love, and a little bit of Thanksgiving turkey. When we got home, our pup headed straight to his crate and stayed there sound asleep for hours. Thanks Rachel to you and your daughters for loving him and playing with him. We're already getting our babysitting plans together for our next trip and we're relieved you'll be available for us!”


“We were so pleased with the care Rubal and her family provided to willow. They were so attentive and provided plenty of updates. Willow was obviously very happy in the videos and photos throughout the stay. We would highly recommend Rubal's AMAZING services to anyone seeking a reliable and caring individual. It was a truly wonderful experience for boTH!”

“This was the first time someone I didn't know watching my dog. This was the best experience. She treated Biggie with the upmost care. She treated him like family. This is my new go to instead of boarding him I got pictures and updates when needed. She even picked up Biggie. I highly recommend”

“Ginger loves when she’s able to stay with her friends! As soon as we turn onto their street, she gets super excited and runs right up to the door. I always know she’s having a great time and is safe when she stays at their house. Couldn’t ask for a better place for her to be!”


“Brooks did an amazing job with Maverick. At first he was unsettled but Brook was so patient with him. He settled down fairly quickly and appeared happy in every picture and video she sent us. I appreciate Brook and her family for taking care of our dog. I would 100 percent recommend Brook if you need someone to take care of your animals. Tha k you Brook.”

“Jasmine was wonderful. Easy drop off and pick up and she sent videos and pictures of Maple ever day. We were in a bind trying to find care and Jasmine responded quickly. The next time we need a sitter in Columbus, we’ll definitely ask Jasmine first!”

“Dita was great with my shy mini doxie. She made accommodations for her and was very flexible on pick up/drop off times. Daisy went to Dita's scared and showed significant improvement by the time we picked her up. Dita stayed in constant contact with us with updates, photos and videos of Daisy. I look forward to taking Daisy there again!”

“Our first time using Rover and Tosha completely put us at ease. Her affectionate nature had our Huckleberry acting like he was at home instead of visiting at her place. 10/10 would recommend!”

“I have no words with how thrilled we are!! Our pack of 3 fur babies had a blast with Kieth at his house. They had free run every day and Kieth made sure they kept up with their commands. Before dropping off, Keith was sure to ask for an emergency contact and vet information just in case. My husband and I got pictures while we were gone. We got updates on how our pack was doing and getting along with the other dogs at his place.”

“Garrett and his girlfriend were such lifesavers for watching harvey while I was gone. It was the longest I've left him before but I felt so comfortable the whole time knowing he was happy and safe. They kept me updated with photos and videos the whole time!”

About: Need a weekend getaway? Let your pet have one, too! I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and I know how stressful it can be to leave them behind. That's why I open my home for weekend boarding (Friday morning to Sunday night). My house is incredibly pet-friendly. Your dog will have a securely fenced yard to run around in, free roam of the house, and plenty of cozy spots to nap. They will also have some great company! My resident pack includes a super friendly 1-year-old Lab mix who loves to play, plus two older Pomeranians and a laid-back cat who knows how to keep things chill. If your pet is a little older or needs some extra care, you can rest easy. I have plenty of experience caring for senior dogs with medical issues and am completely comfortable administering medications. My pets are my world, and I promise to treat your babies as if they were my own. I can't wait to host them! I currently work full time and am home on the weekends. I can host your pets from Friday evening until Sunday evening. I only need 1 day notice. I have a fenced in yard and I offer continuous access outside weather permitting. I can crate your pet if needed. Treats and snacks and lots of love will be provided.
“Our Bogey had the best time with Ashley. She sent us updates, let us know how he was doing, went on a walk and got a pup cup. He came home absolutely pooped because he had such a fun time playing with her dog for the weekend. We will definitely be booking again 😊🐾”

“Travis & Alanah were so great! Very helpful making sure that it would be a good fit for the pups and flexible on drop offs. While we were gone we received daily pictures and updates and able to fully enjoy our vacation. Pups were clean and happy on pick up. Would definitely trust again. Thanks so much!”

“Wonderful care for my two pups while on vacation. I could tell by the updates and pics Julie sent me that my boys were happy and comfortable. So appreciative of your communication and flexibility.”

“Carmichael came through big time for me, last minute. My sitter had bailed 3 days before my vacation and Carmichael was reasonably priced and Montcier had a wonderful week with him. Thank you again”
