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!”
“Kat was/is truly amazing with my Zara! I received updates daily by text and videos. I could tell Zara was treated like her own. Zara had so much fun I thought she wouldn’t want to comeback home.. lol 😂. Thanks again for your kindness, professionalism, and expertise! Zara will be back as long as you will have her❤️❤️ Thanks again!”

Ellen always responded quickly to any communication with her and sent daily updates on how Hobie was doing. He had a great time playing with Ellen's dog Zooey and going on outings to the parks around town. Thanks for a great first experience with Rover!”
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my deep commitment to providing personalized, loving care for pets of all ages and needs. I understand that each pet has its own personality, routine, and preferences, and I make sure to tailor my care to meet those unique needs. Whether you're leaving behind a playful puppy, a senior pet needing extra comfort, or a pet with special requirements, I am equipped to handle it all. I offer basic puppy training to help with behavior and obedience, ensuring your little one is well-behaved and happy. For senior pets, I provide extra attention, gentle handling, and customized activities that support their mobility and health. I also keep owners updated with regular check-ins and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe hands. My approach is built on trust, reliability, and a genuine love for animals, making sure your pet feels cared for and secure while you're away. I work from home full time so I am always available for frequent potty breaks and lots of attention 24/7. I like to stay in touch with pet owners with regular updates, photos, and messages so they know exactly how their pet is doing. When your pet stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family in a comfortable, safe, and pet-friendly environment. My home features a spacious, fenced yard where your dog can run, play, and explore to their heart’s content. There’s plenty of room for fetch, games, and exercise, ensuring they get the physical activity they need. Inside, I don’t use crates; your pet has free access to the entire home, including the couch and the bed—because I believe pets should feel relaxed and at home, just like they would in their own space. I know that some pets are more comfortable lounging with you or snuggling up at night, so I encourage them to be as close as they want. I keep their routine consistent, feeding them at the same times and following any special instructions you’ve provided. The atmosphere is calm, welcoming, and full of love, so your pet will feel right at home, whether it’s a short stay or a longer visit. I strive to make sure each pet receives the attention, exercise, and affection they need to feel happy and secure while staying in my care.
“Dajon was great! He was able to watch my pup very last minute for a couple days. He sent pics and videos every day and made sure my pup was comfortable! I will definitely use him again in the future!”
“I booked Lauren for the second time, and once again she was amazing! She takes such great care of my Xena and really caters to her needs, especially when it comes to food and routines. I love that she sends plenty of updates throughout the visit, it gives me so much peace of mind. She’s professional, attentive, and genuinely cares. I absolutely love her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Mary did a great job with sending daily updates and following my thorough instructions for my senior dog with cancer. He seemed to get lots of positive stimulation with her and her dogs. Would definitely book again.”

“The comfort of knowing that my boys were loved and cared for so well, was the best part of having them stay with Sally! We received pictures and videos all week while we vacationed - not having to worry about their well-being was so refreshing and relieving. I know these dogs will always enjoy their time with Sally. It’s like they have a vacation of their own!”

“Julie did a wonderful job taking care of my outdoor cat despite challenges with weather. She was reliable, quick to communicate, and included plenty of photos in her notes about each visit. I’ll definitely be using her again when I travel!”
“My cat loved having Savannah come over every day. This is the happiest my cat has been after I took a long trip. She also helped me out by bringing in some packages that arrived while I was gone. I would be happy to use Savannah's services again in the future.”
“Kara was a great cat sitter! She did everything I asked, and was so good with my kitties. I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures! Definitely recommend her services :)”

“Rachel was wonderful! Literally I was a hot mess and missing my babies from hour one and she answered every question and went above and beyond. It has taken us years to find a cat sitter and Rachel made it so easy I could cry. Would recommend over and over again!”
“Kam is the best. We have come to rely on her for every out of town pet care need. Absolutely outstanding and professional. We will always book with her if she is available. I recommend using her first.”
“Tamara is clearly a very loving and attentive sitter, her detailed updates on how our cats are doing always bring us so much joy and I know our cats are in good hands with her”
“Melanie is awesome! She met with me before our vacation which gave us both a chance to meet one another and for my cats to see her. It was nice just to have that introduction before we headed out of town. She was great about sending pics and videos and sending along updates. Would definitely recommend! She's such a light!”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals but dogs were always part of our family. As an adult I have owned cats, hamsters, guinea pigs and fish. I love all animals including reptiles! I am currently a stay at home mom for four and looking for some fur-babies to love on while my kids are at school. I’m available most days during the day and some weekends too. I have work in child care most my life, so I’m use to meeting the needs of those who you love the most. I’m calm and patient for slow to warm animals and children.
About: I’ve taken care of cats ever since I can remember! My neighbors growing up had cats, so I would always watch them when they were out of town. More recently, I have become my friend’s go-to cat sitter. I have taken care of my friend’s cats multiple times & love to play with them. I am also sure to send pictures and updates to make them feel better!
“This is my second time using Asiah to take care of my cat Simba. As usual, she was extremely communicative, timely, and professional. I trusted her to come to our home twice a day for 16 days. Simba always has a blast with her and she’ll be the first call next time we go out of town!”
About: If I had to choose cats or dogs as my favorite, I would probably say cats. Up until recently, I have only ever had cats as a pet! While working at an animal hospital, deep cleaning litter boxes and giving medicine was very routine. Even now, I deep clean my own cats litter box at least once a month. I am very comfortable taking care of kitties of all ages!
“Travis was excellent. He followed each of my steps for my two cats and was very communicative. I appreciated his thoroughness and his responsiveness! Although my cats hid during his visits, I felt immensely better by having someone check in on them!”
“Christi took care of our cat for multiples days ! She was awesome and our cat loved to play with her and her company! She followed all of our instructions and we felt completely confidents to take a trip without feeling worried about it.”
“Our furry friends love Scott! His patience and gentle approach helps even our feisty orange guy warm up to the unfamiliar house guest. We have been genuinely delighted and surprised by how well our buddies have embraced their new friend. Thank you, Scott, for keeping our four-legged friends entertained and cared for while we’re away.”
About: I’ve cared for cats for over 5 years and currently have two cats of my own. I’ve also helped family friends by feeding, checking in, and spending time with their cats while they were away. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I strive to provide patient, loving care while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I own pets and have been a pet sitter for over 15 years. I have expedience with lots of different pets (cats, dogs, and horses) I am very flexible during the day for pet walks, pet and house sitting. I work from home and have flexible hours during the day. I am respectful and trustworthy of all animals and property. I have my own pets and work hard to make sure they are loved and cared for.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Blacklick
“Kyla is AMAZING! My husband and I were in need of a sitter last minute and Kyla was quick to respond and super great at updates and communication. Our dog has been shedding a lot lately and Kyla took the time to groom her which was so kind! I can’t recommend Kyla enough for your dog sitting needs 🐶!”
“Rommel can be pretty shy around new folks so I am always nervous about introducing him to new people. He also isn’t a very affectionate dog (he only likes being petted when he first wakes up, then he has has enough and doesn’t really want that). When I went to pick him up he was loving all over them. I haven’t seen him warm up to anyone as quickly and as completely as he did here. What a wonderful experience!”
About: Hi, I’m Ariel—a lifelong Ohio resident, entrepreneur, and proud dog mom of 10+ years. I work primarily from home, which allows me to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day for dogs staying in my home or while caring for pets in their own home. Our home is shared with my sweet daughter and two friendly miniature dachshunds, creating a calm, family-oriented environment where many dogs quickly feel comfortable. Whether your pup is staying for doggy daycare, overnight boarding, or you’re looking for someone to care for your pets while staying in your home, I strive to make their experience as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. I know how difficult it can be to leave a beloved pet behind. That’s why I care for every dog as if they were part of my own family—with patience, affection, playtime, and plenty of updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pup! Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I run my own business from home, so I’m able to build dog walks and visits into my day while still keeping a consistent schedule. It’s something I genuinely enjoy because it gets me outside and allows me to spend time caring for dogs throughout the week. I care for every pet with patience and attention to their individual needs. In my home, dogs have access to a fully fenced yard where they can safely enjoy fresh air and playtime. I also live on a quiet street, which makes walks calm and relaxed. I always follow the routines and preferences owners share with me, whether that’s feeding schedules, exercise needs, or specific instructions for their pet’s comfort. My goal is to make sure each dog feels safe, cared for, and as comfortable as possible while their owner is away.
“My dog had a great time with Jodi and her family! Clem felt right at home and received excellent care and attention. Communications from Jodi were prompt and frequent. I highly recommend her!”
About: UPDATES! Due to my Husbands career change, I will be the main person that will be caring for your animals. He will help if needed or if any dogs come to our home. My husband and I have a lifelong experience with dogs. We both grew up with dogs. I had a Golden Retriever and he had a Labrador Retriever. We have experience with all different types of pups! We are a team and work together to love and care for every dog we care for. We have dedicated ourselves to learning all about dogs, their social behaviors, and how to keep them happy and healthy. My goal is to one day become a professional dog trainer. I guarantee after a day with me and my pup your dog will be happy and tired. :) UPDATE! Our schedule has temporarily changed due to my husband getting a new job. We will still be available for boarding but drop ins and walking will have to be limited to weekday evenings and anytime during the weekend. This will be the case until summer! Someday I would love to care for dogs as my full time job but it’s going to take some time. 🥰 We have a fully fenced in yard with a privacy fence. We have a very energetic and friendly Golden Retriever to keep your dog company. We have 2 kids who are big animal lovers who will love and play with the dogs all day! I am trustworthy and will accommodate your dogs schedule and needs whether i have your dog for the day, walking them, or just dropping in to check on them.

We are a pretty active family, our dogs are crate trained but also have free range of the house and are very much including in our daily lives.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life, helping my parents to take care of ours as a young teen. I adopted Charlie, my hound mix, and spent 12 incredible years with her. Hi! I am currently working from home, full time, and will be able to provide your dog with the best in home care, including lots of daytime walks! I am close to a park and am able to take your dog on long walks as well. I live a sweet community in Blacklick with lots of space for walks and play.

“Extremely reliable & so attentive to the needs of my dog and accommodating our busy life!! I’m endlessly grateful for her and her adorable daughter. They’re our number one go to for dog care in Ohio!!”
“Bronzy absolutely loves Barkwatch and so do I. He has been with them since the beginning. The care they provide for us is that of extended family. I really don’t trust him with anyone else. Not only do they provide great service but accommodating and knowledgeable when I comes to my fur baby.”
“Our dog can be nervous around new people, but Laken got down on the floor with her and snuggled to make her comfortable. She had her two small dogs who played well with ours. She has a fenced yard and our dog enjoyed running around. We felt like she received good care and looked very comfortable when we picked her up.”
About: There has never been a time in my life that I can’t remember not having a dog, I have owned many breeds, from a 2lb Pomeranian to a Great Pyrenees, from puppies to seniors I enjoy them all. Hi there! I took a short break from Rover for a few months, but I’m excited to be back and accepting bookings again. I’m now home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! I have a fenced backyard and three dogs to help keep your dog company. We have a built in doggie door so your dog will be able to go in and out as they want to, should they choose to use it.
“Brian helped us out with short notice when we needed someone to watch our pup Hank for a few hours while we attended an event. He was an excellent communicator and sent so many cute pics! Hank went right to sleep after he got home as he was tired out from playing with his new friends and running around the fenced in yard. Highly recommend Brian. We will definitely be using him again!”
“This was an outstanding experience and we will gladly trust our dog (Miss Maya) with Jennifer and family in the future. We booked last minute but she was quick to respond and accommodate us. Throughout her stay, we received frequent updates — a lot of pictures and videos. Jennifer watched Miss Maya for us two days in a row while work on the house was being done. In the car ride out on the second day, Miss Maya was anxious (we’d bounced around to different locations for over a week). Once we got to Jennifer’s home, however, she immediately relaxed. She trotted up to the door, tail wagging, and was clearly pleased to be back for another day. Jennifer’s children were so gentle and kind with Miss Maya. I can’t say enough good things about her. Thank you for taking such good care of Miss Maya!”
“Wonderful experience! My dog, Izzy, loved staying with Will and Bibiana. She enjoyed spending time with the other dogs and was taken care of very well.”
“Today was Mochi’s first time staying with Ronald, and he did an amazing job taking care of her. He kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear he was patient, attentive, and genuinely cared for her well-being. I really appreciated the updates and knowing Mochi was in good hands. I would definitely trust Ronald to watch her again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Elizabeth was great with Benji, she took pictures, and he came home tired and loved. He really enjoyed his time with Elizabeth and Mary Jane, we can’t wait to come back!”

“Darren is an amazing dog walker!! He shows up either a little before the scheduled walk or on time. Darren is very good with our boy, Trooper. Trooper loves him! Darren is kind, amiacable and very responsible; all qualities an exceptional dog walker should be!”
About: I currently have an 13year old English Bulldog, Roxy! She has always been pretty easy to please, make sure her food and water are full and her bed is available 😃 I have 4grandpups that live in Cincinnati. They know when they get to Grandma's neighborhood, they start getting excited and restless in the car. I also have 2 grand cats. They are two of the most laid back cats I have ever met. I watch them for my daughter when she has to travel.I also have a Bearded Dragon, Jose. He is probably 7years old. I'm looking to blend my free time with my love for dogs and really all animals (I don't do snakes 😬) . I do work during the week so would be able to do more evening and weekend walks, drop-in, etc.. I look forward to meeting you!! I get an hour lunch at my Monday -Thursday job. I have some flexibility to go home and give a potty break. I am pretty flexible with a sleep schedule also. We have a fenced backyard and own our home. I also have a 13 year old English Bulldog, Roxy, that gets along with our 4grandpups.
About: I have had a dog ever since I was born, and am now 23 years old! I helped train my newest dog, so I have a lot of experience in puppy training. My last dog unfortunately had to have her leg amputated when she got older, so I also have experience with disabled dogs. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter for years, so I am good with all kinds of dogs- big and small, anxious and energetic, etc. Whenever one of my friends is out of town, I am their go-to pet sitter. I pet sit for a lot of my friend’s cats, so while I’ve never had one, I know how to take care of them. My dog, Rosie, is my entire world, so I know how important your pets are to you! I will treat them as if they are my own :). I do have a full-time job, but it is very flexible. I am able to leave during the day if needed for your pet! My nights are always free too, so I am able to house-sit. Your pet will be my #1 priority in my routine! I will keep your pet safe with my life! I will ensure they are on a leash when outside and make sure they are comfortable and getting their exercise in. Inside, I love to play with them! I will ensure no doors are left open so they can’t slip outside to maintain their safety. But I will make sure they are having fun while inside!
About: I’ve grown up around animals and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own. I’ve also helped family friends by caring for their pets while they’re away, including feeding, walks, playtime, and checkins. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I currently work part time , which gives me flexibility for dog walks, drop in visits, and pet care throughout the week. I’m committed to being dependable, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a walk, playtime, or some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As the owner of two dogs and two cats, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and exercise needs. During visits, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and supervision, and I’ll provide updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“John met us on his own time to get acquainted to the house and acclimated with the dogs. One of our dogs was very shy but John took the time and care to get her warmed up to him so she could comfortably walk with them. He's been on time every day and willing to work with our schedule even if there are last minute changes. You can tell he is doing this because he really enjoys and cares about the animals. Make sure to book him quick if he's still available!”
“Rachel was great with Grace! Provided us with updates on how the walks went, whether or not she was eating while we were gone, and her overall mood. The pics of Grace she included in the card were great, too! Thank a ton!”

About: I’ve had pets since I was 5! After college I adopted my own dog who passed away at 15. I’ve pet sit for various friends and family members and have experience with dogs 6 pounds to 80! I currently teach yoga, am in graduate school, and freelancing. My schedule is rather flexible which allows me to add this into my daily schedule. At this time, I’m not inviting pets into my home. If I have regular clients whose pets I get to know, I will be open to in the future. Since I have a cat, I want to ensure the comfortability of both pets.
“Emma was very polite and professional took very good care of the dog and showed up on time every time stayed in contact with me. I’m very happy with the service I received will definitely be contacting Emma next time”
About: I have been taking care of animals (mostly dogs) for many years. I have taken a 4 year vet program and was a certified veterinary assistant! I know basic first aid for cats and dogs. I pride myself on being a loving, reliable, and safe person for your fur babies! I am currently working a part time job but before and after my job I can happily walk and play with your animals. Wednesday’s and Saturdays I do not work so I can walk more, play more, or stay for longer periods of time/check up more frequently. I am happy to help your pets by feeding, walking, and playing with them. I can also kennel them if needed/asked. I do not feel comfortable with reactive/aggressive animals.
About: I have years of hands-on pet care experience and have grown up around animals. I’m reliable, attentive, and focused on keeping pets comfortable, happy, and safe while their owners are away. I’m currently not working, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time to walk, play, and give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I take safety and trust very seriously. I follow routines carefully, keep pets supervised, and make sure they feel comfortable and secure in a clean, calm environment at all times.
“Kayla is literally incredible. She’s so kind, she treats my dog with respect. She’s super responsive and willing to go above and beyond. She is our main go to since we’ve moved here to Columbus and I’m extremely grateful for her.”
About: There has never been a time in my life that I can’t remember not having a dog, I have owned many breeds, from a 2lb Pomeranian to a Great Pyrenees, from puppies to seniors I enjoy them all. Hi there! I took a short break from Rover for a few months, but I’m excited to be back and accepting bookings again. I’m now home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! I have a fenced backyard and three dogs to help keep your dog company. We have a built in doggie door so your dog will be able to go in and out as they want to, should they choose to use it.
About: I bring a fun, bubbly personality to every visit—but what truly sets me apart is the way I understand animal behavior. As a psychology major, I’ve trained my own dogs using positive reinforcement and classical conditioning (Pavlov’s principles), focusing on consistency, trust, and communication rather than punishment. Because of this approach, my dogs were well-mannered, confident, and happy: they never chewed household items, had house accidents, or developed anxiety-based behaviors. I believe great pet care is about more than supervision—it’s about guiding behavior with patience, encouragement, and love! I work a couple hours during the day and take care of my two kids (3 and 6) at the house. I often have online classes so there’s always something to do for me at home! My kids miss having our dog, Big Boy, around to pet and snuggle. He was 16 when he passed away.😥 We have a lot of love to give and miss having a dog! I am a non-smoker with a clean house. I have white carpet😂 but have a handy carpet cleaner in case your pet has an accident😜 I also have multiple dog leashes and couplers so can walk three dogs at a time. I have carpeted stairs- which is easier for older pups. I do have large crates if your pup needs to be crated (unless they are potty trained -then that would not be necessary). Dogs are allowed on my couches. I have lots of cozy blankets! It’s a quiet end of street neighborhood. Dogs are all “puppies” to me and I love them!
“Kyla has been wonderful to work with! Our energetic pup has lots of rules after training and Kyla was very open to learning our expectations for him. She already has been perpetuating his training. She has our dog walking right next to her like he does with us. Highly recommend!”
About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs. I currently have a 17 yr old corgi mix and a 3 yr corgi. I have experience with giving meds to dogs. I love exploring new places and having furry friends with me. I grew up with a lab mix so I have some medium/large dog experience too. I'm not a sit around person and I'm hoping to make some new fur baby friends in my free time. I am the person at parties who is usually playing with the dog. My dogs are different walk types. I have one sniff walker and one racer who loves distance. I can walk your dogs in whatever way you need to get them exercised and burn some energy for you.
About: I absolutely love animals! I grew up in a home full of dogs and cats, and helping care for them was such a big part of my life growing up. I now have a cat of my own, my fur baby, Fish 🐱 I recently graduated from PA school and won’t be starting my job until August, which means I have lots of availability this summer! Spending my days with animals honestly sounds like the perfect way to spend the season. I’d love the opportunity to care for and spend time with your pets! (: I don’t start work until August, so I have a pretty open schedule and lots of availability! I do have one week-long vacation planned this summer, but aside from that, my schedule is very flexible. I’d prefer to handle most pet care during the week, but I’m available on weekends as well! 😊 It’s a single-story home, so I’m always nearby and able to keep a close eye on any pets in the house. We also have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and play!
“Patricia is absolutely wonderful! Always on time. Very patient. Great communicator—even sends photos of our guys with updates about the visits. They just love her! The peace of mind she provides is immeasurable.”

“Joe is our regular sitter for our senior dog when we go out of town. Leaving our dog shamu used to be stressful because of his separation anxiety, but Joe and him have formed a bond and now traveling is stress free for both shammy and us.

“Kat was/is truly amazing with my Zara! I received updates daily by text and videos. I could tell Zara was treated like her own.

“Tamisha is absolutely wonderful! She stayed in contact with me the entire time my fur-baby was in her care. She was kind and has such a sweet character. Definitely recommend!”
“Ellen is a great pet sitter! My dog Hobie stayed with her for almost a week and had a great time. Ellen always responded quickly to any communication with her and sent daily updates on how Hobie was doing. He had a great time playing with Ellen's dog Zooey and going on outings to the parks around town. Thanks for a great first experience with Rover!”
“I booked Lauren for the second time, and once again she was amazing! She takes such great care of my Xena and really caters to her needs, especially when it comes to food and routines. I love that she sends plenty of updates throughout the visit, it gives me so much peace of mind. She’s professional, attentive, and genuinely cares. I absolutely love her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Mary did a great job with sending daily updates and following my thorough instructions for my senior dog with cancer. He seemed to get lots of positive stimulation with her and her dogs. Would definitely book again.”
“Karen was great with Tucker ! I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a sitter. Would definitely use her services again and I know Tucker would enjoy it too !!!”
“The comfort of knowing that my boys were loved and cared for so well, was the best part of having them stay with Sally! We received pictures and videos all week while we vacationed - not having to worry about their well-being was so refreshing and relieving. I know these dogs will always enjoy their time with Sally. It’s like they have a vacation of their own!”
“Will and Bibiana were amazing! Very responsive and sent us lots of pictures. Aldo and Naxos had a great time playing in the backyard and enjoyed their walks. They are worn out from all the play time!”
“Alex was the first host I used on Rover. I was a bit worried about using this app, but Alex made my first experience amazing! She is so friendly and truly has a heart for animals. I have already booked with her a few times since and my doggo loves to stay with her. She is very flexible and has even dropped my dog back off to me. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Alex for taking such good care of Amani!”
“Watched my anxiety riddled dog for a week with no problems! I received updates throughout the week and Abigail was very organized in helping make sure my dog has everything he needed to have a good visit. He was also sound asleep when I brought him home within 5 minutes from all the playtime. Definitely recommend and I will use again myself!”
