“Tina is awesome. She loves our little girl and makes her daycare, as well as her overnight stays enjoyable. Roo sprints to her door when we arrive. She’s very accommodating and flexible with our schedules. I love that I can get a response from her quickly. She’s a great Rover sitter and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a genuine lover of dogs.”
“Samantha was excellent! We had a meet and greet ahead of my dog Bleu’s stay, and Samantha was incredibly kind, responsive, patient, and flexible ahead of, during, and after Bleu’s stay. I would highly recommend her for your pet(s)!”
“I loved getting the picture updates and seeing Apollo playing with the kids and other dog while we were away. It really helped knowing he was being cared for by a loving family and not just held in a kennel. Thank you so much and I hope you will care for Apollo again.”
“From the moment we stepped into Cristi’s home, we could tell our pup felt comfortable and loved. Cristi sent frequent updates and photos through out the stay. She really went out of her way to make sure we knew our dog was getting spoiled and loved on while we were away which is all we could’ve ever wanted! Will definitely be using Cristi everytime we need a dog sitter!!!!”
“My dog stayed with Joe for 2 weeks which is the longest time I have ever left her with someone. She came back very happy and healthy. Joe frequently sent me pictures which was very reassuring to me. I heartily reject Joe as a Dogsitter!”
“Deanna took great care of our pup and was sure to send lots of updates with cute photos and videos. Our dog had fun playing with hers and running around in her spacious yard!”
“Our chocolate lab had a wonderful time with Emily! They sent pictures often and she always looked loved and that she was having a great time. She gave us great peace of mind and would definitely not hesitate to use her again!!”
“Our dog Ninja had a great time with Sally. We're not local to Columbus so it was much appreciated to have someone to look after our dog while we attended a family reunion. Next time we are in the are we will be sure to book Sally again.”
“My miniature Goldendoodle was in great spirits after her 7-day stay. I got plenty of updates. No issues were noted with her care. I would highly recommend them to anyone!”
“Exceptional sitter ! Elizabeth went above and beyond in her care for Tucker ! Very professional and did a great job communicating. Would definitely recommend !”
“Joy filled in when our regular sitter was on vacation and I can’t recommend her enough. We got daily updates (at minimum) and lots of pictures during our dogs’ week-long stay. Communication was great and the dogs were so loved on! She was very accommodating and has a perfect space for pup sitting. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and hope we have another chance!”
“We found a treasure when we asked Kelly and Ben to help watch our dog while we were out of town! They love that she wanted to meet our Daisy before we made the final arrangements. That gave us such peace of mind. Our pup walked into their beautiful home, and she instantly felt comfortable. Their home is warm and gave us a feeling that our dog would be so well loved while we had to be out of town. Kelly also showed how much she cared and how knowledgeable she is by asking all the right questions and loving on Daisy like she was already a part of their family. Communication was terrific too! We received pictures throughout the weekend of Daisy on walks and being her sweet and silly self with Kelly’s family too! We are so happy with the experience that we already scheduled another time out of town - knowing that our Daisy girl will be totally spoiled and cared for while we are gone. Thank you to Kelly and her family for loving our dog like we do!❤️”
“Leslie was great with my dog during our 5 day vacation. My dog was not happy about being separated from his people and his home. He whined, paced and scratched at the doors the first night and Leslie even slept on the couch with him to help put him at ease. She let him acclimate at his own pace and was very patient. He did eventually settle in and start enjoying his time with her family. It was nice to know that he was in a safe and loving space while we were away and for that I am grateful. I would definitely recommend Leslie when it comes to caring for your furry family members.”
“Karen truly is the best. We have a very energetic pup and finding someone to watch him has not been the easiest. Karen is so kind and caring with our dog just loves her!”

“Finding Bethani was like an early Christmas! She was absolutely wonderful - professional, kind, so personable, communicative, and our Bean Kitty adored her and the visits! This was our first Rover experience and we are incredibly grateful.”
About: I have a passion for fitness and a love for all pets!! Will gladly walk any and all dogs! I am a professional anthlete and I love being outdoors. Dog walking is the perfect way to combine everything I enjoy. No need to worry about being too busy to give your dog the exercise and outdoors time they deserve because your pets will be in great hands with me! They will get the exercise they need and I’ll even do my best to tire out those little pups that have more energy than you can handle! I have an upbeat pup at home so I know exactly what it’s like. Very willing and able to work around your needs and schedules. I’m currently in the off season so I have plenty of time to tend to your pups! I love exercise and being outdoors so enough activity is no problem. I have a friendly dog and plenty of access to green space. I’m home a lot and very attentive to dogs care and needs
“Britton was wonderful! She took great care of the animals, and went the extra mile to make our timid cat comfortable. Her communication was fantastic as well, I would highly recommend her!”
About: I truly love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Every pup I meet gets treated with the same compassion and care I’d give my own. At the same time, I know dogs thrive with gentle structure — so I balance cuddles and play with consistency that helps them feel safe and confident. I also believe happy, well-behaved dogs start with their natural needs being met. By giving them the right mix of exercise, enrichment, and attention to their instincts, I help make sure they feel fulfilled, calm, and loved while you’re away. With me, your dog isn’t just looked after — they’re understood. My work schedule is flexible and I have time between dropping off and picking up kids from school to fill in the gaps those are usually the hardest times for professionals that work traditional work schedule. I do have a fenced-in backyard, but I believe dogs deserve more than just space to run — they thrive on walks, enrichment, and structured training. That’s why I focus on giving them real stimulation and enjoyable experiences that go beyond the basics. When life gets busy, dogs often get bored and find their own ways to create “excitement” — not always the kind owners appreciate. By providing structured adventures, I channel that energy into positive outlets, helping your dog come home happy, tired, and fulfilled.
“We had a fantastic experience with Vanessa! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we really appreciated the thoughtful updates and adorable photos of our cats each day. She spent quality time playing with them, gave them treats, and it was clear they felt comfortable and happy-our Bella even sat on her lap, which says a lot! She also went above and beyond by washing their dishes and keeping their water bowls full and fresh. Everything was clean and tidy when we returned. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again. Thank you!”
About: I grew up with cats, and they were all very special to me. I currently own a black kitty named Moonlight, who has brought me much joy for the last six years. In owning cats, I have no fear of cleaning litter, giving them their preferred scratches, and providing medication.
About: I have cared for my neighbors’ cats since I was a kid, along with my family’s own cats. I LOVE cats & adopted my own in college. I am patient with them, loving, reliable & respect specific cats’ needs. I just want to make them feel comfortable and loved!
About: If your cat is shy and you are afraid they may not eat or get attention while you are gone, I am all about being besties at their pace. We may not be besties by the time I leave, but he/she will know I want to be their friend so the next time, we will be besties. I LOVE cats. And I am willing to work hard to make sure they are happy while you are gone.
“Ava has been wonderful! She came to meet Oscar and they hit it off right away. She has been excellent with quick communication and lets me know how the visits have gone. I very much appreciate Ava and couldn’t recommend her enough!”
About: I grew up with a dog and I also worked at a vet clinic for 7 years. I went to tech school and absolutely love animals. You never have to worry if your furry friend is getting the play time or love they need! I have pet sit many of our family friends pets and feel comfortable around any size animal and breed. I can medicate animals if needed and I promise to always treat your pet as if they were my own. I will help keep them stress free and not worrying about where their owner is. I make things like nothing has changed. I love meeting new pets of all kinds. I'm more than happy to come to your home and make your pets feel safe and keep them as comfortable as possible while your away I work from home which gives me more flexibility to pop in and spend time with your pet so they don't feel lonely. It also gives me the flexibility to work anywhere, so I can take my work with me and hang out during the day so they aren't home alone. My routine is keeping their routine as normal for them as possible. I want them to be able to adjust to me being there with them but be like nothing has changed when the owners come back home.
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!
About: Hi! My name is Lizzy. I am 26 years old and have been a dog owner for a little over eleven years. I absolutely love animals, especially dogs and cats.

Also, I have experience working in a dog kennel in Pataskala. I love dogs of all sizes and age ranges. I enjoy long walks and equally enjoy snuggling up with a furry friend. Shoot me a text or give me a call if you would like to know more or book me. Looking forward to getting to know you and your pet(s)! : I’m a stay at home mom, so my two boys would be coming along for the ride when caring for your pet(s). I’m flexible for the most part.

“I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”

“Tina was as good for me as she was for Tommy! I had a pretty busy, stressful day ahead of me and she took a lot of my problems away by giving me a safe place to leave Tommy where he could play and be kept busy while I got my things taken care of pretty efficiently. Her compassion and kindness will not be forgotten.”
About: Growing up I have always cared for our family pets. Today I have 3 rescue dogs of my own. My pups are apart of my family. I volunteer to transport dogs to a safe homes. Animals of any type depend on their humans to care for them. When their humans can’t be there for some reason they still need that special care and attention. I have always struggled when leaving my dogs to go away. What do I do with them? Who will care for them like I do? I would like to help people to be at ease knowing your pet will be well taken care of in my hands because I understand what it is like to have that worry. I will care for your pet as though they are mine.
“Cassie was amazing!! This was Tilly's first pet sitter experience and Cassie made everything great!! Highly recommend Cassie!! She will be my go to if I ever need a pet sitter again!! 10 STARS!!!!”
“Samantha was amazing! She took our pup in for doggy daycare last minute, was so kind and caring, and took fantastic care of our pup! She sent me updates throughout the day with pictures and was so flexible and accommodating to meet our pup’s needs and provide him with the best experience. He loved running and playing with her dogs and came home so happy! Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be using her daycare services again!”
About: I have a two bully breed babies, Paris and Ozzy (Oswald). From one dog momma to another yes ofc your dog can sleep on my furniture! I am a final year ADN-RN student and a PRN Student Nurse outside of class. However, do not let those busy titles fool you I’m very very revolved around my babies and I can be with yours too! I have spent my whole childhood following into adulthood working with a variety of pups with different behaviors/personalities/ and specific needs so I’m convinced I can handle just about anything your pup has to throw at me. I’m definitely not the gal who is ashamed of going out with an extra layer of dog hair to complete my look and I’m certainly not one to pass up a slobbery kiss. We have PLENTY of toys/treats to share and lots of on the go things for walks and playtime at the dog park (don’t worry I have seatbelts for the pups, safety first!) pls reach out to me for any of your fur baby care you might need I’m very flexible as I’m just doing this truthfully for the pleasure of meeting your sweet babies, giving my gal some friends to play with, and some extra money bc lord knows living isn’t cheap as a college student, HA! Don’t feel like holding back on any questions or concerns. I promise I’m very sweet and patient as I have worked with many pups who give me a run for my money but most of the time those are the ones I love having most! I’m very flexible! I have work and school throughout the week ofc, but my schedule is very capable of being attentive to your pet(s) as well as my own. If your pup has any care/daily needs that could potentially run into a concern of yours that you believe I may not have time for don’t be afraid to discuss with me I’m more than willing to work with accommodating to your needs!! My sweet babies Ozzy and Paris are both big fan of outdoor playtime and car rides and they love inviting new friends along for adventures! I am a firm believer in dogs ARE allowed on furniture why would it be fair for them to not also be comfy on the couch or bed ?! I am pretty laid back in my home when it comes to the “pet rules” for the most part. I will treat your pup(s) like my own and ofc send you pictures and videos every time they do something I know I wouldn’t wanna miss out on seeing with my own!
About: I am 23, I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals since I was a baby and have grown up with 20+ dog breeds, I’ve raised and trained Puppies with my mom for years. I have a huge heart for all animals and don’t have any allergies, I do have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 ball python and a decent sized backyard. I give all animals plenty of love, attention and playtime, there is forest and field parks around me so if your dog is good on a leash I can take them there to run around and play, my neighborhood is quiet and calm all the time other than dogs barking few times throughout the day, they will love it here. I’m an animal nerd and know how to care for almost any animal including reptiles, amphibians and bugs! I currently have no job due to my agoraphobia making it very hard to work and have a steady income, I am available all day every day unless I have plans I have a fenced in yard but live in a small house, all of my animals are people and pet friendly so they will not show any aggression towards you or your pets
“Bill and Mary are a great team that took care of our pup and showed him lots of love. We appreciated a "meet and greet" with their dogs and ours to ensure they got along okay. Our pup was able to play very well with their three dogs. From the way he came home tired, he had an awesome time playing with Bill, Mary and the other dogs.”
About: I grew up with a black lab, Macey and a Chihuahua mix, Tootsie and took care of them from when I was young until around the age of 16 when they passed away. I also regularly dog sat 5 dogs at once- all with specific needs, diets and medications before the family moved away. I am comfortable with high energy dogs, I will happily administer medication, and we have 2 acres of fenced in land for your dog to run and play! I am a flight attendant so my schedule varies- usually I work 3-4 days a month and they are never the same. Request and I’ll accept if I’m not flying that day, but other than occasional work I’m pretty much always home! I would love to have a dog but because I’m a flight attendant I know I couldn’t give it the consistency and love it would need- however, on days I am home I would LOVE to have a furry friend to play with. We would be happy to host your dog(s) and let them run around our fenced in back yard, explore the barn, and roam the house. We only accept dogs that are good with children and that are potty trained. We have a large kennel if your dog is crate trained and you would like us to use it, but as long as it’s good with kids it’s free to explore. We can administer medication, give treats, and share lots of love and we hope you’ll trust us with your beloved pups ❤️ P.S. my favorite breeds are corgis, labs and golden doodles :) but I’m not picky, all dogs will receive equal love 😉
About: I’m a stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule and a great space for your fur baby to play! I’ve owned a lot of different dogs breeds my entire life ranging in size from a chihuahua to a golden retriever. I love routine and will follow your dog care needs exactly how they’re used to. They will receive a ton of love, cuddles and play time from me and my three animal loving kids. We have 5 acres of yard space to play and maintained walking trails in the back of our property for daily walks. I will only accept dogs that are potty trained and good with little kids. I’m happy to administer medication, give treats and give you plenty of updates on how they are doing as I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else. I am home a lot and have a very flexible schedule. I can give frequent bathroom breaks and follow whatever schedule your dog is used too I have a very large yard to run and play in and have well maintained grass walking trails on my property. Your dog(s) will receive a lot of love and attention.
About: I have experience with both puppies and seniors. Includes potty training obedience training, dominance training. I’ve worked at a humane society and owned rescue dogs. My approach is to find each individual dog’s motivation to help them grow, learn, and mature. I currently have 2 dogs of my own and enjoy walking and taking them on adventures. I do community work within my school district and would love the added opportunities to fit my love for dogs in my routine more. With dogs non-verbal queues are very important in understanding behavior, needs, and temperament. I pay attention give them good food exercise is a must! When dealing with new dogs, speaking with the owner and what they want is top priority. Setting goals for our poochie pals allows a measurement for tracking success.
“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: We’ve always been big dog people. Growing up around dogs taught us just how much love, attention, and care they truly need and we genuinely believe pups shouldn’t be left alone for long stretches. That’s why we’re passionate about helping others give their dogs the fun, companionship, and consistent care they deserve when life gets busy. We both adore dogs (they honestly make us so happy and bring us a ton of joy), and we’d be excited to play, cuddle, and keep your pup feeling safe and loved. Over the years, friends and family have trusted us again and again to care for their dogs, whether they’re out of town or just need a helping hand. We also enjoy training, and we’re always patiently working on new tricks and good habits with our golden retriever, Daisy! We have amazing work flexibility. We can work around people's schedules. It would just be a matter of coordinating between me and the owner of the pup. In our home, your dog will have a safe, closed fenced backyard to run and play, plenty of toys, and the company of our friendly golden retriever, Daisy. We keep preventive dog meds on hand for things like allergies, and your pup will always have access to fresh water, food, and a variety of treats.
“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 🐶!”
About: I treat every dog like family—because that’s how I care for my own! I’ve spent years caring for my dogs and those of friends and family, especially while they were out of town. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including playful puppies and slower-moving seniors who need extra patience and love. Whether it’s belly rubs, slow strolls, or high-energy playtime, I adjust to meet each dog’s unique needs. Your pup will be pampered, safe, and loved—just like they deserve! Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. I work part-time as a home health caregiver three days a week. On those days, I have a split schedule—just 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon, with a break in between. This gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. Outside of those hours, my schedule is very open, allowing me to give your pet the love, attention, and care they need—whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every dog like my own—loved, pampered, and well cared for. I make sure they have a calm, clean, and secure environment, free of hazards and full of attention. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, from meal times and medication to play and potty breaks. I also send regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. With my background as a home health caregiver, being attentive, responsible, and trustworthy is second nature to me—qualities I bring to every pet I care for.
“Ashleigh and family took care of our 12 week old Cairn Terrier puppy while we took a day trip to visit family out of town. She seemed instantly at ease with him, her daughters were obviously very good with dogs and we had little doubt our pup would enjoy his "camp" experience. He did and even made friends with their pug. We had been looking for a sitter during the week and gladly would go with Ashleigh if it was easier on the commute. Zero concerns and I highly recommend trying them out.”
About: Hi there! I’m Awia, and I’ve had around 25 years of experience caring for animals. I’ve shared my life with many wonderful dogs and cats, and I currently have a sweet Pekingese named Peking along with two cats, Lolli and Ashley. They’re all friendly, gentle, and used to having new furry friends around. I’ve also volunteered walking dogs at various animal shelters over the years—animals have always been a huge part of my life. I also have six wonderful children who absolutely adore animals. They’re gentle, respectful, and regularly nominated for Kindness Awards at their school. Your pet will receive extra love, attention, and cuddle sessions from them—helping your furry family member feel right at home. I’m currently working on my nonprofit organization, and during my downtime I’ve chosen to walk dogs and care for animals. It’s such a fun and rewarding way to spend the day—you get to hang out with adorable pups, enjoy some exercise, and soak up the sunshine. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for your pets. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I’m fortunate to live within a beautiful nature preserve and park system. This means your pup can enjoy walks along scenic, well-maintained paths with plenty of fresh air and minimal street traffic. If boarding, I’ll make sure your dog gets regular, safe walks and plenty of attention, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. All of my personal pets—Peking, Lolli, and Ashley—are up to date on vaccinations, and are on flea and heartworm prevention medication. For the safety and comfort of all animals, I kindly ask that visiting pets are also clean and flea-free. If a pet arrives needing a bath, I’m happy to provide one, and a pet bath fee will be added to your booking. This ensures a fresh, healthy, and pleasant environment for everyone.
“Jodi accepted my last minute request and did an amazing job caring for our pup! Benny is pooped after playing all day and her backyard is great for dogs that like to sniff and have space to run. Thanks again!”

“Kayla is great. She’s very responsive and gives lots of feedback after each visit. I have a newly adopted dog that has some behavior issues and I wanted someone with some experience and Kayla has been able to handle anything that comes up. The dogs know when she is supposed to come and are so excited when she shows up!”

“Camryn was wonderful with our Old English Sheepdogs! Not many people can handle too extra large dogs at the same time, but it was like she had been doing it her entire life. My girls absolutely loved her, and you could see her love for them. Camryn also followed instructions well, and made sure that my girls got everything that they needed. I will definitely be rebooking her in the future! Thank you Camryn!”
About: My name is Jordan Harris and I am an animal lover hoping to be able to make a difference in you and your pets life! I have worked with animals in my daily career for the last 10 years, beginning as a kennel technician in a large boarding facility, working in doggy daycare, grooming, and basic obedience dog training. I was promoted to General Manager in 2017 and in 2021 I left my job at the boarding facility to pursue a career in Veterinary Medicine. I currently am a Clinic Office Manager at a veterinary clinic where we care for cats, dogs, and exotic pets. After working in boarding for so many years, I understand that not all pets do well in a boarding facility. I am hoping to offer families and their pets the peace of mind and comfort for your pet however I can, in your home. I currently work full time, 4 days a week. I am free on the weekends and would be more than happy to discuss my weekly availability. 🙂 I do have a 5 year old daughter that may come along from time to time; however only if necessary. If your pet doesn’t do well with children please let me know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly. I am comfortable dispensing medication/strict diets, and handling dogs with special needs such as behavioral, medical, etc. Tell me how your pet prefers their attention and exercise and we will do it their way!
About: I have grown up around many different types of animals my whole life, shy, reactive, overly friendly. I am very patient when it comes to animals. My goal whenever I hangout with an animal is to make sure they know they can trust me. I have to take care of my three dogs at my house, with help from my family but during the day Im the one who is usually home. I love to take my dog for a walk or even a run sometimes. I care for my pets and any pets I get to watch like they're my own. I will play with them, or hangout with them for a long time (they're the best company).
About: I am a real estate photographer looking to fill in the gaps in my day, and to get me out of the house on days where I’m not too busy. In my free time I like bird watch as well as visit with and walk the dogs at the Franklin county dog shelter! And growing up my family fostered dogs, which allowed me to have plenty of experience with puppy’s to senior dogs of all different breeds and sizes! More recently I have been raising a blue heeler with my dad and I have been reminded of how much better life is with a dog! I’d love to help relieve some stress for those of you who might need a little extra help. I am a real estate photographer, so I usually have lots of downtime in between shoots. I’m also always available in the afternoons past 5 and most weekends! I am able to take long walks with your babies near your home, and I can even transport to dog parks or other areas if needed!
About: I own a husky, american terrier mix, and a cat. I often care for family member pets as well. Whether they are big, small, feline, or canine, I have been around them all and understand how unique each animal can be. I have an open schedule so I can spend as much time with your pet as you like. I am available on weekends for drop-ins, or walks. I understand that each pet and their home deserve the utmost respect. Your needs as well as your pet's are very important to me which is why I will see every request is met.

We have PLENTY of toys/treats to share and lots of on the go things for walks and playtime at the dog park (don’t worry I have seatbelts for the pups, safety first!) pls reach out to me for any of your fur baby care you might need I’m very flexible as I’m just doing this truthfully for the pleasure of meeting your sweet babies, giving my gal some friends to play with, and some extra money bc lord knows living isn’t cheap as a college student, HA! Don’t feel like holding back on any questions or concerns. I promise I’m very sweet and patient as I have worked with many pups who give me a run for my money but most of the time those are the ones I love having most! I’m very flexible! I have work and school throughout the week ofc, but my schedule is very capable of being attentive to your pet(s) as well as my own. If your pup has any care/daily needs that could potentially run into a concern of yours that you believe I may not have time for don’t be afraid to discuss with me I’m more than willing to work with accommodating to your needs!! My sweet babies Ozzy and Paris are both big fan of outdoor playtime and car rides and they love inviting new friends along for adventures! I am a firm believer in dogs ARE allowed on furniture why would it be fair for them to not also be comfy on the couch or bed ?! I am pretty laid back in my home when it comes to the “pet rules” for the most part. I will treat your pup(s) like my own and ofc send you pictures and videos every time they do something I know I wouldn’t wanna miss out on seeing with my own!
About: i enjoy spending time with dogs and playing with them. i bath both of my dogs and i take them on walks to get some energy out I work a full time job but I get a break from 12:30-3 and i’m off work at 5:30 everyday during the week. I don’t work on the weekends therefore i’m usually free during the weekend. my house doesn’t have a fence so for our puppy we use a lead that goes into the ground that way he’s able to run and not be on a leash.
About: With two years of experience caring for dogs and other animals, including volunteer work at a local dog shelter, I offer reliable and compassionate pet care services. As a pet owner myself (two cats, three dogs, fish), I understand the importance of a safe and nurturing environment. I am also comfortable caring for fish, reptiles, and plants, and can provide light housekeeping. Currently, I am pursuing a degree in veterinary medicine, further enhancing my knowledge and skills in animal care. i am open availability and update my calendar regularly! i can do drop ins multiple times a day, and walks multiple times a day ! i have 3 friendly dogs in my home and 3 cats, right now since i do not live alone it isn’t in my range to keep animals in my home
“We are so happy to have found Samantha on Rover. She is super nice, responds quickly to inquiries, arrives right on schedule and, most importantly, is great with our beagle. Five stars!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, and ducks for family and friends when they needed someone. I’m very comfortable doing longer periods of time if needed, I love playing with animals on top of just the necessities! I’m currently working part-time and I’m able to schedule around certain times as needed. In the fall I start college again with plenty of break times! I prefer to stay where the animals are used to. I communicate constantly while I’m watching someone else animals by sending pictures, videos, and regular updates.
About: I genuinely love caring for animals—it’s something I truly enjoy! With 3 years of experience, I’ve provided dependable, compassionate care for both dogs and cats of all ages. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I’ve worked with energetic puppies, mellow senior pets, and everything in between. Whether it’s walks, playtime, medication, or overnight stays, I treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekends, which are fully open for walks. On weekdays, I’m available after 5:30 PM for special cases or evening care. I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that meets their needs! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in the client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. I keep a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, and I closely follow any instructions provided by the owner. I also give regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and connected while they’re away.
About: I truly love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Every pup I meet gets treated with the same compassion and care I’d give my own. At the same time, I know dogs thrive with gentle structure — so I balance cuddles and play with consistency that helps them feel safe and confident. I also believe happy, well-behaved dogs start with their natural needs being met. By giving them the right mix of exercise, enrichment, and attention to their instincts, I help make sure they feel fulfilled, calm, and loved while you’re away. With me, your dog isn’t just looked after — they’re understood. My work schedule is flexible and I have time between dropping off and picking up kids from school to fill in the gaps those are usually the hardest times for professionals that work traditional work schedule. I do have a fenced-in backyard, but I believe dogs deserve more than just space to run — they thrive on walks, enrichment, and structured training. That’s why I focus on giving them real stimulation and enjoyable experiences that go beyond the basics. When life gets busy, dogs often get bored and find their own ways to create “excitement” — not always the kind owners appreciate. By providing structured adventures, I channel that energy into positive outlets, helping your dog come home happy, tired, and fulfilled.
About: I had dogs growing up as a child and have taken care of them on and off throughout my whole life, but some specific examples of pet care include: taking care of my Grandparents 2 dogs when they no longer could, taking care of my best friends dogs (and many cats) when she goes on vacation, & of course taking care of my 2 cats that I am currently a mom of (I have had cats throughout my whole adult life). I understand the importance of allowing animals to get comfortable with you and come to you on their own terms and not trying to force them to let you pet them or play with them. I am comfortable taking the time to slowly encourage an animal to be comfortable in my presence. I am currently working part-time while I finish my degree, so I am available fairly often to help take care of your beloved animals. I am extremely reliable and I am often available for last minute situations and happy to help. I have experience and am comfortable with dog walking, picking up waste, and crating dogs when needed. I am willing to assist with cleaning litter boxes as needed and am willing to take time to play with and give your animals attention and love while you are away from the home.

“Joy filled in when our regular sitter was on vacation and I can’t recommend her enough. We got daily updates (at minimum) and lots of pictures during our dogs’ week-long stay. Communication was great and the dogs were so loved on! She was very accommodating and has a perfect space for pup sitting. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and hope we have another chance!”
“Leslie was great with my dog during our 5 day vacation. My dog was not happy about being separated from his people and his home. He whined, paced and scratched at the doors the first night and Leslie even slept on the couch with him to help put him at ease. She let him acclimate at his own pace and was very patient. He did eventually settle in and start enjoying his time with her family. It was nice to know that he was in a safe and loving space while we were away and for that I am grateful. I would definitely recommend Leslie when it comes to caring for your furry family members.”

“Fantastic!! This was our first experience with using Rover. We could not be happier with the wonderful family that took care of my Enzo while we went away for several days. Hannah and her family took Enzo in as a family member. She kept me informed and sent pictures and videos of him living a good life with her family. Hannah was fabulous!”
“Keylor and Grace were very accommodating when I was running late and when I picked Molly up earlier than expected. They were gracious and kind and took very good care of our Frenchie. She had such a good time with the bigger dogs; she was sad at home without them.”
“Amy was able to sit for my dog Ivy for four days on very short notice. She was very accommodating and really want the extra mile to work with me on schedule. She has a lovely home with a nice fenced backyard for your pup. Her fur baby Roxy is such a sweetheart and immediately was friendly with my 100 pound dog. Amy was amazing at sending me updates and pictures during Ivy’s stay. I would 100% use her again in the future!”
