“Blue has been watched by Dawn and Robert since he was about 9 months old, he is now 2 and still LOVES going to their house. He loves all the attention he gets from the grandkids, and the huge backyard of course! I know this family loves blue like their own 🥰”
“Marena was our dog savior! We had a last minute trip out of town for the 4th of July weekend and our regular boarder couldn't watch our dog. Thankfully, Marena was willing to help us out. She's so positive and caring, we had no worries about our dog who can be anxious around new people. I HIGHLY recommend Marena. She's not only an awesome dog caretaker, she's an awesome person. Thanks so much!”
“Megan and Jay are amazing! They’re so thoughtful, warmhearted, and truly wonderful people. They took such great care of Malie, and she felt right at home with them. Their boys were fantastic with her—playing and keeping her entertained. I loved receiving daily photo updates from Megan, and it was clear how happy Malie was during her stay. She came home happy, loved, and well cared for. 😊 I’m already looking forward to her next stay with them! Thank you Megan, Jay and the boys!”

“Ellen and her family were amazing. They showered our dog with love, attention, care, and provided us with frequent picture updates. They made us feel at ease as we knew that Archie was going to be feeling right at home for the duration of his stay. She is the best and I would recommend her to anyone. We will boarding Archie there again!!!!!”

“Oh my gosh!! I cannot say enough about Sean!! My dog has a lot of puppy still in him and can be a handful right now. Sean was patient and make sure my dog had lots of playtime. I received several photos and a video each day. I did not have any worries and was able to enjoy my vacation without wondering how my dog was doing. I have found my permanent boarding and I couldn’t be happier!”
“Beth is great with Ireland while I’m at work! She is easy to get ahold of and sends pictures and video updates of my boy Ireland. I know when I drop him off that he is happy and in great hands.”
“Rachel did a great job taking caring of my 85 lb doodle! He even was having some GI issues before I left him and she was able to take care of him and get him back to normal before I returned. He got along well with her dogs. So far, he’s stayed with her twice and seemed to love both stays and came back tired, which is always a good sign! She kept me updated throughout the stay and responded quickly to all messages. I would definitely recommend Rachel!”
“Lauren and her family were wonderful with our two dogs. She was very communicative and kept us updated while we were on vacation. We enjoyed all the photos with the updates. I especially appreciate the care she took when their arthritis was acting up. We felt comfortable with the dogs in her care and their additional medical needs (medication).”
“I always had great experience with Kyla. She is amazing and Flash comes home always happy. I have been working with Kyla for last few years. She responds on time and always communicates on time which is very good”

Very flexible and easy to communicate with, which we appreciate a lot! Would definitely choose them again. Thank you!”

“Angela is 100% the best choice we could have made when looking for someone to take care of our kitties. We have 4 cats, half of which are medicated, and their care can feel complicated at times. However, we didn’t worry once while we were away for a weekend knowing that Angela was in charge of our babies! She communicates clearly, genuinely cares for our animals, and is a real cat expert! We look forward to having someone we trust watch our cats in the future!!”
“Savannah was very attentive and conscientious about caring for our cats. She took extra time with them as they need medication and a special approach. Our cat Sedona loved her, and even let her carry her around. Normally she only lets me carry her! So she felt very comfortable and safe.”
“Alex D. was the perfect cat sitter for our 7 year old Ellie. With this being our first time to use Rover, we were not sure what to expect, but Alex definitely reassured us. She kept us informed through photos and correspondence, and it was wonderful to see that our shy Ellie totally trusted Alex and willingly greeted her each day and let her pet her. We highly recommend Alex and so appreciate her care and understanding of cats.”
“Megan took great care and gave all the attention to my cat Bucky Lee Meowgi while I was out of the states. The pictures reflect how happy he was to see her:)”
“Quinn is an amazing pet sitter, who absolutely goes above and beyond, and is incredibly thorough and thoughtful. We will without a doubt reach out again for cat care in the future. Thank you for taking such amazing care of our fur babies, and creating such a calm feeling knowing they were in such great care.”
“JoVonna was amazing, she took care of my two cats for a week and gave one their medication! She sent pictures every day, and I never doubted they were in great hands while I was on vacation. She is very kind and great with animals!! I highly recommend!”
“Ann, you are the kitty whisperer! Ann has cared for multiple generations of kitties in my household and she is attentive, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. I am grateful to have someone I can trust to care for my kitties while I travel.”
“Mariya was a real life saver and did an amazing job looking after my cat over a holiday weekend!! I had left some pretty specific instructions and she was very nice and communicative if she had any questions or concerns. It was a huge relief to have her checking in on him.”
“Lauren was a fantastic pet-sitter for my cat, Armond. She wrote a detailed update for every visit, and it was clear from the many pictures of them cuddling that Armond felt comfortable with Lauren. In fact, Armond usually doesn’t eat much while I’m gone, but this time he finished most of his meals! Overall, I felt like Armond was in excellent, loving hands with Lauren, and I’ll definitely be scheduling her for future trips!”
“Emily was communicative, considerate, and kind in handling my kitties and their needs for our booked visits over our 2 week holiday travel. She left helpful notes, great pictures, and wasn’t afraid to do some following up on concerns or issues. Absolutely will book again with her if I need some support during travel in the future!”
“Rachel was absolutely amazing. I was nervous with it being my first time using Rover but she was amazing even when my cat was a bit timid and shy. Very communicative & super kind. Rachel is great!!!”
“Iona was a lifesaver stepping up when our initial river got sick and couldn’t complete our booking. She communicated clearly and took great care of our cats and our house while we were out of town. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Keisha was amazing! Daily photos of our girls and even a stray that comes by often! The house was clean and the girls were happy, after 3 weeks of us being gone! Thank you Keisha for the piece of mind we needed!”
“Sadie-Jean is so sweet and took excellent care of our cats! She’s so thorough, ensuring she knows where everything is and schedules of all the animals while we were away! I would HIGHLY recommend booking with her :)”
“Allie was a spectacular sitter for my two cats. I will definitely be booking her for future vacations. She took such great care of my kitties and sent the best pics! She also played so well with my bengal who has a lot of energy to get out. Thanks Allie!”

“Sally was GREAT for daycare. I know my girls were taken care of, and they were beat when they got home. She was super active with them and definitely wore off the puppy energy! Definitely will be using her again”
“Shanelle was absolutely amazing! This was our first time taking our puppy to a sitter and it was great. She sent multiple photos, videos, and updates. She tired her out and took great care of our girl! Definitely recommend! :)”
“Ginny had a great time at Sean’s house! It was hot today so he kept her inside and she was good and tired when she got home. She even made me a painting which Sean sent a video of. We will definitely book again!”
“This was the first time for our Richmond! Lauren is super communicative and just getting pictures of Richmond put us at ease. We could tell he enjoyed himself. So awesome!”
“Will and Bibiana are the best. They have treated my puppy Nella like their own. They have helped Nella and I beyond what I could have hoped. Would recommend to anyone for the best care! Thank you guys so much for all the help!!”
“Karla is hands-down the best dog sitter I’ve ever experienced. Her love for dogs is immediately clear in everything she does. She has a spacious backyard that gives the dogs plenty of room to run and play, and her home is always clean, well-kept, and welcoming. What I appreciate most is how she allows dogs be themselves while ensuring a safe, well-managed environment. She pays close attention to group dynamics, making sure all the dogs interact well and play safely. I felt completely at ease leaving Bruno in her care, and that peace of mind is priceless. I would book with Karla again and again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”
“I've never left my dog with anyone I didn't know and trust so was a little nervous to leave him with a stranger but Ashley completely exceeded my expectations!!! She was so easy and flexible and my dog Griffin came home sleepy and well exercised. She has a fenced in yard so he was able to run around with the other dogs she was watching and he had the best time and I was able to have peace of mind knowing he was in good hands and having fun. I would recommend Ashley to anyone, and know I will be using her again :)”
About: My sweet beagle passed away this summer, and while I’m not ready to bring home another dog yet, I still deeply love pups. So here I am on Rover, hoping to scratch that dog-itch while caring for others. I’m new to the platform, but not new to loving and caring for dogs. I work from home, so your pup gets company and attention all day. I’m active and enjoy walking, live close to a big park, and have a yard right at my apartment for easy outdoor time. I’m a naturally clear, proactive communicator—you’ll get updates and photos without having to ask. I’m responsible, easygoing, and just want to spend my time around dogs. I’d love to take great care of yours! Since I work from home, dogs I care for get plenty of company throughout the day—walks, playtime, and check-ins built right into my normal routine. Mornings usually start with a walk (we’re close to a big park, so there’s plenty of room to roam), with more potty breaks and playtime spaced through the day depending on your pup’s needs. I’m easy to reach and happy to send updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing. I only care for one dog (or one family’s dogs) at a time. I’m not trying to build a pet boarding business, just looking for some side income and to get pup time, so your dog (or dogs, if you have a pair) gets my full attention. My apartment isn’t huge, but it’s clean, calm, and relaxing, and I’m on the first floor right by the door (easy in and out access). I don’t have kids, so it’s a quiet, low-chaos environment. I spent 11 years as an elementary school teacher, so caring for others (kids, families, etc.) is something I know how to do well. I’m also an aunt to 15 nieces and nephews, so I’m used to keeping little ones (two- and four-legged) safe, happy, and looked after. My own dog actually came to me when my brother needed to rehome him, so being a compassionate, reliable caretaker is just who I am.
“Our dogs had a wonderful time with Kevin! They enjoyed a walk and playtime in the backyard. They came home happy and tired. Kevin communicated well and even sent us pictures. It was great not worrying about our dogs while we were away. 💯 would recommend Kevin!”
“Fran’s ears go up followed by a cute little head tilt whenever I mention that it’s “time to go see Mrs. Laken” 😀 I can tell she really loves her days there and getting to hangout with Remy and Mouse, other pet friends and of course Bostynn ☺️ because she starts to get so excited as soon as we turn onto the street. I appreciate all of the cuddles and love my girl receives. Thank you from me and Nanny Fran.”
“I booked day care for my daughter's dog Gunner for the entire day on 4/4. I met with Kathryn and Teddy a few days before leaving him at her house and felt good about the upcoming visit afterwards. Kathryn sent me multiple photos during the day which I truly appreciated. It was great to be able to leave him somewhere I felt would allow him to be less anxious as Kathryn let me bring his pet bed and pillow which he uses regularly at home. He also has multiple small feedings through the day which she gave him. The fenced in yard she has is huge! I'm grateful to have a place I can take Gunner where I will feel I can take care of any business at hand with no worries about leaving him.”
“Alyssa was very responsive, sent lots of pictures/updates and Tucker is nice and tired after a full day of playing! Thank you for taking great care of our little guy!”
About: I’ve been a foster parent for Columbus Humane for 5 years. I’ve fostered everything from big dogs rescued from abuse cases to litters of kittens and their moms to pregnant guinea pigs! I also grew up in a house with 5 dogs and 2 cats—so nothing can surprise me. I have experience with breeds of all sizes, puppies, special medical needs, senior/end-of-life care, mixed animal homes (dogs AND cats, for example), and behavioral issues (other-dog aggressive, skittish, etc). I study from home all day and relax by going on walks with a science podcast. Your house, my house, whatever works—I’d love for your pup to join me! I’m currently studying from home full-time! So plenty of time for play, walks, potty breaks, or cuddles. I can do overnight boarding and doggy daycare at my house (I have a fenced backyard). I can offer lots of walks and attention as I study from home. I have a fenced-in backyard for playtime/potty and spare rooms for separation if needed. There is 1 set or stairs, but I can carry those who cannot do stairs if they are under 30lbs. I have experience with medical needs and first-aid. I’m happy to discuss your unique situation and see if we fit!
About: Energetic nurse, dedicated pet parent, and lifelong animal lover here to give your furry family members the royal treatment! I have a 1.5-year-old medium size rescue, whom I’ve trained from day one. I fully understand the wild puppy phase, the endless energy, and just how much patience (and love!) it takes to raise a well-behaved dog. Thanks to my super active lifestyle, your pets will always get plenty of fun exercise, zoomies, and playtime to keep their tails wagging. I have 100+ volunteer hours at the Franklin County Dog Shelter under my belt, working with pups of every size, personality, and energy level. Plus, as a nurse, I bring an extra layer of expert care to the table—I’m completely comfortable administering oral meds to cats and dogs, as well as handling injections. Whether your pet needs an adventurous brisk walk, a precise medical routine, or just heaps of love, I’m ready to make their time away from you absolute perfection! I am a nurse so on my days off I have basically the entire day wide open. I am a very active person and love going on walks. I am very flexible on time so whatever is best for your pet I can work the rest of my schedule around that! As a volunteer at the Franklin County Dog Shelter I have received training on how to handle, crate, walk, and feed dogs of all behavioral styles. I have gained over 100+ hours of volunteering at the shelter which has given me the confidence and experience to care for dogs of all type. As a nurse I am all about safety and will care for your pet in a way that makes both you and the pet feel safe and comfortable.
“Thomas took great care of my pup and he had a great time. Thomas sent plenty of updates and was very communicative and quick to respond. I could tell when I picked my dog up that he had not felt stressed or anxious, which is a huge relief.”
“A Wonderful Experience for Panda! Dan was absolutely amazing with my puppy, Panda! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt comfortable knowing he was in great hands. Dan took such great care of him, sent me pictures throughout the day, and even took Panda on runs so he could get plenty of exercise and have a great time. The sweetest part is that Panda really found a new best friend in Dan — or as I like to say, his new bear friend! 🐻❤️ You can tell Dan genuinely cares about the dogs and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, safe, and well cared for. Thank you, Dan, for treating Panda like one of your own. We truly appreciate you, and Panda can't wait to see his new friend again! 🐾❤️ Highly recommend Dan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their fur baby!”
“Nicole is an excellent caring host. She has a wonderful large grassy backyard with a big tree providing shade and has a pack of nice regulars that are all easygoing . Overall it was an excellent experience for Cookie.”
“We appreciate the communication and flexibility provided esp with a late scramble with another sitter this past couple of weeks. And, most importantly, we were confident our big fur-baby was happy and taken care of with walks and more!”

“Dylan always does an amazing job I can tell he really cares about my pups and is very flexible with quick responses. Had quite a few people I have been to and no one has cared as much as well as taken great care of my dogs when I’m away. Full trust and reassurance in his services.”
“Emily has became our regular dog walker. She’s amazing, so friendly and kind! She’s very trustworthy, it almost feels like you have a family member looking after your pet that way she dedicates herself to taking care of our animals.”
“Thea was great with our two pups! She communicated really well and was super prompt. Would totally recommend her / rebook her again for future walks.”
“Taylor has been very helpful. She has come and walked our very energetic dog on a weekly basis and I have had 0 difficulties getting ahold of her or getting feedback about how everything went. She is very sweet and a great choice for your pet!”
About: I’m currently a graduate student at The Ohio State University, and alongside my academic work, caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’ve owned and cared for a variety of dogs of many different breeds and sizes. Growing up and into adulthood, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, and playtime. I understand how important it is to maintain your dog’s routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. As both a responsible graduate student and a lifelong dog owner, I bring reliability, organization, and genuine care to every visit. My goal is too make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for, and to give you peace of mind while you’re away! As a graduate student at The Ohio State University, I’m only in class for a portion of the day Monday through Thursday, which gives me consistent flexibility throughout the week. I’ve included my class schedule to be fully transparent about my availability: -Mondays 8am-4pm -Tuesdays 8am-12pm -Thursdays 8am-4pm My Wednesdays will be open until October, and Fri/Sat/Sun are generally open! Outside of class, my schedule is structured but open, allowing me to plan pet care visits, walks, and check-ins reliably. When caring for pets in other homes, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and consistent as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any specific preferences your pet may have. My goal is to make them feel safe and comfortable in their own environment.
“It has been wonderful working with JoVonna. Communication is especially great. I’m grateful she has been added to our puppy raising team! It takes a village! 😅”
“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.”
About: I had my very first cat when I was in kindergarten, and I loved growing up with him. I now have two of my very own! I’m trying (and failing) to convince my partner we need a third!! I have such a strong love for cats and animals in general that I’ll be sure to love your critters as my own! Before our family got dogs of our own, I’d often pet sit for friends, sometimes up to four dogs at once! Family members and friends have had many dogs over the years ranging from big to small, puppy to senior, and so on. I feel confident in caring for your fur baby! I also feel comfortable administering oral and topical medication to cats and dogs. I currently work full time, so I would be able to do drop ins for your pets before or after work or on the weekends. I do work remote, so I have the capability to do housesitting during daytime and evening hours. ** I am not offering overnight housesitting at this time ** I intend to follow all safety measures preferred in your home such as taking the dog out on a leash, using the crate when necessary, etc.
“Samantha is great! She took a last minute booking to walk our dog. My husband was out of town and I work long hours, and it was so nice to come home to a content and exercised dog. Her taking care of our dog was great peace of mind knowing she wouldn’t be home alone all day! ☺️”
“Amber always does a really good job taking care of our girls!! (Harley-dog & Scarlet-cat) Harley had a little potty accident and Amber did an amazing cleaning it up and switching out her bed with another one in her crate. She let us know immediately about what was going on and made sure Harley was safe!!”
“Victoria has been amazing! We have booked with her several times and my dog genuinely loves her which is saying a lot since he is very particular when it comes to people!”
“Autumn did a great job caring for my two dogs. One of my dogs is elderly and has several medical problems. Autumn was very capable and comfortable with this. I will definitely trust her again in the future with my fur-babies.”
“This is our second time booking with Emma, and we'll happily book with her again in the future. We had good communication, the walks were for the agreed upon amount of time, and we always came home to a happy dog!”

“Our dog Apollo has been staying with Liz Marie and her family every time we’ve traveled for the past year or so, including a recent 3 week trip.

We especially appreciate Liz Marie’s responsiveness and flexibility with pick up and drop off times and her dedication with the various medications and creams Apollo has needed. Thank you again for welcoming Apollo into your family!”
