“Tamisha was really great at updating me with pictures and on Darla’s status. She even let me know that Darla got a small cut on her head, which is totally expected because Darla bulls her way through things, but comforting to know tamisha was upfront with everything. I really appreciated her looking after Darla and would definitely look to her for help with Darla again in the future.”

“My boarding experience with Lauren has been great. I felt really comfortable knowing she was well cared for during my extended trip away. Lauren is easy to communicate with and very responsive. We also do daycare with her and my Yorkie enjoys going back, which says a lot since she’s usually pretty anxious in environments outside of the house. Lauren is very kind and treats my little one like her own, and I really appreciate the care she gives her. We’ve had a great experience overall.”

“Megan and family were incredible with my dog Indy! I felt so relieved that she could stay with such an awesome family and be taken care of while we were away. Indy is a senior dog so certainly more needy across the board but she was in great hands. Would rebook with them in a heartbeat!”

“Stockton had such a great time with Maolin, and he has major separation issues. She made him feel comfortable instantly and took him on a lot of awesome adventures! Would definitely book again!”

“Laken is absolutely wonderful. Biscuit had the best time with her and her family she took amazing care of my lil guy while I was out of town. Any pup who spends time with Laken is incredibly lucky!!”

“Tharatip & Daniel did a fantastic job sitting for Chewie! They sent several pics and videos over the weekend while they watched her. They were treating her like part of their family which is what we were looking for. Thanks again!”

“Lauren was great! Libby felt right at home and settled in really quickly. The huge fenced in back yard was definitely a plus and libby loved hanging out back there. We really appreciated how communicative and responsive Lauren was and we will definitely be using her again in the future!”


“Dawn and Spike are wonderful! Dawn's place is super cute and you can tell that she really loves dogs. I'll definitely use her again the next time I'm in Columbus!”

“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. He enjoys his stays with Joe and Duke so it is like he is getting a vacation too!”

“We had a great experience with Ellen this past long weekend. She took wonderful care of our goldendoodle and made the whole process easy and stress free. Communication was excellent throughout — we received regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She truly went above and beyond for us. Highly recommend!”

“Amy was absolutely wonderful and accommodating. She allowed extra time for pickup when our flight got in late. She kept us updated and sent pictures of Blue throughout his stay. I will definitely book with Amy again!”

“Vito can be anxious in new situations, but he liked Sally and her backyard as soon as we met her! Sally is very kind, understanding, and thoughtful. She sent many beautiful pictures of Vito, which we enjoyed. While we were away, it seemed like when I thought, "I wonder how Vito is doing..." I would have a message, pictures, or a video from Sally. We felt great leaving our baby in such great hands, and we will definitely book with Sally again!”

“Thank you for taking such amazing care of Olive! The pictures of her were so beautiful and it’s clear she felt right at home with you. She’s already looking forward to her next slumber party!”

“Alexandria did an excellent job with my dog, Pluto! She was very attentive and made me feel very comfortable keeping him! I absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter!”

“Rayann was great watching our dog for a week. This is the first time someone other than family has watched our dog and I was nervous about using a service like this and having to choose someone I didn’t know. Rayann was so warm and helpful from the beginning. She was really helpful and flexible on drop off and pickup times due to my schedule and flight changes. She sent multiple updates with pictures throughout the week letting me know how my dog was doing. My dog seemed very happy and well taken care of. I would recommend Rayann and will book with her in the future.”

“Deanna is the absolute best!!! She has been with my baby Cleo since she was a little baby. Deanna is so on top of communication, photo sending, training, feeding my girl amazing food…all the above, Deanna was such a pleasure. I was with Deanna for about 7 months and I have never been more grateful. Thank you for everything, we appreciate you so so much!”

“Emily was great! I was so afraid to leave my senior dog, who is going blind, in a new environment. He did great! Emily kept me updated and sent me pictures. My dog was in great hands! Can't say enough great things about the experience. Emily was the best!”

“Jamie is great, and we will definitely be using her again in the future! It is nerve racking leaving your furbabies but she took great care of them and sent detailed updates and pictures.”
“I’ve booked Jovonna a couple times now and she’s does an amazing job every time. My cats love her and are happy babies when I get home. Jovonna sends lots of updates and pictures while siting. Making it easy to enjoy my time away from my babies while knowing they’re being taken care of.”

“Kirsten did a fantastic job talking care of our 4 cats! By day 2 she was friends with all of them! She seems to have gotten our old lady to actually eat and not lose weight while we were gone. Everything looked great when we got home & she was communicative and prompt. Would totally book again with her!”


“Angela is amazing! We had only the best experience with her taking care of our cat. She is incredibly attentive, prompt and communicative. We look forward to have her back!”


“Rachel was wonderful as always! Our kitties absolutely adore her, and it’s such a relief knowing they’re in such caring hands while we’re away. She is kind, dependable, and always goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful to have someone we trust so completely. Highly recommend!”


“This was my first time using a pet sitting service and Ioana made me feel at ease with the whole process. She has a sweet demeanor and I trusted her to take great care of my girls. Thank you, I will definitely use Ioana in the future!”

“Such an amazing person and outstanding job taking care of my cat. My cat is senior with a rare medical condition and Heather did such an amazing job caring for her and making sure she got not only her meds but amazing love and pets.”


“Deanna did a great job taking care of our cat, Aries. She sent us videos, pictures and a daily report like clockwork. Our cat liked her and was perfectly content until we got home. I would recommend and will definitely use her services in the future.”


“Booked Taylor for about a week and everything was just as I left it. The cats were healthy and happy when I got back. Taylor was very communicative and I would book her again”


“Melanie was fantastic! She took great care of the kitties, sent us tons of photos, videos, and updates, and she went above and beyond with our house (she stripped the bed, washed the sheets and towels, and left the house looking spotless). I will definitely book with Melanie again, and I would highly recommend her to anyone who's looking for a pet/house sitter for their next trip!”

“Our girls were in great shape when we returned home from our outing! I love getting updates and pictures which we received from Patricia. We would highly recommend Patricia!”


“Highly recommend Autumn! She truly cares deeply about animals. I had peace of mind knowing my cat was in such great hands— she even brought him a Christmas treat and toy which he loved!”

“Merri was so fantastic to coordinate and communicate with, and I'm sure Yuka loved her visits because he got to go outside! Merri is trustworthy and I appreciate the effort into doing a meet and greet to familiarize herself with Yuka.”

“Abbey has done a great job checking in on both of our dogs for two weeks now. She is super dependable about showing up on time, documenting the visit, and engaging well with both Theo and Bruce. She’s even gone the extra mile and cleaned up after Bruce had a couple of pee accidents inside the house - definitely not something we expect from any dog-sitter but very kind and thoughtful nonetheless. We highly recommend her pet care services!”


About: I’m a proud cat mom to four cats, so I know firsthand that every feline has their own personality, boundaries, and unique way of showing love. 🐾 One of my favorite things about cats is earning their trust. Cats don’t always warm up immediately—and I actually love that about them. I’m patient, observant, and happy to let your cat set the pace. Once they decide you’re okay, it feels like a pretty special honor. ❤️ I’ve cared for cats with different needs, including administering medication and providing dedicated care for a cat who was FeLV-positive (feline leukemia) until the end of his life. Whether your cat wants cuddles, playtime, conversation, or simply someone to quietly hang out with them, I’m happy to meet them where they are. And yes… I absolutely talk to my cats like they’re my best friends. 😹 So if your cat has a lot to say, I’m ready to listen! My goal is simple: keep your cat comfortable, cared for, and feeling safe in their own home while you’re away.

“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.”

“Denny loved his visit with Sally today! She does a great job sending updates and filling us in. He even recognizes her house and wants to jump out of the car.”

“Very last minute had availability for us and overall great experience! Great and fast communication and updates with pictures. Will definitely book again ❤️”

“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!”

“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!”

“Jodi was great, very pleasant t, her husband as well. She treated my cuddle bug Jax like he was part of her family. Jax is very comfortable with her and always happy to see her and runs right to her. That feels so great to see as a pet parent. I was able to reach out to her whenever i needed to know how my baby pooch was doing and she sent videos. Jax just is very happy when he is there. I would definitely recommend Jodi and would definitely have her care for my baby again.”


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.
“Shanelle was so sweet, responsive, and accommodating on such short notice! She sent regular updates on Isla including photos and videos, which helped me feel comfortable. She did such a great job with my fur baby and I know Isla had an amazing time. Will definitely be booking again!”

“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!!”

About: From my experience growing up on a farm to caring for two dogs and a cat as a young professional, I've developed quite a bit of pet care knowledge and skills. I've cared for puppies and kittens and adult dogs and cat through good times and hard times. Over the years, I've learned a lot and I'm happy to use that experience to care for your's as well. My wife and I both work from home during the week so we have plenty of time for pet care. When our dog Frank was around, we would often go on walks with him and my daughter and visit local parks. Unfortunately, we don't have time to care for puppies or kittens at this stage in life but adult dogs and cats are welcome. We live in downtown Columbus in a single family home with a large fenced yard. We're surrounded by lots of sidewalks and live within walking distance to several parks. In our home, we have a large soft crate for dogs and small crates for cats, if needed. We expect all pets to be potty/house trained and dogs to sleep in a crate overnight. We don't allow dogs on furniture or in beds, but they're welcome throughout the home. Our cat, Cleo, roams the house but will often stay on the 2nd floor when new pet friends stay over. She has been great with new cats and dogs, often warming up to them after a day or two. We also have a 2.5 year old daughter who is home most of the week. She's great with cats and dogs and we expect any pets that stay with us to be comfortable with children.

“I am very pleased with Ariel’s care and attention to Jack and will be using her again. She and her family are Wonderful and Thor and True accept Jack like he is one of them, which he is!”


“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!”

“Latisha is an incredible sitter and went above and beyond in a way that I can’t even begin to mention in a tiny review on this website. I am forever grateful to have found her to watch my baby boy.”

“JoVonna has been caring for my pup for several months now and she ALWAYS exceeds expectations. She is so loved by my dog, and by me! For her caring nature, attentiveness, professionalism, etc. JoVonna is just amazing.”

“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.”

“Rachel came and met me at my house for a walkthrough. She is very sweet with my dog. She was a trooper even when my pup had an accident. Thank you Rachel and Rover for peace of mind.”

“We love Jamie! Jamie has been there since the beginning when our little girl was 4 months old. Winnie loves Jamie, and we really enjoy our daily update with all of the pictures. It is so obvious that Jamie truly loves our puppy, and we have so enjoyed having her be a part of our little village. We appreciate Jamie so much, and Winnie loves her too! Thank you for all that you do! We could not do this without you! ?”

“Darren was wonderful with Teddy. He took him on a nice, vigorous walk and sent pictures along the way. I’d recommend Darren to anyone. You can tell he’s very genuine in his connection w/ his clients, and Teddy loved him immediately when he walked in the door. Teddy even gave him a kiss on the nose which is reserved for very special people!”

“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!”

“Autumn was great with my elderly and shy doggy! She made her so comfortable to the point that’s her new friend only after a couple visits (Lucy is super shy). Autumn was great with communication and just all around a nice and helpful person. Thank you so much!”

“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!”

About: I'm an animal lover who's grown up with multiple family members who owned dogs and have had my own German Shepherd for years since puppyhood! Well versed in caring for, walking, and enjoying company of pets. I'm a college student currently working part-time and studying for the LSAT, so I have a fairly flexible schedule that can work well for you! My approach would be to try to provide structure to the animals while following the rules and preferences of the clients. I've found my own dog is the happiest when provided efficient stimulation, so I would want to provide that for any pets I was sitting.
“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.”

“Rachel did an amazing job! She went above and beyond and our dog absolutely loved her! We absolutely adored all the great pictures she took of their walk together and she was very thoughtful!”


About: House with a large fenced in back yard. 2 dogs and a cat in the house that are good with other dogs. Have experience with giving any sort of meds your dog may require. I currently work full time in office but am home by 3 every day. Dogs can be taken on multiple walks around the neighborhood each day or they can enjoy the fenced in backyard. I have a large fenced in yard and also live in a neighborhood that is great for going on long walks. Dogs are allowed on bed and furniture.
About: I’ve had all kinds of animals growing up, so i’m very use to the care and attention big and small animals will need. I’ve independently taken care of small and big dogs over live periods of time. I am a previous cat foster. Overall I love animals and miss being able to have my own (due to new rooming situations). I am active, patient, and am always safe with animals. I am currently working part time, and in school :) My mornings until around 3 pm are full. But i would love to make afternoon visits to play and hangout with all furry friends. I am good at taking directions and paying attention to the temperament of animals. I would never do something unnatural/ feed something not instructed by the owner. I have worked some in dog training and understand all animals have different training levels which I am happy to learn more about :). I will always be respectful of an owners instructions.

About: I have always had dogs at home, I dogsit for a couple families on the regular. Dogs come up to me on the street, my family and friends call me a dog whisperer. I love dogs and I am in college away from mine at home I am a student, and i do play basketball but i am free in the early mornings, afternoons, early then late evenings. With that said I would love to have time to spend with dogs and just get away from my school I can not do my home, but I am a very responsible person and I treat others home as if it were mine! I am reliable and can promise a trust worthy helper.
“If you want total piece of mind that your furry ones will be safe and well taken care of, Sahara is your answer. Not only is she loving and caring, she documents everything very well so you are informed. We will call on Sahara for all of our future pet sitting needs. 🤎”

About: I have been a dog lover my entire life. I am known as the dog whisperer. It' is rumored amongst pets of the existence of a dog petter who has the most loving energy. Many dogs only believe it to be legend. It is a real live person. It is me the dog whisperer. I have experience walking, administering meds through mouth and providing exercise and treats. There is no pet to big or small. I love them all. I have a rather flexible schedule due to working online. Only times I am not available when traveling for business as host for a travel group. I care for pets to the instructions of the pet owner. I know most dogs that are properly cared for require a lot of attention and prefer to be in the company of someone. I enjoy the company and love to give quality time to dogs. Such as playing fetch tug a war or long walks.

“I can’t say enough for the care that Emily gave to our Ezra. This was his first time away from home and I was a bit worried. But Emily put my mind at ease right away. I had complete confidence that he was safe and happy and even having his very own vacation. Home routine must seem a bit boring to him now! I guess we’ll just have to take another vacation so he can come back for more. We would very highly recommend Emily and will certainly choose her again. Love all of the updates and pix she took time to do! 🐶❤️Five stars ⭐️ all the way❣️”

“Look no further - Nate and Aylissia are the sitters you want for your pet! They are phenomenal. They made me feel completely at ease from the moment I met for a meet-and-greet. Their pups were a great addition to the stay, making the experience feel like a true vacation for my dog while I was away. Nate and Aylissia sent photos, videos and updates daily from t not only inside their very clean home but also from their beautiful, lush green backyard. Overall, I felt like my dog was safe and loved! I would not hesitate using them for as you next sitter!”

She took him for walks and even a car ride for a pup cup. Joy is a pleasure to know and we will definitely use her services again.”


“Pam and Tallaferro did an amazing job with Shade. I received daily updates and pictures which let me know she was safe. I’d recommend them to any dog owner who’s looking for a safe and fun home for a few days while away for work or a vacation.”
