“Lauren looked after my baby while I was out of town, I was nervous because it was his first time spending the night away from me, but it’s safe to say that he had the time of his life! He was able to socialize with other dogs which was definitely a plus for me, she was also super sweet and professional. So happy to have found her ❤️”

“My dog Bella has been cared for by Andrew twice now, and both times she’s been absolutely happy and well taken care of. The second time we went my dog got excited as we pulled up to the house, remembering what a good time she had during her last visit. Highly recommended!”

“I had the best experience, leaving my dog with Cindy. She was amazing at caring for him and sending me photos and videos along the way. She was also super understanding when I shared that my flight has been canceled and that I needed to book an extra day. She continue to care for my dog, an updated me more along the way as well. Super appreciative of her and can’t wait till the next booking.”

“We had a great experience booking with Michelle & Nicholas! We did a meet and greet to see how our dog Flynn and their dog Waffles would get along, and they became good buddies! Michelle & Nicholas sent daily updates with lots of photos. They have a fenced in backyard that our Flynny loved exploring. We would highly recommend & plan to book again!”

“For the first time ever, I had to leave my dog son for more than a day and I was definitely very uncertain on this whole you know . I couldn’t have asked for a better family to watch over my best friend and care for him like they did. Had me at ease while I was gone the whole time if you’re looking for the same reassurance, I was looking no further!”

“This was our first time using Rover. We selected Ellen because she had many positive reviews as well as multiple returning clients. We made the right choice selecting Ellen to watch our fur babies. She is extremely accommodating and understanding. Our 2 pups have a number of quirks, but Ellen worked with them and gave them a home away from home. She sent multiple pictures a day and some videos, along with an update of the daily activities. We will absolutely be using Ellen if we go away and need a sitter. I cannot speak any higher of Ellen. Highly recommend! Thanks again Ellen for putting our minds at ease.”

“Amber was very enthusiastic and accommodating even before we dropped off our little girl. This was our first experience with Rover and she and her family made it a great one! She showed us around her home, where our pup would be playing outside, and made us feel right at ease! She sent lots of pics and video throughout the weekend so we knew Shasta was having a great time! Would definitely recommend her as a sitter. We’ll use her in the future for sure!!”

“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.”

“Kaya had an amazing stay with Bethany. She got to run around outside to her hearts content. Bethany followed the medicine schedule that was needed, and also sent multiple pictures and updates throughout the day. Will def use her services again!”

“Rayann watched my puppy for almost a week. She sent daily updates and pictures on how he was doing. She was a great communicator and took great care of Mav. He had a blast playing with her and her family. I will definitely use her whenever I go out of town next.”

“Christina and her husband took great care of Scarlet this weekend. This was a last-minute request when somebody else i booked canceled with no explanation. She even had Scarlet make me a cute Mother’s Day gift.”


“My pup loves going to stay with Dawn! She’s so sweet and takes the best care of him! She sends photos of him throughout his stay, too, so I know he’s having a good time! Would always recommend! (:”

“Yi was a big help taking a last minute booking. She was very kind and accommodating to our senior dog. She was an excellent communicator and sent several pics.”

“Karl kept us updated and sent pictures daily. He clearly enjoys spending time with dogs. Because of this, we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation. We didn’t have to worry about whether or not our dog was being well cared for. He was flexible with drop off and pick up times.”

“Maolin was the best and took such good care of Avery! She sent daily updates of their adventures on walks and to the dog park. With her we knew our pup was safe and happy over a long trip out of town!”

“Amy and her family are wonderful!! She is kind and caring and my Kona felt like part of their family. I could not leave a higher recommendation. Thank you, Amy. It was sooo appreciated. Kona loved it!!”

“Katie and her fur baby Ruth were absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for watching our Luna. During the whole stay Katie sent many many updates of pictures and videos which helped put our mind at such ease! Katie having a house with a fenced in yard was a key part that we were looking for and Ruth (her goldendoodle) was such an awesome bonus! Thank you Katie so much and we will truly rebook again if we are in need in the Columbus area!!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and can't imagine life without them. Growing up with dogs taught me how to care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Today, I'm a proud Golden Retriever owner myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member. Over the years, I've regularly helped friends and family care for their dogs, whether that meant walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or simply providing companionship while they were away. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog's unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide dependable care. As a nurse, my schedule varies throughout the week. On the days I'm working, I'm generally unavailable for pet care. However, I have approximately four days each week completely free, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and pet sitting on my days off, and I'm especially happy to care for dogs during long weekends when my schedule allows. Because I know my work schedule in advance, I can communicate availability clearly and ensure your pet receives reliable, attentive care. When I'm with your pet, they will have my full attention, and I'll do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and happy while you're away. Pets staying in my home will be treated like part of the family. While I do not have a fenced backyard, I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise and enrichment through multiple daily walks, outdoor time on leash, play sessions, and lots of attention throughout the day. My Golden Retriever, Olive, will also be present during stays. She is friendly, social, and loves having canine companions to play with. Of course, I always prioritize safety and will ensure that all introductions are done thoughtfully and that every dog is comfortable. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply relaxing in a home environment, I'll work to maintain their routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and fun home away from home.
“Jessica was an absolute delight. My dog Lucy loved her as soon as she met her. Jessica kept me updated throughout the weekend, sending me pictures and letting me know how much fun they were having. We were in town for a wedding. Knowing Lucy was being so well cared for allowed my husband and I to enjoy our family and the festivities. Thanks Jessica!”

“Olivia was very responsive and professional. We were looking for a late booking for a spontaneous getaway and she was amazing! She took wonderful care of our headstrong Chessie named Guapo. She kept us updated with photos and their activities. We would trust her anytime we need a sitter again! Thank you Olivia!”

“Leann was amazing as always. This was my third time booking with her and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again. She's dependable and communicative, and knowing she's there to check on our cats made me feel that much more comfortable being away from them. 100% recommend her!”


“Anna stopped by out home twice a day to give our cat her insulin shots. We were worried because our cat is a bit skittish, but Anna was great! Our cat came out for her for pets and love and got her shots each day without issue. Highly recommend Anna!”


“Vanessa was great with our kitty, Charlie! This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous but Vanessa helped ease my mind and was very communicative. Loved getting notifications and pictures! We'll definitely book with her again.”


“I recently booked Abby for the first time and will absolutely be using her again! I needed a sitter pretty last minute, and she was super responsive and came over that same night to meet my cat. She was very communicative during her visits and took excellent care of my baby! Abby is the best!!”


“Cindy was great! First time using this app. Even came back for an emergency. Updated me with info and pictures and followed every instruction i gave her.”

“My cat looked so happy in the photos and im very thankful to have had Sadie-Jean be the one to check-in on him and not only give him attention but play with him and treat him like the king he thinks he is. Thank you so much!!”


“Rachel has watched my active, social cat twice now. I think both bookings were rather last minute and I appreciate how flexible and communicative she is. But more importantly, my cat loves her! He is more relaxed and less anxious when I return than when I've have other sitters watch him in the past. Highly reccommend!”


“Lyndsey took fantastic care of our cat and home while we were away. She provided frequent updates and pics which we loved. She’s responsible and we’ll definitely be working with her again in the future”


“Emma was amazing with my cat, Toast! She was communicative, reliable, and even stayed extra some nights to give him more cuddles and attention. I felt completely comfortable trusting her with my home and pet, and I'd definitely recommend her to others.”


“Taylor clearly intuitively understands cats/animals and is very diligent about providing daily feedback. I have been able to truly relax on my vacation, with confidence Clem is being well cared for. Thank you, Taylor! 🫶🏻❤️”


“Caitlyn did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away. She was very kind with her, and left detailed updates and pictures each day. I would definitely book her again!”


“An unfortunate passing, Elizabeth was available with VERY short notice and took on the challenge of 11 felines! A couple of our fur babies took to loving Lizzy, and was saddened when she was finished. A VERY understanding pet care professional. Thank you Lizzy!”


About: 've been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for cats through the years. Growing up, I regularly helped my neighbors care for their cats while they were away, which gave me experience with different personalities, routines, and care needs. I understand that every cat is unique—some love attention and playtime, while others prefer a calm presence and respect for their space. My goal is always to help your cat feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you're away. As someone who values reliability and attention to detail, I'll follow your cat's routine closely and provide updates so you can have peace of mind while you're gone.

“Rachel is fantastic and very flexible for my needs. Will definitely use her again in the future. Highly recommended. No problems at all efficient courteous, and an invaluable help with my crazy work schedule.”


“Shelly took wonderful care of my cat Milo when I was out of town for a wedding! She was super communicative with me and patient while he warmed up to her and I could tell Milo was well taken care of upon my return. I will definitely book with her again!”


“Jerrica did a great job with our cats. I was nervous about using someone I didn’t know, but she put me at ease immediately. She stopped twice a day, brushed, fed and scooped-!and sent pictures each visit. Definitely will use her services again: highly recommend.”

“We were initially apprehensive about hiring someone to take care of our beloved Shih Tzu-Yorkshire terrier mix, Nikko. However, Cindy’s exceptional service quickly put our worries to rest. She went above and beyond in every aspect of her care. Nikko had a fantastic time at Cindy’s daycare and even made some new doggie friends. Cindy kept us updated throughout the entire process, sending pictures and providing detailed updates on Nikko’s activities and well-being. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Nikko and his happiness. We are incredibly grateful to have found Cindy and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring doggy daycare provider. Thank you, Cindy, for taking such wonderful care of Nikko!”

“We were in from out of town and had to make an emergency last minute booking. Christina was happy to have our girls! She was super warm and welcoming and gave regular updates. When we picked up our pups, she surprised us with a cute painting she did with their paws! 100% would recommend her to anyone in the area.”

“This was my second time taking back my pup after a great first experience. Same exact level of care as the first time. Would definitely recommend to anybody in the Columbus area. Luna is gonna miss you!!”


About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years. I love animals and treat them with respect and care. I genuinely love being around animals. I’m currently working part time and taking college classes mostly online. During most days I have time to walk dogs and care for your pets. I have my own 1 bedroom apartment with a dog park on site and plenty of grassy areas to go for walks. I do not have any pets of my own in my apartment.
“Thank you so much, Katie!!! You were our first puppy care experience and I’m so grateful for how wonderful you are. Bluebell had so much fun and was so well cared for.”

“Annie was wonderful with our 5 month old puppy! Mochi can be a handful, but she did a great job making sure he had the best time and gave lots of updates. Her pup was a great playmate for Mochi ☺️ We’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“I was so pleased with the services provided by Amber while watching my little one. She interacted with her wonderfully and gave her lots and lots of attention. Amber kept me updated with pictures and messages and I feel truly comfortable with leaving my dog with her, and I look forward to the next opportunity.”

About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life. I have lots of experience with cats, dogs, and even lizards! I raised my own dog from puppyhood and have personally crate trained her, potty trained her, and taught her 15+ tricks/commands. I have experience caring for cats who require daily fluid administrations, pills, and other supplements I work from home Mondays and Fridays, but I am usually unavailable Tues-Thurs due to a busy work schedule. I usually take breaks during my work from home days to walk/play with the animals. For dogs - Dogs will be walked 3-4x daily or more depending on their individual needs. I do not have extra crates. Amy animals looking to stay in my home will need to be good with both cats and dogs. I keep plenty of treats on me during walks, in addition to a clicker for training and a portable water bowl. For cats - My home is equipped with a pet water fountain, extra bowls, and lots of toys. The litterboxes are cleaned daily and deep cleaned once a month. My cat is fed on a schedule (once in the morning and once in the evening) but I am happy to accomodate any feeding preferences for my clients pets should they choose to stay with me.
“Mary was fantastic and took such good care of Archie! He played HARD with another puppy there and slept like a baby when he got home. He had so much fun! Thank you for watching him!”

“Suzanne is excellent. She took care of our puppy like her own. He was always happy to go and when I picked up. Suzanne made sure all care instructions were followed to the dot. I am glad we could find her. Will always contact her when we need to.”
“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! :)”

“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.”


“Sox and I LOVE Dawn and Spike. Dawn takes the best care of our boy and we never have to worry, which is such a blessing. Spike is so much fun and Sox always comes home zonked. There really is no one better!”
About: Hi neighbors! I’m a calm, reliable, and patient pet caregiver based right across from Westgate Park. I work from home, which means your pet gets consistent attention, steady routines, and a peaceful environment—not just a quick visit and a rush out the door. I have cared for dogs, cats, and small animals for over 40 years, and I’m especially comfortable with senior pets and those needing extra support, including insulin injections and attentive monitoring. Whether your pet is full of energy or prefers a slower pace, I adapt to their rhythm. My home includes a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor time, and I’m steps away from the park for enriching walks. For drop-ins and walks, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine consistent, stress-free, and genuinely enjoyable. At home, I’m kept company by my senior dog Elle J, who has taught me a lot about gentle companionship, and an “adopted” outdoor cat, Alistair, who stops by like he owns the place (which, honestly, he might). If you’re looking for someone dependable, attentive, and genuinely invested in your pet’s wellbeing, I’d love to help. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, making it easy to accommodate walks, feedings, and check-ins throughout the day. Living directly across from Westgate Park also allows me to provide consistent, enriching walks without travel delays. Because I’m already home throughout the day, I can offer reliable timing, attentive care, and flexibility for pets who need more frequent visits or a steady routine. Safety and trust are at the core of how I care for every pet. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s established routine closely to minimize stress, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any medical needs such as medications or insulin injections. I take time to understand each pet’s behavior, triggers, and comfort level to ensure a calm and positive experience. In my home, pets benefit from a quiet, low-stress environment with a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor time and close supervision throughout the day. I maintain a clean, secure space and introduce new environments gradually to ensure pets feel comfortable and safe. Whether in your home or mine, my approach is always patient, attentive, and focused on your pet’s wellbeing.

“Vanessa has been our dog walker for almost a year. She is professional, communicate & make sure your energetic pup gets the exercise he needs! I very highly recommend Vanessa for any of your pets needs!”

About: I grew up with dogs and currently have two cats that I treat like my own children! I’ve done petsitting for years for both cats and dogs of various breeds. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets, having me feed them, walk their dogs, spend time with their cats, and keep litter boxes tidy. I work full-time and have a hybrid schedule, so I have flexibility on days I work from home and weekends. I can spend the day at your home or drop in as needed, but due to having pets of my own, can’t always do overnight stays. Since I live in a small apartment with two cats, I can’t bring your pet to stay with me. Instead, I’m more than happy to drop in periodically or spend the day at your home, making sure your pets are happy, fed, and get some social interaction!
“Jennifer was really assuring through the process of using rover for the first time! She provided a lot of pictures and details and did things I forgot to ask for, like refilling my dog’s water bowl. I felt really comfortable with her walking my dog and am happy knowing he got some extra care and attention!”

“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!”


“Payton is awesome and my two little pups loved her. She did exactly what they needed (their small and sometimes need a shorter walk and just a little playtime instead). Can’t wait to have her walk them again!”


About: I have had pets my whole life, including dogs and horses. I currently own two dogs and one horse. I have trained 3 dogs, and I have also spent tons of time around cats even though I have never owned one. I have a passion for animals and making sure they are properly loved and cared for to ensure they get as much happiness in their lives as they give us, and I would love to give your pet that little extra bit of care that you are searching for! I am home from college for the summer, so I have a very free schedule to ensure your pet gets all the care they need! I am available pretty much 24/7. I do everything in my power to ensure pets are happy and comfortable, so whatever that may look like for your pet I am happy to accommodate, whether this means they need walked, played with, fed, crated, attention, medications, etc.. I have tons of experience with different pet needs and am happy to meet accommodations that make your pet happiest!
“Isabel was very flexible. My address was in rover incorrectly and she made the effort to still complete the walk with my dog. Not to mention she also grabbed our package from our old apartment. She went above and beyond.”

About: (I go by my nickname Rew) I currently have no pets of my own! Very flexible schedule. I am a detail-oriented carer and have a lot of energy for your special ones. Available for services morning, afternoon, evening, overnight. Open for holiday bookings. I will keep this section updated as things go on (will do my very best!) I care for pets in your home and offer dog walks. I do not board at my own residence. Let me know your particular instructions and I will keep good notes!
About: 👋Hi I’m Annie! I have grown up with dogs and currently have a 3.5 year old black lab named Tank. 🐕🦺 Tank is a good boy and plays extremely well with other dogs but also is happy sleeping or chewing a bone on his own. This comes as no surprise as he is actually a failed guide dog - failed after getting startled by loud noises! In my wider family, we have a range of dog sizes, personalities, rescues, and breeder dogs…meaning I have a lot of experience with lots of different doggie backgrounds. I am confident in my ability to quickly learn how your dog(s) interact with other dogs, animals, and humans. All dogs have different needs. I will accommodate your personal and pup’s lifestyle preferences, whether that is more active or a more relaxed day. I also strive to keep up with any ongoing training so your pup doesn’t fall behind while you are away 🏠 I work from home full time, so this allows me the flexibility to build my schedule around the attention and enrichment your dog may need. What a typical daycare looks like: - Sniff and playtime with Tank 🤝🐽 - Weather dependent - at least 1 walk, which your dog is welcome to join or not 🐾☀️🚶🏻♀️ - A choice of ropes, kongs, squeaky, plush, and ball toys to play with 🎾🪢🧸 - A variety of treats (as allowed) including probiotics, dental chews, nubz, milk bone, and frozen peanut butter treats / kongs 🦴🥜 - For relaxed pups, they are welcome to chill out on the furniture or dog beds around the house or next to me while I work 💤🛋️ - Weekend daycare will include a trip to the dog park weather & owner permitting Please read further below about schedule and other info! I am in a permanent work from home role with flexible hours. I will do my best to fit around you / your pet’s schedule but of course if something clashes, this will be outlined prior to booking :) Currently, I typically cafe for your pets in my own home. I strive to make your pets feel most normal while you are away and follow any rules you have set. If your dog is allowed on the couch, fine by me. If not, that is great as well. I will work closely with you to ensure I understand what is best for the dog and how to provide care that is as seamless as possible. I will provide detailed notes (or texts if preferred) of my time spent with your furry loved one and of course pictures galore (if requested).

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years. I love animals and treat them with respect and care. I genuinely love being around animals. I’m currently working part time and taking college classes mostly online. During most days I have time to walk dogs and care for your pets. I have my own 1 bedroom apartment with a dog park on site and plenty of grassy areas to go for walks. I do not have any pets of my own in my apartment.
“Elizabeth is amazing. Extremely reliable, prompt communication and easily handles any obstacle. Highly recommended and very trustworthy. I selfishly hope others don't find her so she is always available...”

About: 10 years professional experience in animal care; 7 years as a vet assistant, other experience as a zookeeper, lab animal tech, and in an animal shelter I work part time and go to school; available during the day and evenings mostly. I work part time Fridays and Saturdays. My days with your pet will focus on their safety and comfort. We will have fun if they want to go out, or hang out indoors if they are nervous. :) I live in an apartment in a quiet neighborhood with no roomates. No other pets in the home. Neighbors with indoor dogs and fenced yards. Willing to restrict "walks" to my courtyard or walk pets one at a time if that is your preference.
“Morgan is excellent and she does a great job with Pablo! Her communication is excellent, and she is always on time and very friendly with Pablo. I highly recommend her.”

“Camryn has been amazing for this first 3 weeks. She scheduled a consultation on short notice, and has been great with timing, communication, and most importantly, care of our dog. We’ll be hiring her for a long time!”

“Lauren looked after my baby while I was out of town, I was nervous because it was his first time spending the night away from me, but it’s safe to say that he had the time of his life!

“This was our first time using Rover. We selected Ellen because she had many positive reviews as well as multiple returning clients. We made the right choice selecting Ellen to watch our fur babies. She is extremely accommodating and understanding. Our 2 pups have a number of quirks, but Ellen worked with them and gave them a home away from home. She sent multiple pictures a day and some videos, along with an update of the daily activities. We will absolutely be using Ellen if we go away and need a sitter. I cannot speak any higher of Ellen.

“Olivia was very responsive and professional. We were looking for a late booking for a spontaneous getaway and she was amazing! She took wonderful care of our headstrong Chessie named Guapo. She kept us updated with photos and their activities. We would trust her anytime we need a sitter again! Thank you Olivia!”

“Sally seemed to enjoy caring for my dog. I was sent lots of pictures and received many updates. My dog was not stressed and content when I picked her up. Thumbs up!”

“Dawn and Rob were amazing! I appreciated their flexibility on a last minute booking and when my plane was delayed. I got many pictures and check ins throughout my doggos stay and had no doubt he was more than well taken care of ♥️”

“Our pups had an amazing time! Alex took great care to love them as if they were her own and gave us plenty of updates. Would definitely recommend”

“Emily and her partner took great care of Kane! She provided daily pictures and updates while we were away, while also not bombarding us with messages constantly. She treated Kane like her own and even provided him with a Christmas toy. I could tell Kane had so much fun when we picked him up. We will definitely be using Emily’s services again in the future!”

“We had a wonderful experience booking with Lizmarie. She invited us to do a meet and greet before the official booking to ensure our dogs got along with her children. She updated us with photos whenever we asked. It is obvious she has a lot of experience with dogs and she genuinely cares for them. I would definitely want to book with her again and would recommend her to any of my fellow pawrents!”

“Angela is very kind and my cat honestly didn’t seem to care that I came to get her, she was ready to just live with Angela! I’ll rebook on the next trip for sure.”

“Emily was great! I really appreciated the photos I got of my dog which she was in her care. Emily was very flexible with drop off and pickup which was very appreciated. I’m sure my dog will be back!”
