“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!”

“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!!”

Emily does a great job at communicating and sending photos during his time with her. Kane will continue to stay with Emily and her family in the future.”
“From the moment we met her and she welcomed us into her home, we knew she would be a perfect fit for us and our Molly. She brings your pet into her life and her family and takes care of them. You couldn’t ask for anything more. She sent pictures and kept in contact. I already asked to book her again!! It was huge relief and we are grateful for her!”

“Lauren is absolutely wonderful! Her kind and caring nature shows through in the way she cares for our pups. Lauren is very detailed oriented, giving a report on how our pups got along with her dog and each other, what they ate, if they rested. We feel very blessed to have Lauren to help us care for our fur family.”

“Kirah and Mitch did a great job watching my Chihuahua! They sent lots of pictures and gave me plenty of updates. They took Norman into their house and made him part of their pack.

“Very accommodating for a last minute booking for our rambunctious two boys. They seemed to be comfortable and had a good time. We also appreciated all of the updates while we were away. Thank you both!”

“Our normal dog sitter was going on vacation when we had to leave town. We have a very hard time leaving our pets with just anybody. Both of them are big hunters so we always worry they’re going to get out of the yard or jet out the door. After meeting Sasha and visiting her home, we felt completely safe leaving the dogs with her. She has a fenced in backyard, agility course, and several parks nearby. She treated our dogs just like part of the family! Every single day Sasha sent us pictures of the dogs having a great time playing. Anytime I contacted her she got back with me right away. They even got Pup cups from starbucks. (Sasha texted me ahead of time to make sure it was ok for them to eat them.) When we picked up the girls she left us a lovely note, a picture of each dog, and two cupcakes for dogs. We highly recommend Sasha and are so happy our girls had a good time with her family.”

“Could not rave about Elizabeth more!! She was amazing and my dog loved her!! I’m nervous leaving my dog anywhere, but she really put my mind at ease and was so understanding. Will definitely be booking with her in the future!! Couldn’t ask for anyone better!”

“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!”


About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and understand that pets are family. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I’m patient, dependable, attentive to routines, and skilled at recognizing behavioral changes and individual needs. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, providing companionship, administering basic medications when instructed, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I have experience providing both in-home pet sitting and boarding dogs in my own home. Before transitioning into the corporate world, I partnered with a friend who owned a successful dog-sitting business, where I cared for pets for approximately six years. During that time, I gained experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and care needs. I’m now excited to return to pet care because it’s something I truly enjoy. I enjoy spending quality time with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone reliable to keep them company, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own animals. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and trustworthy hands. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, and plenty of affection. I’ll communicate with you throughout each visit by sending updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I’ll provide patient, loving, and attentive care while respecting your home and your pet’s boundaries. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure your furry family member feels comfortable, secure, and loved every step of the way.

Ann loved Scarlet like she was her own and did a wonderful job communicating with me every day. I HIGHLY recommend her!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was a child. I have helped my girlfriend train our current dog which is a bernedoodle. He knows how to sit, shake, go to his pillow, and he is currently learning to roll over. I currently have a Doberman at my parents house that I help take care of while I am home. I am currently a dental student at Ohio state and I am in school from 7:30-4:00 daily but the weekends I am free. Some days I will finish before 4:00 but that depends on the week. I feed and water my current dogs and cats every morning and every evening. They get treats throughout the day when they exhibit good behavior and listening skills so they know that is a positive thing to keep doing it.

I will have time after work and on my off days to spend the rest of the day caring for pets. My pets are friendly with other animals, my dog gets excited when she gets to meet new friends and then goes about her business. I also have a crate for my dog if anything. I try to give the visiting pup a chance to sniff around first and get warmed up before I let my dog meet her. Allows both dogs to calm down and be relax by then.

About: The first dog I ever met was a stray my family found in the winter—she was trying to stay warm under my dad’s truck. We had just returned from cutting wood and happened upon her all curled up and shivering. I begged my parents to keep her and am grateful they did! We named her Maddie and it was through caring for her that I learned how to properly love, train and take care of animals. I knew early on that I wanted pet-sitting to be a big part of my life. As a kid, I became the neighborhood dog walker and pet-sitter. Friends, family and neighbors would hire me for my services, sometimes for months at a time while they were away! I have been pet-sitting as an adult for awhile now and have helped keep over 30 dogs happy and healthy through house-sitting and walking while their owners were away! A little about me: I’m a student-athlete at Ohio Dominican University, where I study and run track. Being a student athlete for much of my life has taught me how to manage my time and has also instilled in me hardworking values. These are transferable skills that definitely help me manage my pet-sitting business and if you asked one of my clients, I’m sure they would agree that I am kind, caring, professional and hardworking. I can give dogs all the love and care they need, even when it is hard work or demands extra patience! I am also sure to keep in constant communication with my clients and send updates about their pup in real time. I want you to know that your dog is safe and happy when in my care and will do everything I can to make sure you feel satisfied with my work!

“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’m patient and encouraging with younger pets who are still figuring things out, but I’m also extra gentle and attentive with older pets who might need a little extra help or attention. I make sure to get to know their routines, special habits, personalities, and favorite things so they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home! I update my schedule often throughout the week! I am available for all services throughout the week, please check on what days I’m available for which services on the booking calendar! I am located in an apartment. I provide full-time daytime care, overnight stays, drop-ins, or walks at clients’ homes or nearby. When visiting, I respect the clients belongings and know which rooms are accessible during each stay. I’m aware of security cameras. Respectful of bathrooms, showers, Kitchens, Bedrooms. I bring and make my own food. I also discuss how to handle outgoing/incoming mail, trash, and ensure all doors, windows, and garages are locked and secure.

“Kane LOVES going to Emily’s house to stay with his friends Winter and Banner. Emily treats him like family and he gets so excited pulling up to her house every time she watches him. Emily does a great job at communicating and sending photos during his time with her. Kane will continue to stay with Emily and her family in the future.”
“From the moment we met her and she welcomed us into her home, we knew she would be a perfect fit for us and our Molly. She brings your pet into her life and her family and takes care of them. You couldn’t ask for anything more. She sent pictures and kept in contact. I already asked to book her again!! It was huge relief and we are grateful for her!”

“Alex was fantastic with my dog Oliver. I received many pictures and updates on his days. Definitely recommend Alex and her care and Oliver will be back with her!”

“Kirah and Mitch did a great job watching my Chihuahua! They sent lots of pictures and gave me plenty of updates. They took Norman into their house and made him part of their pack. He got lots of snuggles on the couch and two walks a day. They also have a huge backyard and two friendly dogs that Norman enjoyed playing with. I look forward to dropping Norman off with Kirah and Mitch again soon!!”

“Ellen did an amazing job caring for my 2 dogs! She followed all instructions and sent pictures throughout the day. My dogs seemed to be very comfortable with her. Highly recommend!”
“Very accommodating for a last minute booking for our rambunctious two boys. They seemed to be comfortable and had a good time. We also appreciated all of the updates while we were away. Thank you both!”

“Our normal dog sitter was going on vacation when we had to leave town. We have a very hard time leaving our pets with just anybody. Both of them are big hunters so we always worry they’re going to get out of the yard or jet out the door. After meeting Sasha and visiting her home, we felt completely safe leaving the dogs with her. She has a fenced in backyard, agility course, and several parks nearby. She treated our dogs just like part of the family! Every single day Sasha sent us pictures of the dogs having a great time playing. Anytime I contacted her she got back with me right away. They even got Pup cups from starbucks. (Sasha texted me ahead of time to make sure it was ok for them to eat them.) When we picked up the girls she left us a lovely note, a picture of each dog, and two cupcakes for dogs. We highly recommend Sasha and are so happy our girls had a good time with her family.”

“Could not rave about Elizabeth more!! She was amazing and my dog loved her!! I’m nervous leaving my dog anywhere, but she really put my mind at ease and was so understanding. Will definitely be booking with her in the future!! Couldn’t ask for anyone better!”

“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!”


About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and understand that pets are family. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I’m patient, dependable, attentive to routines, and skilled at recognizing behavioral changes and individual needs. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, providing companionship, administering basic medications when instructed, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I have experience providing both in-home pet sitting and boarding dogs in my own home. Before transitioning into the corporate world, I partnered with a friend who owned a successful dog-sitting business, where I cared for pets for approximately six years. During that time, I gained experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and care needs. I’m now excited to return to pet care because it’s something I truly enjoy. I enjoy spending quality time with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone reliable to keep them company, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own animals. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and trustworthy hands. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, and plenty of affection. I’ll communicate with you throughout each visit by sending updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I’ll provide patient, loving, and attentive care while respecting your home and your pet’s boundaries. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure your furry family member feels comfortable, secure, and loved every step of the way.

“This was our first time using Rover and Emily was great. I set up the stay about 2 months out because I wasn't sure how the Thanksgiving would effect finding a place for Lucy. Emily was super and answered so many questions for me. Lucy also had a great time playing with Emily's other dogs. ”


“I love Liz and so does my Jimmy. I couldn't be any happier. I am very protective of my dog since he is a rescue but I trust Liz fully. Always send pics and keeps me up to date. She loves my fur baby as if he was her own. ”

“We highly recommend Beth!! She provided the best care for our rambunctious golden retriever while we were away. She was always quick to respond to texts and provided us with a photo to ensure he was doing great! Again, can't thank her enough for being there with relatively short notice and providing such awesome love and care for our pup.”
“Everything was great from beginning to end! Ellie had a great time with Tom. He was flexible, communicative, and kept her active with lots of walks and play time. He sent the perfect amount of pictures and updates, and I know Ellie would be so excited to go back for future trips! Highly recommend!”
