“Tina is awesome. She loves our little girl and makes her daycare, as well as her overnight stays enjoyable. Roo sprints to her door when we arrive. She’s very accommodating and flexible with our schedules. I love that I can get a response from her quickly. She’s a great Rover sitter and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a genuine lover of dogs.”
“Samantha was excellent! We had a meet and greet ahead of my dog Bleu’s stay, and Samantha was incredibly kind, responsive, patient, and flexible ahead of, during, and after Bleu’s stay. I would highly recommend her for your pet(s)!”
“Our chocolate lab had a wonderful time with Emily! They sent pictures often and she always looked loved and that she was having a great time. She gave us great peace of mind and would definitely not hesitate to use her again!!”
“Katelyn and Nicholas were both welcoming and a great host for our 11 month old golden retriever. We were provided frequent updates/pictures which was comforting because this was our first trip without our dog. We will return if we ever need their services again!”
“We found a treasure when we asked Kelly and Ben to help watch our dog while we were out of town! They love that she wanted to meet our Daisy before we made the final arrangements. That gave us such peace of mind. Our pup walked into their beautiful home, and she instantly felt comfortable. Their home is warm and gave us a feeling that our dog would be so well loved while we had to be out of town. Kelly also showed how much she cared and how knowledgeable she is by asking all the right questions and loving on Daisy like she was already a part of their family. Communication was terrific too! We received pictures throughout the weekend of Daisy on walks and being her sweet and silly self with Kelly’s family too! We are so happy with the experience that we already scheduled another time out of town - knowing that our Daisy girl will be totally spoiled and cared for while we are gone. Thank you to Kelly and her family for loving our dog like we do!❤️”
“Fantastic!! This was our first experience with using Rover. We could not be happier with the wonderful family that took care of my Enzo while we went away for several days. Hannah and her family took Enzo in as a family member. She kept me informed and sent pictures and videos of him living a good life with her family. Hannah was fabulous!”
“Our dog Ninja had a great time with Sally. We're not local to Columbus so it was much appreciated to have someone to look after our dog while we attended a family reunion. Next time we are in the are we will be sure to book Sally again.”
“Keylor and Grace were very accommodating when I was running late and when I picked Molly up earlier than expected. They were gracious and kind and took very good care of our Frenchie. She had such a good time with the bigger dogs; she was sad at home without them.”
“My dog stayed with Joe for 2 weeks which is the longest time I have ever left her with someone. She came back very happy and healthy. Joe frequently sent me pictures which was very reassuring to me. I heartily reject Joe as a Dogsitter!”
“Deanna took great care of our pup and was sure to send lots of updates with cute photos and videos. Our dog had fun playing with hers and running around in her spacious yard!”
“My miniature Goldendoodle was in great spirits after her 7-day stay. I got plenty of updates. No issues were noted with her care. I would highly recommend them to anyone!”
“Fantastic care provided for our shitzu with updates and pictures. We were confident our little guy was in great hands and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”
“Leslie was great with my dog during our 5 day vacation. My dog was not happy about being separated from his people and his home. He whined, paced and scratched at the doors the first night and Leslie even slept on the couch with him to help put him at ease. She let him acclimate at his own pace and was very patient. He did eventually settle in and start enjoying his time with her family. It was nice to know that he was in a safe and loving space while we were away and for that I am grateful. I would definitely recommend Leslie when it comes to caring for your furry family members.”
“I loved getting the picture updates and seeing Apollo playing with the kids and other dog while we were away. It really helped knowing he was being cared for by a loving family and not just held in a kennel. Thank you so much and I hope you will care for Apollo again.”

About: We’ve always been big dog people. Growing up around dogs taught us just how much love, attention, and care they truly need and we genuinely believe pups shouldn’t be left alone for long stretches. That’s why we’re passionate about helping others give their dogs the fun, companionship, and consistent care they deserve when life gets busy. We both adore dogs (they honestly make us so happy and bring us a ton of joy), and we’d be excited to play, cuddle, and keep your pup feeling safe and loved. Over the years, friends and family have trusted us again and again to care for their dogs, whether they’re out of town or just need a helping hand. We also enjoy training, and we’re always patiently working on new tricks and good habits with our golden retriever, Daisy! We have amazing work flexibility. We can work around people's schedules. It would just be a matter of coordinating between me and the owner of the pup. In our home, your dog will have a safe, closed fenced backyard to run and play, plenty of toys, and the company of our friendly golden retriever, Daisy. We keep preventive dog meds on hand for things like allergies, and your pup will always have access to fresh water, food, and a variety of treats.
About: I have cared for my neighbors’ cats since I was a kid, along with my family’s own cats. I LOVE cats & adopted my own in college. I am patient with them, loving, reliable & respect specific cats’ needs. I just want to make them feel comfortable and loved!
“Finding Bethani was like an early Christmas! She was absolutely wonderful - professional, kind, so personable, communicative, and our Bean Kitty adored her and the visits! This was our first Rover experience and we are incredibly grateful.”
About: I absolutely love animals! I grew up in a home full of dogs and cats, and helping care for them was such a big part of my life growing up. I now have a cat of my own, my fur baby, Fish 🐱 I recently graduated from PA school and won’t be starting my job until August, which means I have lots of availability this summer! Spending my days with animals honestly sounds like the perfect way to spend the season. I’d love the opportunity to care for and spend time with your pets! (: I don’t start work until August, so I have a pretty open schedule and lots of availability! I do have one week-long vacation planned this summer, but aside from that, my schedule is very flexible. I’d prefer to handle most pet care during the week, but I’m available on weekends as well! 😊 It’s a single-story home, so I’m always nearby and able to keep a close eye on any pets in the house. We also have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and play!
About: Having lived with cats my entire life and currently caring for a senior orange cat, I am familiar with both the quirky and complex aspects of feline care. I understand that cats are not just "low-maintenance" pets; they require a caregiver who can recognize subtle signs of discomfort, respect their independent boundaries, and earn the trust of a shy cat. I am fully comfortable with: - Monitoring hydration - Tracking changes in mobility - Ensuring overall well-being - Engaging them with appropriate play that satisfies their hunting instincts without causing stress - Maintaining strict cleanliness routines, which are vital for the health of both senior and multi-cat households.
“Jamie went above and beyond while we were away for ten days. She watered plants and tended to our new garden with the sprinkler. Plus took such good care of our sweet kitty. As always we truly appreciate Jamie and her care!”
About: I grew up with cats, and they were all very special to me. I currently own a black kitty named Moonlight, who has brought me much joy for the last six years. In owning cats, I have no fear of cleaning litter, giving them their preferred scratches, and providing medication.
About: I have taken care of many different breeds of dogs since I was young. My family relied on me to play, feed and bathe them. I’m currently working part time. I have plenty of time to play and give your pets love and attention! I can’t wait to meet them. I promise to follow all of the rules that are set for me so I can ensure the best care and safety for your pets.
About: I’ve had large dogs my whole life. From training a puppy to adopting a dog. Also taking care of healthy and pets who are sick or need some extra attention with medications or disabilities. I work full time as a nurse and am currently working on my masters. Taking care of your pets and walking them is a way I can relax and get outside. I ask that clients leave instructions on how exactly they want their pets cared for, and will follow those instructions exactly. Safety for your pet is my number one priority.
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently own a 7 year old shepherd lab mix and a rescue Yorkie mix (age unknown but at least 5 years old). I grew up with dogs and have experience with many breeds and many mixed breeds. I have experience with oral medications and special needs as well. I live on a small hobby farm and own a horse, 2 mischevious goats, a couple kitties and some chickens along with my 2 rescue dogs. I grew up on a farm and have taken care of many farm animals as well as house pets. I am currently working from home and would love an opportunity to meet and help others with their pets while they are away from home.
“Ava has been wonderful! She came to meet Oscar and they hit it off right away. She has been excellent with quick communication and lets me know how the visits have gone. I very much appreciate Ava and couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Homer
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I grew up with a black lab, Macey and a Chihuahua mix, Tootsie and took care of them from when I was young until around the age of 16 when they passed away. I also regularly dog sat 5 dogs at once- all with specific needs, diets and medications before the family moved away. I am comfortable with high energy dogs, I will happily administer medication, and we have 2 acres of fenced in land for your dog to run and play! I am a flight attendant so my schedule varies- usually I work 3-4 days a month and they are never the same. Request and I’ll accept if I’m not flying that day, but other than occasional work I’m pretty much always home! I would love to have a dog but because I’m a flight attendant I know I couldn’t give it the consistency and love it would need- however, on days I am home I would LOVE to have a furry friend to play with. We would be happy to host your dog(s) and let them run around our fenced in back yard, explore the barn, and roam the house. We only accept dogs that are good with children and that are potty trained. We have a large kennel if your dog is crate trained and you would like us to use it, but as long as it’s good with kids it’s free to explore. We can administer medication, give treats, and share lots of love and we hope you’ll trust us with your beloved pups ❤️ P.S. my favorite breeds are corgis, labs and golden doodles :) but I’m not picky, all dogs will receive equal love 😉
“Samantha was amazing! She took our pup in for doggy daycare last minute, was so kind and caring, and took fantastic care of our pup! She sent me updates throughout the day with pictures and was so flexible and accommodating to meet our pup’s needs and provide him with the best experience. He loved running and playing with her dogs and came home so happy! Would 100% recommend her and will definitely be using her daycare services again!”
“Tina was as good for me as she was for Tommy! I had a pretty busy, stressful day ahead of me and she took a lot of my problems away by giving me a safe place to leave Tommy where he could play and be kept busy while I got my things taken care of pretty efficiently. Her compassion and kindness will not be forgotten.”
About: I’m a stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule and a great space for your fur baby to play! I’ve owned a lot of different dogs breeds my entire life ranging in size from a chihuahua to a golden retriever. I love routine and will follow your dog care needs exactly how they’re used to. They will receive a ton of love, cuddles and play time from me and my three animal loving kids. We have 5 acres of yard space to play and maintained walking trails in the back of our property for daily walks. I will only accept dogs that are potty trained and good with little kids. I’m happy to administer medication, give treats and give you plenty of updates on how they are doing as I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else. I am home a lot and have a very flexible schedule. I can give frequent bathroom breaks and follow whatever schedule your dog is used too I have a very large yard to run and play in and have well maintained grass walking trails on my property. Your dog(s) will receive a lot of love and attention.
About: Growing up I have always cared for our family pets. Today I have 3 rescue dogs of my own. My pups are apart of my family. I volunteer to transport dogs to a safe homes. Animals of any type depend on their humans to care for them. When their humans can’t be there for some reason they still need that special care and attention. I have always struggled when leaving my dogs to go away. What do I do with them? Who will care for them like I do? I would like to help people to be at ease knowing your pet will be well taken care of in my hands because I understand what it is like to have that worry. I will care for your pet as though they are mine.
About: I have experience with both puppies and seniors. Includes potty training obedience training, dominance training. I’ve worked at a humane society and owned rescue dogs. My approach is to find each individual dog’s motivation to help them grow, learn, and mature. I currently have 2 dogs of my own and enjoy walking and taking them on adventures. I do community work within my school district and would love the added opportunities to fit my love for dogs in my routine more. With dogs non-verbal queues are very important in understanding behavior, needs, and temperament. I pay attention give them good food exercise is a must! When dealing with new dogs, speaking with the owner and what they want is top priority. Setting goals for our poochie pals allows a measurement for tracking success.
“Bill and Mary are a great team that took care of our pup and showed him lots of love. We appreciated a "meet and greet" with their dogs and ours to ensure they got along okay. Our pup was able to play very well with their three dogs. From the way he came home tired, he had an awesome time playing with Bill, Mary and the other dogs.”

“Cassie was amazing!! This was Tilly's first pet sitter experience and Cassie made everything great!! Highly recommend Cassie!! She will be my go to if I ever need a pet sitter again!! 10 STARS!!!!”
About: I have had three dogs, myself and personally trained two of them! Our young growing family will give your pup plenty of attention and love! Your pup must be good with kids and animals as we have two young boys who absolutely love animals and a miniature Australian Shepherd, who will play well with any dog! There are also two barn cats on the property who keep to themselves for the most part. I will send update pictures daily, so you can be assured that your pup is doing great. We can’t wait to host your furry friend! I am a stay at home mom so I can be extremely flexible with schedule and be available for your pet most of the time and attend to the needs of your specific pet. I will be sure to feed your pet as often as they are used to at home and with the food you provide. I spend lots of time outside with the kids so you can also be assured that your pet will be given plenty of outside time! I am happy to leave pets inside if they prefer that as well. With our Australian Shepherd exercise will also not be a concern as he is very playful but he also will leave animals alone if they don’t want to play!
About: I have a two bully breed babies, Paris and Ozzy (Oswald). From one dog momma to another yes ofc your dog can sleep on my furniture! I am a final year ADN-RN student and a PRN Student Nurse outside of class. However, do not let those busy titles fool you I’m very very revolved around my babies and I can be with yours too! I have spent my whole childhood following into adulthood working with a variety of pups with different behaviors/personalities/ and specific needs so I’m convinced I can handle just about anything your pup has to throw at me. I’m definitely not the gal who is ashamed of going out with an extra layer of dog hair to complete my look and I’m certainly not one to pass up a slobbery kiss. We have PLENTY of toys/treats to share and lots of on the go things for walks and playtime at the dog park (don’t worry I have seatbelts for the pups, safety first!) pls reach out to me for any of your fur baby care you might need I’m very flexible as I’m just doing this truthfully for the pleasure of meeting your sweet babies, giving my gal some friends to play with, and some extra money bc lord knows living isn’t cheap as a college student, HA! Don’t feel like holding back on any questions or concerns. I promise I’m very sweet and patient as I have worked with many pups who give me a run for my money but most of the time those are the ones I love having most! I’m very flexible! I have work and school throughout the week ofc, but my schedule is very capable of being attentive to your pet(s) as well as my own. If your pup has any care/daily needs that could potentially run into a concern of yours that you believe I may not have time for don’t be afraid to discuss with me I’m more than willing to work with accommodating to your needs!! My sweet babies Ozzy and Paris are both big fan of outdoor playtime and car rides and they love inviting new friends along for adventures! I am a firm believer in dogs ARE allowed on furniture why would it be fair for them to not also be comfy on the couch or bed ?! I am pretty laid back in my home when it comes to the “pet rules” for the most part. I will treat your pup(s) like my own and ofc send you pictures and videos every time they do something I know I wouldn’t wanna miss out on seeing with my own!
About: I've taken care of several dogs throughout my life cleaning family pet dogs we've had neighbors dogs dogs in the neighborhood. Throughout my childhood we have had biggest dogs medium dogs small dogs. I can discuss scheduling with individual fur baby parents!

About: Hi there! I’m Awia, and I’ve had around 25 years of experience caring for animals. I’ve shared my life with many wonderful dogs and cats, and I currently have a sweet Pekingese named Peking along with two cats, Lolli and Ashley. They’re all friendly, gentle, and used to having new furry friends around. I’ve also volunteered walking dogs at various animal shelters over the years—animals have always been a huge part of my life. I also have six wonderful children who absolutely adore animals. They’re gentle, respectful, and regularly nominated for Kindness Awards at their school. Your pet will receive extra love, attention, and cuddle sessions from them—helping your furry family member feel right at home. I’m currently working on my nonprofit organization, and during my downtime I’ve chosen to walk dogs and care for animals. It’s such a fun and rewarding way to spend the day—you get to hang out with adorable pups, enjoy some exercise, and soak up the sunshine. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for your pets. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I’m fortunate to live within a beautiful nature preserve and park system. This means your pup can enjoy walks along scenic, well-maintained paths with plenty of fresh air and minimal street traffic. If boarding, I’ll make sure your dog gets regular, safe walks and plenty of attention, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. All of my personal pets—Peking, Lolli, and Ashley—are up to date on vaccinations, and are on flea and heartworm prevention medication. For the safety and comfort of all animals, I kindly ask that visiting pets are also clean and flea-free. If a pet arrives needing a bath, I’m happy to provide one, and a pet bath fee will be added to your booking. This ensures a fresh, healthy, and pleasant environment for everyone.
About: I am 23, I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals since I was a baby and have grown up with 20+ dog breeds, I’ve raised and trained Puppies with my mom for years. I have a huge heart for all animals and don’t have any allergies, I do have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 ball python and a decent sized backyard. I give all animals plenty of love, attention and playtime, there is forest and field parks around me so if your dog is good on a leash I can take them there to run around and play, my neighborhood is quiet and calm all the time other than dogs barking few times throughout the day, they will love it here. I’m an animal nerd and know how to care for almost any animal including reptiles, amphibians and bugs! I currently have no job due to my agoraphobia making it very hard to work and have a steady income, I am available all day every day unless I have plans I have a fenced in yard but live in a small house, all of my animals are people and pet friendly so they will not show any aggression towards you or your pets
“Rommel can be pretty shy around new folks so I am always nervous about introducing him to new people. He also isn’t a very affectionate dog (he only likes being petted when he first wakes up, then he has has enough and doesn’t really want that). When I went to pick him up he was loving all over them. I haven’t seen him warm up to anyone as quickly and as completely as he did here. What a wonderful experience!”
“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!”
“Will and Bibiana were absolutely amazing with Milo. They made me feel so comfortable that he would be taken care of and loved just as if he were home with me. They provided lots of pictures and took Milo on lovely long walks in nature!”

The dogs know when she is supposed to come and are so excited when she shows up!”
About: My name is Jordan Harris and I am an animal lover hoping to be able to make a difference in you and your pets life! I have worked with animals in my daily career for the last 10 years, beginning as a kennel technician in a large boarding facility, working in doggy daycare, grooming, and basic obedience dog training. I was promoted to General Manager in 2017 and in 2021 I left my job at the boarding facility to pursue a career in Veterinary Medicine. I currently am a Clinic Office Manager at a veterinary clinic where we care for cats, dogs, and exotic pets. After working in boarding for so many years, I understand that not all pets do well in a boarding facility. I am hoping to offer families and their pets the peace of mind and comfort for your pet however I can, in your home. I currently work full time, 4 days a week. I am free on the weekends and would be more than happy to discuss my weekly availability. 🙂 I do have a 5 year old daughter that may come along from time to time; however only if necessary. If your pet doesn’t do well with children please let me know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly. I am comfortable dispensing medication/strict diets, and handling dogs with special needs such as behavioral, medical, etc. Tell me how your pet prefers their attention and exercise and we will do it their way!
About: I am a lifelong animal lover with extensive experience managing a diverse, multi-species household. I currently own and care for a 6-year-old beagle, a 10-year-old senior (and orange) cat, four guinea pigs, and two rescue rabbits. My daily life involves balancing a high-energy hound with the specialized care required for senior cats and small animals. Having managed this "mini-zoo" solo on numerous occasions, I am highly organized, observant of subtle health or behavioral changes, and strictly dedicated to following established routines. Whether your pet is a social pup or a shy rescue bunny, I pride myself on providing patient, attentive care that respects their boundaries and keeps them happy in the comfort of their own home. My schedule is highly flexible! As a college student taking online summer courses with only a very limited part-time retail job (1-2 shifts a week), I spend the vast majority of my day at home. This allows me to provide consistent companionship, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention for your pets. As a Type A student, I approach pet care with a "safety-first" mindset. I am CPR and Heimlich certified, ensuring I can stay calm and act effectively in an emergency. My 3.6 GPA reflects my discipline; I follow your care instructions and medication schedules to the letter, treating your house rules as my top priority. I am diligent about double-checking locks, gates, and alarm systems to keep your home and pets secure. I also offer frequent photo updates and clear communication so you never have to wonder about your pet's well-being. My goal is to leave your home exactly as I found it and your pets more relaxed than when you left.

About: I have grown up around many different types of animals my whole life, shy, reactive, overly friendly. I am very patient when it comes to animals.

I care for my pets and any pets I get to watch like they're my own. I will play with them, or hangout with them for a long time (they're the best company).
About: I own a husky, american terrier mix, and a cat. I often care for family member pets as well. Whether they are big, small, feline, or canine, I have been around them all and understand how unique each animal can be. I have an open schedule so I can spend as much time with your pet as you like. I am available on weekends for drop-ins, or walks. I understand that each pet and their home deserve the utmost respect. Your needs as well as your pet's are very important to me which is why I will see every request is met.

More recently I have been raising a blue heeler with my dad and I have been reminded of how much better life is with a dog! I’d love to help relieve some stress for those of you who might need a little extra help. I am a real estate photographer, so I usually have lots of downtime in between shoots. I’m also always available in the afternoons past 5 and most weekends! I am able to take long walks with your babies near your home, and I can even transport to dog parks or other areas if needed!

I am a final year ADN-RN student and a PRN Student Nurse outside of class. However, do not let those busy titles fool you I’m very very revolved around my babies and I can be with yours too! I have spent my whole childhood following into adulthood working with a variety of pups with different behaviors/personalities/ and specific needs so I’m convinced I can handle just about anything your pup has to throw at me. I’m definitely not the gal who is ashamed of going out with an extra layer of dog hair to complete my look and I’m certainly not one to pass up a slobbery kiss. We have PLENTY of toys/treats to share and lots of on the go things for walks and playtime at the dog park (don’t worry I have seatbelts for the pups, safety first!) pls reach out to me for any of your fur baby care you might need I’m very flexible as I’m just doing this truthfully for the pleasure of meeting your sweet babies, giving my gal some friends to play with, and some extra money bc lord knows living isn’t cheap as a college student, HA! Don’t feel like holding back on any questions or concerns. I promise I’m very sweet and patient as I have worked with many pups who give me a run for my money but most of the time those are the ones I love having most! I’m very flexible! I have work and school throughout the week ofc, but my schedule is very capable of being attentive to your pet(s) as well as my own. If your pup has any care/daily needs that could potentially run into a concern of yours that you believe I may not have time for don’t be afraid to discuss with me I’m more than willing to work with accommodating to your needs!! My sweet babies Ozzy and Paris are both big fan of outdoor playtime and car rides and they love inviting new friends along for adventures! I am a firm believer in dogs ARE allowed on furniture why would it be fair for them to not also be comfy on the couch or bed ?! I am pretty laid back in my home when it comes to the “pet rules” for the most part. I will treat your pup(s) like my own and ofc send you pictures and videos every time they do something I know I wouldn’t wanna miss out on seeing with my own!
About: I have taken care of many different breeds of dogs since I was young. My family relied on me to play, feed and bathe them. I’m currently working part time. I have plenty of time to play and give your pets love and attention! I can’t wait to meet them. I promise to follow all of the rules that are set for me so I can ensure the best care and safety for your pets.
About: I’ve had large dogs my whole life. From training a puppy to adopting a dog. Also taking care of healthy and pets who are sick or need some extra attention with medications or disabilities. I work full time as a nurse and am currently working on my masters. Taking care of your pets and walking them is a way I can relax and get outside. I ask that clients leave instructions on how exactly they want their pets cared for, and will follow those instructions exactly. Safety for your pet is my number one priority.
About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals my whole life. I know how to deal with their temperaments and stress. I’ve never lived without having dogs. I am always the type of person to take a dog in that I find from the street. I have dealt with strays so I don’t just have experience with well trained dogs. I have also watched over peoples dogs for a while and I started walking dogs since I was 9. My grandma had a community that she lived at and I loved dogs so much that I would walk them for free. My passion for dogs will never go away. I currently work front desk at a hotel. I work Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. I am able to walk dogs those days but only before 1 pm. Thursdays and Fridays I am totally free. And depending on the location, I can also do Saturdays. I currently have 2 dogs and they get walked once a day during the night. I also feed them a little differently than usual. I include green beens into their food as well as other healthy powdered ingredient so they are getting the right nutrition. I am fine with watching dogs at the clients home or mine. The only problem with my home is that I already have 2 dogs of my own. So the dog would have to get along with other medium sized mutts. When I have taken care of pets in another persons home, I like having a specific list so I know what’s best for the dog. I’m able to abide by any rules and I don’t mind if the dog needs extra care. I am up for it.
About: I have over 6 years of experience taking care of locals, neighbors, friends and families pets (dogs, cats, livestock). I currently have 2 golden retrievers that I have trained. I currently work a full time job that I am available before and after work, in the weekday evenings after 4:30pm and all day on the weekend (Saturday and Sundays) I am willing to go on long walks with your dogs. I care deeply for animals and will make sure they are safe and in good care while they are with me.

“Katelyn and Nicholas were both welcoming and a great host for our 11 month old golden retriever. We were provided frequent updates/pictures which was comforting because this was our first trip without our dog. We will return if we ever need their services again!”
“Fantastic!! This was our first experience with using Rover. We could not be happier with the wonderful family that took care of my Enzo while we went away for several days. Hannah and her family took Enzo in as a family member. She kept me informed and sent pictures and videos of him living a good life with her family. Hannah was fabulous!”
“Our dog Ninja had a great time with Sally. We're not local to Columbus so it was much appreciated to have someone to look after our dog while we attended a family reunion. Next time we are in the are we will be sure to book Sally again.”
“Keylor and Grace were very accommodating when I was running late and when I picked Molly up earlier than expected. They were gracious and kind and took very good care of our Frenchie. She had such a good time with the bigger dogs; she was sad at home without them.”
“My dog stayed with Joe for 2 weeks which is the longest time I have ever left her with someone. She came back very happy and healthy. Joe frequently sent me pictures which was very reassuring to me. I heartily reject Joe as a Dogsitter!”
“My miniature Goldendoodle was in great spirits after her 7-day stay. I got plenty of updates. No issues were noted with her care. I would highly recommend them to anyone!”
“Leslie was great with my dog during our 5 day vacation. My dog was not happy about being separated from his people and his home. He whined, paced and scratched at the doors the first night and Leslie even slept on the couch with him to help put him at ease. She let him acclimate at his own pace and was very patient. He did eventually settle in and start enjoying his time with her family. It was nice to know that he was in a safe and loving space while we were away and for that I am grateful. I would definitely recommend Leslie when it comes to caring for your furry family members.”
“I loved getting the picture updates and seeing Apollo playing with the kids and other dog while we were away. It really helped knowing he was being cared for by a loving family and not just held in a kennel. Thank you so much and I hope you will care for Apollo again.”

Communication was great and the dogs were so loved on! She was very accommodating and has a perfect space for pup sitting. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and hope we have another chance!”
“Erika was amazing, very caring with my Malula, was accommodating and always gives you great daily reports with pictures and activities, my dog was super happy and so I was, as I have never left her with someone I didn't know before, and must say it was a great experience, I highly recommend her, it's a super fabulous pet sitter and host, she make space for my dog only in her house, and give her many walks and play time!
