“Blue has been watched by Dawn and Robert since he was about 9 months old, he is now 2 and still LOVES going to their house. He loves all the attention he gets from the grandkids, and the huge backyard of course! I know this family loves blue like their own 🥰”
“Mary was very friendly and loves all animals. She sent daily updates and included pictures. Thanks for taking such great care of our dog!! Would definitely recommend!”
“Tamisha was wonderful. We had a family emergency and we had to fly out and she came through. She was so helpful and Eden had a great time. She kept us updated and sent photos. I would highly recommend Tamisha.”
“Marena was our dog savior! We had a last minute trip out of town for the 4th of July weekend and our regular boarder couldn't watch our dog. Thankfully, Marena was willing to help us out. She's so positive and caring, we had no worries about our dog who can be anxious around new people. I HIGHLY recommend Marena. She's not only an awesome dog caretaker, she's an awesome person. Thanks so much!”
“Scott and Katrina were wonderful! They communicated with us throughout Kona’s stay and sent lots of photos and videos, which we really appreciated. Kona loved playing with their dogs and having their beautiful backyard to run around in. Scott and Katrina were both so sweet with her, and it was obvious that Kona felt happy and comfortable with them. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!”
“Our Goldendoodle Posey is a “spicy girl” and we couldn’t just leave her with anyone. Karla was our trainer at Take The Lead Dog Training and we were so impressed with her skills at helping to train our strong willed and somewhat naughty girl. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not worry about Posey because I knew she was in good hands. Posey got the chance to get some socialization with other dogs which she needed. I will definitely use Karla again.”
“Lauren took the best of care of Teddy and really made it comfortable for us to leave him with her. Definitely would recommend and will be a repeat customer.”
“Oh my gosh!! I cannot say enough about Sean!! My dog has a lot of puppy still in him and can be a handful right now. Sean was patient and make sure my dog had lots of playtime. I received several photos and a video each day. I did not have any worries and was able to enjoy my vacation without wondering how my dog was doing. I have found my permanent boarding and I couldn’t be happier!”
“Ellen and her family were amazing. They showered our dog with love, attention, care, and provided us with frequent picture updates. They made us feel at ease as we knew that Archie was going to be feeling right at home for the duration of his stay. She is the best and I would recommend her to anyone. We will boarding Archie there again!!!!!”
“Emily is amazing and always takes such great care of our dog! We can relax knowing she’s in good hands & having fun when we’re gone. When our travel plans got delayed, Emily went above and beyond to make sure Duncan was safe & taken care of until we got home…she truly cares for our dog as her own. Highly recommend!”
“Beth is great with Ireland while I’m at work! She is easy to get ahold of and sends pictures and video updates of my boy Ireland. I know when I drop him off that he is happy and in great hands.”
“My dog had a fantastic time with Hasber. He sent lots of pictures and updates. He was also very flexible when I asked to extend the stay on short notice. She came home tired, which is not easy for an aussie!”
“Marlyn came through for us last minute when our previous dog sitter became unavailable. She took great care of Pepper and sent many pics! Much appreciated and will definitely use her services again.”
“Deanna was patient with our 7 months puppy who needed extra love and attention! She kept us updated with pictures and images. Our puppy even bonded with her pack! They came home happy and well.”
“Karen took the best care of our old guy and treated her as one of her own. We will be happy to bring him back and can’t say enough good things about her.”
“Megan and Jay are amazing! They’re so thoughtful, warmhearted, and truly wonderful people. They took such great care of Malie, and she felt right at home with them. Their boys were fantastic with her—playing and keeping her entertained. I loved receiving daily photo updates from Megan, and it was clear how happy Malie was during her stay. She came home happy, loved, and well cared for. 😊 I’m already looking forward to her next stay with them! Thank you Megan, Jay and the boys!”
“Angie was wonderful with our one year old mini bernedoodle Reggie. This was only the second time he stayed in someone’s house and the first time with Angie ! She’s a happy, very positive person and gave Reggie lots of TLC while we were away. She also had to administer pills to him and she wasn’t bothered by that at all. We plan to use her services again in January 2026.”

“Angela is a true cat professional! My poor cat had a serious stomach upset right before my trip. We visited the vet, but she still needed some extra home care afterward. Luckily, Angela took such wonderful care of my cat. Seeing her recover and receiving detailed daily updates was a huge relief for me. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“JoVonna was amazing, she took care of my two cats for a week and gave one their medication! She sent pictures every day, and I never doubted they were in great hands while I was on vacation. She is very kind and great with animals!! I highly recommend!”
“Victoria is an absolute lifesaver and I will definitely book her again. She came through for me on SUPER short notice for a work trip and gave me complete peace of mind about my cats being well taken care of.”
“Pat was a lifesaver! We have a senior chihuahua with special needs who is very difficult to work with to say the least. Pat was very patient, kind, and understanding of her needs. She showed up every day on time and gave our little fur baby lots of love. Pat is like one of the family and we will be calling her in the future!”
“Alex D. was the perfect cat sitter for our 7 year old Ellie. With this being our first time to use Rover, we were not sure what to expect, but Alex definitely reassured us. She kept us informed through photos and correspondence, and it was wonderful to see that our shy Ellie totally trusted Alex and willingly greeted her each day and let her pet her. We highly recommend Alex and so appreciate her care and understanding of cats.”
“This is our second year of having Taylor cat sit for us while on vacation and I just can’t say enough good things. I think our cats behavior says the most about the quality of her care - our least social cat is currently waiting by the door for her at her normal check in time, even though we’re home and he’s been fed and has all of his favorite things. I wouldn’t trust anyone else in my home and with my pets, I cannot recommend her enough! We are so lucky to get to work with her, if you’re in need of a dependable and trustworthy sitter, this is your person.”
“Heather was incredibly responsive and took great care of my kitties. Her update pictures helped put me at ease while I was away. I highly recommend her as a sitter!!”
“Melanie did a fantastic job watching our cats! She was very attentive to our cat who requires special care as well as our more skittish cat, and sent lots of updates and photos. It was so easy to communicate with her and she did a wonderful job with everything. Our place was spotless when we returned. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Ann, you are the kitty whisperer! Ann has cared for multiple generations of kitties in my household and she is attentive, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. I am grateful to have someone I can trust to care for my kitties while I travel.”
“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!”
“Kam did the job as requested keeping my kitties sane and fed in their family's absence. It was a great help because our regular sitter was unexpectedly unavailable and I had only a matter of hours to secure a new sitter. They were responsive and made themselves available to us on very short notice. I greatly appreciated that-- then I could go on our family vacation with our worries.”
“Marae did a fabulous job taking care of our kitties while we were away for a week! She provided regular updates and photos and is clearly excellent / knowledgeable about caring for cats. Would definitely recommend her!!!!”
“Kara was a great cat sitter! She did everything I asked, and was so good with my kitties. I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures! Definitely recommend her services :)”
“Travis was excellent. He followed each of my steps for my two cats and was very communicative. I appreciated his thoroughness and his responsiveness! Although my cats hid during his visits, I felt immensely better by having someone check in on them!”
“Nicole is THE BEST!!! This was my first time using Rover -- and it was a very high stress situation, what with the friend supposed to watch my cat cancelling less than 24 hrs before we were set to leave on vacation. Nicole came over for a meet-n-greet barely an hour after I initially contacted her. She then took the most amazing care of my baby, truly exceeded my expectations -- sending all kinds of pics and videos which not only eased my mind, but also showed all the love and attention she was providing. I was worried he would hide the entire time and the best I could hope for was that at least he would get fed -- but Nicole is truly magical. And she became his new best friend. I would, and will, use Nicole again in a heartbeat -- and if you are reading this in contemplation of hiring her, I HIGHLY encourage you to do so. I cannot say enough good things about her and this experience.”
“Asiah is amazing! She’s very communicative, takes lots of pictures and made my vacation calm as I didn’t have to worry about my furry babies. I highly recommend her services. Thank you Asiah!!”
“Brooke was absolutely amazing with our babies! We were scared to leave them with someone that wasn't family or a friend but she eased those scares! She sent plenty of pics & always made sure to ask before giving something to the pups or doing walks with them ! We will definitely book her again in the future!!!! Thanks for being such a sweet soul to our babies! 😊”
“Vanessa did an amazing job! This was my first time using rover and Vanessa made the experience worry free, Jazz was well taken care of and will definitely book with Vanessa again.”

“Ginny had a great time at Sean’s house! It was hot today so he kept her inside and she was good and tired when she got home. She even made me a painting which Sean sent a video of. We will definitely book again!”
“This was the first time for our Richmond! Lauren is super communicative and just getting pictures of Richmond put us at ease. We could tell he enjoyed himself. So awesome!”
“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!”
“Jodi was so awesome with my sweet girl. She loved her through a long weekend away from me. Something she's not use to. She sent pictures showing how well she was doing and it made me feel much better to see how well she was doing!! I highly recommend Jodi, she treated Luna as if she was one of her own dogs. I'm forever grateful for that and for putting my mind at ease on how she was doing. You will never regret using Jodi, she's AMAZING!!”
“I booked day care for my daughter's dog Gunner for the entire day on 4/4. I met with Kathryn and Teddy a few days before leaving him at her house and felt good about the upcoming visit afterwards. Kathryn sent me multiple photos during the day which I truly appreciated. It was great to be able to leave him somewhere I felt would allow him to be less anxious as Kathryn let me bring his pet bed and pillow which he uses regularly at home. He also has multiple small feedings through the day which she gave him. The fenced in yard she has is huge! I'm grateful to have a place I can take Gunner where I will feel I can take care of any business at hand with no worries about leaving him.”
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.
“Will and Bibiana are the best. They have treated my puppy Nella like their own. They have helped Nella and I beyond what I could have hoped. Would recommend to anyone for the best care! Thank you guys so much for all the help!!”
“Scott and Katrina were the sweetest people and I felt so comfortable leaving my girl in their care. They have the perfect set up for dogs and you can tell they truly care for the dogs in their home. We will definitely be repeats!”
“Thank you so much for taking amazing care of Jack and Rosie for the day while we spent the day at the fair. I was able to enjoy our time with the grandkids because we knew our fur babies were in awesome hands. Thanks again!!!!!”
“Fran’s ears go up followed by a cute little head tilt whenever I mention that it’s “time to go see Mrs. Laken” 😀 I can tell she really loves her days there and getting to hangout with Remy and Mouse, other pet friends and of course Bostynn ☺️ because she starts to get so excited as soon as we turn onto the street. I appreciate all of the cuddles and love my girl receives. Thank you from me and Nanny Fran.”
“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! :)”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
About: I’ve been a foster parent for Columbus Humane for 5 years. I’ve fostered everything from big dogs rescued from abuse cases to litters of kittens and their moms to pregnant guinea pigs! I also grew up in a house with 5 dogs and 2 cats—so nothing can surprise me. I have experience with breeds of all sizes, puppies, special medical needs, senior/end-of-life care, mixed animal homes (dogs AND cats, for example), and behavioral issues (other-dog aggressive, skittish, etc). I study from home all day and relax by going on walks with a science podcast. Your house, my house, whatever works—I’d love for your pup to join me! I’m currently studying from home full-time! So plenty of time for play, walks, potty breaks, or cuddles. I can do overnight boarding and doggy daycare at my house (I have a fenced backyard). I can offer lots of walks and attention as I study from home. I have a fenced-in backyard for playtime/potty and spare rooms for separation if needed. There is 1 set or stairs, but I can carry those who cannot do stairs if they are under 30lbs. I have experience with medical needs and first-aid. I’m happy to discuss your unique situation and see if we fit!

“It has been wonderful working with JoVonna. Communication is especially great. I’m grateful she has been added to our puppy raising team! It takes a village! 😅”
“Victoria has been amazing! We have booked with her several times and my dog genuinely loves her which is saying a lot since he is very particular when it comes to people!”
“Autumn did a great job caring for my two dogs. One of my dogs is elderly and has several medical problems. Autumn was very capable and comfortable with this. I will definitely trust her again in the future with my fur-babies.”
“Jaz is wonderful. She showed for me up last minute for a dog walk, and she always responds to messages promptly. You can tell she really cares about the dogs under her care as if they were her own dogs. I don’t think I could recommend anyone better!”
“Vanessa is such an incredible support. She thinks quick and stays in control. We have a reactive dog and she always provides a safe and supportive environment.”
“Darren is an amazing dog walker!! He shows up either a little before the scheduled walk or on time. Darren is very good with our boy, Trooper. Trooper loves him! Darren is kind, amiacable and very responsible; all qualities an exceptional dog walker should be!”
About: I have had a dog ever since I was born, and am now 23 years old! I helped train my newest dog, so I have a lot of experience in puppy training. My last dog unfortunately had to have her leg amputated when she got older, so I also have experience with disabled dogs. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter for years, so I am good with all kinds of dogs- big and small, anxious and energetic, etc. Whenever one of my friends is out of town, I am their go-to pet sitter. I pet sit for a lot of my friend’s cats, so while I’ve never had one, I know how to take care of them. My dog, Rosie, is my entire world, so I know how important your pets are to you! I will treat them as if they are my own :). I do have a full-time job, but it is very flexible. I am able to leave during the day if needed for your pet! My nights are always free too, so I am able to house-sit. Your pet will be my #1 priority in my routine! I will keep your pet safe with my life! I will ensure they are on a leash when outside and make sure they are comfortable and getting their exercise in. Inside, I love to play with them! I will ensure no doors are left open so they can’t slip outside to maintain their safety. But I will make sure they are having fun while inside!
“Donald was incredible!! I’d recommend him to anyone and everyone! He was helpful and accommodating. I appreciated the photos he posted after each walk which helped ease my anxiety of keeping my new dog at home alone while at work.”
About: I have taken care of a vast majority of pets but mostly cats and dogs. I have watched over many dog breeds especially ones with certain medical needs I am currently an online only student so I have plenty of free time to offer clients for those pets that need it. I can make the best out of any situation. Coming into a client’s home I will always ask the routine and/or needs your pet(s) has and make sure to keep them company when they need it
“After 2 walks with Mallory, I'm pleased. Jimmy knew what she was here for the second walk. He's tired after, which is what I wanted. I added a pic of him sleeping tonight (1 1/2hrs) after his walk. His eyes are rolled back in his head, and snoring. Mallory is very kind and obviously loves animals. I'm so grateful to have found a great match. Excited to see Jimmy be more active.”
