“Thank you for taking care of Ginger. I was nervous since this was my first time to leave her. Karen did a brief meet and greet meeting before the boarding to make sure I could ask questions and both Ginger and I felt comfortable. Karen seemed very observant of Ginger and bonded with her quickly. I could tell Ginger also felt comfortable around her and at her house. Thank you.”
“Kim was fantastic with our pup, Spartacus. He is a nervous guy and we rarely have anyone outside family watch him. Kim sent us several updates during the day, she took him on a couple walks, and made sure he was comfortable the entire time. We will definitely contact Kim again!”
“Jared was great! Amazing communication, constantly kept me updated on my dog throughout the day with photos and videos. My dog absolutely loved boarding with him and his pups. Would recommend. You can tell he truly cares about animals and will treat yours just like his own.”
“As always, Michelle is amazing! We have been using Michelle to puppy-sit for over a year now & can’t imagine using anyone else. Finley loves spending time with Michelle and her dogs so much it’s like he doesn’t even realize he’s not at home 🖤”
“Super fun! Not only did Montana, but I also had fun with this amazing sitter. The updates made my day! When I got Montana home, she was pooped. She plopped right down full of content. A great experience all the way around! Will certainly use again. While all was fun and games, she is also very good at understanding behaviors and have a thoughtful report to help me better understand my furbaby.”
“Ilaisah & Mario were amazing - we received pics of Finn everyday and it looked like him and Miles were having a blast. They were so accommodating to our late pick up time as well when our flight was way later than expected. Highly recommend them and we will have to set up play dates with Miles in the future!”
“Leann takes great care of our dog. He is older and can be off and on when it comes to socializing with other dogs, and Leann handles that wonderfully. He always comes home healthy and happy.”
“Just left our dog with Shauna for the first time this past week.... She will definitely be our go-to moving forward. We received updates and pictures and I'm pretty sure he didn't want to come home when we picked him up. Highly, highly recommended!!”
“We are repeat clients because there is no one else that our pup loves more than Grandma Jane and Grandpa Scott’s house! Jane shares updates regularly and keeps our active pup busy and happy.”
“Lisa was incredible and will be our go to for as long as she is boarding pets. We had used traditional boarding companies in the past and just didn't feel like us or our pup got the care we were looking for. Lisa went above and beyond to make us comfortable that our pup was having a great stay and worked with us when we had an unexpected issue change our plans. If there was a 6 star option she would earn it.”
“Zeus had a great stay with Stacy and her pooches! We got lots of great pictures of him having fun and going on walks and when we picked him up he was one tired and happy pup!”
About: I’ve grown up with, fostered and been around dogs my whole life. I have a busy schedule during the week so having a full-time pet is not an option for me. Every other weekend I have my children and we love to foster pets/spoil other animals as much as we can! During a boarding experience I will make sure to check in as much as you'd like and send plenty of photos. I currently have every other weekend free and enjoy getting outside as much as possible. I’d love to take care of your pet for you if you aren’t able to walk them for the day. I look forward to having your trust while walking your best friend. Looking into boarding and have limited avaliability right now but hoping to expand that in the future!
“Madison took great care of my girl! She sent me daily updates and photos and responded promptly whenever I reached out. She treated her as if she were her own and I would definitely trust her to watch my baby again!”
“Misty was quick to respond with the initial setup. While she had our dog, she would send daily updates and pictures. Pick up and drop off was easy. Most importantly, our pet was happy!”
“My dog had a great time with Katherine. She is super sweet and gives great care for the dogs she looks after. The yard at her house for the dogs gives them plenty of room to have fun too. Highly highly recommend!!”
“Super amazing experience. My dog did not want to leave when I went to pick him up. He had so much fun. He ran around the backyard and I got pictures of him from Tonia having all that fun. I will definitely be leaving him again maybe just for his fun vacation. Tonia is the best.”
“Josh took great care of our boy, he went above and beyond, making sure our dog was entertained and well taken care off. I was receiving daily updates with pictures and feedback. Highly recommended. I will use his services in the future for sure Ps. He has a great place for your dog needs, cool basement, pool and fence in yard, also his own dogs are very friendly!”
“Our dog Martin always enjoys himself when he is at Josephine's home. Josephine is very caring and has taken great care of Martin. She takes him to the dog park, which he loves and long walks. When he comes home after visiting Josephine’s house he is so wore out from all the fun that he had, that he has to rest. Josephine is informative, send pictures, and is so easy to communicate with. Josephine will be my first choice for a dog sitter going forward.”
“Natalie obviously took great care of Rafa. She has a couple of dachshunds who played with Rafa. Rafa was happy to come home but he had a good week.”
“Nicole was amazing!! If you’re contemplating between her or another sitter, choose her! I boarded my anxious 8 year old beagle mix named Maple for a week and it was the best boarding experience I’ve had. In the past when I’ve boarded Maple she would not eat for the entirety of her stay. I’ve used places like Pet Palace and another Rover sitter in Columbus to board Maple and they always had a very difficult time getting her to eat or do anything outside of hide in the bed I’d brought from home. Nicole changed all of that. Nicole went out of her way to cook Maple chicken to mix in with her food and hand feed Maple as needed. Maple ate every day that she was there and had normal bowel movements. Nicole also went above and beyond, bringing Maple on adventures to every green space in OTR! Nicole sent me updates every day of Maple’s adventures to Ziegler Park, dog parks, Kroger, and even the Black Music Hall of Fame! I should also mention my dog is objectively very strange. She humps the air when she’s excited, nips at you when you stop petting her, and lifts her leg not to pee, but to show she wants pets. Maple’s never been comfortable enough while boarded to show off her array of quirks until Nicole. I was so happy to hear my strange little critter of a dog showed her excited and loving personality to Nicole. When I came to pick up Maple, I saw the nest of blankets Maple had created on Nicole’s couch herself and knew I chose the right person. I will only be going to Nicole for pet sitting in the future! To summarize: pick Nicole if you want your pup to get a lot of love, attention, and exercise. She puts on Dog TV when she’s not there, and goes above and beyond when she is!”

Lisa watched my pup for 4 nights when I had to leave him with someone other than family for the first time. She was so great with updates & pictures, and gave me great training advice when I picked him up. It’s evident that she’s extremely experienced and talented with dogs of all breeds - will definitely rebook in the future!

Holly and her pups were great sitters and will definitely use again. She was quick to respond, friendly and provided sweet updates the week we were out of town.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Who’s a Good Sitter? Shafter Is!” 🐶✨ I’m proud to say I was Shafter’s first client, and he set the bar *high*! From the very beginning, he was incredibly responsive and thoughtful. He sent me regular photo updates and even asked how he could best support my pup through some tough moments—especially during rainy weather, which usually makes my dog uncomfortable. Shafter carefully wrote down all of my instructions and followed them to the letter. I had *zero* hesitation leaving my fur baby with him, and I absolutely would again in the future. Highly recommend!
Rachael was great! She kept me informed with daily updates and pictures of Rosie and clearly gave her the time and attention she needs.
Shauna is amazing! She sent us pictures and updates daily. It’s incredibly reassuring knowing your pet is loved and cared for while away!
They were able to watch our pups for our trip last minute (2 wks out). We loved the daily updates of our pups while we were gone! They were great at communicating with us!
Amanda has done drop-in visits for us in the past. This is the first time we have boarded our pets with her. Everything went well. Our dog got worn out running and playing and our cat got plenty of lap time and attention. We highly recommend her.
Finn always has the best time with Mario and Ilaisah! Love all the pics we always get. 10 stars, always! Thanks guys!
It's always a pleasure to have Feiyang keep our fur baby he takes such good care of her and keeps us updated on how she's doing. We will always use him as long as he's available.
Samia took great care of Rex and made him feel at home. Rex smelled great when he returned I appreciate the fact she treated him with so much care.
