“Kaitlyn was a great sitter and made me feel like my dog was very well taken care of. She was extremely prompt with her communication and was also flexible. I will definitely use her again! Thanks Kaitlyn! Grimm had a blast with you.”

“Hunter was just awesome. My dogs both loved him. He was responsive to changes and really came through even though we had five inches of snow and temps in the 4-10 degree range. Thanks again, Hunter!”

“I can't say enough about Abby! My dog is pretty shy and fussy about who he makes friends with. Not when it came to Abby! They bonded almost instantly and became great walking buddies from day one. She takes him on various routes and mixes up the scenery. With the heat wave we've been having, she's used good judgement and prudence on how far the walks should go and always brings water and bowl for Sparky to hydrate. I always look forward to her notes and pics after each walk too. Overall experience: Top notch 100% Five Star Plus! You rock Abby!”

“Thank you so much for stopping in to take care of my baby! I appreciate it and so happy she warmed up for you, she’s nervous around new people 😊 Thank you!!!!”

About: have extensive experience caring for cats with special needs and common health conditions. I’m familiar with upper respiratory infections (such as feline herpesvirus), ear mites, digestive sensitivities, and post-surgery recovery care. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, eye drops, and ear treatments as instructed by pet parents or veterinarians. I pay close attention to symptoms such as sneezing, nasal or eye discharge, ear scratching, appetite changes, litter box habits, and overall behavior to help monitor a cat’s condition. I understand how to properly isolate cats when needed, maintain a clean and low-stress environment, and follow hygiene protocols to reduce the risk of cross-contamination—especially in multi-cat households. I’m patient with shy, anxious, or reactive cats and take a gentle, calm approach to build trust. My goal is always to keep cats comfortable, safe, and stress-free while keeping pet parents informed with regular updates. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for regular walks, drop-ins, boarding, and extended stays, and I make sure pets are never rushed or left unattended for long periods of time. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and trust in both my home and my client’s home. I carefully follow all care instructions provided by pet parents, including feeding routines, medication schedules, and special needs. I keep a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, and I always monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. I’m experienced in managing multi-pet households, maintaining proper hygiene, and ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and informed while they’re away.

About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life. I have taken care of them for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had a golden doodle named Gracie whom we loved. After she passed, we were asked to take care of a local school’s facility dog named Lucy. We have had her for 5 years now. She is the absolute best! I grew up taking care of my neighbors cat while they would go on vacations. When I got to college, my sister got a kitten that my friends were naturally obsessed with. Every minute was spent with him. A couple years later, my roommate got a cat named Tony who we took care of as a house. I am a lover of all animals! No request is too crazy for an animal. I will treat your furry family as if it were my own! I am currently on the job hunt, so I spend most of my days job hunting and keeping myself busy with my various hobbies. I am looking for a way to make some extra money and I love animals so it’s a win-win! I follow your pet’s routine closely! That includes feeding, playtime, walks, and medications. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, while keeping your home clean and providing updates for peace of mind.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of reliability, patience, and hands-on experience with a wide range of pets. I have worked with energetic puppies who need consistent training and structure, as well as senior dogs who require extra gentleness, attention, and care. I’m comfortable administering medications, following specific routines, and adjusting to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Beyond basic care, I bring strong communication skills—I keep owners updated so they feel confident their pets are happy and safe. My background working with animals in different settings has made me adaptable, attentive, and proactive, whether that means reinforcing good habits with puppies, providing comfort for older pets, or managing groups of dogs. I currently work at a pet care facility, so caring for animals is already part of my daily routine. Outside of my shifts, I’m available to provide pet sitting and drop-in visits, which allows me to stay flexible while continuing to do something I love. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, playtime, and medication instructions exactly as provided, and I make sure to give extra attention to their favorite spots and habits—whether that’s a window perch, a certain toy, or a bedtime routine. I keep the home tidy, refresh food and water regularly, and make sure the litter box (or yard for dogs) is clean and comfortable. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel connected while they’re away.
“Janasha did a great job taking care of Hudson while we were out of town! She was very pleasant, dependable and communicative! She sent us pictures from their walks and little updates about how everything went! Will definitely book again!”

About: I have several years of experience providing overnight care to dogs of all breeds, sizes and health needs. I can give medication to dogs or cats including pills and inhalers, watch multiple pets at once, provide food and water in whatever ways they need (I have watched dogs who needed me to pretend to microwave and garnish their food) and can keep your pets comfortable by turning on pet music. I am great with cats, and I can also feed and bathe parrots. I work part time with incredibly flexible hours, so it will be no problem to stop by and let your pet out during my workday. I am also free in the afternoons on Mondays and Thursdays, in the late evenings on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and I am typically completely available on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I live in an apartment and am not able to care for any pets in my own home, but I am happy to take care of pets in your home and maintain a happy space, playing soft classical music for animals and maintaining the cleanliness of your space! I can provide oral or inhaled medicine, provide food and water however your pet likes it, and can give them as much exercise and enrichment as they need!
About: I’ve been a dog owner and lover for many years…and I’ve been a cat’s human for many years as well. I’ve got a 9 month Bully/Boxer puppy that loves naps, long walks and my homemade dog ice cream. I’ve also got a Russian Blue that also loves naps, long walks in his backpack and stealing toys from the puppy 😄 I currently have a lot of flexibility to work around you and your fur family’s schedule. I can also do multiple daily visits if you are going out of town and want to avoid kenneling. I am not open to having other animals in my home…it’s already a zoo in here! I can walk in your neighborhood, or take to your preferred dog park.
About: I am a dog lover who does basic training. I also love to spoil dogs. I have taught my fur baby how to ring the bell, sit (in sign language too), stay (in sign language too), good girl in sign language, down, paw, leave it, and come here. I am a person who can care for your dog full-time when I have them. I am free to watch the fur babies everyday of the week. Tuesday & Thursday pick up and drop offs must be after 5 pm. I have a fenced-in yard that will keep your fur baby safe. I do have a Medium size GSD that is non aggressive. In addition, I have a large area in the house where your fur baby can play and enjoy running around.
About: Hi! My name is Sophie! I am a recently new stay at home mom to my son, a wife and a dog mom! Since 2015 I have been immersed in the animal world starting off as a kennel assistant in a vet clinic. In 2019 I graduated from the Ohio State University with a bachelor's in Animal Sciences and up until this past year I have been a service dog trainer for Canine Companions. I have recently decided to be a stay at home mom and want to continue to use my love and expertise with dogs to help other people! I have 2 dogs of my own! A German Shepherd named Nova and a Lab/Golden Cross named Greer. Both my husband and I take responsibility for them, feeding them twice a day, exercising them and making sure they have many opportunities to go outside to do their business! For clients I am available for whatever works best for your pets needs! Both my dogs have freedom all throughout our home. Since I have dog training experience I use all positive reinforcement to encourage behavior that we want. On walks and around our home I utilize treats to help my German shepherd to stay engaged with me. Whatever a client needs for their pet, I am more than comfortable adapting to that.
“Jade is great with our dogs, who can be rambunctious, and just overall delightful to deal with. She's punctual, patient, and pleasant to all of us. Thrilled to have found her.”

“Marci is so wonderful and warm and Goose absolutely loves her! She takes him on long walks and it’s clear the have fun together. Very reliable and great with updates. Marci is a rare find 💜”

About: Welcome to my profile! My name is Emily. I am a wife, a pediatric nurse & newly a mom to a beautiful baby girl. I also have two silly cats named Greta & Beatrice. My life has always involved animals. I grew up with several cats & dogs in my home and love both of them! I am reliable, attentive, and treat every pet with the same care I would give my own. I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need medication or extra attention. I stick to your routines, watch for the little details, and keep you in the loop with updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy. Hope to hear from you soon & work closely with you and your fur baby! I’m currently on maternity leave with my new baby girl! When I return to work at the hospital in September it will be very part time, so I will have plenty of time to walk, watch or check in on your pets! I am able to be flexible with you & your pets routine! I am happy to come to your home to check in on your pets or walk your dog!
Worthington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sam is the sweetest and caring walker and companion to any animal she cares for. Sam was our first experience with Rover and she has exceeded our expectations. She lives very animal as they’re her own and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. She took our sweet puppy Potato on walks for a week and he is so happy to see her. So much love and appreciation for all she does ❤️
