About: I’ve had multiple dogs in the home for as long as I can remember. From Labs to German Shepherds, I am so grateful to have grown up getting to love dogs. My goal is to build relationships with the pups I work with and to show them the love, care, and attention they deserve! I am currently on break from school, so my weekly routine is very flexible. I am open to setting up any arrangements needed, and I am excited to meet your pet! Through dog walking and doing drop-in visits, I hope to help your pet let out some energy, receive some mental stimulation, and provide them with a lot of fun for the short time I am there.
About: I've taken care of dogs my entire life and am really good with them. Friends and family rely on me often to watch and house sit their animals when they're away. I've lived with dogs my whole life and I love taking care of them. I have two dogs of my own and I love them deeply. I love to take them on walks when it's nice, and I taught my big dog a couple small tricks. I'm currently in college full time so my schedule will change every semester. Currently I'm in class in the morning Monday-Wednesday. I'm available for house sitting the rest of the week and pretty much any time aside from class is okay for check ins and walks. I want to make your animals feel comfortable around me. At my client's home, I will take them for walks, play with them, and care for them accordingly.

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life, until the recent passing of my family dog. I am a graduate of The Ohio State University with a BS in Animal Sciences.

About: I started volunteering at the Columbus Zoo when I was 13 years old because of my passion for animals. This passion led me to also start pet sitting at the same age! I have cared for dogs and cats from a young age all the way up to senior-hood. I work full time in the hospitality industry so my job is to essentially make people happy. I have learned that nothing makes people more happy then knowing their furry loved one is well taken care of! The opportunity to care for your pet is a win win for me as I get to care for your animal and make you happy as well! I work full-time however have a flexible environment where I can cater your pets needs to my schedule. I can accomodate morning, afternoon or evening visits and whatever is needed. I would ensure that I am entering the household as described by the owner to start. Whatever procedure is given, is the one that I will follow.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Worthington
Kaitlyn is wonderful and truly seems to love dogs! She went above and beyond in her communications with us and sent a ton of cute pictures of our dog. Our whole family always enjoyed getting updates, and we were so happy knowing Snowball was being well taken care of. Highly recommend!!
Samantha is great! She took a last minute booking to walk our dog. My husband was out of town and I work long hours, and it was so nice to come home to a content and exercised dog. Her taking care of our dog was great peace of mind knowing she wouldn’t be home alone all day! ☺️
Savannah went above and beyond with my dog making sure she is happy and comfortable. My dog is high anxiety and Savannah took care of her needs while communicating consistently. I received updates as well as pictures, and returned home to a happy dog. I had to reschedule the walk and she was very understanding. Completely satisfied and am recommending her to my pet owner friends.
