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.

“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! ☺️”

“Elizabeth is amazing. Extremely reliable, prompt communication and easily handles any obstacle. Highly recommended and very trustworthy. I selfishly hope others don't find her so she is always available...”

“I gave the wrong address by mistake, and Rachel still took the time to go to the correct one to let my dog out. She truly went above and beyond, and I’m incredibly grateful.”

About: I have worked in a humane society and own two dogs I have raised from puppies! My oldest is almost 7 years old and my youngest is almost 2! I’m currently a Sahm, so I have no work schedule to work around! I do have a 3 month old daughter that will come with me to the sits! I love all pets like they’re mine! My dogs are spoiled beyond belief🤣. So you can trust yours would be as well! Treats, walks, snuggles or playing, I love all of it!
About: Our family loves dogs! We love to play out back with them and take them on walks. They will get lots of exercise and love at our house! There is someone home throughout the day to take care of their needs. Our whole family helps to care for dogs. There is almost always someone at the house even during the week. That means lots of attention and love! We have a good sized yard with a 6 foot fenced. We have 4 kids from elementary school to college and they love playing with dogs too. We will take family walks in our beautiful neighborhood with all of our furry friends. We are home most of the day and spend a lot of time with your dog. This means we will have the time to go for a long walk. We treat all pets like we would treat our own. So they are like family. We give them plenty of love and play time outside.
“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’ve cared for dogs since I was young. I help all of my friends in the military when they go out of town and I know how much of a pain it can be to find someone trustworthy! I love animals and never want them to go without love and care! I am currently working at Lowe’s part time. I work 4-6 hours a day if I even work that day. My husband works in the military and is home at nights and sometimes teleworks. I have a fenced backyard and a live in a nice area where I can walk the dogs to a nice park in the middle of my neighborhood. I have a 3 year old golden retriever who loves the company just as much as I do.
“Abby has been fantastic with my 2 year old Golden. She takes him on a different route every time and Goose is here for it! Very punctual and great with updates. I’d give her 6 stars if there was a 6th!”

“Marlyn was great, per usual! Had gotten some surprise buckeye football tickets and needed a spur of the moment dog sitter for the day. Only one person came to mind in this panic and that was Marlyn. She has watched our sweet Stella before and did such a great job. So much so she didn’t want to come home haha. Marlyn sent pictures and kept us posted the entirety of the day which always puts us at ease. 11/10 ✊🏽”

About: I have had a dog growing up ever since I was a little girl. I have always puppy sat for past neighbors and family members and treat them as my own! I love dogs, always have and now have my own Bernese mountain dog and chocolate lab! Very available and flexible with time to help care for your fur babies! I can provide as many potty breaks as needed- also have a dog park within our apartment neighborhood! As always I will treat any home I enter with the greatest respect and caution and will welcome mine to any dog I dog sit!
About: I grew up taking care of friends and neighbors pets while they're on vacations and still do. Our family adopted a cat named Lisa in 2023, and I love taking care of animals. I currently have plenty of time over the summer to do pet care since I'm on break from college. I also mow lawns for people around Worthington, but am easily able to decide what times I want. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any special instructions, so they feel at ease. I focus on keeping pets in their familiar environment to reduce stress, and make sure the home stays secure and tidy.
About: I've lived with pets my whole life and have found a passion for caring for animals with the same love you have for them! I specialize in cats of all ages and dogs over the age of one. I've had about 5 years of experience in working with anxious dogs who are scared of everything - very used to taking a long time to grt scaredy dogs outside. With that, I'm very experienced in delivering medications or cleaning up messes. I understand how stressed our fur babies feel when we need to leave them and my main goal is to make them as comfortable as absolutely possible. I work full time Monday-Friday but do have some work from home days during the week. I would be more than happy to visit your home during the day for walks or quick take outs! I am also happy to come visit you and your fur babies at anytime to get a better idea of your schedule. I am working on getting Fear Free certified and would be more than happy to provide that certification once acquired. I would be happy to crate your pets if needed. I'll send plenty of photos and updates throughout my visit!
About: I have 10 years experience as a dog groomer and vet tech. I have a degree in Veterinary Technology. I've since moved on to caring for humans as an ICU RN, but I miss meeting new doggo friends! I can also offer grooming for small dogs as well as nail trims! I have 1 cat and 3 small children. Any interactions are obviously supervised, but for everyone to be safe and happy, pets I care for need to be comfortable around children. I currently work rotating shifts, so I often have availability for short getaways, occasional late date nights, or daily walks when you're stuck working late. I have lots of experience handling dogs of all sizes and cats of all attitudes. Even if your pet is a little spicy, there's a good chance we can still get along. All dogs need to be crate trained for sleeping at night and when we step out during the day
Worthington dog parents share their Rover experiences
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.
