Who We Are

Come Sit & Stay isn't just a business - it's a labor of love born from our genuine passion for dogs and their wellbeing. Located in Ostrander, just 10 minutes from Dublin, we've been Central Ohio's trusted dog care partner for over a decade.

What started as a small daycare for neighborhood pups has grown into a comprehensive care facility serving 500+ happy families. But we've never forgotten our roots - every dog that walks through our doors is treated like family, with the individual attention and love they deserve.

We believe that exceptional dog care goes beyond just watching your pup. It's about creating meaningful experiences, building trust, and giving you complete peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in the most loving hands possible.

Jennifer & Mark Gamble

Jen and Mark’s story began in 2021, and together they’ve built a lively, love-filled life with their five amazing kids and two playful German Shepherds, Bear and Koda, who always keep things exciting. Jen, a proud Central Ohio native, has had a lifelong connection with animals. From raising and rescuing them to lovingly caring for every creature that’s crossed her path, her passion has always been clear. Owning Come, Sit and Stay Kennel is more than just a business—it’s the realization of her lifelong dream to create a safe and happy place for pets.

Mark, originally from Pennsylvania, made his way to Columbus just before his sophomore year of high school. After serving eight years in the U.S. Marines and living across the country, he’s always found his way back to the area he loves. Though he works in the automotive industry, Mark often lends a helping hand at the kennel, proving he’s as dedicated to the dream as Jen. Together, their passion, warmth, and care shine through in everything they do at Come, Sit and Stay Kennel, where every pet (and their humans) are treated like family!
