While there is a huge variety of components that will do the trick, allow me to be somewhat lacking in imagination and mention the trusty old workhorse L298. There is nothing fancy about it and it definitely is not cutting edge technology. But on the plus side it will work and it is trivially easy to apply.

and probably you could even buy a ready-to-go module. ebay is full of those modules - it's quite popular in the arduino community.
