“Jessica was absolutely wonderful and incredibly dependable, always arriving right on time. She took the extra effort to truly get to know our cat’s personality and asked thoughtful questions that put us completely at ease. With her great communication and genuine care, we knew our furry friend was in the best possible hands. Plus, she noticed out-of-the-ordinary behavior and alerted us immediately. 5 stars and highly recommend!”
About: Hello my name is michkayla im a single mom that’s unfortunately between jobs I do lots of handyman type side work but not quite cutting at the moment i recently just got my puppy Rufus who was a stray when I found him and it reminded just how hard leaving a pet alone at home all day can be so I figured with my love for pets I’d give this thing a shot im very patient and know how to handle dogs and other pets safely I did 3 yrs of animal science in high school and have 25 yrs of owning pets I’m currently job searching and full time parenting a three yr old im always available from 9-3 for any pet kid friendly anytime before or after those time I ask pets to be kid friendly as I’ll most likely have my child with me I give pets time to get used to me before approaching I’ll often follow up with common training and of course lots of love and some possible treats (with approval from parents )
About: I worked for an AKC dog handler since 2011. 10 years grooming and training all sizes. From a Pomeranian to a giant Schnauzer. I have 1 dog and 5 cats. I am a very active person. I have had animals since I was little. To me they are a stress reliever. I can bathe and dry and trim nails and remove lose hair. I try to find things to do or in nature with my animals as much as possible. I'm 46 and my dog is 8. I am offering boarding and day care. I wake up at 5:30am for the day. Feed at 9am and let dog out as much as every 2-3 hours. Dinner is at 4pm Feeding playing with and making sure they are comfy before I leave the kennel. I also will text if I have a question about something I don’t know about their pet The boarding will be in my dog kennel as I run a business named TGB Pet Services, LLC
About: I have very flexible hours, I am committed to giving your pup or kitty the best treatment possible, I follow all instructions and take their care seriously❤️ I currently am a full time early education teacher!! I do this as a part-time job! Pets are my life I couldn’t imagine not owning any! I have my own pupper and kitty kat!! I am very big on safety!! All doggos must be looked after properly, be given water and plenty of love!! Hope you agree with me!
“A very personable young lady with lots of knowledge and experience. Provided excellent care for my little “crooner”, giving me the peace of mind I needed for a week on the road. Will definitely use Miss Kaitlin again.”
About: What sets me apart is my 15+ years of hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities plus four years as a vet tech assistant, where I learned to safely give medications, monitor health, and care for dogs with special needs. I’ve fostered everything from tiny puppies (two litters during Covid!) to a young German Shepherd named Maggie, which taught me patience, gentle training, and how to make even the shyest dogs feel at home. I work from home at a tech startup, so most of the day your pup will have me at their disposal! I’m also available for boarding on weekends. I love taking dogs on daily walks around the city to explore and get plenty of exercise. At home, your pup will be part of my family and get plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I share my home with Sonny, my easygoing border collie mix, who’s been my best friend for four years. He loves every dog he meets whether they want to play or just coexist peacefully so your pup will have a friendly companion if they’d like one.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Bellefontaine is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $22 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 204 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bellefontaine. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bellefontaine. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
