About: I have taken care of a Chihuahua and a golden retriever for years. the Chihuahua for 8 years and the golden retriever for 3 years. I am available for pet services in mix with my school schedule since I am a full time college student. I have free time usually in the evenings and would love to spend it with lovely fur babies. I prefer taking care of pets In the owners home, I live on campus housing so while there is quite a lot of opportunity for outside space and time I do not have a fenced off area. in the owners home I stick to their schedule if provided for feedings, bathroom breaks, etc. My space is smoke-free.
“Alex so awesome. I would highly recommend her to watch your precious angels. She made everything so easy. She was very patient with my huge scared and shy newfoundland Buckley. My other 2 dogs Harpo and Jax fell in love with her very quickly. Alex and i messaged back and forth and i gave her some ideas to get Buckley to warm up to her. She was very thankful for the ideas and Buckley warmed up to her after only a couple visits. I didn't have to worry while on vacation because she was very communicative. I felt like they were in such good hands. Would definitely recommend her and will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life and have loved the whole experience! Outside of my own family I have watched friends and families pets as well. I am comfortable with walking, feeding, administering meds, and just hanging out with a pet! Look forward to meeting you. Pet care is part of my regular routine. I plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins so pets receive consistent care and attention. I make sure I’m available throughout the day and never rush visits, especially during house sitting or overnight stays. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and lots of attention. I keep pets safe and comfortable, monitor their well-being, and treat my clients’ homes with respect. I also send regular updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: I just really love dogs and furry animals! No special skills. I genuinely believe us humans need to be our pets best advocators in every aspect. College student who misses her pups back home. I am a full time student at Ohio State. Currently I am not very restricted as I have 1-2 classes a day, besides wednesdays I have 4. I am currently recovering from an injury so I have just been able to walk and cannot do any running for the time being. Expect me to be unavailable for holidays, late December + early January as I will be out of state back home. Thank you for your understanding. I give them lots of love!! I prefer if my clients could give me more instructions than less because I would hate to disrupt on any routine the owner and/or pet have. Overall, I’ll follow the directions you provide with a big serving of doggy love (unless said otherwise in instructions haha).
“Paige is wonderful! She has looked after my cat for years now and always does a great job. She somehow gets my very shy cat to want to come out from under the bed, which is a feat in itself. She is very communicative, reliable, and has always treated my home with respect. Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve been walking with another app, and I absolutely love it! I have a few regular clients I see, but I would love to add a few more fur babies to my daily agenda :) I’m currently saving for my wedding, and I’m a stay at home mom, so every dollar is greatly appreciated! :) I promise your babies are in great hands. I’m currently a stay at home, with more than enough time on my hands! Honestly taking care of the fur babies brings me so much joy, while I can still enjoy the freedoms of not having a “9-5” job. I’m very thankful for each and every opportunity’ The most safe!!! I’m a mom and I have eyes like a hawk! They are in great hands. I truly take a lot of pride in the work that I do, and I know each and every fur baby is irreplaceable and I treat them as such :)
About: I think what sets me apart is that I really care about making pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I know every pet is different, so I’m happy to follow their normal routine and give them whatever attention or space they need. I’m patient with younger pets who may need extra supervision, playtime, or help getting into a routine, and I’m also comfortable giving senior pets the slower pace and extra attention they may need. I’m responsible, dependable, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. My goal is for both the pet and their owner to feel comfortable and confident while they’re apart. Pet care fits really well into my routine because I work part-time and I’m an online graduate student, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m able to work pet care into my day for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins without having to rush. I also enjoy having a reason to step away from schoolwork and spend time with animals, so pet sitting is something I genuinely look forward to. I’m happy to care for pets in my home or in a client’s home, depending on what works best for the pet and their owner. I always make sure pets have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, and time for walks or play. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make an effort to keep the pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’ll also follow any specific instructions the owner provides so their pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.
“We have a temperamental little guy and so leaving him behind while we travel is always a bit of a headache. Austin put all our worries to rest - he somehow managed to get Leo to come out of his hiding spots and also communicated with us throughout their visits together. Austin sent us daily photos which made being away so much easier! 10/10 would recommend Austin to anyone who is looking for special care for a high maintenance cat!”
About: All of my dog care experience has been stay at home dog sitting and volunteer work at a dog shelter. Because I work at a dog shelter, I know many of the basic techniques and rules of dog care such as grooming, clean up, body language of dogs, and taking care of dogs that may have been abused or experienced trauma in the past. I have a 2 year old french bull dog that I love. Mr. Bean brings excitement, adventure, and love to my everyday life. I am especially good at taking care of senior pets as they are my favorite to support in petsitting capacities. I am a graduate student that spends a lot of time reading, writing, and hanging out at home. Because of this, I am very flexible and can fit pet care in ways someone with a 9-5 could not. I am available in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings during the week and frequently on the weekend. I care for other's pets the way I care for my own - with patience and love. As a graduate student and researcher, I am quick to problem solve and critically think about creative solutions in different scenarios.
About: I grew up in a home with multiple dogs and a of couple cats! I have extensive experience caring for, entertaining and traveling with pets and I am adaptable to all your pets’ needs. Whether it’s matching a high energy level by playing catch in a park or staying at home and hanging out, I want your little family member to have a welcoming and safe environment at all times. I also provide photo or video check-ins upon request and your pet will have supervision at all times in our sunny, cozy, smoke-free home. I am currently working on a flex schedule: partly from home and partly from the office, however I live with a full-time at-home female professional who is more than open to keeping an eye out on your pet for the 4-5 hours I am not at home. If this is an issue, I am flexible so we can discuss scheduling! I live in an apartment surrounded by green space and I have an active lifestyle otherwise, so your pet can expect to be taken on comfortable walks with food and water (and doggy bags, of course!) before heading back home to an airy and light-filled apartment with all of their favorite toys.

Josh has went above and beyond to accommodate my very shy dog. He has went out of his way during his own lunches to make extra drop-in visits to continue to build a relationship with my boy. He has great communication skills and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for a house visit or stay. Thank you!!
Autumn is always amazing with my sensitive dog! It means so much to me to have someone I can trust. My dog takes a while to trust people, but she loves Autumn and I’m so grateful to have someone she trusts to care for her! Autumn is knowledgeable and experienced in handling my large bully x mastiff mix safely and gently which makes it easier to relax knowing she’s in great hands. Thank you!
Taylor was absolutely fantastic while caring for my dogs, Mango and Mars. From the moment she arrived, it was clear how comfortable and happy they felt around her. She handled their different personalities with ease—Mango’s playful energy and Mars’s more relaxed vibe—and made sure each of them got exactly the kind of attention they needed. Taylor kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. I could tell she wasn’t just “watching” them; she was genuinely engaged, patient, and caring. When I returned, both dogs were calm, content, and clearly well‑loved. I highly recommend Taylor to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and truly wonderful dog sitter. Mango and Mars adore her, and so do I.
Needed someone last minute to drop in on my girl this weekend, and Merri came to the rescue! She was great! Kept me informed and sent pictures throughtout the visit. It was very reassuring to know my pup was going to get out some cooped up energy while I was working. Thank you so much! I will definitely be keeping you in mind if I ever need someone for her again! And would definitely recommend her to others.
Jovonna took care of my new puppy the first couple of months of her life while I was working. She was reliable and her communication was excellent. She helped me out on one occasion when my other sitter was unavailable at the last minute. She really helped me to feel confident leaving my young puppy home when I went to work. I can't thank her enough and hope to see her again for the occasional pet sitting need. I highly recommend Jovonna.
Aaron has been wonderful with Milo both when I’m home and while I’ve been out of town. My dog isn’t always easy to work with, but Aaron handled him with patience and skill. He’s reliable, always on time, and truly cares. I’m really grateful to have found him and to have his help whenever I need it.

Before booking, confirm:

- 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bexley choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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 .
