About: I have had a dog ever since I was born, and am now 23 years old! I helped train my newest dog, so I have a lot of experience in puppy training. My last dog unfortunately had to have her leg amputated when she got older, so I also have experience with disabled dogs. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter for years, so I am good with all kinds of dogs- big and small, anxious and energetic, etc. Whenever one of my friends is out of town, I am their go-to pet sitter. I pet sit for a lot of my friend’s cats, so while I’ve never had one, I know how to take care of them. My dog, Rosie, is my entire world, so I know how important your pets are to you! I will treat them as if they are my own :). I do have a full-time job, but it is very flexible. I am able to leave during the day if needed for your pet! My nights are always free too, so I am able to house-sit. Your pet will be my #1 priority in my routine! I will keep your pet safe with my life! I will ensure they are on a leash when outside and make sure they are comfortable and getting their exercise in. Inside, I love to play with them! I will ensure no doors are left open so they can’t slip outside to maintain their safety. But I will make sure they are having fun while inside!

Pat was a lifesaver! We have a senior chihuahua with special needs who is very difficult to work with to say the least. Pat was very patient, kind, and understanding of her needs. She showed up every day on time and gave our little fur baby lots of love. Pat is like one of the family and we will be calling her in the future!

Our furry friends love Scott! His patience and gentle approach helps even our feisty orange guy warm up to the unfamiliar house guest. We have been genuinely delighted and surprised by how well our buddies have embraced their new friend. Thank you, Scott, for keeping our four-legged friends entertained and cared for while we’re away.

Ann was absolutely wonderful with my puppy! Since she’s still so young, she requires a little extra care, attention, and patience, and Ann went above and beyond to make sure she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the love and attention Ann gave her, and I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for her services.

About: Hi! My name is Adriana, and I’ve always had a deep love for cats. A while ago, I adopted a sweet mama cat and her adorable kittens, and they’ve truly become the best part of my life. Watching them grow, play, and show their unique personalities has been such a special experience. Caring for them taught me patience, gentleness, and how much love a cat can bring into your home. I treat every cat I care for with the same affection and attention, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Your kitty will be cared for just like one of my own! 💛🐾 I have a flexible schedule and am available full-time to care for your pets. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cozy cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive all the attention and love they need while you’re away. 🐾💛 When I come to your home, you can always count on me to treat it with respect and care just like I treat your pets. I understand how important it is to feel safe and comfortable when someone enters your space, so I always make sure to follow your instructions carefully and keep everything just as you left it. Your pets’ safety and happiness are my top priority. You can trust that I’ll care for them (and your home) with the same love and responsibility I give to my own. 🐾💛

I can't reccomend Taylor enough! She took such good care of my cats and lizard while we were on vacation for a week. We have a very shy and standoffish cat and it was clear to me that Taylor made them all feel so safe and comfortable based on how willing the cats were to let her snap pics of them every day - shes a great photographer too! Great communication, punctual, flexible (thank you again for feeding and keeping an eye on our bearded dragon!), and just all around a wonderful sitter who we will absolutely be booking with again. I would trust her in my home and with my pets any day. Thank you Taylor!

Ariel did great with our dog and our cat! This was our first time having someone drop in for our pets—and I’m sold thanks to Ariel. I got lots of pics and our animals clearly enjoyed her visits. I would definitely invite her back when the need arises—or maybe when Milo wants to play with a toy in the backyard with her!!

Natalia was such an amazing and experienced cat sitter! Our first time using Rover and we really lucked out with her. Our kitty warmed up to her immediately and it was clear Natalia had a warm and caring presence. She was very prompt on her visits and sending photo updates. Everything went perfectly thanks to her. Will be booking again!! 💕🫶💕

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, and I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. ❤️ Whether your pup needs a good walk, your cat needs some company while you’re away, or your pet needs a comfortable place to stay, I’m here to provide dependable, loving care. 🐶 Dog Walking: Safe, enjoyable walks tailored to your dog’s energy and needs. 🏡 In-Home Boarding: A comfortable, loving home environment where your pet can feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away. 🐾 Drop-In Visits: I’ll stop by to check on your pets, give them attention and playtime, provide fresh food and water, and make sure they’re doing well. 🐱 Cat Care: I’m happy to care for your cats by feeding them, refreshing their water, cleaning up after them, changing litter, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I understand that leaving your pets with someone else requires trust. My goal is to give you peace of mind while giving your pets the attention, consistency, and affection they deserve. I’d love the opportunity to become your pet’s trusted sitter, walker, and second home. 🐾❤️ 10 years of experience. Lots of love. One happy pet at a time. I work part-time from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available for pet care throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding, litter care, and plenty of quality time with your pets while you’re away. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as comfortable and familiar as possible. I follow your instructions closely, provide plenty of love and attention, and make sure they have fresh food, water, clean spaces, and anything else they need. I also respect your home as if it were my own, leaving everything clean, secure, and just as I found it. I provide a comfortable, home-like environment where dogs can feel safe, loved, and included. I have four cats, so dogs staying with me may be around other animals, and they’ll also have access to small children in the home. My home has a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor time, plus plenty of opportunities for walks and fresh air. For pups who enjoy an adventure, I’m also happy to include supervised car rides and outings when appropriate.

About: From the time I was old enough to ask “can we keep him” I’ve always taken care of my best friends. From walking them 3 miles to the vet (before I was old enough to drive) to daily feedings, bathing, grooming and of course, treats! While I spoil the pets, I’m always sure to give them the highest grade food and treats. I believe they deserve the best. Diet and exercise are important. A daily regiment of “fetch” is highly recommended by Duke, the black lab! I would love to take care of your best friend and ensure he/she is given the highest quality of care while keeping Duke company (Duke plays well with others.) I’ve been working from home for the last seven years. I always have time to make sure the water bowls are full and play time is given. Who says you can’t work from the patio while throwing a ball for fetch? Duke and I have a great fenced in yard for plenty of play time and potty breaks. All vegetation is harmless for pets. Grass is well groomed and “yard bombs” removed daily (or as often as required).

About: I have years of hands-on pet care experience and have grown up around animals. I’m reliable, attentive, and focused on keeping pets comfortable, happy, and safe while their owners are away. I’m currently not working, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time to walk, play, and give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I take safety and trust very seriously. I follow routines carefully, keep pets supervised, and make sure they feel comfortable and secure in a clean, calm environment at all times.

Paige was wonderful! She was very responsive and, since this was our first time using the app, she walked us through the whole process and made everything so easy. She was reliable, on time, and kept us updated with pictures of our dogs looking happy and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. We are so thankful for Paige and would highly recommend her!

Tamara did a fantastic job taking care of our two dogs for a week of drop-in visits. Our dogs loved her and she clearly has a great sense of how to connect with dogs and other animals. She is incredibly conscientious, always on time, does a great write-up of each visit and takes lots of fantastic pictures too. She was also so flexible and kind as we had a huge storm hit that knocked out power for two days; she was great about rescheduling promptly due to the changes in our schedule that resulted. I can highly recommend Tamara without reservation.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Blacklick

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Blacklick on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 2,584 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Blacklick. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Blacklick stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Blacklick 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.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Blacklick with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Blacklick. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
