About: I had a dog growing up since I was a kid. I have always taken care of my neighbor's pets and want to continue taking care of your furry friends. I am currently a Physician assistant student looking for a flexible job and rover sounded like a perfect fit. I love being around animals and open to all task's rover offers. I live in a pet friendly apartment that has a large outdoor space and trails. I am open to driving to your location and taking care in your home as well.
About: I’ve had rescue dogs my whole adult life, 3lbs to 120lbs. My pets are my world and I will treat your pets how I’d want mine treated. I am a full time nurse and work 3/12hr shifts weekly overnight so I’m available for walks/play in the mornings and throughout the day. I am studying dog grooming also so that I can start my own business and add that as a service provided. Walking, playing, bathing, feeding, snuggling etc. are services I can provide to keep your pets comfortable in your absence…they will be excited to see you when you return but will have been loved well while you were gone.
About: I love watching dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages! I have experience taking care of my own dog, as well as frequently boarding family and friends dogs at my house when they are out of town or for stop in visits. I currently work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, and live close enough to come home during lunch to let the dogs out for a bit during the three middle weekdays. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly, playful pup to keep your dog company while you are out of town. For boarding clients, I will only take dogs that are comfortable around other dogs (for your pups safety and my own!). For in-home care, I strive to do the best I can making your dog comfortable with me during our time together. I will maximize time during visits for play/walk/leisurely time outside depending on owners preference.
“Britany was wonderful. She was available very last minute and took good care of our 3 cats and was even willing to feed a community cat that shows up. We would hire her again if needed.”
About: Professional companion care at a great price for those that value their animals! I am a very clean and cut healthcare professional that loves to care for animals on the side, your dogs and cats will come home happy and healthy. I work part time in healthcare, if the time you need is during one of my workdays, I may have to reject the booking depending on what it is. Other than that, pet care fits well into my life. I have a fenced yard and one dog & one cat of my own. I also have a number of large dog parks nearby, as well as walking paths to go to.
“Elisa has been so patient and kind with my dog who has some separation anxiety and can be a little bit of a handful! She gets back to me about availability quickly and is communicative while she's with my dog, sending lots of updates and pictures! I always worry when I’m away from my pet but I feel that he is totally safe and happy in her care and I plan to continue using her for drop-in visits whenever she is available. I highly recommend Elisa if you want someone who is professional, kind, prompt, and sweet to your fur baby!”
About: I have been taking care of pets for about 8 years now. Whether it be my own dog or my friends dogs, I provide high quality care to each pet I care for. In addition, I potty trained and crate trained my dog, as well as taught her all her fun tricks! I am in college and will be available to care for your pets throughout most of my days due to my classes being spaced out throughout the week. I place the utmost importance not only on pet care but also on respecting pet owners and their instructions. I aim to provide high quality care to each and every pet so that they are safe, healthy, comfortable and happy!
About: Hi, I'm a professional dog trainer. I can offer a safe and enriching environment to feel like home away from home for your dog. You can guarantee in my care your loved one will get the best quality experience. I work from home. So I'm really open any day that works for you. I prefer clear communication and respect for boundaries regarding my time and availability. As always you can message me if you have any questions! I have a fully fenced yard. Also, my pups are here to keep your dog company. We do a lot of practice with door safety and waiting for food.
About: Hi! My name is Andrea and I’d love to hang with your pup! My preference is to house sit for you as I’m currently in a condo that might limit my availability to watch your fur baby in my home, but I’m open to discussing! I work remote, so my job allows me to work anywhere. It’s a win/win for you and me. If I go anywhere, I won’t be gone long or I’ll take them with me. I’ve had dogs in my family for all of my life. I had my own baby for almost 15 years and had to say goodbye a couple years ago (he’s pictured in the red wagon on my profile). I’d love to have another dog, but I haven’t found the right one yet. So in the meantime, I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family and found that I love it! I love all dogs and will love your furbaby as my own! I’m flixible and available last minute most of the time! My schedule is flexible. Because I work remote/from home, we’ll have plenty of play time. It also means less alone time and/or kennel time for your pup. I don’t have an enclosed yard, but I enjoy taking breaks from work to go for walks. And I promise your pup won’t be ignored. I can crate if needed, but I’d much rather take them for a ride in my car if I have to go anywhere.
About: Rescue and veterinary experience. Skilled with seniors, special needs, and neonates. Comfortable giving medications and injections. Attentive, patient, and focused on keeping pets safe, clean, and stress-free. I currently work part-time in the veterinary field (two days per week), giving me plenty of availability to care for your pets. I also have extended two-hour lunch breaks, allowing me to return home and check in on them throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine in their home, including feeding, play, walks, and meds. I provide calm care, close monitoring, and regular updates to owners.
About: I’ve grown up with a plethora of animals. I’ve wanted to volunteer at the humane society since i was young. I worked at pet land as a kennel tech for roughly 6 months and owned ferrets, birds, cats, and dogs. I’m currently a senior in high school saving up for college: I get out early from school and entirely free from weekends. During the week evening visits are all i’d be available for. Weekends whenever is needed. I have experienced with all kinds of animals. Troublesome dogs to cats, even ferrets and birds. So any accommodation of worry that you need i can handle.
About: I’ve had at least one dog in my home my whole life, and I’ve been involved in training all of my pets. Friends have relied on me to dog-sit for them for long periods of time away. I have experience caring for <8wk old puppies I’m a second year college student and pet care is my part-time job. My schedule is very flexible as I do my schoolwork from home. I provide as much care as the pet needs and I take great care in making sure your pet feels safe around me. If the pet isn’t a people person, I’m more than happy to simply meet their needs and give them their space. On the other hand, I also very much enjoy pets that need lots of play and lovings!
“Morgan is so great with the dogs! They just love to see her! And she is great with responding and communicates daily with how they are doing. I am confident that my pups receive great care when we are out of town.”
About: I've owned dogs all of my life and can provide excellent care of your dogs. They will get plenty of love and play time as well. I currently work from home and will be able to give your dogs plenty of attention. They will fit right in with us in our home. My dog is allowed to go outside on the leash because he is old and does not go very far anymore, but I can keep your pets on a leash while in my care. I can also crate your dog.
About: i’ve had dogs as long as i can remember. i currently have a pit/boxer and a GSD. training the gsd to be my service dog. i am excited to work with you and your four legged family member(s). dogs are family to me. weekend workers i am here for you. late evenings may be arranged as well. drop in visits and/or walks will be around your neighborhood unless i notify you or you request in advance for a certain location you prefer. i will also carry treats with me. let me know if there are treats your dog is allergic to.
About: I’ve had my first dog( Bandit) for 10 years. Since I was 9, I would take care of him on the daily. I would be the one to bathe, feed, play with him, and walk him. My extended family even trusted me to care for their pets while they’ve been away. I also own many different kinds of pets other than dogs and cats, so animal care is something I have adapted to. For the past two years, I have had experience in intensive dog training and I am educated in dog behavior. I attend The Ohio State University studying Biology in order to become a Veterinarian. Not only do i need to earn a bachelor’s degree to get into vet school, but i also need hours of experience. To achieve that, I have volunteered at ASPCA (animal rescue organization) to care for the many animals in need. While there, I learned how to care for animals that have been in rough situations. I am able to manage dogs that are twice my size. As a crazy animal lover, I'd love to meet your pets! As of right now , I am available all day everyday to care for my own pets and yours too! I work from home, so pet care is something I’m able to do on the side. At home, I just got a fenced yard installed, but I take my pets out on walks. They are under my super vision 24/7. If my client has a fenced yard, I will happily take them outside as needed and provide playtime.
“Yolena was incredibly helpful and left robust notes at the end of her visit that left me feeling sure that my baby was well-taken care of. She communicated well and even helped with mail without being asked. Would highly recommend Yolena to any pet parent!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Centerville is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 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 November 2026, there are 1,477 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Centerville. 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.
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 Centerville 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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 Centerville 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 Centerville. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
