“Sydney was wonderful with our sweet kitty! She was reliable, communicative and even brought a cat toy to her visits! We will definitely reach out to Sydney to help with our cat in the future.”
About: I have many years of experience with all types of dogs. From tiny chihuahuas to great danes! I live in a very dog friendly community and I understand puppies and the importance of their training needs. I am willing to exercise/run your dog if you need me to! I am also experienced with deaf dogs. I know it’s a tough time to get your dog outside for a walk and that’s where I come in. I currently am only accepting dog walks but I’m open to boarding if needed, just message me! I have two mixed breed pups named Teddy and Rex. Can’t wait to meet your pup! I take care of my pets 24-7! I know how important they are to a family. I currently only work part time so I have lots of time to spend with your four legged family members if you need me to! We treat our dogs like family and I would do the same for yours. We have a fenced yard that has room to run around. No dogs on the bed but everywhere else is free reign.
About: Hello! I’m Lauren and am ready to help take care of your furry friend when you most need it! I grew up with a shih-poo helping take care of him for 16 years! I have pet sat for friends and neighbors before which included regular feeds, walking, and playing with their pets. I am a huge dog lover and am looking to get a dog of my own in the near future (once we have a bigger yard) to give them the best life possible! I appreciate you reading my profile! Right now, I am a teacher on summer break looking to make some extra money while doing something I love! I am very flexible the next two months (pretty much free all weekdays anytime and most weekends). Would love to continue this throughout the year as well. When taking care of your pet it is crucial to know specific likes, dislikes and habits as I want your pet to be most comfortable with myself. A leash while walking is always a must, playing with your pet both indoors and outdoors (weather permitting) is also a must! I will make sure to keep that water bowl full and food fed at correct times.
“Alexis was able to come check on our cat last-minute when we couldn’t find anyone else. She went above & beyond and we would happily work with her again in the future.”
“Emma was amazing with my cat, Toast! She was communicative, reliable, and even stayed extra some nights to give him more cuddles and attention. I felt completely comfortable trusting her with my home and pet, and I'd definitely recommend her to others.”
“Isabella and Austin were great. Our dog Virgie is a shelter dog and is very protective of our home. They sent great pics of them petting and feeding her! She seemed super happy and we could not be happier with the service! We will use them again.”
“We found Sydnee and are so glad we did. You can tell she absolutely loves animals. We left our 3 siamese in her care and she went above and beyond. We came come to 3 happy kitties 😸 💕”
About: I have lifelong experience, caring for dogs and cats, including volunteering at an animal shelter, where I helped with feeding, cleaning, walking dogs, and basic care. I currently care for two cats at home. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine, as I currently care for two cats at home. I handle feeding, litter, box, maintenance, playtime, and general care every day. I work a full-time job from Monday-Friday, so during the week, I can only provide care before and after work. On weekends I can accommodate visits, drop-ins, or overnight care as needed. I care for pets by following the owner's instructions closely and maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. For cats, I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, and get attention and playtime based on their comfort level. For dogs, I ensure they are fed, walked as needed, and given exercise and companionship. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free while providing updates to the owner during visits.
“Haleigh did such a great job with our energetic dog! She was prompt, thorough with her Rover card responses, and went above and beyond in caring for Turner! Would absolutely book again!”
“Ellen did an excellent job dropping by to take care of my two kitties. She was very responsive and did everything I asked for them. Would definitely have her cat sit again!”
About: I’ve grown up around many animals (cats, dogs, bunnies, fish, hamsters, etc) and have gained much experience throughout the years. I am comfortable walking, feeding, playing and keeping your pet happy and safe while you’re away. I understand every pet is different so I am here to follow your instructions to give your pet the same love I give my own. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment. During the week I am able to come between the hours of 8:30am to 6:00pm. On the weekend I’m available between the hours of 11:00am to 4:00pm. I am happy to work with your pets routine and discuss specific scheduling needs in advance. When caring for your pet inside your home I will make sure to follow their normal routine and give them plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I will follow all directions for feeding, medication, and care provided. I’ll also treat your home with respect and keep you updated on your pets with messages and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life, and I currently take care of my senior Maltipoo. I’ve been dog-sitting and taking care of other people’s pets since I was a teenager. I currently only work a few days a week, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! Any stop in or walk will be treated as if they were my own pet. I truly just love animals, especially dogs, and I love getting to know their different personalities. Exercise and play time are so important for dogs, and I’m happy to help out with that!!
About: I have 12 years of combined experience as a volunteer dog caretaker, as well as a former staff member, at a local non-profit animal shelter. My work with the shelter has allowed me to provide care for many animals and help match them with the best adopters. I am also Fear Free certified and understand the importance of helping animals feel at ease. Most of all, as a dog mom myself, I understand the need for a reliable, punctual, and kind caregiver for all of our pets. I am currently volunteering at my local animal shelter and caring for my own senior dog Cuddles at home. Most of my days are free and I am hoping to provide pet services as a part time job. I will follow instructions given by my client in regards to the care of their pet in their home. When walking dogs, the appropriate harness and leash will always be used and care will be taken to ensure the dog's comfort and safety at all times. I believe that it is very important for dogs to be given the time stop and sniff at their leisure and not be rushed, as the walk is for their enrichment and enjoyment.

I anticipating just helping other pet owners a few times a week that are very close to my home. Because of my life long pet ownership, If pets have special instructions or needs I am pretty proficient at giving medicine, feedings or following specific instructions. I will walk doggies in all type of bad or inclement weather. I prefer to stay just in Dublin or Hilliard area.

“Gwen took fantastic care of our cat when we were away for a two-week long trip. I am always nervous about leaving my pet for so long, but with Gwen’s help I knew he was not only being cared for, but nurtured as well. Gwen came over every day to make sure Rue had company, and I am grateful I got to enjoy my trip knowing he was well looked after. Gwen is friendly, has great communication, and sends photos every day. She even left a very thoughtful gift at the end of her last visit. I would/will 1000% book with Gwen again, and you should too!!”
About: I have been around pets since I was born, I was raised taking care of horses, cats, dogs, squirrels, rabbits, hamsters, lizards, and fish. I have trained all of our dogs, we mainly had Huskies and Yorkies. I now own a Min Pin, Golden Retriever, Russian Blue, and a Siamese. I have experience in volunteering at animals shelters and kennels along with pet sitting family members pets. Currently I work from home and have the ability to create and control my schedule. This allows me to have as much time as possible with my furry family. At home I do not have a fenced in yard and I live on 3 acres. Having so much land allows me to properly exercise my dogs. I take my dogs out on a leash and give them daily walks, take them on hikes around my property, and play ball multiple times a day. In clients homes, if no back yard, I will keep them on leash outside at all times.

Bonnie was very attentive to Jack. He takes a while to warm up but she spent the time to get to know him and he had a great week. She was consistent with her updates & photo reports allowing us to know he was being well taken care of. Thank you so much Bonnie for allowing us to enjoy our time away! And I know Jack appreciated all the love too😀.
Ashley was fantastic with our three older dogs over the long weekend! Taking care of senior pups can be a lot to manage, but she handled everything with incredible patience and professionalism. Her communication was great, and we returned home to happy, well-cared-for dogs. We’re so grateful to have found such a reliable, compassionate sitter and would definitely book Ashley again!
Laci is an awesome sitter! She was super attentive to my dogs need and made me feel at ease knowing that my fur baby was in the best hands. It’s very clear that she takes her job very seriously and I truly appreciate how much she communicates and followed our regular routine and training schedule.

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 Dublin 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the , 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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
