“My pitty was very comfortable with Maggie and her sweet dog Willow while dog sitting in my house for 4 nights. I received daily photos and updates of their fun walks and snuggle time on the couch. We will definitely be using Maggie again in the future! She is a dog lover through and through. Plus, the house was spotless upon my return.”
“Madeline stayed with my babies over night which I much appreciated it. She sent pictures daily of them. The 1st day with them she didn;t leave which made them feel secure. Felt like they were loved and taken care of since have 2 puppy mill moms and 3 cats which think Zoey maybe slept with her since the room she slept in Zoey has now claimed for her room.”
“Danielle took great care care of Shadow while we were busy. Shadow didn't seem to mind seeing her again after meeting her for the first time. We are so thankful she was able to feed him dinner & take him out for a short walk to break up his day before we got home. Loved her updates and photos of our boy hanging out with her. She's truly a great sitter to hire for your pet.”
“Sophia was absolutely incredible! Not only was she attentive, communicated well, responsible and friendly but she went above and beyond in every way imaginable. I would highly recommend her and we will be using her often to watch our puppies”
“Tracey was wonderful. She kept us up to date with plenty of pictures and videos of both our 5 month old puppy and cat. She was very communicative throughout the entire process. Would recommend!”
“Holly was very responsive and instantly won over our sometimes nervous guy. The face that he ate shortly after her arrival says everything to me - he’s a great judge of character! She gave regular updates and we’d be happy to have her again.”
“Emily is an absolute gem of a dog sitter!! I was out of town for 6 days traveling and my Timber girl had the time of her life while I was gone. Emily gave me updates in the morning and night with lots of pictures, videos, and a general layout of their day. You can really tell that she loves animals and treated my dog as her own. For a little added touch she even left a note for me to come back home to, how sweet!!”
About: Hi! My name is Tiana, and I’m 23 years old. I’m currently studying Pre-Veterinary Animal Sciences at The Ohio State University and working toward my bachelor’s degree. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have experience caring for all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, and even farm animals! I also have previous experience working in a veterinary clinic, so I’m comfortable administering oral medications and caring for pets who may be older, anxious, or have extra needs. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. I always do my best to follow each pet’s normal routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! As of august 25th I will be back fulltime at the ohio state university. I have classes on campus from 8am-3pm. I offer pet care for morning, late afternoon, and evening, only on WEEKDAYS. However on WEEKENDS, HOLIDAYS, and LONG WEEKENDS, I am available for 24/7 care! I will send texts, pictures, and videos of all activities that your pet and I will do. From playing together in your living room to even snagging a pic of potty time, I’ll make sure that you know your pet is being cared for and safe. I will also give daily updates and tell you what we did for that day!
“Grace was wonderful taking care of Sully! We had absolute peace of mind when we were out of the country. She provided daily photo updates and gave Sully all the love. I definitely recommend Grace for all of your pet & house sitting needs!”
“Jennifer did a phenomenal job with our quite nervous, shy Corgi. Our dog became comfortable with her on the first visit and she followed all instructions explicitly. I would definitely recommend her and will use her services again. She seems to really enjoy caring for animals and is very conscientious.”
“Rebecca did an amazing job with our very reactive pup! Our dog is very sweet with humans but is very reactive towards other dogs, making walking her understandably challenging. Rebecca watched her for a week and had no issues during this time. Would definitely recommend!”
About: Hi! I’ve taken care of dogs and house sit since 10 years old, and also have experience with horses/fostering animals. I also learned about breed temperaments through 4-H as a teenager ! Hello! How do you care for pets in your home and/or your client's home? This will vary depending on which service you offer. Thank you. Hello!

“Sadie was wonderful! Great with communication and pics of dogs. The best part was coming home to happy dogs that were well cared for and she left our house very tidy too.”
“Amber was amazing! She stayed with our for babies while we were away on vacation. She did a great job watching them and giving them all of their medications. We would definitely use her again!”
“Wow! Sophie was responsive, responsible, and so so kind. We have a pup who was recently diagnosed with a chronic illness that we are still trying to figure out. Sophie was able to jump right in so we could still go on our long-planned vacation. I was nervous about leaving our pup with another person, but WOW! Sophie kept me updated while still allowing me to have time away. She was absolutely wonderful with our pup. It feels like a relief to know that there are people like Sophie who will love your pup and care for them as much as you do!”
“Kora was wonderful. She was very communicative and our boys (two dogs and a cat) were all very well cared for. I would absolutely ask Kora back and highly recommend her to anyone else.”
“Zach did a great job staying at our place and taking care of Rebel, Bella, and Lilly. He sent daily picture updates, was quick to respond, and took great care of everyone. We know we can always count on Zach and would definitely recommend him!”
“Nafawna is wonderful. She took care of our dog, four cats, and our home for a week. There was zero stress while we were away. This is the third time she helped us. I would definitely recommend her.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dublin
This was our first time with Danielle and she was wonderful. The dogs always looked happy in the pictures she sent us and were definitely well cared for while we were gone. She easily managed giving our dog with Addison's disease her oral medication through a syringe which is not as easy as it sounds. We highly recommend Danielle.
Jen was outstanding with Penny. She came to meet her ahead of time to learn her habits. The stay went well, good communication and lots of pics. She is very calm and gentle. Jen stayed at my house and was the perfect guest giving Penny great attention. Highly recommend.
Thea was great! She spent four days with our 3.5 month old puppy and 17 yo cat and both were wonderfully cared for… and likely more spoiled with attention and cuddles than when we are home! She was great at communicating and sharing pictures/ updates and I never once had to worry about our pets while we were away. We came home to a clean house and washed sheets, to boot! We will definitely request Thea again if we need a pet sitter. Highly recommend!
We have a very anxious dog but after we were gone for a day I knew I didn’t have to worry. Olivia was always in touch with me and sent many pictures. She has just the right demeanor for anxious dogs and Phoebe took to her quickly. Giving meds and dealing with Phoebe’s different foods and odd schedule was not a problem for Olivia. The house was left clean and she even cleaned the bathroom! Would use her again when she’s not in school. We were gone 5 days and all was well when we came back. Thanks Olivia!
Hayley is an excellent dog sitter and I would definitely recommend her. She is especially qualified with her degrees in zoology and her training and work experience as a dog trainer at Petsmart. She watched my dog Birdie for 5 days, staying overnight and did a great job of caring for, giving meds to, walking, and even training my dog. Thanks Hayley.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Dublin walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Dublin maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!

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.
