“Dawn did a good job with my dogs. She was available on last minute notice when my flight home cancelled, she kept me updated on how the dogs were doing, and she sent me a picture of them in the back yard. I will use her again.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that caring for animals is more than just a hobby for me it’s something I have professional experience with and truly love. I currently work at a dog and cat daycare facility, where I care for pets of all ages and personalities, including puppies, kittens, and senior dogs. I also have experience administering medications and providing extra care for senior pets and animals with special needs. I previously interned at a cat veterinary clinic for a year, which gave me valuable experience with cats and helped me learn how to recognize changes in behavior and health. I am also CPR certified in both dogs and cats, so your pets’ safety is always one of my top priorities. I have experience with many other animals as well, including guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, fish, etc. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, nervous and needs patience, or older and needs a little extra care, I’m comfortable adjusting to their individual needs. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away! I have school in the mornings and sometimes work in the afternoons, so I have flexibility throughout my week to provide pet care. I’m able to plan my schedule around your pet’s needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I’m especially available for walks, drop-ins, and care during the times I’m not in class or at work. I provide care in my clients’ homes, where I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment and maintaining their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any other special needs. I’m respectful of your home and make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away.
About: I’m very good with animals, I have 5 pets of my own including cats and dogs and I also just love animals and want to be around them as much as I can! Right now I’m completely free for the summer and so I would be available to come and take care of them and am even willing to stay over nights but I still live at home so it would have to be at a clients house. I love to play with pets, cuddle or anything else that the specific pet might need. I’m pretty flexible and I’ve dealt with the gross stuff so that doesn’t bother me either.
“Savannah was great, took care of our cat while we were on vacation. We didn't have to worry about Bella while away and that makes for a better time. We will definitely use her again. Thanks Savannah!”
“Karen was excellent with Luna! She was patient, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain her approach to earning Luna’s trust. During just one drop-in, Luna already showed noticeable progress in warming up to her. I really appreciated Karen’s expertise and the helpful guidance she shared with me as well.”
“Chloe did an amazing job with Niko and Nala. She sent plenty of pictures, took them on walks and gave them plenty of attention. By the end of the night both dogs were passed out. We will definitely be using Chloe again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I dog sit for my aunt all of the time and I care for my sisters dogs often. She has a full bred German Shepherd and an Australian Shepherd Mix. I am very dependable and will take great care of your pet! I’m not working anywhere at the moment, I am a full time nursing student. I have classes two times a week ( Mondays and Wednesdays) and I have clinical once a week currently. I live in a condominium community; there isn’t a yard per say however there is plenty of space to walk your dog outside in the fresh air!
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I grew up in a house hold that fostered all different kinds of dogs at all ages of life. I currently have a senior lab and 2 cats at home! I am a new mom who is now working part time to be with my baby so I am looking to fill some of those hours! The perfect amount of time to get some walks in or go check in on your fur babies! I am very adaptable to any special needs your pets have. I have 2 senior animals at home, one with diabetes, so I have lots of experience with the extra steps that are needed with some animals.
“Archie hit it off with Gregory immediately and was rewarded with visits that were like clockwork. Gregory is a true dog lover and gave Archie that personal attention our dog needed to make sure both his physical and emotional needs were taken care of. Knowing Gregory was looking in on our pup made our vacation much more carefree.”
About: I am a dog-loving household excited to welcome your dog into our home. Your furry friend will be treated like family, enjoying plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship with our friendly dogs in a safe, caring, and comfortable environment. I work from home, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. Our three responsible teenagers love dogs and enjoy playing, cuddling, and helping provide loving care to every furry guest who stays with us. Our pet-friendly home provides a safe, welcoming environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised play, a pool, and a quiet, walkable neighborhood perfect for daily exercise, potty breaks, and relaxing strolls to keep your dog happy and comfortable.
“Sarah was so wonderful with our blind dog, Ruthie. She was patient and helped her with the schedule she’s used to. Sarah was great at communicating with us and was flexible when our plans changed a little last minute. We’d definitely book her again.”
“Allie did a great job taking care of my cat! She was great about communicating and keeping me informed. My cat warmed right up to her and I was very happy with his care!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I can remember, began working with them in my teens, and am excited to continue building connections and care for pets in my community. I have a flexible work schedule and enjoy being productive and active in my free time. I’m here to help in any way I can! Safety and trust are paramount to me. Communication with owners ensures my safety, as well as your furry family member’s. Always willing to answer any questions or concerns!
About: I have a great love for animals and have been taking care of dogs for 14 years. I am currently a cat mom, but in the past I have had up to 4 animals at the same time, so I am experienced with caring for many animals at once. Also, I have experience sitting small rodents and some reptiles. I am a quick learner and love all pets, especially ones with unique challenges and personalities. I am also a Type 1 diabetic, so if your animals require insulin or any other injectable medication, I am comfortable with needles and administering those medications. I work a full time job, but I am a fully remote worker, and therefore I can spend lots of direct time with your pet. I am very communicative with my clients, and will update every check in on how their pets are doing. I make sure to give the pets lots of attention. I will listen to you on what works best for your pets, and keep them on any schedules you have in place for them.
About: Loving, Reliable Dog Care Since 1998 My passion for caring for dogs began in 1998 when I started walking dogs in Washington, DC. What began as a simple love for dogs quickly grew into a rewarding business built on trust, reliability, and genuine care. With decades of experience, I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs. I provide dependable, personalized care so pet parents can feel confident knowing their dogs are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away. Whether it’s dog walking, sitting, playtime, or simply giving your pet some extra attention and companionship, I treat every dog as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of love. Over 25 years of experience. A lifelong love of dogs. Care you can trust. I have a 5 lb. Yorkie for your dog to play with. I am retired so I am home all day, every day. We love to go out and walk every day . I have a fenced in yard with wire all the way to the ground. My built in pool also has a safety fence. I have a 5 lb. Yorkie. My house is free for your dog to run around.

About: Hi, I’m Alexa! I’m a 22 year old lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs. Growing up, I helped care for multiple Vizslas as well as a Great Dane, giving me experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I currently have a miniature dachshund who is truly my world, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. My boyfriend, Alex, who lives with me, also helps care for the dogs we sit. He grew up with a Husky, has years of experience with dogs, and as a 6’3” former college athlete, he’s especially comfortable handling large, strong breeds. Together, we’ll treat your pets like family and provide them with the same love, attention, and care that we give our own. Starting July 20, my schedule will look slightly different. I will be available on weekdays after 5 pm, and I will be fully available on the weekends! I currently live in a 1 bedroom apartment in an near Findlay Market! Lots of sidewalks to walk on as well as 2 dog parks very close by. Apartment also has a pet spa and a dog run!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Edgewood
Mattie was nothing short of amazing during her time at our home, she is very detailed in documenting everything during her visits to the which we greatly appreciated. I absolutely would have Mattie watch our dogs again, I really appreciate her and the care she put into her time with them!
Thanks for everything this last week! You’ve been amazing. Thanks for all the pictures and the toys you left for them. You really didn’t have to do that but it’s much appreciated! I’m sure the toy truck was just a result of some anxiety from being left home alone. I hate leaving them home like that but having someone like you stop by sure helps. And it looks like Petey warmed up to you pretty well!
Laura has been absolutely amazing with my dog. She does weekend check-ins and walks for us, and I genuinely couldn’t ask for anyone better. My dog can be a little more challenging than most, but Laura is incredibly patient, thoughtful, and attentive with him. She really takes the time to understand his personality and needs instead of just going through the motions. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. You can tell she truly cares about the dogs she works with, and that makes all the difference. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and dedicated. She goes above and beyond every time.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Edgewood is $14 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $34 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.

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 Edgewood 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. 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 , 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. 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.

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.

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.
