About: I have a little over 3 years of experience caring for my friends and family’s dogs. They have entrusted me in walking their furbabies when they are unable to, feed and bathe them while they are away, and watch them for extended periods of time. I am currently available Monday-Friday after 4 pm to walk your dogs, or check in on them and feed them if you are away. Weekends I have an open Availability. And for extended stays I am available whenever. I do have a full time job however, I work 10 mins up the road and can check in on the dogs while on break. I live in a gated community and we have plenty of outdoor space to walk your dogs or let them out for some freedom. I do have a 7 yr old son who loves to play and entertain dogs.& I have a cage available if need be however they are free to roam the house.
“You always worry when you get a new pet sitter. My regular sitter was out of town. I returned to Rover to hire Shannon and she was amazing ! I know my cats are kinda untrusting with new people ( except one of them ). Shannon followed all my instructions, gave me photo updates and my kitties & I are super happy! Would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for amazing house visits Shannon! 💕”
“Mark was very patient and understanding with Zeke! It was clear that he has lots of expertise around dogs and is responsive to their needs. Mark also communicated well with me and went above and beyond to care for Zeke! Highly recommend!”
“Cailie did a great job, (again!) of taking care of our three cats . We have used her every summer for our vacation and she is completely reliable and such a sweet girl. Highly recommend:)!”
“I cannot rave enough about Mary. She took so much of our stress away being away so long and took such great care of our cats. Would give her a thousand stars if I could!”
About: Hi, my name is Kylie! I’m a patient, kind, and attentive dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I treat every dog like family, ensuring safety, fun, and love every day. I’m reliable, responsible, and ready to make your pup happy and comfortable while you’re away. I’m available weekdays (Monday–Thursday) for dog sitting, walks, and playtime. My schedule on weekends varies because I work at different stores, but I’m happy to accommodate special requests or fill-ins whenever possible. I love caring for dogs and enjoy making them feel safe, happy, and loved while fitting pet care seamlessly into my week. Although I don’t have pets of my own, I love caring for dogs like they’re part of my family. I supervise them at all times, follow their routines, and create a safe, clean, and loving environment so they feel happy and secure while you’re away.
“Constance has been amazing! She came for the meet and greet and asked all the right questions. Then the first time she did a drop in, my one dog was really sick. She communicated everything with me and took really good care of her! Followed ally instructions perfectly. Will definitely have Constance taking care of my dogs again!”
About: i’ve been around dogs my whole life! my favorite being german shepherds but my love for dogs in general is unconditional. cats are definitely growing on me as well. pets are nothing new to me and i’d love to get to know yours!! I have a somewhat flexible schedule. i am available throughout weekdays as well as weekends.However, I do work and go to college, but i want to dedicate the time i do have to taking care of your pets! i’ve had dogs for pets for as long as i can remember so it’s safe to say your dog and i will get along very well. cats are undeniably drawn to me for some reason and i embrace it every time. i have a fence around my house for my german shepherd, Amelia. i love taking her for walks and i’ll do the same for you dogs. i love cuddling with my girlfriends cats and i’m sure your cats will be very happy to hear they can have some love from me too!
“Nina is a clear and prompt communicator through the whole process of working together. She asked thorough questions at our meet and greet that helped me feel comfortable leaving our dog in her care. Ren was happy to see to her, and I'm sure looked forward to her visits! We'll be contacting Nina first when we next need a sitter.”
“Lauren accommodated a last minute booking for us! We have two cats, one of which can be a bit particular and both need to take pills which Lauren made sure they got. I had also found a kitten right before our last minute trip and Lauren also kept her quarantined and make sure she got her medicine as well. Thanks so much for taking great care of everyone!”
About: I have 6 years of experience with animals. I attended the vet science program at Butler Tech on a farm for 2 years, worked at a vet clinic, dog day care, and volunteered at an animal shelter over the course of the years. I’m dependable, attentive, and passionate about giving every pet the love and care they deserve. Your furry family member will be in caring hands!🐶❤️🐾 I currently have free time majority of the days because I am no longer working but I am a college student. Monday's and Wednesday's I'm not available. Tuesday's, Thursday's, and Friday's I'm free to go take care of your furry friends. Overnight house sitting isn't an option but if you are in need for a sitter that will stay with them from the morning to evening I'm available to do so! I treat every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I provide a calm, safe, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s routine, feeding instructions, and individual needs. I’m attentive to their behavior and make sure they receive plenty of love, playtime, and companionship. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away.
About: My life has been devoted to helping animals of all shapes and sizes! I’m so grateful to have met so many amazing animals in my life, and I can’t wait to meet yours, too! I just finished my PhD in animal behavior (working with raccoons!). I’m between jobs and just moved back to Cincinnati, so I’m excited to meet some new animal friends here! Before that I did my masters degree working with fish, and I have worked in zoos, veterinary hospitals, and with wildlife! As you can guess, I’m comfortable and knowledgeable about animals of all kinds. I promise to treat your pets like my own and work with you to help them have an enriched, happy life! I am comfortable with reactive or anxious dogs who may need more attention on walks and use a positive reinforcement based approach. Also experienced caring for dogs (or cats) who might be anxious, unsure, or even just a little quirky! I love kittens/puppies, seniors and everyone in between! Happy to help if your pet has unique needs, requires medication, or needs extra attention on walks or during visits. I am not comfortable using shock/e-collars, prong collars, or “choke” chains, so if your dog requires these for walks we may not be a good fit. Helicopter dog mom to my own 1.5 year old medium standard poodle who keeps me on my toes! Would love to start working with you and your pet to help them live their best life! I prioritize your animals and am available most days of the week. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Let me know if you think your dog might enjoy walking with mine and we can do a dog meet and greet too! I’m conscientious about entering your home and promise to triple check locks and doors when I go! I know it is hard to trust a stranger in your home so will openly communicate to help you and your animals feel comfortable!
About: I have had cats and dogs since I was very little and have been in the vet med field for 5 yrs. I am currently unemployed due to chronic pain and looking for something to fill my time. I am very passionate about all animals. I currently have 1 pitbull, 2 cats, 2 chinchillas, and a ball python. I am currently unemployed and going to school online. I have chronic pain and had to take a break from working in vet clinics. I currently cat sit for a family I met through my last job but am looking for more clients to help me keep busy and earn a little extra money to help take care of my dog, 2 cats, 2 chinchillas, and ball python! I am very respectful of your space. I will make sure to put things back as they were when I arrived and keep things clean. My job is only to take care of the babies and I will make sure they get the best care possible, exactly how you want it done. I am happy to take animals to the vet if something were to happen while I'm there. And I can send photos and updates as often as you would like.
About: I have had pets my entire life. I grew up with a dog and got my first cat when I was 7. Since then, I have had many wonderful pets who have greatly enhanced my life. My cat Vinnie was diabetic, so I have experience giving injections. I can also administer oral medication. I have been pet sitting for clients in the West Chester area for years and am happy to provide references. I absolutely love animals, and I will treat your pets as I do my own. I know how hard it is to leave them, and I will provide regular updates so that you have peace of mind. I tutor remotely and can make my own schedule, so I have lots of availability for your pets. I can do overnight stays when needed. I will keep your pets' schedules and routines. We will have plenty of play time and snuggles. I will brush them (if they like that.)
“Sandy was fantastic at looking after my kitty, Bug while I was out of town. She gave me updates and all the photos which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her and use her again. Thanks Sandy!😊”
“Our visit was great. Jenna showed up right on time and hung with our pups for about 30 minutes. They seemed to really enjoy hanging with her and she sent us a report when she left which was great.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Forest Park is $37 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $39 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 2,459 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Forest Park. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Forest Park. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
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.
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.
