About: Hi! I’m Tiffany. I’ve loved dogs my whole life and grew up caring for them. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog like my own. I’d love the opportunity to help care for your pup! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m not working a traditional 9–5 at the moment, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize walks, visits, and quality time based on each pet’s needs. I enjoy building pet care into my day and making sure every dog gets the attention, care, and consistency they deserve. I prioritize safety, supervision, and routines, provide calm secure environments, respect clients’ homes, and communicate regularly so pets feel comfortable, cared for, and owners feel confident.
“Asiah was so amazing looking after our Benny! She was quick to respond and sent photo updates throughout our appointment. I highly recommend her to look after your fur babies.”
“Maddie was great for our first experience using Rover. We have a 10 month old pup that we weren't comfortable boarding while on vacation. We utilized Maddie for deop in services to feed, walk and spend some time with our guy. She was very responsive from my initial message. We did a meet and greet several days before. She followed up with notes she had taken during that meeting to ensure she understood expectations and that we were on the same page. During her times with Joey she provided several pictures and a detailed summary of their time together for each visit. Maddie will.be the first person I reach out to should we need further services in the future. I highly recommend her to assist with anything you may need for your own pet.”
About: I’ve had pets since I was 5! After college I adopted my own dog who passed away at 15. I’ve pet sit for various friends and family members and have experience with dogs 6 pounds to 80! I currently teach yoga, am in graduate school, and freelancing. My schedule is rather flexible which allows me to add this into my daily schedule. At this time, I’m not inviting pets into my home. If I have regular clients whose pets I get to know, I will be open to in the future. Since I have a cat, I want to ensure the comfortability of both pets.
About: Hi! My name is Adriana, and I’ve always had a deep love for cats. A while ago, I adopted a sweet mama cat and her adorable kittens, and they’ve truly become the best part of my life. Watching them grow, play, and show their unique personalities has been such a special experience. Caring for them taught me patience, gentleness, and how much love a cat can bring into your home. I treat every cat I care for with the same affection and attention, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Your kitty will be cared for just like one of my own! 💛🐾 I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cozy cuddles, I’ll make sure they get all the attention and love they need while you’re away. 🐾💛 When I come to your home, you can always count on me to treat it with respect and care just like I treat your pets. I understand how important it is to feel safe and comfortable when someone enters your space, so I always make sure to follow your instructions carefully and keep everything just as you left it. Your pets’ safety and happiness are my top priority. You can trust that I’ll care for them (and your home) with the same love and responsibility I give to my own. 🐾💛
“Melanie was so fantastic to our two cats! We have one shy girl and she actually came out and played with Melanie! We were expecting for her to never see our Lulu. She gave such great updates and sent so many pictures that really eased my anxiety about leaving them. Will definitely request her again!”
“Taylor is great with our dog and she communicates so well from the time of booking to post visits. She also has been available last minute when we desperately needed help. Highly recommended Taylor!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 11 and have experience with a wide veriety of small to large size dogs. Experience includins walking, playing, pottying , brushing and giving medicine. Pet care is my primary focus as I am not employed elsewhere. Because I stay at the pet's home, my routine is based around care of the pet. I spend my time in the client's home playing with and caring for the pet(s). I follow the pet's routine as directed by the client, providing walks, feedings, play and bedtime routines the pet is accustomed to having.
About: I have a wide variety of pets my whole life ranging from medium sized labs to teacup yorkies! My husband and I have a flexible work from home schedule :) My husband and I have a flexible schedules and are able to attend to your pups needs throughout the day and evening! We can also just stop in to take out for potty breaks and give pets as needed :) I have a small dog that would love to be friends with your dog :) We do prefer to have the dogs sleep in crates!
“Darren has been letting my puppy out for a few weeks now and he’s been awesome! As forgetful as I am he is always adaptable and available for whatever I need, and I could tell my pup loves when he is over!”
About: I've taken care of dogs basically my whole life, worked at a dog center for 7 years. Still continue to care for friends and family's dogs 10+ years. Always loving them like my own. I am free all summer long, happy to work mornings or evenings. I will continue to care for your pet after summer if needed! I am so excited to meet new furry friends. Happy to care for pets in your home or walk them as long as needed. I can play or just snuggle and give them love that they need while you are out.
About: I can adhere to a meal schedule, help with medications, and am always ready to play/ give your pet the attention they desire; whether that is running around, a few scratches, or simply being present! I have a very open schedule. Most days I am off in the early afternoon, or even morning, and I have the weekends to myself! Thus I have lots of time to play, pet, and interact with your fur baby! I have had pets my entire life and am extremely comfortable with dogs, cats, and rodents. Having recently moved, I currently live in a pet-free home, thus you will never have to worry about another animal interacting with your pet, and can have peace of mind knowing that I give your fur baby my undivided attention while you are away! I live in a quiet area, so rest assured that your pet will quickly acclimate to the calm setting provided.
About: House with a large fenced in back yard. 2 dogs and a cat in the house that are good with other dogs. Have experience with giving any sort of meds your dog may require. I currently work full time in office but am home by 3 every day. Dogs can be taken on multiple walks around the neighborhood each day or they can enjoy the fenced in backyard. I have a large fenced in yard and also live in a neighborhood that is great for going on long walks. Dogs are allowed on bed and furniture.
“Ariel did great with our dog and our cat! This was our first time having someone drop in for our pets—and I’m sold thanks to Ariel. I got lots of pics and our animals clearly enjoyed her visits. I would definitely invite her back when the need arises—or maybe when Milo wants to play with a toy in the backyard with her!!”
About: After working in an animal hospital, I have learned so much about dogs and the care they need! I've worked with newborn puppies all the way up to senior dogs who need some extra care and help. I try to give puppies a little bit of training when needed (just basic stuff like sit, stay, lay down). Baths and giving medicine when needed are things I am comfortable with. I absolutely love working with dogs and I do my absolute best to make them feel as comfortable, safe, and loved as I can! I have worked with cats nearly my entire life and up until a few years ago, they have been the only pet I've had! I have also worked with kittens up to senior cats. I am very aware of medications and possible health issues with dogs and cats. I love spoiling both with treats and new toys. For cats, I deep clean litter boxes regularly and make sure they stay as clean as possible. I work part time at two jobs, but I only work up to 5 hour shifts at each. I am a very organized person (I use a planner and two different calendar apps!) so I will always make sure to plan out walks, feeding, and playtime. When petsitting, your pet is my priority! It is extremely helpful if I am left a list or note of things I can do to best take care of your pet(s)! I am very bubbly and love working with animals, which I think helps pets get comfortable with me. If a pet is nervous, then I let them slowly open up on their own. At my home, I love playing with my pets, giving them treats, and spoiling them with new toys when I can.
About: Hi! My name is Addi, I have a lovely boxer of my own who is absolutely adorable and energetic. I’ve taken care of loads of doggies, breeds such as staffies, frenchies, yorkis, boxers and chihuahuas! I’m a current student and work as a volunteer in the ministry so my mornings are often slightly busy from the hours of 8 AM to about 1 PM but I always work around the schedule of the dog I’m taking care of. I currently do not offer in house sittings because I find that dogs are easier to care for when thy ey are in their own home environment.

I have expedience with lots of different pets (cats, dogs, and horses) I am very flexible during the day for pet walks, pet and house sitting. I work from home and have flexible hours during the day.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gahanna
Maddie was able to stop by for drop-ins to care for our dogs, Lewey and Rizzo, during the week while I was at work. She sent updates each time and super adorable pictures! We always appreciate her taking such great care of our pups, and look forward to booking again!
Rachel took amazing care of my dog over the past few days. She was attentive, responsible, and truly caring. I really appreciated that she took him out for walks. I know he can pull pretty hard, and she handled it so well. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Gahanna 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
