My dogs loved having them stop by and let them out for a fun brake. I got a great detailed report on how the visit went as well as lots of pictures! Would definitely recommend!

Rachel was amazing not only with me as this was my first time using Rover but with my senior dog. I never questioned he was taking care of and happy. Thank you.

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!

About: One thing that makes me stand out as a good dog sitter is that I always have put the needs of animals ahead of my own. I raised a beautiful golden who had many sicknesses, most relating to her allergies. She had anxiety, and many ear infections, feet infections, an eye infection and once , she got a blood clot in her ear which was very painful and required a lot of meds and TLC. I have an excellent veterinarian who gave us the best care. She got a walk on most days, excluding severe weather days. She got regular brushing, nail clippings, etc. She loved to play with balls and she loved pepperonis her whole life. I have raised several puppies and cared for several senior dogs and just being around animals especially dogs makes me happy. I am a teacher currently and I have evenings, weekends and breaks during the school year and during the summer I have time during the day for the month of June and my schedule frees up starting July and August. I have a fenced in backyard, no animals currently. I have a wonderful place to walk dogs and care for their needs. I love walking .

Kayla has been terrific with our Rocky. He just loves her! She recently stayed at our home for a week and while caring for our pup, she was respectful of our home and belongings. She also communicates well and is prompt with responses. We love the pictures she sent each day so we knew Rocky was being well-cared for and having a good time.

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: 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.

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: Growing up my family has always had pets around the house. From cats, dogs, fish, frogs, and guinea pigs, etc. I absolutely love animals and believe they should be treated with tremendous care! I’m currently working part-time during the week days. I’m typically available after 6pm, and I may be available before work as early as 11:30am. My schedule is flexible and I’ll do my best to accommodate for your pet care needs. My top priority is keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications (if needed), and any special instructions provided by the owner. During walks, I use secure leashes and remain aware of my surroundings to ensure your pet’s safety. For dog walks and drop-in visits, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, companionship, fresh water, and regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

Darren looked after my boy, Jiro, while I was out of town. Jiro is a young, male, chocolate lab, and many of you know what that means; it takes effort and concentration to look after him. Darren and Jiro get along great! I even got to have a visit with them over my security camera, and saw what a great time they were having! I,and Jiro, hope to have Darren back again someday.

Abbey has done a great job checking in on both of our dogs for two weeks now. She is super dependable about showing up on time, documenting the visit, and engaging well with both Theo and Bruce. She’s even gone the extra mile and cleaned up after Bruce had a couple of pee accidents inside the house - definitely not something we expect from any dog-sitter but very kind and thoughtful nonetheless. We highly recommend her pet care services!

Rachel went above and beyond. She noticed one of the litter boxes getting low and added more litter (a task we’d forgotten in our rush to get going). Rachel washed up cat food bowls so we wouldn’t have as much to do when we returned and sent photos of everyone each visit. We will definitely be a repeat customer!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Gahanna

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Gahanna on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,736 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gahanna. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Gahanna stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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.

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 Gahanna. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
