“Jamie was great and super accommodating. We had a bit of a mix up with timing and she was willing to adjust her time which was very helpful. She stayed for longer than the time we requested, and have a great report with many pictures. Definitely would recommend for anyone to use and hope that she will be available the next time we need someone to play with Mickey.”

About: I’m new to Rover, therefore my prices are currently discounted to build my clientele. I’d love to do a meet and greet for long term walks or drop ins. My favorite time to do walks are from 9am to 4pm and weekends. I walk in rain or shine. I’m a lifelong animal lover and owner with 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, and I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. ❤️ Whether your pup needs a good walk, your cat needs some company while you’re away, or your pet needs a comfortable place to stay, I’m here to provide dependable, loving care. 🐶 Dog Walking: Safe, enjoyable walks tailored to your dog’s energy and needs. 🏡 In-Home Boarding: A comfortable, loving home environment where your pet can feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away. 🐾 Drop-In Visits: I’ll stop by to check on your pets, give them attention and playtime, provide fresh food and water, and make sure they’re doing well. 🐱 Cat Care: I’m happy to care for your cats by feeding them, refreshing their water, cleaning up after them, changing litter, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I understand that leaving your pets with someone else requires trust. My goal is to give you peace of mind while giving your pets the attention, consistency, and affection they deserve. I’d love the opportunity to become your pet’s trusted sitter, walker, and second home. 🐾❤️ 15 years of experience. Lots of love. One happy pet at a time. I am home full time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available for pet care throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding, litter care, and plenty of quality time with your pets while you’re away. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as comfortable and familiar as possible. I follow your instructions closely, provide plenty of love and attention, and make sure they have fresh food, water, clean spaces, and anything else they need. I also respect your home as if it were my own, leaving everything clean, secure, and just as I found it. I provide a comfortable, home-like environment where dogs can feel safe, loved, and included. I have four cats, so dogs staying with me may be around other animals, and they’ll also have access to small children in the home. My home has a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor time, plus plenty of opportunities for walks and fresh air. For pups who enjoy an adventure, I’m also happy to include supervised car rides and outings when appropriate.

“Chad is great! He took good care of our dog Milo while we were on a week’s vacation. We selected the drop-in visits service. He took the best pictures of Milo while on their walks and during his visits. He also gave great updates. Milo seems like he really enjoyed their time together. I will definitely book again.”

“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: We know how hard it is to leave your dog with someone else, so we treat every dog like a part of our family. We rescued our Pomeranian Teddy when he was 2 years old, where he received little in the way of socializing or a normal formative experience, and now he's a happy, playful member of our family. I have always had dogs growing up. I love to be around dogs! They make me happy, and I enjoy showering them with endless attention and affection. I'm a worrywart and keep my house 100% dog safe, and keep a watchful eye on any dogs in my care at all times-Teddy is never left completely unattended in the backyard even if he's just going for a quick potty break. Our house has a larged fenced backyard with lots of room to run around and excercise. We are located ONLY 10 MINUTES from Columbus International Airport (but not under the flight path at all), making our house an incredibly easy stop if you're coming back from travel! I am currently available to watch your dogs at any time. Weekdays, weekends and holidays can be a fun time for them to stay here and hang out in a quiet neighborhood with a friendly pup. We have a dog safe interior and a fenced backyard in a quiet neighborhood for your fur baby to run around in, with our sweet pomeranian to keep your dog company. We can crate your dog if you needed, or they can sleep with us in our room. Your dog will be given attention constantly and let outside every 2 to 4 hours, or as needed.

I also appreciate that when she made a scheduling error, she let me know right away and made up for the mistake. I feel comfortable having such a trustworthy and responsive sitter there while I’m traveling!”

“I can't reccomend Taylor enough! She took such good care of my cats and lizard while we were on vacation for a week. We have a very shy and standoffish cat and it was clear to me that Taylor made them all feel so safe and comfortable based on how willing the cats were to let her snap pics of them every day - shes a great photographer too! Great communication, punctual, flexible (thank you again for feeding and keeping an eye on our bearded dragon!), and just all around a wonderful sitter who we will absolutely be booking with again. I would trust her in my home and with my pets any day. Thank you Taylor!”

Jamie is absolutely amazing. Our kitty Shaylen is so shy and anxious around others, and Jamie tries each and every time to earn her trust by spending time with her. I could not appreciate her more for all she's done. Stellar and trusted sitter.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Gahanna

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Gahanna on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,685 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
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
