I have worked with a wide variety of breeds and am comfortable caring for senior pets or youngsters too! I can assure your furry family members are safe with me!

About: I've worked with, loved, and cared for all types of animals my entire life. I have many years of experience sitting for and walking dogs. I can't wait to care for or walk your pet! I work remotely from home and am available 7 days a week. I can work remotely from the clients’ home when house sitting as well. I live in a house with a fenced in backyard. I have no pets of my own and my home is a safe and smoke free place.
“Josh has went above and beyond to accommodate my very shy dog. He has went out of his way during his own lunches to make extra drop-in visits to continue to build a relationship with my boy. He has great communication skills and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for a house visit or stay. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I can remember. I know dogs require extra attention and I can’t wait to be your best friend’s best friend! I work a basic 9 to 5 as a graphic designer so I have all the evenings and weekends to spend with your fur babies. Bringing g someone into your home can be stressful. I will always respect your spaces and your animals. I’m happy to work around any special requests you or your fur babies may have.
“Heather checked in on my kitties over my 4 day vacation and I could not be happier with how she took care of them. She was great with communication throughout and shared great photos/overview of each visit. Her experience with animals definitely shows in her interactions with pets and I feel truly at ease knowing my kitties are in great hands with her. :)”
About: I grew up caring for medium and large dogs, and for the past few years I’ve been a devoted cat dad. Friends often ask me to look after their pets because they know I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m comfortable with a variety of pet personalities and routines, and I take pride in making dogs and cats feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their people are away. I am currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible. I am generally available any day of the week and can accommodate most scheduling requests as long as I am given advanced notice. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by trying to follow their normal routines to the best of my ability. In your home, I make sure they get the right balance of attention, exercise, and quiet time. I handle feeding, walks, litter care, play time, and any special instructions with care and consistency. I always check in with updates so you know how your pets are doing, and I aim to create a calm, safe environment where dogs and cats feel relaxed while you’re away.
About: Hi, my name is Hasti! I have just about 9 years of experience caring for my two dogs Lacey and Charlie. I have also worked at PetSuites in Dayton, Ohio, which is a pet hotel caring for dogs and cats. Just about anyone who knows me would vouch for my love of dogs and cats! In fact, I would say I prefer them to people! I will treat your fur babies as my own and make sure they have the best care while you are away. I know it is a huge stress on you to leave them with someone else, so I thank you in advance for putting your trust in me! My dogs~ •Lacey is a 9, going on 10, year old bichon frise and Shih-tzu mix (20 pounds). She loves people but is shy around other dogs. She loves to play fetch. Zero history of aggression towards other dogs or people. •Charlie is a 9 year old golden retriever (110 pounds). He is what you'd call a gentle giant; he loves making new friends and holding your hand. Zero history of aggression towards other dogs and people. *I can only accept dogs that do not have a history of aggression towards other dogs as I will have my two dogs home while your dog comes over* I am currently a senior in university with only one course left to graduate, so my schedule is very open. In addition to that I am working from home part time so I will have plenty of time for pet care. There is always someone in the house whenever I may be gone for a short while. Everyone in the household is an animal lover that will have the utmost care with your fur baby. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pet company. We will allow your pets full access to the house and on furniture.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very young, frequently helping neighbors and friends as well as daily caring for my own. In all the work I do, I’m very detail oriented and perceptive; pets are important parts of families, and the way that you desire for your pet to be cared for is very important to me! I will seek to serve your family to the best of my ability. I am currently employed with a local ministry part time that allows much flexibility in my schedule. I will soon be pursuing a Masters in Social Work this fall, but have plenty of time this summer to help out with your pups! I love being outside and going on long walks!! There are several dog parks near my home as well as plenty of open green space. I know plenty of walking paths that I think your dogs would love!
“Mackenzie was great! She was flexible with timing for Phoebe’s visits and followed all my directions! Gave me lots of updates and was patient with my pup! Thank you!!”
About: In addition to caring for my own dogs, I've fostered over 40 dogs including puppies, senior dogs, dogs recovering from surgery, and dogs requiring special behavioral and/or medical assistance. I've recently been approved as a puppy raiser for Canine Companions. I am retired and available during the work day. I know what it's like to worry about your dog getting the exercise and attention they need, my flexibility can work for you. I will have your dog on-leash for any walks or outside time at my home. As the pawrent, I want to follow any directions or suggestions that you have for making your dog comfortable and happy.
About: I’m a fourth year medical student at Ohio State and love spending time with pets of all kinds! I have one dog and two cats at home and have been taking care of them for several years now. I have some time off over the next several months as I finish up medical school, so have a very flexible schedule and will be available during weekdays, nights, and weekends! I love taking care of any animal and will make sure your pet gets plenty of love, exercise, and care that they need while watching them!
“As always, Autumn did a great job and eased my worries regarding my older pup Bella when I was away on an overnight trip . Bella was well cared for and happy :-) Her detailed communication was great”
About: I’ve dog-sat (and house-sat) for friends for a while, and nothing brings me more joy than seeing happy dogs! I love taking them for long walks or runs, spending the day playing with them, and of course giving them plenty of hugs and pets! ❤️🐶 I’m currently working full-time, so during the week I’m available to go on short walks during lunch and make sure your dog is fed and can use the bathroom. I can spend time with them in the evenings as well, and I’m also available for house sitting to keep them company while you’re away! I don’t have any pets of my own at home, but I’ve had plenty of experience caring for pets of friends and family members. I like taking them for walks through neighborhoods or parks where they can meet other dogs or people and see new places!
About: I have worked as a vet assistant for over 4 years so can administer meds or anything your furry friend needs. I am happy to watch any age dog, from puppies to seniors! My favorite dog breed are Samoyeds and I was raised with them! I am a college student on the pre-veterinary track and work as a vet assistant over the summer! I have 3 dogs at home and would love to take care of your pup(s)! I love to meet animals where they are at and do whatever it takes to make them feel comfortable in my care. I love positive reinforcement and giving them lots of love!
About: I work from home and have great flexibility to accommodate your schedule. I recently had to say goodbye to my dog of 11 years and miss his company. Caring for your pet(s) is how I hope to fill this void. While I don't have a fenced yard, my deck backs to the Hilliard soccer/baseball fields and live to walk pets through the park. I've raised 3 great kids and play pickleball as much as I can. I'm a responsible woman and could even help with household tasks! Thank you for your consideration! My schedule is mine to control. I work from home and have great flexibility! I use to walk my dog 3 times a day and enjoy the exercise! I feel giving pets/cuddles to our furry friends is reciprocal. We need it as much as they do! I have been to my daughter's house for my fido fix daily since I had to say goodbye to my dog. She had a golden and a boxer/pit mix and seeing them makes my heart happy.
About: I have been dogsitting for +8 years for friends, family members and dear Rover clients. You will read from some testimonials that I can be trustworthy with their pet(s), so much so that they have referred me to other friends and families. I work full-time near downtown 10-6 on Tuesdays-Fridays and from home Mondays, however there is flexibility throughout the week. I have evenings and weekends generally open to care for your pet with my full attention! I usually care for pets in the comfort of their home! At this time, I, unfortunately, cannot host pets in my home - though this may change at a later time.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Galloway is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Galloway
Cameron is absolutely wonderful. She handled check-ins with my 6 month old puppy, 3 year old doggy, and 1 year old cat with ease! She is very welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable about your pets. My animals attached and loved her immediately, and both my Fiancé and I grew fond of her quickly as well. She leaves everything in pristine condition and is overall wonderful. If you’re looking for someone to take care of your babies for a bit, Cameron is your girl!! As a fear free certified Veterinary Assistant, I can say this is definitely someone I trust with my animals, and we will only use her services unless unavailable from now on. Big thanks to Cameron from Maui, Ollie, and Winter!!🐾🐾🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Galloway is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $24 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 2,482 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Galloway. 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.
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 Galloway 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 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.
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.
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.
To find sitters in Galloway with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
