Miriam exceeded my expectations as first time user of the app. If everyone is as kind as she is, I may never return to doggie daycare! 12/10

About: Hi! My name is Sabrina and I’m a second year optometry student at The Ohio State University! My first job at 13 was taking care of my next door neighbor’s dog. She loved me so much that she referred me to a few other people within the neighborhood. They relied on me to walk, feed, give medications, among other responsibilities. I never had the opportunity to have my own furry friend, so I loved dedicating my time to helping others with theirs :) I’m a second year optometry student looking for an easy and fun way to make some extra money! My schedule for school keeps me pretty busy, but I do have time to fit in some pet sitting jobs! I love pets and love being active, so walking dogs definitely is within my ballpark (no pun intended). If your pet loves to have someone keeping them company I’m the same way!

Taylor has been very helpful. She has come and walked our very energetic dog on a weekly basis and I have had 0 difficulties getting ahold of her or getting feedback about how everything went. She is very sweet and a great choice for your pet!

About: I have always had a deep love for animals, especially dogs, and caring for them comes naturally to me. With years of hands-on experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable handling large breeds, small breeds, and everything in between, and I understand how their needs can vary depending on their size and stage of life. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, medications, and of course plenty of playtime and affection. Pet sitting isn’t just a job to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. Im currently attending online school and I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of time to walk, play with, and take care of your pets! I have a large fenced in yard and big house with a big kennel if needed. I have a very friendly cat and cavalier King Charles spaniel however they can easily be separated from your pet if required!

After 2 walks with Mallory, I'm pleased. Jimmy knew what she was here for the second walk. He's tired after, which is what I wanted. I added a pic of him sleeping tonight (1 1/2hrs) after his walk. His eyes are rolled back in his head, and snoring. Mallory is very kind and obviously loves animals. I'm so grateful to have found a great match. Excited to see Jimmy be more active.

Jennifer was really assuring through the process of using rover for the first time! She provided a lot of pictures and details and did things I forgot to ask for, like refilling my dog’s water bowl. I felt really comfortable with her walking my dog and am happy knowing he got some extra care and attention!

About: I'm an animal lover who's grown up with multiple family members who owned dogs and have had my own German Shepherd for years since puppyhood! Well versed in caring for, walking, and enjoying company of pets. I'm a college student currently working part-time and studying for the LSAT, so I have a fairly flexible schedule that can work well for you! My approach would be to try to provide structure to the animals while following the rules and preferences of the clients. I've found my own dog is the happiest when provided efficient stimulation, so I would want to provide that for any pets I was sitting.

About: 👋Hi I’m Annie! I have grown up with dogs and currently have a 3.5 year old black lab named Tank. 🐕‍🦺 Tank is a good boy and plays extremely well with other dogs but also is happy sleeping or chewing a bone on his own. This comes as no surprise as he is actually a failed guide dog - failed after getting startled by loud noises! In my wider family, we have a range of dog sizes, personalities, rescues, and breeder dogs…meaning I have a lot of experience with lots of different doggie backgrounds. I am confident in my ability to quickly learn how your dog(s) interact with other dogs, animals, and humans. All dogs have different needs. I will accommodate your personal and pup’s lifestyle preferences, whether that is more active or a more relaxed day. I also strive to keep up with any ongoing training so your pup doesn’t fall behind while you are away 🏠 I work from home full time, so this allows me the flexibility to build my schedule around the attention and enrichment your dog may need. What a typical daycare looks like: - Sniff and playtime with Tank 🤝🐽 - Weather dependent - at least 1 walk, which your dog is welcome to join or not 🐾☀️🚶🏻‍♀️ - A choice of ropes, kongs, squeaky, plush, and ball toys to play with 🎾🪢🧸 - A variety of treats (as allowed) including probiotics, dental chews, nubz, milk bone, and frozen peanut butter treats / kongs 🦴🥜 - For relaxed pups, they are welcome to chill out on the furniture or dog beds around the house or next to me while I work 💤🛋️ - Weekend daycare will include a trip to the dog park weather & owner permitting Please read further below about schedule and other info! I am in a permanent work from home role with flexible hours. I will do my best to fit around you / your pet’s schedule but of course if something clashes, this will be outlined prior to booking :) Currently, I typically cafe for your pets in my own home. I strive to make your pets feel most normal while you are away and follow any rules you have set. If your dog is allowed on the couch, fine by me. If not, that is great as well. I will work closely with you to ensure I understand what is best for the dog and how to provide care that is as seamless as possible. I will provide detailed notes (or texts if preferred) of my time spent with your furry loved one and of course pictures galore (if requested).

About: I have two dogs of my own, have fostered several dogs before, and love interacting with dogs and cats! Friends are able to rely on me to check in on their pets, walk them, feed them, and I keep the pet parents updated on their pets. I work 3 days a week and my off days change each week. My off days are pretty open and I can be flexible with them! I do live in an apartment with my two dogs, so I cannot offer in home pet care. However I can check in on your pets, spend time with them, feed them etc

About: I've lived with and taken care of animals all my life (dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, hermit crabs, etc.), and watched dog/cat behavior shows religiously as a child. Volunteered at the humane society in highschool. Experience with cat and dog sitting for friends and loved ones. Currently have my own two cats, who are my pride and joy. I've also had my share of anxious animals so I understand reactive behavior. I have some experience with giving (primarily topical) medications. My new job doesn't start until mid September so I have a LOT of free time for watching over pets! I have a pretty open and flexible schedule right now. Since I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet in the care of someone else, I am meticulous when it comes to a pet's routine and quality of life.

Absolutely outstanding Rover sitter! Nick is incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely dog-smart. He took the time to understand my dog, were thoughtful about his individual needs and personality, and handled everything with an impressive level of care and understanding. I really appreciate his patience and willingness to work with him, and it was clear that he truly care about dogs—not just the job. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and experienced with dogs.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Grandview Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Grandview Heights on Rover is $19.26 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 2,568 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Grandview Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Grandview Heights. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Grandview Heights.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Grandview Heights. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
