“Gwen took excellent care of my dog August! I work 12 hour shifts, and it was so nice knowing he was in good hands with her! She also gave detailed updates and sent the cutest pics!”
“Anna is prompt and reliable! I have an energetic puppy who needs exercise and I feel so relieved knowing she had a fun walk and a chance to go potty while I’m at work. Anna always keeps me updated with pictures and notes from the walk, rain or shine. I know she’s in safe hands!”
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!
“This is our second time booking with Emma, and we'll happily book with her again in the future. We had good communication, the walks were for the agreed upon amount of time, and we always came home to a happy dog!”
About: I’m a veterinary assistant with experience caring for cats and dogs and I have 8 years of experience working in an animal shelter. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, personalities, and medical needs. I can administer oral, topical, and subcutaneous medications and am experienced in recognizing changes in behavior or health. I’m well versed in animal behavior and enjoy earning the trust of shy or anxious pets. I’m also comfortable caring for spicy cats. For everyone’s safety, I don’t accept dogs with a history of biting, but I’m happy to work with fearful or anxious dogs who just need a patient, understanding approach. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. I currently have full-time availability, which allows me to be flexible and accommodate your pet’s routine. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, overnight care, or last-minute help, I’m happy to work with your schedule. I believe consistency is important for pets, so I strive to provide reliable, attentive care and make sure they receive plenty of companionship, exercise, enrichment, and affection while you’re away. I only provide pet care in your home, where your pets feel safest and most comfortable. I’m experienced with following feeding schedules, giving medications, and sticking to each pet’s normal routine. With my experience as a veterinary assistant I’m confident caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. My goal is to ensure your pets feel secure and loved while you’re away.

About: I have had dogs and cats all throughout my life growing up, and I now have a 4 year old golden retriever and a 2 year old spunky orange cat. My animals are my world and I would treat your animals as my own! I would only want to trust my animals with someone who I knew would treat them as well as I would, and I want to provide that for others. :) I currently work from home, so I can be flexible to check in on your babies throughout the day. I’ll be available for boarding on the weekends, as long as your animal is friendly with other animals ( I have a golden retriever who loves to play and a curious kitty cat) I live in an apartment with a super friendly dog and curious kitty cat. I can crate your dog as needed and I will make sure they get lots of safe outside time together or separate as needed.
About: I’m currently a graduate student at The Ohio State University, and alongside my academic work, caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’ve owned and cared for a variety of dogs of many different breeds and sizes. Growing up and into adulthood, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, and playtime. I understand how important it is to maintain your dog’s routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. As both a responsible graduate student and a lifelong dog owner, I bring reliability, organization, and genuine care to every visit. My goal is too make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for, and to give you peace of mind while you’re away! As a graduate student at The Ohio State University, I’m only in class for a portion of the day Monday through Thursday, which gives me consistent flexibility throughout the week. I’ve included my class scheduled to be fully transparent about my availability: -Mondays 8am-4pm -Tuesdays 8am-12pm -Thursdays 8am-4pm My Wednesdays will be open until October, and Fri/Sat/Sun are generally wide open! Outside of class, my schedule is structured but open, allowing me to plan pet care visits, walks, and check-ins reliably. When caring for pets in other homes, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and consistent as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any specific preferences your pet may have. My goal is to make them feel safe and comfortable in their own environment.

About: I've cared for pets (dogs, cats, goats, chickens) since I was 8-years-old. Friends and family know they can always rely on me give their animals the care and attention they need. I have experience providing medication (oral, shots) to senior pets, as well as those with complex health needs. I have a flexible schedule with minimal work during the summer months, which leaves me available with lots of time to care for your furry friend. I can tailor my schedule around your needs and their preferences. I have two pet-loving kiddos who are happy to play with animals and who also know how to give them some space if they'd prefer it. Our front yard is unfenced, but we have a very walkable neighborhood with green space to allow sufficient outdoor time. We can provide flexible care in our home depending on what your animal needs.

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.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Grandview Heights on Rover is $19.26 per walk (as of August 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 .

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.

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:
- 94% of walkers 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 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.
