“Leann was a wonderful caretaker for my pup! She took excellent care, helped him take his medication, and made sure he got plenty of outside time. We got daily pictures to help put us at ease. She even gave love to our cat and brought in our packages without being asked! Highly recommend!”
“I highly recommend Emma! Upon our first meeting, one of my cats was immediately obsessed with her. My other cat is a bit shy but curious, and by the end of the stay, she came out for pets! Emma was communicative, detailed, and completely reliable. I'll definitely be booking her again.”
“Emma was incredible!! Very responsive and took great care of my dog! She was easy to work with and even was okay with meeting us first before booking! Would 100% book with her again!”
“Elizabeth was super reliable with twice-a-day visits, and so loving with Oliver! He loved her from the moment they met, and she executed all of his needs (food, vitamins/meds, treats, potty breaks -- everything!) with total ease. She took a picture each time, and reported any concerns right away. Elizabeth truly went above and beyond. I could not recommend her more highly!”
“Thanks Rachel for jumping in last minute and taking care of my two kitties! One of them is a medical foster that needs an oral med- no problems! Thanks again!!:)”
“Molly was so nice and took great care of my Finn! She sent updates and pictures daily, that really gave me peace of mind! Will definitely use her services again!”
“This was my second time having Emily watch my cats and she was wonderful! One of my cats wasn’t feeling well and Emily was very understanding and willing to give medicine etc. Always on time with pictures and very communicative - I highly recommend!”
“HB was very kind. She was prompt in her visits for my cat and got some cute pictures for me. HB took the extra time to sit with my cat and letting her get to know her, so at the next visits they would be friends. ☺️ I would recommend HB for a cat sitter to anyone!”
“Anna did a perfect job taking care of our cats while we were out of town for an extended time! It was obvious from the many photo updates that all of our boys really enjoyed her company. I couldn’t recommend Anna more highly!”
“Thank you, Thea!! So nice to come home to relaxed animals and no messes to immediately clean up after a long car trip! Titan hardly had any complaints for me, and that is a “win” because he is mouthy when I go away! 😂”
“Sadie-Jean took excellent care of my two cats, with daily drop-ins over the holidays while I was out of town for a week. She was completely trustworthy, reliable, communicative, and sent many videos and pictures throughout her visits. She even brought her own toys to play with them! I’ve used rover several times now and this was by far one of the best experiences. I’m sad to be moving out of the area, because Sadie is an absolute gem and solid pet sitters like her are hard to find. Thanks again for all your help Sadie!”
About: I have been taking care of pets all sizes and ages for over 6 years both in and out of the home. I make it my personal mission to love and care for your babies so you’re able to be away knowing they’re being cared for just the same. I am currently in school and working part time which gives me my evenings and weekends free to take care of your pets. I have my own fur babies at home and one of my own so finding time to take care of others pets when they need it not only benefits you, but also me! I have experience with all types of animals and their routines. I am experienced on crate and litter training, active or non active. I am able to keep up and adapt to any animals needs and create the best routine and environment for them.
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals, and being an animal lover has always been a big part of who I am! I grew up with a dog and two cats and now have a senior dog of my own. I understand the unique needs and personalities of both dogs and cats. Beyond caring for my own pets, I've been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family for years. I've also spent much of my adult life volunteering at animal shelters and fostering animals who need a little extra TLC or a break from shelter life. I'm experienced in all aspects of pet care, from walks, playtime, and feeding to providing extra patience and attention when needed. I've cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to sweet seniors, and dogs of all sizes and personalities. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your furry family member is in good hands. I'll treat your pet like one of my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and showered with attention while you're away! I work from home and have a job where I can make my own schedule so it's easy for me to do dog walks or drop-in visits as needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! On walks, I pay close attention to my surroundings, make sure dogs are securely leashed, and let them enjoy their time outside at a pace that’s comfortable for them. If your dog has a favorite walking route or a routine they’re used to, I’m more than happy to stick with it! For drop-in visits, I’ll carefully follow your instructions and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable having someone new in their space. I also know that every pet has their own personality, and some days they may want lots of playtime while other days they just want some company and cuddles. I’m happy to follow their lead and give them whatever love, attention, and care they need!
About: Hello! I have had a dog by my side my entire life, and after losing my own pup about three years ago, I’ve really missed that puppy and dog love in my life. I’m the person who stops to say hi to every dog I meet, and I genuinely love animals of all kinds! I have fostered dogs in the past and volunteered at a dog shelter, so caring for dogs with different personalities and needs is something I really enjoy. I am also a registered nurse, so being calm, responsible, and caring comes naturally to me. I pay attention to the little things to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I’d love the opportunity to give your pup some extra love, attention, exercise, and companionship when you can’t be there. I’ll treat your furry friend like they’re my own! I am available weekdays 8:30am - 2:30pm for drop in visits and dog walks. Can be available weekends and overnight stays as needed. Would love to fill my days with furry friend love. When I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I would my own. Whether I’m stopping in for a visit or taking your pup for a walk, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I’ll follow your dog’s normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I’m happy to accommodate crate time or any special routines your pup is used to.
“EXCELLENT sitter with swift communication. The husband and I had to fly out immediately; we needed a last-minute sitter. We put the house key in the lock box and flew out the following day without ever having met Shelly. Shelly was more than happy with that arrangement and dropped in to take care of the cats. We ended up flying back early too, and Shelly was super flexible with that arrangement too. Overall, extremely flexible and kind with A+ care.”
About: Hi! I have had animals all my life, from hamsters and fish to cats and dogs, I am an animal lover. If I was better at science I would have been a vet, but instead I just want to help you out and play, walk, or babysit your fur baby. I live near plenty of walkable places and would love a fluffy companion to walk with. I have had small to massive dogs in my home since age 5 so all sizes are welcome. I also love and have had cats and would be so happy to keep a kitty company as well. I am a remote worker and therefore working from home gives me a lot of freedom. Most of the time when I don’t travel you will find me laying by the pool on my computer or going for a walk on a call. I will have plenty of time to do so with a furry friend too. I care about your pets safety because I care about animals, so any specific requests can be accommodated if need be! I work remotely so I am able to spend quality time with your pet and be not only physically present but also offer a lot of undivided attention. I treat every pet like they’re my own and protect them just the same. Every pet deserves love and attention that makes them feel safe and comfortable.
“Caitlyn did a great job. She arrived on time, gave a very detailed report (which I appreciate), provided photos, and completed everything we asked. I definitely recommend!”
About: Hi! I am a Licensed Profession Clinical Counselor and work for a non-profit agency working with foster care kids. I have a MA degree in Psychology and have been told I have a "calming" affect on pets and people. References of course available both professional and personal. I myself use Rover for my pets and I feel more comfortable with adults vs. younger workers in my home while I am away. That is why I joined to bless other families that want an older adult in their home. I work during the day but can set my own schedule and I live in the Grandview Heights area. I am flexible with dates and times so please reach out with questions. I offer boarding in my condo for one pet and house sitting as well. I will be able to stay overnight but will be need to leave for a few hours everyday for my work. I will be home every evening and not need to leave until or 1pm or 2pm everyday. Flexible schedule . I make my own schedule and will work around the needs of your pets. I can drop by for visits as well I do offer care in my home but will stay in your home and be clean and tidy and send as many videos and pictures as you request.
About: I am a current veterinary student at OSU with lots of pet sitting experience. In the past, I have owned and taken care of dogs, cats, fish, horses, cattle, and reptiles but am open to caring for more! I’ve helped train service dogs in the past using positive reinforcement. I will make sure to take special care with your pet and follow any instructions you leave! I am a full time student but have a pretty flexible schedule. I am able to do overnights and able to drive within the Columbus and surrounding area. I will spend plenty of time using enrichment, walks, and spending quality time with your pet to make it feel as though you haven’t left. :)

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Grandview Heights
Leann did a wonderful job caring for our cats! She was very communicative throughout the stay and patient with our shy cat. She followed all of our instructions perfectly, even without having a meet and greet beforehand. We felt comfortable knowing our cats were in good hands and would absolutely recommend her!
HB was very kind. She was prompt in her visits for my cat and got some cute pictures for me. HB took the extra time to sit with my cat and letting her get to know her, so at the next visits they would be friends. ☺️ I would recommend HB for a cat sitter to anyone!
Sooo thankful for Rachel. She took great care of PK and provided thorough updates. I came home from my trip to the best greeting from him. I know he can be a little sassy so I appreciate her patience and understanding of his playful side and separation anxiety. Would definitely recommend and book her again in the future
Tori was absolutely amazing with our fur babies. We have a mischievous cat who likes to escape outside and she handled it wonderfully. We also have a diabetic cat who likes to hide and Tori was amazing at coaxing him out to give him his medication and insulin.
I highly recommend Emma! Upon our first meeting, one of my cats was immediately obsessed with her. My other cat is a bit shy but curious, and by the end of the stay, she came out for pets! Emma was communicative, detailed, and completely reliable. I'll definitely be booking her again.
Gwen took fantastic care of our cat when we were away for a two-week long trip. I am always nervous about leaving my pet for so long, but with Gwen’s help I knew he was not only being cared for, but nurtured as well. Gwen came over every day to make sure Rue had company, and I am grateful I got to enjoy my trip knowing he was well looked after. Gwen is friendly, has great communication, and sends photos every day. She even left a very thoughtful gift at the end of her last visit. I would/will 1000% book with Gwen again, and you should too!!
Emma has been someone that me and my dogs can count on to help us out through very trying times. My mother recently passed away and I had to make a 16 hour round trip in 2 days to attend her funeral. My first thought was “who is going to watch the dogs?!” Emma was available and more than willing to help us out. It is such a great relief when you are hours away from home but know that your house and your dogs are safe in Emma’s hands. Will book again and again 🖤
Elizabeth was wonderful, she was able to help me last minute and took such good care of my two cats! She gave thorough updates, answered any questions I had about the cats while I was gone, and both cats seemed relaxed when I got back. I would definitely recommend her services!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Grandview Heights is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $32 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 October 2026, there are 2,663 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Grandview Heights. 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.
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 .
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 , 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 Grandview Heights. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
