About: I took care of my sister's dog for most of last summer and fall. I have developed strong dog-walking skills from this experience as she is quite the timid and confrontational dog. I have learned out to be extremely vigilant when walking a dog and I can read a dog's behavior as well as a human's at this point. My time management skills are par for the course and I have plenty of free time. I have plenty of free time – I have plenty of free time... there.. enough words. I have a fenced yard and beautful quiet neighborhood to walk your dog in. I can also learn the layout of any home and method for taking care of any dog by the standards of any owner within any home.
“Kathy did a fantastic job taking care of Roscoe! He spent the afternoon with her and came back happy and clearly well-loved. It's clear that Kathy has a natural connection with animals. She’s reliable, caring, and went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”
About: Hi! My name is Emily, I have 6 years experience in professional pet sitting and dog walking. Looking to expand and meet more pets and parents! Experience • Veterinary assistant background in general practice and urgent care • professional insured business experience since 2020; providing pet care full-time since 2024 • Currently enrolled in an online veterinary technician program Fear Free Certifications • Level 2 — Dogs & Cats • Avian • Equine Specialty I specialize in providing services for fearful, anxious, and reactive pets. All pets are welcome, with care tailored to their comfort, personality, and routine! I have been providing full-time services since 2024 while pursuing my veterinary technician degree online. My online coursework allows me to plan my studies around scheduled pet care appointments. I’m joining Rover as an additional way to reach local pet owners and expand my established clientele. As a full-time pet care provider, I schedule visits around your pet’s usual care times to keep their routine consistent, with each visit dedicated to their needs. I follow your feeding, exercise, medication, and home security instructions, use a patient, Fear Free approach, and keep you updated with photos and any concerns.
“Nicole was very accommodating when I accidentally set the reservation for the wrong date and had to change it last minute. You could tell from the pics she sent Dexter was well taken care of.”
“So grateful I found Beth! Even on short notice, she suggested a Meet & Greet to make sure she understood all instructions, where items were placed, etc. for my cats' drop-in visits. Sent Rover Cards with updates and pictures. Even my cat who is timid of new people came out from hiding during the visits. Will definitely book again!”
About: Hi there, my name is Natalie, and I’ve been an animal lover since the beginning! I currently have 3 rescues; my dog Will Sniff, and my cats Pepperoni and Pumpkin. I have 8 years of experience with dogs and 3 years with cats. I work best with medium to low energy pets of any size and shape. I work nights so I’m free during the day, and I’m almost always free on weekends too. Since I have pets of my own, I understand the importance of everyone get the love and attention they deserve. I’ve been reading up on body language of cats and dogs to make sure I can anticipate everyone’s moods and actions. I also make sure toys and treats are pet safe and supervise pets during playtime. Pet safety is of the upmost important part of owning animals.
“Tori did a great job taking care of my cat. She understood his needs very well (lots of snuggles) and sent funny commentary and nice photos every day. Will definitely have her cat-sit for me again!”
“Brooke was absolutely amazing with our babies! We were scared to leave them with someone that wasn't family or a friend but she eased those scares! She sent plenty of pics & always made sure to ask before giving something to the pups or doing walks with them ! We will definitely book her again in the future!!!! Thanks for being such a sweet soul to our babies! 😊”
“My kitties had great visits with Merri! I contacted her with very short notice but everything worked out smoothly and wonderfully. I will definitely contact her again in the future and recommend her to anyone with four-footers - both cats (I have four) and dogs!”
“Jacque is consistent and reliable- we use her on routine basis. Additionally she is flexible in meeting our puppy’s needs which include a mini walk and one on one play time. Our puppy loves her so much.”
“Lindsey was amazing to work with! Great communication before and during her visit with our pup. You can really tell she cares about her clients ❤️ And our pup Duncan seemed very happy after her visit! We'll definitely use her services again.”
About: I have several neighbors that I’ve dog sat for before. I’m experienced in giving medication to senior dogs, along with providing walks and feedings plus giving them all the love they deserve. I look forward to taking care of your fur babies. I’m currently in school three days a week. While that does limit my time spent with your pups, I am still able to provide basic check ins/walks/potty breaks. I am fully available for more in depth care during the weekends. I will always make sure your pup is comfortable with me and safe. I will be sure to always keep them on leash for walks, make sure they are played with and loved, and follow whatever food routine they need.

About: I have taken care of my animals and my families animals. They have relied on me to feed, walk, and bathe their pets. I would love to help take care of your pets as well. I’m currently working part time and this would be a great fit to fit in my schedule for some extra money. I am available Monday-Friday after 2:30pm. I have a nice big fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run. I am willing to come over and let your dogs out as well.
“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'm new to pet sitting but not new to loving dogs and cats! I have 3 fur babies (pups). Dora, Rosie, and GG and they are my world along with my husband of course! 😊 I am also a Board of Trustee member for Columbus Humane as I am deeply passionate about animal welfare. I've spent 25 years in leadership in the intellectual and developmental disability field. I'm currently launching my own consulting business that allows me flexibility to earn extra income snuggling with your pets! I will treat your pets like my own which means lots of love, walks, and treats! I am currently starting my own consulting business so my schedule is very open. I go to the gym 3 days a week around noon for an hour. Otherwise, I have lots of availability. As a dog mom who is super protective of my pups ever getting out of our yard, I will ensure I follow all instructions to make sure your pet is safe at all times. All 3 of my pups have their own needs as they are all seniors so I'm comfortable with special diets, medication, or any other needs your pet may have.

Erika was such a wonderful pet sitter! This was my first time using any sort of pet sitting service and I was so worried about how Winnie would do since she super nervous, but Erika spent time with her and made sure she felt safe and comfortable while I was gone. Honestly 10/10!!
Kathy was so wonderful and kind! Kathy did a couple drop in visits for us 3 years ago and when I saw she was available again for a last minute booking, I was so happy! I knew our dog Louie was in great hands! She is very quick to respond and a great communicator. She was very accommodating. I would give her 10 stars if I could! Thanks Kathy!
Amanda did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Buck, while we were out of town! This was our first time using a pet sitter, and she made the entire experience so easy. She was wonderful with Buck and gave him exactly the attention and space he needed to feel comfortable. She kept us updated throughout our trip and gave us so much peace of mind knowing Buck was happy and safe at home. It means a lot to find someone we can trust with our boy, and we will absolutely be using Amanda again for future trips. I highly recommend her! ❤️🐾
This is the second time Avery has cat sit for us- our three kitties can be pretty high needs/high energy. Avery did a fantastic job taking care of them and keeping them stimulated and happy while we were gone on vacation! We will definitely hire Avery in the future for any cat sitting needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Grove City is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $27 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 2,621 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Grove City. 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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 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.
