About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and have always been the one to make sure they’re happy, healthy, and cared for. I’m currently a proud cat mom to two cats who are quite literally my children, I truly believe pets are family and deserve all the love in the world. ❤️ My friends and family regularly trust me to look after their pets because they know how much I genuinely love animals. I even originally dreamed of becoming a veterinarian before pursuing my passion for fashion design! No matter what kind of pet you have, I’ll treat them like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and give them all the love and attention they deserve! 🐾 I work from home half of the week, which gives me extra flexibility to spend time with your pets! On weekends, I’m usually home spending time with my two cats, so I’d love to have some extra furry friends to keep me company. I’m happy to coordinate schedules and make sure your pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and needs! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my priority! If watching a dog in my home, my cats will be put in a separate room for every pets well being! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’ll be sure to follow your instructions carefully. I’ll keep your home clean, make sure your pets have fresh water, food, exercise, and plenty of affection, and provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same love and respect I give my own two cats!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, as well as 2 cats! I’ve watched and owned both very small dogs about 10 pounds, as well as 110 pound dogs. I love to go on walks, so I’ll make sure your dogs walk a nice far distance! I will play with your pets, feed them, walk them, let them out as often as needed, clean their litter box, and make sure they’re feeling loved. I truly love animals and I am grateful for the opportunity to spend time with them. I can also provide whatever special care your pet may need. I promise your pets will be in good hands! I work 9-5 during the week, so I am available for drop ins before 9 and after 5, as well as all day on Fridays (I work remote on Friday) and all day on the weekends. I have reliable transportation and I am incredibly responsible. I am available for overnight care as well throughout the entire week. I have had dogs and cats my entire life, but I do not currently have any of my own as a young adult. I love animals and miss my own family pets dearly, so this is a nice way to be around animals while helping take care of them! I am capable of providing whatever care for your pet that you might need!

About: Growing up around pets, I know how much we all care about these family members so I want to help you feel your most comfortable and confident that your pet will get the best care while you’re gone! I’ve dealt with medically complex pets, both long-term and short, so I am not timid about making sure animals get their necessary care while also keeping their comfort level in mind. I’m comfortable with the spectrum of personality, from lazy bones to high energy and I am looking forward to helping you out! I have a flexible schedule thanks to my contract work with local theaters, so am always available mornings and afternoons. My evening schedule fluctuates depending I offer open communication, so I can update you as much or as little as you’d like! I know that dogs not having their person can be stressful sometimes, so I want to balance that with as much stability as I can provide. My household functions on a morning/evening feeding schedule, but I know every household is different so I’m ready to learn your house’s system!

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.

About: Hi, I’m Nina! I’ve been working in the pet industry for over 7 years, and caring for animals is truly second nature to me. I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide range of pets with different personalities, needs, and medical requirements, and I always aim to provide calm, reliable, and attentive care. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care routines, including pets with special health needs. I also have experience caring for anxious pets and understand how important patience, consistency, and a calm environment are in helping them feel safe and secure. Whether I’m doing walks, drop-in visits, or in-home care, I treat every pet like my own and focus on making their time away from you as stress-free and comforting as possible. I also provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I look forward to meeting you and caring for your pets! I am available every day and can offer twice a day drop ins providing enough time for meals, medications (if needed), potty breaks and playtimes! You can expect reliability, respect for your home, and consistent updates so you always feel confident while you’re away. I will make sure your pet is safe and happy!

Heidi is great! We had a meet and greet, and right from the beginning my dog felt at ease with Heidi. My dog is a senior, and Heidi made sure that she got the multiple medicines she needed. Heidi also sent me an update and pictures. It was a relief to know what Heidi was able to drop-in and visit my dog while I was away.

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 Groveport 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
