About: I’ve take care of dogs and cats over the years, for mostly friends and family. I also have three cats myself, and love meeting new pets! I will take care of your pets like my own.

I have three cats with all very different personalities, each pet has very different needs as well. I have two cats with special needs as well, one has asthma, and one with irritable bowel disease. Whatever your pet needs, or you need to be comfortable while gone, can definitely do because I get it!

About: Dogs have always been part of my life! I've had many of my own and I regularly watch dogs for family and friends. I'm comfortable with all energy levels and personalities, from high-drive puppies to seniors who just want a slow walk and a nap. I follow your instructions to the letter, and I'll send photo updates every visit so you know exactly how things went. I'm an Army veteran, so showing up on time and doing the job right isn't optional for me. Availability: afternoons and evenings on weekdays, flexible on weekends. Weekdays I'm available for walks and drop-ins from 3:30 PM to 8:30 PM, and I'm flexible on weekends; morning, midday, or evening. Recurring weekday visits are ideal for me, so if you need someone consistent for the same time each day, I'm your guy. I keep my calendar updated and usually respond to requests within a few minutes. In your home, I follow your instructions exactly feeding amounts, medication timing, which doors stay closed, where the leash lives. I double-check gates and locks before I leave every time, refresh water at every visit, and never let a dog off-leash in an unfenced area regardless of how well they listen. On walks I stay on familiar, low-traffic routes and use a leash and harness the whole time. I keep your vet's info and an emergency contact on file before the first visit, and if anything seems off limping, not eating, unusual behavior you'll hear from me immediately, not at the end of the day. You'll get photos and a short update after every single visit. I'm an Army veteran, so being on time and following the plan is just how I operate.
“Ariel did a great job with Foo Foo. She walked her, too k care of her, gave her meds, and is very caring with her. She sent me pictures while she was with her and made me feel at ease that someone responsible was with my baby. I would definitely recommend Ariel!”
About: I have a 5 year old golden doodle and a 1 year old orange kitty. I have had my fair share of experience with wild and hyper pets, i love them all the same. I have helped my friends and family for years take care of pets while they are out of town. My goldendoodle is nearly 100 pounds so I am not afraid of taking care of or walking big dogs, as long as there is no history of aggression. :) I work a 9-5 M-F so if needed I can help before work feed your pets can check in on them. I prefer evening work as I know I will be off work by 5. I am happy to check in on your pets until 10 PM and walk them until sunset. I pay attention to detail and will make sure your pets are in a safe environment while you are away! Your pet will be safe and loved by me as if you were home yourself.

Breanna was such a big help with my Benny! She sent pictures every time she checked in on him, which gave me so much peace of mind. He even had an accident while I was away, and she went above and beyond by cleaning it up and doing the laundry. I really appreciated how attentive and caring she was with him. I would definitely recommend Breanna!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Highland Heights stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Highland Heights 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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 sitter.
