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: I've been taking care of animals ever since I was young. I currently am a supervisor at a vet clinic in Columbus and am looking to make some extra money on the side. I have been working in the vet field for 3+ years and currently a undergrad student with a dream to go to vet school. I am a big animal lover and have a big personality! I would love to love your babies as my own. I am currently a clinical supervisor at a vet clinic in Columbus. I handle cats and dogs from all ages all day long. I am looking for a side job to help my community as well as spread my love for animals. I work 9-5pm on the weekdays but are completely free on the weekends. I have two dogs of my own that have lots of energy. I know how to tire my babies out. Some days they decide to be couch-potatoes and I can relate! I have experience with all types of activity levels and social levels. This also related to cats as well!! Every animal is different and I believe their care is too! I'm willing to accommodate and make your babies happy anyway I can.

About: I have recently experienced the loss of my own pets. Im not quite ready to get any new pets, but as an animal lover and dog enthusiast there is something missing greatly in my heart. I am eager to utilize my free time to care for your pets. If you or someone you know requires pet-sitting services for a weekend or an extended vacation, please do not hesitate to contact me. This is a new endeavor, and I am uncertain about its duration, but I am committed to providing the same level of care that I gave to my own pets, ensuring your peace of mind while you are away. Please message me if you are interested or know someone who is. 🐶🐱 I am good to take on puppies or senior dogs that require additional care or medicine. I do have a full time job, but am able to be remote. I would glad stay at anyone’s home to sit the pets and add them into my daily routine as I did with my own dogs. Let them out, feed them, walk them, play with them, cuddle them, and ensure they know they will be taken care of under my watch. I can easily take on a crate in my home. I do not have a yard, so I would need to walk them on a leash for them to use the bathroom. Apartment dogs will be great to watch in my home, as they would be use to that atmosphere!
About: Animal lover since birth, caregiver for about 10 years. I love to spend time with animals! I have 2 dogs currently who I love so much. Your pets will be in good hands and I will treat them as if they were my own. Currently: I have open availability. I have a super flexible schedule and can accommodate for last minute changes. Please let me know at least 1 day ahead of time if there are any major changes. I have 2 adorable puppies who I adore with all my heart. We have a fenced in yard big enough for both, and we love to go for daily walks. For my senior dogs, I make him homecooked with kibble meals due to dietary restrictions. Every pet parent knows what works for their pets best, and I hope to uphold that. I believe all animals are special and I hope the care for my own pets can reflect in the care I will provide for your animals. 🫶
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. I worked for a vet office as a vet tech assistant for 2 years before moving back to Ohio.I fostered for the Franklin County dog shelter and my old vet for over 10 years so I am familiar working with dogs. I have 2 orange cats of my own and grew up with cats. I'm currently home until further notice so my days are free to help with what ever your pets needs are.So as long as you let me know what's needed I'm happy to adjust. I outline what is expected of me from the owners and will go from there. But I'll usally take the dog out to potty and then take them on a walk or play with them with there dog toys. I'll hang out with the cats and play with then with there cat toys

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hilliard
This was my first time hiring Ashlyn for drop-in visits with my dog River, and it won't be the last! She was reliable, punctual, and clearly took great care of River — she absolutely loved her. It's such a relief to find someone so incredibly trustworthy. Will definitely be booking with her again!
Kim & Whitney are the first dog sitters we've ever hired and we could not be happier with their weekend visit with our pack of 3 high-energy chaos gremlins! The dogs got lots of care, attention and playtime while we were out of town, with minimal disruptions to their routines. With a senior, adult, and puppy, our dogs each have their own personality quirks and preferences, and Kim and Whitney did a phenomenal job of making sure each dog got their individual needs met. We got photos and text updates after every visit, and they even took care of some house-routine tasks while they were there.
Jamie is an excellent pet sitter. She followed instructions well and took really good care of my dog, Birdie, stopping in three times a day for two days to feed and walk her. I love her calm attitude and can't say enough good things about Jamie! Thanks Jamie!
Kyra was amazing! My dog and cat really liked her. I was nervous to leave my dog with someone new, but she was great with him! We received regular updates and photos, and it was obvious they were getting lots of love and attention. I would highly recommend booking with Kyra!
Tom was very flexible and communicative when I reached out for a drop in visit/walk. He arrived on time and gave my dog lots of love and attention while he was there. He also sent me lots of pictures which is always nice to receive. I will definitely have him back to help!

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 Hilliard 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 Hilliard 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.
To find sitters in Hilliard with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
