“Tatyana did a great job providing doggy daycare twice a week! I moved to SC and my son in Dublin, OH took care of Louie for a month while I traveled for work. I was so relieved that Louie was well taken care of and happy when my son was at work! He typically doesn’t like other dogs and Tatyana appropriately introduced him slowly to her dog and they became buddies. Louie looked forward going to her house and he’s an anxious picky pup. I highly recommend her!!”
“Hayley is so sweet! Has been updating me on a regular about my fur baby and sending pictures. I definitely felt very comfortable and at ease leaving knowing my pup does have a little separation anxiety. Definitely will be back!:)❤️”
About: We’ve grown up with dogs in our homes and have owned dogs for nearly 10 years now. We provide for all of their care, and have experienced that care from puppyhood through late adulthood. We have experience housebreaking, crate training, behavioral training, and trick/skills training. Our oldest dog, Chloe, has also experienced double CCL surgeries, so we also have experience with rehabilitation, medication issuance, and emotional support during healing. We’ve dog sat for multiple of our friends dogs who have special feeding schedules and needs that we've been able to maintain while they are with us. Given our experience, we are comfortable and confident to provide your dog with a safe and caring environment, where their needs can be met and they can have fun while you're away, playing with our dogs both in our home and in our fenced in back yard. We both work full time from home and care for our two dogs throughout the day, so your dogs will have non-stop supervision, socialization, and 2 other dogs to keep them company for their entire stay. We have two dogs currently that we have had for 9 and 3 years, that get along great with other dogs with experiences in other Rover's homes, time at The Wag (Dog Park & Bar near Grandview), having spent time at Doggy Daycares, and countless playdates with our friends' dogs through the years. We have a fenced in backyard where the dogs can play and have fun. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a large house for the dogs to run and play throughout the day. There is manmade ponds in our neighborhood with walking trails for when everyone wants to go on a walk.
“Nicole is an excellent caring host. She has a wonderful large grassy backyard with a big tree providing shade and has a pack of nice regulars that are all easygoing . Overall it was an excellent experience for Cookie.”
“Allison was super accommodating and responsive on late notice watching our Kona for us! She sent many updates and worked with our schedule. Fenced in back yard for the dogs to run around safely as well! Highly recommend! Thank you Allison!”
About: I’m a dog (and cat!) mom looking for a fun way to keep myself accountable on my health journey! I’m a 41 year old mom to a teenage boy, a 9 year old yorkie mix (Severus), and 10 cats! I’ve been on a journey to better myself for the past year and one thing I make sure I do is get my steps in. I thought it would be a great idea to put myself out there to make some new dog friends and help keep me (and the doggos) getting our exercise in! I work full time from home Monday through Friday from 7am to 330pm. My walking availability is any time after my work day through the week, and open to anytime on the weekends. For sitting/drop ins, please inquire. For boarding, pets will be with me all day and night. I have 10+ years of experience caring for animals, my house is full of love, treats and toys! If you book me for services, you can be assured that same love will be given to your furry friend. Feeding schedules followed as provided by pet parent to ensure your pup is getting the required amount of food. My dog eats freely except when I’m boarding as to not disrupt any schedules. I currently have one dog (Severus), who is a yorkie mix and 10 total cats, some indoor/outdoor/mix. Our home gets hectic but we love our animals and can’t imagine life any differently.
“Our dogs seem to have enjoyed their stay. Great updates throughout the day with some wonderful photos (Vainy has a good eye for photography). We appreciated the flexibility in changing the pickup and dropoff times as our plans for the day kept on changing.”

About this sitter: Caring and very responsible! Great at multi-tasking, pays attention to detail, and enjoy staying active. Why I love dog sitting Since I was very young. Our first dog was a beautiful Cocker Spaniel we got when I was 7 years old. When I was in college I adopted a lab chow mix from the humane society and she & I quickly became great life long friends! I had her for over 14 years she filled my life with love and many great memories. Meet my pets- We have a sweet 5 yr old small dog. Clean, Safe, 2500 sq foot home awaiting your dog! About my yard Back yard is PERFECT for dogs. It has plenty of running space & is completely fenced in. Part of the yard has chain linked fence,so if your dog is one that will jump a 3 and a half foot tall fence, then this might not be your best choice. We make sure all toys are picked up & in good condition so no dog is injured chewing on an unacceptable toy. I work full time from my home so I do have time to give your pup lots of attention, potty breaks, & quality care ! I have a fenced in back yard with LOTS of space for your dog to run and play safely! My clean 2 story home allows plenty of comfortable space for your sweet pup to relax and be cared for.

He’s FABULOUS! My dog has not been boarded for years and coming to Tom’s home was easy for him. Tom took the time to meet us before he came to stay long term, so when Max saw Tom he was all happy tag wags! This is a miraculous event. I expected Max to be shy and back away, but he trotted into the house like he was an old friend. I am so grateful for Tom!
Alec and Aishu, and their lovely dog Winnie, looked after my girl Nova beautifully. She can be a little skittish at first in unfamiliar situations, but she soon settled down and relaxed! She had an amazing time exploring, going for a long walk and playing with her new pal. I appreciated that photos were sent throughout the day.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Hilliard commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 638 sitters in Hilliard, 91% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
