Shelly is very good with our aggressive cat. She follows our directions and we feel comfortable leaving our pet in her care while we're away. I would definitely use her services again. Thank you Shelly.

Kyra is awesome! She took such great care of our older cat Sophie while we were away. I got daily updates and pics so I knew she was doing well. Vacations are so much more enjoyable when you know your pet is well cared for. Definitely will be using Kyra again!!

Jerrica was quick to respond to a last minute request! My senior dog is going thru some challenges and requires a little work and the care has been fantastic. I have booked several recurring visits because of how patient and loving to Bentley Jerrica has been.

About: I've taken care of pets of all kinds for as long as I can remember. I've seen them through all stages of life, from my childhood dog delivering puppies in our basement, training young puppies, to end-of-life care for dogs of family and friends and everything in between. I've cared for dogs, cats, ferrets, lizards, fish, and horses. I can't wait to meet your furry (or scaled) friends! I'm a busy boy mom but I always have time for pets! Whether you need a morning walk, lunch time potty break, or a dinner time check-in, I'm happy to help. I will come to your home and care for your pet where they are most comfortable. We will follow your instructions, get some exercise, and maybe sneak in a few snuggles.

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: Dogs have always been in my life, from childhood, after college, raising my son ( we had 4 dogs!), and now as an older adult! I have adopted senior rescue dogs ( 5 dogs in the past 18 years). LI can't imagine my life without a dog and will always look for another rescue. But now I just want to have dogs around me and that's why I want to pet sit! I am a retired teacher and love to take my dogs for long walks! I have a flexible schedule. I I love snuggling with dogs and having fun with them! I don’t sit for other dogs in my home! My dog keeps me busy - walking 3 times a day, playing zoom, going to the park!

Kaylee was amazing. She did great with our boys. It was the first time we had left them without someone staying in the house with them and she put my nerves at ease that they would be well taken care of. Highly recommend Kaylee. We will definitely use her again when we take a trip.

Erin was fantastic with our three older dogs during her drop-in visits this week. Taking care of senior pups requires a certain level of attentiveness, and Erin delivered. She was incredibly punctual, showing up right on time for every single visit, which kept our dogs on their necessary routine. Her communication was prompt and detailed, giving us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely work with Erin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!

Alanis is an absolute gem of a house sitter, from the first time I met her I knew she would be my go-to pet sitter. She's incredibly caring to my big orange, crybaby, loaf of a cat, the pictures she sends me shows that he's perfectly comfortable being around her. I never have to worry about my cat when I book her, I know he'll have food, water, cuddles, and a clean litter box. I recently booked Alanis to watch my house for a whole month, and not one of my ~70 houseplants perished, she's amazingly detail-oriented and I cannot praise her enough!

We had a great experience! Communication was excellent throughout the entire booking, and we really appreciated all the updates and photos of Ted while we were away. It was clear that Ted was well cared for and getting lots of attention, scritches, and love 😊 We also appreciated the extra thoughtfulness of bringing in our package and cleaning up after Ted when he got sick. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We would absolutely book again!

If you are searching for a sitter for your kitty with medical needs, then look no further! Last month my cat was diagnosed with CKD. I was in desperate need of a Rover sitter to help give subcutaneous fluids to my (squirmy) kitty. I knew I needed someone who provides this care almost every day. I was so lucky to find Victoria’s profile. Victoria was clear in her communication and came prepared with techniques, tricks, and even extra supplies. Her first visit she wowed me by being able to insert the needle in on her own - my job after was to distract with pets and treats. The whole visit took about 10 minutes. Victoria is confident, calm, and kind. Her presence has eased any concerns I have about my cat not getting his proper dosage of fluids. I have absolutely no doubt you’ll feel at ease knowing Victoria is watching your kitty kiddo! I cannot recommend her enough.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Hilliard

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Hilliard on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,744 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hilliard. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hilliard. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
