“Yasmin was fantastic and so helpful! Worked well with our puppy and maintained the training we are working on. Love her communication and just super easy to work with!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Ericka! She is among the most caring, educated, and thorough sitters I know. Her ability to understand pet body language is remarkable — she notices even the most minor details and knows precisely what a pet needs to feel safe and happy. Ericka is incredibly consistent and reliable, and I’ve never once had to worry when she’s looking after my dog. She treats every animal as if they were her own, and her calm, attentive nature has made her the only person I fully trust to care for my pup. If you’re looking for someone knowledgeable and compassionate, I can promise you that Ericka is the best.”
“Ashlyn was fantastic! When we were away, she made sure that our two dogs were more than well taken care of. She went above and beyond! We will be booking with her in the future for sure!”
“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!”
“Laurie is a fantastic dog and house sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure my dog is happy and cared for. She has done overnight visits and day visits and both have gone great. I can't recommend her enough!”
“Carrie is lovely. This was my first time booking a sitter and I couldn’t have been happier. My little one suffers from separation anxiety- but she was so relaxed being with Carrie. I would highly recommend her!”
“So grateful I found Beth! Even on short notice, she suggested a Meet & Greet to make sure she understood all instructions, where items were placed, etc. for my cats' drop-in visits. 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!”
“Mackenzie was fabulous! Manny was well cared for and happy. I truly appreciate Mackenzie’s attention to detail with Manny’s senior care. I truly appreciated all the pictures and updates! Highly recommend!”
About: Registered Nurse offering specialized care for senior and special-needs pets in the area, temporarily offering introductory rates to build my client base. As a clinical professional with an extensive healthcare background, I bring clinical observation, safety, and gentleness to pet care. I specialize in providing peace of mind to owners of senior and special-needs dogs and cats who require extra patience or medical support. Because I look after a cat of my own, I know how stressful it is to leave a beloved pet with health challenges at home alone. I offer part-time care with open, flexible daily availability to ensure your pet stays strictly on their routine. Because I choose to work part-time with open, flexible availability, pet care doesn't just squeeze into my routine. Rather, it acts as the anchor of my day. My flexible schedule allows me to prioritize your pet's specific routine, whether that means a precise morning medication window, a midday wellness walk, or a late-evening check-in. Because I am not rushing between a rigid 9-to-5 job, I can dedicate my full, undivided attention to monitoring your pet’s comfort, pacing, and medical needs exactly when they need me. I love meeting animals right where they live! Because I have a temperamental senior cat who rules my own house, I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes. This environment is especially vital for the senior and special-needs pets I often work with, as keeping them in familiar surroundings dramatically reduces stress. Visiting pets where they are most comfortable allows me to focus on maintaining their precise daily routine, accurately administering any required medications, and providing a calm, dedicated presence right in their comfort zone.
About: I have six current pet-sitting clients, three for whom I’ve pet-sat for five years! With these clients, I do overnight stays and/or drop-in care in the clients’ homes. I have ample experience with elderly pets. I can commit as much or as little time to your pets as needed. I am happy to spend all day giving them company or just stop by as needed! I will change my schedule to fit your needs. I prefer caring for pets in my clients’ homes where your pets are likely most comfortable. I leave my clients’ homes in the exact condition that I found them.

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. 🫶

This was our second time using Kyra's sitter services for our three cats. Everything was just as amazing as the first time! We didn't have to worry about anything. We knew she would arrive on-time and take care of our kitties per the details we left. We have a finicky eater amongst our three girls and Kyra was patient with her and was able to get her to eat all her food. Looking forward to having Kyra cat sit for us again!
Erin is a great sitter that takes amazing care of our 2 cats. I appreciate her communication, her attention to detail to their routine and that she was able to continue my cats new medicine. I know my cats are in great hands when she is watching them. Will book 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.
Jayde was amazing! Our girl Luna absolutely fell in love with her and had the best time. She kept us updated, took great care of Luna, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
Kayla did a fantastic job watching my cat, Jasper, and maintaining my plants while I was away. I could see that Jasper immediately took to her and he was happy and comfortable being around her. She was quick to respond to my pet sitting request and she was professional, prompt, and met all my expectations. She even had to deal with the unfortunate situation of my front door lock getting stuck in place from the humidity. She was great at communicating and was willing to do what was needed to get into my house. I felt badly for the door getting stuck on her, but she didn't let that stop her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hilliard is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,614 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hilliard. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. 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.
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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
