“Ashlyn took wonderful care of our pup, Birdie, while we were away. She arrived as scheduled, had great communication and ensured our girl had everything she needed. We look forward to working with Ashlyn again for our pet sitting needs.”
“Shelly took the time to bring my kitten to an emergency vet when it looked like he wasn't feeling well. She stayed with him for hours to make sure he was okay. I am immensely grateful for her help in saving my kitten.”
“Kaylee was wonderful with our boy Lukas. It was a first time we ever left him home while out of town. Kaylee was thorough in communicating and did a great job keeping Lukas on schedule with walks and meals. Knowing Kaylee was reliable gave us security and peace of mind.”
“Highly recommend, Carrie gave us detailed notes on how the visits went and photos. She really took the time to give my dog (flex) some love and attention. She was quick to respond to my messages and I really felt confident that flex is in good hands. Thank you Carrie.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Amber is just as perfect as my cat Purrfect!! She sends me daily updates on what my cat does while she’s there and, of course, and picture or two! She’s been wonderful with Purrfect who has really taken to her. I am very happy this has worked out.”
“Words can’t describe how incredible Ashley is! She has only watched my cats once but I will never use anyone but her! She is so kind, compassionate, and considerate. My cats were so at ease with her and I was at ease knowing she was watching over them! Ashley is truly one of the sweetest and greatest people I have come across!”
“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.”
About: I’ve had both cats and dogs as pets pretty much my entire life! I’m currently in school, but back home I have two dogs, Charlie and Ella! Additionally, I have been pet sitting on and off for the past 6 years with experience caring for cats and dogs of all sizes from french bulldogs up to golden retrievers! I'd love to get to know you and your fur baby and help out however I can! I’m currently in school and looking for a way to get my pet fix in since I no longer get to see my dogs everyday! I’m available on weekends and for check-ins during the week in the mornings, at lunch time, in the afternoons, and in the evenings. I will come to your home and care for your pet in the environment they feel the most safe and comfortable! I know every pet is different so whether they need feeding, walking, playtime, or just some cuddles, I'll be there!
“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.”
“Tia was great with my puppy. She let her out to potty and played with her. I felt very at ease knowing my puppy was well cared for with Tia. I love the pictures she sent of my puppy. I will definitely be using Tia again. Highly recommended her.”
About: I have two dogs now who I have personally trained from nothing. I also grew up with dogs so I have always been around dogs. I also was a patient care tech in the hospital and am currently enrolled in medical school. So I can provide quality care. I’m currently enrolled full time in school. Therefore, I would have to schedule around that but my school schedule tends to be fairly flexible. I should be able to meet the needs of most pets. My doggos are some of the most spoiled pets on the planet. I love to take them on walks or to the park and play fetch. We also love to just watch a good movie and spend some time together.
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!
“Alda was great with Harpo and went above and beyond expectations. Remembered things, i forgot to even ask her on our way out of town with toddlers. Awesome animal lover. Thanks again and will look to use again!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hilliard
Ashlyn was such a joy to have as a sitter. My cat loved her right away and he's usually quite she with new people. She was communicative and was willing to do whatever I needed when I was away. I'm so glad to have found her because I want to keep her as my pet sitter forever <3
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.
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!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Hilliard on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,694 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
- 98% 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 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.
