About: I took care of my sister's dog for most of last summer and fall. I have developed strong dog-walking skills from this experience as she is quite the timid and confrontational dog. I have learned out to be extremely vigilant when walking a dog and I can read a dog's behavior as well as a human's at this point. My time management skills are par for the course and I have plenty of free time. I have plenty of free time – I have plenty of free time... there.. enough words. I have a fenced yard and beautful quiet neighborhood to walk your dog in. I can also learn the layout of any home and method for taking care of any dog by the standards of any owner within any home.
About: Hi! I’m Alexandra and I’m born and raised here in Ohio. I grew up with dogs all of my life, and love spending time with and taking care of animals big and small! I have experience with taking care of puppies, senior dogs, and small and large breeds. I also have experience giving medications and love taking dogs on walks long + short, whatever your pets need! I am available for overnight care all week long! I do have a full time job, but Monday-Friday I am available after 7 most days for walks! And my weekends I am free all day :) I have a dog park and multiple green spaces within walking distance of my home. And I’m more than happy to take pets to local parks on long or short walks!
“Jenessa was a great sitter for Estie! She was always quick to respond, and was very flexible and helpful during my trip. I came home to a happy cat, which is all I can ask for! Thanks again:)”
“Heidi has been doing daily drop ins for our two dogs for almost two weeks now. She is wonderful. Lots of communication, pictures, and goes the extra mile. I was hesitant about using Rover instead of taking my dogs to daycare. She has reinforced that we made the right choice!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I currently work in dog daycare and boarding, where I help manage large groups of dogs, monitor behavior, handle feeding and medication routines, and make sure every dog is safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m comfortable with nervous dogs, high-energy dogs, dogs who need extra patience, and dogs with specific routines or behavioral needs. I also have experience with dog walking, boarding, administering basic medications, and recognizing when a dog needs some extra space or attention. Currently I am the assistant manager of a doggy daycare, but I know some dogs just don’t love daycare. I want to give those pets a chance to get some energy out! I am available after 2:00pm Monday-Thursday. I would care for pets in client's home since I am doing dog-walking and in home playdate services. Anything to makes it easier for the client.
About: My family has never not had a dog in the home! I take my pup, Maggie, to the dog park and on hikes constantly (little dirt won’t hurt)! I have also been a volunteer at the HSDC since 2020, caring for scared dogs and walking 80+ ibs of muscle. I love to pet sit and cuddle up on the couch with any animal, truly think that is what calms my soul! I also have experience pet sitting hamsters and chameleons, really any animal is a friend of mine. I’d love to come meet your pet and become besties!! I recently graduated from tOSU and currently am living at home with my mom and pup. I am a caregiver for elderly patients and my schedule is kind of all over the place. Check my calendar for my availability and message me with any questions! I love to give love and make sure every animal gets the care it needs! I ensure that all animals get the exercise they need to thrive and stay entertained/ stimulated. Previously, I have home sat while dog sitting and hamster and chameleon sitting (all at once)! I will always respect your privacy and space, making sure to leave the home in the best/ normal conditions.
“Zack was amazing with my cat! This was my first time using Rover, and he went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable with the process. He was extremely communicative while I was away and kept me informed about everything going on with Phileas. The daily photos were such a bonus and really put my mind at ease.”
About: I've been a dog person for as long as I can remember, with over 13 years of hands-on experience covering walks, cuddles, vet visits, and everything in between. I recently lost my beloved pup to cancer, so I know firsthand what it means to love a dog deeply and care for them through every stage of life. I'm experienced with senior dogs and administering medication, and welcome large breeds . My partner Max is also home to help, so your pup is always in good hands. I only host one household at a time and am committed to giving your dog my full attention. Right now we have a pet-free home and will give your pup gets all of our attention. Your dog will be treated like a member of the family from the moment they arrive. Fri-Mon there is someone home at all times, so potty breaks can be kept to whatever schedule your dog requires. We don't often host midweek, but if we do, Tue-Thu we are able to limit alone time to approximately 4-5 hrs. I have a securely fenced yard for outdoor play and potty breaks, and will be present with you dog as long as they are outside (no leaving them alone despite the fence). Dogs are allowed on the furniture and in the bed. I'll stick to whatever routine works best for your pet, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special needs. I'm experienced with senior dogs and large breeds, and I'm happy to share regular updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing.
“Jocelyn is our go-to person when we need someone to care for our 2 cats! She always shows up on time, gives the cats lots of love, and provides good updates during the visits!”
“Danielle was so amazing with our Pittbull babies. They are high energy and she matched them perfectly. She was punctual, gave us detailed updates and lots of pictures. Will definitely be using her again.”
About: As an independent contractor, I make my own schedule. This allows me to operate on a very flexible calendar. In addition to being the go-to care taker for the pets in my circle, I also have a lifestyle that allows for me to go the extra mile and hangout longer, play more, and go for longer walks! I currently make my own schedule. So pet care fits in tremendously. I work as a freelance film and commercial laborer. Being in charge of my calendar allows me to schedule accordingly to take care of your pet! Having two cats of my own, while I can't house animals at my own residence, I am very familiar with the needs of pets. Playtime, treats, head scratches, and the like. I love every animal deeply and with a great respect. I treat every space with the utmost dignity and try to keep as small of a footprint as possible when entering someone's home. I have been house sitting, dog/cat watching for many years now. I look forward to ensuring you have an enjoyable, trustworthy experience when working with me.
About: I have been a vet assistant, I’ve worked with horses, cats, dogs, birds, lizards, and snakes. I always go the extra mile and believe that pets deserve the very best. I was a vet assistant and specialized in “difficult “ pets. I will go at your pets speed, whatever helps them be more comfortable. If your pet needs more time to adjust, I will give them that. I take care of your babies as if they were mine, I will give them love and attention with boundaries. I specialize in difficult cases. If your pet needs a little extra time and attention that’s no problem.

Weekend availability and am available most days after 5pm. I care for my senior cats by making sure they have plenty of attention, play time, and food of course.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Obetz stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Obetz 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 .

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.

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.
