“Sydney took the best care of my cat while I was away! She sent me lots of pictures of my cat and played with him plenty. He can be apprehensive to new people, but he warmed up to her right away because she was so good with him.”
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.
About: Hi!🫶🏼 I Would love to help care for your animals in any capacity. I have extensive experience with animals and have worked at a dog boarding kennel in the past in addition to growing up with pets. I have worked with aggressive dogs and am comfortable reading a dog’s cues to prevent escalation. I currently have a Bernese mountain dog who is always down for a play date and a cat who tolerates her antics haha. Bonus- I’m an ER nurse, far from a vet tech, but good for med admin if needed! With that, I do work 3 shifts a week(12 hours) that vary. So while my schedule can be sporadic, it can also be very open! I work full time 3 days a week and use rover sitters myself for those days. My schedule varies, but I am great for last minute needs as long as I’m not working! I try to stick to your pet’s routine and rules! I am also very good at recognizing body language/behaviors and therefore can prevent “incidents” from occurring like aggression on walks. I’m also happy to bring along my Berner for a play date if you’d like!
“Shannon has done such a great job taking care of my pup Walter for the past couple of weeks! She is punctual, professional, and informative. I would recommend Shannon’s pet care to any and all people in Columbus!”
About: I have 3 dogs that I have been taking care of for about 10 plus years. I’ve also watched many friends and family’s pers for them, I do have skills in training puppies and some experience in senior care. I am as of recently unemployed, I decided to pivot into my passion for animals and pursue dog sitting and walking full time so any day or time of the week is perfect for me!! My 3 babies do have a fenced in yard, however is not the biggest so I take them on walks about every day. We try to do bath week at least twice month along with a nail trim. I also do cleanup weekly since there’s 3 of them, I always treat a clients pet as my own and give them the tender love and care they deserve because I understand that every baby has their different needs!!
“JoVonna took such great care of our boy while we were out of town. We could rest so much easier knowing someone had checked on him and gave him love.”
About: I have three dogs currently, two pitbulls and an american bully aged 5, 3 and 2. I've dealt with dogs of all ages and sizes and love every dog I come across. I currently work M-F, 7:30-3. I can let the dogs out before work and as soon as I get home during the week, and as often as needed over the weekend. I have 3 fur babies and a 2.5 year old son who would love giving doggies lovins! My dogs get crated when we are not home so I ask you provide a crate if necessary!
“My cat loved having Savannah come over every day. This is the happiest my cat has been after I took a long trip. She also helped me out by bringing in some packages that arrived while I was gone. I would be happy to use Savannah's services again in the future.”
“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:)”
About: I’ve been raised with animals my whole life! I have had various cats, fish, dogs and, even a hedgehog over the years. I was also responsible for walking the two family dogs. I’ve pet sat several times for family friends in the past. I love cats and dogs, (of any size) and have true compassion for any animal I meet, as if they were my own pet. Let me know if you have any questions! I work Monday-Friday, 9-5. I am flexible to stop by early mornings, after work, and on the weekends! I’m happy to work with you to determine the best schedule that fits your pets needs. If I am in your home to complete a service the utmost caution would be exercised to respect your space while caring for your furry friend!
“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!”
“Lexi is a five star sitter. My two scaredy cats— typically who like to hide from strangers— warmed up fairly quick. Lexi is extremely communicative, friendly, and thoughtful. Left my home better than I left it when I went on my trip (cleaned the area around food and water as well as the litter box). An absolute recommend from me!”
About: I have two chronically ill cats, both of which require regular medicine. One has an inhaler as well. I know how to get cats to take their medicine gently and while minimizing distress. I grew up caring for cats, dogs, and farm animals. I love them all, and hope to care for yours. I'm currently working second shift, so I have time for all the pets from 9am to 2:30pm. A little pick me up before my lab work begins. I can travel wherever is needed. I don't mind taking the time to complete your instructions to the fullest extent. Medicine, food, walks, or playtime.
“Stephanie is amazing with Ladybird, my senior dog who somehow still has triple-espresso puppy energy. Stephanie handles all that enthusiasm with total calm, care, and competence. She’s reliable, communicative, and just so sweet to Ladybird. Five stars, no notes. Highly recommend!”
About: PLEASE NOTE: I am moving out of state following the week of the 4th. I grew up with 2 medium sized springer spaniels and have had multiple cats my whole life. I love getting outside and being active but also have experience cat/dog/house sitting for multiple week periods. I am currently on the job hunt for a full time role, so my schedule is open and flexible for your needs and expectations. I enjoy being active as well, so that is something I work into my schedule daily. I currently have a 10 month old kitten, I always clean his water bowl each day and ensure his food bowl is always filled (he isn’t incentivized by food quite yet! Haha). He has a robo litter box that I maintain as well.
About: Over the past few years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for a variety of pets, each with their own unique needs and personalities. My pet sitting experience has not only deepened my love for animals but has also taught me the importance of patience, attention to detail, and compassion. One of my favorite experiences was caring for a senior Labrador named Max. He needed daily medication and short, gentle walks due to arthritis. I made it a point to provide extra care and comfort, ensuring he felt loved and secure while his owners were away. His wagging tail at every visit was a constant reminder of why I love this work. I’m currently working a part-time job so I have plenty of time to spend with your pups! I’m available every weekend and weekends 6am to 2pm I try my best to keep everything clean or the way that it was before and make sure that everything is safe for the pups

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 Obetz 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.
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 .
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.
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.
To find sitters in Obetz with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Obetz. On Rover:

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.
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.
