“Sidlali was great at our first meeting, and very patient with the possibly-overly-detailed introduction I gave her to our cats and their litter situation. I look forward to her taking care of our cats next month!”
“I can't reccomend Taylor enough! She took such good care of my cats and lizard while we were on vacation for a week. We have a very shy and standoffish cat and it was clear to me that Taylor made them all feel so safe and comfortable based on how willing the cats were to let her snap pics of them every day - shes a great photographer too! Great communication, punctual, flexible (thank you again for feeding and keeping an eye on our bearded dragon!), and just all around a wonderful sitter who we will absolutely be booking with again. I would trust her in my home and with my pets any day. Thank you Taylor!”
“Kayla has been terrific with our Rocky. He just loves her! She recently stayed at our home for a week and while caring for our pup, she was respectful of our home and belongings. She also communicates well and is prompt with responses. We love the pictures she sent each day so we knew Rocky was being well-cared for and having a good time.”
“Our dogs had a great time with Travis. Our pups are usually a little hesitant with strangers but they came right up to Travis and wanted pets. When we got home, Jack actually looked around like wait a minute, where’s Travis. We will book with him every time.”
“Maurissa was fantastic with our fur babies! We have 3 large dogs and she was fantastic with them. Always on time and played with them. They were happy with her and that makes me so happy. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Charity did a great job handling my nervous little guy. She was very patient and understanding and made sure to persist until he received the cate he needed for his drop in”
“Bansi was wonderful with our puppy! She dropped in for a quick visit with a couple potty breaks and a play. Communication was excellent - would definitely recommend her! We'll be using her again in the future!”
“Second time having Justice watch my dog, Dave and she was great again! Dave is a little high maintenance with being older and having a construction zone/mud pit for a back yard. I appreciated the extra care she gave to make him feel comfortable while I was away!”
“Danielle is great! Went out of town for a week and she dropped in daily to feed and check on our cats. She constantly updated me about the pets and followed instructions we left for them. She is great!”
“Thelma is a nervous dog, Ashliegh did a great job letting Thelma get comfortable with her during the meet and greet. Judging by the photos, Thelma felt quite at ease during the drop in!”
“My dog always wants more visits from Jamie! She has gone above and beyond on this last visit. Jamie noticed how much my dog was shedding, she got out the dog brush and brushed some of the loose hair out. Thank you!”
“Ashlyn is the absolute best! Her taking care of my dog on my long unpredictable work days gives me peace of mind. My dog always looks so happy in the pictures she sends me in the rover card. Thank you Ashlyn for all you do for Buckeye and myself! Oh”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 18 years and truly love spending time with animals of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, a puppy, or a senior, I’ll provide dependable care, lots of attention, and regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently work full-time in the Genetics Lab at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. My schedule allows me to provide pet care after work on weekdays and with flexible availability on weekends. I’m committed to being dependable, communicative, and making sure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I treat every home with respect and make sure your pet feels loved, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also provide regular photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands.
“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!”

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 Pickerington 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 Pickerington 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 Pickerington with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
