“Maddie was very punctual with my cats! She took great care to ensure they were well taken care of, and she took great photos which let us all relax knowing they were well cared for in our absence! Would definitely have her care for them again!”
“Oh my gosh - where do I start. I interviewed a few people because I’m a helicopter mom with some pups who are scared of fireworks. Michelle at our meet and greet had the dogs and I both so calm! We planned one visit but when my dog was stressed with the fireworks on our furbo camera, she came back as his little hero for an unplanned second visit. We are so so grateful and would recommend Michelle to literally anyone. THANK YOU”
“Kyra was patient and willing to work with our reactive dogs! She was on time for our appointment and very friendly. She listened to our instructions carefully and carried out professionally. She was calm and loving to both our pets. Will definitely be recommending her to our friends and family and will definitely be using her services again!”
“How we love Marae!! She is so kind and took such good care of our pups! I feel like I overloaded her with a lot of information to only care for our dogs for a day, but she followed everything so beautifully and went above and beyond. The photos helps me be confident that my dogs are taking care of. Honestly, my dogs are really chill, but I could tell in every picture that they were so comfortable with her and that meant the world to me. Please please book with her if you get the opportunity! I can’t wait to work with her again.”
“Kara was a great sitter for Blu while we were away for a bit longer than we ever have been before. She communicated with me very well and gave great updates and pictures during each visit! I would definitely use her again in the future if we needed a dog sitter.”
“Maurissa did a late request drop in visit for my dogs and even made time to do a meet and greet first. She was on time, communicated during and after the visit was complete. We will definitely reach out again!”
“Very friendly, readily available, and great communicators. I felt like my pet was happy and safe in their care and comfortable with them in our home. They even brought in a package for us from our doorstep. Great pet-sitters and we will definitely book with them again in the future!”
“Madelyn did a great job on the Drop in Visits for my fur babies! She sent me updates and made sure they were well taken care of. I definitely recommend her and will be booking with her in the future.”
“Melanie has helped me a few times now and has gone above and beyond for my pets. I only asked for dogs to be fed and let outside, but she cleaned up pet messes, and even scooped a litter box for me! The dogs love her and I will definitely be hiring her again.”
“Pat was a lifesaver! We have a senior chihuahua with special needs who is very difficult to work with to say the least. Pat was very patient, kind, and understanding of her needs. She showed up every day on time and gave our little fur baby lots of love. Pat is like one of the family and we will be calling her in the future!”
“Travis is going to be my go to guy whenever I need a pup sitter! He was terrific; I got updates and pictures and funny stories about what my dogs were up to during his visits, and my dogs were always so happy in the pictures. Travis was very prompt and conscientious, two qualities I admire very much. If you are on the fence about having a person come into your home and take care of your pups, jump off that fence and hire Travis!!! 😀”
“Baileigh was such a kind and caring dog sitter! She was so accommodating and flexible to our dog’s special needs. The communication and updates gave us such peace of mind the entire time we were away ! She was also very respectful of our home and very considerate.”
“Kylie provided phenomenal care for our cat Winnie and we will definitely reach out to her the next time we travel! We had no worries for Winnie’s care. We knew through Kyle’s many photos and the consistent communication with us that all was well.❤️”

About: Hi! I’m Brittany, and I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. As the proud owner of a happy 5-year-old French Bulldog, I understand that pets are family and deserve patience, love, and personalized care. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their daily routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, administering basic medications, and caring for dogs with unique personalities and needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages, giving you peace of mind throughout your time away. My Services 🐾 Dog Boarding 🐾 House Sitting 🐾 Drop-In Visits 🐾 Dog Walking Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday life. As the owner of a 5 yr old Frenchie, my days already revolve around walks, feeding, playtime, enrichment, and making sure my own dog is happy and healthy. Because caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, it’s easy to incorporate additional pets into my daily routine. I plan my schedule so every dog gets the attention, exercise, and one-on-one care they deserve. Whether it’s an early morning walk, midday potty break, afternoon play session, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet receives consistent care and plenty of affection. I truly love spending time with animals! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to keep pets comfortable, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and lots of love and attention. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality because some dogs love to play all day, while others are happiest relaxing with belly rubs and cuddles. In a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would want for my own. I make sure pets feel safe in their familiar environment, keep everything clean and tidy, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so owners can enjoy their time away without worrying. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. They receive plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and a safe, comfortable place to relax. I keep plenty of clean toys, orthopedic beds and blankets on hand so your pet feels at home. My goal is always to make them feel loved and at home.

I cannot recommend Janell enough! I have such peace of mind when it comes to her checking in on our cats while we're away. She takes the time to play with them and even our shy cat comes out for her! I love that it's never a simple refill their food and water and go. She actually spends time with our babies and I love that!

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 .

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.
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 Pickerington. 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.
