About: I've owned dogs since high-school. I blessed to meet my soul dog 6yrs ago, but unfortunately lost him to cancer a year after we adopted him. Our current pup, Harley is a huge couch potato and loves kids... but she's my husband's doggo. I'm looking for families who can appreciate having a caretaker for their pets, who wants to be best friends with every dog and cat she meets and will love them like family. I work from home Monday- Friday. Which gives me lots of flexibility to provide care for your pets as needed. My job requires me to be detail oriented, good at multitasking and extremely reliable. All traits that I can bring into providing care for your furry best friend! I have great communication skills, can follow pet schedules as required for food/walks/potty breaks etc, and administer medication. As well as providing all the other important needs your pets might have, playtime, snuggles and treats!
About: I've grown up with a dog and a cat. I learned at an early age to feed, brush, and love my cat. I also have two dogs right now that I deeply love. I have a part time job and my hours are flexible. I work 12pm to 6pm. Sometimes I stay over till 11pm for more hours but I would rather look after dogs than stay at work for more hours. I would love on them of course. I will brush them if they want me to. I will walk them and bathe them if needed. I can feed them also. I can play with them.

I do this as a part-time job! Pets are my life I couldn’t imagine not owning any! I have my own pupper and kitty kat!! I am very big on safety!! All doggos must be looked after properly, be given water and plenty of love!! Hope you agree with me!
“My dog always has a great time with Kearia! I also appreciate that she keeps me up to date during her visits. She was also to accommodate my visit last minute, very professional and reliable.”
About: I have had puppies and dogs in my life for the last 32 years. My life would not be complete without them. Currently I have a treeing walker coon hound who is full of energy. My lab just recently passed away. She was almost 13 years old. Being able to help people out by making sure their dogs or cats are loved and exercised would be so rewarding for me. I’m a nurse who works part time two days a week. I’m looking forward to filling the rest of my week with pet care appointments. I will respect your home and privacy and be sure and agree upon set instructions before entering and leaving. I will effectively communicate prior to and after each visit.
About: I truly love animals, and I have real hands-on experience that helps me care for pets of all ages and personalities. I also have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and large breeds. In my home town, I cared for Great Danes, so big dogs don’t intimidate me at all I’m confident, calm, and know how to handle them safely. Overall, I’m sweet, patient, and truly dedicated to making every pet feel safe and loved while you’re away. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can give pets my full attention and adjust easily to your needs. I’m available throughout the week for drop-ins, walks, feeding, medication, and extra cuddle time. I love staying active, so taking dogs out for walks and playtime naturally fits into my daily routine. My open availability lets me focus on each pet individually and make sure they’re getting the care, love, and consistency they deserve. In my home, I make sure every pet has a safe, comfortable space. I have dog crates available, a fully fenced yard for outdoor time, and I always supervise pets when they’re outside. I keep a calm, clean environment and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications they need. When I care for pets in my client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and attention to detail. I focus on keeping your pet’s normal routine, giving them affection, play, and structure. I send regular updates so you always know how they’re doing.
“Christine is amazing. She’s been watching our high needs pets one. We’re out of town for a couple years now. We definitely use her every time we go out of town out of town and will continue to do so!”
About: Hi! My name is Tiana, and I’m 23 years old. I’m currently studying Pre-Veterinary Animal Sciences at The Ohio State University and working toward my bachelor’s degree. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have experience caring for all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, and even farm animals! I also have previous experience working in a veterinary clinic, so I’m comfortable administering oral medications and caring for pets who may be older, anxious, or have extra needs. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. I always do my best to follow each pet’s normal routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! As of august 25th I will be back fulltime at the ohio state university. I have classes on campus from 8am-3pm. I offer pet care for morning, late afternoon, and evening, only on WEEKDAYS. However on WEEKENDS, HOLIDAYS, and LONG WEEKENDS, I am available for 24/7 care! I will send texts, pictures, and videos of all activities that your pet and I will do. From playing together in your living room to even snagging a pic of potty time, I’ll make sure that you know your pet is being cared for and safe. I will also give daily updates and tell you what we did for that day!
About: I have had some sort of pet most of my life! I've had birds, fish, hamsters, dogs and cats. I can potty train puppies too!! I can make my schedule flexible to fit the needs of your pet(s). I currently have 2 dogs and a cat at home but my son can take care of them if I need to travel. I will do everything I can to adhere to your current pets schedule such as feeding times and amounts as well as walks and/or yard play time!
“First time using Kylie to watch our dog and went very well. We will definitely look to rebook for our next trip. Did well with our dog, kept the house tidy, and was very informative. Highly recommend.”
About: The past couple of years, I have been house sitting which turned into dog sitting for a few family friends and have always had positive experiences so decided to take my talents (if you will lol) and bring myself to Rover! I have had a couple dogs growing up who have now passed away due to illness/old age but loved being around/taking care of them! I also understand dogs are people's children and will treat yours as such. I'm currently working via laptop freelancing so my schedule is very flexible. For in home stays, I am used to house sitting as well as taking care of animals so would return your home and animal as you left them. The only times I would really be out of the home would be to go to the gym or grab food so I would be attentive to your dog's needs! I am very easy to adapt to any situation and have had experience with multiple different breeds. If there is anything you are worried about, I would just be a text or a call away. I am very chill, responsible, and will make sure your dog is completely taken care of so you can enjoy your time away, stress-free.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life, and I currently take care of my senior Maltipoo. I’ve been dog-sitting and taking care of other people’s pets since I was a teenager. I currently only work a few days a week, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! Any stop in or walk will be treated as if they were my own pet. I truly just love animals, especially dogs, and I love getting to know their different personalities. Exercise and play time are so important for dogs, and I’m happy to help out with that!!
“Riley was amazing and took great care of our babies. She made our trip much more enjoyable knowing our dogs were well taken care of. She kept us updated and sent pictures. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve dog sat my families and friends animals while they’ve been out of town while also taking them on walks and giving them the attention they need.

I have plenty of time to drop by and check on them and also take them on walks I have two dogs myself who require daily medication, attention as well as taking them on walks, car rides and more. I’ve had dogs my entire life from puppy stage all the way to end of life. Whatever your pet needs I am there
About: I grew up caring for medium and large dogs, and for the past few years I’ve been a devoted cat dad. Friends often ask me to look after their pets because they know I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m comfortable with a variety of pet personalities and routines, and I take pride in making dogs and cats feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their people are away. I am currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible. I am generally available any day of the week and can accommodate most scheduling requests as long as I am given advanced notice. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by trying to follow their normal routines to the best of my ability. In your home, I make sure they get the right balance of attention, exercise, and quiet time. I handle feeding, walks, litter care, play time, and any special instructions with care and consistency. I always check in with updates so you know how your pets are doing, and I aim to create a calm, safe environment where dogs and cats feel relaxed while you’re away.
“Cas was awesome with our dogs! We have 4 territorial little dogs and Cas was on time, fed them dinner and gave them lots of love. 10/10 recommend We will be using Cas’s help again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Plain City
Angela was probably the best decision we ever made to take care of our brand new puppies who had never been separated from us before and we’re both still under 20 weeks. They loved her right away and they were super receptive to her from the start. She was able to help us take care of them when one was sick while we were gone, and she kept us up-to-date every moment of the day and went above and beyond more than we can even say for our pups and our home while we were gone. We will absolutely use her again when we go on our next trip. 10 million stars because I’m only allowed giving five above!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Plain City is $23 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Plain City 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
