“Angela is fantastic! She was quick to respond to my request and questions, and she sent me a variety of pictures during each drop-in. Angela was very engaging and had a ball playing with my dog and cats! I haven’t seen my senior cat play like that is years:-) I highly recommend Angela!!”
“Kristi was wonderful! We have 8 cats and I could tell they liked her stopping by. She was so good talking to them and sending us pics and videos. We will be using her again!!”
“Shelly is reliable and makes caring for your pet a priority, even when cold weather, car trouble, or other unforseen obstacles arise. I definitely trust and recommend her !!”
“Bonnie is fantastic ! She has been so great with my puppy Frankie ! He is full of energy and she has been a life saver when I have to work all day. No only does help him continue to learn his commands but she genuinely loves him and I couldn’t ask for a better person to care for Frankie”
“Kyra was really amazing! I was gone for 2 weeks and she was so consistent with check-ins. She took great care of my kitties. She is a lovely person and did a meet and greet prior to me leaving which was awesome. Highly recommended and I'm sure I will book with her again!!”
“Janel always does exactly what is needed. I have piece of mind at every drop in and overnight stay knowing that Oliver is well taken care of. She is always my first choice for a sitter!”
“Maria was absolutely wonderful for my pup!!! She was friendly, respectful, and very attentive to her needs. I am a new pup mama and she made me feel very comfortable leaving my pup with her. She was very responsible and read my very thorough instructions for my pup. I will definitely be choosing Maria again! :)”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I’ve had Oliver (frenchie) since he was a puppy, so I’m used to everything from training to daily routines. He requires allergy medication, which means I’m comfortable giving meds and paying close attention to a dog’s needs. I also frequently care for my family’s three dogs (two Frenchies and an English bulldog), so I’m great at handling multiple pups and making sure each one gets the attention they deserve. I’m currently working 3rd shift, so if you’re needing someone in the morning to let out your furry pet I can! Or if you want someone home all day with your pet, that works perfect for me as well! I can do walks during the days (after a little nap). I would say I’m pretty flexible if told ahead of time! I live in an apartment and do have a dog named Oliver. Oliver pretty much gets along with other dogs! If you’d rather your dog not be around another, I’d be more than willing to stay with your pets! My cousin would love watching my dog. I love meeting new fur babies and would love to help whenever I can with whatever you need!
About: I have lived with and cared for both cats and dogs my entire life! Caring for animals is something I take seriously, and I always make sure they feel at home. It is my privilege to give your pets a safe, fun, and stress free experience when you can’t be with them. I balance a full time role with flexible availability to give your pets consistent, loving care during the week. I also have open availability on the weekends. I provide hands on, attentive care whether pets are in my home or theirs. I stick to their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved by giving them consistent attention, keeping their environment clean, and treating them like my own pets
“Erin was fantastic with our three older dogs during her drop-in visits this week. Taking care of senior pups requires a certain level of attentiveness, and Erin delivered. She was incredibly punctual, showing up right on time for every single visit, which kept our dogs on their necessary routine. Her communication was prompt and detailed, giving us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely work with Erin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
About: My family has had dogs ever since I was a little kid! Once I moved to Columbus to attend OSU and medical school, I successfully fostered 5 dogs through the Franklin County Shelter. Moving to Columbus made me miss my furry friend back home, so I would love to help the ones around me! I am currently a third year medical student and have availability during most weekends to get your pup the time and attention he/she needs! Occasionally I will have free weeks as well. I currently live in an apartment with plenty of grass just outside my door. When pets come and stay, I always dog proof the home to make sure they don’t get into anything they’re not supposed to!
“Sabrina !!!! She is the best, I’ve had recent things come up where I’ve needed last minute help with my wild boy, and she has been more than accommodating! She sends pictures, updates, and hammy really seems to love her company. She is a life savor !!”
About: I’m a dog (and cat!) mom looking for a fun way to keep myself accountable on my health journey! I’m a 41 year old mom to a teenage boy, a 9 year old yorkie mix (Severus), and 8 cats! I’ve been on a journey to better myself for the past year and one thing I make sure I do is get my steps in. I thought it would be a great idea to put myself out there to make some new dog friends and help keep me (and the doggos) getting our exercise in! I work full time from home Monday through Friday from 7am to 330pm. My walking availability is any time after my work day through the week, and open to anytime on the weekends. For sitting/drop ins, please inquire. For boarding, pets will be with me all day and night. I have 10+ years of experience caring for animals, my house is full of love, treats and toys! If you book me for services, you can be assured that same love will be given to your furry friend. Feeding schedules followed as provided by pet parent to ensure your pup is getting the required amount of food. My dog eats freely except when I’m boarding as to not disrupt any schedules. I currently have one dog (Severus), who is a yorkie mix and 10 total cats, some indoor/outdoor/mix. Our home gets hectic but we love our animals and can’t imagine life any differently.
About: I have experience caring for pets by providing feeding, exercise, and basic health monitoring. I am responsible, attentive, and committed to ensuring animals are safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. My regular work schedule is from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM. During this time, my daughter, who is a responsible high school senior, is home daily by noon. She enjoys spending time with animals and will be available to supervise, play with, and care for your pets in my absence. I ensure that all pets are well attended to and comfortable throughout the day. My regular work schedule is from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

“Kyra was great and professional, she took wonderful care of our cat. It was our first time using Rover and first time with Kyra, and we're glad we found her. We'll definitely have her back. Thanks Kyra!”
About: I have been petting sitting on my own for several years for friends and neighbors. Word has continued to get out, about how great everyone’s experience was from top to bottom so I thought I’d make a go at it here! I am a PATH certified CTRI working with equines and vulnerable populations. I currently train and handle our horse herd there and am a very confident and gentle equestrian, but firm when needed. This translates well to pet sitting often as animals have a way of knowing who they can trust and I’m patient enough to give them the space to figure that out. I currently work part time for a non-profit working w horses and vulnerable populations. I am a riding instructor and photography coordinator. It’s a dream job w a lot Of flexibility currently for me to add in side work I do not currently offer services in my home but have cared for animals in others homes. I understand how important it is to read body language and respect others space and time
About: I’ve taken care of pets for family friends and colleagues since high school. I love to go on long walks, runs and play around in parks or backyards. I’m currently work in before and after school care so I am free 9:30am-3 pm on weekdays but I am happy to do check up’s early in the morning and late in the evenings. On Saturday’s I’m free all day except for 8-2 and Sundays I am free all day. In clients homes I will care for your pets in anyway they need whether that is cuddling inside all day or playing in the backyard. On walks I will ensure the safety of your pet by double checking the leash/harness and catering the walk to their liking.

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 Plain City 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.

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.
