“Perfect sitter. Very patient and understanding. We had a location that was hard to access abd she was amazing. Always asked questions and kept is in the loop during our family emergency. It gives us peace of mind while we are away”
About: I have experience with various different types of animals including cats, and dogs. I love how special and unique each animal is and I love to get to know them and getting to know their personalities. I am working full time and going to school I typically don't work mornings and a couple days during the week I am off and I can stop by and check on them throughout the week. I do anything and everything I can do to take the best care of them, and I always make their health top priority. And treat them like royalty and babies
About: I grew up with all sorts of animals my whole life and have always taken great care of them. I also worked as a vet tech for 2 years on small and large animals so I am well equipped in animal health knowledge. I am well trusted by family and friends to take care of pets of all shapes and sizes! I currently have school from 8-4 on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays. I work mornings on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6-2. I am happy to provide any service that fits into that schedule. I am also able to provide bathroom breaks on my lunches! I am flexible with all sorts of care. I am comfortable caring for animals that are indoor, outdoor, or crated. I am happy to take your dogs for walks as well!
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Friends and family regularly trust me to walk, feed, and look after their pets. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies, senior dogs, and those with special routines or needs. I focus on keeping pets safe and happy, while always treating them like my own. I’m also attentive to instructions, punctual, and happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, check ins, and playtime. I am happy to adjust my routine to help accommodate for your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special needs. I create a calm and loving environment. I’m attentive on walks, mindful of surroundings, and make sure pets are secure at all times.
“Jennifer was so good with our kitties and I really trusted her in our house with our babies. She was very kind and she called if there was a problem like our fire alarm went off and she called immediately to make sure everything was OK. I would 10 out of 10 recommend her to take care of your babies. This is my first experience with rover and it was very good.”
About: As a teacher, I’m used to being responsible, patient, and attentive to the needs of others every day. I bring that same care and consistency to every pet I look after. I’m dependable, detail oriented, and will treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. I also have my own large, overprotective dog with a big personality, so I understand how important it is to find someone who truly takes the time to understand a pet’s individual needs. I know firsthand that some dogs can be misunderstood and that finding the right person who respects their boundaries, routines, and quirks makes all the difference. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or simply needs a little extra patience, I’ll take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a teacher, so I have great availability on weekends and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening drop-ins on weekdays. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits both your pet’s needs and your routine. I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable when they can stay in their own familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their schedule as consistent as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, walks, litter box care, and plenty of attention and affection based on their individual personality. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and boundaries. Some pets love lots of interaction, while others need a little more patience and space to warm up. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, while also providing you with updates and peace of mind.
“Heidi is the best of the best! Besides the fact that our dog absolutely loves spending time with her- she is so accommodating with our schedules; she’s flexible and excellent at communicating. And always willing to help out when she can. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Brittany was detail-oriented, communicative, and followed my care instructions carefully. She sent updates with photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated her care for my pets. Will book her again!”
“Brandi was amazing to work with. She communicated with me from the very beginning, asked thoughtful questions at our meet and greet, and provided my dog with great care. I never worried while I was away from home. This was my first time using Rover. If it's as easy as Brandi makes it, I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Built trust with pets through patience, consistency, and positive interaction. Maintained safe, clean, and comfortable environments for animals at all times. Monitored pets for changes in behavior, appetite, or health and reported concerns promptly. On weekends, pet care is a regular and prioritized part of my routine. I plan my schedule to allow enough time for feeding, walking, cleaning, and quality interaction with the pets. I make sure they are fed on time, taken out for exercise, and given attention and play to keep them mentally stimulated. I also monitor their behavior and health, ensuring they are comfortable and safe throughout the day. My weekends are flexible, which allows me to be fully attentive to pets’ needs without rushing. I care for pets by following their established routines, ensuring proper feeding, exercise, cleanliness, and attention. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication with owners.
“I was a little nervous about leaving my cat for the first time, but Taylor put my mind completely at ease. She took such great care of Benny, followed every instruction perfectly, and was prompt. She sent me updates and the sweetest pictures that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Truly a 10/10 experience!”

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.

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 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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

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.
