“I have a 12 yo German Shepard. He's an old man now. We were going away for New Years and our normal sitter wasn't available. I was apprehensive about leaving him with someone new. Karin was spectacular. She was attentive to his needs and careful about his 'age' related shortcomings. She has a pup of her own and a young son who loved my boy. Karin sent plenty of pics of him and was very communicative during his stay, asking questions to make sure behaviors were normal and making sure he'd tolerate the environment there! I don't know how many stays my old man has left in him, but Karin is definitely the person I'd want watching him when I leave!”

“Jennifer and her family made Cosmo feel at home and I could tell he didn’t even want to leave when it was time to get him, so they definitely loved on him plenty and gave him lots of play time. They also accommodated me on a shorter notice which was so helpful!”

“I picked up my dog, Snow, from Joanne's house and she was exhausted! She seemed to have had the time of her life and was a little reluctant to leave. Joanne is great at communicating, and I love that she has children and other dogs for Snow to play with. I will definitely use her again, maybe even just for Snow to have some time to play with her friends! ”

“Debby and Randy watched my 2 dogs Clio and Sola. Less than 2 weeks before our trip Clio went blind, they agreed to keep them both anyway. I felt so much better knowing they were in private home care similar to their home routine. Debby and Randy made it possible to enjoy our vacation, I recommend them highly.”

About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and experience providing care for others. I understand the importance of building trust, following routines, and paying close attention to individual needs. My background caring for adults with developmental disabilities has strengthened my ability to be responsible, observant, and compassionate—qualities that are just as important when caring for pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their personality, preferences, and comfort level. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm environment, I adapt my care to meet their needs. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering medications when needed, and providing extra attention to puppies, senior pets, or pets that may be anxious while their owners are away. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, loved, and well cared for throughout their stay. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I have experience providing dependable care for others and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to individual needs. I enjoy spending time with animals and am comfortable incorporating feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication administration, and companionship into my day. I believe pets thrive when they have structure, exercise, and plenty of affection, and I take pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in my client's home, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow the owner's instructions for feeding, exercise, medications, and any special care needs. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while ensuring pets have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for. If providing care in my home, I create a safe, pet-friendly environment with regular feeding schedules, exercise, supervised play, fresh water, and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and needs to help them feel comfortable and reduce any stress from being away from home.

The only reason I’m not leaving 5 stars for Heather is because an already scheduled drop off date had to be changed by her at the very last minute which caused me to have to really scramble to get my dog Maggie to her by an alternate time the next night. Other than that I was very pleased and will book with her if I have future boarding needs. Heather took very good care of Maggie who has some separation anxiety issues and made her feel comfortable. Maggie requires medication in the form of a pill 3x day which Heather agreed to and took care of. Correspondence and pictures were adequate during the stay. All toys and other items that I left with her were returned when I picked Maggie up at the end of my trip. Once again I would recommend Heather.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ridgeville home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Ridgeville.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Ridgeville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

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 .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
