About: My husband and I both grew up learning to care for our family dogs. As a teenager I also was a regular pet sitter for neighbors. We have two dogs of our own now so we are very familiar with caring for all dogs. 😊 I am a stay at home mom so I am home and able to stay with your pup all day. I will occasionally leave the house a couple mornings a week to do activities with my son but if you are uncomfortable with me leaving while caring for your pet I am happy to stay home! We have two dogs of our own so your fur baby will never be lonely! Fully fenced yard to play in and we can take them on walks through the neighborhood as well. Let me know if they are working on any specific training and I can practice with them daily. We have two extra crates and multiple bedrooms.
About: I have taken care of animals since i was a child! I personally had 4+ dogs/cats at a time growing up since I was 5 years old and even now! As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home the majority of the day and night, which allows me to give consistent attention and supervision. I only step out briefly for school drop-off/pick-up or short errands, typically no more than a few hours total. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches and will be treated like part of our daily routine, with regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of interaction throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on 2 fully fenced acres, providing plenty of secure space to run and explore while always supervised. When indoors, pets are part of our family environment — relaxing, playing, or cuddling in a calm and clean home. I carefully follow each dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe and at ease. My goal is to create a structured but loving environment where your pup feels right at home.
“Kelley took wonderful care of my 4 cats while I was away! We scheduled a video call to go over everything beforehand and I could tell right away that I chose the right sitter! She was very kind and personable, and I felt reassured that my babies would be in good hands. From the first visit to the last, she communicated well, was very responsive and shared tons of cute photos! I will absolutely be reaching out to Kelley again for any future pet sitting needs.”

“Hollie was great. I have used 4 different sitters on Rover so far and she was definitely the best. I told her the times could be flexible but she still always communicated with me. Will definitely use again.”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jordyn. She took amazing care of my senior dog, Lucky, who is both blind and deaf, and treated him with so much patience, love, and understanding. Before the actual sitting, Jordyn even came by to meet Lucky and go over his routines and special instructions, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing they truly cared about getting everything right. It’s not easy to find someone who understands the needs of an older pet, but Jordyn went above and beyond — keeping Lucky comfortable, calm, and safe the entire time.”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs for 19 years now. Many friends and family members have relied on me to care for their pets throughout the years!! I work part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your dogs and animals. Im available weekends and mornings during the week I can watch dogs and cats in your own home. I will always keep your pet company and make sure the are well fed and taken care of!

About: I’ve always grown up with atleast two animals, so I have a huge soft spot for them! I know the ups and downs of dogs and cats! I usually work Mondays through Fridays at my job. I have time on weekends and mornings and nights through the week to watch and takeout dogs and cats! With caring for pets in my home I would keep them downstairs mainly in the kitchen and living room area, I have a large backyard for dogs to use and space to take for walks! With clients home I would ask what their preferred methods are!
“Cheyenne is great! I was very skeptical trying Rover. But I’m glad I did because Cheyenne was attentive and super sweet with our Cleo. Look forward to working with her in the future.”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was born. I was raised with a dog trainer as a mother, and that’s how I ended up being an animal lover. I have a Bachelors in Equine Studies, and had horses until I moved to South Carolina. I am a dog groomer full time and have five fur babies of my own at home. Dogs are pretty much my whole life and I love to take care of them any age, training or special needs they may have. My husband is allergic to cats so I can’t have any home but would love to get my fill helping take care of yours! I do work full time but can be as flexible as possible for your fur kids needs! I can always do early morning pop ins or walks as well as evening/night times! Just let me know what you need and I can try to help make it work! At the moment I don’t do overnights but may be available to in my home boarding in the future! I can do whatever your pet needs! If your pup needs to walk alone and can be reactive I have plenty on experience with it. If you have an energetic pup I have one of my own if they get along can tire each other right out(if they get along of course). I also have access to a fenced in area if your pup is good off leash to take them too. I will do whatever you fur kid needs to the best of my abilities and what you want!

“Mary Kay was wonderful with my service dog Sunshine and his many “rules.” She was personable and kind, and he took to her instantly. I will definitely be having her back with Sunshine soon!”

“Sierra absolutely came through in the clutch. Needed her help on the shortest notice and she figuratively saved the day. Our greatest appreciation and sincere thanks for always being there for us and our pets.”

“This was our first time using this app. I’m glad we did, we found someone that took great care of our dogs while we were away. It’s a plus that she lives close by too haha. Our dogs loved her and to have some company while we were gone. We greatly appreciate Nicole and will definitely recommend her and use her services again. Thank you again Nicole!”

About: I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to where I'm currently living my landlord doesn't allow dogs. I have grown up with a dog and it is hard not having one around. My childhood dog was Bruno who was a Boston Terrier. When he passed away it was devastating, but we had the opportunity to adopt Gizmo who was Pug and lived with me up until the middle of high school. After Gizmo passed away, we adopted Odie who was another Boston Terrier. We rescued him from California, and he brought so much love and joy. Years later due to his health issues and age, he eventually went to doggy heaven. I love having the opportunity through Rover to be around dogs. All instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your fur buddy happy! My schedule is flexible when it comes to fitting pet care into my daily/weekly routine. I can accommodate to make sure the pets routines are consistent with having a similar schedule in place. During the meet and greet is when I like to find more about the pet, when they are to be fed, bathroom breaks, playtime, exercise, and sleep. It is important to have a schedule in place, so nothing is forgotten about and helps to keep everything structured. Whether the service being drop-in visits, or dog walking. I will be transparent, always verifying with the client's first, and asking for all necessary information. For example, care instructions, owner contact information, and emergency contact information for every stay.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ridgeville 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 Ridgeville 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.

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 Ridgeville 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.
