About: I have been taking care of many kinds of dogs and cats since I was 8 years old. I have worked at a vet and I now work at a humane society. I have three dogs and a cat of my own! I can help potty train litter train or just regular train! I am currently a student at the university of Toledo so I have classes Monday through Thursday but I have break in between my classes! I also am free on Fridays and most weekends! I have a nice big backyard and three other dogs for your fur babies to play with! I can help train your pet if need as well! I also live in town so nice long walks are a must!
About: Over the past 36 years, I have had 7 dogs (2 that lived to 17 years old and required a lot of care and medication), 1 bird, 1 bunny (which was on hospice when I adopted her) and multiple fish. I was on the Board of Directors for the Humane Society of Hancock County and fostered over 10 puppies throughout the years. I have also gone through training courses with multiple dogs. I am responsible, reliable, and hard-working. I am looking forward to spending some time with your animals! I am currently not working, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am available most days and weekends throughout the day and evening and can do multiple visits per day. I currently have three dogs that are crate-trained, so I am very comfortable with getting dogs in and out of their cages. I am also comfortable with walking your dog on a leash or supervising them when playing within a fenced yard. I will treat your home as if it's my own and leave it in the same condition as I found it.
About: I have recent hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments in professional settings. I also have a lifetime of experience as a dog and cat owner and lover! As a recent doggy daycare employee, I've safely managed groups of dogs in daycare, supervised structured play, monitored body language to prevent conflicts, and provided individualized care based on each dog's needs and personality. I also work as a dog handler for a professional goose management company, where I handle border collies in outdoor environments while maintaining focus, safety, and reliable leash skills around wildlife, distractions, and changing conditions. This work has strengthened my confidence handling energetic working dogs in public spaces. My experience includes: - Supervising group play and monitoring canine body language - Individual walks and exercise - Feeding, fresh water, and medication support with instructions - Cleaning kennels and maintaining a safe, sanitary environment - Crate rotations and rest breaks - Reinforcing good manners with positive interactions - Caring for puppies, senior dogs, and high-energy breeds I love every dog like it is my own and am ready to take care of your loved one when needed! My schedule is generally very flexible! I do have a few shorter recurring commitments during the weekdays, but I have availability before and after them, as well as on evenings and weekends. If you're looking for care on a specific day or time, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to work with you to find something that fits both of our schedules whenever possible. I always try to keep pets on the routine they're most comfortable with. Whether I'm in your home or caring for your pet during a walk or drop-in visit, I'll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any special needs or preferences. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe and relaxed while you're away. My professional experience in dog daycare has taught me to pay close attention to body language, energy levels, and individual personalities. Some dogs want to play nonstop, while others just want a calm companion and a good walk. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection while also keeping safety my top priority. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Chloe is beyond amazing! My wife and I were worried about our dogs warming up to her but she was so kind and patient with them. She was always on time, consistent and took great pics and notes for us. WILL BE HAPPY TO BOOK AGAIN IN THE FUTURE!”
“First time for us using Rover for our fur babies daily care while we took a quick family snowboarding/ski trip. We had the best experience with Jess caring for our sweet pittie Bessie and our two rats Ponyo & Sosuke! We knew from the minute they met that Bessie and the rats would be well taken care of. Bessie enjoyed snuggles, leg massages (she is recovering from TPLO surgery), watching nature & dog shows, taking short walks and much more. We appreciated the updates after each visit and the photos of our fur babies. We would highly recommend using Jess again and will certainly reach out should we need assistance again!”
“Teagan was awesome! She was available pretty last minute. She still came and met the pups before our trip. She worked around her schedule and ours. She kept the house cleaned up which is huge for me! And she helped water flowers while we were gone along with taking great care of our 4 pups!”
“Hannah was wonderful with our kitty while we were away, Thomas really enjoyed her company which isn't always a given, and I appreciated the extra care when a painting fell and by taking care of our fish tanks too! Top notch sitter and will absolutely book again in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with our cat sitter Paige! From the moment we met him, it was clear how much he genuinely loves animals. He took excellent care of both of our cats, including one who requires insulin injections twice a day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. He was communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly kind, keeping us updated and making sure our cats were happy and well cared for. We came home to two relaxed, well-loved kitties. We were so happy with the experience that we’ve already booked him again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
About: I've had and taken care of pets including cats, dogs, fish, and the occasional baby bunny or duckling that we would find in our backyard or in the creek next to our house growing up. I have experience working with multiple different breeds of both cats and dogs, so I am comfortable with all types of pets. I don’t currently have any pets, but my family has two Newfoundlands and four cats. I often dogsat for our neighbors dogs growing up, and in college I would also enjoy going to the humane society to volunteer to walk dogs and help out with the cats. I grew up with pets my entire life and have experience working at a doggy daycare as well as at PetSmart as a pet care associate, and love working with any type of furry friend! I work part time as a gymnastics coach in the evenings and have a pretty flexible schedule. I am also willing and able to work weekends or holidays to look after your pet if their human is traveling for the holidays. I always like to do an initial meet and greet to get to know you and your pet a little bit better, as well as to go through things like the pets daily schedule/routine and where things like leashes, food, water bowls, treats, poop bags, etc. are kept. It is also nice to see how your pets interact with each other and/or me, as well as asking any questions that might be important during their time spent in my care, such as if the pets have any allergies or dietary restrictions, emergency veterinary contact information, any medications your pet might be taking, whether or not they are friendly with other dogs, if they are allowed on the furniture, or any other special accommodations they might need so that I can give your furry friend the best care possible!
About: I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family for several years now, and I feel my personalized approach to pet care sets me apart from other sitters. I tailor my services to meet the unique needs of each pet, whether it's keeping up with the playfulness for puppies or extra relaxation for seniors! My dedication to creating a comfortable and enriching environment ensures that your furry family members receive the love and attention they deserve while you're away! I currently attend university as a full-time student, but I’ve been able to customize my class schedule to be able to prioritize regular exercise, feeding schedules, and playtime to ensure each pet's physical and mental well-being. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, and I value providing the best possible care for every furry friend I meet! I strive to create a welcoming atmosphere that mimics the pet's home routine as closely as possible by following the owner’s instructions. I maintain consistency and provide companionship for each walk, play-date, and overnight. I communicate openly with owners by giving regular updates and being responsive to any and all needs and concerns :)
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot say enough wonderful things about Monica! ❤️🐾 With our wedding quickly approaching, I was trying to find someone I could genuinely trust to care for our two dogs, Bagel and Bailey. I had originally been considering another sitter, but Monica was still incredibly kind, understanding, and willing to help us even though I wasn’t sure who we would end up booking with. From the moment we met Monica, we just clicked! 🥰 She immediately made us feel comfortable, and I could tell how much she genuinely cares about animals. We knew she was the right person to trust with our fur babies during such an important weekend in our lives. Our older girl, Bailey, can be timid and nervous around unfamiliar people, so finding someone patient, gentle, and understanding was especially important to me. Monica was absolutely wonderful! She made sure both dogs had plenty of time outside, were fed, and received lots of love and attention. Knowing our babies were being cared for allowed us to enjoy our wedding without constantly worrying about them, and that peace of mind was priceless. ❤️ What started as an uncertain search for a pet sitter turned into finding someone we genuinely connected with and would absolutely love to use again! Monica, thank you so much for your kindness, flexibility, patience, and for taking such wonderful care of Bagel and Bailey. You helped make our wedding weekend that much more special, and we are incredibly grateful! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and genuinely dedicated to the animals in her care, I wholeheartedly recommend Monica! 🥰🐶🐶❤️”
“Chelsea was amazing! She took such great care of our cats and gave great updates. One of our cats usually gets really stressed when we’re away, but he was so happy and relaxed this time with her checking in. I’m so grateful and will definitely book with her again!”
About: I’m a 25 year old pet sitter. im a full time dental assistant and part time dog sitter! Im a pet owner, I’ve grew up with pets my entire life. I grew up with cats, dogs, fish, goats. I love to care for animals/ people who can’t take care/speak for themselves😇 I’m a full time dental assistant who works 8-5 during the week days. I am available on weekends at ANY TIME for boarding, house sitting or drop-in visits. And during the week I am also available any time after 5pm! For any pet they need to be fed, bathed, time to play, let outside to potty and just be a nice companion to them everyday.

About: We adopted my mom’s dog back in 2020, so since then I have had experience living with dogs. I then adopted my dog, Smokey, in 2024. I potty and leash trained Smokey, and also taught him numerous tricks. Then in January, I adopted Canelo, and I was able to leash and potty train him (he is older so he was sort of potty trained), along with teaching him how to use steps! I attend college one day a week, on wednesdays, so I have plenty of time! I would love to care for your pet with all of the free time I have. Whether it’s checking in or walking your dog, I’m able to do it all in the comfort of your home. At your home, I will assure to respect everything and watch over your pet with care! I am able to crate your pet at my home as well, if needed.

5/5 Stars — 10/10 Highly Recommended! I cannot recommend Ava enough! She saved the day by stepping in on just two days' notice to take care of my cat for a full week straight. She did two 30min-1hr long drop-in visits every single day and was absolutely wonderful. She is super nice, incredibly reliable, and kept me updated the entire time with excellent communication. It gave me total peace of mind knowing my cat was in such great hands. I will absolutely be booking her again!
She did a great job taking care of our two dogs and two cats while we were out of town! She was very communicative, sent us updates and photos throughout our trip, and followed all of our care instructions. It gave us peace of mind knowing everyone was being taken care of while we were away. We really appreciated her help and would definitely book with her again!
Abbey took care of our three family cats while we were on vacation in Florida for nine days, and I cannot say enough good things about the experience. Before we left, I was very worried about being away from them because our cats are such an important part of our family. Abbey made it so much easier for us to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing they were in such good hands. She communicated exceptionally well, providing updates after every visit along with pictures and videos of our cats. Seeing them and knowing how they were doing gave us tremendous peace of mind. She also kept their litter boxes clean, made sure they had fresh water and their food was full, made sure they had treats, and clearly gave them plenty of attention and care. What truly stood out was how she went above and beyond. We have an outdoor cat who would greet her every day and was always very vocal when she arrived. One day he didn't show up when she arrived. Concerned, Abbey spent time looking around for him but couldn't find him. Even though she wasn't scheduled to come the next day, she returned the next day specifically to check on him. Thankfully, he was there waiting to greet her, and knowing that she cared enough to come back and make sure he was okay meant so much to us. Abbey is kind, dependable, caring, and truly treats your pets as if they were her own. We would absolutely use her again for future vacations and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust to care for their cats. She is wonderful! 🐾❤️

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Rossford is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $30 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.
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 .
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.

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 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 .
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. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
