“Carolyne, It was a very trying week for you with the winter storm, our unplowed driveway and the door lock problem. Thank you for taking it all in stride and giving excellent care to Jynxie, Boo and Van. I really appreciate all you do and the loving care you provide. Thank you, Donna”

About: I grew up with cats and became a dog owner 20 years ago. I have trained 2 puppies. I have a lot of time on my hands to care for your pets. I am a teacher and I am gone weekdays 6:15-3:30. I do have a daughter that comes home daily from 10:45-11:30 to let the dogs out. I have one Boston Terrier and he loves to play. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of room to run around. My dog can be crated if needed.

“Kristen was fantastic. She has dogs of her own and knows how to care for the dog. Sasha was a new to us puppy and this was the first time we left her at home. Kristen took Sasha for walks and comforted her. Kristen kept us updated on Sasha's status for each visit so we knew that our dog was in good care. We will definitely use Kristen again and I would recommend her to do drop-ins.”

About: I have been caring and owning dogs for over 5 years. I have most experience dog sitting and walking; and I am most excited to meet all your fury friends! I have roughly 2 and a half years of house sitting. Whatever it may be: cleaning, cooking, dog-walking, dog sitting, etc. I can do it! No matter how busy I might be, I will always make time for animal care. Weekends and MWF are always the best days when it comes to animal care, as Tuesdays and Thursdays are my slightly busier days. But morning to night, I can handle feedings, potty breaks, and play time. My own pets are on a schedule for feedings and playtime and walks. I guarantee that no matter the pet, whatever is needed for your fur babies, I will fulfill it. I personally love a good cuddle on the couch and a walk on some nature trails to stretch those legs, but anything from pet yoga to swimming, I'll make sure any animal is taken care of.

About: I've owned dogs since high-school. I blessed to meet my soul dog 6yrs ago, but unfortunately lost him to cancer a year after we adopted him. Our current pup, Harley is a huge couch potato and loves kids... but she's my husband's doggo. I'm looking for families who can appreciate having a caretaker for their pets, who wants to be best friends with every dog and cat she meets and will love them like family. I work from home Monday- Friday. Which gives me lots of flexibility to provide care for your pets as needed. My job requires me to be detail oriented, good at multitasking and extremely reliable. All traits that I can bring into providing care for your furry best friend! I have great communication skills, can follow pet schedules as required for food/walks/potty breaks etc, and administer medication. As well as providing all the other important needs your pets might have, playtime, snuggles and treats!

About: I’m an animal lover who will take care of your pet like they are my own. My husband and I currently have a mini bernedoodle. My Sheltie passed away 6 years ago at the age of 15 so I have a lot of experience caring for dogs. We also have two cats so I definitely have experience with them too. I have petsat for several family members and friends over the years. I work in education but I took this school year off so my schedule is wide open. During the school year, I would be available before and after school during the school year and anytime during the summer since I’m off all summer. I can easily crate your dog if you want. I will treat them like you would. Cuddles will be given (if they allow) to make them feel comfortable with me.

Maddie is reliable, warm, funny … I looked forward to her personable notes every day. Our cat can be very particular about the people he will greet, and Maddie earned his most-sincere (and dramatic) head butts and vocalizations. Highly recommend!!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Scioto

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Scioto is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,453 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Scioto. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Scioto. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
