“Christine was fantastic with our dog Ali. We were nervous as this was the first time we hired a drop in sitter while we were gone. Our dog is a little bit neurotic and elderly and we weren't quite sure how she was going to react. She loved Christine from the get-go. She loved all the walks, attention, love she was given in our absence. She was walked at least twice a day. Which really kept her anxiety and energy level down. She was so chill when we got home it was quite shocking. She was in constant contact with us with photos and updates and I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Anna has been great with my pup! My dog is a little moody and she made sure to spend time with her and earn her trust. She will put in the time your dogs! Can’t recommend more!”

“I would 100% recommend Bri! Bri greatly understood my dog Rey's needs and showed warmth, patience, and knowledge about dog care. During the visit, Bri gave Rey her meds and ensured she was relaxed and comfortable. Bri took terrific care of Rey. I appreciated the thorough visit summary and pictures, too. I am so grateful Bri stopped by to dog-sit Rey. I plan to contact her again for future dog sittings.”

“We are so grateful to have found Jennifer! She has gone above and beyond again. She spoiled our kitty and treated him like he was her own, complete with catnip bubbles! She even brought him a new wand toy to play with, and set up a kitty obstacle course in our living room for him! We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in great hands, and came home to a very happy and content cat!😊”

“Dee was great with our cat, friendly and professional. Each day she sent several photos of our cat and described to us how he was doing — which put my husband and me at ease so could enjoy our vacation. She loves animals and responds immediately to any inquiries. We highly recommend her to tend to your pet(s) while you’re away.”

“So glad I came across Lindsay, I had to head out of town last minute and she came in clutch. We weren’t able to do a meet and greet beforehand but we were able to figure something out and everything turned out fine. Will definitely keep her mind for the future!”

About: Hello! I have had a love for pets my whole life! Starting when I was 12 I began to check in on my neighbor's and family member's animals. I would walk them, feed them, stay the night with them, and love on them! As a recent high school graduate, I am free both weekdays and weekends for the summer and can put my full attention and energy into watching your pet! I always make sure that my animal's needs are taken care of first! I take them on nice long walks and play with them and give them as much attention as possible! I make sure to take them out every few hours depending on how big or small!
“We are so thankful for Elizabeth for taking such good care of our pup this week! She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and healthy! This is our 3rd time having her come for drop in visits and it won't be the last I'm sure!”

About: I have always had pets of all kinds growing up along with much love for all wildlife. Currently I have 4 cats, 2 dogs, 3 fish and many snails, and a lot of plants! My dog growing up became diabetic (also blind) and I provided him supportive care for the remaining 5 years he had (including special meals and insulin shots)! I have rescued several cats and found loving homes after getting them medical care (I always keep in touch). One of my cats was a bottle baby after finding her on the side of the road at only 3 weeks old, she is now almost 2. I also provided supportive care for my two eldest cats (11years) after their major surgeries (perineal urethrostomy and gallbladder removal). I am also in the process of obtaining my wildlife rehabilitation permit for I always seem to be brought animals to care for and I would like to do more for them than just transporting to a rehabilitator! I have a lot of room at my house which includes the finished basement area with separate rooms, a mudroom, a large fenced in backyard, and kennels if needed. I'm willing to travel to you, or care for your animals here! All my animals are friendly (successfully introduced and integrated) but if yours needs some privacy I can absolutely provide it. I'm here to help, I hope it's clear how important your fur babies would be to me! I would love to make whatever it is you need happen. I am currently a stay at home mom with my own fur babies. My day starts at 6AM when I wake up to feed and walk the dogs and check to see if the cats need anything. I would be more than happy to care for your animal(s) here or get out of the house and care for them in their home! I have a large fenced in yard, a finished basement with separate rooms, a separate mudroom, and kennels if needed! My 4 cats and 2 dogs roam the house and would love to make new friends, but if your animals are shy, we have plenty of space to accommodate. All I ask is for a clear set of instructions if caring for your pet in your home and you can expect those instructions to be carried out with love and respect for your animal(s) and property. I am also insured for pet care/housesitting through PCI.
About: I’ve had numerous gigs babysitting neighbors pets over the years; from dogs and cats to turtles and fish. I love spending time with all animals and I’m always looking out for the happiness and safety of your animals no matter the size :) Currently I’m a student at The University of Akron which gives me spare time in between classes. I’m usually free during the week and have no problem taking a break in my day to go check on your pets! Growing up with several dogs over the years, I’m very familiar with showing affection and maintaining the needs of pets. We routinely walk our dogs twice a day and make sure to feed morning and night. I love spending time outside with my dogs and getting all their energy out before bedtime.
About: I’m a pet owner myself with a dog and two cats, so I’m used to managing different personalities, routines, and energy levels every day. I understand how important consistency is, and I try to keep things as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible. I don’t overbook, so your pet will get real attention and a calm environment—not a chaotic, revolving-door situation. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, including multi-pet households, and I pay attention to the small things like behavior changes, feeding habits, and overall comfort. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or sitting, my goal is simple: make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well taken care of while you’re away. I work a full time job, so I am available after 4:30pm Monday through Friday and have open availability Saturday and Sunday to help care for your pets! I provide a safe, calm, and structured environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. Safety is always my top priority. I closely monitor pets during walks, playtime, and feeding, and I’m mindful of surroundings to prevent any risks. I follow all care instructions carefully, including medications, dietary restrictions, and activity levels. In my home, pets are treated like family. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space and ensure all areas are secure. I also make sure introductions with other animals (if applicable) are done slowly and safely. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to feel confident and at ease, knowing your pet is in responsible and caring hands.
About: I grew up on a farm where I cared for a range of animals from chickens to cats. From there, I have always had a pet to share my heart with. I have had guinea pigs, cats, dogs in my own home and have yet to meet an animal I don't get along with. I am looking for flexible work so that I can finish writing my novel without letting the burden of finances fall completely on my husband. I figure walking and caring/sitting for animals to help keep my family fed is a great match for me, my personality, and my love for animals. I used to work 13 hour days, an hour from home, so I understand the importance of a pet nanny and would be honored to help you with that need! My two fur babies, Lily (9 year old Ragamuffin kitty) and Ellie (5 year old German Shepherd) have different personalities and co-habitate beautifully, but I would not want to introduce other animals into my home. Both of my girls are rescues from different shelters (Angels for Animals and One of a Kind Pet Rescue) and they both lived stressful lives before me so my job is to give them sanctuary and love. That said, in regard to care, Lily is pretty self regulated. Every other day, her food bowl is re-filled (no, you can't see the bottom of the bowl but she's my sweet princess who gets what she wants) and her kitty litter is scooped every other day and changed as needed. Ellie is a rescued Puppy Mill momma who grew up in a very confusing way and is forever married to routine. To keep her happy and healthy, we let her out same time each day (7am) where she eats 1.5 cups of food, potty break at 12pm and again at 5pm (1.5 cups). Ellie's gets let out 3 times a day, per her wants because I try to let her out more and if she doesn't have to go potty, she turns around and lays on her Tempur-Pedic bed. Otherwise, when the weather is appropriate Ellie and I take a minimum of a 15 minute walk in the park behind my house. I hope this description helps you trust that your fur babies will consider me "Auntie Marah" soon enough, and that they are in safe and caring hands with me. I am happy to answer any questions!
About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats for most of my life, whether my own or others'. I'm great at following specific instructions, giving updates, getting along with all kinds of dogs! I'm a student at miami university, so this is a seasonal position for me. I have plenty of time to give to your pets in the summer, winter, and little pockets between. I like spending time outside with pets to get them fresh smells, sticking to their routines, and plenty of cuddles if their alright with it!
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I've cared for a variety of pets: seniors, puppies, cats, kittens, high energy, shy or anxious. I’m patient, gentle, and always focused on making pets feel safe and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet’s needs and routine. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always keep their comfort, safety, and happiness as my top priorities. I currently am a pharmacy technician full time but I typically have 3 days off weekly and time before and after work available for your pets needs. I’m someone who believes pets deserve the same comfort, safety, and love they get at home. When your pet stays with me, they’re not just being “watched”—they’re being cared for thoughtfully and responsibly.

“5 Stars , Absolutely phenomenal pet sitter! We’ll definitely be booking her again if possible! Amber will treat your animals with love and help take the stress off from you AND your pet. We had Amber do two drop-in visits per day for 2 days, and she was outstanding in every way. From the very beginning, she was quick with responses, incredibly flexible, accommodating a last minute booking and even adjusting the schedule by several hours on the first day when our departure got delayed with her schedule and flexibility luckily coming through again for us. She made the whole process stress free. She was wonderful with our dog Hazel. The updates she sent through the Rover app were some of the best and reassuring. She included exactly when Hazel went on bathroom breaks during walks, how much she ate and drank, and how she was doing overall. When we got home, Hazel was so comfortable and happy that she was sprawled upside down on the bed in the bedroom and didn’t even hear me calling her loudly from the other room, that’s how relaxed and well cared for she was! Amber took Hazel on multiple walks each visit, made sure she was fed and watered, and clearly gave her lots of love and attention. We felt completely at ease leaving our girl in her care and trusted her 100%. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Thank you so much, we can’t wait to book with her again in the future!”


About: I've been a dog and cat owner my entire life and have a deep love for animals of all kinds. I'm especially passionate about rescue animals and understand that pets are much more than pets, they're family. I currently have both a dog and a cat, so I'm experienced with different personalities, needs, and routines. I also have experience with pets with medical needs. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply having a calm companion around, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. You can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member will receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I'm committed to providing a reliable, loving experience for both you and your animal. I work in education and I am off for the summer which allows me plenty of time to help care for your fur babies! I have a lot of flexibility to be able to offer drop- in visits and walking services. I currently only offer drop- in visits and walking, which will allow your pet to receive care in the comfort of familiar places! Their comfort is of the utmost importance to me!

So glad I came across Lindsay, I had to head out of town last minute and she came in clutch. We weren’t able to do a meet and greet beforehand but we were able to figure something out and everything turned out fine. Will definitely keep her mind for the future!
Matt was incredible. Both of our cats were instantly friends with him and would come running to the door every time he came to visit. We loved getting the daily pictures while we were missing them. Highly recommended and we'll definitely be using him again if we need to!

Audrey was very responsive during my vacation. Ohio expreienced a snow, cold and ice storm and I had concerns about her being able to travel to visit my two cats. She was very willing to drive to my house to take care of them, even on the worst day. I especially loved the check in photos and a few of her pirctures are really amazing photos. Audry also helped me with turning on faucets and helping with concerns with my pipes freezing. I would highly recommend her - and already have to my friends and family when they go out of town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Stow on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,519 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Stow. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Stow stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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 Stow. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
