About: I have taken care of family pets since I turned 10; always caring, loving, patient, long walks, car rides, playing outside, making them feel loved. I am comfortable around all dogs and is willing to adapt and learn from your pet! I will come care, play, feed, walk, cuddle them with love, willing to take animal to park if allowed. I will leave here and there only if it’s work and family related interferes. I have only one pup isn’t a puppy anymore 7 years old German Shepard full over outrageous adventures. Grew up with 4 miniature docsins, pit pulls, Great Danes and etc. due to family! All love for all dogs Transportation is available if I do ever need to grab extra dog food or drive to the park etc. I am currently full time traveling assistant manager, I have a flexible schedule for hours normally my shifts are between hours 8:30a to 7p they are around 7-9 hour shifts but I can always make it work to visit and take care of your animals when we discuss. I do accept a month to two weeks in advance in order to work out a good schedule but I do take last minute bookings but schedule will be iffy only due to last minute. When I’m sitting i would love to do other things while I’m there to help out if needed, trash, recycling, plants need water I got it handled, any small task you can’t get to I will be more than willing to help! I’m currently working a full-time job about 35-40 hours a week. My schedule isn’t set fully yet but I get my schedule a week ahead and normally I’m always able to rearrange my schedule to work out for others I don’t have a fence up yard I’m currently trying to get one. But normally I always go outside and watch the dogs go to the bathroom normally I always put them on a leash so I know they won’t run away. I always feed the dogs morning, noon time and dinner time. I currently live with my grandma, mother, and brother and we don’t have a dog living in the house. I do have spare dog toys, pads and crate from my dog that lives with my dad just incase I have a dog that I dog sit comes over so they have a place to sleep in my room.

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: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! I do work 730-330 M-F but my partner (Jeremy) is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.

About: Hi! My name is Staci, and I’ve been caring for animals for years as a dedicated pet owner. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I have experience with daily pet care responsibilities including feeding, walking, exercise, playtime, administering basic medications when needed, and providing lots of attention and affection. As a previous pet owner myself, I know that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to following your instructions carefully to help them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or companionship while you’re away, I’ll provide dependable care, regular updates, and plenty of love. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. As a college softball coach, I have experience managing schedules, being reliable, and handling responsibilities consistently. Outside of coaching, I have availability for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets, ensuring they receive the attention and care they deserve. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, exercise, and household rules to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Pets will have access to fresh water, regular potty breaks, playtime, and a comfortable place to rest. I understand that every pet is different, so I adapt my care to their energy level, personality, and routine.

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 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.

About: Hi! My name is Amber. I have one dog, Maeve, who *loves* to play and make new friends. We are members of Glass City Dog Park so she is well-socialized with other dogs. She also had a feline brother for about 7 months before we lost our 14 year old cat, Marty, and they were best buds. I am experienced in caring for pets with special needs, diets, ailments, and am no stranger to administering pills and shots to both cats and dogs. I have a big back yard with privacy fencing and a very quiet and safe neighborhood to walk in. I also ha e the ability to keep pets separated, if necessary, with a retractable gate between my living area and kitchen, while pets are aclimating. I am also happy to come you! I have reliable transportation and a very flexible schedule, especially during the day. I can't wait to meet, play with, and care for your pets! I am a musician so my obligations are usually in the evenings and on weekends, but that doesn't mean I won't be able to check on pets before or after gigs and practices. My day time availability is extremely flexible! I have a big back yard with privacy fencing and a very quiet and safe neighborhood to walk in. I also have the ability to keep pets separated, if necessary, with a retractable gate between my living area and large kitchen, while pets are aclimating.

Sydney was wonderful! She accommodated a fairly last-minute request from us to drop in twice a day for a week. We appreciated the check-ins, regular updates, and her flexibility with our schedule. Dot was nice and tired each day I arrived home, too! It was a great relief to know that Dot received so much care and attention during a busy week. We will book Sydney again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Sylvania on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 1,170 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Sylvania. 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 Sylvania 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.

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 Sylvania 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. 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.

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 Sylvania with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

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.
