About: I have been helping care for my beagle, Chance, for 9 years. I have taken care of dogs while babysitting. I know how to prepare food, control a tugger of a dog on walks, and give pets the love they deserve. My own beagle is somewhat disabled with full use in only 3 legs. My experience is in dogs, but I also love kitties. My days are very flexible and open. Mon and Wed I am unavailable from 7pm-9pm. Tuesday I am unavailable 7:45pm-8:30pm. These times do not include travel time. After August 22nd, I will no longer be in Ohio due to school. All care will be done within clients house, with the exceptions of walks or dog parks. I am also available to drive your fur babies if necessary. I will always check the water dish and feed on time.

About: Hii ! my name is Maasha ( Pronounced like the month of May and ah sha) or Maemae ! I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs. I have a 6-year-old Shih Tzu named Paris, and she’s the sweetest girl ever. I also spend time at dog shelters playing with and caring for dogs, which has helped me get comfortable with different personalities and energy levels. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I can assure you that I’m very patient and attentive. I always make sure your fur babies feel comfortable and safe with me. I’m used to feeding, walking, giving medication if needed, and spending quality time with dogs. Pet care fits really well into my routine because I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, where I can stay with your pet and keep them company. I make sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention they need, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know your pet is in good hands. I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for pets. I always follow your instructions and keep your pet on their normal routine so they feel comfortable. I also have a large trail park near my place for walks if approved. I’ll make sure your pet is safe and happy

About: 🐾 Pet Care experience Today, I share my home with two happy, well-socialized Corgis—Fabio and Roxy—and two gentle cats. I don’t have children, so my focus and energy are fully devoted to my pets and the dogs I care for in my home. I have a deep understanding of what it means to care for special needs dogs. My first Corgi, Floyd, began having seizures at just one year old and continued to experience them regularly—ranging from several a week to several a day—until he passed away at eight. He required an intensive medical routine that included seven medications a day on a strict schedule. I cared for him with complete dedication, and that experience taught me how to stay calm under pressure, follow detailed care plans, and respond intuitively to what a dog needs—physically and emotionally. Because of that experience, I’m confident and fully comfortable handling dogs with medical needs, including timed medications, dietary restrictions, insulin, supplements, or other ongoing care. Your dog’s health and safety will always be treated with the same diligence and love I give my own. With both of my Corgis still young and playful, we’re also happy to welcome puppies, as long as they are crate trained or currently in the process of crate training. I understand the patience and consistency required during that phase, and I’m happy to support that routine while keeping everyone safe and comfortable. I exclusively offer care in my home and am happy to accommodate your dog’s individual needs. Whether your pup is active, aging, recovering, or just needs extra attention, I provide a clean, secure, and loving space with a fenced yard, daily walks, and plenty of affection. My goal is to make your dog feel relaxed, safe, and part of the family while you’re away. 🕒 How Pet Care Fits Into My Day As a part-time hairstylist with a flexible schedule, I’m able to plan my days around the needs of the dogs in my care. I’m in and out throughout the day but rarely gone for more than a few hours at a time, which allows me to maintain a consistent, calm routine for the pets in my home. My younger Corgi, Roxy (age one), is only crated when we’re not home, while Fabio, our older Corgi, prefers more freedom—but both are fully crate trained. I also have multiple crate sizes available to safely and comfortably accommodate visiting dogs, depending on their size and needs. My home is quiet, child-free, and centered around animals. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my day—it’s part of my daily rhythm. From walks and playtime to rest and individualized care, your dog will be in a peaceful, safe, and loving environment while you’re away. 🐾 Safety, Trust & Environment I take safety and trust seriously, and I’ve created a calm, secure environment in my home where dogs can feel truly at ease. I have a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, and dogs are never left outside unattended. Inside, I maintain a clean and structured space with multiple crate sizes available for comfort and safety when needed. I am a child-free home, and the noise level stays low throughout the day—making it an ideal environment for senior dogs or those who may be more sensitive or anxious in busier settings. I carefully manage introductions between my pets and yours, and I’m experienced in keeping animals separate if needed for comfort or safety. I follow all feeding, medication, and sleep routines exactly as provided and treat every dog like one of my own—with attentiveness, patience, and love. In case of a serious emergency, we are located very close to MedVet.

About: I am great with animals, your pet would love their stay with me! Small or big, kind or feisty, I will win their hearts and love them! My attention will always go to your pet(s). They have a huge space to run around in the backyard, and lots of space in our house. I always have time for animals and many cute cuddles! I provide high-quality and customized boarding and daycare. I have a big fenced yard and plenty of space in our house. I have 2 very close parks with big fields and many different trails. All dogs love walking there!!! I will take only 1 client at a time, but I can take care of 2 dogs. I am very flexible if you need to make any adjustments! I don't have any pets, so your dog(s) will get all the attention. Your furry friend will be treated like our family during his/her stay. Your dog can expect daily walks and lots of playtime. Our guest will receive plenty of affection and will be treated with love and respect by all the members of my family. I'm available after 3 pm on weekdays and full time available on weekends. If you think your dog can be okay for up to 7 hours while I'm at work, you are welcome to bring them. For boarding a meet and greet is required for new clients. We have no other pets so they'd receive all the attention. Feel free to bring their toys and treats, we'll be sure to use them!

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs and fostered dogs ever since 8th grade (I am now a going into my third year of college). I’ve volunteered at shelters and have dog-sat over night before! I’ve also been able to train each and every dog I’ve had with basic skills and very cool niche skills I also as of June 2026 work at a vets office/facility as a kennel technician! I am currently on my summer break from college, though I am also working part-time at a vets office as a kennel technician. There I administer dogs and cats, feed them, walk them, give them their daily meds, clean cages, do nail trims, give baths, and more! My work schedule may vary as it’s a part time job but during the summer you can expect a few times a week for up to 3-6 hours per day! If your dogs also get along well with other dogs I can take them to work with me! (Cats unknown) I take out the pets when needed and feed them when it’s time for them to eat and make sure they always have water in their water bowl. I will crate an animal if told to and go on walks with the dog if wanted to as well.

Mirelsa is the most amazing pet sitter we’ve ever had for our pups! She sends the most detailed updates after each visit, sends a ton of photos that shows how happy and well taken care of they are, and above all, she loves and cares for them like they are her own which is PRICELESS! She not only took incredibly care of out pups, but she also cleaned off our deck when it rained/snowed so that no mud got tracked inside, she vacuumed the house, straightened up all the puppy blankets on the sofas, took out our trash, brought in packages, and even raced over to our house while she was at work when we had a bit of an emergency! She’s an absolute angel and we appreciate her so so much! We only feel comfortable leaving to go out of town when we know Mirelsa is watching our babies. ❤️

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Westerville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Westerville 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 2,603 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Westerville. 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 Westerville 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 Westerville 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 Westerville 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 Westerville. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% 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.

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.
