“Haleigh did such a great job with our energetic dog! She was prompt, thorough with her Rover card responses, and went above and beyond in caring for Turner! Would absolutely book again!”
“Kortney exceeded my expectations in all ways. As a new customer I was extremely nervous, and from the moment I spoke to Kortney, I had forgotten why I even felt nervous at all. Roxxie my Boston terrier is my whole world, and I knew she’d be in good hands with Kortney. She even went out of her way to accommodate my night shift hours at the hospital to make sure that Roxxie was taken care of, even though she had to be up extra early for her job as well. If I weren’t moving to another state id choose Her for my pet needs every time!! Thank you so much Kortney for making this last hectic week so much easier for me!”
“Sadie was on time and followed our requests for our Beau Beau. She mapped out his walks on our report and sent very cute pictures. Sadie was also very playful with Beau Beau but also spent some time petting and calming him as he has a separation anxiety. Thank you Sadie!”
About: I grew up on a farm, so I took care of cats, dogs, and various other farm type animals like horses and cows quite frequently. I also have a cat and two dogs back home that I take care of whenever I go back home. I’m currently waiting to hear back from multiple full time jobs, however this can take a while so at the moment I am usually free 24/7 for any pets who need taken care of! If I was to take a dog to my home, I have plenty of space for them to roam around inside as well as plenty of places outdoors to walk, or even go to the dog park if they enjoy going there. My apartment is perfect for a cat as well because there are plenty of windows for sunbathing and comfortable places to take naps, and for more active cats there is plenty of indoor space to play.
“Abby had the ultimate challenge - watching a fellow Rover sitters special needs dog family! She was timely. Went the extra mile in care. Had unexpected medications to administer! Fabulous positive outlook and care!! 5 star high five!”
“Danielle did a few drop-in visits with our fur babies in preparation for a housesitting we scheduled for our honeymoon. She has done very well with both dogs, even our Kensi that is very fearful and wary of strangers. Thank you!! :)”
“Kelsey was amazing with my cat Chester! He's usually very shy and doesn't take well to strangers but was immediately friendly with her. I can tell he had a good time and enjoyed seeing her every day!”
“Yasmin is fabulous! She took time to meet our pup prior to starting weekly drop ins so he felt comfortable. She asked such thoughtful questions to ensure she knew about his care and what he would need. During the visits with our pup, she has been so detailed and loving with our boy. It’s clear that she really enjoys what she does. Could not ask for a better pal for our pup! Thank you, Yasmin!!”
“Erica was so great with my two dogs! She treated them like her own and I could always rely on her to be there when she said she would be. She provides excellent care and I will recommend her to anyone needing help with their pets in the future!”
“Corey was an amazing Rover sitter! He was on time, took wonderful care of my cat, and went above and beyond by washing all of the food and water bowls before I got home. My cat had a great play session, and Corey sent lots of adorable photos and updates throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and I always knew how my cat was doing. I would absolutely book Corey again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter!”
“Kyra was great and professional, she took wonderful care of our cat. It was our first time using Rover and first time with Kyra, and we're glad we found her. We'll definitely have her back. Thanks Kyra!”
“Imani is always in great care when Devon’s there. I can “relax” at work knowing that he’s having a blast running and playing. Thanks as always Devon!! You’re the BEST!!!”

Mariya was wonderful. I had a last minute need to have my animals fed and my dog let outside— and she was so responsive and communicative that I felt completely comfortable with her service. Lots of pics to leave no doubt everything was taken care of while I was gone. I’ll be a client again for sure!
I feel so comfortable having Lea dog sit when I’m away. She is incredibly attentive, generous, loving, communicative, and responsible. I am so grateful whenever she is available to help, because I know I don’t have to worry about a thing while I’m away, and my dogs will be overjoyed to spend time with her! Highly recommend!!
I just hope the next time I need pet care, Chloe is available. The service she provides has always put my mind at ease every time she watched my dog. For several weeks, she was reliable, timely, flexible, and incredibly accommodating to my puppy’s needs. I can’t speak highly enough about the exceptional care she provides—from the pictures and updates to the prompt and consistent communication. I truly appreciate everything she has done and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for outstanding pet care.

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 Worthington 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 Worthington 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.

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

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.
