“Emily is the best! My dogs just adore her! She was more than willing to come over to do a meet and greet visit with us prior to having weekly lunch hangs with my pups! It’s clear she knows how to best take care of all fur babies! I’m so thankful for her!!!”
“Ryan was thorough, capable of following my directions, and did the job with pride-- I felt incredibly safe with him working with my cats and their needs! He was able to work with changes in directions, had experience giving liquid medications by mouth, and was punctual and timely in his visits. My cats felt calm when he was around, and he had no problem playing with them with extra time he had. I would definitely recommend Ryan and hope he gets plenty of opportunities to continue petsitting in the future, thank you again!”
About: I'm a dedicated and compassionate pet caregiver with experience caring for both large and small dogs ranging in age from 1 to 13 years old. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, preferences, and routine, and I take pride in providing attentive, individualized care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am highly detail-oriented and make it a priority to maintain your dog's regular schedule, including feeding times, potty breaks, exercise, medications (if needed), and daily routines. Consistency is important for a dog's well-being, so I work hard to ensure they remain on their normal schedule while you're away. My goal is to create a positive, fun, and loving environment where your pup feels cared for and happy. Dogs in my care receive plenty of attention, cuddles, and physical activity, typically between 30 minutes and 1 hour of exercise per day, depending on their age, energy level, and needs. Before services begin, I prefer to meet both the dog and their family. This allows me to learn your pet's routine, personality, favorite activities, and any special instructions. I also like to familiarize myself with the home, including the locations of emergency contacts, cleaning supplies, and other important items, so I can provide the safest and most seamless care possible. Communication is extremely important to me. I provide timely updates, regular photos, and detailed check-ins so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while ensuring every dog receives the love, attention, and quality care they deserve. I am a full-time employee with flexible starting and closing hours. I work remotely once a week. Weekends are open as well. When I am presented with tasks, I make sure that all my responsibilities are taken care of. I allocate appropriate time to ensure client and self-satisfaction. When I put my mind to it, I complete my tasks to the best of my ability. I enter and exit the house the same way I arrived, always maintaining the client’s privacy and security. If I notice any damage or an emergency arises, I communicate immediately, offering opportunities for additional service and support. I treat the home as if it were my own, showing respect and care in every detail. I bring the same level of attention and compassion to the client’s pet, ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am deeply caring, compassionate, tidy, and regimented in all that I do.
“Meghana is a wonderful and attentive cat sitter for my boy Nori. She is quick and responsive! Her notes and pictures from each visit were detailed and I loved seeing the progress of my cat warming up to her. She has an expert understanding of cat body language and was careful not to push boundaries and overstimulate Nori as they learned each other. I am glad they have become friends during my time away. I highly recommend hiring Meghana for your pet sitting needs!”
“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!! :)”
“I was really to have Ashley as the pet sitter for my cat, Neo. She was very professional while also being warm and caring. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Neo was well looked after and comfortable with her. I would happily recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind pet sitter!”
About: Anyone who knows me can tell you that my biggest goal in life is to pet every cat I can. Between my family and friends' cats to my own two kitties, Quentin & Baby, I've taken care of cats for around 13 years. I'm great at giving cats play and engagement or accommodating their solitary needs with respect and empathy. I also have experience dealing with a range of pet health issues and accidents. This includes fleas (baths and continued treatment), ear mites, skin allergies (dermatitis and other sensitivities), pancreatitis (administering at-home treatments post surgery), and providing end of life care (cancer, palliative care). I'm very used to administering medications, both orally and topically. Whether your cat is experiencing ongoing health issues or is just in need of a little extra love and company, I can assure you that they will be in great hands! I currently work a 7:30-4:30pm Monday through Friday, but I am available for assistance from 5:30-7:00am, 1:00-2:00pm, and any time after 5:00pm throughout the week. Weekends are typically fully open! I'm experienced with minimal at home grooming (furminator, nail trimming, paw washing). I'm able to clean out litter boxes and manage any vomiting or accidents made around the home. I'm also experienced with administering both topical and oral medications in the event that your pet is experiencing ongoing health issues or is recovering from an accident.
“Sidlali was great at our first meeting, and very patient with the possibly-overly-detailed introduction I gave her to our cats and their litter situation. I look forward to her taking care of our cats next month!”
“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!”
About: I've lived with pets my whole life and have found a passion for caring for animals with the same love you have for them! I specialize in cats of all ages and dogs over the age of one. I've had about 5 years of experience in working with anxious dogs who are scared of everything - very used to taking a long time to grt scaredy dogs outside. With that, I'm very experienced in delivering medications or cleaning up messes. I understand how stressed our fur babies feel when we need to leave them and my main goal is to make them as comfortable as absolutely possible. I work full time Monday-Friday but do have some work from home days during the week. I would be more than happy to visit your home during the day for walks or quick take outs! I am also happy to come visit you and your fur babies at anytime to get a better idea of your schedule. I am working on getting Fear Free certified and would be more than happy to provide that certification once acquired. I would be happy to crate your pets if needed. I'll send plenty of photos and updates throughout my visit!
About: Growing up I’ve had so many different animals, including 3 dogs I loved dearly! My love for animals is far beyond the love I have for humans at the moment🤣 I also worked for a dog walking company while I was living in San Francisco back in 2018! I currently have a 7 year old cat named Jinx! Since I mostly work evenings, I am the perfect fit for mid day check ins! Depending on the service needed, I am ok with doing a quick hello, or taking your fur baby on a nice walk! Any rules and regulations you may have for me will never be an issue! My fur baby always comes first! I will make sure that I give the same love and attention to your babies as well! I hold animals to a much higher standard than I do anything else honestly, and I take pride in that!
“Abby is the best. She took such great care of our pets. And they loved her. The pictures were great. And she kept us up to date on everything. I absolutely love Abby.”
“Quinn did a great job! I really appreciated the action shots of the cats playing, and she helped take care of some household things as well. She went above and beyond!”
About: I have dog sat for my bestfriends dog for 7 years. I have walked him, fed him, played with him, and stayed overnight with him. I work fulltime 7 a.m.-3:30 p.m Monday- Friday. So I could come shortly after that time if needed. I don’t work on the weekends so I could come at any time if I’m available. I can do one visit Monday- Friday. I do not offer care in my home because I have a small apartment and 2 pets. I will make sure to create a safe environment and build trust when entering someone’s home.
“Abby has been great with our 3 month old puppies! She gets them out for long walks and helps them get their energy out. She understands their needs and has helpful suggestions based on her experience.”
“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!”
“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!!!”

Lauren was amazing! She took care of our two dogs for the week while we were out of state. She gave thorough updates and kept us in the loop with any concerns, etc (dogs paw irritated) to see how she could help. We will rebook her every time we need a Rover!
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.

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.

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.

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.
