“Julia was terrific!! Our dogs were treated very well! They hardly knew we were gone because of Julia’s attention! She enforced the need for their safety, requested leashes, etc., for our dogs who run freely on our property. We were totally fine with that request and pleased she made it a priority! Will definitely call on her in the future!”
“We are very happy with Melina! We have booked her for drop-ins 3 days a week and will continue. We work long hours and I feel so much better knowing that a caring person is stopping in to let the dogs out to run and potty. We will continue with Rover and Melina!”
“Eliza was wonderful with Mia. It was so nice to have someone with her background to spend time with Mia and make her feel comfortable while I was away for the day. I highly recommend Eliza! Thank you so much for your gentle care with Mia.”
“Chelsey is very prompt and does an excellent job. She did a great job looking after my kitten. He enjoyed his play time with her and she ensured he was well cared for. Would highly recommend and will be user her again!”
About: I'm a dog trainer, AKC evaluator, and Red Cross‑certified in dog & cat first aid. I have owned dogs and cats all my life. With over three years at a pet store, 4 years as a professional dog trainer, and a year of experience as a professional bather, I know all the ins and outs of tending to your pets. Drop-in visits include a 30 mins of all inclusive care—exercise, play, cuddles, feeding, medications, and minor grooming or cleaning duties—whatever you need! I specialize in puppies (potty training), reactive dogs, and teaching positive reinforcement. Your pup will get skilled, safe, and high quality care because to me they’re just like family. I work as a dog trainer and make my own schedule, so everything is very flexible. I typically don’t work Sundays and teach group classes Wednesday evenings and Saturdays between 10-2pm. Other than that and the sporadic private lessons, my schedule is pretty open. Because I’m a dog trainer I know all the ins and outs of dog behavior and how to act accordingly. My broad knowledge from working at a pet store also gives me insight on things like diet, proper living conditions, care, and administering medication. I’m also cat and dog first aid certified through the American Red Cross.
“Jeanetta did an amazing job taking care of our high maintenance cats, even giving meds and letting them go outside into their invisible fence area. She played with them and gave them treats just how we do when we're home. I would highly recommend her!”
About: My name is Tyler James Tracey (A.S., B.A.), I was raised in Muskingum County and graduated from Muskingum University. I worked in social services for a little under a decade before I worked in scientific research and regulation in Columbus. My family has returned to Muskingum county after I chose to pivot my career path and I'm now looking to help local families with their animal-based needs. With an academic understanding and rich professional experience in animal behavior and physiology, I bring extra security in assuring top-tier care for your family. My schedule is open and malleable for new clients. I believe in a regulated, consistent schedule, something that both humans and our pets thrive off of. I will maintain constant supervision for the pets under my care, happy to follow household standards and norms, and am willing to take your pet out of the home for exercise and enrichment. My vehicle is equipped with proper transport seating for dogs, and I keep supplies like water and portable bowls for hot days.
“Emily was great & made sure my cats were taken care of while we were out of state! They all have a unique personality and she rolled with the punches very well! She assisted us with getting our diabetic cat, Phil, picked up for a surprise boarding visit and made sure he had all his supplies with him. Lil and Tommy were missing us but she made sure they were well fed and loved! I would recommend her and definitely use her service again! Overall a great first time Rover experience!”
“Sam took great care of our three cats while we were out of town for the holidays! She gave us regular updates with pictures and videos, and it set our minds at ease to know our girls were happy and healthy.”
About: I’ve had pets in the house since I was a toddler including dogs, cats, rabbits, and reptiles. I regularly dogsit my neighbor’s dogs and hope to find more pups and kitties to help out! I am pretty open so I’m available weekdays and most weekends. I’m currently unemployed, so I am available for walks, check ins, and any other pet needs! I love giving my attention to pets and I will only be traveling to client’s homes because my home is already full of many fur babies!
About: My family always owned pets and I'm the only person that my old roommate trusts to dogsit for them. I love the company of pets. I work fully remote from anywhere with cellular coverage or WiFi and only have rare times when I absolutely have to be in meetings so I have a lot of flexibility to make time for other things. If it's okay with you, I would like to let your pet free to roam around your house just as if you were home. I love petting them and having chats while I'm working. I always set reminders for the meal times and potty breaks you request to make sure they are pampered as much as you want. No sharing of human food, only their approved diest and treats.
About: I have grown up around dogs and cats and I have always loved both very much, I have been house/dog sitting for over 3 years I have done everything from 1 year old golden retrievers to older dogs with ptsd, I live a active lifestyle so I don’t mind walking/playing with dogs, what ever you need I can do I am incredibly flexible I have a open schedule so I will have plenty of time to spend time with your pets and can move anything else in my schedule around to fit your needs I have been taking care of pets for my whole life, I will always make sure they are let out, always have water, are fed on time and well exercised
About: Since before I could speak I loved animals; growing up in rural Ohio on a pig farm we always had dogs, cats, horses, cows, goats and many reptiles and small mammals running around. I've always had a strong love for caring for animals and especially dogs because I love their endless happiness for the world around them. I'm very comfortable around any size and any breed of dog or cat, or to take care of any other pet need you might have! Aside from growing up around more animals than I can count, I used to volunteer at my local animal shelter and I am comfortable with learning any new needs your pet may have. I currently work night shift 4 days a week so I will be available during the daytime for your pet needs! I will be available to walk, do house check ins and feed/water your pets! Although I'm not currently in a position where I can have my own pet or pet sit from where I live, Im very passionate about working with animals and I'm excited to start meeting your babies and helping you give them the best care you can from your home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, and ducks for family and friends when they needed someone. I’m very comfortable doing longer periods of time if needed, I love playing with animals on top of just the necessities! I’m currently working part-time and I’m able to schedule around certain times as needed. In the fall I start college again with plenty of break times! I prefer to stay where the animals are used to. I communicate constantly while I’m watching someone else animals by sending pictures, videos, and regular updates.
About: I've taken care of many different animals for as long as I can remember, including 2 dogs that I owned for 12+ years, a real dogs best friend, I can take care of yours just as well, or better! I currently have a full-time job, 1 week I'm available 4 days, the next, I'm available 3, any of those days, I'm more than happy to help! I have a nice yard and nice size house with a beautiful Golden retriever that loves everyone and everything, she will keep your dog entertained!
“I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Zanesville 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 204 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Zanesville. 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 Zanesville 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
