About: I noticed I’m always offering to take care of everyone’s pets in my personal life (HUGE animal lover) so I figured it’s time to join Rover. I’ve taken care of other pet owners cats, dogs, and rabbits in the past. I’ve had cats, dogs, and rabbits as pets as well as hamsters, goats, ducks, and fish growing up. I grew up in a small town in Ohio and my grandparents had a farm so I was around farm animals often. I don’t currently have any pets of my own as I work 10 hour shifts 4 days a week (nurse) so I would absolutely LOVE to watch and walk your pets whenever I’m not at work! Since I work long hours and am not in a good position to get a pet of my own at this time, I would love nothing more than to share the love with your pet(s). I do have a full time job but I’m available on weekends and evenings after approximately 6:30pm (perfect time for walks!). I also have one off day during the week that rotates. I do not have any pets of my own so your pet would have my full attention (also a plus if your pet does not get along well with other pets).
About: I have grown up with a dog in my house since I was born. I have taken care of neighbors and friends dogs while they have went on vacation or just out of town for work. Since moving away for college and now graduate school, I am looking for my dog fix since I cannot own one myself With the summer starting and vacations coming up I will do my best to be available for your dogs. I do have other responsibilities such as school and work but I am always 100% with my clients if I will be a good fit for the stay/drop or not. If you are looking to book with me but see my availability is different then what you’re looking for, please still send me a message and I will do my best to accommodate to make it work! Since I am not able to host dogs at my current place of residence, this will allow the dog to feel more comfortable with a stranger coming to take care of them while the owners are away for however long. I will adjust to their routine so they hardly notice the owners are gone. They will receive all the belly rubs and love they could ask for until their owner returns home
“Maggie did an exceptional job with my two dogs . I booked the wrong dates and needed her that same day and she made it happen. Her patience and flexibility is top notch. Dependable and trustworthy! I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
About: Hi! I’m Robert. I’ve had animals all my life (dogs, cats, fish, lizards, hermit crabs, raised praying mantids and butterflies). I trap and spay/neuter feral cats (TNR), feed birds, planted a pollinator garden in my yard…love nature and appreciate the relationship between humans and animals. My small dog Tyson is 11 or 12 years old and has some special needs (anxiety, hip-problems, blind in one eye, and I am his 3rd owner), so I know patience and compassion when it comes to senior dogs. Two of my cats I’ve had since they were kittens, and the third cat was abandoned by a neighbor and chose me as her new human when they left her. Happy to accommodate your companion’s special needs, and will be honest with you if there is something I don’t feel confident about. I also use two water fountain bowls, so your friend will have access to clean, moving water. I am a bar tender and have been doing that work since 2006, 12 years at my current bar. I work part time there and have a good amount of free-time which I can use to take care of of your dog. I have a large fenced in yard (176 ft of 6ft tall wooden fence) with plenty of shade, water bowls, central air and heating. Pets are free to lounge anywhere in my house, but I do prefer dogs to be crated if I am away for their own safety, and peace of mind for me :) Please let me know if you have any rules you have for your pets at home, feeding schedule, potty-break schedule, etc.
About: I say the above because for many years, my long time dog buddy, Shelby (pictured in the photo I'm holding), loved to ride in my car, right by my side. Shelby passed away in 2018 and I miss her so much, every day. In 2019, I rescued a blue heeler/beagle mix, Nova; then in 2024, a shepherd mix, Holly. Dogs have been my companions for more than 40 years, and I have loved caring for, walking, playing, vacationing and just plain hanging with them. . I truly love dogs. They are one of humankind's most noble and steadfast animal friends. I would very much enjoy taking your best friend (or friends) for a walk. I have always enjoyed the company of my canines...and I'm sure I'd feel the same way about your four-legged pals. Plus, getting out with them is great exercise...for both dog and human! I am semi retired, so I have much flexibility in the hours that can be devoted to dog walking. I walk my own dogs in all kinds of weather, which is necessary given the variable climate here in NE Ohio! In my own home, my dogs get out for walks at least three times a day, we well as potty breaks where necessary. They have crates where they can freely go to when they wish to. Most important is that the dogs and I adhere to a stable, regular routine, including feeding and playtimes.
About: I've taken care of many different types of pets for people and have had many years of experience with training and handling dogs specifically. I have experience with small rodents, felines, and canines I am looking mainly for weekend sitting positions or week evenings, weekends being the most flexible, weekdays after five pm preferably, schedule able to be discussed I do not have pets of my own but have house sat pets at owners home. I have also works with dog boarding at a professional facility.
“Caitlin is responsive and communicative! I know my Millie is in good hands whenever Caitlin can sit for her. Plus she updates with pictures and videos. Thanks for all that you do for Millie!”
About: I’ve taken care of my dog since I was 5. I have also had neighbors, family, and friends rely on me with walking and taking care of all different types of dogs ranging from any age. This gave me lots of experience with dogs anywhere from puppies to senior dogs. I am currently working a part time job of only 4 hours shifts; this gives me lots of free time to play and take care of your dog! I am very flexible with your rules you follow with your dog. I have moved a lot with my dog and have been anywhere from a fenced in yard and letting a dog out on their own to having to be put on a leash at all times. Anything and everything works for me!
“We are officially recurring customers. Amber is awesome! She not only cares for the boys but makes sure my house is in good order. She cleaned up the entire yard after my boys which was above and beyond expectations.”
“Julia was fantastic! She was kind, compassionate, and caring towards my kitties and she followed my instructions perfectly (since I have a cat that needs medication). She helped ease my anxiety, gave me updated pictures daily, and was quick to respond if I had any comments or questions. I will absolutely be using her services in the future!”
“Nicole was very responsive and able to come meet me and our dog on a very short notice. She was great with our dog right away and we felt comfortable having her come over to spend time with our dog. She was amazing and very communicative throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend her and we look forward to having her watch our dog again!”
“I was worried about having someone watch my temperamental weiner dog. However, Sharon knew exactly how to handle him! She is very knowledgeable and helpful. I feel so at ease knowing he is in good hands when I’m away for work! She is also very personable and easy to talk to. Thank you Sharon!”
“Melissa was absolutely wonderful, and I am so thankful we found her! She completely eased my anxieties about leaving my two senior, high maintenance dogs for the weekend. It was obvious from the start that she is a true dog person. She followed all of my instructions, communicated clearly, and kept me updated with pictures throughout each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. She was patient, attentive, and more than capable of handling my senior boys and all of their quirks. I truly hope Melissa is willing to watch my pups again in the future because I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy sitter!”
About: I’ve had two dogs of my own since I was four years old. I helped train my second dog when I was 10 years old. I’ve looked after my neighbors dogs while they are away and I have been on Wag! For a year watching people’s dogs as well. I’ll not only make sure your pets are okay while I’m gone, but I’ll go the extra step and make sure they are loved and cared and play with them. I’m currently nannying for the summer from about 8:30-5:30 Tuesdays-Fridays. I’m usually free on the weekends while I’m home for the summer and can always stop by before work and after. At my own home I make sure my dogs are walked at least 2-3 times a day. I keep food off the counter so that the big guy doesn’t reach up and grab it. In your home I can do whatever you feel is necessary to make sure your pet is safe and okay.
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I’m all about walks, belly rubs, and making sure your dog feels totally at home while you are away! I work from home on Mondays and Fridays and have a very flexible schedule on those days. I can care for your dog at my apartment or come to your location and offer up to 4 walks throughout the day. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I’m home by 3:30 PM, so I’m available for walks, potty breaks, playtime, or drop-in care after that time. I’d be happy to care for your dog either at my place or by stopping by your home! When pets stay with me, they’re part of the family. I stick to their routine as closely as possible—meals, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved with plenty of attention, cuddles, and exercise. Whether your pup loves fetch or just lounging, I adjust to their personality and pace. I also keep communication open, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priority!
“My dogs were great. Brendan checked in every time and sent me pictures. My dogs are very calm and I can tell no stress that we were gone for a couple of days. Would absolutely ask Brendan again. Thank you!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, there were always pets in the house, so caring for animals has been a natural part of my daily routine for years. Today, I have three cats of my own who get plenty of love, attention, and care. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away Pet care is already part of my daily routine. I care for my three cats every day, including feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and making sure they’re happy and healthy. Because I’m used to planning my day around animals’ needs, adding walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting fits naturally into my schedule. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide reliable care and attention while owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed on schedule, receive plenty of attention, and get any exercise or playtime requested. I respect my clients’ homes, keep doors and gates secure, and provide updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and comfortable while they’re away

I can’t recommend Madison enough! She’s reliable, friendly, and truly cares about my dog. Piper gets so excited whenever she arrives, which says a lot! I always receive updates, photos, and a summary of the walk, which gives me peace of mind when I’m at work or away. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a responsible and loving dog walker!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bay Village 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 Bay Village 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 .

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.

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.
