“Octavia was very patient, observant, and a good problem solver with our socially resistant dog who can nip at people he doesn’t know. She has her own dog so is not doing this to get her dog needs met, but to make a living. She was a reliable communicator.”
“Mont’e was absolutely amazing! He provided excellent care for my cat and dog while house sitting. I was pretty nervous to leave town and Mont’e was super kind and professional. He updated me regularly, took my dog on walks, and even took her to his family’s Christmas Eve celebration (after asking of course) because I was worried about her having separation anxiety! Mont’e treated my pets as if they were his own and when I came back they were both super calm and relaxed because of the great care provided. Mont’e was also super respectful of my home and left it very neat and tidy! Highly recommend Mont’e for all pet sitting needs, I’ll definitely be asking him to come back!”
About: I adore dogs, and I’ve been dogsitting and dog walking for the past 3-4 years. I also fostered two adorable dogs, both pittie mixes, from my local shelter earlier this year. I can’t wait to meet your dog! I’ll make sure you have nothing to worry about while you’re busy, working, or on vacation. I recently earned my master of public health, so my schedule is pretty flexible while I job hunt! I can do weekdays or weekends right now. You can give me a detailed schedule or just general rules for your dog—either is fine! I can communicate with you about how your dog is doing as much as you’d like, including pictures and information about their meals, etc.
“Christina was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond. She house sat for us and took care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats. Unfortunately, one of our dogs needed emergency care while we were away. We are so grateful for her for taking our pup to the emergency vet and staying with her until 4:00am! She administered meds and was able to care for her until we came home. Even with all of that excitement, all of our animals were content when we got home!”
“Elizabeth was phenomenal! She sent pictures everyday of my two cats and kept my mind at ease while being away. Also came home to a spotless home and the place better than when we left it! Will 100% rebook in the future for my next trip.”
“Chris and Amanda are the best. Our dog Boone has a lot of anxiety but within minutes of our first meet and greet I could tell Chris and Amanda were a going to be a great personality fit. During our vacation they sent regular updates and photos, and when we returned home Boone acted like we had never even left! He was perfectly content and well-cared for during our week away. We will definitely book with them again for future travel. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I have has pets since I was 5 years old. Dogs of all ages and sizes, cats, fish, and reptiles! I enjoy caring for all living creatures, even snakes and spiders! I am working part time, mainly Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights so I have LOTS of availability during the week days and nights to take care of your pets! I have many years of experience with on leash and off leash walking, fenced and open yards, and crating. I have a lot of experience with dogs that have been through extreme trauma, so I can easily adapt to their specific needs and routines so that they are safe and well taken care of!
“Emily was amazing! She did a wonderful job taking care of my baby, Hank. He even got sick one night and Emily kept me updated. She even set hourly alarms to check on him to make sure he was still doing okay. She kept me informed during the entire time I was out of town and I was able to enjoy my time away without having to worry too much about Hank. I HIGHLY recommend Emily for any pet sitting needs, but especially if you have a large breed dog! She was phenomenal.”
“Peyton was amazing!! Very accommodating, communicative, and a true professional! Our dog Toby felt comfortable with Peyton immediately, and we could tell how happy he was in every update picture she sent us. 100/10 would recommend to anyone and everyone!”
“Devaney was amazing with our high energy/high anxiety pitty mix. We were so nervous to leave because last time when we didn’t have a sitter (just intermittent walker/feeder) she tore up the place with anxiety. Devaney sent me frequent updates and pictures all weekend and we even came home to a very clean apartment. She gave my cat lots of loving as well! 10/10 recommend and will be booking with her again!”
“Ishmell was great! We had such peace of mind knowing he was at our house with our pup and appreciated all the text and photo updates we got. I would 100% book with him again!”
“I booked Christine for two nights of house sitting my dog and cat and she did a great job! She took the time to understand their routine and needs. Both my girls were instantly comfortable with her, she kept the house tidy, and she kept me updated throughout the day with pictures. I will be booking Christine again in the future and highly recommend her to look after your pets.”
About: Does your dog like nature walks or is it more of a structured walk play type of animal? I can provide both. We can take long walks outdoors or we can find an area that is more city like and spend some time walking around. I have over 20 years experience caring for dogs. I have kids and treat my pets like my children they will be very loved. I have an open schedule I can work from 6am to at least 9 pm. I do not have a preference on the type of dog as I have owned from toy to giant and can handle them without any problems. We will play catch, run, and will provide obedience training at owners request.Will provide toys. DOES NOT PROVIDE CAT SERVICES HIGHLY ALLERGIC!!! I am currently self employed so I can provide all the love to your pups, right now I have a lot of love to give your baby. I do currently offer overnight services. If client wants dog to play in their personal yard I will follow the direction provided by the owner.
About: I have professional animal care experience of 4+ years working in a dog daycare/boarding facility and in pet stores where I cared for small mammals, reptiles, and fish. I've also had dogs and cats my whole life. New to cleveland area, looking to explore and earn on this side gig! I currently work as a bartender- almost exclusively at night, so my days are very open! The perfect fit for me would be jobs in the early afternoon. With love, kindness, and respect! Animals are living creatures and should be treated as such. That being said I'm aware certain animals will need specific care and would do whatever I could to comply with them :)
About: Ever since I was a young child I have been surrounded by and cared for pets of all kinds including dogs, cats, hamsters, Guinea pigs, and even some reptiles. I have experience caring for, and giving medicine to elderly dogs and can work with an animal if any size! I’m currently a full time college student, actress, and baker. I love animals and have been a pet parent my whole life. I am available all weekend and even some weekdays! I almost exclusively go off of the care instructions provided by the client, including any feeding, exercise, and medical instructions. In terms of walking I always care poo bags and water so that the pet is always taken care of!
About: Taking care of my cats for the past several years, and constantly taking my dog on walks and taking care of her in her old age. I work part time, but on the off days I am free at pretty much all the time. I am free on most wednesdays, fridays, saturdays and sundays to care for your pets. I take a lot of care in making sure that animals do not escape from a yard or their leash, and I am willing to crate your dogs if needed.
“I’m so grateful for Brittney’s care of my two dogs and two cats during the Christmas week.From the start, she was responsible, reliable and kind. She visited our house twice a day, even during Christmas. Gave my cat medication properly and gently.She left my home clean and tidy. Most importantly, my furry babies felt safe and happy with her. They bonded with Brittney so quickly, and could see they were in wonderful hands. Her calm presence and reliability gave us peace of mind while we were away of the country and it’s so good to have now someone we can trust when a new trip comes. Our schedule changed several times and I’m so grateful for her flexibility and patience! I will definitely hire Brittney again! Thank you Brittney for everything - you made a world of difference for us!”
“Kaylie is amazing and made sure to give lots of updates and photos. She was a fantastic sitter for my pup and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future!”

Nate was wonderful with our cat Lucy over a week-long housesitting stay at our home. He is great at communication, was open to and respectful of our specific requests, and treated our home and our elderly companion with great care. He responded to our request quickly, was specific and prompt about his arrival and departure, left the house better than we left it to him, and, most importantly, left us with a content and healthy cat. Nate's consistent pictures and updates gave us great comfort on our travels. He was very clear and precise about the time he would be spending with Lucy, and more specifically about if and when he would be away. He spent more time overall with our old girl than any sitters we've had in the past. We feel very fortunate that Nate chose to work with us and grace our home and wonderful pet with his presence. I highly suggest Nate and his services, and we know that Lucy looks forward to his company in the future. Thank you, Nate!
We’ve been using Chris for over a year now, and he’s absolutely wonderful with Henry and Miles. He’s dependable, attentive, and always follows their care instructions carefully - including Henry’s medication and crate routine. It’s such a relief knowing our dogs and home are in the hands of someone we completely trust. We always come home to two happy, well-cared-for pups. We couldn’t recommend Chris and Amanda more highly!
Jordan was excellent with our two dogs, a senior-girl with hip issues and a 7-month old obsessed with endless fetch. Communication was good and we got regular updates throughout the week. The dogs were happy when we got home and the house was left in great condition as well. Would be happy to have Jordan here again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Beachwood is $83 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $83 and $83 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,350 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Beachwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Beachwood walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Beachwood maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Beachwood 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
