About: I’ve had mang different dogs since I was little, taking care of them and taking them out often! I’ve also taken care of family members cats along with dogs too. I Absolutely love taking care of dogs and cats of all breeds and I have no issues with size. I’m currently working part-time! So on my off days I’ll have plenty of time to come and see your pets and take care of them! I’ll be able to spend plenty of time with your pets on my off days! And even after work! I live in a standard apartment but I do live near a large park! Giving your animals room to play and be themselves. I will always make sure they have my undivided attention! I also enjoy playing with them and helping them feel safe and cared for. During the week, I help with tasks such as grooming, cleaning litter boxes or pet areas, taking dogs on walks, and checking that pets are active and healthy. Caring for pets has helped me become more responsible, patient, and organized with my time.
“Joe was amazing and did a great job with our fur babies. We wanted to find someone that would love our dogs and also we felt comfortable around our 100+ pound Alaskan Malamute and our Huskies (plus their endless amount of fur!). They all loved spending time with Joe and he took lots of great pictures. He was on time and made sure to update us constantly. We would absolutely recommend him and will be calling him for moments we need someone to drop in on them.”

About: I worked with rescues in the Cleveland area .I have been around dogs my whole life I just want to be able to care and love the fur babies. I unfortunately had to put my fur baby down at 12 and now I miss having the company around the house. Due to the fact that I only take one to two families at a time my rates are a little higher to compensate for quality care with a less volume high animal environment for our fur babies. I can’t wait meet all the wonderful fur babies soon 🐾🐶🦴 I did rescue a new fur baby so I am updating that part of my profile. Her name is Giada and she is a French Bulldog she is a sweet calmer girl that just enjoys being around the house she doesn’t play with toys much but enjoys chewing on bones and she follows me around where ever I go. She loves my daughters dogs and recent bookings that I have had she smells and shows interest not a mean bone in her body she basically just lays around and does her own thing 🐾🐶❤️ so even though I host 1 to two families at a time all requests must be dog friendly thanks so much for your understanding ☺️ I am home all day long so I can be there to care for your fur baby. They will think they are at there home I am home all day with a fenced in yard so the pups can be outside to play and they will have free roam of my home
“Erin was great. Timely, great photo updates, and no news to report. Will definitely be reaching out to her again! That was the first time using Rover, and first time leaving my dog for a full weekend without a family member, and all went well!”

About: I’ve been connecting with all types of pets since I was a child. As a detail oriented pet carer, I always prioritize safety. But my favorite part of the job is the fun, hugs and satisfaction I get from treating your fur babies like they’re my own. I have a flexible schedule which allows me to provide detailed safe care for your pets. It also allows me to spend time for walking, playing, and of course hugs. For stop in visits, I focus on following directions, so I can safely care for and spend time with your pets meeting all of their needs.

About: Hi! I'm excited to offer dependable, loving pet care through Rover. As a lifelong animal lover and dog owner myself, I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently have my own pup, Charlie, who has taught me firsthand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and plenty of love and attention. Caring for Charlie has given me daily experience with walks, playtime, routines, and understanding the unique personalities that make every dog special. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, simply some extra attention while you're away, my goal is to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide personalized care that keeps them happy and stress-free. Services may include walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, administering medications if needed, potty breaks, belly rubs, and plenty of companionship. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your home and your pets. I respect your space, follow instructions carefully, and work hard to maintain your pet's normal routine while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, your cat prefers quiet companionship, or your pet simply needs a familiar face during the day, I'm committed to providing reliable and attentive care. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and building a lasting relationship based on trust, communication, and exceptional care. I work full time during the week, so pet care fits best into my evenings and weekends. I’m available for walks after work and have more flexibility on weekends for extra time with pets. I will follow each pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and I make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I’m attentive to their needs, keep their space clean and make sure they feel secure while their owners are away.
“Aspen is fantastic! She’s prompt and a great communicator. She’s helpful and goes above and beyond. My dog, Macie, loves her and looks forward to her visits!!”

“It was a super simple process and everything worked out perfectly! She took our last minute booking and sent pictures of our dog during each visit for peace of mind. I'm so happy to have found this service (:”

“Our cats absolutely loved Jackie! Our more skittish cat came right up to Jackie when they first met and instantly rolled over for tummy rubs! While we were out of town, Jackie took great care of our two cats and provided great photos!”

About: Hi there! My name is Ireland, if you ever need someone to check in on your furry one during the day, I’d love to help. I’ve been the go‑to dog walker and pet‑check‑in person for neighbors for over 10 years, and caring for furry friends has genuinely become one of my favorite parts of life. I’m extremely reliable, consistent, and always treat every dog like they’re one of my own and trust me, mine set the bar high. I currently have two big, lovable goofballs at home: a Saint Bernedoodle and a Golden Doodle, both tipping the scales at over 100 pounds. So whether your pup is tiny, timid, energetic, or extra‑large, I’m fully prepared and experienced. If you’re looking for someone who shows up, pays attention, and makes your dog feel safe, happy, and loved, I’m your girl. Big dogs, small dogs, shy dogs, wild dogs - I walk them all like they’re my own. ❣️ I’m currently attending Cleveland State University’s Accelerated Nursing Program, and because the program is fully online, it gives me incredible flexibility throughout the day. I’m able to structure my coursework around your pet’s needs, which means I can reliably stop in for walks, check‑ins, feedings, or whatever support your family needs. Caring for animals fits naturally into my daily routine, and I love having that balance of studying and spending time with your furry one. When I’m caring for a pet whether in my home or yours my approach is simple: treat them like family and keep their routine steady, safe, and stress‑free. • Routine consistency - I follow your pet’s normal schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, and playtime so everything feels familiar and comforting. • Detailed communication - You’ll get updates, photos, and notes so you always know how your furry one is doing. • Respect for your space - I keep your home tidy, follow all house rules, and make sure your pet’s environment stays clean and safe. • Behavior + comfort check‑ins - I pay attention to mood, appetite, energy, and any changes so you’re always in the loop. • Experience with large breeds I currently own two gentle giants a Saint Bernedoodle and a Goldendoodle, both over 100 lbs so I’m very comfortable managing big personalities and big paws. • Play, enrichment, and affection - Walks, mental stimulation, cuddles, and attention are all part of the package. • Cleanliness + comfort - Fresh water, clean bowls, cozy rest spots, and a calm environment are always maintained. Why You Can Trust Me: • 10+ years of experience caring for neighbors’ pets • Extremely reliable. I show up, communicate, and follow through. • Comfortable with all sizes — from tiny pups to 100+ lb doodles. • Genuine love for animals — I treat every pet like it’s my own.

About: Dogs have honestly always been a huge part of my life, so caring for them feels really natural to me. Between growing up around dogs and now raising my own puppy, I’m used to the chaos, energy, routines, and all the little personalities that come with them. I’m comfortable with everything from walks and potty breaks to baths, playtime, crate routines, and helping reinforce good habits. I love getting to know each dog individually — whether they’re super energetic, clingy, goofy, or more laid-back. My goal is always to make them feel comfortable, loved, and like they’re just hanging out with someone they already know and trust ♡ My schedule is pretty flexible right now! I’m currently interning Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 10am–6pm, but I’m available mornings, evenings, and overnight care on those days if needed. Wednesdays and weekends are the most open in my schedule, so I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention throughout the day ♡ Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my biggest priority. During walks, I’m very attentive to surroundings, leash safety, and making sure pets stay comfortable and secure at all times. For in-home drop-ins, I do my best to keep pets relaxed by following their normal routine and giving them lots of care, attention, and patience in their own environment. I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s boundaries, and I always make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away ♡
“Madi was just fabulous! She was consistent with visiting and taking care of my cat and worked with my apartment manager for apartment access. She communicated well and I appreciated her following up. I will definitely rebook!”
About: i’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes for several years now and always treat them as my own. your dog will feel right at home at my house with lots of room for play time and also lots of cozy places to snuggle! I work full time but am available intermittently through the week and on weekends for daytime and overnight care. We enjoy taking walks and exploring the city but also napping and relaxing when needed! I have a semi fenced in yard that is pretty spacious. Dogs are always leashed when taken out for safety purposes. Cleanliness is a top priority along with making sure your dog is happy and healthy.
“I am new to town and so happy to have found Shandra! Shandra took care of my two kitties and she is a consummate professional. I have a tricky situation going on right now where I've taken in a stray and the two are separated most of the time right now, and I really appreciate Shandra's willingness to deal with the routines and separate actions needed for both. She not only cared for each cat separately but provided great reports on how each were doing, together and separate. Her communication and dependability was excellent throughout the booking process, meet-and-greet, and sitting duration. My kitties were content and happy when I returned. Not only was Shandra an excellent sitter, but she did the dishes, brought in packages and filled my many humidifiers. I am very grateful for her assistance during my absence! Thanks, Shandra!”

“Jules was amazing and I will definitely be using her services again! She was very detailed in her updates always included pictures and helped keep my kitty cool during the heat wave! Highly recommend :)”

About: I have always had a deep love for animals, especially dogs, and caring for them comes naturally to me. With years of hands-on experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable handling large breeds, small breeds, and everything in between, and I understand how their needs can vary depending on their size and stage of life. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, medications, and of course plenty of playtime and affection. Pet sitting isn’t just a job to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. I am currently in school but available almost everyday after 3:00 and in the summer available all day, everyday to take care of your pets! I have a large fenced in yard and big house with a big kennel if needed. I have a very friendly cat and cavalier King Charles spaniel however they can easily be separated from your pet if required!

Katherine was very good at communicating with me each day , sent me pictures of my dogs showing me they were fine.I truly appreciate her service and dedication to making me feel comfortable with her. I was able to go on vacation carefree knowing she was taking care of my dogs. Can’t thank you enough.

Nicole was truly amazing and was so flexible with us. She respected our home and had patience with our puppy. She’s a great communicator and always stood in touch with us. If you’re ever looking for someone local and affordable, Nicole outshines the competition! Thank you!!

Paige was incredible! They hopped in super last minute and were able to stop in and take care of my pup after a sitter canceled. They followed all directions and was very patient with our boy in a situation that was new for him. Could not recommend enough!
