“This was our first time with Gianna and also the first time leaving our three month old puppy. Everything went beautifully. Gianna cared exceptionally well for our puppy and older dog and left our house in perfect order!”
“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!”
“Monica did a great job looking after our 2 dogs and 3 senior cats, while we were out of town for a week (house sitting). She stayed at our house and did a great job of communicating and sending pictures. Our dogs fell in love with her. Everybody was happy and well adjusted when we returned. We would highly recommend Monica!”
About: I grew up with dogs. I can groom, bathe, walk, and clean up throw up. I have been relied on by friends and family to let their dogs out and feed them while they are out of town. I am currently a college kid searching for an internship, so my days are wide open! I tend to go on walks during the day, so bringing along a furry friend would be great company. I will follow the directions given to me so your dog will be comfortable with a stranger entering their house. I am great with boundaries.
About: I’ve always been a pet person- my dad is a veterinarian and we’ve lived with many dogs, cats and other animals throughout the years. I am well versed in caring for dogs of all sizes, as well as cats, reptiles, and backyard chickens. I am a very calm and patient person, and if your pet is on the shyer side, I will take as much time as they need to adjust to me. My schedule is fairly flexible, and I can usually stay with pets for several hours during the day. If I cannot stay for long periods of time, I aim to stop by at least 2-3 times per day to check on everything/let dogs out. When letting dogs out, I closely monitor them, and if the yard allows, I will give them plenty of outside time. If there is a suitable area near your home, I don’t mind driving dogs short distances for walks. My car is fairly small, so I will probably have a limit of 2 medium sized dogs that can fit in it.
“Lee was a fantastic caretaker for our 2 Labradors. One of our dogs is very shy and Lee took the time to connect with her. She was very dependable and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing. She stayed in our home and when we returned, Lee had taken the time to tidy up before we returned with some light cleaning. I would highly recommend Lee.”
About: I’ve always had a love and passion for animals (even dreaming about being a Vet as a kid). I’ve had many different pets throughout my lifetime from dogs and cats to hamsters and fish. I even have experience with administering medicine and caring for my elderly dog. I’m currently working full time as an education aide in an elementary school, so my availability is mornings/evenings on weekdays and anytime during the day or night on the weekend! I am currently caring for my very own cat that is very playful and receives lots of love and cuddles. I’ve also had dogs growing up so I have experience playing with them, letting them out/taking them on walks, feeding them, administering medicine, and even crating them.
“Kelsey is fantastic. We have already booked her again. She is an animal lover- and was super with our Golden. Great experience dog and house sitting - perfect communication, reliable, professional and a happy dog.”
“Kurstin was amazing ! She kept me up to date on my pets daily and sent pictures. This was my first experience having someone watch over my reactive dog who can be a menace on the leash and she handled her perfectly! Has experience watching small pets and reptiles as well!”
“Molly was able to watch our dogs very last minute. She was a good communicator throughout the stay and was helpful about bringing in our packages. She also took the sheets off the guest bed before leaving, which we appreciated! Overall, a great experience!”
About: I’ve provided care for animals since I was a young child. Successfully completed a basic dog training course at Alaska SPCA in 2016. My skill ranges from walks to grooming, I’ve got you covered! Currently, I’m working full-time with free availability Sunday through Tuesday! I will require at least a three day notice before the date of booking. Please message me for any questions you may have! I have a balcony and plenty of space for your fur baby to lounge and play. Currently my roommate is an agreeable cat. Chai is pleasant and tolerable to other cats and small dogs.
“We have two loud and energetic pups and Marti took great care of them while we were away. She provided excellent communication and updates. We also appreciate how responsive she was throughout the vetting and booking process. We will definitely use her in the future and recommend her to anyone.”
About: I stand out because of my years of experience, genuine love for being with dogs, and a track record of trust with numerous satisfied clients who have relied on my services!

“This was our first time ever hiring a dog sitter and we are so happy with how much love and attention they received. Makenna made our dogs feel comfortable, happy, and relaxed which in return made us feel the same. Makenna communicated with us regularly, sent lots of pictures and videos, and was accommodating when our flights were changed and we got home much later in the night (morning??) than anticipated. We are so grateful for finding someone who cares deeply for our fur babies. Thank you!”
“Megan and Jeremiah were great. It was only one night, but they took great care of my foster dog, Zoey. They left my house prsotiem and even took out my garbage! They were both very friendly and kind.”

Gianna is great with our dogs! She carefully reviews instructions and is sure to follow them. Our dogs respond well to her. She is meticulous about leaving our house in perfect condition, as well. Clear, frequent communication and pictures while we are away. We will certainly use Gianna in the future.
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was incredibly understanding and accommodating, always punctual and took such wonderful care of our pets. It was clear from the moment we met her that she genuinely loves animals and we felt completely reassured knowing they were in such caring hands. We would highly recommend her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Thank you so much! 🐾❤️
Thank you for taking such great care of all my pets while I was away. Margaret provided outstanding care for them. She kept me apprised with many pictures and videos which gave me peace of mind that they were good hands! All instructions were followed. She went above and beyond by washing all the dishes so that when I came home there was nothing for me to do. I highly recommend her and will reach out to her again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Chagrin Falls 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 Chagrin Falls 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 Chagrin Falls 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
