“Our dachshunds spent a week at a resort! They were pampered and loved, spoiled rotten and loved the heated blanket. I can’t say enough great things about these amazing people and their children who took such great care of our Doxies - I’m not sure they wanted to leave!!!”
“Let me preface by saying, we have 3 young but very large dogs. All three of our dogs are VERY ENERGETIC and about 70 pounds each! We were in the area for our wedding and wanted the pups to be apart of our day but not remain stuck in crates in the meantime. Yuwadee was AMAZING!!!! She worked with our wedding plans and schedule! She played with our pups and ran out some of their energy! AND SHE SENT US TONS OF PLAYFUL PHOTOS WHICH WAS PERFECT FOR A CRAZY DOG MOM LIKE ME! I can not express my gratitude enough for the part she played in our wedding weekend and this will 100% NOT be the last time we book with this AMAZING SITTER! She was so accommodating and so communicative! My three pups loved her and her patience with them was more than I could have ever asked for!”
“This was my first time using Rover. I chose Kathrine B because of her GREAT reviews. I can’t say enough good things about Kathrine and her excellent care of my fur baby Annie! I got to do a meet and greet with Katherine and Annie and it went really well. Her home was clean, neat and odor free. I would highly recommend her, she even socialized my Annie which I am forever grateful! Looking forward to booking with Katherine again!!”
“Chayna took great care of Bodhi! She kept me updated with pictures throughout his stay, and he looked like he had a great time. I'll definitely be booking with Chayna again.”
“Yui was amazing with our pup. He had some tummy issues while we were on vacation and Yui went above and beyond to care for him, even making him chicken and rice. She was also super flexible when our travel plans got changed at the last minute. We are so grateful for her care of our dog!”
“It was our first time leaving Bo with Lauren and her family. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated on him during his stay. He enjoyed his stay and came home wore out from all the fun he had with her two babies, Fynn and Gwenn! We will definitely be using them again! :)”
About: I have been pet-sitting both cats and dogs for friends and family for many years. I have handled dogs large and small. I provide plenty of activity for high-energy pets or a calm, relaxing, quiet environment for those who may be nervous or shy. Your pet will get plenty of cuddles and love with me! I am available for boarding or sitting weekdays after 5pm and all weekend. I do have a fenced in yard as well as a large indoor crate if your pet is okay with alone time during my workdays. I have a fenced in yard on a large lot, as well as a crate indoors if needed. I keep a very close watch on your pet, and they will be out of the crate unless needed or preferred by you. I can set the pet bed (or crate) up in the bedroom with me or in a separate empty guest room if they prefer alone time. I am knowledgeable on safety measures for pets as I have been a pet owner for 11+ years.
“Amy was the absolute BEST! She took care of our baby girl exactly how I had hoped. She sent multiple photos and videos and helped to ease any fears that I had of leaving our puppy for the first time with someone other than family. We can’t thank her enough!”
“Nataly is fantastic! We’re so happy and relieved to have found someone this caring for our senior dog. Updates and photos every evening were great as well. Thank you very much for the peace of mind, we’ll be back soon!”
“Archana took care of peanut very well. Peanut is usually very anxious with new people, but I was pleasantly to see that peanut felt like home with Archana. Thanks a lot Archana for taking care of Peanut”
“Kassidy is a top notch dog sitter! I believe my pup had the best time roaming her fenced in property and was sad to leave. Kassidy provided updates and photos and ensured Priscilla was loved and cared for the entire time. I would highly recommended!”
“Michael took such wonderful care of our dog, Winner. From the moment they met, I could tell Winner felt comfortable and happy. When we picked him up, he was cheerful. I can see he was well-loved and well-cared for. It’s such a relief knowing our pup is in such good hands. Thank you for treating Winner like one of your own!”
About: I’ve personally been interested and training dogs since I was 10. As a young adult I worked at a dog daycare, volunteered at a dog kennel and continued to train and work my personal dogs until I joined the military. I’ve recently become a Certified Full Service Dog trainer as a veteran through the VA. I have experience working with both pet dogs and working dogs. I value integrity and helping improve both the dog and handler for future success. Excited to teach and learn for the community, hopefully expanding after! I’m currently a full time student but will still offer night walks and training sessions after class during the week. I’ll be available the full weekend for full day/ overnight drop ins, and training sessions! I have a high standard for safety and wellness. Ensuring the environment is safe and secure for the dog. Providing proper equipment for exercise, trainings, walks. Giving updates and information throughout the service.
“First time using Frida's doggy boarding service and it was nothing but amazing! I have a very anxious Pomeranian, and I was nervous how she would react being away from me. I think I was the one with the separation anxiety because my doggy did great with Frida! Frida was attentive, nurturing, she sent me updates with pictures reassuring me my Baby was doing great! She's very compassionate and will care for your pup 100% I will definitely use her services again. I feel calm knowing I can trust her and know my pup feels safe a cared for with her. Thank you!”
About: Hi I’m Liz and I absolutely love animals! When I was younger I was always wanting to help out any animal I could find. I grew up with cats and a dog but once I got married my husband was allergic to cats so I never got to own my own cat. But I foster dogs on the side! I don’t work with any agencies, I just help certain life or death situations or senior pups who were denied proper care. I currently own 7 dogs ranging from all ages puppy to senior. I also own what most people call “difficult” breeds Akitas, Shibas, huskies, German Shepherds, Pomeranians, and Samoyed! I have a few puppies in training at my house and would love to share my knowledge of dogs with others! If you have training questions I’d love to help you and get you on the right track! I can’t wait to meet your pup! I’m currently working full time but I get off at 3-4pm each day and I am off Saturday and Sunday. I have a lot of wiggle room and would love to accommodate any way I can! I want to care for your pet in the same manner you do! I want your pet to feel like I am a second care human they are close and comfortable with. I will follow your instructions to a “T” so they aren’t left missing you too much! Right now I will only be offering your home for services but maybe some day mine as well :)
“Amazing pet sitter — highly recommended! She accommodated our last-minute request and took such great care of our puppy. Our puppy looked so happy, comfortable, and well taken care of the entire time. She was wonderful to work with, very caring, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Definitely an amazing sitter, and we would absolutely book with her again!”
“Emily was very patient with our stubborn English Bulldog. Her space was comfortable for our dog’s needs— added bonus of a fenced backyard. Emily is kind, compassionate, and responsive to communications. Would 100% recommend and use her services again.”
“Nicole was amazing with our daughter’s kitten! She opened her home and heart for him and sent pictures daily. We (especially our daughter) felt so much relief knowing he was being taken care of so well and that helped give us peace of mind during our vacation.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Cleveland is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $44 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 October 2026, there are 221 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cleveland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Cleveland can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cleveland home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Cleveland.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Cleveland sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in GA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
