About: I'm a huge animal lover and was lucky enough to grow up with lots of pets from rodents to dogs to horses. I've walked big (150lb+) dogs, small dogs, and everything in between with no issues. Until I was 15 years old, my dad had my siblings and I convinced he was allergic to cats because he didn't want us asking to get one. Jokes on him that the majority of us are now cat parents. While I've had my menace of a cat (I love her to pieces even though she's turning my hair as gray as hers) for only a few years, I've still been around cats throughout my life and am attuned to their particular brand of affection. I have experience pet-sitting from bunnies to a pack of seven high energy dogs. If you're looking for a non-dog or cat sitter, give me a shot! I'm very determined to give pets the best care possible, and if I'm unsure of any instructions will not hesitate to ask for clarification no matter how menial the task may appear. No animal's needs are too particular or niche for me. Must walk counterclockwise around the block? Easy. Food must be microwaved for 12 seconds, but stop it with one second on the clock? No problem. Got to pretend their medicine is human food that was "accidentally" spilled on the floor and I need to "rush" to pick it up before Fido gets it? Done. My availability leans more towards the morning or evening, but I'm happy to work with you to best fit your care requirements. I do my best to keep my calendar updated, especially for weekends, but if you're wondering if I'm available please don't hesitate to ask! No amount of instructions are too much for me! I once left three hand written pages of notes on how to care for my hamster. I will follow them to the letter, and not hesitate to ask if I have any questions. Ensuring your family member is happy, healthy, and comfortable in their home is my number one priority.
About: I have taken care of animals for sixty plus years. Friends and family have entrusted me with caring for their pets. I have always had animals in my life. I am a retired nurse I am available to care for pets most days. I am trustworthy dependable and caring. Animals are a blessing to me. I have a huge fenced in backyard, with two friendly golden retrievers who would love to play with your pet. Also I can crate if needed.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have experience with small dogs and big dogs. I have gone through puppy kindergarten classes with my dog as well. I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, Guinea pigs, birds and bearded dragons. Pet care fits into my routine as I am pretty flexible on weekends, so that I can let them out frequently. I work as an instructional assistant for an elementary school. I can care for animals before and after work as well as my lunch breaks. I follow the school schedule and get holidays and breaks off as well. I prefer staying in the clients home so that the pets can stay in their comfort zone and as close to their normal routine. With that said, I am also very flexible. I can stay in the home, offer drop in visits or care for them in my home. Whatever the client prefers.
About: I have been a regular pet sitter for friends, family, and coworkers since I was a teenager. I have experience with large or small dogs, elderly dogs, cats, and pets that need medication or other accommodations. I have experience with dog-sitting for up to two weeks at a time. This has sometimes included, but is not limited to, administering medication, cleaning up messes inside and outside, walking, feeding, and bathing. Ensuring the safety, health, and happiness of each pet I take care of is my top priority and it is one of my favorite things to do in the world! I work full-time Monday-Friday, so I am only available for pet sitting beginning after 6pm Friday-Sunday. If there is a need for a drop in visit or walk after 6pm during the week, please reach out to me and I may be able to do that. I am unable to have pets at my house because I live with a family member’s dog that does not do well with other animals. Please give me any and all instructions! I will make sure to follow any routine that I can for your pet to be comfortable. I will provide as many updates/photos as requested.
About: Hi! I’m Jas, a college student completing my classes remotely and an experienced pet sitter with over 3 years of caring for animals. Being home throughout the day gives me the flexibility to provide your pet with plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime. I truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, puppies, kittens, senior pets, and multi-pet households. I’m comfortable with dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, boarding, and administering medications. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra care, I’m happy to follow their routine, their boundaries and give them the attention they deserve. I absolutely adore my pets and I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members, and I look forward to providing them with a safe, fun, and loving home away from home! I am currently a college student who's courses are mostly online, I do not work so I am very flexible! I am located in the McCordsville area.

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for both my own pets and other people’s animals, I’ve worked with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and temperaments! My experience extends beyond dogs and cats to include caring for a pony and goats. I’m comfortable adapting to different animals and their individual routines, personalities, and needs. One of my biggest strengths is working with dogs who need a little extra understanding. I have hands-on experience with reactive, fearful, anxious, and avoidant dogs, and I’ve personally rescued and rehabilitated two pit bulls. I currently own a German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois mix and continue to work with dogs of various breeds and temperaments. I understand that not every pet is immediately comfortable with a new person, and that’s okay! I believe in patience, respecting boundaries, and allowing animals to build trust at their own pace. Whether your pet is outgoing and energetic or shy and cautious, my goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care that meets them where they are. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life, so incorporating visits for other pets into my routine comes naturally! I offer flexible scheduling for drop in visits and walks, including recurring visits and vacation care. A few days’ notice is always appreciated, but I’m happy to consider same day requests when my schedule allows. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s established routine! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well being are always my top priorities! I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, boundaries, and any special needs before providing care. I’m especially attentive to body language and signs of stress, particularly with anxious, fearful, or reactive animals. I follow your instructions carefully, respect your pet’s comfort level, and never force interactions. I’m also mindful of secure doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings to help keep everyone safe. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are receiving patient, attentive care in their own familiar environment.
About: I grew up in a veterinary family! Does your dog require grooming daily, pills, insulin, or even daily runs? Perfect! I aim to be available for all dogs even ones with special needs!

I have lots of animal experience with all different kinds of animals, including exotics! I have been working with and training animals with behavioral issues for 2 years now, and it's become my biggest passion.

I have an hour and a half break during the day as well so I can visit and give potty & play breaks at least 3 times a day!

“Bee was great with Evey! They were communicative and showed up in the agreed time frame. Evey was happy to have some long afternoon walks and came home both times worn out which I appreciate!!”

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a dog and recently became a dog owner myself, and I quickly realized just how much joy, comfort, and companionship they bring into our lives. I’m completely obsessed with my own pup and know firsthand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable when you can’t be there. There was a time when I needed someone to help care for my pup, and I remember how much that support meant to me. Now, I’d love to be that person for other pet parents. Whether your dog needs a walk, some extra attention, or simply a little companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same patience, care, and affection I’d want for my own. I’m excited to get to know each pup’s unique personality and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re in my care. 🐾 With a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pup the walks, attention, and love they deserve! 🐾 I know how much peace of mind it brings to have someone you trust care for your dog, and I’d love to be that person for you and your pup. My pup is crate-trained and has his own comfortable space for when I’m not home, but otherwise he’s free to roam around the house as he pleases. We also have a backyard where he can safely enjoy some fresh air, play, and explore. I want any dog staying with us to feel comfortable, relaxed, and right at home.
About: Ever since I’ve was little I’ve always was involved with animals in some kind of way and once I turned 14 I start training dogs and just being more involved with every animal. My plan is to be a veterinarian one day but until then I plan on taking care of and interacting with so many animals until then ( i do not currently own any pets). Well I work for my self so I’m home majority of the day anyways so taking a walk, or going to a sitting will never be a problem since my schedule is 100% free I have beds, toys and different types of food set up for any boarding that I might have and I also have a huge fenced in back yard for play time and even on rainy days I have a pet play area set up in my garage(it’s attached to my home and heated) to play in on rainy days I have a fenced in yard so that they can play outside as much as they want, I’m even setting/building my back yard more just to accommodate dogs with certain special needs that can’t do certain things. I also listen to pet parent needs and will help with Leash training/basic commands even going to potty throughout their stay

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. Dogs have been part of my life since I was seven years old, and over the years I've rescued animals, volunteered with pet organizations, and fostered Boston Terriers and Havanese dogs rescued from puppy mills. During the past year and a half, I've cared for dogs, cats, and even chickens through TrustedHousesitters across Colorado, Montana, Wisconsin, and Indiana. I've been entrusted with everything from weekend stays to six-month house sits, and I truly enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality, routines, and quirks. My goal is to provide pets with a calm, loving, and safe experience while their families are away. Whether we're going for walks, playing, cuddling, or simply keeping each other company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also love sending photos and updates so you can feel connected to your furry family members while you're away. I recently settled in Colorado and am excited to make caring for animals my primary focus. In addition to pet care, I also have extensive experience with fascia and bodywork techniques for animals, which has deepened my appreciation for supporting their comfort, mobility, and overall well-being. Pet care is currently one of my main priorities and something I truly enjoy. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to plan my days around the needs of the pets in my care. Whether that means morning walks, playtime, feeding routines, administering medications, or simply providing companionship, I enjoy being present and attentive throughout the day. I work independently and spend a lot of time outdoors, so I especially enjoy incorporating walks, hikes, and quality one-on-one time with dogs into my daily routine. I also appreciate the quieter companionship of cats and enjoy creating a calm, comfortable environment where they can feel safe and cared for while their families are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I take time to learn each pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite activities, sleeping habits, and any special instructions so they can feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own and strive to leave it exactly as I found it. I pay close attention to safety during walks, outings, and playtime, and I keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages for added peace of mind. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and sensitive, or a senior needing extra attention, I adapt my care to their individual personality and needs.
About: I’ve been an animal lover as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, and fish as family pets. As I got older, I’ve had pets of my own and became the go-to person to petsit for friends and family. I also have some experience caring for farm animals. I know leaving can be stressful for both pets and owners. I strive to make that change as seamless as possible so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are well cared for. I work remotely and have flexibility in my schedule, so I can be around a lot to give them love and help stick to their usual routine. My current schedule is very flexible. I can easily drop in midday for a walk while you’re at work or spend large chunks of time with your pets during a stay! Unfortunately I cannot host pets in my home at this time. In your house, I’ll follow your instructions for pet care as closely as possible to ensure they feel comfortable and have minimal change in routine.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,090 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Cleveland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Cleveland. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Cleveland after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cleveland. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
