“Maggie so enjoyed her visit with Christina! Maggie has been an indoor city girl in Florida her entire life. This was her first time having the run of a yard. Christina’s yard is huge with lots of trees and things to climb on/through. Her Boxer Bandit and Maggie became buddies right away. Christina was the perfect hostess. Maggie’s 3-day stay could not have been better. I highly recommend her and Maggie will definitely visit again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Thank you Connie for taking such good care of our Hurley!”
“Ben was great to give us updates on our dog Yuki as she stayed with him and his family over a weekend. She was well taken care of and it was great to have some peace of mind knowing Yuki was in good hands. I would certainly recommend Ben for anyone needing to have someone look after their pet!”
“Vanessa was absolutely wonderful with my Terk. She kept me posted with updates and pictures while I was away. I came home to a happy pup who had a blast with her pup as well. I will definitely be taking Vanessa as a sitter in the future. Not only was she great with Terk but so pleasant to communicate with.”
“Kharen looked after our sweet Dani while we took a night out of town. Dani LOVED Kharen and had a great time! She updated us with pictures while we were away too! We will definitely be contacting Kharen again next time we need a sitter!”

“I can see why Jessica has amazing reviews. We boarded our lil precious pup for a work trip and we got updates and pictures twice daily. Maple her golden doodle and her daughter were amazing with our lil Pup. The sweetest moment was when we picked her up her daughter was standing there with a lil card and toy for her new friend. I have the precious card on my refrigerator. It’s so nice to find good people to leave your pup with. We moved to area recently and we got lucky with finding Jessica and her family. We 100% recommend Jessica and her family to board your furry family member. Thank you:)”
“Garrett was fantastic with our dog, Bailey! He took her to the dog park, gave her a bath, and kept us updated with daily photos and videos. His communication was great, and it was clear he genuinely cared about Bailey. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely book with Garrett again! Highly recommend!!”
“Liz and Logan were such amazing pet sitters! We booked with them a couple weeks before our trip and quickly arranged a meet up to ensure everyone got along. I was thrilled to find a sitter nearby that would take our pup for 12 days with such short notice. Our dog was so well taken care of and we got updates the entire time. I love how they work from home and have a fenced in yard, it was nice to know they were spending lots of time together. They even allowed him on furniture and to sleep in bed with them. I would highly recommend them for any of your pet needs!”
“KaLynn was awesome! She kept sending me pictures of my Yorkie during her stay. I felt very happy and confident she was having a great time. KaLynn is very attentive and punctual. I definitely recommend her for this job.”
“Excellent! Judy took great care of Calli & made her feel right at home. I was updated with daily pictures & made to feel like my girl was in great hands while I was gone.”
“Matthew and Heidi did a wonderful job watching my girls! Cleopatra (dog) and Boudicca (cat) were well taken care of and they enjoyed their stay, particularly playing with Tenley. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. They were very responsive with communication and provided photos of both the girls. This really helped to reduce my stress about leaving them in a new environment. Thanks again M & H!”
“Karen is a wonderful sitter! Finn absolutely loved going. He has been there twice now and she is great about sending fun pictures and videos to know he was doing well. She is very responsive and overall had a great experience using her to watch Finn.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Cleveland is $51 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $51 and $51 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.

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.
95% 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, 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 , 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 .
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 SC 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.
