“Duke and I loved Leslie! She was super sweet and made me feel at ease since this was our first Rover experience. She was very professional and prepared. The cute pics of my baby while I was away reinforced to me that Duke was in good hands! He was instantly comfortable with her and made himself right at home! I will definitely recommend Leslie and will use her services again! ”
“Bingo loved his staycation with Charlene! She sent photo updates, communicated perfectly, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Bingo came home happy and relaxed. We have already booked with Charlene again!”
“Sharon is an absolutely amazingly good person and cares deeply about the pets in her care. Sharon updated us on Cedric throughout the day with videos and photos of him interacting with her and another pet. We felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her, we knew he was getting exceptional care with Sharon. It’s a great feeling to know you can go away and your pup will be in good hands at “Camp Sharon’s”! Thank you Sharon, we appreciate you.”
“Rufus had a great time staying at Britney‘s place. Britney was great at communicating about how Rufus was doing while we were gone and was flexible with a change in my pick up time. It was much appreciated and I highly recommend her!”
“Fantastic service. Beautiful country home with huge yard. Sent us photo updates 4 different times. Will use again any chance we get. Thanks again. Danny was so comfortable and super happy.”
About: I have grooming, training, & boarding experience. I’m experienced in administering medications; pills, eye drops, shots, etc. Animals are my peace so I’d love to give a peace of mind to others😊 I’m available full time, there are currently 6 dogs & 2 cats in my house & the pups get outside about 3-5 times a day depending on the weather. I also have a 3 year old whos with me 3 days out of the week. I have a fenced in yard, all of my pups & my sisters are crated when not supervised. I would prefer crates brought when staying with me just for safety reasons! & if I were to watch your pup in your hone they’d get the same love & care they receive from you😊
“Carlina was amazing with our Sugar while we went on vacation. She provided lots of pictures and videos which was very heart warming and appreciated. Her communication is the best. Would recommend over and over again.”
“my babies, Jaxon nine-year-old lab mix, Bree six year old Shepherd mix and Ziva three-year-old German Shepherd all stayed with Carrington for several days and they were so well treated!!! I received so many photos and videos and updates from Carrington. I felt very comfortable with my babies staying with her. I will be using Carrington for all of my boarding needs. xoxo”
“March 23-26 stay with Cristina, AGAIN had to head out of town and Cristina is our go to sitter. Luckily she and her family just returned from a family trip and she was able to accept our booking. Highly recommend Cristina. She gives her doggie’s lots of love and truly cares for them like they are her babies. Thank you Cristina!”
“Our pupper had a great stay!! Gouda was a great fur buddy to play with. Marnie and Dave sent frequent updates and pictures which was much appreciated. Their backyard is very large and fenced in. Truly a haven for dogs. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thanks guys!”
“Couldn’t be more grateful for Garrett and how well he took care of our girl, Sky! Garrett was so patient with us as this was our first time with Rover. He was considerate and informative from our initial messages to the meet and greet and then throughout the entire process. He provided multiple updates (including pictures!) on how Sky was doing each day, and even how much she was having fun with his dog, Dax. Garrett was even kind enough to stay near Sky during meal-time as she was a little nervous eating her meals alone. Garrett’s kindness, communication and the care he offered Sky was stellar. It makes me feel so comfortable knowing we have a great care option for Sky whenever needed—would definitely book again!”
“Shawna was great with Ollie. He can be a nervous dog when away from his mama, but Shawna reassured me with texts and pics/video that Ollie was doing ok! I really appreciated her willingness to help me out on pretty short notice.”
“Sarah kept my older chihuahua, Lola, who has become anxious at the kennel. I knew Lola was in good hands when Sarah said she could sleep in her bed at night. She sent pictures and updates everyday. Excellent experience. I highly recommend Sarah and Linus.”
“Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Ash!! We were so nervous leaving him for the first time and you immediately alleviated all of our fears! Ash felt right at home and you treated as your own family. Your constant updates and pictures were so thoughtful. Thank you so much!”
“Shayne was super amazing in taking care of my Golden pup! I can tell he had a great time with her from the pictures she sent me and she was also very communicative, keeping me updated with everything. I’ll totally book her again to look after my baby next time I leave town and absolutely recommend her to look after your fur babies!”
“There aren't enough stars for a rating! Fabienne was just fabulous in every way. I received many photos so I knew my 12 year old lab was in good hands. She wrapped him in a thunder shirt during a thunder storm, gave him lots of love, and even forgave him for getting into her garbage!”
“Samantha and Steve were amazing! We have two very active dogs, blue heeler and border collie lab mix, who needed a home for a day while we were visiting for the football game. Samantha took time to talk to us and learn more about our dogs prior to dropping them off and we immediately knew they were in good hands upon meeting them. Lovely home with nice fenced in yard and our dogs took to them right away. They took them on walks to park, played ball, sent pics of how happy they were and even let them snuggle with them on the couch and in bed, just genuinely loved our dogs! Home away from home for our pups! Wish we had a Samantha and Steve locally, super nice couple and amazing dog sitters!”

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. 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 838 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.
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.
