“Melody is a gem! I was very pleased with the updates and photos provided during our trip and felt so relieved to know my furbabies were in good hands. Will definitely use her services again when we go out of town!”
“Saundra was very quick to respond to my very last minute request and it was greatly appreciated. She was thorough and left us observations on what she saw about Ruby every day, which made me feel good about her trustworthiness. She also was nice enough to come over to get the key from us before our vacation and drop it off afterwards. Recommend!”
About: My first word was kitty. Not kidding! Since my very first word, animals of all kinds have always been a huge part of my life. I have either owned or cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, Guinea pigs, fish, birds, frogs, horses, goats, and…well, the list goes on. Not matter what four legged (or more or less legged!) friend you need care for, I’m your girl. I have experience caring for all ages (bottle-fed to seniors) all sizes, and many, many different needs. I am experienced in providing wound care and other medical needs, and I am comfortable with animals of all temperaments. My years of experience has taught one thing: ALL animals are unique, and each needs to be cared for individually. I look forward to learning the unique needs of your pet and caring for them accordingly! My work is freelance and gig based, so I often have large stretches of time open and my day to day routine is very flexible. I typically try to book Housesitting stays about a month in advance, but if I am available, I am happy to book last minute! Call it a cruel twist of fate, but my landlord doesn’t allow pets. So, I have TONS of love to share with yours! While I won’t be bringing any of your furry friends home with me, I am always willing to come to them and provide care in the space they are most familiar with and comfortable in. You pet has a routine, and it’s my goal to help make sure that routine is carried out whether you’re at work or out of the country. I prioritize your instructions while caring for your pet and their environment, and make sure to keep open communication with you so you can feel at ease while away.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals since age 5, from fish to horses, and have officially 7 years of trusted experience caring for family pets. As a teacher on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for drop-ins, walks, and quality time with your pets until school starts. As a cat mom of three, I provide a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where pets feel comfortable, cared for, and secure while you’re away.
“Breana was amazing! Very responsive. She kept in touch the whole time and sent pictures. With Aiden’s stress about meeting new people I was worried he would be hesitant to warm up to her but he did great. She has a caring patient way that helped ease him into it. We will definitely have her back again.”
“If I could give 6 stars I would! Lilliana treated my cat as if she was her own. She sent me updates on my cat daily which included amazing quality photos and videos. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Was so thorough and such a great communicator!! Adriana updated me with every drop by with simple and effective communication so that I felt completely confident she was caring for our pets! I appreciated her punctuality stopping by right when she said she would each day! We were very impressed, thank you!!”
“Carolyn was wonderful. She kept us updated constantly over what she and Harper were doing. She sent pictures, etc. I'm so thankful that we were able to schedule her last minute and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Cierra has sat for us a couple of time now and we are very happy with her service. Our pets are always happy when we come home and we can tell she gives them lots of love. She is very friendly, responsive and professional. We look forward to working with her again in the future.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Some of our favorite family memories are walking our dog, Duke, on the trails with the kids. For several years, we also worked closely with a neighbor who trained dogs. Whenever she traveled, we cared for the dogs she had in training, giving them consistent structure, attention, and lots of affection. After recently losing Duke to cancer, I’ve decided to share the love I have for him with other dogs rather than trying to replace him. I understand how much pets mean to their families, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I also regularly care for my daughter’s cat (and kitten!), and they’re always a little spoiled when they head home. I truly love animals and enjoy providing them with a safe, loving, and attentive environment. I work during the day but maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to offer morning, mid-day, and evening visits and walks. I am available on weekdays and most weekends for daily drop-in visits and dog walking services. I strive to accommodate clients’ schedules whenever possible to ensure consistent and reliable care for their pets. For daily visits, I provide attentive, reliable care tailored to your pet’s routine and needs. This includes dog walking for exercise and enrichment, as well as dedicated time for companionship and play. I engage pets with their favorite toys and activities to make them comfortable. I also ensure they are properly fed, have fresh water, and that all of their daily care requirements are met before I leave.
About: I’ve owned pets since I was born, even now I own 2 rescue cats, 2 golden retrievers, chickens, ducks, too many tanks and fish to count and often many rescue animals. I’m the girl that stops my car and moves snakes, alligator snapping turtles and all manner of creatures from the road. I’m not scared of any pets, or animals. I love to meet new furry friends and often am told I have “a way” with animals. My nick name as a child was Snow White. One day we hope to own a farm. I graduated college as an EMT, so I have wound care experience and also am trained in natural medicine as well. I’m the mom of 3 and have the privilege of being a stay at home mom of humans and animals. I’m free most of the time to help care for those who need help! I often dog sit at my home with my family as supportive help for playing with and caring for those in our care. My kids adore walking, playing and loving on any pets. I and (if desired) my kids can easily come to care for your loved ones at your home as well. We cater to preferences and love animals of all kinds! Furry guests in our home usually sleep on a kid and their bed all night unless other preferred requests like a kennel if you don’t want them spoiled.
About: I have owned pets my whole life. I have owned cats and small dogs and even big dogs including Belgian Malinois in my lifetime. I will give your dogs and cats the best love and care while watching them. I am a stay at home dog mom so I have plenty of time to care for other peoples fur babies and give them the best care and love. If your pet stays in my home they will get lots of walks and lots of play time. I have a nice neighborhood for walking.
About: I've always had a connection with animals. I know how to give medications as needed. I've always been asked to pet sit since I was 10. I used to own my pet sitting business but life happened and COVID happened so I had to go back to work full-time. I have been wanting to pick back up pet sitting because it made me happy. I, now, do side gigs and am free most of the time. I do have my own animals so I'd like to be able to have some time with them if I stay at your place. I will follow whatever instructions you leave me. Plus, help them feel loved while you're away. There will be no worry because they will be in good care.

Cierra has a really nice manner that is calming a reassuring to cats. Our skittish cat even came out one day when Cierra was there and let Cierra pet her! Also, a couple of very large branches fell across our driveway while we were away and they were completely blocking the driveway. Cierra moved the branches so that she could get through to care for our kitties! Talk about dedication!
Jackie was great to have take care of our dogs. She communicated well with us. She went above and beyond our expectations. She stayed with them longer than I had planned on for every visit. She made us a card with the pictures she took and even got the dogs extra treats. We also were pleasantly surprised to find she cleaned up after our dogs in the yard. I highly recommend her.
Karissa was amazing! We got our first snow storm in our new house while out of town and she could not get her car out of the driveway, but she still managed to get a ride just so she could come check in on our pups for their drop in visit. We are so thankful!
I never used rover before this trip and it was a great experience! I’m so happy to have found Ashlee to look after my baby! She was great at communicating, sent me awesome pictures, was great at reading my boys personality in giving him some space to warm up to her. She was willing to clean up his little puke mess and told me about it right away. I would absolutely recommend Ashlee for your pet sitting needs and look forward to seeing if she is available to look after my kitty on the next trip I take.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 842 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cleveland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cleveland stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cleveland. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
