“Absolutely loved the communication from the moment of booking , drop off and while Ace was with Emily’s family all the way through pick up . They were great and ACE had an amazing time . Communication was great , pictures and videos were sent daily along with updates . We will be booking again without a doubt .”
“Such a great experience throughout the entire boarding. Gaby sent me updates, photos, and was quick to respond. She treated coco like her own which put me at ease. I’ve never felt so comfortable with anyone watching my dog until now. I’m usually told she won’t even eat which makes me so nervous, but she was eating, playing, and not at all shy like she has been every time anyone else has watched her. What’s important to me is the attention coco needs because she’s my shadow at home. Gaby said she went everywhere with her, sat with her, and slept with her; which is the same routine I’m used to and it’s hard to ask another person to give your dog so much of their time to cater to my diva lol Will highly recommend and truly believe she will make you feel at ease booking with her. (:”
“Alexandra was amazing with our two dogs, Abby and Bear, during their 6-night stay with her! She sent daily pictures and updates and stayed in communication with us the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She is incredibly friendly, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. Abby and Bear were well cared for and came home happy and relaxed. We will definitely be booking with Alexandra again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful pet sitter!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Cathy took such great care of my pups while I was away. They were reliable, attentive, and truly treated my dog like their own. I loved receiving updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. When I came home, my dogs were happy, well-fed, and clearly had a fun, loving experience. I would absolutely recommend Cathy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
“Wendy is super nice. Her house is super clean and smells good. Her dog Coco and my dog Fred are best friends now. Fred seemed happy and calm when I picked him up after a week stay. I recommend.”
“Courtney was god sent! With our late booking, I was super nervous about dropping our pup off with someone new (especially with his separation-anxiety). Courtney took him in with open arms, listened to all my worries and requests, and went above and beyond. She sent multiple pictures and videos, always woke up in the morning with an update, she truly made leaving our baby easier than I thought it could ever be. Thank you again and we will see you soon!”
“Lottie had a great time with Emily and her family. We got regular photos and updates. Such a friendly family and Lottie came home happy and exhausted from so much fun playing!”
“Norma and Edwin were great taking care of our pets. They were great with communication and provided multiple daily updates and photos. They were flexible with us and will for sure book them again when we need it.”
“THIS FAMILY IS AMAZING! She was so awesome and my baby was so happy being with them over the past weekend. I usually have so much anxiety dropping him but this time felt so different I was so calm and happy to know he was well taken cared of !”
“This was our first time using Rover. Mark was very helpful and responded to us very quickly! He kept us updated and sent several pictures of our 2 labs playing and running around. We will be using him again during our next trip!”
“I booked with Marcus twice so far while going out of town. He’s very attentive and communicative and we’ll continue to book with him to look after our pup every time. Highly recommend Marcus for any pet sitting needs!”
“First time for my dog Rocco to be watched by Bree and he loved it! She was very welcoming and asked all the right questions. She kept me updated with pictures and videos. I highly recommend her and will keep using her.”
“Tema was a great host. Very accepting of a last minute request and easy to work with. She sent many pictures and accommodated my being slightly late. Our dog Lucy had a great time and was returned to us very tired. Tema also was very informative about Lucy throughout her stay including how much she was eating and how she was settling in. Overall can definitely recommend Tema and will be booking with her again.”
“Dawn was great. Our dog is anxious and a little high maintenance. Dawn handled everything great. Usually when we pick our dog up you can tell he’s been stressed but he was very relaxed and happy. She sent pictures and videos and you could tell she cared for our dog well. We would definitely use her again in the future.”
“Andres and his wife took amazing care of my baby. They were incredibly friendly and attentive. He looked so happy with them. They also constantly updated me. They are just the sweetest I recommend them 10 times over. And I will definitely be using their services again.”
“She was a wonderful with my little princess Harley. Harley felt right at home. Angela sent photos and kept in contact with me in a timely manner. Will be using her again for sure!! 🥰”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!! Lauren and her family were amazing with our 5 month old puppy. They sent daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us see how much fun she was having. It was clear from every update that our puppy was happy, loved, and well cared for. She got plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and we could tell she felt right at home. We are so grateful for the care they provided and we’ve already scheduled them to watch our puppy again soon. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and attentive pet sitters!”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Cleveland is $30 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $47 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.
97% 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 TX 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.
