“WOW! Emily and Paul were absolutely exceptional! They met Charlie’s needs and even went above. Charlie was so happy when we picked him up compared to another dogsitter where he was traumatized when we picked him up. We were well informed throughout the three day stay and had great photos of him.”

“Karen took great care of our boy- very communicative and patient with his minor separation anxiety- if we find ourselves back in town we’ll be happy to work with her again!”

“As always Judy is amazing. Worried about leaving my pup for as long as I did but the constant updates and knowing how well my pup was doing gave me more ease and comfort. I highly recommend Judy”


“Cathy took in our 4 month old Teddy Bear puppy “Waffles”for 4 days. We were very happy with her care and she kept us updated with how he was doing. Would use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter. Thank you!”

“Laura is the definition of a perfect rover. I left my golden retriever mix with her for 2 weeks this summer and she took such unbelievable care of our Miso. She welcomed her into her family and home. She was reliable, provided cute photos, brought her to a lake on a family trip and even dropped her off at the end. She was perfect and I can’t wait to use her again. For my first rover experience, this was a dream come true. Thank you Laura and fam!!”


“Was a bit worried about how our newly rescued 9 year old pup would do being left overnight but Rebecah and David were awesome! Our little guy quickly relaxed and enjoyed ALL the comfort and care of home. Says so much about the calm and caring energy he experienced! We will definitely be back for even longer stays… highly recommend!”

“Robin is hands down the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! She cared for our Golden Retriever, Winston, for four days and kept me updated with plenty of photos, videos, and thoughtful messages throughout his stay. Winston is only a year old and still has plenty of puppy energy, so I especially appreciated all the walks, playtime, and engagement she provided. She was patient when he got a little testy and took her time introducing him to the other pups in her home so he could settle in comfortably. I also loved seeing her reinforce training in the videos she sent. It was clear she was putting real time and care into him, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in her hands. We will absolutely book with Robin again, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!”

“Erica is phenomenal! We’ve used her twice now and Campbell clearly loves her! She takes such great care of our pup and we’ll definitely use her again! Thanks Erica!”


About: I have worked with numerous animals since I was 5 years old. I have owned chickens, rabbits, horses, dogs, and cats my entire life. I am a 4-H leader where I teach children how to train dogs and I help them show and prepare their animals at fair. I also show my own animals at the fair. Additionally, I have pet sat for numerous family members over the years as well as friends. I will always be there for your pet and I will make sure they are well taken care of and loved just like they are my own. I am a teacher who is currently on summer break. So my schedule is pretty open during the summer and I have a lot of availability. During the school year, most of my weekends are free as well as when we have breaks. I am flexible and willing to make things work for you! I live on a little hobby farm with my husband. I have 3 dogs and 3 cats who are very friendly. I have everything needed in my home to take care of a dog including a kennel if needed as well as tie outs. We have a lake that is 5 minutes from our house and if your dog loves to swim, I would be happy to take them. I take my dogs all over in the summer and I would make sure your pet gets a lot of attention and exercise as well. Additionally, we have a huge barn and fenced in pasture as well as rabbit hutches in the barn and a chicken coop! Whatever animal you have they can be comfortable at my property. Additionally, if you feel better about your animal staying at home, I am happy to accommodate to that as well.
About: I've taken care of animals of all different species and sizes throughout my life, I've always found a deeper connection with animals, and the more I care for them, the more I see that. For Dogs, I can get along with most, although I am admittedly spooked by bigger or more aggressive dogs (Cane Corso's for reference). And as for cat's, I'm always willing to take carr of another feline friend, my closest animal companions in life have been cats! I can respect a cats boundaries very well. Notes: For dogs with Clicker training, I do own a clicker. I cannot allow other cats in my home, as one of my cats is not friendly with others. I'm typically up very early to feed my cat and spend whatever free time I have giving him attention and love while I relax. I am currently unemployed, so I can tend to pets around the clock! My yard is not fenced, I can keep a dog close if need be. I am more than willing to take pets on walks to the park, or outdoors in general. I can adapt to most any animals schedule pretty easily. My house is pretty large, so most animals will have plenty of space to roam and get comfy, and I can make accommodations for any special pet gear needed. List of tasks or care instructions would be highly appreciated, and would help me stick to a given schedule.
“Diane and Dale went above and beyond to accommodate our schedule and care for Oliver. He fit right in with their dog, Lexi, enjoyed the walks around the pond and was well-loved. I highly recommend them!”

“Julie took the BEST care of our little guy on our first trip away from him since we got him. She took many pictures and shared them with us and just treated him like one of her own pets. We appreciated seeing how much love he received while we were gone!”

“Lisa did such a great job with our baby Nilah! We have been working really hard with training but a high energy golden can be really challenging. We appreciate Lisa’s patience with Nilah. She also had other dogs to play with throughout the week. Lisa has an extremely friendly family too so we knew our pup was in the best hands.”

About: Since I was little I have always loved animals, I feel that I have a unique connection with them. From 10 years old. In Ecuador, I was taking care of dogs. The neighbors have trusted me for the attention I gave their pets, for playing with them, etc. But since I arrived in the United States I have not been able to continue with that hobby. I took care of the dogs of the owner of the house where he lived for 6 years, giving him all the love, patience and daily attention he needed. I don't have much real experience with food, walking and bathing. I am reliable, friendly and treat everyone like a family. I am available from Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday mornings until 10 a.m. and in the afternoon from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Sundays only in the mornings until 11 p.m. My first language is Spanish but I don't speak English very well or fluently, I know basic things but I understand most of them. I give food and water on time. I walk them, play a little and keep everything clean. I tell the owner how it goes with photos.
About: I’ve worked with variety of species, specializing with dogs! I have skills with grooming and training. I have 4 of my own dogs and do dog sports as well! I work from home so I have extra time to care for your pets and am able to move around my schedule. Saturdays are the only days I may not be able to take same day bookings! I understand crate and gate management and will make sure your animals are happy and healthy! All animals will be fed and cared for by owners guidelines. For boarding in my home, I will safely introduce my dogs and if needed they can be totally separated! Whatever works best for your pet!
“Boarding experience review) This is our first dog, and our first time using Rover, and Salena helped put ease to our mind! She sent pictures of our puppy and was really flexible to work with. Bale slept so good when he came home, and he looked like he had the best time! We will definitely be using her again! I highly recommend her to anyone!”

100% 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, we recommend 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 WI 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.
