“Kathryn is always fantastic with our fur babies… totally reliable, professional and caring. We don’t have to worry about anything when we’re not at home. She takes care of everything.”

“Emma was wonderful. Mikey was happy to see her and she took excellent care of him. He was happy and health when I returned. I greatly appreciated her attention to and care of Mikey. I will certainly hire her again.”
“Patty was great as always. I really appreciate that I can trust her with my babies. She sends great pictures and my skittish babies are even getting used to her instead of their usual stranger danger attitudes. I will always go to her first for my Rover needs.”

“Maria did a drop in visit with my pups and I felt good knowing they were in her care. She sent videos and photos and kept me posted about how they were doing. She even gave them fresh water. Would definitely book her again!”

“Mya was absolutely wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and she went above and beyond any expectations! She cared for my animals so well and kept me updated which I greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend.”

“Olivia did a great job providing cat care for our five furry children. She gave medication to three of them and spent extra time working to get know each one. We would definitely hire Olivia again and highly recommend her.”


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 have high availability and recommended all the time by word of mouth. Pets aren’t just pets. I treat my clients’ pets as if I’m caring for a family member. I don’t currently have a full time job so this will give me more flexibility in my schedule. I also don’t have my own pets, which means I have more time to care for other pets. When petsitting in the pet’s home, I make sure to ask lots of questions about the pet’s habits, food schedule, normal potty schedule, and home security questions. I want to make sure the pet is comfortable and the care is seamless for the pet and owner.

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life. I had my own dog for 16 years, from childhood through her senior years, so I understand the responsibility, patience, and consistency dogs need at every stage of life. I regularly walked her and taught her commands like sit, shake, and roll over. As she got older and developed health conditions, I continued caring for her with patience and attention to her changing needs. I’ve also volunteered as a dog walker at the humane society and used to go with my mom when I was younger, which helped me become comfortable around dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I’m dependable, caring, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind. I’m home from college for the summer and looking for a fun, active way to spend my weekdays doing something I genuinely enjoy. I only work a few nights a week, so I have a pretty flexible daytime schedule for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I’ve always loved being around dogs, so this feels like the perfect side job for me while I’m home. I enjoy getting outside, staying active, and spending time with animals, and I’d love to help give your pets some extra attention, exercise, and care during the day. When caring for pets, I always try to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. During walks I keep dogs closely leashed, pay attention to our surroundings, bring water and waste bags, and make sure not to walk too far especially in hot weather or with older dogs. For drop in visits I make sure pets have fresh food and water, get attention and play time, and that everything is clean and secure before I leave. I also know how important pets are to people, so I’d always keep owners updated and send pictures when I can.
“Melissa did a great job with watching my cats. She did everything that I asked her to do. She sent photos & messages to let me know how things were going with my cats. I will ask her to cat sit again in the future! Thank you Melissa 😊”

“Crystal was great with Murphy. She was on time, respectful of our training regimen and was a great help with burning off some of Murphy's puppy energy. We will definitely use her again.”

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 August 2026, there are 150 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.

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.
