“Alexis was a great care taker for our dachshund over the weekend! She was very open and receptive to any specific requests we had, shared pictures and videos. Overall our dog appeared to enjoy the time with her and we would definitely reach out again the next time we are out of town.”
About: I have been a volunteer at Lake Humane Society for 2+ years, and I also worked on their adoption team for over a year. I have also been pet sitting for friends and family for many years now, and I also own cats and fish!! I am currently available for pet sitting Monday through Friday, and I can also manage some weekends as well, and if needed I can do some holidays! I have experience with dog crate training, experience with giving dogs and cats medication, and I am also able to walk dogs, let them outside in a fenced area, or put them on outdoor leads. I also have lots of experience feeding multiple animals at a time as well.
“Alyssa was Amazing! Communicated the entire time we were on our trip. Pictures from each drop in visit. Our dog absolutely loved her! Huge relief when traveling when we couldn’t bring our pup with us. Will for sure be reaching out to her again our next trip.”
“Charlotte was incredibly efficient, always arriving on time and following my instructions. Communication was a breeze; she kept me updated with photos and messages, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Most importantly, my dog absolutely loves her! He was happy and well cared for, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Angela was fantastic! She came over to meet us and our pets and exchange information prior to our weekend away. She followed our directions, spent quality time with our pets, gave lots of feedback (which is really important to us) and photos, and left the house in good condition. We will definitely be using her services again. Can't say enough good things about our experience!”
About: Hi my name is Yocheved, but a lot of people call me Yo, or Ava. I am an only parent to a wonderful, active middle schooler. We have a happy home full of love and laughter, and 2 kitties. After 14 magical years together, we lost our dog to old age, a couple years back. I miss the feel of having a dog around, but I know in my heart of hearts we are all a little older, and a little busier, and our home cannot house a new permanent four-legged resident. But I do not accept the lack of dogs in our lives! I said yes to dog sitting lately, and I have made so many new friends since. Hanging out with your dogs or cats when you're unable to be there- it's become a thing I look forward to in my home. I love walking the neighborhood or doing drop-ins to feed cats. Let me help you! I'm currently WFH part time, and tend to end my days on the early side, for parenting purposes. Because of this I'm pretty flexible and available throughout the week. I tend to all pets, like I would for my own. I cared for my dog through cancer, twice- so I'm pretty familiar with medicine, senior care, and all the extra effort needed for older or sick animlas. I love to walk, burn off energy, and snuggle. Happy to do light grooming (brushing), and send photos and videos throughout our time together!
“Amanda is so awesome, attentive, and sweet! She came for a meet and greet before watching our dog and she made sure she got to know him as well as learn everything I had to tell her about our dog and his routine. Her drop in visit was thorough, with regular updates and communicaton and a couple of pictures. We came back to a happy, calm dog on a busy weekend. We are grateful for Amanda and definitely recommend her!”
About: Hello! My name is Summer, your friendly outdoorsy pet sitter! 👋 A little bit about me: My family has fostered cats and dogs ever since I was a little girl! I had the privilege of caring for dogs and cats from all walks of life; from training puppies and kittens to end of life care for senior or injured animals. Our animals have always been the center of our world. 🤍 Since moving from my Indiana home, I have been taking care of my fellow neighbors furry friends for the past 5 years! I have experience with dogs and cats of any size and temperaments and LOVE to be outdoors. With my new work from home job, I’ve been looking to fill my mornings and evenings and would love to meet your little companions! I have two beloved cats of my own, Coco and Moss! Coco, my soul cat, was found as a feral kitten and now lives her best life lounging in the sun. Moss was born from a momma cat that we rescued 3 years ago and has been my little best friend ever since! I have a full time work from home job and will be available between 5:30 - 8:45 am and 6:45 - 8 pm Monday through Friday! I have a 30 minute lunch break daily and can stop by depending on distance. I am also open to weekends as well and can be more flexible with my time. I am a planner and will always know in advance when I will be out of town or gone for the weekend! Ensuring a safe and calming environment is my first priority when taking care of your pet. Building trust with a new human takes time and patience and is not a process I will rush. Since my services will take place in a clients home or in the neighborhood for dog walking, I am open to meet and greets so your beloved pet feels safe in my presence.
About: I have been dog-sitting/house-sitting since sophomore year of high school, and my customers always have high praise. I ensure your house will remain clean, and your pets happy. I am respectful to your rules for your home and pets, and love to spend time with them! I love nature and willing to take your dog on an adventure during our walk, and I love to run with dogs, so I can ensure a great workout for your pup. I’m very easy-going and super flexible with my time. I hope I can help you and your pets! I own two cats myself, and they're very social, thankfully though since they are cats my time is very flexible. I'm truly looking for something to fill in my time just like any service. I've house sat for all different types of pet situations, with training varying to a lot to none. I want your pet to enjoy my stay and not fear me, and I want to give you peace of mind of that while I'm there.
“Octavia saved us with a no-notice booking after one of our boys decided he would rather chase snowflakes instead of going "potty' before we had to leave for work lol. She was prompt with her response and was incredibly flexible. The boys also love her!”
“Kaley did a great job taking care of our cats. We had to leave town unexpectedly and she agreed to visit them even with a very last minute request. We also forgot to leave the keys, so she had to deal with out building security to get inside. The cats love her and enjoy being around her. We came back to two happy munchkins!”
About: Hi my name is aaziya and I have over 10 years of pet care experience and I am very flexible. Whether your fur baby is reactive, special needs, or you have specific instructions on how you want them cared for, I do it all! My schedule is very open due to the fact that I just left a pet grooming job where I didn’t feel very much comfortable and couldn’t fit into my day to day life Since I don’t have anything other than getting my son to and from daycare that needs my attention, your pet will have all of my undivided attention to care for all their needs! I also have a very large yard for them to either burn energy or just relax in the sun.
“Susan is amazing!!! She watched my cat for two weeks while we were away and it is wonderful to not worry about your pet. She always goes above and beyond.”
“India is amazing! Great communication and responsive to a last minute request. I needed their supplies refreshed while I was on a trip and she gave me peace of mind! My cats enjoyed her drop in visit and I would gladly use her again!”
About: I've been a dog lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for my own pets has been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. My puggle was truly the love of my life and taught me so much about patience, responsibility, and the unconditional love that dogs bring to our lives. I understand how much our pets mean to us because I've experienced that special bond firsthand. I currently have a quirky little Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who keeps me smiling every day. He's incredibly sweet, loves attention, and has his own unique personality. Caring for him has given me experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, grooming, and making sure he feels safe, happy, and loved. I've fostered cats briefly a couple times and truly respect their independence. I know every pet is different, and I enjoy getting to know each personality and routine. Whether your dog/cat loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply cuddling on the couch, I'll make sure they receive the same care, attention, and affection that I give my own. I currently work full time from home. I'm able to stop by during the day and can do more extended visits in the evening/weekends. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, preferences, and any special instructions so they can stay as comfortable as possible while you're away. I follow feeding schedules carefully, make sure they always have fresh water, provide plenty of exercise and playtime, and, of course, lots of love and attention. In a client's home, I respect both your home and your pet's routine, keeping their environment calm and familiar. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Marti took great care of my two kitties! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a drop in sitter. She was very communicative and helpful. I came home to two happy cat brothers😻”
About: Hi there! I’ve had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and I currently share my home with two of each. Whether it’s a tiny terrier, a gentle giant, or a quirky cat with a big personality, I’ve cared for animals of all shapes, sizes, and breeds. Animals have always gravitated toward me, and the feeling is mutual. I’m that person who greets the pets before the people — and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a cozy overnight stay, or a quick drop-in visit, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I offer all services on Rover and bring years of hands-on experience, a calm energy, and a deep respect for every animal’s unique needs. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I'm incredibly flexible with my availability for you and your pets. If it's a potty break or daily check ins for a week I have got you covered ☺️ Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I know how important it is to feel confident that your furry friend is in good hands, so I always take the time to get to know each animal's personality, needs, and routines. Whether I'm walking your dog, checking in on your cat, or having a sleepover with your pet at home, I aim to create a calm, positive environment where they feel secure and loved. I'm experienced with leash safety, reading animal body language, and giving meds if needed - and I'm always happy to provide updates and photos so you know how things are going. My goal is to make every visit feel like a mini vacation for your pet, and total peace of mind for you.
About: I have been pet sitting and dog walking since before I can remember. My family members were all allergic to animals so I was never able to have my own to love and care for. Pet sitting and dog walking was a way to get my animal “fix” without causing any allergic reactions in our household! I also ride horses and have owned and cared for many horses over the past ten years. Currently, I am taking a break from owning a horse but still get to ride occasionally! I do have references available if need be and would be happy to share to whomever is interested. I now have my own dog, Zuri, I rescued her in October 2020! She is the best girl ever and loves her life! I also have fostered for a few different organizations so am well versed in how each dog is different. I love all animals and would love any opportunity to give yours love when you aren’t available to do so! I work from home 4 days a week! So I am able to snuggle and play with the dogs all day! We do several walks a day & utilize enrichment toys. I live in an apartment, it’s big enough to host Zuri and one other dog comfortably. There are a few flights of stairs so would want to make sure your dog is comfortable with that.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cleveland Heights
Kimberley took great care of our pups and bunnies while we were out of town. She was always on time and sent thorough updates and pictures after every visit. Most importantly, our pups clearly loved her and, when we arrived home, we could tell they had been given lots of love and attention while we were gone. We will definitely use Kimberley again!
Charlotte was incredibly efficient, always arriving on time and following my instructions. Communication was a breeze; she kept me updated with photos and messages, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Most importantly, my dog absolutely loves her! He was happy and well cared for, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Megan helped us check on our 3 golden retrievers while we were away for a long weekend. She sent us photos every time she visited and we really liked how detailed she was on her daily reports. That really helped us feel less worried and relaxed during our trip. When we came back, our dogs were happy and healthy! We highly recommend her!!
Jimena is great! When I first met her for the meet and greet, I knew immediately that I could trust her to provide my 3 dogs and 1 cat with the best possible care over the next four days (while I was out of town). Over those 4 days, whenever she had a question, she did not hesitate to ask. She also provided me with updates, including pics, after every visit. When I arrived back, everything was very clean and orderly. No complaints whatsoever. Will definitely ask her back the next time I have to travel.
Brittany was fantastic! She was so thorough and sent great updates and photos for each visit - I was able to relax on our trip knowing that she had everything handled. This was our first trip away from our recently adopted dog, so I was a little nervous about how she would do, but she warmed up immediately to Brittany (which was impressive!) and I could tell by all the photos that she was relaxed and happy. Will absolutely be booking with Brittany again!
Glenn provided consistent care and attention for my cat and undertook the challenge of caring for my parrot although he was without prior bird experience. Both bird and cat were happy and healthy upon my return and Glenn communicated daily reports on them while I was away. I couldn’t be more pleased.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cleveland Heights choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
