“Sherry did an amazing job taking care of my beagle Scout while I was out of town for a few days. Scout is not always an easy dog to care for due to his separation anxiety and I felt very comfortable with Sherry being with him. She sent text and photo updates and took Scout out for activities such as the dog park to help him use all that energy he has. I would use Sherry again on the future for sure!”
“Sarah was so helpful. She followed our dogs schedule, dealt with an unexpected house issue (fire alarm beeping), and cleaned up before she left. It was so nice to come home to a well cared for pup and clean house!”
“Abby was able to fill in for us at the last second. She is kind, sweet and treats your home as it’s your own! Our dog Wrigley warmed up to her very quickly. Abby sent updates throughout the night as well! We highly recommend Abby for all of your needs!”
“Ally is the best ! From the time she arrived our pup loved her! Ally took her on walks, sent photos and video and the communication was perfect! When my dog is calm and relaxed, we know she had a fantastic day. Would highly recommend using Ally!”
“Katie stayed with our 2 boys without a lot of notice, everything went very smoothly. Our big guy had been having a lot of tummy/health issues recently and she was really good about adjusting diet to try to get him to eat some. Would definitely recommend her for your pets!”
About: I have house sat with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds and horses in the past. I look forward to meeting your pet and hopefully exceeding your expectations of service. I enjoy meeting new furry friends. I work full time. My afternoons and evenings are open for pet care jobs. With advance notice, other schedule needs can be discussed and hopefully accommodated. A dog walking visit would involve checking on the pet, providing water or food if requested and making sure the pet gets a bit of attention and care during the walk session to maintain a good experience for your pet. I usually talk a bit and encourage good behavior and cooperation. Patience and not rushing the interaction is important. A brief walk would be around 15 minutes.
“Took great care of my cat (Coco) and turtle (Myrtle). Even went to extra efforts to make sure Coco got her meds in a timely manner. I'll be hiring Nathan again in the near future!”
“Maddy is amazing! She’s so good with our 3 girls. She left the house spotless and perfect. We will definitely request her again soon! Communication is perfect! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Peyton did a great job with my pups. One of my dogs is timid and she seemed to have gained his trust and done well with them. She’s also great at communicating and providing updates when needed.”
“Great communication! ReAna took excellent care of my cat and my place and sent pictures each visit. I really appreciate the check-ins. Would definitely recommend ReAna to anyone as a cat sitter!”
About: Hi! I’m 20yrs old from Akron, OH and I’ve had pets all my life, and grew up on a farm with plenty of em running around. Whether it’s dogs, cats, fish, or rodents. I’m happy to help with it all <33 I currently work full time. My schedule varies, but I do only work mornings, so I’m fully free anytime after 12PM to 3PM depending on the day. I currently only have a dog at home, she’s my baby. I have a scheduled routine set for her. I have lived in homes with cats, and in the past I’ve had rats. My household has kept a calm playful energy.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. Over the past 15 years I've become quite fond of special needs and rescue pups. I have 3 awesome dogs and a cat that have chosen us to be there family. I know how terrifying it can be to leave your fur babies with a sitter but I can promise they will be happy and comfortable with me. So if you're like my family and need someone you can trust with your pets we are here to help. We do have 3 kiddos that love the animals too. We are all very pet friendly and we all work together to take care of our fur friends and make sure they are happy and feel loved all the time!
“Our pets absolutely adore Cassie! She is the absolute best with any animals she’s ever with! She excels in folllwoing instructions, taking cute pictures of the pets, and giving them the best cuddles! She’s been watching our pets for the last few years now, and we always know our house/pets will be in good order when she’s here. We will be using her plenty more times in the future, and are so thankful to have her!”
About: I’ve basically been surrounded by dogs my entire life, so at this point being around them feels less like work and more like a lifestyle choice I never really got to vote on. I’ve had dogs all my life, and somewhere along the way I became the person people trust when they need a dog sitter. Whether it’s for a weekend, a vacation, or just a long day away, I’m used to stepping in and making sure dogs are safe, cared for, and probably a little spoiled. I also have hands-on experience working in a kennel, which taught me a lot about dog behavior, routines, and the very impressive range of chaos one animal can create before 8 a.m. Working in that environment helped me get comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I learned how to handle nervous dogs, high-energy dogs, stubborn dogs, and the occasional drama queen who acts like going outside in light rain is a personal attack. It also taught me the importance of staying calm, being observant, and keeping a good routine. Because I’ve always had dogs and regularly dog sit, caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I know that every dog is different. Some want nonstop play and attention, and some just want a cozy spot to nap and someone nearby who understands that they are, in fact, royalty. Overall, dog sitting is something I genuinely enjoy. I love getting to know each dog’s personality, quirks, and little habits. Spending time with dogs never really feels like a chore to me. It’s fun, rewarding, and usually comes with a lot of tail wagging, a little bit of slobber, and at least one moment where I seriously question who is in charge. This is my full time job, so I have plenty of time and attention to give your baby the best care they could possible receive! I have one friendly dog that loves to keep others company. He's been known to snuggle smaller dogs in their beds! I offer tons of park trips and outdoor time while also providing mental enrichment for those lazy pups.
About: I've had dogs all my life and I currently have one cat and 11 guinea pigs. I take care of my moms dogs all the time. I'm free all day. I'm an independent contractor so I have all the free time every day all day. I can come by anytime of the day. I will take the utmost care of your pet and will do everything I can to make them feel safe. I love being around animals.
“Anika was wonderful! She provided great care for our dogs while we were away. Making sure to keep us updated right away. They clearly enjoyed their time with her and received lots of attention and love. She went above and beyond to help when we needed it, and we would gladly book with her again. Highly recommended!”

Kim took great care of our cats and our house as well! She dealt with a complicated feeding schedule and kept things running smoothly at the house. She provided updates every day and pictures at several points, which gave us confidence and assurance while we traveled. When we arrived home, the cats were relaxed, well fed and their demeanor was as if we never left. Thanks again to Kim and we would absolutely recommend her for taking care of your pets and keeping an eye on your home.
Naomi was absolutely amazing with Mason! We used her over the holiday weekend, and she exceeded all of our expectations. Her communication was excellent throughout our time away, the house was spotless when we returned, and it was clear that Mason was well loved and cared for the entire time. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us complete peace of mind. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience, and I would happily book Naomi again and recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.

The average cost of House Sitting in Copley is $64 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $57 and $79 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Copley walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Copley maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Copley choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
