Susana did a great job. It was a godsend that she was able to be flexible and adjust things last minute to help me. She was also very fast at responding and gave me great notes/photos at the check ins. Thank you!

Sydney and James were both so wonderful and took excellent care of our cats while we were out. They went above and beyond in their services and sent excellent pictures. We will certainly be using them again

About: i’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes for several years now and always treat them as my own. your dog will feel right at home at my house with lots of room for play time and also lots of cozy places to snuggle! I work full time but am available intermittently through the week and on weekends for daytime and overnight care. We enjoy taking walks and exploring the city but also napping and relaxing when needed! I have a semi fenced in yard that is pretty spacious. Dogs are always leashed when taken out for safety purposes. Cleanliness is a top priority along with making sure your dog is happy and healthy.

About: I love dogs and have been around them most of my life. Most recently I was lucky enough to have my yorkie for over 17 years. During your dogs stay with me I will treat them as if they are my own- getting lots of attention, walks, play time, and cuddles. I am committed to making sure your dog is happy, safe and comfortable during their time with me! I currently work from home the majority of the week. I am free on weekends so I can give your pup lots of time and attention! Your dog will be treated like a member of my family during their stay! They will get walks in my dog friendly neighborhood (along with a dog friendly park across the street), and lots of couch snuggles during TV binges. They will get lots of play time and attention!

About: I have always had a deep love for animals, especially dogs, and caring for them comes naturally to me. With years of hands-on experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable handling large breeds, small breeds, and everything in between, and I understand how their needs can vary depending on their size and stage of life. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, medications, and of course plenty of playtime and affection. Pet sitting isn’t just a job to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. I am currently in school but available almost everyday after 3:00 and in the summer available all day, everyday to take care of your pets! I have a large fenced in yard and big house with a big kennel if needed. I have a very friendly cat and cavalier King Charles spaniel however they can easily be separated from your pet if required!

About: I will make sure to give all of my attention and love towards your dogs and keep them good company. I am very responsible with taking care of dogs and will make sure they get the exercise they need if that is what I am asked to do. I will even just watch them while you are gone and keep them company. I will do anything they need and make sure they are okay. I can't wait to meet all of the wonderful furry friends I will get to meet. This is my full time job at the moment so I have a lot of availability to care for your dogs and cats and dedicate my time. I care for pets and others homes. I have lots of experience going and doing pet care and other people’s homes. I’m very respectful of others houses.

About: Hello! I recently moved to CLE for a full-time role post grad. With the travel requirements needed for work I don’t have time for my own pet so would love to be able to provide services for a range of different dogs and cats. I have ownership experience with both large dogs (labradors) and smaller dogs (miniature dachshunds) as well as cats. I grew up on a family farm so I have experience looking after a multitude of different types of animals as well. I am available to walk dogs or to come over and care for an animal when the owner is away as well. I promise to provide excellent care for your animal(s) and professional service too. Taking care of animals is truly a passion of mind and I would love to take care of yours! Currently working full-time so my availability is mostly on weekends. I work from home on Monday and Fridays so could potentially walk or care for animals during those two days as well. I live in an apartment and watch smaller animals at my place from time to time. Also able to go to clients’ homes and watch/walk animals at their place. I currently dog sit for two neighbors in my apartment building and would love to watch even more animals.

About: I have experience taking care of friends' dogs and my own dog, giving her oral medications and in food, walking them among others. I enjoy the experience a lot, to be able to meet new pets and their owners. I work from home, so I am available during the day to give your doggie attention, take your dog for a walk, feed and of course give your doggie a lot of love. I know very well what it's like to be away from your beloved doggie and how much you miss them when they're not by your side. That's why I assure you of frequent, daily updates on your doggie so you can have peace of mind knowing how they are and what they're doing each day. Being home all day allows me to guarantee that your doggie will always be accompanied and well cared for. They will be able to go outside to pee frequently, will have their meals on time, and will get their daily walk if they enjoy physical activity. I always keep a close eye on the dogs I'm caring for and always take them outside on a leash. If your dog takes any oral medication or vitamins, please feel free to bring them so I can administer them. Just send me the instructions in writing before the day you drop them off. If your dog has any favorite toys, treats, or long-lasting chews that they're used to having, it would be great if you brought them so they feel even happier. My priority is that your doggie feels comfortable and happy, and they will receive plenty of belly rubs and love.

I would definitely rebook Faith in a heartbeat! We took in a feral cat quite literally a few days before we left out of town and she was incredible. She was so gracious and offered to meet us in person prior to us leaving for the holiday so she knew where everything was and knew the lay of the land. She filled out the Rover cards, took pictures of our girl, and kept us posted along the way. I felt at ease knowing that Faith was going to be dropping in on our skittish new kitty.

About: From a young age, I have always had a pet. I love animals and look forward to taking care of your special pet/s :) I have experience with all ages and tailor my care depending on their individual needs. I am responsible, punctual, and detail-oriented. I am currently a first year law student at Cleveland State, so I have a lot of flexibility with my school schedule. Mondays I have class from 1:00-2:40 pm, Tuesdays & Thursdays from 10:00am-11:15am & 1:00-2:40 pm, and Wednesdays from 10:00-11:45am & 1:00-2:40pm. My boyfriend and I keep our apartment spotless so your dog/cat would be safe from any foods that may cause them harm! I also love going on walks or cuddling with your pet on the couch.

About: I’ve always had a dog, outside of a brief stint in college, and had care responsibilities from an early age. I have taken a dog CPR course. I currently own 2 large boxer mixes named Ben Franklin and Aretha Franklin! They are my buddies and I just live all dogs! Looking forward to helping care for yours! I work from home for myself and have an adaptable schedule, so I can generally work around pet care client needs. I’m open to working with clients to schedule at their convenience. In your home, your rules apply. I can keep pets company, feed them, let them out, have some play time , etc. If there’s anything specific you need, please request and I’ll try to accommodate reasonable requests.

Torrey was the best! We have to keep our kitties separated and she was very understanding of that and made us feel comfortable while on vacation. We got lots of photos (which we loved!) and she was very quick to respond/ communicate. This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely try to book Torrey the next time it is needed.

Genevieve was FABULOUS! I was in town for work and needed someone able to be with my service dog at the Rocket Arena for multiple hours in a row twice a day ... and on very short notice. She was everything I requested and much more. It was obvious that she loves dogs, and we even found quite a lot in common between us. I HIGHLY recommend Genevieve for people who want someone to care as much for their dog(s) as they do themselves. 5 stars; highly recommend!

Sydney did such an amazing job with my cat for the week! She sent so many pictures and my cat seemed very friendly and comfortable with her. She cleaned up any messes he made and sent pictures of his food and water every day, so I felt very confident that he was getting the best care possible. Will definitely be using Sydney again for future cat sitting needs!
