About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have always loved caring for them! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from Yorkies to Great Danes, and I truly enjoy everything from long walks and playtime to cuddling up with your pup. I’ve also cared for a variety of other pets, including reptiles, birds, and rodents. My experience ranges from caring for young puppies as early as 6 months old to senior dogs with disabilities and pups with severe social anxiety who need extra patience, understanding, and one-on-one attention. Every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to provide the individualized care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My husband and I are both huge animal lovers, and we would be thrilled to give your pets the same love and attention we would give our own! 🐾 I work from home two days a week, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to fit pet care into my routine. I also go on walks every day and love spending time outside, so having a furry walking buddy is a perfect addition to my day! My husband and I love to travel, which makes it difficult for us to have pets of our own. Because of that, we truly enjoy every opportunity to spend time with animals and spoil them with plenty of love and attention. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, or just a cozy companion to hang out with, I’d be happy to make them part of my daily routine! I want every pet to feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re in my care. At a client’s home, I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including their feeding schedule, walks, medications, playtime, and any special instructions. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel connected to your pet while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away!

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.

I had a fantastic experience with Jackie. She was punctual and prompt, always arriving on time for our meet and greet. Her efficiency was impressive, and she was incredibly nice, making both me and my dog feel comfortable. My dog took to her right away, which speaks volumes about her ability to connect with pets. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for reliable pet care!

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! I'm a Cleveland-based pet sitter with over 3 years of experience caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and repeat clients. I've even traveled to New York to care for clients' pets, which reflects the level of trust I've built and my commitment to providing dependable, high-quality care. I've worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and energy levels, from playful puppies to senior dogs requiring extra patience and attention. I'm also comfortable following specific feeding schedules, administering specialized diets, and accommodating individual routines to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy while you're away. While dogs have always been my biggest passion, I love caring for cats just as much and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm, reassuring presence, I'll make sure they receive the same love and attention they would at home. My goal is simple: to provide safe, reliable care and give you complete peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! I am currently working full-time and am a student enrolled in CSU to pursuing my CCMA certification. I am available most Monday and Thursday evenings and weekends unless otherwise announced. I am happy to be flexible! I will only provide care in your home or another trusted family/friend's as I currently live in an apartment complex with strict pet rules. I am happy to take them for drives or walks around parks too! Whatever will make you and your furry family happiest.

About: My genuine passion for animals and my lifelong dream about having my own dogs finally came true when I welcomed my own pups into my family. I have firsthand experience with the daily care, attention and patience that pets need to thrive. My genuine passion for animals and my lifelong dream about having my own dogs finally came true when I welcomed my own pups into my family. Beyond caring for my own dogs, I volunteer with a local animal shelter for a “Dogs Day Out” program where I take shelter dogs on outside to provide socialization, exercise and enrichment. These experiences alone have strengthened my understanding of dogs with many personalities and needs, allowing me to provide compassionate, attentive, and reliable care for every pet I get to meet. :) I work in the emergency department, so my schedule varies, but my partner and I live together so generally when I am not home he is there, and vice versa. When I’m not at work, I will spend all my time with your pet, taking them on walks, to dog parks, to get pup cups, etc, whatever you as the owner allow or prefer! I have a fenced in yard at my home, so dogs can be off leash to exercise, use the potty, and play time. During their stay in my home, they are welcome to be free roaming, not in crates, unless owners would prefer crates.

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: **Serious Inquiries Only *** With over 10 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I have developed a deep understanding and passion for working with small dog breeds and puppies. Throughout my career, I’ve been dedicated to providing top-tier care for both puppies and adult small breeds, helping them thrive in loving, healthy environments. I have worked extensively with a variety of small dog breeds, including Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, Yorkies, Shih Tzus, and Dachshunds. My experience spans everything from basic pet care and feeding to behavior management, training, and health monitoring. I specialize in the unique needs of small dogs, including their dietary requirements, exercise routines, and socialization skills. My approach is centered around building trust and positive relationships with the pets in my care. With puppies, I focus on early socialization, potty training, and establishing consistent routines to set them up for a well-adjusted adulthood. With adult small dogs, I work on maintaining good health, managing behavioral issues, and fostering strong bonds between pet and owner. I’m particularly passionate about understanding the individual personalities of each dog, ensuring they receive personalized care that meets their specific needs. My extensive background in pet care has allowed me to not only enhance the lives of the dogs I care for but also provide valuable advice and support to their owners, helping them navigate the joys and challenges of dog ownership. I am dedicated to provide my full attention to your pup throughout their entire stay! If it’s boarding or just a fun day at doggy day camp I can ensure your pup will have a great time! I have a fenced in back yard , plenty of toys and activities to keep your pup busy! My home has central air conditioning for hot summer days . I also have a small male shitzu to keep your pup company during their stay .

About: My family has had cats since I was 13 years old and we’ve fostered and found homes for many strays. I adopted my dog when she was 8 weeks old, 8 years ago. I understand the deep love and concern all pet parents have for their babies because I see Juju as my child. I would love to help provide trustworthy and compassionate care for your pets! I also rely on Rover when I’m at work 3 days a week and I’d love to spend my days off helping other pet parents and animals feel safe and supported. I only work three days a week so I have a lot of flexibility. I’m off every other weekend so I have some weekend availability too. I’m happy to feed, walk, play with, cuddle, and care for your pet in any way that you need! I’m also comfortable with administering medication.

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.

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!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - East Cleveland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in East Cleveland on Rover is $24.61 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 2,380 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across East 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 East 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.

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 East Cleveland 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!

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.

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.

To find sitters in East Cleveland with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in East Cleveland. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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.

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.
