“Lauren is a great communicator. I always love the pictures she sends and the thoughtful check-ins she writes. She is always easy to work with and I really appreciate her!!”
“Kimberly was fantastic! She took great care of our two cats and made sure they had everything they needed. We also had a power outage while we were gone and Kimberly was able to make it a stress free experience regardless!”
“Anya is a God send. I work 2nd shift and really need someone to give my Blue that 2nd walk of the day. She is caring and thoughtful and very much appreciated by us both!!!”
“Chris did a wonderful job with Sadie - you can tell that he truly enjoys what he does & has a special way with pets. He met with us prior to his first visit to chat through expectations and to make sure we all felt comfortable. He took lots of great pictures and left a really thorough update following his visit. We will absolutely rebook with him!!”
About: I have owned dogs and cats for 27 years and have learned that each pet is unique and deserving of great love and care. I've trained a puppy, rescued a young dog, given dogs and cats medicine, taken care of an ailing senior animal, gone on long walks and given plenty of belly rubs. I recently left my full-time job to focus on freelancing. This gives me flexibility and lots of time to care for pets. I would like to establish long-term relationships with pets and their owners. If I'm checking in on your pet, I will respect your home as if it were my own. I'll follow your care instructions to the letter, and make sure your pet feels safe and happy. For walks, I'll provide the utmost care to ensure your pet is safe while getting the amount of exercise and outdoor activity they need.
“Gina was great! I needed a last minute sitter for a family emergency and she was able to accommodate. Brynlee loved her and she sent the most adorable pictures! I would definitely use her 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!”
“Kacey took excellent care of my two cats when I was gone and went above and beyond what I would expect from a sitter. I would definitely hire again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring cat sitter.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Alexis put us totally at ease leaving our cat in her care. Alexis was kind enough to stop by a few days before to meet us and our cat. Our skittish former-street cat took to her immediately, curled up with her, and Alexis was great at not only feeding her, but providing companionship a lnd many pets/scratches. She sent great Rover Cards and sweet photos. I would 100% use her again!!”
“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!”
About: I am a huge animal lover; I’ve had pets my whole life and know how much a routine matters to them, especially during a stressful time apart from their family. I’ve cared for a diabetic dog, giving insulin shots three times a day for years, and also babysat a diabetic cat — so I’m comfortable with medication schedules and special-needs care. I’m an active person who treats every fur baby like they are my best friend because that’s what they deserve! I have a flexible schedule and work from home Mondays and Fridays, so those days are perfect for midday walks or potty breaks — I can easily fit your pup into my schedule without rushing. On weekends, I’m open to house sitting or home visits, giving your pet consistent, attentive care while you’re away. I don’t board pets at my own home, so all care happens at your house, keeping your pet in their familiar, comfortable environment. During home visits or house sits, I follow your routines closely for feeding, walks, and medication, and I’m experienced with special and elder pet needs. I treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.
“Erin was great! She was so good with the cats and very thoughtful. She was also very responsive with any questions or new instructions. We felt at ease leaving the cats and our home for her to take care of while we were away. Thank you Erin!”
About: I’m a social worker, a mom to 2 pit bulls, 1 senior cat, and 1 human toddler. I grew up on a farm and I am a lifelong animal lover. Between the various needs of my creatures at home, and my experience over the last 20 years, I’m well equipped to take care of your babies. I have somewhat flexible availability during the week, and even more so on the weekends. I work from home some days of the week and can pop out as needed. I am attentive to your instructions for care and walk in with eyes wide open. If something seems off, I’ll let you know right away. I’m also happy to send cute pics to reassure you that your babies are doing great :)
About: I've owned pets since I was a toddler. I'm currently a cat, dog, and bearded dragon owner. I’m an animal lover! I specialize in caring for rescues and abused animals. I also walk and board dogs using the Wag app. I'm a self-employed single parent and entrepreneur. I create my own schedule, so I'm very flexible. I'm available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding your pet/s. I live in a huge single family home with plenty of space. I live close a metro park, so that is where I mostly walk my pet clients. I'm a local handy woman, but prefer caring for animals from the comfort of my home. I have a huge single family home with hardwood floors and also own a few crates to keep multiple boarders separated and safe if necessary. I’m currently available for full-time boardings, sittings, drop-ins, and walks. Taking care of animals and pets brings me great joy and I’m happy to be of service. I have a huge single family home and two fur babies to keep your pet company. I can easily crate your pet when necessary. Pets are supervised 24 hours a day.
“This is my first time using the app and Kay made me feel so comfortable and has done an amazing job looking after Louie and really tended to any special needs he had.”
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.
About: I'm just getting started taking care of pets professionally, but I've been looking after my friends and family's dogs since I was a kid. Looking forward to getting to know you and your four legged friends! I'm currently in grad school at the UofM, so my schedule is mostly dependent on when I have class. For the most part, I am available both weekdays and weekends. I am looking forward to visiting your pets in your home and treating that space with the respect it deserves! If you have any questions about my pet-sitring philosophy, don't hesitate to ask!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Cleveland
So fantastic to have Erin able to provide TWICE DAILY insulin medication and playful care of our older diabetic cat Midnight. All the cute photo updates kept us connected to our beloved kitty. We also really appreciated Erin's close attention to learning about Midnight's special needs in advance. Thanks again to Erin!!!
Kimberly is a dog persons dog person. She is conscientious and caring, her photography of my dogs is among the best I've ever experienced. Kimberly has a great sense of humor and truly loves dogs. I know that I will be booking her again in the future because she made me completely comfortable that my fur babies were in the care of someone that loves them as much as I do. I can unequivocally recommend Kimberly as a dog care professional.
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!
Kate did a wonderful job taking care of our young cat, Ruby, while we were away on vacation. She communicated clearly throughout our trip, including letting us know if her arrival times needed to shift. She quickly won Ruby over with plenty of playtime, snuggles, and attention, which gave us real peace of mind. She also went above and beyond to water our plants during the heat wave which we really appreciated. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat. We would happily recommend Kate to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful pet sitter!
Lindsay is the best! I can tell my kitties loved her, because they usually make themselves pretty scarce when they have pet sitters, but Lindsay has tons of photos of them. She also went pretty far out of her way to make a visit happen when an unexpected neighborhood festival made my home pretty tough to get to. Lindsay will really go the extra mile for furbabies!
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!!

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 July 2026, there are 2,461 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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.
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.
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.
