“Once again, Ashlee’s care of Jack, our usually ‘invisible’ cat boy, brought him out waiting for her visits, with her care and attention. He has really connected with her!”

About: My first word was kitty. Not kidding! Since my very first word, animals of all kinds have always been a huge part of my life. I have either owned or cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, Guinea pigs, fish, birds, frogs, horses, goats, and…well, the list goes on. Not matter what four legged (or more or less legged!) friend you need care for, I’m your girl. I have experience caring for all ages (bottle-fed to seniors) all sizes, and many, many different needs. I am experienced in providing wound care and other medical needs, and I am comfortable with animals of all temperaments. My years of experience has taught one thing: ALL animals are unique, and each needs to be cared for individually. I look forward to learning the unique needs of your pet and caring for them accordingly! My work is freelance and gig based, so I often have large stretches of time open and my day to day routine is very flexible. I typically try to book Housesitting stays about a month in advance, but if I am available, I am happy to book last minute! Call it a cruel twist of fate, but my landlord doesn’t allow pets. So, I have TONS of love to share with yours! While I won’t be bringing any of your furry friends home with me, I am always willing to come to them and provide care in the space they are most familiar with and comfortable in. You pet has a routine, and it’s my goal to help make sure that routine is carried out whether you’re at work or out of the country. I prioritize your instructions while caring for your pet and their environment, and make sure to keep open communication with you so you can feel at ease while away.

About: I’ve owned dogs and cats since I was 4 years old. I love my lil dogs— the lil dogs with ginormous energy are my pawsitively fur-avorite pets. Along with that, my friends call me the cat whisperer. I bond with animals quickly and have a huge spot in my heart reserved for your fur babies. I currently only work twice a week with 5 hour shifts, so I have basically free availability. I have 4 dogs and 3 cats of my own, but they are very independent and the dogs have a large fence with a dog door. I cannot offer services in my own home due to a reactive Great Pyrenees and a cat that is a bully, but I will treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and care. I am passionate about leaving things better than I found them, so if there are any accidents I will likely clean up after your pet if there is time.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home where my parents bred Boxers, so caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels became second nature to me from a young age. Throughout my life, I’ve always had pets of my own, and I’m also the person my family turns to when they need someone they trust to care for their animals while they’re away. I currently have three English Springer Spaniels of my own, so I’m VERY familiar with energetic, playful, affectionate—and sometimes very needy!—dogs. 😂 I understand that some pets need much more than a quick potty break. Whether yours needs a good walk to burn off some energy, lots of playtime, extra cuddles and attention, or simply someone nearby to keep them company, I’m happy to meet them where they are. My experience goes beyond dogs, too. I’ve cared for cats and currently have a snake of my own, so I’m comfortable around a variety of animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and individual needs. I also have firsthand experience caring for pets who need a little extra attention. One of my own dogs is prone to recurring skin issues, so I’m very familiar with the additional care that can come along with that. I’m comfortable following established care instructions, including medicated baths and other routine at-home care, when provided by an owner or veterinarian. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, mobility, or anything else that seems unusual. If an emergency were ever to occur while your pet was in my care, I would never hesitate to contact you and seek appropriate veterinary care. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always come first. I know how stressful it can be to leave your animals with someone else, so I want to give you the same peace of mind I would want when leaving my own. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s normal routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and all their little quirks rather than treating every animal the same. I’m dependable, attentive to the little things, and happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Most importantly, I’ll care for your animals the way I would want someone to care for mine. ❤️🐾 My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to make pet care a priority! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m also happy to accommodate early mornings, later evenings, unusual work schedules, and last-minute needs whenever possible. Whether you need a consistent weekly routine or occasional care while you’re away, I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal schedule rather than making them adjust to mine. I know pets thrive on consistency, so I’ll always do my best to keep their feeding, walking, potty, playtime, and medication routines as close to normal as possible. 💕 My goal is to make your pet’s time with me feel as much like home as possible. I truly believe pets are happiest and most comfortable when their normal routines don’t have to change just because their owners are away. Tell me how things work at home, and I’ll do my best to keep it that way! If your pup sleeps in bed with you, they’re welcome to snuggle up with us. If they’re happiest sleeping in their crate, I’m more than happy to maintain that routine as well. Feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, bedtime, and other daily habits will all be tailored to your pet. We live in a quiet area away from busy roads and have a fully fenced yard with an additional guard along our iron fencing to help prevent even smaller dogs from slipping through. There are no children in our home, and our own animals are friendly, well-trained, and accustomed to being part of an active, pet-loving household. I’m also happy to arrange a meet & greet beforehand so everyone can get acquainted and we can make sure your pup feels comfortable. For dogs who love getting out and exploring, we frequently visit the Greenway for leashed walks, and I’m happy to provide other outings when appropriate for your individual dog and with your permission. I drive a roomy Kia Telluride, so I have plenty of space for comfortable transportation—and dog hair definitely doesn’t scare me! 😂 Playtime can get messy, and that’s perfectly okay! If your pup loves water, mud, or somehow manages to find every dirty spot possible, I’m happy to provide a bath upon request. I’m also comfortable following established care instructions for medicated baths when needed. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I’ll follow your instructions regarding leashes, crates, feeding, medications, interactions with other animals, and anything else specific to your pet. I want to know their quirks, likes, dislikes, house rules, and the little things that make them feel secure. Most importantly, I want you to be able to enjoy your time away without constantly wondering whether your pet is okay. I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can see that they’re safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. Just tell me how you care for them at home, and I’ll do everything I can to make my home feel like theirs. 🦮✨

About: I used to volunteer at a local animal shelter. I took a course on animal handling, how to decrease frustration, anxiety and stress (FAS) for animals in the shelter, body language, how emotional health impacts an animal’s physical health, etc. I have a certificate in keeping a shelter Fear Free. My family and friends have relied on me in the past to dogsit their fur-babies. I have a large extended family with pets of all kinds, from German Shepard’s, Labradors and Cocker Spaniels, to mixed breeds and Tabby cats. Five of them are shelter rescues and one chihuahua-dashscund. For all of the animals I have taken care of, I came to their home so that the animals remained comfortable. I love all of my fur-babies, and I’m thankful that my family trusts me enough to take care of them while they’re away on vacation. Important Note: If you’re wanting to do more “meet and greets” after the first one in order for your pet to get more comfortable around me, I will be charging the same price as it would be for a drop-in (about $15 depending on the pet care). Another Important Note: I can give oral medication by putting it into their food. I can not, however, give it to the pet straight. My work schedule varies every week. However, I usually work from either 8:30 AM or 10 AM to 4 or 5 PM. I wouldn’t mind discussing the details in-person. My living situation does not allow me to petsit in my own home, however, I am able to petsit in my clients’ homes. When it comes to animals, I am very responsible. I take my job as a pet-sitter very seriously. I am able to give them any medications if needed at certain days and times, walk them, feed them, etc.

“Joslynne was amazing with our pup Indy! He's a very anxious and nervous dog around strangers so we were worried when a friend who usually watches him was not able to the week we were leaving town for our wedding. Joslynne met Indy before we left for our wedding, and had several drop in visits with the Indy where he grew more and more comfortable with her. By the end they were even playing fetch! Joslynne was amazing to work with and I really appreciate her taking the time to understand our anxious Indy during the drop ins. We look forward to requesting her services for future drop in visits if she's available!”

About: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort. I’m very attentive to routines and will stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule to help reduce stress. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed by giving them lots of love, supervision, and a calm environment. I enjoy being outside, so walks and outdoor play are something I really enjoy doing with dogs.

I have worked and volunteered with animals for years. Shoot me a message and we can get to know each other! I work Monday through Friday 8am - 5pm and have free time on most Saturdays and Sunday's. During the week I could do check-ins at 6am or after 5:45 pm. I am available many weekends. Our family has loved many cats over the years, and our latest kitty required fluid injections every other day and medications and ear ointment. I am used to providing detailed care and lots of love and play too. I am very organized, and that has been useful when pet sitting.

Cierra has a really nice manner that is calming a reassuring to cats. Our skittish cat even came out one day when Cierra was there and let Cierra pet her! Also, a couple of very large branches fell across our driveway while we were away and they were completely blocking the driveway. Cierra moved the branches so that she could get through to care for our kitties! Talk about dedication!

Jackie was great to have take care of our dogs. She communicated well with us. She went above and beyond our expectations. She stayed with them longer than I had planned on for every visit. She made us a card with the pictures she took and even got the dogs extra treats. We also were pleasantly surprised to find she cleaned up after our dogs in the yard. I highly recommend her.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - East Cleveland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in East Cleveland is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $42 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 824 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across East Cleveland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
