“Christ is so sweet and humble, I love him took multiple photos and was gentle with her. Khaleesi took an instant likely to him. Chris was friendly and follow my instructions. She had a great walk. I will definitely be contacting him again.”

Charisse B.

“Kate is super sweet. She sent us pictures of our dog, took her on some longer walks, and hung out/spent time giving her some pets and attention in our home. As this was our first time using Rover, Kate also came over to meet the dog before we left for our trip. We would absolutely recommend Kate to anyone looking for a dog walker/sitter for their pet and will definitely ask for Kate again when we need a sitter for our dog!”

About: Hello pet parent! 🐾 A bit about me - I had a family cat and dog for around 13 years total growing up. I helped feed, hydrate, walk, clean-up after, bathe, and play with both of them. I also assisted in taking them to the vet and giving them medication when necessary. Outside of my family pets, I have a summer’s worth of experience cat sitting for a family friend and a summer’s worth of experience volunteering for my hometown’s local humane society/animal shelter. Nowadays, the majority of my pet time is spent occasionally dog sitting for my brother and his wife. I’m comfortable with any size pet and am very active, so any pet energy-level works for me! I look forward to meeting you and your furry companions 😊 I am currently a full-time post-graduate student at the Cleveland Institute of Music. I have very flexible hours and I’m pretty available as of right now. I’m always happy to discuss how I can best accommodate your needs for pet care and pet sitting! I work best if clear instructions for pet care are provided before or upon arrival. I love all kinds of animals and I’m always gentle when meeting-and-greeting. If a pet has difficulty adjusting to new people, or general fears/anxieties, please let me know how I can best accommodate you and your pet’s needs.

“John is fantastic, trustworthy, and dependable. Looking forward to our future bookings”

About: I’ve helped take care of and train dogs of various sorts and sizes since I can walk along with my dad. I’ve gotten my love for animals as a whole from him and it’s the perfect therapy and job. Having many dogs, cats, birds, turtles, fish and pet crabs throughout my life has helped me to have an extra sense of care, love, and attention for all animals. I’m currently working part-time, so I’m available to play, train, and care for your lovable furry friend 7 days a week from 8am to 2pm and 9pm to 12am. I have a fenced front yard and backyard for your lovely pets to freely roam and play with me. I also have a 7 year old Shih Tzu and a 2 year old cat (both females) whom are very loving, calm, and ecstatic to meet a new friend. A crate is available upon request as well.

“We’ve had a great first week with Kai’Lee. She is very responsive and flexible. We look forward to continue having her take care of our dog. Thank you!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, raising and training my Yorkie, Remy, until his passing at 14, and my XL Bully, Zebo, for the past 10 years. Since joining Rover in 2021, I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities—young, senior, hyperactive, and socially reserved. I provide frequent walks, playtime, and even baths to ensure pups are happy, healthy, and cared for like family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a lifelong dog owner, I start my mornings with walks and playtime to ensure pups get their energy out. Throughout the day, I dedicate time to feeding, cuddling, and engaging with each dog based on their needs—whether that’s quiet companionship or active play. Evenings are for winding down with more walks and care, ensuring every pet feels loved and attended to as part of my family. In my home, I create a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel like part of the family. I provide frequent walks, designated playtime, and cozy spaces to relax. Pets receive plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the day, with routines tailored to their specific needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I ensure their routines remain consistent. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime and cuddles, I provide attentive care while keeping their environment clean, familiar, and stress-free. Whether in my home or theirs, pets are my priority, and I treat them as if they were my own.

About: I am excited to start my adventure of pet care in Cleveland Heights! I’m new to the area, having lived in the middle of nowhere up until mid March 2025, I’m excited to get to know the area around where I live now and meet new client’s! My entire life my passion has been animals, in one way or another! From a very young age I was fascinated by helping injured wildlife, into my teens I started volunteering for various animal rescue organizations, walked dogs locally for the neighbors and started my own rescue endeavor dealing with reptiles, amphibians and birds – as well as anything I could do if it involved animals and caring for them. I currently run my own pet care service business outside of Rover. However, enjoy using Rover to fill in my schedule and allow me to further help clients in need of professional, compassionate and experienced care for their pets! I have over 20 years of professional pet care experience. From working in kennels, veterinary clinics, farms, studying animal behavior, dog training, dog walking, pet sitting, working in and managing daycare and boarding facilities as well as being active in animal rescue work with a few organizations and personally. I currently dedicate a lot of my free time to working with a 501c3 non-profit reptile rescue located in South Euclid. I strive to provide the best possible care for my client’s pets – when they’re under my car e, I treat them as I’d expect my own pets to be treated. I have experience with aggressive dogs, reactive dogs, all breeds, sizes and life stages. I have medication administration experience as well as nutritional experience so even if your pup or cat needs something slightly outside of the “norm”, I’ve got you covered! I also have experience with many exotic animal species such as raccoons, skunks, mini pigs and large parrot species. I have full time availability for all services I offer. I enjoy taking care of animals as if they're my own, and in my downtime I care for my pets and any foster animals I have. I pay the utmost attention to all clients under my supervision to ensure their safety, health and happiness. I have experience with large groups - up to as many as 20 dogs - under my direct supervision and am capable of monitoring even the most chaotic situation that can arise

“Alisa was wonderful with my scared and timid pup, Pepper, who requires lots of patience when meeting new people. We look forward to continuing to work with Alisa.”

About: Hello, my name is Shari and I love taking care of pets! I have a lot of experience petsitting for both dogs, cats, rodents and reptiles. I grew up in a house with a lot of pets. Right now I help take care of my family's pets (they have one dog and two cats). Their previous dog, Max (sadly passed away three years ago) suffered from epilepsy and I've personally helped him calm down during his seizures. My friend, Dr. Rebecca Lazarus who is a veterinarian at Westpark Animal Hospital trusts me to watch her pets while she is out of town. She and her partner currently have five cats, four dogs, three pet rats, and a leopard gecko. Her pets require different medications and special foods which requires a lot of supervision and making sure everyone finishes their meals and takes their medicine. I am happy to provide a number of references if you would like! I would also prefer to schedule a meet-and-greet so we can talk more about any specialized needs required for your pet, and so that you and your pet can get to know me as well! I have a very flexible schedule, I do freelance illustration and other gig work so I am able to make my own schedule quite easily. I will never let a dog off their leash while going on walks, I will always make sure to feed them and provide fresh water daily. I will make sure they get plenty of play time and all the attention they deserve. I will ask questions about anything I’m unsure of. I will also never double book appointments, I only take one job at a time so I can give your pet all the attention they need.

“Kristen is great with my dogs!”

About: I treat every pet like family with tons of love, patience, and attention to detail! I bring great energy, I’m reliable, and I always make sure your pet feels safe, spoiled, and happy. Whether it’s cuddles, long walks, or just good vibes, I show up for your fur baby the same way I’d want someone to show up for mine 💕🐾 I love staying active and being outdoors, so walks and playtime naturally fit into my day. I also have a flexible schedule, which means I can give pets the attention and love they deserve whether that’s daily cuddles, feeding, or just being their chill companion 🐾💖 Pet care adds joy to my week, not stress! I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by keeping their routine as close to normal as possible from feeding times to playtime. I give them lots of love, attention, and gentle structure.

About: Hello!!! My name is Ella and I’ve been pet sitting for two years :) I have several dogs who I have the privilege of taking care of on a regular basis and would be honored to care for yours as well! I was raised with a dog who is 12 years old and who I have always cared for with great love and attention. I love to play and run around with dogs, talk to them, cuddle with them, and go for long walks. Your dog and me are about to become best friends! I’m happy to host small dogs in my apartment, but always happy to, and usually prefer to stay in your home with your dog :) I am a graduate student studying opera at the Cleveland institute of music and will very happily make up songs for your dog LOL! I am a graduate student at the Cleveland institute of music and within my schedule have breaks and long blocks of time where I can go to hangout with, check in on, walk, and feed pets :) I’m almost always available to spend the night and take care of them in the morning before setting off for my day. The longest I would need to leave a dog alone would be 5-6 at most, but that would be rare. Most often, it would be 3-4 hours or less :) I always appreciate when pet parents create a list for me of things I need to know so I can continue to reference it throughout my time caring for their pet until I get to know the dog super well! I am careful to keep dangerous or toxic things off floors and out of reach, I ensure that small dogs have easy access to higher couches or beds (as long as pet parents allow this), I clean and refill their water bowl every morning and wash their food bowls. I will give your dog lots of love and cuddles and pets and attention and time outside and exercise and plenty of treats!

About: I have pet-sat and dog walked for neighbors and friends since I was 12, and I’m looking to go pro! I’ve watched all ages and sizes of both dogs and cats, as well as the occasional fish and Guinea pig. I’m also comfortable with e-collar and off-leash pets, provided they’re well-trained! I’m currently looking to work part-time this summer, but otherwise am free at all times of day for walks, checkins, or stays. I will be heading back to college in the fall, but I’m running with the dogs all summer. I’ll always try to follow your pet’s usual routine for their day with as much love and fun as possible to ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable with me.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats from puppies/kittens to seniors and feel I feel more then capable of watching and taking care of your animals I have two cat with pretty particular diets so keeping up with them has put me in a great routine which I can provide to your animals I would take care of mine how I take care of yours. What matters most is how you want your animals to be taken care of
