Top rated Garfield Heights house sitters

“Basil was great! She is very accommodating and took great care of our two 15 year old Havanese. This included cleaning up after them and she did this willingly. I would highly recommend her,”


“This is our second time having Paige watch our boys and as per usual, I did not have to ever think twice or worry about a thing. The four leggeds were happy, the house was well taken care of and I was always made aware of what was going on at home. Paige was especially attentive of my dog during the heavy thunderstorms that happened while we were gone and I was very appreciative of that! I will 100% use Paige again - highly, highly recommend!”

“Mont’e was absolutely amazing! He provided excellent care for my cat and dog while house sitting. I was pretty nervous to leave town and Mont’e was super kind and professional. He updated me regularly, took my dog on walks, and even took her to his family’s Christmas Eve celebration (after asking of course) because I was worried about her having separation anxiety! Mont’e treated my pets as if they were his own and when I came back they were both super calm and relaxed because of the great care provided. Mont’e was also super respectful of my home and left it very neat and tidy! Highly recommend Mont’e for all pet sitting needs, I’ll definitely be asking him to come back!”


“Aspen is magnificent, takes incredible care of our animals, extremely great with communication, and is an absolute pleasure to have when we are away!”

“Christian and Holly were wonderful while my wife and I were out of the country. They earned the trust of our skittish doggo Stevie, provided daily updates, and were quick to respond as needed. Christina also filled/in and checked-in on the girls after our flight was cancelled and we had to arrive later.”


“Angie was AMAZING with my dogs the week that she dog sat for them in my home. She sent regular updates and photos, asked thoughtful questions, and was kind and engaged every step of the way. She handled my older dog’s “special needs” like a champion and helped my nervous golden have a ton of fun. She left our home in better shape than it was when we left. I even received feedback from my neighbor about how great and sweet Angie was. I am so grateful for her and will absolutely be using her for our future pup care needs!”

“Alex was great. We found out last minute we needed a dog sitter and he was able to fit us in. In addition, our hot water heater went out the day before he was due to house/dog sit. Unfortunately, we weren't able to get a plumber to fix it before we left. When I told him, I was afraid he might cancel understandably. But, he just rolled with it. He was so ok with it that it totally relieved my anxiety about it. The dogs loved him, the house looked great when returned and I am so grateful he was there.”


“Rafi loved Alle, and for good reason! He was spoiled rotten with love, daily hikes, playdates and an endless amount of love! Alle stayed in our house and was communicative, responsible, and even left both Rafi and us beautiful gifts (hint, she is an artists in her spare time!). We cannot recommend Alle highly enough.”


“We would absolutely recommend having Shari care for any of your pets while you are away. We went overseas for 15 days and hired Shari to stay at our house to care for our 4 cats and 2 huskies. She was amazing. The dogs had a ton of walks, all animals were well taken care of. Shari was also an excellent house sitter. I will absolutely be reaching out to Shari again for our future pet sitting needs. Thank you so much Shari!!”


“Octavia did drop-in/housesitting visits with my pup for two long weekend trips and I was so happy with her! She sent great updates and lots of pics :) She spent a lot of time with our dog including plenty of walks and cuddles. Octavia was our regular dog-walker for a year before our schedules changed and we were so happy to have her back for two long weekends. Highly recommend for walks and housesitting!”


About: Growing up, we had all sorts of uncommon and common pets. I had everything from dogs and cats to bearded dragons and parakeets and mice. I've cared for saltwater fish, ferrets, four dogs, five cats, well over 20 reptiles, parrots of different kinds, and more! I honestly couldn't list everything I've owned, or worked with for my job. I started working at various pet stores when I was 16, and have worked at exotic pet stores for reptiles and aquatics as well. I also began working at animal hospitals, doggy daycares, and overnight boarding facilities. Now that I'm currently working as a barista, I want a way to continue caring for pets! I loved working with dogs and cats, but I'm willing to take care of almost anything. I work part time as a barista, and I have to spend some time each day with my parrot so I can't work before 11am to around noon. I'm only a barista three or so days per week, so I'm available any time after 11am/noon pretty often. Tuesdays I have an appointment at 2pm every week as well. I spent years caring for dogs and cats, even providing medical care to ill animals. My cat is diabetic and I've helped vaccinate puppies, so I'm okay with giving injections to animals with medical needs that would require it. I know basic first aid, have dealt with seizures in my own dogs, have worked with blind, deaf, and disabled dogs, and I consider it important to pay attention to an animal's body language (so that they always feel comfortable and safe).

“We were unable to do a meet and greet due to quick turnaround time and she still made us feel so comfortable watching our dog! Great communication, picture updates, and overall just a super kind human! Looking forward to booking her again for future trips. Thank you!!”


About: Does your dog like nature walks or is it more of a structured walk play type of animal? I can provide both. We can take long walks outdoors or we can find an area that is more city like and spend some time walking around. I have over 20 years experience caring for dogs. I have kids and treat my pets like my children they will be very loved. I have an open schedule I can work from 6am to at least 9 pm. I do not have a preference on the type of dog as I have owned from toy to giant and can handle them without any problems. We will play catch, run, and will provide obedience training at owners request.Will provide toys. I am currently self employed so I can provide all the love to your pups, right now I have a lot of love to give your baby. I do currently offer overnight services. If client wants dog to play in their personal yard I will follow the direction provided by the owner.

About: Animals have always been my world. After losing my beloved dog, I want to spend my time doing what I love, bathing, feeding, training puppies, caring for seniors, and providing loving, dependable care for every pet I offer love, puppy training, senior care, and all-around pet pampering to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. I’m an open book! With more free time in my schedule, I want to dedicate my days to something that truly brings me joy—caring for animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, bathing, puppy training, or senior pet care, I give every furry friend the same love and attention I would my own. Being able to fill my time surrounded by happy tails and purrs is exactly where I want to be. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide personalized, loving care based on each pet’s routine and personality. I make sure they have fresh food and water, daily walks or playtime, and plenty of affection. I can also handle bathing, feeding, administering basic medications, puppy training, and senior pet assistance. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and stress-free by maintaining familiar routines and giving them the same love and attention they’d get from their family.

“Dasha was great! She watched our 14 year old dog in our home for a week while we were on vacation. She gave us lots of updates and spent plenty of time with him. We had no worries when we were gone. Could not recommend more! Will absolutely request her for dog sitting again.”


About: I have worked in animal hospitals for 11 years, caring for a variety of different animals. I also have a bachelors degree in animal science I work long days at an animal hospital so I only work 3 days since it’s 12+ hours each day, gives me 4 days off Very knowledgeable with crates if needed, I have a hands free leash attachment so I can get more active with the pups and feline friendly

“This was my first occasion to use Rover. Four people who have routinely cared for my cat were unavailable. The last of the four canceled on me four days before I was to go out of town. They suggested I sign up with Rover. With some skepticism and a dollop of concern I did so. Of the sitters suggested, Ralph was the only one who was available on such short notice. He made it a point to come to my home a couple of days before I was to leave to visit with me and more importantly my 21 year old cat, Tallulah. While I was gone he diligently followed all of the instructions I left and kept me timely updated with videos and photos. A 21 year old cat is unusual and is very particular but Ralph handled her quite well and I was very satisfied,”

Ashley R.
“Ash is the single best animal caretaker I have ever met. She has a LOT of pets and I've seen her take care of each one extremely well. It's astonishing how she's able to remember all the right times to mist certain animals and feed them and bath them and do everything in her power to take the best care of them. She loves all her animals! And she's also incredible at making enclosures/terrariums, but I guess that wouldn't be relevant to pet caregiving. All her animals are happy and healthy! I think she would be the best pet caregiver you could possibly ask for. Also, she has a dog and cats, so she knows how to take care of those animals well!”
