“Our two pups had a wonderful time over a long weekend with Tara's and Peter's family! Thank you, and thanks for your flexibility on scheduling when our travel plans were disrupted!”


“Anna and Christian were so great !! Our little Toby was well loved and taken care of. I received morning and evening updates with pictures which sure helped us, knowing he was having a good time. I would highly recommend them if you’re in the Cleveland area!”


“I recently had the pleasure of booking a 12-day boarding with Ashya and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, the communication was fantastic. Ashya was incredibly responsive and kept me updated with regular photos, videos and messages about how my Cleo was doing, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Cleo was clearly well-cared for, happy, and even relaxed when I picked her up. Ashya went above and beyond to make sure Cleo got her required exercise, and felt comfortable and loved throughout the stay. The professionalism, attention to detail and love for animals really shone through in everything Ashya did. I highly recommend Ashya for anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you so much Ashya for making my dog’s stay so easy and wonderful 🩷”


“Summer was perfect, from her communication to professionalism to just being completely understanding of dogs and pet parents. I was comfortable with my decision from start to finish. She asked questions if she wasn’t sure and left me tons of videos and photos to keep me updated. She has been my favorite and I will be using her services again (most likely only her lol, thanks Rover)”


“Susan was an awesome sitter for my dog. My husband and I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her for a couple of days. She kept us updated throughout the day with pics and conversation. We’re so happy to have found her.”


“Swetha and her family took amazing care of Omar! They truly treated him like part of their family. They sent us so many photos of Omar enjoying his time with them and clearly doted on him during his stay. Omar already misses them! We will definitely be coming back to them again next time we need a dog sitter for Omar.”


“Takia hosted my sheepadoodle during some late planned holiday travel. She was very accommodating as we feed a raw diet to my dog, and her communication and updates were great during my time away.”


“Marilyn took great care of my Jack Russell - Cooper. He was in good spirits when I dropped him off and was the same when I picked him up. She took pictures to show me how he settled in and got comfortable and I appreciate that. We will have her look after him again. Thanks!”


“Craige accommodated my last-minute request to board my pup for 4 days and made my first Rover experience seamless. He was upfront and transparent during the meet-and-greet, answering all my questions and putting my mind at ease. His home is clean, and he was attentive to my pup’s needs, keeping me updated with photos. I highly recommend Craige for anyone looking for an affordable and reliable dog sitter!”


“Brendan & Sarah are the best! They took great care of our two large dogs and sent us plenty of pics and updates. It’s such a relief to know our dogs are well cared for when we go out of town.”



“Pamela was very accommodating for our meet & greet as well as Buddy's stay. It was last minute due to the fact our regular sitter canceled on us. She was very informative during Buddy's stay, she also sent a pic for us. I know Buddy was well cared for which is why I highly recommend Pamela and we will be using her again in the future! ”


“Karlee was very pleasant to work with! Just the right amount of updates and was flexible with her time. Our dog was well cared for and rested after her weekend with Karlee. Would definitely recommend and hope to book again!”

“Victoria and family were amazing. My Phife stayed with them last minute and I could not be more please with the warmth, love and care shown to Phife. I was out of the country for 2 1/2 weeks and while my internet availability was unpredictable; it made my day to get pictures of Phife enjoying himself with Victoria. The add in services are convenient too, as I am busy and after being gone for so long I didn't have the energy to bathe Phife. So Victoria bathed him and had Phife ready to go for me. I am using Victoria for another 10 day work travel and whenever we need a dog sitter.”


About: I’ve had cats and dogs as pets most of my life. I had a senior cat I administered fluids and insulin to. I have a puppy that I got at 8 weeks old. I’ve recently done potty training, walk training and trick training with my doodle. I recently retired and am looking to spend some time with furry friends rather than sitting at a desk! My schedule is flexible but prefer morning walks. I will work with you to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable while you are away. Any special requests such as certain treat or walk time will be accommodated when possible!

“Took great care of my pup while I dealt with a busy day. Was very communicative with updating me on how she was doing. Even returned her with a new toy and clipped nails. Highly recommend!”


“Mareika was able to watch our dog on short notice and we’re glad we found her! Clear communication, provided updates during his stay and was an easy drop off/pickup process. Our dog can be anxious in a new space but he adapted quickly with Mareika and her pup. We’d absolutely recommend her!”
