About: Dog owner for 20+ years. Homeschool mom with all day availability except for on Fridays 9am-2pm. Do not have a pet now and are missing the experience having a dog. Looking to give the experience to love and support to my kids without owning a dog. Perfect for dog walking, playing, and poop picking upping while you are away at work or trips. I currently am only working 9am-2pm on Fridays and am available to care for your pet(s) before or after and every other day of week including weekends! I do not have a fully fenced in yard BUT I do have three fences. I like to be super active and playful with the dogs. I will walk them multiple times a day. I am also willing to take them to the dog park (only 15 minutes away from my house) I will can crate train or let them free roam my house. I treat these pups like they are my own! And I will follow any rules you wish for me to keep up!
“You will never book another sitter again after meeting Bryan! He loves and understands cats so truly and provides the best, most thoughtful updates. My cat is my baby and my best friend and I have never felt more secure with her in someone’s care!! He took care of absolutely everything and ensured he knew all about her quirks and personality and play habits and veterinary information just in case. She seems so happy and well taken care of! I assure you, your cat will love Bryan.”

“This was my first time having a sitter, and therefore my first time leaving my cat for a trip that was longer than a few days. Even though I was nervous, Ashley did a great job by ensuring me she was capable and excited to take care of my cat. While my cat doesn’t have any specific medical concerns, I do know she can be a bit finicky and I was worried about her not eating while I was away. Not only did my cat love Ashley and continued eating, I got updates even though I wasn’t able to view them for a while, due to international travel that I could look back at and know that she was well taken care of. My home and my cat were safe while I was on my vacation and I could be stress-free. If I ever need to travel again, I will definitely be booking with her in the future.”

About: Hi there! My name is Jada. I am 26 years old and i am a graduate from Horizon Science Academy High! All my life i’ve LOVED dogs. I’ve had different dogs growing up. When i was growing up, i found myself spending more time with my dogs than actual people. I would watch movies with them and play with them! They made me feel safe and warm! Dogs are way better than humans in my opinion! I can make conversations with them, make them feel loved, and most importantly, make sure they’re cared for! I believe that everyone needs a companion/bff, even animals! That’s where i come in! Allow me to care and love for your dog as i would for my own! We will for sure make memories! I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have tons of time to play with your pups! I always make sure to give all of my attention to the pups! I do not have a secluded yard, however I do have open field areas for your pups to run around in! There are tons of other dogs in my complex that are very loving and friendly!
About: Hi there! My name is Maddie and I just moved to the Cleveland area from Oregon! I have been a pet sitter/dog walker for 12+ years. I had quite a few ongoing clients back in Portland that varied from cats, elderly dogs requiring medications, and hyper active puppy breeds that I kept up on their leash training. I currently work from home full time so I’m able to stay with your pets for extended periods of time. I welcome meet and greets and will send photos of your fur babies consistently! I currently am working from home full time but crave to get out of the house during my breaks and lunch time to go for walks! If your pup or cat need some extra love during the day I am able to work from your home for extended hours as well if requested. I make sure to follow all directions and instructions left for me when caring for pets in their homes! Making sure to ask all safety questions, allergies, okay around other pets, etc to make sure that all parties involved are safe and comfortable!
About: I’ve been watching dogs for 12 years. I absolutely love dogs! (Who doesn’t) I know how much your animal means to you and I will treat them like my own. I am currently unemployed, so I have all the time in the world to walk, hang or chill with your dog. The only time I am unavailable are evenings due to volleyball. Other than that, I have a very open schedule. I treat your dog like my own. I will constantly look after them, play with them, train them, if you need, and most importantly, love them.
About: I love dogs and all animals. I had started a dog-walking/boarding service in downtown Cleveland while I was living at the 9. I had four clients who I worked for daily; I would take the dogs for a walk outside (or if raining, play with dogs at the dog park in the building,) I would clean up after them and change the bedding in their crats daily. If the pet's parents liked to have me take them on a route, they knew I would follow that, and I always follow the rules that the dog was brought up in as not to have bad habits with the parents come home. I know how to put on any harness and what to in emergencies. I love animals and get excited when I see one every time! I work remotely and can accommodate anything! I follow every schedule the babies have and I leave home as it was (or even more clean.) I also am very much understanding and will not go into any room with doors closed or anything without asking! I work from home and I am very responsible and consistent with my schedule! I am accommodating and follow ALL house rules and your babies are my first priority!
About: I have experience with puppies and seniors alike. For the past 5 years I have been responsible for neighbors houses and their pets as well! I work part time at a restaurant about 5 minutes from my house. I have time during the week and weekends after 2 pm on days that I work, as well as 3-4 days a week that are entirely open. I have two dogs of my own who behave well in our unfenced yard but we have two leads as well. They have a regular meal schedule and get all kinds of love and attention between my mom and sister and me. In a clients home I will treat the dogs as the owner would best advise, I would love to be able to be with the animal if needed.
“Joseph did a great job caring for my 2 kitties while I was on vacation. He sent pictures at every visit and the kitties never looked stressed. He took the time to play with them. Very polite and conscientious young man. I would hire Joseph again.”

About: Hi! I’m Jill and I have been a pet owner my entire life! I have had many puppies, dogs, cats and kittens myself so I definitely have a soft spot for our furry friends! Finding good pet care is just like finding a good babysitter you need someone you can trust and rely on! I hope to be that person for you! No matter if it’s a quick check-in or a walk, my total focus is making sure your pets are living their best life! I have been doing check-in and walks for over 10 years helping out coworkers, friends, family, and neighbors. Just because you might be busy or have a lot on your plate does not mean you should feel guilty for spending a little extra time away from your furry friends. I will use every minute with them to make sure they are comfortable, loved, healthy, safe and well-fed! When it comes to any special instructions, those are always a top priority, your wishes are my command! I run my own buisness and work only 5 minutes from my home! I am very flexible being on my own schedule! I don’t have children yet so my out of work schedule is very loose during the week days! When coming to your home to care for your pets all I ask is that some basic instructions of what you would like done is all that is required! I am well versed in pet care so most requests will not phase me! Dogs: I would love to take your pup for a walk or throw around their favorite toy in your yard if you have a fence or secured yard leash! Let me know how you would like their #2 disposed of for when they use the restroom! And of course, a treat or two for the big brave baby for being so good while their parents are away! Cats: feeding time/treat time is every kitties favorite! Whatever is needed will be executed with the addition of some pets and love! I am no stranger to a litter box so if we need a refresh, don’t hesitate to ask! All I ask, is that if your cat has a favorite toy to let me know what it is so we can have a little bit of playtime before our check-in time is over to keep them happy and enriched!
About: I am the person at a party that hangs out with the pets of the house instead of socializing. I have pretty much always had a dog in my house. I am currently my dog’s secondary care giver but during the day I become the primary. I currently work a part time job that takes up my time after 4:30pm on week days and around 5:30-11:00 am on weekends. My Sunday’s will be free after the 27th though I can easily crate your dog if needed, I am pretty cuddly and also love playing with dogs. I am also an avid hiker and love long walks.
About: I have a lot of experience with many pets as the go-to gal in my neighborhood and my own pets. My experiences include chickens, pugs pugs and more pugs, big dogs, little dogs, and cats. But, I love to learn so given a chance I could take on almost anything :).
About: I’ve provided care for animals since I was a young child. Successfully completed a basic dog training course at Alaska SPCA in 2016. My skill ranges from walks to grooming, I’ve got you covered! Currently, I’m working full-time with free availability Sunday through Tuesday! I will require at least a three day notice before the date of booking. Please message me for any questions you may have! I have a balcony and plenty of space for your fur baby to lounge and play. Currently my roommate is an agreeable cat. Chai is pleasant and tolerable to other cats and small dogs.
“I needed help last minute. Savannah was more than willing to help and responded quickly. She took tons of pics of my boy and adjusted to our needs. I will be contacting her again.”

About: I very much enjoy engaging with and taking care of all types of animals and I have owned and cared for animals since childhood. I have the most experience with cats and dogs but have owned and looked after a range of other pets as well. I can provide the appropriate level of care and attention to your pets that you are looking for and am more than happy to provide as many photos or updates for you to feel good about being away. From puppies to elderly pets I have cared for all ages and types of pets! My goal is to get as many regular clients as possible, so I am very open to working through rates that work for both sides for ongoing or regular services. I have a large SUV so i can also do drop off and pickup if that would be helpful. Because I work from home full-time, I'm able to offer a level of flexibility. I can usually accommodate early mornings, evenings, last-minute requests, and everything in between — just ask! Punctuality and reliability are something I take seriously, so you can always count on me to be there when I say I will. My home is welcoming for all animals and there is an acre and a half in the back with plenty of room to play. I am active and engaged with animals and will make sure any routine or special care requirements are followed.
“Adara was absolutely wonderful with Javi and Tamale! From the start, it was clear she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care — she was attentive, gentle, and really listened to everything I shared about their needs and routines. The regular updates she sent gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I came home to two happy, relaxed pups, which says everything. We will 100% be booking with Adara again — highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pets like her own!”
About: There has never been segment of time where I did not have a pet— dogs, cats, ferrets, hamsters, fish, a baby squirrel. I started pet-sitting for neighbors & family friends during high school and continued to accept requests through word-of-mouth. I have experience with puppies, seniors, special needs, and pets with less-than-friendly personalities. All pets are welcome with me. I work full-time in healthcare, the standard M-F, 9-5. Your pet’s morning & evening routine will be carried out thoroughly with plenty of outdoor time. Weekends will be invested with your pet. If they can tolerate a hike, then we’ll definitely be taking a field trip. Your pet's comfort and entertainment is my responsibility. I will follow your pet's schedule & routine and support your training efforts to the best of my ability. The ultimate goal is for your pet to not even know that you left.
About: I have professional animal care experience of 4+ years working in a dog daycare/boarding facility and in pet stores where I cared for small mammals, reptiles, and fish. I've also had dogs and cats my whole life. New to cleveland area, looking to explore and earn on this side gig! I currently work as a bartender- almost exclusively at night, so my days are very open! The perfect fit for me would be jobs in the early afternoon. With love, kindness, and respect! Animals are living creatures and should be treated as such. That being said I'm aware certain animals will need specific care and would do whatever I could to comply with them :)

Madison! Thank you thank you again for your help Saturday. It allowed me to spend time with out-of-town family that I never get to see and it means a lot! Thank you for being available, for taking such good care of my puppy, and for showing her the attention she deserves and needs. Will definitely be reaching out again! I appreciate you!

Amanda is so awesome, attentive, and sweet! She came for a meet and greet before watching our dog and she made sure she got to know him as well as learn everything I had to tell her about our dog and his routine. Her drop in visit was thorough, with regular updates and communicaton and a couple of pictures. We came back to a happy, calm dog on a busy weekend. We are grateful for Amanda and definitely recommend her!

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Highland Heights choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
