“Aspen was so great. I was nervous about using rover and leaving my dog with a stranger, but Aspen was amazing. She was very friendly and welcoming when I dropped my dog off; she told me that she would be to take Effie on a few walks throughout the day and that she might even take her up to the lake. She sent me daily pictures and updates about the walks she would take with my dog and just overall how my dog was doing. It was nice to get the updates/pictures while I was gone for the week and put me more at ease with leaving her. There was a portion of Effie’s stay that another dog was going to be there and Aspen was very accommodating and wanted to make sure it was ok with me that there was another dog there (it was), but she even offered to go to my home on those days to let Effie out if it was not. I would definitely recommend Aspen and would use her again in the future :)”

“Allison did really good with my cat queen Liz I recommend her my cat never been around any cats before but Allison did good with introducing her with her cats I would definitely choose Allison again”

“I can’t begin to say enough about Lynn. With just moving to Cleveland and not knowing anyone here, it was hard for me to leave my 15yr old Pomeranian Walter with a stranger. He had only a handful of people I would leave him with back home and with all of his health issues I was concerned of his needs being met. Lynn went above and beyond her call of duty as a sitter. Sending messages, pictures and updates every day. This made my vacation 10 times more relaxing knowing he was well taken care of like he was one of hers. Thank you so much Lynn!”

“Jennifer and her family were fantastic hosts for Blake. They took the time to understand his special needs and quirks and took very good care of him. Thank you!!”


“Tori was awesome! I received daily updates and multiple pictures which made me so happy! Bailey was in such great hands! She had cuddles, treats and lots of fun with her dogs Barley and Porter. If you want your pup to have fun and feel home I highly recommend Tori. Bailey can’t wait to see them again!”

“Julie and her family are AMAZING! Take great care of our Sadie , send lots of cool pics, and constant updates during her stay. Highly recommend Julie’s services to everyone ! Thanks Julie ! Tim, Pam, and Sadie Anderson”

“Lea was great with our boys! We asked her to watch them during Thanksgiving weekend and she gladly accepted our request. I was pretty nervous because our dogs have never been around children for long periods of time but she sent the most ADORABLE pictures f our dogs hanging with her two younger boys and my heart almost burst. Our boys came back exhausted so you know they had a great time playing with them. She's very accommodating with whatever we needed to feel comfortable with a first-time sitter and we will DEFINITELY be calling her again!”
“Leslie is amazing. She takes great care of our fur babies and always does a little extra that helps us know things will be fine while we are gone (water plants, bring in mail, etc).”

“Mary took great care of Duke! She was lovely to speak with, sent adorable updates, and asked thoughtful questions about his care. Duke warmed up to her immediately and had a great time at her home. We would love for Mary to watch Duke again!”

“Lovingly cared for my Bella when we took a quick trip to visit our new grandbaby… There were Daley photos sent, I love the fact that she only takes one dog at a time so your dog gets all their attention”

“I took my dog, Mike, to David for an overnight stay because she gets nervous around new people and I would like her to be more comfortable in new situations. David and his family treated Mika like family and allowed her to gradually grow comfortable in her new surroundings. I highly recommend David -- caring, professional and knowledgeable. I be taking Mika back multiple times.”

“Rose appeared to be very calm when I picked her up. This was the first time that I had left her . I was very pleased with the communication and photos of her relaxing on the couch.”

“We had a great experience with Chelsea! She was very friendly, easy to communicate with, and took wonderful care of our dog while we were away. We appreciated the updates and could tell our pup was happy and well cared for. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“Riya is a phenomenal sitter, she has taken great care of my dog and is a wonderful communicator. I can travel stress free knowing my dog is in good hands.”

“Robert watched Mia at his house overnight for a few nights. He has a great fenced in backyard, perfect for our pup to run and stretch her legs. Mia came back happy and tired out from her running vacation ? We would definitely use Robert again!”

“Boarding with Clifford was simple in every step of the process! He took great care of our pup. His big fenced in back yard is the perfect spot for everyone to play and get their energy out! We were very happy with Clifford's care and will look to return in the future!”

Lakewood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Carla and her family are incredible! I was in Cleveland for work and unexpectedly needed a dog sitter She was super helpful and understanding. She took my dog for walks every day, even though she barks at every cat or dog she sees when she’s on walks She sent me videos and updates without me having to even ask. I’ve never had a dog sitter before so I was kind of nervous about texting everyday because I didn’t want to be annoying, she willingly sent me updates and even offered to allow me to come visit when I miss her. I definitely recommend! Five stars

Olesja was great to work with and gave us peace of mind during our trip out of the country. She even recorded a little video of her singing happy birthday to our dog - it was nice to know that although his family couldn’t physically be there, he was still being loved on and celebrated! ☺️

They did a wonderful job watching our girl Mouse. She had recently been spayed and they took time and care to make sure she didn’t have any issues while we were traveling for work. We will absolutely use their boarding services again. They sent daily photos and updates which were greatly appreciated. 10/10

First time boarding with Malik for a longer stay (5 days/4 nights instead of an overnight) and it went really well. I received some updates while I was gone and I returned to my pack (2 dogs and a cat) in good health and good spirits. Malik does an excellent job caring for my animals and has secured me as a returning customer!

I recently booked Kate on Rover.com to watch my dog, Herbie, and she was absolutely incredible! From the moment we arrived, Herbie felt right at home with her. Kate clearly has a natural way with dogs, providing so much love and attention that Herbie didn’t even want to come home with me at the end of his stay! Kate kept me updated with plenty of messages and photos, so I always felt reassured that Herbie was happy, safe, and well cared for. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pup like their own, but Kate truly goes above and beyond. I wholeheartedly give her 5 out of 5 stars and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dedicated
