About: I have pet sat for years, with both cats and dogs. I also have a dog of my own who is 7. I take care of every dog the way I would want my own to be taken care of. Iâm a full-time graduate student, and I work full-time. Taking care of dogs as a way to make some extra money to pay for school and rent is the goal! I can easily crate a dog if needed or make sure they are kept safe in a fenced in yard. I am also able to keep a dog safely on their leash.
âChristabel was great with my cats, and she was very communicative during my trip. I appreciated her ability to take my booking, even though it was last minute. I will definitely keep her in mind for future trips!â
âElizabeth was amazing and took such great care of Gus! She sent pictures and videos and kept us thoroughly updated each day that we were gone. We would be very happy to have Elizabeth sit Gus again!â
âMitchell diligently cared for our dogs while we were away for a week. Thanks to his daily updates, we were able to sleep easy knowing they were in good hands!â
âDanielle was truly heaven sent while we were on our honeymoon. Our dog has special needs and she handled everything like a pro! Our pup even had some tummy troubles while she was there and she went absolutely above and beyond to take care of him until we could get back. We are so grateful to have found Danielle and we will absolutely book with her again!â
About: Hi! Iâm Danielle, and Iâve always loved dogs and their fun, energetic personalities. I grew up with a yellow Lab who was part of my family for 15 years, and I regularly help care for my sisterâs and friendsâ dogs. Iâm reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy being active with dogs. Iâd love to give your pup plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and love while youâre away! I am a full time teacher but available in the evenings after 4pm. I am available most weekends as well! I am an early riser and enjoy spending as much time outside as possible. I have a fenced yard and small sun porch. I do not have any other animals in the home so I am able to be very attentive and accommodating to your pets various needs! I live near a small public park and am walking distance to Edgewater Park. I also am more than happy to take your dog on hikes and have a vehicle that is pet-safe.
âElizabeth took great care of our 2 year old dog, Rory. She was completely reliable, sent lots of pictures, and we could tell he was well loved when we returned home. She left our house very clean and communicated well with lots of pictures while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again!â
About: My family adopted our first dog when I was 7-years old! It was my responsibility to pick up after the dog and take her on long, long walks. As she got older and I moved out, I would often return home to take care of her while my father was traveling for work. I got used to late night potty outings and helping her up the steps. My goal is to make sure every dog feels loved and cared for. I currently work part-time, so I have time on my hands and I would love to spend more of the free time with animals. I have two wonderful cats (a senior lady and a young lady) that I come home to. Currently, Iâm available in the mornings Saturday-Tuesday and Friday, and all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays to look after your fur babies. I can also do late evenings after 8:30 Tuesday, Friday-Saturday. I have two litter boxes that are cleaned daily in my home. A plethora of cat toys, several different cat beds that my cats love to rotate around. Our fence is unfortunately broken, but Iâm always happy to walk to the park nearby for playtime with your pets as needed.
âMegan and Jeremiah were great. It was only one night, but they took great care of my foster dog, Zoey. They left my house prsotiem and even took out my garbage! They were both very friendly and kind.â
âAmanda is great. Unfortunately she got unexpectedly sick with the Flu. However, she is AMAZING on communication and care, so we were able to work everything out. She handled it very professionally.â
About: Hello! I am an animal lover who has multiple years of care experience. I have a puppy so I am aware of the special care needs they may have. I also specialize in cats. I am flexible when it comes to cancellations and care times. I work second shift so I am able to provide care in the mornings or late at night. Late night care does not bother me, as I am a night owl! I am able to board, however I would prefer cats or small dogs. In my spare time I love to exercise, so I would love to take your pup on a long walk! I love animals, so rest assured your friend will be in loving, caring hands when you are away! I work overnights, so I am able to provide care in the mornings, during the day, and in evenings. I am flexible when I need to be! I reside in an apartment and have a large, unfenced yard. Perfect for supervised playtime! I have 2 friendly cats that would love to keep your pet company.
About: I would love to babysit your pets while you are away! I welcome pets up to 80 lbs and with affordable pricing and providing in-home and outside care with three day bookings and cancellations in the Cleveland area (up to 25 miles radius) Iâm sure to fit your needs. I hope to meet you and your pet soon! Thanks I am currently working 7:00am-3:00pm as an STNA and Iâm free any time after and looking for a second job thatâs enjoyable and with animals. I have a fenced in yard, crates are available if needed. I also have a 3 year old lab mix who just loves other animals!
About: I grew up with having pets in our home, so theyâve always been a part of my everyday life! Iâm autistic and ADHD, and animals are one of my special interests. They mean a lot to me and I love interacting, caring for and spending time with them. I work full-time as a chef in a country club, but the slow season has started and weâre closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, so I have nothing to do with my time đ . I work in the morning on Sunday and Iâm off at 2 pm, but the rest of the week I work nights 2 pm to 10 pm, and most likely am not able to pet-sit those days! I have two male cats who are twin brothers, and they are 13 years old. My one cat Carlos has ulcerative colitis and pancreatitis, so we are very diligent with his medicine schedule and his food/everyday life decisions. My sister has a dog, and we also babysit him sometimes, so Iâm learning how to care for dogs more! I love all animals and Iâm a fast learner and will be very protective of your pets and their needs, but I do have more experience with cats!

Maia goes above and beyond to care for our two doodles when we are out of town. This time she even got them gifts which was such a thoughtful and sweet thing to do. If youâre looking for someone to love your fur babies like you do, Maia is the one to hire. Top notch!
Jessica was great. She kept me informed while I was away. Initially by reading her profile, I felt she would be a good fit for my pet. I believe I made the right choice. She left my house, just as I left it also. Highly recommend and I hope she will come back in the future.
Steven was great. He came out to meet the dogs ahead of the booking to help them get familiarized with him and discuss their needs with us face to face. This was greatly appreciated. He also provided frequent and timely communication which we also greatly appreciated. We would definitely book Steven again.
Cora is a fantastic sitter with so much care and compassion! She was punctual, highly communicative, and did everything we asked. We got lots of pictures and came home to a healthy, happy pup. Will gladly have her back in the future and recommend her to anyone!
Leslie stayed with our dog and cat for a week while we were on vacation. She kept us updated throughout the week and our pets seemed very happy and well taken care of when we returned! Leslie left our house in great shape and we will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!
Laura is awesome! She took great care of our dog and provided several updates throughout the week we were gone. She is very easy to communicate with and you can tell how much she genuinely cares for animals. We will definitely be booking her again! Thanks for everything Laura!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Linndale is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $91 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your petâs specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,256 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Linndale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Linndale walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Linndale maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Linndale 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!
The Rover Guarantee is Roverâs 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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Justiceâs 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitterâs cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, youâll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Linndale. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
