About: Hi!!! I love dogs and love watching them! Love their personalities and am good with showing them love ! I can’t wait to meet your baby/babies! I have a pretty open schedule! During the day I am always home. Some nights I work but when at work my man is home. I have a mini dachshund whose name is Oreo 😊who is super friendly and playful! I live in an apartment and put my window I have a little area where the dogs can run free that is fenced in! I can also take the dogs on walks or just let them play inside whatever you’re comfortable with! However they live with you they will live with me 🥰
About: I’ve always had a multitude of pets ranging from birds, to dogs and cats, and crustaceans. I’m the perfect go to for all of your pet needs. Ever since I was 8 I have been pet sitting, bathing and grooming, as well as learning the basics to developing great relationships with animals. This journey is one of the main factors that has led me to going to college for Veterinary studies. Currently I am a student at The Ohio State University with a focus on Pre-Vet! Currently, my hours of availability begin at 6 am and usually end around 6pm for dog waking services. For drop in visits and stay in visits, I have open availability. In my clients home I make sure to never go beyond my parameters and to always care for the pet in the most comfortable and effortless way possible. I am very experienced with dog walking and ensuring that the walks are both productive and fun for both me and your pet. This includes casual jogs, sightseeing (nature) walks, and walks suited for older or handicapped animals. As for feeding, I always make sure to give your pet the desired amount that you have given to me to make sure that no over feeding happens, and treats are only given upon authorization from owners.
About: I’ve had dogs since forever, I love mine more than anything. My experiences dog sitting and cat sitting range from my neighbors and family to taking care of animals on my uncles farm. I love meeting people’s pets so it would be my pleasure to meet more!! My dog Ruby is 15 years old and I love her to death, I can’t imagine her being alone all day. I go to college full time at Cleveland State University. I do play in multiple orchestras as well, but although I’m busy I have time in between classes and in the afternoons/evenings that I struggle to fill! I would love to have a slow morning taking care of a pet, or going on a walk, so I am very flexible. I understand that all pets have their own personality, and honestly the best way to take care of them relies on me getting to know them. The quirks about pets are my favorite thing about them, and I am willing to work with any needs they have. I love spending time with any animal and making sure they feel loved and entertained.
About: I have 5+ years of experience walking and taking care of dogs, and I’ve loved every second of it. Exercising with a furry friend is always on my agenda! I am currently a full-time student at DePaul University in Lincoln park! I only have a class or two daily, leaving me open weekdays from 8-11 and 5-10! Weekends my availability depends, but I am flexible! I love to exercise and find ways to get my walks in daily, the buddy would just be an added plus! I currently live in a dorm, so any services would need to be provided outside of my residence. Im willing to stay overnights most days, depending on distance to Lincoln park / the loop.
“Charlotte was incredibly efficient, always arriving on time and following my instructions. Communication was a breeze; she kept me updated with photos and messages, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Most importantly, my dog absolutely loves her! He was happy and well cared for, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
About: To me, every pet is a noble creation of nature we should treat with respect and compassion. I believe every pet should live a full life of happiness and fun, and I treat all pets the way I treat my own. I work from home all week, so I always have extra energy at the end of the day to go out. It's a perfect opportunity to get out and enjoy the day while helping a pet have some time and exercise. I don't currently have a home great for boarding dogs as my yard is too small, and my house has a feisty cat as well.
“Dasha has been great with both of my dogs! Blue is a new puppy to us and certainly requires much more work, however Dasha was absolutely fantastic with him and he seemed very thrilled with having someone able to come and play with him while I was gone for the day!”
About: I am a huge animal lover; I’ve had pets my whole life and know how much a routine matters to them, especially during a stressful time apart from their family. I’ve cared for a diabetic dog, giving insulin shots three times a day for years, and also babysat a diabetic cat — so I’m comfortable with medication schedules and special-needs care. I’m an active person who treats every fur baby like they are my best friend because that’s what they deserve! I have a flexible schedule and work from home Mondays and Fridays, so those days are perfect for midday walks or potty breaks — I can easily fit your pup into my schedule without rushing. On weekends, I’m open to house sitting or home visits, giving your pet consistent, attentive care while you’re away. I don’t board pets at my own home, so all care happens at your house, keeping your pet in their familiar, comfortable environment. During home visits or house sits, I follow your routines closely for feeding, walks, and medication, and I’m experienced with special and elder pet needs. I treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.
About: I am an experienced dog walker and pre-covid ran a successful in-home dog daycare for 5 years. I have experience working with breeds of all sizes, from your tiny papillon to your huge Great Dane. I’d love the opportunity to walk your dog and/or visit them at home for some social interaction during the day. If you have any questions, I’m here to answer them! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Since I work part-time, I have ample availability throughout the week, including weekends. This means I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine, whether you need regular dog walking or drop-in visits. I’m committed to providing reliable and convenient services to ensure your pets are well taken care of whenever you need assistance. When caring for your pet at your home, my priority is to create a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I’ll ensure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise while following their routine. For dog walking, I focus on providing an enjoyable and safe experience, adapting to your dog’s energy level and preferences. Whether it’s leisurely strolls or more vigorous adventures, I’m dedicated to keeping your furry friend happy and healthy. Regular updates and communication will keep you informed about how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Elliot was so helpful, watching our boys last minute when we had a family emergency out of town! He made us feel very comfortable and we came home to happy cats! Thanks Elliot!”
“Mary was amazing! She checked in on our two kittens while we were away for a week. We were quite anxious about leaving them and she gave us so much reassurance with lots of updates and photos. The cats were very fond of her and we would absolutely work with her again!”
About: Reliable Care for Pets of All Kinds I offer in-home pet sitting tailored to your pet’s routine and personality. Services include feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box or yard clean-up, medication administration if needed, playtime, and regular updates while you’re away. My goal is to keep your pets comfortable, safe, and stress-free in their own home. I have experience dog and cat sitting for family and neighbors! I am a student so on weekdays I will only be available after 4pm but most weekends I am totally free! My nightly routine consists of making sure my pets are fed and taken care of and I always make sure they are happy and healthy! I know some animals need the extra care and how important it can be, so if there are any special instructions for a pet I always make sure to follow those to the letter!
“Kacey took excellent care of my two cats when I was gone and went above and beyond what I would expect from a sitter. I would definitely hire again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring cat sitter.”
“Octavia took great care of our pups! Our one dog, Frankie, is very reactive to strangers and a hard sell and she warmed up to her so well! She took the time to make sure Frankie felt safe and comfortable! Both dogs were very happy to have her there! We can’t wait to hire her again!”
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. DOES NOT PROVIDE CAT SERVICES HIGHLY ALLERGIC!!! 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.

About: Growing up I’ve always loved animals, As a child I would rescue stray dogs and provide food, care and shelter. I helped many pets get back to there homes also. My dream was to become a veterinarian, though I took a different route my love for animals never left and I still operate in a field of care. The Different pets I had where birds , fish , turtles, rabbits , dogs and cats. I’ve always prided myself on knowing the intricacies about the different breeds of animals and what makes them special or unique and what they require to be healthy and happy. Though I’ve had many breeds of animals I know I still have much to learn but one day I aspire to open a shelter or nonprofit organization for pets in need of a loving home. Trusting your animal with me I can Guarantee there safety and protection but also ensure that in my home will be equally as loved. I’m familiar with grooming techniques, administering shots for puppy’s and medicines a dog may require. I can also make sure that anything you may be teaching your pet will be carried out while in my care or any schedule you may have your dog on will be implemented also. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and walk then 4/5 times daily. Two long walks and two short walks and extra if the weather is nice or we are outside taking adventures. I prefer evening drop offs and pickups. I care for pets often. This is something I genuinely love to do. I like to follow the instructions owner give when taking care of their pets
About: I grew up around dogs and have a heart for them. I love them and will take great care of them like I do my own fur baby. They are our family forever!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I am teacher, so I am currently on summer break from school. This allows me to have some extra time to walk your dog, check in and let my dog make some new friends with your fur baby! Our fur baby has a crate and a warm, loving home where she is spoiled rotten! I would do the same for your pup to make sure they receive the best care possible.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Maple 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
