“Courtney arrived 15-min early before we needed to leave. She did an outstanding job with our puppies while we were away. No accidents in the house! She occasionally sent us photos of the puppies while we were away. Courtney is a person of good character and work ethic you can trust.”
“Ishmell was great! We had such peace of mind knowing he was at our house with our pup and appreciated all the text and photo updates we got. I would 100% book with him again!”

About: Will care for furbabies with feeding, walks, playtime, and treats. I have had my dog (lola) and cat (spice) for a couple years now and love them dearly, I am hoping to create space to care for your babies as well. I’m currently studying for my licensed social work exam and have time around my study schedule to care for your pets! I currently have open availability. Pet care will differ depending on what is requested by pet parent. I will care for your pets with walks, feedings, baths, nail clippings, cleaning litter boxes/picking up after dogs, etc. Open to short term boarding but prefer client home care/support.
“Shannon was so detailed and extremely caring for my girl!! She consistently sent pictures and updates about when she was hanging out with her. This was my first experience leaving my pup at home without us and I could not have had anyone better! Thank you again Shannon, and we will for sure see you again!”
“Nancy was wonderful with Ozzie! She was very responsive and proactive throughout the weekend, and it was obvious how sweet and caring she was with him. She was also incredibly attentive and asked thoughtful, appropriate questions to make sure she understood his routine and that nothing was missed. We felt very comfortable knowing Ozzie was in such good hands and would absolutely recommend Nancy!”
“Peyton was amazing!! Very accommodating, communicative, and a true professional! Our dog Toby felt comfortable with Peyton immediately, and we could tell how happy he was in every update picture she sent us. 100/10 would recommend to anyone and everyone!”
“Jaina did so well with my dogs! One of them is a little tough to meet but Jaina was calm and collected and was quickly able to help my pup feel comfortable. 10/10 would absolutely recommend!”
“Bailey is an excellent sitter. She watched our dogs and house for 6 days and I couldn't be happier with her services. One of our dogs is elderly and needs special assistance, and Bailey was so caring and careful with her. Our other dog caused some trouble while we were gone, and Bailey handled it with grace and patience. She is dependable, nice, trustworthy, responsive, great with the dogs, and left our house in perfect condition. Most importantly, the dogs really like her! I appreciate the ease of mind she gave me, and I would definitely book her again.”
“Marti watched my husband and I’s dog at our house for a few days when we were on vacation, and she was great! She sent me pictures of Louie twice a day and kept me updated with how he was doing. She was very responsive in the planning process when I had questions, and kept up with great communication during her stay. Our house was clean when we got home and our dog seemed happy and healthy. I definitely recommend Marti for any dog/ house sitting needs!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Anthony. This is the second time we've used him and he is very professional. He even left our dog a little goody bag of treats/toys. Highly recommend!”
About: I have years of experience with pet care including working at Doggy Daycare, Pet Supplies Plus, as well as owning my own furry friends before! I am comfortable and familiar with all types of dogs, big and small, high or low energy, and love catering a personal plan to whatever your pets needs are. I am currently at home 24/7 and can be attentive to any animals at all times! I am more than happy to walk and play with any dogs that need more attention & are high energy. This fits into my daily/weekly routine because I am currently not working and would love some furry friends to keep me company and hang out with! I live an active lifestyle so walking is not a problem for me and I love being outdoors! I care for pets in my home or clients’ homes by being efficient and personal in my care. I love catering to specific pets’ needs and will treat them like they are one of my own. I love walking & have a huge yard for dogs to play and run around in!
About: I’ve house sat for friends and family for many years. I spent a few years being a nanny for two tiny humans and a golden lab. I am looking to make some extra money and help out other animal parents. Available for daily walks in the morning and night. If close to work I can walk during my lunch break. Available also for weekday/weekend sleep overs if needed. I will come to your house for daily walks, feedings or weekend sleep overs if needed. Play time, walks, and snuggles will be a plenty.
About: I attended BGSU, studying Criminal Justice and Forensic Investigation.I am a very outgoing, friendly, and loving person. I recently adopted my cat Gummy. Previously I’ve taken care of my aunt’s 5 dogs (2 of which are seniors) and 1 cat. I am very familiar with animal medications including: pill pockets, ear cream, topical skin cream, and liquid medicine. My cat Gummy has Stomatitis and Stage 2 Kidney Disease so I’m familiar with having to give gabapentin as well as other medicine. I understand the importance of animals who have medical needs and schedules. I love providing the care your fur babies need!
“Nate is hands down the BEST dog sitter I’ve ever had! 5 stars all around with communication, respectfulness, professionalism, compassion, friendliness. I would recommend him to anyone, and I will be using him from now on to dog sit! He put my mind at ease while away by sending frequent updates with pictures and I never once was anxious about being away from my fur babies. I can’t thank you enough for devoting your time and giving the best care to my babies!”
“Being our first experience with Rover, we were nervous about leaving our two elderly dogs for a long weekend with someone we didn’t know. Both have special needs, and one requires around-the-clock supervision. Thankfully, Emily was there for us. While we were impressed with her skills and experience, what really put us at ease was her enthusiasm, attentive nature and genuine compassion for the pets she cares for. Emily addressed all our concerns, bonded quickly with our dogs, kept us informed and somehow managed to follow all our complex care instructions. We are grateful to Emily for keeping our puppies safe and hope that she will be available to watch over them again when the time comes.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets As a business owner, I have a flexible schedule and can tailor my availability to meet each pet’s needs. I’m able to adjust my schedule when needed to provide the best care possible. I own my home ( with my Husband ) and have a nice fenced in backyard with lots of grass to run around. I also have 2 fur babies of my own. Lillie is (F) yorkipoo and Cayde is (M) labor doodle. Your fur baby will never feel lonely. My 2 dogs are friendly and love to meet new people.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mayfield Heights
Molly was able to watch our dogs very last minute. She was a good communicator throughout the stay and was helpful about bringing in our packages. She also took the sheets off the guest bed before leaving, which we appreciated! Overall, a great experience!
Rebecca stayed with my sweet senior Eevie for 4 days and I came home to a relaxed, and clearly well cared for dog. Eevie had a UTI when I left town so Rebecca gave her antibiotics, probiotics and two other daily medications. Rebecca sent photos during her visit and responded right away when I checked in by text. In addition, I came home to an extremely clean house. Rebecca is professional, accommodating, down to earth and very kind. She's a real gem!
Falyn did a great job watching our three high energy dogs and cat for the weekend. Our animals were so happy with her care and we can tell they loved having her! She was responsive and easy to work with. Our house was also just as tidy when we came home! Will hire her again and again!!!!
Brittney is truly amazing. From making sure the animals were comfortable with a meet-and-greet, to making sure that all dietary and special needs were considered. Even with the typical NEOH snowstorm, Brittney made sure my babies received the best care. I will be rebooking again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Mayfield Heights is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $78 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 pet’s 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 1,273 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mayfield Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s 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 Mayfield Heights walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Mayfield Heights 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 they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s 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 Mayfield 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!
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 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 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 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 sitter’s 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, you’ll 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
