“Courtney did a great job caring for Molly at our house while we were traveling. She took on the job last minute and she still made time to come by to do a meet and greet beforehand. We appreciated the numerous photos and updates she sent!”
“Nicole treated our boys like her own while we were away visiting family. They are used to having somebody around during the day and Nicole didn’t hesitate to alter her schedule to ensure she was around to love on them. Came home to a clean house and happy boys!”
About: I grew up with dogs. I can groom, bathe, walk, and clean up throw up. I have been relied on by friends and family to let their dogs out and feed them while they are out of town. I am currently a college kid searching for an internship, so my days are wide open! I tend to go on walks during the day, so bringing along a furry friend would be great company. I will follow the directions given to me so your dog will be comfortable with a stranger entering their house. I am great with boundaries.
“This is our second time working with Christina, and she is so good with our kitties. I am especially grateful that she was able to help when our flights were delayed coming home to make sure our girls were fed and safe. Thanks again!!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have been caring for pets for almost my whole life taking care of my own dogs and helping out friends and family with theirs. I have experience with dogs of all different sizes and personalities, and I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playing, and giving them plenty of attention. I have experience taking care of puppies and older dogs. I’ll treat your pet like they’re one of my own! I am currently college student with a flexible schedule outside of school. Most days I am free after 2pm for overnight stays or later day walks and play time. I have breaks in my school schedule for quick walks and potty breaks. In my clients home I will make sure to follow all rules and schedules they have for their pets and I will always keep a close eye on their pets! And most importantly make sure their pet has fun!
“Mont’e was absolutely amazing! He provided excellent care for my cat and dog while house sitting. I was pretty nervous to leave town and Mont’e was super kind and professional. He updated me regularly, took my dog on walks, and even took her to his family’s Christmas Eve celebration (after asking of course) because I was worried about her having separation anxiety! Mont’e treated my pets as if they were his own and when I came back they were both super calm and relaxed because of the great care provided. Mont’e was also super respectful of my home and left it very neat and tidy! Highly recommend Mont’e for all pet sitting needs, I’ll definitely be asking him to come back!”
“I’m so grateful for Brittney’s care of my two dogs and two cats during the Christmas week.From the start, she was responsible, reliable and kind. She visited our house twice a day, even during Christmas. Gave my cat medication properly and gently.She left my home clean and tidy. Most importantly, my furry babies felt safe and happy with her. They bonded with Brittney so quickly, and could see they were in wonderful hands. Her calm presence and reliability gave us peace of mind while we were away of the country and it’s so good to have now someone we can trust when a new trip comes. Our schedule changed several times and I’m so grateful for her flexibility and patience! I will definitely hire Brittney again! Thank you Brittney for everything - you made a world of difference for us!”
“Alaina helped us out last minute. We had never used her before, but she was wonderful! Updated us daily with pics - was quick to respond - even took care of one our boys when he cut his paw on something in the backyard. When we got home from our travels the boys were super happy! Definitely feel comfortable having her watch my boys again!”
“Our 3 dogs absolutely loved Gianna. She took amazing care of them and was fully engaged in them and their needs. She followed any instructions perfectly and dogs were so happy. The boys got the royal treatment. They will be so excited when she comes back to see us. Ty Gianna”
“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!”
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: Taking care of my cats for the past several years, and constantly taking my dog on walks and taking care of her in her old age. I work part time, but on the off days I am free at pretty much all the time. I am free on most wednesdays, fridays, saturdays and sundays to care for your pets. I take a lot of care in making sure that animals do not escape from a yard or their leash, and I am willing to crate your dogs if needed.
“Lauren was fantastic! She came over for a meet and greet with our little pup and was so nice to her! Would recommend to anyone! Very easy to get in touch with as well!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to Baker, our 5-year-old adopted coonhound. He’s such a big part of my life that he even inspired me to write and publish a children’s book about him, Learning to Count with Baker the Dog! Having Baker has given me years of firsthand experience with the responsibility, attention, patience, and love that go into caring for a dog. My husband and I also regularly help care for our sister-in-law’s two dogs when she’s away, sometimes having them stay with us for several days at a time. We also love helping our friends by watching their dogs in our home when they need a sitter. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet. Whether your dog is staying with me, needs a walk, or just needs some extra attention and company, I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I give Baker. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or other instructions you provide. I also understand that every dog has their own personality, and I’ll take the time to learn what makes yours feel comfortable and happy. You can expect dependable care, great communication, plenty of updates and photos, and lots of attention for your pup. I’d love to meet you and your dog and help give you peace of mind while you’re away! I work fully remote from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day and makes pet care fit very naturally into my routine. I’m able to be present for regular walks, potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day rather than leaving a dog alone for long stretches. Because my schedule is flexible, I can also adjust around each dog’s normal routine and specific needs. Whether your pup is staying with me, needs a daytime visit, or just benefits from some extra company and attention, I’m able to make their care a consistent part of my day. When caring for pets in my home, I do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and part of the family. Since I work remotely, I’m able to be home with them throughout much of the day for regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also make sure to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and will learn about their personality, preferences, and any special instructions before their stay. Because we have our own dog, Baker, I prefer to do a meet-and-greet before boarding whenever possible so we can make sure the dogs are comfortable together. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their home and their pet’s established routine. I’ll follow all instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any other care needs, while making sure their pet receives plenty of attention and companionship. For either type of care, communication is very important to me. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“This is the first time we have used her and she was amazing! One of my cats is very shy and loved her from the beginning. We were out of town for quite a while and I never worried once. The pictures she sent daily proved they were happy. I highly recommend her.”
“Devaneyis awesome! From the moment she walked in the door I was completely comfortable with her watching my dog Micki! She picked her up from my daughters and stayed later than expected when my flight was delayed. She was responsive, sent pictures and truly cared about how Micki was doing! I would highly recommend !”
“Octavia did drop-in/housesitting visits with my pup for two long weekend trips and I was so happy with her! She sent great updates and lots of pics :) She spent a lot of time with our dog including plenty of walks and cuddles. Octavia was our regular dog-walker for a year before our schedules changed and we were so happy to have her back for two long weekends. Highly recommend for walks and housesitting!”
“Avery was great, they handled Sam, which can be a handful sometimes with a lot of patience and care. They sent constant updates which really helped me feel at ease while having a night out.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mayfield Heights
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!

FAQs for House Sitting - Mayfield Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mayfield Heights on Rover is $54.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,268 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
