“Alexis was great with my Charlie boy! I was in a pinch and needed a sitter last minute and she saved the day! I could tell from the photos she sent me that Charlie was excited to see her and spend time with her everytime she went to let him out, and her playing with him in the backyard and taking him for walks goes a long way towards making him feel happy when he’s got a little separation anxiety going on. I would absolutely recommend her, and would use her again in the future when I need a helping hand! 🐾”
About: I’ve taken care of many different pets growing up, cats, dogs, bunnies, etc. I own a Husky and a Leopard Gecko, so I am also very experienced in animal care of many different kinds. I am also going into wildlife rehabilitation, so a few of my volunteering work skills are very helpful in caring for all kinds of animals ᵕ̈ I am currently working part-time, however shifts at my job are scarce during the summer so I will have tons of free-time to take care of any pets that need attention ᵕ̈ I have one friendly puppy who can keep your animals company if they need to stay here, I am also able to drive to any home to care for your babies in their own comfort.
“Natalie has been awesome on stop in visits with our puppy Winnie! She’s super reliable, gives great updates, and Winnie absolutely loves her visits. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in good hands while we’re at work. Highly recommend!”
“We couldn't ask for a more reliable and caring person and will definitely book with them again! Loved the photos, our dog was so happy. Allowed us to enjoy the wedding we went to.”
“First time using Rover in a pinch! Kelly was wonderful with our two toy poodles. We were gone all week and Kelly took them out, did walks and lots of snuggles! They loved her and it was obvious in the pics she sent! We’ve already booked her for another time!”
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats growing up. I always take care of other animals like i treat my own, if not better. Monday and Tuesday I work 12-4 so I can watch your furry friends before or after. My schedule varies but I'm really flexible. I take care of 3 cats and help out with 3 dogs. I help with other people's animals whenever I can. I have 3 cats. I have toys that my cats can play with and an open area for them to run around. I love dogs, I had a family pit growing up and I loved her. I would throw a stick or ball for her to get, we had fun.
“Emily did such a great job taking care of our cat while we were away! She put lots of care into making sure he had everything he needed and sent us lots of cute videos of him. I felt my cat was happy and safe while I was gone. I would definitely book Emily again next time! 🤍🤍”
About: I have been caring for animals my entire life, growing up with two dogs and learning the responsibility and love that comes with pet care from a young age. My experience includes caring for dogs of different ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I have also helped rescue and rehome dogs, giving me experience with animals from different backgrounds and personalities. I have worked with basic training, positive reinforcement, and understanding dog behavior. I am comfortable reading body language and recognizing when a pet may feel nervous, excited, overwhelmed, or in need of extra care. Above all, I truly love animals and enjoy creating a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I am self-employed and work from home part time, so my schedule is very flexible and it allows me to adjust my availability as needed. I think each animal has a different personality, so it depends on the pet behavior. I like to observe and analyze behaviors, to figure out what approach works best. I am a very empathetic person in general, I am good at respecting animals boundaries when needed. I am enthusiastic and love to be around animals in general.
About: I've had a love for animals my entire life. I grew up in the country, and with that I have had many experiences with all kinds of animals, big and small. At one point in high school, I worked on a farm milking cows and tending calves. I've watched many of my friends' animals, dogs and cats mainly, and I have my own cat at home. I've worked in many different care giving jobs, from nannying to being a care attendant for older adults. I've also volunteered many times at the animal shelter and worked at my friend's dog bar. If you're looking for a space where your animal will be loved as they are at home, this is the one for you! I'm currently a student and part-time worker. I graduate this May, where I will be transitioning into the corporate world. I spend most of my days at home (often times leaving the house once or twice a week), as I do school and work most days at home. I'm someone who believes in taking care of an animal as you would a human. This means having a clean environment, enriching activities, playing with them often, and giving them the same quality of food I'd want. I am attentive, aware, and caring when it comes to animals, and I believe in meeting their needs at the highest level possible. My own animal being a great example.
“Abe was fantastic! I was a little nervous about our first experience with Rover, but Abe far exceeded my expectations. He was very thorough with sending photos and our dog took to him instantly. Would definitely recommend!”
“Kristen was great as we requested her assistance last minute. She was very communicative and loving towards our 2 cats. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking and will definitely use her again.”
“Elisa has been fantastic with our new puppy Lucy. We’ve been having her do 2 drop-in visits per day to help with potty training and to work with her when our daughters get home from school. She has provided very detailed updates and has been extremely responsive.”
“We couldn’t recommend Autumn more! She sent us multiple pictures & detailed updates. She went out of her way to watch our pets and took the extra mile to make sure they were well taken care of while we were out of town.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and they have always been a big part of my family. I currently have a sweet Yorkie Poo and a gentle Newfoundland, and I truly believe every dog has their own personality, needs, and little quirks that make them special. I have over 5 years of professional dog grooming experience, which has taught me so much about dog behavior, body language, handling, and how to make dogs feel comfortable and safe. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors in all sizes. I also have experience with dogs who need extra patience and care, including dogs recovering from procedures and blind dogs. Besides walks, daycare, and boarding, I can also offer basic maintenance care, such as brushing, baths, nail trimming and grinding, ear cleaning, and teeth brushing, feet - paw and face trimming. I love going on long walks (usually two one-hour walks a day with my own dogs), and I’d love to give your pup the same attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for like they’re part of the family. Our day includes two long walks, usually around 8:30 AM and 5 PM to avoid peak heat. We enjoy walks, park visits, playtime, cuddles and enrichment activities throughout the day. I provide a safe, calm home environment with supervision throughout the day. I’m home most of the time, offer structured walks and playtime, and have crates available if dogs need quiet time or separation. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs receive plenty of outdoor exercise through secure walks and nearby park visits. I also have experience handling different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities.
“Samantha has been taking care of this little fur family in various forms for a couple years now. I always feel confident that she is making sure they are getting what is needed and all the snuggles. Thank you!”
“Sara has been very good with Brewtus!! He's a puppy and isn't trained all the way just yet. She plays with him and he goes potty for her. No accidents while he is waiting for us to come home after she's been here! So happy ?”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 5,421 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Medina. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Medina 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.
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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Medina with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
