“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!”
“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!”
About: Hello, Pet Parents. My name is Cory, and I'm going to tell you a bit about myself! I've always been involved with animals in my life and have had many pets! I've had 3 dogs, mice, hamsters, and even a frog! Not only have I had pets, but I've had past experiences with pets and pet owners, and here are some as follows! ————————————————————— Experience: Worked for an adoption center where I took care of dogs and cats. Dog walking Pet sitting Many animal based classes Currently working at a board and train facility Training/Fostering a soon to be police dog that will be stationed at a middle school and helping with tracking cases ————————————————————— If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask! I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your fuzzy little friends whenever needed! I'll always talk to you about openings in my schedule that fit with yours! I have a couple pets, a Sheprador which is a German Shepherd and Labrador mix named George, and a hamster named Baba. I feed my dog George twice a day making sure to let him outside right after, I regularly brush him because he just doesn't stop shedding, I wash him every other month so he doesn't get stinky, give him all of his medication for his allergies, and just giving him constant attention such as walks! Baba gets fed once a day with a healthy balance of veggies, fruits, seeds, and original food. I clean his cage every 1 to 2 weeks depending how it looks and/or if it stinks, and finally I regularly take him out of his cage to pet him and let him run around in his ball! George and Baba get along haha! Plus a new member being Chunk a little lab puppy!
“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: About Sierra 🐾 Hi! I’m Sierra, a caring, responsible, and dependable pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat your pets with patience, love, and plenty of attention. I’m open to dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting! I enjoy getting dogs outside for walks, exercise, playtime, and fresh air. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get the care and attention they need. I currently work full-time, but I have regular days off, shorter workdays, and weekends available for pet care. I also have help at home when needed, so your pets can receive plenty of attention and care while I’m away. I live in an apartment with dog parks nearby, as well as dog-friendly spaces within my apartment community. I’m happy to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and lots of attention based on your pet’s individual needs. My goal is to make sure every pet I care for feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their family is away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! 🐶🐱❤️ I am currently working full time but I do get time off and short day and weekends off if needed and I also do have help at home who would be able to look after the pets while I’m working and I live about 2 minutes away from my job so I can always go home in needed! I do live in a apartment but there are dog parks near me that I can take them to and dogs parks in my apartment complex they will be fully taken care of
About: I've been caring for pets for 6 years, and animals have been a huge part of my life even longer. I currently own a cat myself, and I've fostered cats of all kinds too, so I understand the different personalities, needs, and quirks that come with pets, whether they're playful, shy, senior, or high-energy. I treat every pet I sit for with the same patience and attention I give my own pets at home, making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their parents are away. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am available on weekends and all weekday afternoon and evenings (I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings). Since I only provide care in my clients' homes, I make it a priority to keep their space safe, secure, and exactly as I found it. I always confirm entry instructions, alarm codes, and any house rules before the first visit, and I double-check that doors, gates, and windows are secure whenever I leave. I follow each pet's routine closely: feeding times, medication, litter box or potty schedules, so there's no disruption to their normal life. I also send updates and photos during visits so owners have peace of mind while they're away, and I treat every home with the same respect and care I'd want for my own.
About: I get along with every dog I interact with. Though I don’t have a dog of my own, I treat others dogs like they are and care for them as such. I am a part time nanny all day Thursdays and for a couple of hours mid day on Wednesdays and Fridays. Every other day I am completely available! I make sure to give my cats the best care in my own home as well as others homes. I will always do what needs to be done to have the pets have the best experiences
“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! 🐾”
“Sara was great with our cats and was on time for all meet and greets and visits. She communicated with us when things came up, and even did an emergency extra visit (we did pay her!!) when our cats knocked over their automatic feeder.”
About: I have several years of dog and house-sitting experience through word-of-mouth referrals, caring for pets during trips ranging from a few days to a week and a half. I strive to find what works for each pet as an individual. I have experience caring for elderly dogs, administering oral medication, and working with multiple pets. I’ve cared for a range of dogs—from picky eaters and nervous, anxious dogs that preferred a consistent schedule and energetic dogs with mischievous streaks. Working with such different dogs has helped me become flexible and responsive to a wide range of temperaments and care requirements. Past clients have repeatedly trusted me with their pets and homes, and many have returned for additional bookings. Through these experiences, I have followed detailed care instructions, monitored pets for changes in behavior, provided excercise and affection, maintained a safe environment, and communicated reliably with owners. This means that when a situation is worrisome, I will err on the side of caution as well as informing you. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away and for you to feel secure your pets are safe and in responsible, good hands. As a college student home for the summer, I’m currently working part-time, and my hours are somewhat inconsistent (with a trend towards more availability in the evenings), however taking time off would be no problem for me should it be required, given there’s sufficient advance notice. When caring for pets in a client's home, I always prioritize following any provided instructions and established routines. In this respect, I especially appreciate detailed care notes, as they help me provide the most consistent and personalized care possible. Every pet is different, and I believe clients know their pets best. At the same time, I use good judgment and common-sense safety practices to ensure pets remain safe, healthy, and comfortable while their parents are away. I am patient, attentive, and observant, and I make it a priority to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and needs. Whatever that means, I aim to adapt my care to what will help each pet feel most at ease. I also value staying in contact with pet parents throughout their time away, as much as their availability and preferences allow. Regular updates help provide peace of mind to everyone, and if any questions or unexpected situations arise, I can communicate promptly so clients stay informed and involved in decisions regarding their pet's care. My goal is to create a safe and familiar environment where pets can thrive and clients can feel confident that their pets and homes are being well cared for.
About: I love to care for dogs of all ages! I’ve had dogs my whole life and my family calls me a “dog whisperer” because animals are always attracted to my calm demeanor I work full time as a chiropractor. My main availability is Tuesdays (all day), Friday afternoons and weekends. Also occasional week day evenings after 6pm. Happy to walk your dog wherever they like best! I also frequent many trails in the area and love to bring them there for something to see.
“Courtney was a wonderful caregiver for Buddy while we were out of town for a long weekend. Buddy had clearly been well looked after. Calm, mellow and happy when we returned! We look forward to having Courtney look after Buddy again.”
About: We have had dogs our entire lives, and currently have two adorable shih tzus. We have had Cuddle for 15 years and Peanut for 8. We would have five more dogs if we could. We have been fostering for Underdog Rescue for the past seven years and have experience with both little puppies and senior citizen pups. We have a house in the Minnetonka/Hopkins area and have a large fenced in backyard that your dog would enjoy! We always hate being away from our dogs, so we know how important their care is while you're away! I currently work from home, so I’ll be able to give your pups plenty of attention throughout the day with plenty of potty breaks and playtime in the backyard yard. We have a large, fenced-in backyard and currently have three small dogs, two senior Shih Tzus and a 1 year old Pekingese. We also foster dogs through Underdog Rescue, and two of our dogs are foster fails! 🐶
“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!”
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.

As of September 2026, there are 5,448 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Medina. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Medina stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 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 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. 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 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.
