About: I have been a dog sitter for my friends and family for years as well as having my own. Anyone who knows me knows that I love animals and dogs more than anything. I am currently a college student home for the summer so as long as I am not at my part time job I am available any weekends or weekdays to spend time with your pup! I live in a rural neighborhood and have a very friendly lab to keep your pup company! I am able to accommodate any requests for your home or dog as well.
About: Hi! I’m Rylinn, and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for 8+ years for family and neighbors who consistently trust me with their pets. I treat every animal like my own and prioritize safety, routine, and comfort. I’ve cared for pets for over 8 years and can provide references upon request. I’m comfortable with: • Walks & playtime • Feeding schedules • Basic medications • Anxious or reactive pets • Photo updates every I attend Cleveland state university and work a part time job at the dairy queen in north olmstead. Message me anytime! I’d love to meet you and your pet! I currently attend Cleveland State University and I work sporadically throughout the week. I am available anytime in between just message me, If the booking is more than 2 weeks in advance I can also adjust my work schedule to work around it! I prefer to take care of pets in their own homes to help them feel more comfortable. I’m willing to take animals to mine if needed but prefer not to.
“Mikayla is great with my three pups. I appreciate her flexibility and willingness to work with my schedule to make sure the dogs were cared for. She does a great job managing three pups and is very dependable.”
“Abigail did an outstanding job during her drop-in visit with our two pups. Since it was her first time caring for them, we especially appreciated how punctual, communicative, and attentive she was. She spent quality time with them, made sure they got some exercise, and ensured they took care of their potty break. It was clear she genuinely cared about their well-being. We were very pleased with her service and will definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommended!”
“Taylor was so great with my Cleo! She was available on short notice and was willing to meet us prior to going away for a few days. I was really worried how Cleo would react, he is an older dog and protective, but she handled him so very well! Thank so much Taylor! I will be reaching out again!”
About: I have a love for both dogs and cats. I have far more experience with cats since I’ve always had a cat growing up and to this day. I know exactly what to do for cats and what they need. For dogs, I’ll just need a checklist / reminder of what you need me to do and I’ll do it! I will play, feed, and take your dog out when needed! Pet care fits into my daily routine as my first priority. As soon as I’m awake I’ll take care of myself then be on my way to attend your animals and their needs. Just let me know their needs and I will do all that I’m told. Seeing animals throughout my day automatically makes it a good day! I care my own cat by making sure she has food/water and playing with her throughout the day everyday. I make sure her litter box is taken care of as well. I plan to do the same for your animals. I love playing with cats and dogs both and I have a soft heart for animals 🩵.
“Just wanted to say nothing but the best !!! Was a little nervous leaving my babies with someone i didn't know but Kerry made it easy not to worry went on a 3 day trip and my boys are a little shy and scared of people they dont know but by their second visit you couldn't tell the boys loved them. Would 100% have Kerry watch in on my boys on our next trip and future trips we take. Kerry you and your partner are the best ! Thank you for being so good to our boys !!!”
“Michelle walked our shy beagle twice now. She is so patient and kind towards her. She even fit Letty in the same day. Michelle is very responsive when you message her. She will always reply in a timely manner. We absolutely be booking Michelle again! Thank you!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I currently have a yellow lab, Ranger, who will be turning three in September—he’s truly my whole world! I’ve raised him since he was a puppy and have put a lot of time and care into his training, so I understand how important consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement are. I also have a 4-month-old puppy, River, so I’m very familiar with the energy, attention, and structure that puppies need. In addition to my own dogs, I’ve taken in foster dogs over the years, which has given me experience working with a wide range of personalities—from playful pups to senior dogs who need a gentler approach. Daily walks are one of my favorite activities, and I love making sure dogs get the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a reliable sitter, or someone patient and experienced, I will treat them like my own—with lots of love, care, and attention to their unique needs. I’d love to meet your pup! I work a 8-5 so I could walk before work at anytime. I could also walk at 6 or 7 during the week after work! I love a morning walk with a pal. With a lab I know all about it a ton of energy and how to handle it. We have worked a ton on leash and he is 60 lbs.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. I currently have 4 dogs and 1 cat and a fish! I lost my 15 year old dog recently that I took care of her medical needs for 2 years she had congestive heart failure I’m currently working part time for myself so I have lots of free time to drop in and walk and care for dogs and cats! I will make sure your pets are safe and happy when I care for them. I feel that loving them like my own is very important!
About: Hi pet parents! I'm Morgan and I'm currently a pet mama to two horses and a cat. I've had a love for animals my entire life and have experience caring for all kinds. I grew up in 4-H and work for a well-known pet retailer, so animals have always been a big part of my world. I recently lost my own dog to cancer, which gave me first hand experience caring for a pet with special needs. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust, and I'll care for your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I'd want for my own. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just needs some extra company, I'm here to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I have a list of references if needed and also provide pet sitting/drop ins/ etc. for horses and large animals. I am able to be reached at any time of the day so don’t hesitate to give me a call. I am a busy body when it comes to my pets. Aside from caring for my two pups, I can usually be found in the barn feeding, brushing, or doing horse stalls. I am hyper-vigilant about making sure pets are leashed and safely secured. I’m also always on the look out for potential safety issues and prefer to keep collars off of pets that get crated just in case.
“Pierre was amazing! I put in a last minute request for Pierre’s drop in services during the holidays and he quickly responded. He sent multiple pictures per visit with my kittens being feed and litter boxes cleaned daily! He even grabbed my packages and placed them inside for me. Thank you, Pierre!”
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I work full time, so evenings during the week work best and my availability is flexible on the weekends. I am more than happy to discuss more! My services will be suited for the clients’ need. I will discuss with you on how to care for pets before the booked appointment. You will know exactly where your pet is at all times.
About: Hi! I’m Megan, a stay-at-home mom with a lifelong love for animals. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, whether you’re heading to work or taking a vacation, so my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, and I understand that every pet has different needs. Whether your furry family member loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. As someone who spends most of my time at home, I have a flexible schedule and can provide lots of companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and updates throughout the day. I know how reassuring it is to receive photos and messages while you’re away, so I’ll happily keep you updated on how your pet is doing. My priorities are safety, patience, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I believe every animal deserves kindness, consistency, and lots of love. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and provide plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and daycare on most weekdays and weekends. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine and provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, love, and plenty of updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every booking. I provide a calm, loving environment, closely supervise all interactions, and follow your instructions carefully. Because I have young children, I only accept friendly pets that are comfortable around kids, and I always recommend a meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure everyone is a great fit.
About: I treat every pet like family, not just a client. Early mornings, late nights, weekends— I work around your schedule. You’ll always know how your pet is doing with fun photos! I work part time at an assisted living facility here in Lakewood (20 hours at most) so I’ve got lots of time for play and snuggles Before any booking, I schedule a meet and greet to make sure the fit is right for everybody involved. I stick to routines and give one on ones with each pet in the home!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Medina
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! She came to my house while I was working a long day, let my dog out, fed her, and even spent time playing with her in the yard. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog wasn’t stuck inside all day and was getting attention, exercise, and lots of love. She was professional, reliable, and wonderful to work with from start to finish. I will absolutely be using her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my girl!
Cheryl is absolutely Amazing!! Lola LOVES her and so do I. Her drop in visits this last time, were requested literally the evening before I needed her. She responded within 90 minutes and accepted. Lola was ill and needed frequent potty breaks. It alleviated my concern about Lola's comfort during the daytime while I was at work. Cheryl always plays with Lola, spends time sitting with her and changes her water, even if she isn't required to feed her; just on a drop in visit. Lola and Leo love having her stay overnight when I am out of town. Cheryl is extremely attentive to them both. She plays with them and cuddles; which they both love a great deal. She is very thoughtful of me as well, and she sends pictures the entire time, so I know what is happening. I never worry that they are lonely or not eating when they are in her care. Cheryl keeps a key to my home at all times. In the event that I have an emergency and need to leave town or can't make it home to care for my pets, I can contact her. She has access and can take care of my fur babies. She is a Treasure!!
Katie is absolutely amazing. She took such great care of my dogs over the New Year, including multiple visits per day — and even came out during a blizzard without hesitation. Communication was excellent, I felt completely at ease while I was away, and it was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. My dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable when I got home. I’m so grateful for her reliability, kindness, and dedication, especially over a holiday. I would 100% recommend Katie to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter and will absolutely be using her again.
We are so happy that we chose Claudia to drop-in on our two senior dogs for afternoon breaks! One of our dogs needs a little extra TLC and Claudia provided just that. She sent updates and photos each day, making us feel at ease knowing that they were being loved and cared for while we were away. We highly recommend Claudia!
Katherine was amazing! Great communication and attention to detail. My large breed puppies were very comfortable were her presence and bonded with her almost immediately. Feeding details and visit requirements followed precisely. I was extremely confident my pups were in good hands. I will definitely use Katherine again and would highly recommend her to any other dog owner!

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.

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.

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.
