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.
“Kate took great care of my puppy! She stayed extra time to make sure Q got plenty of playtime and sent a bunch of adorable photos. We will definitely be booking Kate to puppy sit again!”
About: I have taken care of both cats and dogs in my home and others homes. I have experience with elderly and sick dogs who need medication and extra care. I have a flexible work schedule and a 9 year old son who will love to play with your pet too! I work a hybrid schedule and have a lot of flexibility during the week and a ton on the weekend!! Please just let me know what you need. Your pet will be doted on and loved the whole time!! I am gentle and loving with all animals and will treat him or her as my own.
About: I have a husky and gray cat in our home now. I specialize in safe, caring, clean and honest services. Puppies and senior animals welcome. I’m the sole provider and semi retired and like to keep active walking and caring for animals. My honesty, care and cleanliness set me apart from other caregivers you may consider I have a fenced yard for our husky and vacuum the house daily. He gets 1-3 long walks daily and I always pick up the poop and dispose of it correctly. Our cat rules the house and she gets lots of play time. We clean the litter box 2-3 times weekly and feed her dry and wet food.
About: Hey there! I’m Kristen. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was in elementary school! I have experience taking care of and owning small and large dog breeds, cats, and even farm animals like goats, pigs, turkeys and cows! I also worked at a local public alpaca farm, Majestic Meadows, and provided love, care and husbandry for a variety of exotic and farm animals, including horses, donkeys, alpacas, llamas, and more! I have experience working with animals who have special dietary needs, special medication needs, senior pets, and pets who have physical disabilities and need extra care and aid! I can brush your pet, clean their ears and teeth (if they will let me and it is safe to do so), and give them a simple bath if you would like! Lastly I do have experience in basic behavior training for dogs, including click/reward training to teach sitting, lay down, and release, however I am NOT a professional dog trainer and am not willing to sit for dogs that experience highly aggressive behaviors or biting towards new people. I am currently doing Rover full time, so I will have plenty of time for your pets needs and for playtime, and am able to make sure that bathroom breaks and meal/snack times are not spaced too far apart :) For house sitting I cannot stay full time around the clock as I often have doctors appointments I need to attend, so I may have to come and go, but I would not be gone for longer than 3-4 hours at any given time, so if your fur baby can be alone for 3-4 hours, then I can accommodate for that 😊 I make sure to closely follow any given instructions for pet care, including instructions for a special diet or medications, and if the pet needs any special needs care or aid with grooming! I like to go over the details with clients of how their pet may like to play, how they get along with other animals/people, how they like to be pet, how they do on walks, what their favorite snacks are, and of course any special needs such as oral medications, special dietary needs, etc… to make sure that I am offering the highest quality of care and comfortability for their fur baby! I also make sure to pay close attention to timing between meals, snacks and potty breaks so their pets don’t become uncomfortable or have any accidents. Lastly, I make sure to give lots of love and attention to their pet so they don’t feel lonely!
“Jenna was absolutely amazing with our dogs! She was so kind and patient with them and took awesome care of them while we were out of town. Our dogs tend to be a little nervous but she was so patient and kind with them and they warmed up so quick to her! She is so reliable and it was such a relief to know that my pups were in good hands. Thank you Jenna!! You’re the best!”
“Gracie is amazing! We will definitely be booking her drop-in services again for our 3 dogs. She came over before our trip to meet our pups and get a run down of their routine. Then at each drop-in visit, we got an update and great photos! Gracie is reliable, trustworthy, and there's no doubt she loves dogs! Five stars! Highly recommend!”
“Deb was exactly what we needed as we went out of town. She stopped in to feed and let our dog out. She communicated well, gave updates and pictures and Rocco made a new friend! She followed all our requests and I would definitely recommend her. Her kindness and professionalism was appreciated.”
“AnnaClaire is an AMAZING sitter!! I’m so happy I found her. She took such great care of my 6 month old puppy. She sent me so many pictures and gave me updates while I was out for the evening! I felt so comfortable with her caring for my puppy!! Highly recommend and will definitely use her again!”
“Nevaeh was punctual and she took good care of our pets. The shy one actually went up to her for a sniff of her hand. She followed the daily routine and sent daily communications at visit times. I highly recommend her. Thank you Nevaeh.”
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.
“Samantga did a fantastic job with our girls! Everything was handled just as I had requested and she was always ontime. Thank you for our get away without having to worry about the pups ? ?”
“It was so nice to find Annette to take care of our beautiful Skylar. She stayed in communication to let us know how it was going, took great photos n played with Skylar. I would definitely hire her again.”
About: I've had pets most of my life. I've cared for big dogs and little dogs. This includes potty training, walking, baths, ear cleaning, and nail trimming. I've also administered medications in pill, liquid, and shots. I've cared for puppies, middle aged, and seniors and know the unique needs at each life stage. I currently work full time, but my wife does not work, so we have lots of time to care for your pet. I am available almost all weekends. I have a full fenced in yard with a 4 foot chain link fence. The fence has been "small dog" proof to ensure no escapees. We have 10 dogs, but all are super friendly and get along well with others. We also have tons of toys, chew bones, and beds throughout the house.

Another fantastic experience! She was able to accept my booking at the last minute and still went above and beyond taking care of my dog. She was reliable, caring, and made sure my girl was well taken care of. I really appreciate her flexibility and the excellent care she provided. I’ll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!
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!

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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
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.
