“We’ve had such a great experience with Katie caring for our puppy! I’d recommend Katie to anyone looking for a kind, caring and dependable dog sitter! I know our pup is always well cared for when we’re at work. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pet like family, she’s the one!”

“This was our first time booking with Amanda and she was very communicative and provided great updates! Our cats seemed to really like her which is also a plus. She even went back a third day (that wasn’t initially scheduled) because one of our cats got into their food bag which was extremely helpful.”

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 Debbie! I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly believes dogs are family. ❤️ While I’m new to professional dog walking, I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in a variety of situations. I’ve had dogs for many years, cared for my sister’s dogs, helped with the arrival of multiple litters of puppies, and have experience caring for senior dogs. I’ve also recently fostered dogs and regularly walk dogs at my local animal shelter, where I get to spend time with dogs of different personalities, ages, energy levels, and backgrounds. I especially have a soft spot for rescue dogs and love helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog is different. Some pups want an energetic adventure and lots of exploring, while others—including senior dogs—may need a slower pace, extra patience, or a little more TLC. I’m happy to meet your dog where they are and give them the individual attention they need. I genuinely love being outdoors, hiking, walking, and spending time in nature, so getting outside with a dog is something I truly enjoy—not just a job. My goal is for your dog to get exercise, attention, companionship, and plenty of love while you’re away. And I’m a cat lover, too! 🐱 I currently have cats of my own and would be happy to provide cat drop-in visits as well. Whether they need food, fresh water, a clean litter box, playtime, or simply some company and attention, I’m happy to help. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. Their safety, happiness, and comfort will always come first. ❤️🐾 My work schedule changes from week to week, so I don’t have the same days off every week. I keep my Rover calendar updated with my available days and times, so what you see on my calendar reflects my current availability. If you have a specific date in mind that isn’t showing as available, feel free to message me and I’ll see what I can do! 🐶🐱❤️ Trust means everything when someone is caring for your pets and entering your home. I don’t take that trust lightly. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pets with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Safety always comes first. I’ll follow your instructions, stay attentive to your pets, make sure doors and gates are secure, and be mindful of their individual needs and surroundings. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your furry family members are doing while you’re away. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk or stopping in to care for your cat, my goal is simple: keep them safe, happy, comfortable, and loved—and leave you with peace of mind. 🐶🐱❤️

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and couldn’t imagine a life without them. I spent 2 years working at a doggy daycare and then decided to go to school to become a dog trainer! If you would like any information on training, that can definitely be discussed! I am also Pet First Aid and CPR certified. While I do take dog training clients throughout the week, I have a pretty open and flexible schedule so I’ll have plenty of time for your furry friends! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a run and a great neighborhood for walks! Whether your home or mine, I will always abide by your wishes. For example, if your pet is staying at my house and you do not what them on furniture, I will definitely make sure I stick to that for you!

About: I’ve had animals all my life! Mostly dogs but I’ve added a cat to my family and my sister has some bunnies. I’m the girl at the party who immediately finds the animal in the house and bonds with it!! I can’t add another pet to my clan but I’d love to spend some time with your sweet pet!! I work from home all week and get off work at noon on Fridays. I cannot take animals to my house but I have no problem traveling. Before taking care of an animal, I like to go to the house and meet the animal with the owners present. Then I can see how they behave at the house and get a run down of the do’s and don’ts

About: I have been taking care of dogs most of my life. I am 57. I have done dog training and agility with 2 of our dogs. I have had a puppy and dealt with Senior dogs too. I love to give our dog lots of attention with play time, walking and outdoor activities. I love to take walks and go to other parks too. With the owner's permission, I love to go to the dog park-Bow Wow dog park and the Akron Dog Park. I give your furry one lots of attention with play time-throwing toys-playing fetch with a ball or toy. Letting them have backyard time. We have a fenced in back yard for the dogs to be free. I also will brush your dog and pet them and give them attention, while you are away. I will treat your dog like he/she is my own dog. Another place I will take dogs is Petsmart or Pet Supplies Plus for social interaction and exercise. I am at home and available most days. We have a 20 year-old Son, who also loves dogs! My Husband helps out too, with walks and letting the dogs out in our backyard and is a dog person. Currently, I am not working. I have a knee problem and some medical issues that prevent me from working full time. I have plenty of time to take care of your dog. We love to take walks and go to the dog parks. However, if you prefer your dog not to go to the dog park, that is fine. We could go on walks and let your dog go outside in our backyard. We have lots of dog toys, bones, balls, etc... I do have a walk thru pet gate that I set up to block off the kitchen and dining room area. We will feed our dog and your dog separately in separate rooms. I love to brush and pet dogs. If needed, we could bath your dog too. We are a "dog" type family, that is our preference. We have had fish, hamsters and also a guinea pig in the past. I grew up with a cat in our home, as a child. We will throw ball and toys for the dogs and play with your dog. We have a small crate that is in our garage, however we don't usually use the crate. If we leave the home, depending on the situation, if your dog is destructive or chewing on furniture or other items, then we will crate your dog when we leave for church or a short errand. If you have a calm dog and the dog is not destructive and well mannered, then your dog could stay in the family room area, unless you prefer that your dog is in his crate. We will use 2 dog gates near our steps to go upstairs. We prefer that our dog and other dogs do not go upstairs. As a House Sitter, I would do any needed cleaning up of any messes I make. I would be bringing my own food, as I am gluten free and dairy free. The only thing I would need is some freezer and frigerated space for my food. I would follow your normal routine for your dog or dogs. I do have occasional Dr and therapy appointments, fyi. We have a home in Akron, with a fence in our backyard. We live near a forest, it is a quiet area. We have a small neighborhood, where the street dead ends to a forest. We don't get drive thru traffic, that use our area as a "short cut".

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own and pay close attention to their routines, comfort, and emotional needs. Your babies will always feel safe, loved, and cared for with me. I have a very flexible schedule. I currently work part-time at a hospital every other weekend, which leaves most weekdays and evenings open for pet care. Because of this, I’m able to accommodate drop-ins, walks, and extended visits throughout the week. I really enjoy building pet care into my routine, and I’m able to adjust my schedule easily to meet the needs of each pet and their family. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and consistent environment. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, make sure they always have fresh water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love and attention. I also keep things clean and organized so pets feel comfortable and secure. I follow all instructions, keep up with feeding times, walks, meds, and any quirky habits their pet might have. In my home, pets get lots of affection, structure, and a peaceful environment where they’re treated like part of the family.

Lexie was such a great help and so friendly! She stopped in a couple times to check on my 3 dogs to ensure they could be let out and fed. I am so grateful to have found her, especially since it was last minute. I appreciated her stopping by to come meet us and the dogs prior to her visits. Definitely will be using her services in the future!!

Jamie continues to be the best kitty sitter! She loves my little baby like her own. My cat is very scared and shy. She can hiss and hide at times but she loves it when Jamie comes over. She sends me videos of her purring and happy. I’ve used Jamie for years and have only wonderful things to say ❤️❤️❤️

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.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Medina

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Medina is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $24 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,303 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Medina. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
