About: I love dogs and cats, I am a big animal fan and have always been. i enjoy going on walks and being super active.I am saving up for my dream dog a shiba inu for the future when I get my own place to call home. id love to enjoy having the experience of lightening up you and your furry friends day! I am currently working on a school so through out the day I would like some outside time to enjoy the weather or just help get energy out. I have 2 cats i love dearly and i am a very visual person. I can sometimes pickup when something is wrong or notice specific signs.
“My two kitties loved their time with Katurah while I was away. The pictures and report card were so cute! Katurah was super responsive and kept me updated my whole trip. I really appreciate her communication, and reliability. Will use again for sure for peace of mind :)”
“Jo was truly AMAZING! I felt so comfortable with the care she provided for my senior cat while we were away on vacation. Jo was great about keeping us informed with detailed messages on how our cat was doing and everything was done as asked. I could honestly tell our cat felt safe and comfortable in Jo 's care. I highly recommend her to anyone to care for your pet .”
“Makaila was absolutely fantastic watching our cat for five days. Our cat is a rescue stray, off the streets, and is very skittish. She went above and beyond to try to make friends and to put my cat at ease. She was on time, super friendly, made sure to do a meet and greet before the scheduled pet sitting, and made sure my cat was well fed, and played ball with her. Truly can’t recommend her enough! Your pet is in wonderful hands with her!”
“Kevisha was very kind and sweet to our Jax. Always on time and took pictures to let us know he was walked and fed and happy. Definitely gave us peace of mind when we were traveling!”
“Erica was amazing! We set up a meet and greet and our cat is very selective of who he immediately goes up to and he wasted no time meeting her. We were able to enjoy our trip and not worry at all if our cat was cared for and well taken care of! Will be using her again! We really appreciated the amount of pictures she sent us.”
“Jennifer dropped in and fed my two kitties. She was prompt, sent me photos of how they were doing, and did additional duties such as litter box cleaning. I felt at ease while out on travel, knowing that my kitties were taken care of so lovingly.”
“i was looking for someone to drop in on my 2 labs 3x a day in the evening hours and was lucky enough to find donavyn just around the corner - my labs took to him right away - donavyns experience with larger dogs really put my mind at ease as larger dogs can be a handful for those who haven’t experienced larger breeds- he’s was prompt for all visits, spent a good amount of time exercising my dogs in the yard even when the weather was chilly, he spent quality cuddle time each visit with both dogs and sent lots of pictures while i was gone - if your looking for someone responsible and trustworthy to watch over your animals i would highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate calling donavyn - i’ll definitely be calling on him again for future visits.”
“We were so blessed to have Lidia. She made everything so much easier for us to be away and know we could count on her. She got some of the cutest pictures of Peanut. I was so anxious when we boarded her last year.”
About: 👋🏻 Hello, dear pet parents! Leaving your pet is never easy — I know that feeling well. That’s why I’ve built a care experience where your dog or cat gets the same routine, attention, and comfort they’re used to at home. 👤 My name is Maria. I’ve built this as a real service — with structure, clear policies, and consistent standards. I don’t have a dog of my own yet, and pet sitting has become my way of staying close to that daily routine and care in the meantime. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior dogs — my calm, one-on-one format tends to work especially well for older pets and those who need a little extra patience. ✨ What makes my care different? • One family at a time. Your pet gets my full attention, without sharing space with unfamiliar animals; • I’m home most of the day. I work remotely, so your pet has company and a calm environment throughout the day; • Fully insured + real-time GPS tracking during every walk; • A Petcube camera lets me keep an eye on your pet even when I step out — live feed and two-way audio, day or night, for extra peace of mind; • Personalized updates, your way — regular photos and videos, or simple morning & evening check-ins; • Care built around your pet’s routine, learned in advance so the transition feels smooth. 🕐 Daycare & Boarding Hours Daycare typically runs between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM, with a maximum of 10 hours per booking. Extended pick-up times later in the evening may shift into boarding rates — happy to discuss what works for your schedule. Boarding works differently: it’s booked in full 24-hour cycles starting from your drop-off time. Exact drop-off and pick-up times are always coordinated with you in advance. 🌙 A small neighborhood note: quiet hours run from 10:00 PM to 9:00 AM. Early morning drop-offs and pick-ups are welcome — I just ask that high-energy playtime wait until after quiet hours end. 🔔 A few important details: • I accept only fully house-trained dogs and litter-trained cats; • Pets are fed only the food and treats you provide. If your pet refuses to eat and we need a plan B, I’ll always check with you first; • Before a first stay, I’ll send a short intake form — please have your pet’s vaccination records handy (Rabies, DHPP, Bordetella). It’s how I keep my home safe for every guest; • If a pet has had any respiratory symptoms, I wait a full week after they’ve cleared before hosting — the same care I’d want taken before your pet arrives; • I’m not able to accommodate reactive dogs over 40 lbs or pets showing aggression toward people or other animals — I want every walk to feel safe for your pet and for me; • Puppies and pets needing extra support (medication, mobility assistance, lifting onto furniture) are +$10 per night or day, as they need more hands-on time. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family — not just another booking — I’d love to meet them. Feel free to message me with any questions 🐾 🗓 My availability: Monday–Saturday, and occasionally Sundays by request. Since I work remotely, pet care fits naturally into my day. I’m generally flexible — feel free to reach out to discuss your specific schedule. 🦮 My home: I live on the ground floor with a patio opening onto a shared green area, plus easy access to nearby parks. No stairs, easy outdoor access, calm walks tailored to your pet’s pace and needs.
About: (*Please be a smoke-free home for overnights - unfortunately I get asthmatic and have very bad physical reactions to smoke*) I've cared for my sister's dog while she is on vacation, and have several years caring for animals. Part-time, I care for 2 Jack Russell's and a Shorkie - the owners would be happy to recommend my services. I own a cat Allie, and she is treated like a queen, as should be any animal I would be caring for. Animals deserve the greatest love, attention and affection, and I consider them such a high priority. I have a semi flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to devote to the care of your fur babies, in your home, and while you are away. In the Meet & Greet, I will listen very intently for your animal (s) needs, and take detailed instruction on leash requirements, procedures, special requests, etc. Thank you, Nicole (Nicki) I am self-employed and therefore, flexible. I do watch my 3 doggies from 10:30-2:30 Monday through Friday, but otherwise have roughly 10 hours of drafting plans for an Architect. Those hours are also, quite flexible. I can accommodate your needs for overnight stays, medicines, play. While I prefer a fenced yard, I can accommodate on a leash if we are not going too far.
“Leah took the best care of my two fur babies! She fed them and played with them during her drop in visits everyday! Love the photo updates! StinkerBelle and Josey were happy (and Josey doesn’t come out for anyone — she came out for Leah!). Thank you!!! ?”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Middleburg Heights
We had a very good experience with Makaila. She was friendly, professional, reliable, and took great care of our cats. Most importantly, our cats really liked her and were comfortable in her care. She kept us updated and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely recommend her and would be happy to have her care for our cats again.
My two kitties loved their time with Katurah while I was away. The pictures and report card were so cute! Katurah was super responsive and kept me updated my whole trip. I really appreciate her communication, and reliability. Will use again for sure for peace of mind :)
Dena took such good care of our 19 year old kitty, Shultzie while we were on vacation. She was very dependable with on time check ins and his meds plus some play time and photos. We definitely recommend her and will call on her again the next time we go out of town! It's so nice not to have to worry about the care of your furr baby when you are away!
Margaret was fantastic! She checked on our two cats while we were on an international trip. Her thorough reports + photos made us feel comfortable that our guys were in great hands while we were away. Extremely reliable, communicative and will absolutely be rebooking in the future!
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!

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 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.

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 Meet & Greet .
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.
