“Lina took to Maureen and Joshua immediately! They are kind and accommodating, and I feel confident my puppy is getting great care. So grateful to them for helping out over the holidays as well.”

About: Hello! I am an animal lover who has multiple years of care experience. I have a puppy so I am aware of the special care needs they may have. I also specialize in cats. I am flexible when it comes to cancellations and care times. I work second shift so I am able to provide care in the mornings or late at night. Late night care does not bother me, as I am a night owl! I am able to board, however I would prefer cats or small dogs. In my spare time I love to exercise, so I would love to take your pup on a long walk! I love animals, so rest assured your friend will be in loving, caring hands when you are away! I work overnights, so I am able to provide care in the mornings, during the day, and in evenings. I am flexible when I need to be! I reside in an apartment and have a large, unfenced yard. Perfect for supervised playtime! I have 2 friendly cats that would love to keep your pet company.
“James is the best!! He has taken care of my reactive, anxious, senior pup and my senior cat many times. I can comfortable travel internationally for over a week without any worries. My pets love James so much and he’s an amazing house guest. Can’t recommend him highly enough!”
“Christina has such a great personality. She was so warm and loving to our boy. While away Christina kept in communication and sent pictures as well. We were beyond grateful for her and will defiantly use her again in the future!”
“Lori did a wonderful job, appreciate her care taken for both my big Cane Corso and my little Belgian Malinois puppy. She walked them, got them out for play and they enjoyed all the treats! Will definitely request her again in the future.”
“Breon was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs! We read every review and they could not be more accurate; Breon has a warm, welcoming presence and she clearly loves what she does. Our dogs immediately took to her when we first met so we knew she would be a great fit. Her communication was excellent, which helped us feel so comfortable with her caring for the dogs. She sent such precious pictures during the walks and during their time hanging out together in the evenings. We also so appreciate Breon’s thoughtfulness in keeping our home tidy, such a nice touch that really helps you feel relaxed when you return home. We recommend her highly and will absolutely be having her stay with our pups in the future! Thank you Breon!!”
“Tiffany stayed at our house with our pup for a good week while we went on vacation and we could not be happier with her time with Phoebe!! We received pics everyday and had great communication…and our house was clean upon our return!! She is an excellent dog sitter and we will be calling on her again!”
“Kaylie is amazing and made sure to give lots of updates and photos. She was a fantastic sitter for my pup and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future!”
About: Over the past year, I’ve had the opportunity to care for several dogs and a cat with a variety of personalities and needs. I’ve cared for a Pitbull mix, Chihuahua, Australian Shepherd, a Terrier mix, and a Maine Coon cat. I’ve also been a pet parent to a Cane Corso/Lab mix, so I’m very comfortable around larger breeds and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and proper care. I’m comfortable giving medications and following specific care routines. I’ve provided medication for pets as well as my own, so I understand how important it is to be reliable and attentive when it comes to health needs. I truly love animals and enjoy getting to know their individual personalities. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away — treating them with the same attention and kindness I’d want for my own I am available Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for drop-ins, walks, pet care, and overnight stays. On weekdays, I work Monday–Friday from 8 AM–5 PM, but I am available for early morning visits between 6 AM–7:30 AM for feeding, medication, potty breaks, and walks, as well as evening care from 5:30 PM -8:30 PM I teach yoga on Mondays and Thursdays, so my availability on those days is limited. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s routine and find a schedule that works best. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, personality, and individual needs, including feeding routines, walks, medication, and any special instructions. I understand that pets can feel stressed when their people are away, so I provide a calm, patient presence and plenty of attention while respecting their home and environment. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From childhood through adulthood, I’ve regularly spent weeknights and weekends caring for pets of friends, family, and neighbors—feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. Whether it’s an energetic pup who needs exercise or a more relaxed companion who just wants company, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care—not just a quick check-in. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. In a client’s home, I stick to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and of course lots of love and attention. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos. If pets stay with me, I create a calm, safe space where they can relax and feel comfortable. I supervise closely, keep them on their usual schedule, and make sure they get plenty of interaction and care.
“Halle took such great of our dogs! She kept in touch with texts and photos multiple times a day. My husband and I felt so relaxed knowing our doggos were well taken care of. When we got home the dogs looked great and were so happy to see us; we knew we left them in good hands ( no cold shoulder).”
“Chloe did an excellent job during my 9 days away. She provided lots of updates, adorable photos, and had excellent communication! She had no issues navigating my dog’s medication schedule or need for multiple walks a day. I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting service!!”
“Alicia was great! I could tell from the pictures that our pups felt comfortable and at ease with her. When we came home, the dogs and cats all were happy to see us and were calm. I could tell she took excellent care of them because they were all happy and relaxed when we got home(and three of them have anxiety). Our house was clean and everything how we left it. 100% recommend to anyone looking for high quality care! Will definitely call her again for future pet sitting needs.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, I usually feed, walk, bathe, and even entertain my dogs, my friends dogs, and my family members dogs. I’ve helped train puppies before and have had to give medicine or specific treatment to dogs with certain needs. I’ve also taken care of Guinea pigs, hamsters, and a tortoise. I am currently a college student and have fostered multiple dogs while also taking care of my own dog by myself. First thing in the morning I let my dogs out then feed them and entertain them. I’ll clean my dogs ears, brush their teeth, bathe them when needed. Let them sleep and play and continue the process of letting them out Since my apartment does not have a yard, I take my dog out on a leash at least 4 times a day and may vary depending on her diet. She gets fed twice a day. In your own home I will respect how you take care of your dogs, and closely follow your rules. In my care, I will keep my eyes on them and take note of anything out of the ordinary, while giving you updates!
“Joylyn was the absolute best watching our dog. She was very communicative and really made us feel comfortable being away as we knew our dog was getting excellent care!”
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, and caring for them has always been a huge part of my life. From energetic puppies to senior dogs, I’ve had experience with dogs at all stages of life and have trained every dog I’ve owned. I’m patient, attentive, and believe every pet has their own personality and needs. I’ve also helped friends with their dogs, whether they needed some extra training, exercise, attention, or simply someone they could trust to care for their pets while they were away. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, and lots of love while you’re away. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you provide. My own dog, Lucy, is a big part of my life, and she’s taught me just how much personality and love our four-legged friends can bring into our lives. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and become their new BFF! 🐶❤️ I currently work part-time at Raising Cane’s, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. My shifts are generally 6–8 hours, and I’m able to provide pet care before and after work. I plan my schedule around my bookings so I can make sure every pet gets the attention and care they need. I’m also able to accommodate different routines and special instructions whenever possible. If your pet needs medication, I can make arrangements to provide it and can coordinate my schedule to make sure they receive it on time. I’m happy to communicate with you throughout the visit and provide updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is being well cared for while you’re away I treat every pet with patience, care, and respect. I make sure they are in a safe and comfortable environment, always have access to fresh water, and are supervised during walks and playtime. I also follow the owner’s instructions closely and make sure pets feel happy and loved while they’re in my care.

Chloe did an excellent job during my 9 days away. She provided lots of updates, adorable photos, and had excellent communication! She had no issues navigating my dog’s medication schedule or need for multiple walks a day. I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting service!!
We love Maura! This is our second house/pet sitting with her. She took wonderful care of Brody so we were able to relax and enjoy a few days away from home. She kept us posted on how he was doing, kept the house tidy and watered our outside plants for us. She's the best!
emma is great! she house sat for us and watched our two pups with very different personalities and they adore her. she kept our home clean and sent us pictures and updates daily. our pups were happy and healthy when we got home, and she even left us a cute note and some cookies for when we returned from our trip. she is timely and took notes while we shared how to care for our home and pets. highly recommend hiring her for your house sitting/dog watching and walking needs. she is a bright woman and very courteous. we will surely be using her services again in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - North Olmsted
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in North Olmsted on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,125 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Olmsted. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred North Olmsted walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in North Olmsted maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 North Olmsted 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Olmsted. On Rover:
- 99% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
