“Alicia has been incredible since I’ve gotten my first puppy. She’s helped ease so much of my stress and has gone above and beyond. My pup definitely loves her and misses her when she’s gone.”
“Maggie did an exceptional job with my two dogs . I booked the wrong dates and needed her that same day and she made it happen. Her patience and flexibility is top notch. Dependable and trustworthy! I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
About: I have been taking care of pets for about 8 years now. Whether it be my own dog or my friends dogs, I provide high quality care to each pet I care for. In addition, I potty trained and crate trained my dog, as well as taught her all her fun tricks! I am in college and will be available to care for your pets throughout most of my days due to my classes being spaced out throughout the week. I place the utmost importance not only on pet care but also on respecting pet owners and their instructions. I aim to provide high quality care to each and every pet so that they are safe, healthy, comfortable and happy!
About: I’ve always been the go to, dependable person for my family and friends when they need a dog or cat sitter. I’ve watched many different sizes and breeds of dogs. I’ll care for them as if they’re my own! I work from home so I’m able to be available anytime to let your dogs out, go for walks, feed them, etc. I can be very flexible on short notice as well! I respect others property and treat the fur babies as my own. I am punctual, dependable and detail oriented. I’m big on communication and will gladly share updates and pictures anytime I watch your pet.
“My pups love Devon! I also foster and she’s up for taking care of 3 dogs if I need her to. She is easy to communicate with, reliable, and provides great care for my pups. Highly recommend!”
“Jordan is a wonderful cat sitter! He really enjoys getting to know each cat’s personality. He takes great photos and leaves good notes with each visit. He’s very responsive as well. It was a comfort knowing our fur kids were being so well taken care of!”
“Alicia is amazing with our furbabies! Our dogs absolutely love her. She is affectionate, punctual, and can handle our great dane. We feel confident knowing every time she comes to our house to care for our dogs. Highly recommend!!!”
“Mauren and Josh sent lots of pictures and details and it was clear our dogs enjoyed spending time with them. They did a great job and we will hire them again when we need help! Thanks for working with us!”
“truly can't say enough wonderful things about Marissa! From the moment she came over before our trip to meet our dogs and learn their routine, we knew they were going to be in great hands. She treated our puppies like they were her own. Every drop-in was right on time, and she always sent updates with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. What really sets Marissa apart is how she handled an unexpected emergency. During the hottest week of the summer, our air conditioner stopped working with only 24 hours left in our trip. As soon as she noticed the house was getting too warm, she contacted us immediately. She went above and beyond, helping us troubleshoot the issue from a distance and refusing to leave our dogs alone until she knew they were safe. She even helped get the downstairs temperature back to 76 degrees. When she realized the upstairs was still much too hot for the dogs to be crated overnight, she didn't hesitate to offer to spend the night with them—without us even asking. That level of care, compassion, and dedication is something you simply can't teach. Knowing she was there with our dogs allowed us to relax, even though we were so far from home. She did an amazing job caring for both of our pups—our 150-pound lap dog and our demanding little pitty! They absolutely adored her, and it's obvious she genuinely loves the animals she cares for. If you're looking for someone who is dependable, caring, communicative, and willing to go above and beyond, Marissa is the one. We will absolutely be using her again, even for short day trips. Thank you, Marissa, for taking such incredible care of our babies. We are beyond grateful!”
“I really appreciate you stopping over and taking care of Murphy! Gabrielle checked in when she got there, gave him time to go to the bathroom, walked him and made sure he had water. My dog vomited once before she got there and she cleaned it up and even took a picture so I could know what was going on. I would definitely use Gabrielle again!”
“Paula was wonderful, trustworthy, and dependable when it came to needing someone to let our new puppy and other dog out while we were at work. We are so grateful for her!”
“I am happy to share that barely took excellent care of my cat while I was away on vacation. I was extremely impressed upon our first meet and greet where she also brought her husband. Bailey took excellent care of my cat, brought in the mail, and sent timely messages with photos!! I came home to a clean house and a happy cat! I would highly recommend her to watch your pet.”
“Tyler was very fast at communicating back to me and very knowledgeable. I could tell my pup had a good time during her drop in, she was all tuckered out. Exactly what I was looking for. Definitely will rebook with him.”

“Ghazal did an amazing job taking care of Sam. She stopped in as planned and gave thorough updates. We were grateful to have lots of pics with each visit and it was clear Sam bonded with Ghazal quickly.”
About: I have grown up with dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish as pets. In addition to this, I have over two years of experience as a vet assistant at Westpark Animal Hospital. Being a vet assistant has improved both my dog and cat handling/care-taking skills. My family has also fostered puppies and I am a volunteer dog walker for CITY DOGS. I will be a sophomore at Ohio State in the fall and I am studying Animal Sciences on the Pre-Vet track! My hours at work this summer allow me to be relatively available throughout the week. I will be able to fit pet care into my routine before or after work, depending on the hours that I am scheduled for the week. I have 2 dogs at home and will be raising a Guiding Eye puppy this summer. My yard is partially fenced, but it would probably be better for me to drop into clients' homes for walks, playtime, feeding, etc. I'm used to my dogs being higher-energy, so I feel confident caring for pets of all energy levels.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was able to walk, they are my passion with a career in wildlife rehabilitation in mind! I currently have dogs, cats, snakes, spiders, and a gecko. Working with a variety of animals in my time has allowed me to grasp certain aspects of animals that allow for smoother interactions. I currently work 3 times a week, days depending on schedule. I work with dogs for a living. I’d like to take on clients especially on the days I don’t work for some extra money. I have experience with walking, crating, putting gear on safely, basic training, and much more. For cats I know how to safely get cats into carriers, administer topical and oral medications, basic first aid, noticing concerning behaviors, take care of accidents, scoop boxes, and much more.
About: Hello! My name is Kelsey and I’m a 28 year old active CT technologist in the Elyria Area. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have helped caring for each of them. I’ve owned four Medium-XL rescue pups so far as well as a bearded dragon! I’m comfortable with any size or breed as I’ve helped care for chihuahuas up to Mastiffs. If you think I’d be a good fit for your pup I’d love to meet them! I’ve also helped care for cats as well and have House sat for others to take care of both dogs and cats. I love all furry friends and would be more than happy to meet and care for yours. I work second shift in the hospital setting and have availability until about 12 pm to care for all the fur babies. I like to start my mornings with a walk with my two pittie mixes and would love to fit yours into that routine as well! It’s important to know the animal(s) you’re working with and what their comfort level is. It’s my job taking care of them to keep them safe and fulfilled.
“I was very happy with the services Tiffany provided watching our cats while we were out of town. One of our cats went into hiding and she went above and beyond trying to find her her. She reported in every day with pictures and stayed in touch with me throughout our time away. I'll definitely use Tiffany again for any future trips out of town.”

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 North Ridgeville 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 North Ridgeville 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 North Ridgeville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
