“Susan really went above and beyond to make our new high anxiety rescue dog comfortable. She is calm and loving and my dogs loved her. Will 100% recommend her to anyone!”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. From daily feedings and cleaning to exercise, play, and routine check-ins, I’ve been trusted by family, friends, and neighbors to care for a wide variety of pets with different needs and temperaments. Growing up around both household and farm animals taught me responsibility, consistency, and how to read animal behavior across species. I take a calm, attentive approach and always prioritize safety, routine, and genuine care, treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to be flexible depending on your pet’s needs and available anytime, especially during holidays. I prioritize consistency, timely visits, and making sure each pet gets quality attention rather than feeling rushed. I’m reliable with routines like feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I communicate clearly if anything ever changes. Whether your pet needs quick visits or longer companionship, I make sure they feel cared for and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely, respect your home, and maintain a calm, clean environment during every visit. I’m attentive to behavior changes, secure doors and gates, and take extra care with leashes, feeding routines, and medication instructions if needed. I treat every home and pet with the same level of responsibility and respect I would expect for my own.
“Susana did a great job. It was a godsend that she was able to be flexible and adjust things last minute to help me. She was also very fast at responding and gave me great notes/photos at the check ins. Thank you!”
“Tyler is a a great gift as my dog sitter. He has helped out tremendously when I was in need of someone to watch my dog Horus. Tyler is one of three people I trust with my dog.”
“What can we say but Alicia is great. She does a great job with our blind dog Gonzo who adores her. She's even learned how to administer insulin now that he's been diagnosed with diabetes. Thank you for caring so well for our pups.”
“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.”
“Skylar was great with my cat Rudy. He was well taken care of and just hearing him purr in the videos she sent me reassured me he was fine. I highly recommend Skylar to help with your cat or dog. She’s a real pet person!”
About: Hi! I’m Robert. I’ve had animals all my life (dogs, cats, fish, lizards, hermit crabs, raised praying mantids and butterflies). I trap and spay/neuter feral cats (TNR), feed birds, planted a pollinator garden in my yard…love nature and appreciate the relationship between humans and animals. My small dog Tyson is 11 or 12 years old and has some special needs (anxiety, hip-problems, blind in one eye, and I am his 3rd owner), so I know patience and compassion when it comes to senior dogs. Two of my cats I’ve had since they were kittens, and the third cat was abandoned by a neighbor and chose me as her new human when they left her. Happy to accommodate your companion’s special needs, and will be honest with you if there is something I don’t feel confident about. I also use two water fountain bowls, so your friend will have access to clean, moving water. I am a bar tender and have been doing that work since 2006, 12 years at my current bar. I work part time there and have a good amount of free-time which I can use to take care of of your dog. I have a large fenced in yard (176 ft of 6ft tall wooden fence) with plenty of shade, water bowls, central air and heating. Pets are free to lounge anywhere in my house, but I do prefer dogs to be crated if I am away for their own safety, and peace of mind for me :) Please let me know if you have any rules you have for your pets at home, feeding schedule, potty-break schedule, etc.
“Eva was amazing! She was so sweet and kind to my puppy, she was very punctual and followed all my instructions throughly! I would definitely recommend her to anyone and would love to book with her again!”
“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!”
About: I have always had a dog since a was a small child. As I became an adult my own children and I got two dogs, Milo and Leo. I also volunteer at the APL and foster dogs and puppies often. On top of this, I have dogsit for family several times. Dogs ranging from Schnauzer to Siberian husky in size! Most importantly, my dogs both foster and owned are apart of our family and I would love to extend our family to your fur babies! I wake up and get let out, fed, and get some loving before work. I work as a teacher 7 to 4. Once home the dogs get let out and often get time to sit on the front porch and play before dinner. I have a fenced in yard at our home. At your home I will listen and follow to the details listed to keep your dog safe while at your home.
About: I am a mom to two cats who I adopted as kittens in 2020. Bringing them home was one of the best decisions I made. I’ve utilized pet sitting services in the past and they’ve given me so much peace of mind, I want to be able to do that for others too. I can care for cats of any age as well as small and medium dogs. I’m a big runner so walking is a fun activity for me! I can be flexible with my schedule and I’m here to help! I work part time as a Pilates Instructor so I have free time thought the week and weekends to do drop in visits for your pets. My schedule can be flexible and open. I prefer mornings but I can always make evening visits as well! I will do drop in visits at your home. As part of those, I’ll make sure that fresh food and water is put out, scoop any litter boxes, and administer medicine if needed. I can also bring in mail and packages that arrive while you are away, water plants, and take out trash.
“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.”

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.

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.
