About: I’ve been around all sorts of furry friends, flighty friends, and the scaley ones ect. The love and passion I have has always set me aside from most and I’ve also gathered many different experiences in the animal care field. In my growing path, I’ve worked for the Lorain County Metroparks multiple times and have been volunteering with animals since the age of 16! Pet care fits great into my daily routine due to my part-time career currently and my passion for the animal care field!! I also have 5+ years of animal handling experience/ dieting❤️ I have a fenced in yard all around and also pay attention to daily behaviors and movements. Also prioritize outdoor time and play time as well.
About: My husband, Keith and I love dogs and have had them all of our lives. Our beloved rescue dog passed in April. We miss having a dog to love on and play with. Your dog(s)will be treated like they are part of our family. My husband and I make a great team as he likes to take the dogs for daily walks no matter the weather and I like to play fetch, or work on commands. I work from home full-time while my husband works from home 3 days a week so we are here on site daily. We are active people and love to go on walks ourselves so we will take the dog with us. There are no kids or other pets in our home. We have an invisible fence so we will ensure all dogs are taken out on a leash when they need to go outside.
About: I have had dogs in my house my whole life, and for the past few years, I have been dog-sitting for numerous families for long periods of time. I am equipped to walk, let out, feed, administer medications, play, and take care of any other needs your dog may have. I work as a caregiver on Saturdays and Sundays for 6 hours each day, but otherwise, I can spend the rest of my time with your pup. I make it a priority to get any instructions my clients may have regarding their pup and make sure to follow them. I also make sure that I am always in earshot when in the home with the dog so that if anything happens, I can quickly act.
About: As an animal lover, I know pets are family—not just animals. I take pride in giving them the same love and attention they get at home. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just extra cuddles, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and stress-free while you’re gone. As an elementary teacher, I have a structured schedule that actually works really well for pet care. I’m available before and after school, in the evenings, and on weekends. During breaks and summers, I have even more flexibility, allowing me to provide extended care, walks, and drop-in visits. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I focus on making them feel loved, safe, and comfortable—whether that’s sticking to their usual routine, giving them extra playtime, or just spending quality time with them. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Alicia stepped right in and got immediately comfortable with our fur babies. She accepted a last minute booking and was so helpful with her flexibility and patience with our anxious girl dog. I will book again with Alicia!”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! She was attentive, caring, and clearly took the time to make sure they were happy and comfortable. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She was communicative, dependable, and treated my dogs like they were her own. I came home to happy, well-loved pups, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would absolutely recommend Emily and would be thrilled to have her care for my dogs again! 5 Start sitter ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Brittany was great at communicating with me, especially because my cat is antisocial. I didn’t anticipate Brittany seeing her so she let me know that the food and water were being consumed and she was using the litter box. It made my travels much easier! I’d book with Brittany again.”

About: I've always had a deep love for animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs.

I'm happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic medications if needed, provide plenty of exercise, playtime, cuddles, and regular updates with photos. I can accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of affection based on your pet's individual needs. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine and will make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you're away. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding routines, exercise needs, medications, and any special requests. In your home, I respect your space, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a clean environment. I stay alert during walks, use secure leashes and harnesses, and always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving the loving care they deserve.
About: I have always had a dog growing up. I am now an owner of my own. My dog is very well trained, loved, and cared for. I am patient, kind, active, and an animal lover.

I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep normal routine as consistent as possible.
About: I had the pleasure of raising my German Shepherd for 8 years. He sadly crossed the rainbow bridge April 2025 from hemangiosarcoma. Jax was my baby but had a variety of health problems that have allowed me to have a deep knowledge of how to care for dogs. We adopted Trixie, our sweet pittie shortly after! She is the most snuggly lapdog! I am watchful with dogs and promise your dog will enjoy his or her time with Trixie, Terian, our kitty Coco and me! I have walked friends' and neighbors' dogs and provided overnight and short-term dog sitting for various breeds. Jax completed advanced obedience school, giving me extensive experience with the training process. I also am a certified behavior therapist who uses positive reinforcement to increase desired behavior. I am currently working in office, but I have the availability to come home during the day if your pup requires extra walks! I am typically gone for 7 hours Monday-Friday but come home at lunch to walk the dogs. My husband is WFH so your baby will always have someone home! I always make time to walk the dogs at least twice a day for 20-30 minutes. If your pup requires more or less, I can tailor their walks accordingly. I am very flexible with scheduling. At our house, your pup will have plenty of room to play. We have a large backyard. We also are more than happy to take the pups to a Dog Park to get out any extra energy. I am happy to crate your pup if needed. We have plenty of interactive dog toys for Trixie and your pup to play with. Trixie is about 3 years old and loves to make new friends. We hope your pup will come join us while you are away! Because I have a fur baby of my own, I understand the time and dedication needed for a pet. Fortunately, I am able to let the dogs out during the day. My husband and I are active, so walks and hikes with the dogs is part of our routine. I have raised a very spoiled dog, so I know how to give your pup(s) the love and affection they need while you are out of town. Between snuggles, leashed walks, open area play in the backyard, yummy treats, and lots of belly scratches, your pet will be loved and attended to!
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!

Aside from my babies, I have always dog/ cat sat for my grandparents and close friends/family I am currently a full time nursing student. I also work per-diem at a local hospital. During this semester my availability will differ with mostly mornings/ early afternoons and weekends being open I have a vehicle to get your pup to and from where they need to go and lots of leashes/ treats to keep them occupied

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.
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 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.
