About: Hiiii, my name is Gianna! I live in Gordon/Ohio city area. I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I understand how important routines are and will always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions closely. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, or just companionship, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they need. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding, and can provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. Because I’m home most of the time, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I have a large fenced-in yard with a privacy fence, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run and play. I also have a friendly dog who enjoys company and helps visiting pets feel comfortable. My home has no carpet (just a few rugs), so accidents are never a big issue, and I always keep a clean, pet-safe environment. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely and provide regular updates and photos so you feel comfortable while you’re away.

“James was very easy going and patient with my puppy Moka. He took her for a nice extended walk, fed her and most of all, allowed her to warm up to him before he took her out.”
About: I live in Tremont, and I have extensive experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments through my volunteer work with the Cleveland APL. Having owned dogs throughout my life (including my sweet senior Puggle, Rocky) I know that every dog has a unique personality, history, and set of needs. I take the time to read each dog's cues, adapt to their comfort level, and give them the individualized attention they deserve. I've recently reduced my working hours to part-time with flexible hours, and I don't have children, so I am generally available during any weekday, and can schedule weekend walks as needed. I'm happy to schedule a meet and greet before booking walks or drop-ins to get to know your pet better. In your home, I will follow any routines you and your pet has, and will allow your pet to lead any interaction. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy and stress free while you’re away, and to leave your home just as you left it!
About: I grew up taking care of a pug. When I was only 4 years old, she came into my life at the young age of two months. She amazingly lived until she was nearly 17. For all those years, I took care of her— playing with her and petting her endlessly. We would often relax together, getting cozy with blankets. She loved to play outside in the yard with me and catch some sun rays too. We bounced off each other's energy. I always made sure she was fed and hydrated and taken outside for the bathroom. My pug Penny had been in my care from the days of her potty training and first learning special commands, to being senile and needing extra assistance in terms of mobility and lack of hearing and sight. More recently, I had dog sat for my friend. My friend's dog needs about 4 hours of walking total per day, so we were always on the move. My friend's dog is getting old, and I could gauge when she was getting tired when we were walking and I adjusted to her needs. I always have water handy. She also loved playing the game where I hid her sheep plushie toy around the house in such good hiding spots that it would impress me when she would almost immediately find it and run it back to me, wanting me to hide it again in a new, more difficult to find spot. I work part time in downtown Cleveland, so I have a lot of free time throughout the week and weekend to dedicate to taking care of your dog. Depending on the day, I could show up periodically throughout the day, or I could pet sit at the house all day long. I do not take care of pets overnight. I pay attention to your dog's needs. I make sure they always have access to water. I set alarms to ensure I feed them at the proper times, taking note of the required measurement of food to feed them. I gladly show them attention and loving care, playing with them when they're enthusiastic about physical activity and having a blast, and petting them and helping them relax when they're feeling like taking a breather or are simply just feeling calm. When it comes to walking dogs, I make sure I'm fully aware of my surroundings. Being observant of other people, other dogs, and drivers at all times, I remain cautious while also keeping up with the dog's pace. I make sure to scan the ground ahead of me in order to avoid debris/poop catching your dog's attention and making them stop in their tracks to sniff/eat it. It's important that your dog doesn't eat things it's not supposed to, and I pay attention to detail and always try to ensure safety when it comes to your dog.
“Sydney and James were great! We did a meet and greet, and they took such great care of my pup while walking him. It’s nice to have some extra hands during long work days! Thanks guys!”
“Joe was great with communication, quick to respond, and treated my dog like his own during walks! He was accommodating to some of my dogs health challenges and limitations and willing to change up the normal routine to suit my dogs needs. Great experience!”
“Amanda was awesome. My usual walker had an emergency and Amanda was so great to walk my dog Lucy and visit my 2 cats this week. Super kind and the pets loved her Thank you Amanda!!!”
“Jeffrey is an excellent walker. He takes our dog on long walks and gets him nice and tired. He took the time to meet us first to make sure we felt comfortable with him and always takes the best pictures of our pup as well! Our apartment is a little difficult to access but he has been great working with the staff to get in everyday and we feel comfortable with him in our home. Would highly recommend.”
About: I work from home on a flexible schedule and can accommodate mornings, mid-day and evening times. If you’re unsure just ask! :) I have several years of experience caring for cats and dogs and understand how important communication and updates are when you trust me with your pet. I work from home full time, so your pet will have plenty of company and attention. Your dog will also have the company of my friendly dog, Paloma, a 2 year old mini Bernedoodle. We have plenty of space and toys to have fun inside, as well as a walkable neighborhood for us to explore. I have multiple dog beds for sharing and an extra crate that can be used if needed.
About: I'm great with dogs and cats. I'm not afraid to administer meds to seniors. I provide a loving home to my 2 cats and small dog I'm currently self-employed part-time and can be flexible. I have two cats and one dog. Happy to try to work around your schedule as needed. I provide a safe and loving environment to my pets. I can administer meds as needed. I prefer to sit in your home as needed.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always taken great care of them! Since high school, I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and spent time walking dogs for local organizations. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own (I’m saving for one!), this gives me plenty of free time to help care for others’ furry family members—especially since I work remotely. I have 3 lil kitties who I love- I can definitely work with any animal ranging from reptiles to horses :) volunteering at sanctuary’s and zoos helped me gain that experience. I work full time, but remote/hybrid. I have the ability to schedule many breaks within my schedule for play time and potty breaks. I can provide as much attention needed for your little pups and/or kitties. Please feel free to shoot me a message to check availability if my calendar is blocked! I do not at this time provide boarding, but I live in a two story duplex! My cats have their own area and I have the ability to keep them separate from other animals if needed. If I am sitting in your home, i’ll make sure to provide enrichment and maintain a safe and comfortable environment.
About: I have a lot of experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, and small animals. I do have some basic experience with training. I am very comfortable with giving medication as well. I work in the hospital setting 3-4 days a week, but I have a lot of flexibility before and after shifts and on my days off! I will cater to your furry friend's needs. I will treat your animal like my own, and make sure that they get all of the love in the world. I have a flexible schedule and I will personalize their care.

Chloe came through super last minute for me to walk my dog! Very reliable, experienced, and stayed in contact with me the entire time! She also sent photos which I really appreciated. This was my first time using rover and my dog’s first babysitter! Thanks for making our experience so great! You are great at what you do!!! 🐶🫶🏻🩵
We just started working with Andria last week and have already had a great experience. She’s been very flexible with scheduling and does a wonderful job handling our husky mix, who tends to pull during walks. It’s clear she’s confident, attentive, and genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. We’re really happy to have found her and look forward to continuing!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Ohio City. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ohio City. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
