“Melissa went above and beyond my expectations. I really appreciated her taking her own time to come meet Romeo and let me show her where everything was before the actual visit. I was really nervous leaving Romeo and she did a great job communicating and doing everything that was asked over the few days and was very flexible with last minute changes to the schedule. Would definitely book again!”

“Love knowing my pets are in great hands when we are away. Rachel always gives great updates while we’re gone with lots of pictures of all my pet babies. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid, including my black lab, Sadie. She taught me how to be thoughtful of how pets feel, and as she aged, how to clean up lots and lots of poop in the house! I believe pets deserve a happy alternative to being boarded, and I intend to give that genuine connection to any pet I encounter! I am currently on summer break from college, but I decided to stay in the area. I have a couple of part-time jobs, but they are only a few hours a day, so I can designate more time to taking care of your pets! I can be pretty flexible with hours and days, and I don't care what time of day it is to make sure your pet gets the attention they need. Pet safety is my top priority. I make sure pets are always in a secure environment—free from hazards, toxic plants, or small items they could swallow. I follow any routines or instructions you provide closely, from feeding schedules to exercise needs. As a collegiate athlete, I prioritize healthy foods and exercise, and I will make sure your pets do as well. In your home, I treat your space with respect and maintain a calm, comforting environment to reduce stress for your pet. I always supervise outdoor time and use secure leashes or fenced areas. You can count on regular updates and photos, so you feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Joyce was great! She took the time to come meet everyone and learn their routines prior to scheduled visits. Every detail was followed to perfection and the fur kids were well fed, happy and stress free when we got home. So glad we found Joyce! We can finally plan time away without worrying - we know the babies are in good hands!”

“Matthew watched our two babies over Memorial Day weekend and he did a great job! The pups warmed up to him instantly. He took lots of pictures and communicated scheduling really well. I had no worries during the whole trip. We will definitely be using him again in the future 😊”

“This was my first experience with Rover. Greg did a great job with my cats. He was very thorough and responsive and made sure that three cats are happy. He kept in touch and responded quickly to any questions. I highly recommend Greg to anyone for a pet sitter.”

“Olivia did an amazing job with our skittish cat. It takes a lot for him to warm up to people, and he clearly liked her — which says a lot. She was responsive, followed all directions, sent updates and pictures, and was very friendly. We felt completely comfortable while we were away and would absolutely use her again. Highly recommend!”
“Christina was absolutely amazing! She made the time to come meet my dog prior to the drop in and she listened to all of my care details and was very thorough and enthusiastic! She sent a great note after the drop in and made sure to take photos for me so I could see he was doing well! Will be using her regularly!!!”
“Taylor is an excellent pet sitter! We are so very pleased with her loving and caring attention to our pups. Plus her communication with us while we were away was outstanding and provided much peace of mind.”

“Jessica has been fantastic during drop-in visits for our dog Buddy! It was clear the second she walked in our home that she knows and loves dogs. Buddy was instantly comfortable with her thanks to her warm and welcoming demeanor. Knowing Buddy has someone that we can trust to drop-in while we are at work is very comforting. Highly recommend Jessica!!”

About: Hi there! I’m Belma — a 27-year-old nurse with a flexible schedule and a huge love for pups. I work 12-hour shifts, 3 days a week, which gives me plenty of time on my days off to care for your pet! I have a 5 year old golden retriever of my own and have experience raised two puppies. I’ve also spent years volunteering with animal shelters in the Willoughby–Eastlake area and grew up around all kinds of pets — from birds and cats to hamsters and dogs. I’m primarily offering drop-in visits and dog walking. I’m very active and love going on walks — so why not bring your furry friend along for the fun? I’m available most weekdays and cover both the Cleveland and Columbus areas depending on my workweek. Let me know if your pet has any special needs or medications — I’m happy to accommodate. Looking forward to meeting your four-legged family member! I work 3 days a week, 12 hour shifts so I am off 4 days a week currently and very flexible on those days. My work schedule does vary week to week however and I am both in Cleveland and Columbus during those times so we can discuss this further Currently looking for those needing assistance with dog walks throughout the day and drop in visits for potty breaks and shorter walks while you’re at work! No home care at this time.
“Sophie did an amazing job with our cats. She sent the cutest pics of our fur babies while we were away, and it was clear they were in great hands. This was our first time using Rover and everything was so easy and smooth. Looking forward to booking with Sophie again soon!”

“What can I say about Kristin? She is AMAZING!! She makes owning a pet, raising a family and working a whole lot easier. Kristin is reliable and truly an animal lover. I know that my dog is in the best of hand with her, so thank you Kristin!”

“Paula is my go-to for a while now and am so happy to have found her! I have had to run out of town a couple times now on short notice for sudden family matters and with Paula, the dogs are the one thing I don't have to stress about! I know they are taken care of and happy pups! She has bailed me out a couple of times now and I can't thank her enough! She even left me and the dogs a Christmas card the last time... so thoughtful of her! If you need someone for an upcoming weekend, I highly recommend her!”

About: I grew up taking care and watching pets. I have mainly worked with dogs and cats. I have been relied on to walk and feed pets for friends and family since I was young. I’m currently working part time evenings and weekends. I have availability during the day throughout the week to come walk your furry friends, let them out to go potty, or just play with them in the house so their day isn’t as lonely. I have a very large fenced in yard that has never had a issue accommodating my 90lbs Flat Coat. I am used to dealing with all different size dogs and can be sure keep them safe while I’m in your home or out on a walk.
About: I'm an experienced pet sitter who loves spending time with dogs. I'm patient, reliable and, I treat your pet like family. I have owned and worked with dogs all my life (I'm 65) and feel this is a natural fit as I near and enter into retirement. I'm currently a full time pastor of a Lutheran congregation. The congregation is used to me bringing dogs with me to work. However, depending on the pet and the request of the owners, I can leave pets at my (or your) home and check in on them regularly. I am with them overnight. I do not have a fenced yard in my Condo so will walk them on a leash. I have my own fur baby, Annie, who absolutely loves other doggy companions. I work with each pet and client individually to ensure that we are meeting your needs. Crate trained animals are welcome but I've sat for many who roam free in the condo.

Olivia did an amazing job with our skittish cat. It takes a lot for him to warm up to people, and he clearly liked her — which says a lot. She was responsive, followed all directions, sent updates and pictures, and was very friendly. We felt completely comfortable while we were away and would absolutely use her again. Highly recommend!
As usual, we knew that our dog was in good hands with Cindy. He’s a little uncertain with new people but he’s always happy when Cindy arrives at his house for a visit. She is always on time and he loves their walks together. If walks don’t work out (he doesn’t always like nighttime walks) she will spend a little extra time with him at home. I would definitely recommend her for your pets!
