“Ellen did a great job! We received regular photo updates while we were away for 10 days and came home to a happy cat! We would recommend her to others looking for a pet caretaker.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a more loving and kind sitter for my dog. At every step of the way, Monika sent photos and videos, and I felt so happy to have her. I will not use any other sitter than her because she is amazing. I am so grateful to have worked with her and to have my puppy, love her . Thank you, Monika! You are the best.”
About: Hello! I am a proud Clevelander and lover of the outdoors. I was previously on Rover as a regular dog-sitter and dog-walker, and looking to pick it up again as my schedule has become flexible. I loved caring for others’ dogs and meeting their needs when their pawrents were out of town or at work! I now live with my husband in a house with two pups of our own, a 8-year-old miniature poodle named Charlie and a 13 -year-old welsh terrier named Prim. I’m available for dog walking during the workweek! I have a flexible schedule these days and would be happy to walk your dog during the weekday. I always approach dogs slowly and allow them to sniff me first. On walks, I allow them to set their own pace. Then, I make sure they are comfortable and settled before I leave.
About: I have two lovely rescues who have 10/10 energy four times a day and I take them to the park once a day for a nice round of zoomies and catch. On rainy days I sometimes go still go if the rain is not too bad (mud is not my friend) I have taken dog training courses to help my dogs adjust to city life and it has been fantastic so far. High energy dogs are welcome with me! I’m currently working from home and I speed walk and run at 7am-9am 12pm-2pm 4pm-6pm 8pm-10pm. If your dog needs a morning run, they can definitely join my pack! I live in a city my entire life and have walked friends dogs so I understand how important it is to get many walks and to get them out of the building ASAP. I have a high sense of urgency and I make sure that my pack is ready for a big NAP during the day!
“Val was great! Excellent communicator, was always there when she said she'd be, and my dog adored her 😊 It's a huge relief knowing my dog was in safe and caring hands, would definitely book again.”
About: I’ve taken care of and had several dogs my whole life! I had 4 dogs growing up and have a lot of experience walking/ playing/ being around dogs! I have my own cat now named, Momo! Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for days/ weeks at a time. I’m a middle school teacher off for summer and have plenty of time on my hands! I’m currently working part time in the summers and able to play and walk dogs for most of the day. I am available from 8 am- 3:30pm. I have a cat of my own and have had multiple dogs growing up. I am able to feed, walk, play and provide assistance! I can put them back in a crate if needed.
“My dogs absolutely love Jesseca! She is amazing!! She even brought my mail/packages in the house because she knew we were out of town. I will continue to have her take care of my babies.”
“Maura was wonderful. She was so attentive and sent amazing pictures. She’s reliable and has amazing communication. I will absolutely be using her in the future and I recommend her 100%!”
About: I currently have 1 dog, 1 cat, and tons of exotics!I have worked in a pet rescue giving me experience with shy dogs and the most outgoing dogs. I've been trained on safe walking practices and safe dog interactions. I would love to help care for your pets! With the pets I have, I'm always working and learning about the care I can provide them! With my dog and cat, I'm ready to play with them. I also work at a pet store specializing in fish. I'm happy and ready to join your pets live's as long as I can! For dog walking and drop in visits I like to spend time letting the dog sniff me before harnessing or leashing. I want to make sure they are comfortable with me in their space. Once showing a more relaxed body language I'm ready to earn trust and take walks around neighborhoods and take dogs out for their potty breaks.
“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!”
“Carla is awesome, coming to the rescue with a last-minute cat visit when I had to leave town suddenly and giving them and my house the best care and me, peace of mind. I genuinely appreciate her flexibility and sweetness, and we would welcome her back anytime for future travels!”
“Serafina was kind and thoughtful through the whole process of booking and watching Sugar. I could trust her with my new puppy and felt informed through the whole process.”
“Madelyn is very professional and goes above and beyond. Although this was the first time I left my cat, Madelyn made me feel confident he was in great hands. She followed all directions closely and promptly communicated if there were any concerns/ issues. My cat really likes her too!!!”
About: I've always been around dogs, cats, kittens, or puppies. Since I was young, we've had some kind of furry animal. The litters of puppies and kittens were always my favorite. They became part of my heart. My favorite past time activity as a kid was playing outside with the pets. I'm a full time student, but after class I am available to make sure the pets I care for get lots of love and attention. My pets have a lot of space outside and are really simple to take care of. I love the routine we've built. With my clients, I made sure to keep the pets well fed and always having water. As well as keeping them active.
“Jessica dropped-in to feed and take care of our cats twice a day while we were gone for 10 days. She did a wonderful job, we’ve just come home and our cats are still happy and healthy, and their litter boxes clean! We had a crazy wind storm while we were gone that blew open a side door and knocked down part of our fence, she even helped to close & re-lock the door and sent a picture of our fence to let us know what had happened. This help showed me she cared about how we felt when we came home from our trip abroad!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Parma
Tina is amazing!! She has been checking in on my pups three times a week for well over a month now and she’s always so attentive, takes the cutest pet pics, and is so wonderfully flexible with our schedules. My dogs love her visits and we are so grateful for her services. ❤️
Katherine was amazing. She took care of my 13 year old husky who is stuck in her ways. Despite Roxy not being very welcoming Katherine didn’t give up and was able to give Roxy her meds twice a day and let her out. She even cleaned up after Roxy when she had an accident in the house (no fault of Katherine’s). Her notes and pictures for every visit was such a comfort.
Can't say enough positive things about Janet and her services - she took great care of Scarlet, our 12.5-year-old dog and sent wonderful reports of each visit. We strongly feel that Janet gave us peace of mind while my husband was at work and I was out of town. Thanks to Janet and Rover!
Nicole was truly amazing and was so flexible with us. She respected our home and had patience with our puppy. She’s a great communicator and always stood in touch with us. If you’re ever looking for someone local and affordable, Nicole outshines the competition! Thank you!!
Patience was a dream! She handled our very timid and shy Dane with such love and care! Our dogs loved her, and she ensured they got plenty of pets and love with each visit. While the cats were fed with an auto feeder, water fountain etc, she made sure the machines were operating and gave them plenty of attention too! Would highly recommend her!
Paige was incredible! They hopped in super last minute and were able to stop in and take care of my pup after a sitter canceled. They followed all directions and was very patient with our boy in a situation that was new for him. Could not recommend enough!

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

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.
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.
