“Janet was quick to make friends with my dog, and their walks together are quickly becoming an event my dog looks forward to. I am beyond pleased. So much so that we’ve booked the next month.”
About: My family adopted our first dog when I was 7-years old! It was my responsibility to pick up after the dog and take her on long, long walks. As she got older and I moved out, I would often return home to take care of her while my father was traveling for work. I got used to late night potty outings and helping her up the steps. My goal is to make sure every dog feels loved and cared for. I currently work part-time, so I have time on my hands and I would love to spend more of the free time with animals. I have two wonderful cats (a senior lady and a young lady) that I come home to. Currently, I’m available in the mornings Saturday-Tuesday and Friday, and all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays to look after your fur babies. I can also do late evenings after 8:30 Tuesday, Friday-Saturday. I have two litter boxes that are cleaned daily in my home. A plethora of cat toys, several different cat beds that my cats love to rotate around. Our fence is unfortunately broken, but I’m always happy to walk to the park nearby for playtime with your pets as needed.
About: I grew up working at a dog kennel and have always owned dogs. Some of my best friends are trained professionals and I've learned a lot from them. I can do walks, playtimes and certain medications. I can do over nights just not at my house for the time being. I only work Saturday and Sunday but am Still available early Sundays and later after 9 as well as late (after 12am) on Saturday. My days are pretty open during normal pet care hours and outside of them. Dogs love me, and I understand dog body language. My dog was over 100 lbs and I can handle him just fine. I love dog play times and don't mind running with them to get energy out. I just love dogs and making money. Message me with any questions or concerns.
About: Hi! I have over 6 years of pet sitting experience through Rover and 3 years of professional dog daycare experience. I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality, needs, and routine. I provide reliable, attentive, and personalized care to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience with pets requiring extra care, including administering medications, insulin injections, and monitoring blood glucose levels. I’m also familiar with different breeds, temperaments, and behaviors, and always respect each pet’s individual needs and boundaries. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet with the same patience and care I’d give my own. I provide regular photo updates and communication so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands. My goal is to keep their routine consistent and give both you and your pets peace of mind! I like to add a little fun into my routine with animals. I did work at a doggy daycare for about three years, until I successfully came into the medical field. Missing my favorite pups that I created a great/exciting bond with them. I would still like to create new bonds, even if I'm not at the daycare!! I usually write down a schedule sheet on what your pet and I have done doing the days that I have been sitting. Always asked for permission before doing anything. Making sure everything is locked up and looking nice once I leave.
About: I’ve grown up with animals all throughout my childhood, which i’ve helped care for. I had 4 dogs in my family home and loved growing up with them. This has helped me learn many skills and how to care for dogs. I was so interested in joining Rover because caring for animals is something I naturally enjoy. I would love to help families and to be a trusted person that you can rely on. My animals mean the world to me and I know how important it is to find the right person to care for them. Would love to get to know your four legged friends! I’m currently available during the weekdays as well as weekends. I work a job but have some time in between assignments so I am currently very flexible. I will accommodate to the needs of every animal making sure they feel as safe and comfortable as they can be. I will build trust and help every animal.

About: I have had many pets since I was a child. I have taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, bunnies, and fish. I love animals and know how difficult it can be to find a good pet sitter. I have been a sitter for cats and dogs in many different capacities, from walking dogs, to taking care of cats over their owner’s long vacations. I am able to walk any sized dog, play with them, and feed and clean up after them. I am able to feed and clean up after cats, and play with them also.

About: Hi, I’m Kris! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have two years of professional experience working in a busy doggy daycare, where I was responsible for safely supervising and caring for up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play, administer medications, maintain proper cleaning and disinfection protocols, and provide a safe, low-stress environment for every dog in my care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, including puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and pets with behavioral challenges or special medical needs. I’ve also fostered dogs in my home, which has given me additional experience helping nervous or transitioning pets feel safe and comfortable. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a patient companion, medication, or simply lots of love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is simple: to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! et care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around consistency and animal care. I have experience managing multiple pets at once, so I’m used to building my schedule around feeding times, litter box maintenance, play sessions, and check-ins. I’m typically available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits and maintain a steady routine for each pet I care for. I’m comfortable incorporating visits into my day-to-day activities, and I plan my time so pets always get full attention without feeling rushed. Because I’ve worked in structured animal care settings and have fostered pets in my home, staying on top of routines like feeding, cleaning, medication, and companionship is second nature to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I naturally organize my day around I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care visit. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. I’m careful with home entry and follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules. I keep doors secured during visits, monitor pets closely during interactions, and make sure their environment stays clean, comfortable, and safe at all times. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me. I approach each animal with patience and respect, especially shy, senior, or anxious pets, and I always move at their comfort level. My goal is to create a safe, consistent experience so pets feel secure while you’re away and you feel
About: I've assisted in taking care of my parent's dogs for years, from a grumpy old man dog to a chaotic 6 week old puppy, whether that be playing, making food, going for walks, and cleaning up accidents. I also have experience with provided medicine as needed. I am very flexible with timing as long as I know a week prior, but if it's short notice, I am mainly available in the mornings up until noon. I make sure to play, regularly let them go to the bathroom outdoors, feed them at appropriate times and if they want their space then I respect them.
“Ellen always does a wonderful job walking Quincy! He always has so much fun with her! She takes such good care of him! I will be booking more walks with her in the future!”
About: I was raised in a home of 11 cats for most of my childhood. I've learned to love all animals in the course of my years. Now, anytime I see an animal in distress I want to help it. I am truly passionate about animals and their well-being. I love the idea of providing love and care for pets when people are busy or away. I've helped many past friends take care of their dogs and they've taught me a lot. I have been wanting to become a pet watcher and pet walker ever since the beginning of 2023. Until now I didn't realize there was a platform for this. I am truly excited to start helping the pet community. I always ask questions and make sure that the little furry ones get all the love and attention they possibly can. I will pet, feed, and take care of your animals like they belong to me.

“Alisa is wonderful, she has patience and her work with my Bella is amazing she really helps and takes the steps to help her with her separation anxiety! Thank you we truly appreciate all your support and hard work you have been giving Bella and us.”
About: I have taken care of animals of all ages and of all types as well. I can administer medication to both dogs and cats I am a student who works part time so I am very flexible and have lots of availability. I currently have two dogs myself. I have a 10-year-old pitbull terrier named Lily and a nine month old French bulldog mix named Jewels. I’ve had both dogs since they were puppies. Their schedule has been embedded in my routine so caring for additional pets is not a concern for me. When dogs are away from their owners, they tend to get a little shy and nervous, and their energy levels are low. I’d like to make sure they are at their most comfortable when I am around whether that is letting them take their time to warm up to me, or trying to break them out of their shell.

Tina was so helpful! She responded to my request on Rover almost immediately which was very helpful since it was a last minute request. She came over for a meet and greet so that she could understand our house and meet Ashe. Her walk with Ashe was exactly 30 minutes and Ashe seemed happy as could be from the photos she sent us! Excited to keep working with Tina.

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 Parma. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
