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.

About: My dear friend FLIES me down to Florida to care for her 3 dogs when she goes on vacation - yes, I'm that loving and attentive to the pups! I love, love, love them - big, small, in-between. I grew up with dogs, and have a gentle, kind way with them, and they tend to love me right back, pretty quickly in return! Dogs are so wonderful - they ground you, they help you remember every day what's really important in life... they're joyful, they're soulful and I'll care for and love your furry family member wonderfully in your absence! Please feel free to contact me with any questions and I'll be delighted to tell you more about me any time you'd like to talk! Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule as my other work that I do (marketing) is remote. I'll have lots of time with your pet if you bring me in for home care/pet sitting! I care for pets in their own homes, which is more comfortable for my pet clients. In my home, I have 4 cats of my own and my yard is not fenced in, so I'm happy to care for your buddies right in the environment they're happiest in -- their own house!

About: Hi, I’m so glad you’re here! 🐾❤️ I’m a former veterinary assistant with years of hands-on experience working with animals, and caring for pets has always been a true passion of mine. My experience in the veterinary field has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, safety, health, and the individual needs of each pet. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet in my care like they’re my own. Whether they’re playful, shy, energetic, senior, or need a little extra patience and attention, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. You can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in caring, experienced hands while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! With open availability and a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide reliable pet care that works around your needs. Whether you need daytime walks, overnight care, weekend help, or extended stays, I’m happy to accommodate whenever possible. I enjoy spending quality time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. Because I will be caring for your pets in your home, I will be sure to communicate with you of what your standard procedures are and will follow through with the same procedures to create a sense of stability for your pets.

About: Hi, I’m Nina! I provide dependable, stress-free care for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a long walk to burn energy, or just some company during the day, I’ve got you covered. I focus on making each visit feel calm, safe, and tailored to your dog’s personality. For high-energy dogs, I keep walks active and engaging. For older or more relaxed dogs, I keep things calm and comfortable. I’m also happy to follow specific routines, reinforce training, and provide medication if needed. You’ll always know how things are going—I send photo updates and a quick summary after every visit so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. Variable availability throughout the week - would like to find regular clients for recurring walks but also happy to help out here and there for occasional walking needs. I provide on-time, reliable visits, clean water, feeding (if needed), and lots of attention. I tailor walks to your dog’s pace and needs. I will provide photos and update after every visit. I will always respect your home and instructions.

About: I intentionally take one dog, or one dog family, at a time because I want every pup staying with me to receive the attention, care, and love they deserve. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. They’re family, and you want to know they’re not just being watched. You want to know they’re being cared for, and loved. That’s exactly what I try to provide. Your dog gets to stay in a comfortable home environment, become part of our routine, and receive plenty of individual attention instead of being one of several dogs competing for a sitter’s time. One of the things I especially love about caring for dogs is getting to know what makes each individual dog comfortable and happy. I’ve had dogs throughout my life, including senior dogs, so I understand that not every pup needs the same kind of care. Some dogs want to play all day, while others are happiest curled up beside you. Some need extra patience and reassurance, while others just want to know when dinner is coming. I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs and dogs who need a little extra help, including following feeding routines, administering oral medications, and keeping up with individual care instructions. If your dog has medication, supplements, mobility limitations, a specific feeding schedule, anxiety, or simply needs a little more patience and attention, I’m happy to work with their normal routine. My goal is to make their stay feel as familiar and comfortable as possible. Because I keep boarding intentionally small, I can give your dog the individual attention that can be difficult to provide in a busy boarding environment. Depending on your dog’s personality and routine, their stay may include: One on one attention and companionship Couch cuddles and cozy naps Playtime and enrichment Supervised outdoor time Lots of affection and reassurance Meals, treats, and supplements according to their normal routine Medication administration when needed Comfortable sleeping arrangements Regular photos and updates for you I’m happy to follow the routines you already have at home. The more I know about your dog, the better I can care for them. Of course, no stay at our house would be complete without Kenobi, my 4 year old yellow Lab and resident Buddy. Kenobi is goofy, affectionate, laid back, and has yet to meet a dog he doesn’t like. He’s always excited to make a new friend and loves having another dog around. I’ve always had a huge love for dogs and have cared for dogs since I was young. My dogs have been an incredibly important part of my life, and caring for them has taught me that dogs aren’t just pets. They each have their own personalities, needs, routines, and ways of communicating. My goal isn’t simply to give your dog somewhere to stay. I want them to feel like they’re spending a little time at their second home. I am currently working part-time for a real estate agency as an admin. I can work from home or in the office so my schedule is flexible. My dog is on a routine from walks to feedings and I do my best to stick to it everyday. I will always be prompt and timely to make sure your pets stay on schedule as well.

About: Offering walks around the neighborhood, potty breaks and hikes! Have been training, competing, exercising and hiking my pups for 20+ years. Both my pups are avid hikers and would you love to offer other pups the experience. All local trails - on leash - will send pics of your pups big day out! Is a hike on your pups bucketlist? We can make that happen. Hike length can be varied based on pup age and their fitness level. Can take well behaved pups siblings together and with groups of other pups if you are looking for play friends! I can walk dogs early in the morning and in the evenings during the week. I am flexible with schedules and walks/hikes on the weekends. I can care for your pet based on your specific needs and instructions. We can tailor services to the personality and needs of your pets

About: Recently left my quality management role at Amazon and now pursuing a career in what feeds my spirit - animals. My pets have changed my life for the better, I believe everyone should have the ability to experience what I have! Since I was in kindergarten I have had a unique connection with animals, and starting this new chapter in my life is terrifying yet amazing. So if you decide to book with me or only will you be supporting local (so thank you), but you will feel completely at peace knowing your pet is not just another checkbox on my list…. But a new friend I am happy to have made. I exercise my pets everyday and ensure they are training consistently. I currently have a flexible schedule so we can work on your needs and scheduling. My home is puppy proof, along with a gate I use to separate the upstairs from downstairs so my cat can have some peace and quiet lol

“Jackie was absolutely amazing when it came to watching my boys for the week of Thanksgiving. It was my first time using Rover and I was initially very nervous and stressed. Jackie arranged a time for us to meet each other and the cats before my trip and go over their needs in person. She came every day as arranged and sent pics to keep me updated. She also brought in our mail which was so kind and helpful! Highly recommend and would happily have her watch my boys again in the future!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and I have an 18 year old pup at home! I’m very passionate about the quality of life for our furry friends, and can’t wait to meet yours! Safety and fun are my main priority. I’ve transitioned to pet care full time! If you’re looking for someone to spend extended periods of time with your furry companion, I’m your girl! On top of house sitting, I’m also available for walks and drop in visits. I always make sure to follow instructions left by owners as closely as possible. I want you and your pet to feel comfortable and at ease with my care! I do my best to keep dogs exercised as needed so you have a sleepy pup by the end of the day.

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 have had dogs in my life since I was 8 and spent a summer in high school raising my family’s new puppy. My family has had frenchies, a labradoodle, and a corgi/beagle mix I have experience with small dogs such as frenchies and larger dogs as well. I work full time, 8 AM - 5 PM. I also am a mom to an infant. I am available for drop ins, and for walking as needed. Although I do not offer services in my home, due to my cat being afraid of other animals, I will treat your home as my own. I am experienced with house sitting and take pride in making sure you never have to worry about anything while away.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and started watching dogs for family and friends while in college and couldn't have my own. I've enjoyed watching pets for my loved ones and now that I am in a house and working remotely I want to be able to provide my pet care experience to more fur babies. While the majority of my experience is with dogs I've also taken care of cats, fish, anoles, bearded dragons, rabbits, chinchillas, and hedgehogs. I'm open to caring for all sorts of animals and I'm able to be flexible with your needs. I work outside the house part time so when pets are with me they are my first priority and I only accept pets when I know I have enough time to give them all the attention they need. I have caged animals that I let out when I can supervise them so they house is animal proofed and anything potentially harmful is locked away. I have baby gates that can be put up to keep puppies/ elderly dogs from falling down the stairs. My back yard is enclosed on 3 sides by fencing and would be watched and leashed at all times when outside.

About: I know, we all say it, but I truly love dogs, they are one of my greatest passions. I have always had a dog throughout my life and have experience volunteering at various shelters. I'm a runner and have run with many dogs, including pit-bulls so I can handle almost any dog. I have not only had dogs but also cats, chinchillas and birds. I tend to be the person in the family where I'm every family members dogs favorite person. I suppose they can just tell just how much of a dog person I am. I am grateful to have found a opportunity to care for other's lovely furry creatures! I am currently very flexible, working very part time so I'd be available almost any time of day. My boyfriend Bill also helps me out on Rover so your dog (s) would get plenty of attention. Well, thank you for reading and I hope to hear from you! Woof Woof Woof I’m a stay at home mom so I’m home most of the time. This gives me the flexibility to be with your pet most of the day. We have a large fenced in yard with a dedicated dog space and an attached run. I am always outside when dogs are playing outside.

Katherine is a great sitter and has been taking care of my 2 pups for several months now but much more often due to work and trips. I can’t thank her enough for the care she has given them whether that’s her doing drop in visits or my dogs being boarded at her place. She treats them with great care and goes above and beyond to ensure their safety.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Parma

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Parma is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $22 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,492 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Parma. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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 sitter.
