“Kaylie is amazing and made sure to give lots of updates and photos. She was a fantastic sitter for my pup and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future!”
“Amanda is great. Unfortunately she got unexpectedly sick with the Flu. However, she is AMAZING on communication and care, so we were able to work everything out. She handled it very professionally.”
“Elizabeth took great care of our 2 year old dog, Rory. She was completely reliable, sent lots of pictures, and we could tell he was well loved when we returned home. She left our house very clean and communicated well with lots of pictures while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Having Madi stay with our dogs was fabulous! They were happy and well taken care of. There was no hunger strike or readjustment period as in the past :) Madi was great with communication!”
About: I have 10 years of hands-on experience caring for my own Chocolate Lab, which gave me a strong understanding of the love, patience, and attention dogs need. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, companionship, and lots of affection. I truly enjoy being around animals and will treat your pet like family. 💜 I work full-time during the week, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pet care during evenings and weekends! - Boarding: Available Thursday evenings after work through Sunday. I work remotely on Fridays, allowing me to be home and provide extra attention and companionship throughout the day. - Dog Walking: Available Monday-Thursday after 5:30 p.m., Fridays after 1:00 p.m., and anytime on Saturdays and Sundays. I live in a clean, comfortable two-bedroom apartment with plenty of space for your pet to relax and feel at home. I can also accommodate crating if needed and will happily follow your pet’s usual routine and any specific care instructions. I’m fortunate to live near several walking trails and dog parks, making it easy to provide plenty of exercise, outdoor adventures, and fresh air. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being and will treat your fur baby with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. My goal is to make sure you feel confident and at ease knowing your pet is in caring, responsible hands. 💜
About: Hi, my name is Tina! I grew up on a farm in rural PA which has provided me with a lifetime of caring for animals. I actually cannot remember a time when I haven’t had a pet. When I moved to Cleveland I didn’t know anyone here and I was working 12 hour night shifts. With my work schedule (and before Rover), finding dog sitting/walking was tough. Now that my job has become more flexible and I have the luxury of providing pet services, I want to make this task as easy as possible on you and your pup. I am comfortable giving both oral and injection medications. I am pet first aid and CPR certified. And also carry full pet liability insurance. My love for animals doesn’t stop at dogs. I can also drop-in to your home to look after your cats and other pets (birds, fish, rodents, reptiles, etc) - I have experience with them all. *Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate high energy dogs at this time* I am a registered nurse who works on an as needed basis so I am home most of the day except when I am out providing dog walks and drop-in services. My partner (Rick) works from home 100% of the time so there will always be at least one set of eyes, if not two, on your furry friend. *All of my clients will receive photos daily.* I know it’s hard to leave your doggo behind, but I will ensure that they are well cared for while you are away. We have a quiet, comfortable, clean home for your pup to enjoy in a safe and friendly neighborhood. We have a spacious, fully fenced in backyard with a doggie door that will fit up to 40lbs - meaning your dog will have 24/7 access to the outside. And pet cameras to watch them on if we so happen to not be home. We currently have 2 rescue dogs and a cat in our home - all of which are spayed/neutered, up to date with vaccines, and are non-territorial with new dogs. Whether it is humans or animals - providing loving care is my passion. I will treat your furry family member as one of my own.
About: My family has had dogs on and off since I was little. I've always loved dogs of all ages, breeds, and abilities. I have my own Mini Goldendoodle sister named Harley! We got her when she was just 6 weeks old and she's now 5 years old living her best life :) I especially love taking Harley for walks as it helps me to get my own exercise. I make sure to play with her often and give her lots of cuddles. Anything to make sure she feels safe, loved, and healthy! I am a young professional working a full-time remote job in Higher Education. I typically work 8:30-5pm Monday through Thursday and 11:30-8pm on Fridays. Weekday nights and weekends I'm usually available! I keep Harley on a leash when she's in the backyard and on a leash during walks. We mostly only feed her dog food with the occasional fruit, vegetable, or treat after research. She sleeps in her crate at night and she stays in her crate when no one is home. Depending on the care you need, I would treat your furry friends the same as my own with the same safety cautions and care.
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’ve been taking care of dogs since I was little, and there has always been a dog in my family. Last October, I unfortunately had to put down my dog of 14 years. She was my best friend, and I miss her dearly. Since I’m not quite ready to have another full-time dog, I felt that caring for other people’s dogs would be the perfect way for me to still spend time with them. I’ve always enjoyed going on walks, visiting parks, or simply spending time outside with dogs. I truly believe dogs have such short lives, and they deserve to be loved, spoiled, and cared for every single day. Watching a dog fits naturally into my daily schedule because I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m already used to planning my day around walks, feeding times, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s going for walks, spending time outside, or simply giving them attention and companionship, I enjoy making dogs part of my routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I make sure they receive plenty of love, patience, and care throughout the day. I provide a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment for every dog in my care. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy time outside. I understand how important trust is when leaving a pet with someone, and I treat every dog like family by making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.

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.
“Lisa is amazing! She was able to help us out last minute and took such good care of our doggies. She sent us so many photos and videos, and I could tell our dogs were getting all the love. Would absolutely book her again!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Parma Heights
Daisy has the top two qualities you want in a pet and house sitter - communicative and trustworthy. She made sure she knew the cat and house routines before we left and gave me daily photo and text updates. Returning home to find the cat happy and the home is perfect order means I’d be happy to hire Daisy again and you should too.
Kayla went above and beyond our expectations. She stepped up to take care of our 2 dogs very close to the dates of our trip after another dog sitter had to cancel. There were photos of our “girls” every day. And then she cleaned up the house and washed her bedding before she ended her stay.
Cameron did a fantastic job with our two dogs. He was communicative with us while we were out of town and proactively sent us updates on what was going on. He took great care of our house as well. I would definitely refer him to a friend and plan on working with him again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Parma Heights is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $73 per night. 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 1,306 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Parma Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Parma Heights walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Parma Heights maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Heights 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!
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 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
