About: For three years I walked two leash pulling cocker spaniels. I turned to watching Cesar Milan for tips, soon I had the dogs walking next to me with the leash loose in my hand. Their owner knew when I’d come to walk them, because they would be barking then quit, due to my entrance with no eye contact. As Cesar says dogs sense with their nose, eyes and ears consecutively. The owner made a comment once “oh, Ruthie must be here”. I’m currently working full time. I would be available after 4 pm Monday - Friday. I travel out of town every other weekend for family. It would work better if I could come to your place. I live in a small condo. That way your pet is kept in it’s familiar surroundings.

About: I have 4 dogs of my own and grew up in a family that fosters dogs. I've taken care of dogs with various health issues, varying size, and personalities. I work a part - time job, so I got as much pet sitting as possible in my free time. My availability depends on work, but I'm super flexible as long as I'm given some notice! All the services I offer can be created to future each pet's needs! I'm happy to accommodate to you and your pet. I've grown with dogs and cats my whole life, so I understand how each pet's needs vary.

I am a pre-vet student so I have experience with dogs of all sizes. I have classes during only a few hours of the day so I am feee a majority of the time.

About: I've had a full house of "fur kids" for over 15 years. With the same cat that started my pack, Eko Donald, Annie Rose, whom I've had for 5+ years, with two of her babies, Garfied & Binx, the past 3 years. In additional to my feline pack, current Pooches include, Herbie Don, Athena Marie, Piddle & Frank Barone. Yes! I currently have 4 dogs and 4 cats! Herbie, my "vicious" Pitbull Terrier, came as an abandoned 1 year old, now 7, through the "Lorain County Dog Kennel". Athena, my Senior Farm girl, came 2 summers ago, knocking at deaths door, from a divorce case gone bad for the "fur kids" in a state, KY, that does not protect their furies. So bringing her to the great state of Ohio, protected under Goddards Law, was a no brainer. Piddle, my 4 yr old Shorkie, whose legal name is Thor, was a token of appreciation from one of my School Bus. kiddos. Frank Barone, a 2 yr old Spaniel mix of some sort, the "baby" of the pack, came through the APL, from a hoarding case gone terrible. My "fur kids" are truly the "kids", I was not able to have beyond the only 1 I was blessed with who is now an adult. As a Substitute Teacher, my schedule is very flexible and open to just about anything; especially, during those high in demand, and popular vacation times! Yup! Im an introverted, homebody, who doesn't go too far, often enough. I'm open to individual requests per family, as I've learned, just as humans, fur kids are no exception, in the fact that no two pets, or pet families are the same.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life. I absolutely love animals and my close friends call me “Brigitte Bardot” for an obvious reason. Plus your pets will become bilingual as I’ll speak French with them! I’m retired but still want to remain active. Caring for other people’s pets seem like a good way for me to do this. I am an honest person with no criminal record. I’ve never even been stopped by a police man driving. I am offering watching your pets in your home. Their surroundings are important to reduce stress. As I have two indoor cats, taking other pets into my home is not possible
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my whole life and I’ve had even a few of my own. I’ve made sure they’re fed, bathed and most importantly, loved. I’m currently going to school full time but will have time to make sure your pet is taken care of, fed, and have fun while they’re away from you. I don’t have a backyard, I’m currently renting an apartment. But I’ll make sure to walk your dog around the block and make sure they have time to go to the bathroom.
About: I have had a dog in some capacity for 20 years and friends trust me to take care of their animals while they are out of town. I like to give attention to animals I am a teacher in Sandusky and have good availability in the summer every other week! I am willing to travel a little and make sure your pet is taken care of! I follow the guidelines of each person and am very cautious when it comes to the care of all animals and people. Every person cares for their pet differently and I want to respect that.
About: Growing up, we had a doberman, 2 pit bulls, a boxer and a pointer mix (not all at the same time). I always assisted in care with our family pets, but 3 years ago, when I moved out on my own after graduating from BGSU, I welcomed a black Labrador retriever into my life, and he is my entire heart. Tuco has been my best pal since he was 6 weeks old; he travels nearly everywhere with us. We trained him on our own, and perform all of his care tasks. I’m currently working as an educator, but when school releases for summer break, I will have much more broad availability! Right now, I am only available after school. I would treat any pet as if it were my own— pets are not just pets, they are more like children and are family, and they deserve to be treated as such. I have much experience working with reactive dogs, and understand that it is not my job to train your dog, but to interact however I am asked and encourage positive behaviors. I am a strict rule/expectations follower, and the more you are communicating with me about expectations the better. I love loving on and tending to pets emotionally, as I love my own dog more than most humans.
About: With over two decades of hands-on pet care experience, I provide loving, reliable, and personalized care for your furry family members.

As a lifelong animal lover, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in safe, compassionate hands. Whether it’s for a weekend getaway or regular visits, I’m here to help keep tails wagging and whiskers happy! I work a full time sales job where I set and dictate my own schedule. I can work from any location at anytime, including nights, holidays, and weekends! I will follow any and all instructions that you dictate for care of your pet in your home! I am comfortable providing all food, sleep, and medication instructions, along with following any routine they may have ensuring for a smooth transition when you return home. They will be treated just as if they were my own. Your pets safety, health, and wellbeing are my #1 priorities!

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 Port Clinton 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.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
