About: I have had dogs my entire life, as well as pets like fish, guinea pigs, gerbils, hamsters, etc. I own three dogs right now, I take them on daily long walks and I have personally trained them myself. I have also had experience with aggressive dogs, I am good at reading them and calming them down. I am passionate about any animal, and will negotiate prices. I am in the Cleveland area, I am an attorney but would love to care for animals in my free time. I am responsible and respectful of other people's property and of course, their animals. I am trustworthy and willing to work with all types of dogs in order to make a client happy. Please contact me anytime, I would love to meet your fur baby and become great friends! I have three dogs - I wake up around 6am for feeding, potty time. I work from home, so I am constantly checking on my animals and I am capable of walking them through out the day. Dinner is usually served around 5pm. Bed time around 9pm. I have a fenced in yard, I will provide your animal its own space and a happy loving environment. I am an animal lover and will also send lots of fun pictures on our adventures.

“Sophia is so sweet! She’s helped look after my cats during a few extended work trips and was happy to help when they needed medicine or special instructions. Now whenever I’m planning to be away, booking Sophia has become routine. The cats are typically shy but they sure like her and she goes above/beyond every time.”

About: As an animal lover, I know pets are family—not just animals. I take pride in giving them the same love and attention they get at home. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just extra cuddles, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and stress-free while you’re gone. As an elementary teacher, I have a structured schedule that actually works really well for pet care. I’m available before and after school, in the evenings, and on weekends. During breaks and summers, I have even more flexibility, allowing me to provide extended care, walks, and drop-in visits. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I focus on making them feel loved, safe, and comfortable—whether that’s sticking to their usual routine, giving them extra playtime, or just spending quality time with them. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From childhood through adulthood, I’ve regularly spent weeknights and weekends caring for pets of friends, family, and neighbors—feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. Whether it’s an energetic pup who needs exercise or a more relaxed companion who just wants company, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care—not just a quick check-in. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. In a client’s home, I stick to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and of course lots of love and attention. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos. If pets stay with me, I create a calm, safe space where they can relax and feel comfortable. I supervise closely, keep them on their usual schedule, and make sure they get plenty of interaction and care.

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! My name is Molly and thank you for considering me to spend some quality time with your pup! I have four years of professional pet care experience, along with personal pet care experience since I was 12 years old. I recently moved back to Cleveland and am ready to start pet sitting again! (Is the reasoning for my low response rate, as I took a break during the move) I love caring for and having a dog around, so sitting with Rover is the perfect job for me. I can match whatever it is your dog's needs are, as I have a very flexible schedule. They love the beach/dog park? Happy to take them. They don't do well with other dogs? I can make sure to avoid any encounters. I am happy to follow every and all instructions to ensure your pet has the most comfortable stay possible with me. I have an extremely flexible schedule all week long, and I prefer to be left detailed instructions as to how you usually care for your dog to ensure they are receiving the same care when you are gone. Happy to walk and feed multiple times a day if necessary I live in an apartment complex that has a park within the building and a full outdoor park right outside. I have plenty of great accessible places to walk the dog around the building.

I can send a more detailed schedule if you’re interested. I live with 3 other people so there’s usually someone home for most of the day. I have a 4 year old cat as well who does fine with dogs.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends for many years. I love to play with the kitties, go on walks with the pups and just generally hang out with your furry friends! I work about 30 hours a week in food service, usually between 8am-5pm. My job is close to my house so I don’t have much of a commute either. So I have ample time to check in/hang out/go on walks with any of your furry friends! I am clean, tidy and will leave it how I found it! I like my own environment to be neat as well. Cat toys on the floor are fine tho!

About: I currently work as a pet sitter through a professional pet-sitting company, where I complete multiple visits each week caring for dogs and cats. My responsibilities include feeding, refreshing water, administering basic care, medication administration. cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience with pets of different temperaments and energy levels, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine and personality. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or spending extra time playing and giving attention, I focus on making each visit stress-free for both pets and their owners. I currently work full-time, so I’m primarily available for morning (AM) and evening (PM) visits on weekdays. I can also provide drop-in visits during my lunch break when needed. I have full availability on weekends, which allows for flexible scheduling, longer visits, and additional care as needed. I’m happy to work with clients to find a consistent routine that fits their pet’s needs. I prioritize safety, consistency, and building trust with every pet and home I care for. I follow each pet’s routine closely to help them feel secure and reduce stress while their owner is away. I always pay attention to details like feeding instructions, medication needs, and home care guidelines. I treat every home with respect and care, ensuring doors are secured, instructions are followed exactly, and pets are kept in a calm, safe environment. My goal is to build trust with both pets and owners by being reliable, communicative, and attentive during every visit.

About: For the past four years, I’ve been actively involved in running a busy in-home dog boarding and daycare business through Rover. While my former partner handled most of the client communication and scheduling, I was heavily involved in the day-to-day care of the dogs and was responsible for making sure they were safe, happy, exercised, and well cared for throughout their stay. I regularly cared for multiple dogs at a time, including dogs staying with us 24/7. My responsibilities included taking dogs outside every 1–2 hours, supervising playtime and group interactions, providing exercise and enrichment, cleaning up after them, and paying close attention to their individual personalities and behaviors. Over the years, I’ve learned a great deal about dog behavior and how to safely manage different temperaments, energy levels, and personalities. I became comfortable introducing dogs to one another, supervising group play, recognizing when dogs needed space or a break, and making sure every dog was comfortable in the environment. I also handled a large part of the cleaning and daily upkeep, including deep-cleaning the dog areas, washing food and water bowls, maintaining a clean environment, and making sure the dogs always had a safe and comfortable place to stay. One of my favorite parts of caring for dogs is making sure they have a great experience while their owners are away. I love playing with them, giving them attention, taking them outside, and getting great pictures and updates for their owners so they can see how much fun their dog is having. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and after four years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in a busy boarding and daycare environment, I’m excited to continue doing what I love and provide that same level of care to Rover clients and their pets. This is what I do and have done for a living for the last 4 years, prior to this I was working with my former partner under her rover account, plenty of play time for your pups! I can handle any dog of any temperament or behavioral issues that may require additional safety precautions. I go outside with the dogs in my care ever 1-2 hours, whether it be a group play session or 1 on 1 play. I tailor to every dogs needs.

Melissa was great, very conscientious and patient with my nervous dog. He warms up to people slowly, and she took it at his pace and adapted when he was too nervous to follow the routine. She also paid close attention to the medication schedule for three of my geriatric pets. Excellent communication and care.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our boys receive with TJ! He is reliable, kind and clearly loves treating our pups like they are his own! He cares to understand our boys personalities and keep us updated after every walk. His report cards are personal, funny and so well written! It’s very reassuring to know our babies are in such great hands! I’m afraid our dogs might start loving TJ more than us!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Rocky River

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Rocky River is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 2,109 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Rocky River. 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.

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 Rocky River 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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

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

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rocky River. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
