“Andrea is amazing! She understands dogs and makes sure they are comfortable, safe, and happy. Plus she groomed our Samoyed before we picked him up -which is no easy task! Definitely booking with her again.”
“Angela was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our dog! From the moment we met her, we could tell she genuinely cares about animals. She was attentive, responsible, and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy and well cared for when we returned. Angela followed all of our instructions perfectly, including feeding instructions and walks. We will definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
About: Hey there! I’ve had a variety of pets throughout my life since the age of 5 and have always deemed myself to be a patient and loving care-taker. I’m my friends first call whenever they need some extra pet-related help. Genuinely would have several fur babies of my own if I could, so I figured this would be the next best option. I have the flexibility to work from home whenever needed, and can step away for walks as long as I don’t have conflicting meetings. I’m available for boarding during the week and on weekends! Overall pretty flexible schedule. I don’t have any pets at home and live in an apartment by myself. Therefore can devote my full attention on your pet! Although I don’t have a yard, I do have parks and grass areas nearby.
“Angela is amazing and did a great job keeping us updated on our pup! We knew he was in great hands. So appreciated her communication. Our dog did great with her pup!”
“I was very comfortable with leaving Mellow with Angi. She sent me pictures and kept me up to date on how he was adjusting to new surroundings. I definitely recommend her services.”
“We are sooo pleased with the great service Tove and Gerald provided. They really made Levi part of their family while he was there. We will not hesitate asking them to watch our precious boy again!”
About: Hi. I’m Clifford H’s Wife. I help him take care of your fur babies and absolutely love all of the personalities that they bring. I’m normally behind the camera taking the pics, thus I don’t have many with me in the shots. So, to not waste any time; go check out his profile. You deserve that vacation, staycation or time off; go book with Cliff. I work remotely with occasional days that I need to report to the office. My home office has my desk and “a few” dog beds and lots of plants. The house sits on a 1/4 acre lot and has a huge fenced in back yard. We converted the sitting room to the dogroom as we crate (where size allows) the dogs at night for sleeping. Go see Cliff’s profile-he’s got all the details.
“Great Sitter, and person, did an amazing job at communicating, and sending pictures, as well as giving Onyx his medicine. 10/10 recommend, would definitely book again”
“Kaitlynn was great! I loved that she updated me on how my puppy was doing, i was a little nervous because she's anxious around people but wants attention at the same time. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Riya is a phenomenal sitter, she has taken great care of my dog and is a wonderful communicator. I can travel stress free knowing my dog is in good hands.”
“Lorie took great care of our senior dog who has lots of medical needs. She is warm and compassionate and clearly loves all of the doggies as her own. She sent us regular updates and pictures while we were away. We felt like our dog was in better care with Lorie than when we have boarded him at the vet - and he was definitely more comfortable with a home environment. Thank you, Lorie!”
“Bri I wanna thank you so much for your boarding service! You are God sent. You loved on my baby, kept me informed, sent pictures and treated him like your own. You took great care of my Brawny! I am looking forward to booking with you again! I appreciate you!!!”
About: I have tons of experience taking care of numerous dogs from when I babysat during high school and college years. I currently have a 10 year old bichon frise named Bentley, who is updated on all of his shots and am very knowledgeable in training, walking, feeding, health, and playing with dogs. I am currently a stay at home mom to a 4 and 6 year old and have a pretty flexible schedule. My husband Landon has had dogs all his life and would be around if any emergencies arise. I have a fenced in backyard, which is in a nice, suburban neighborhood with lots of sidewalks, grass, and amazing parks nearby for me to walk the dogs. I have a phenomenal veterinarian that is not too far or there are plenty of veterinarians in the area for emergencies, an animal hospital opened on weekends, and a pet store about 5 minutes away. If you want your dog to be well taken care of and have fun in a safe, friendly dog environment then chose me! I'm currently a stay at home mom with family support nearby so I'll have plenty of time to take care and play with your pups/cats! I will follow all rules provided by the client and make sure every pup/cat is well taken care of. If you need me to do another small chore, just let me know!
“Chelsea was simply amazing. Her lovely family took care of my dog Lola the best possible way. From morning walks, slumber parties, and daily photos Chelsea went above and beyond to ensure that my dog was loved and well cared for.”
“Wonderful pet parents- took fantastic care of my little guy. Sent great updates while he was there. They obviously have many many years of pet ownership and of pet sitting experience. And their little dog is adorable and got along extremely well with mine. I know he is looking forward to his next visit at their home!”
“Flora was very good with my pup, she sends pictures and gave him a lot of exercise. I love that she gives a list and time of everything they did during the stay.”

Travis was great with my dogs. Our Flight back was delayed. He was very understanding of the situation and thoughtful. My dogs seemed to have had a great time with him, they were great spirts and excited when I arrived. This is my second time using Travis and I will definitely use him again.
Lana was absolutely wonderful, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided for Lucky. From the beginning, she was kind, attentive, and very easy to communicate with. She regularly sent me photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to see that Lucky was comfortable, happy, and being well cared for throughout his stay. It was clear that Lana treated Lucky with a lot of affection, patience, and attention. Leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, but she made the entire experience feel easy and reassuring. When I picked Lucky up, he looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I’m truly grateful for everything she did and would not hesitate to leave Lucky with her again in the future. I highly recommend Lana to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and trustworthy sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Lucky!
Another wonderful stay for my pups. This was the first longer stay for my pup, Teddy and he can be nervous with new people. Seeing pictures of him playing with the other pups and cuddling with Susan and Jason made me so happy. I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter for my two dogs.
she always does such a great job and is so amazing about keeping you in the loop and updated, i was away for about 11 days and i have a puppy and a senior pup and her and Colt (her pup) were such amazing sitters and were so great with both of my pups for the long stay 🐾 🦴 💜

There are 876 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Shaker Heights. About 94% of Shaker Heights sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
