About: I’ve taken care of and had dogs ever since I was a little kid. I love them and will always treat your dog like family! I work from home, so my schedule is flexible on being able to watch dogs while at home and taking them out on walks during the week! I live across from a dog park if they are comfortable with going there. There are lots of areas nearby where I can take dogs on a walk! Prefer to board dogs who are crate trained.
“My sitter of 2 years is no longer doing rover and I had to last minute find someone new. Kevisha was on time and handles Jursie well! I came back home and he was a happy pup!”
About: I have always been passionate about animals! My first job was in a pet kennel when I was 15. I walked, fed, and cleaned up after the animals there. I have always had pets in my house and have cared for many pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m currently working full time (three twelve hour shifts) at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. I will usually know my schedule in advance and can move some dates around if necessary. I am mostly free on weekends and evenings. I am very loving and compassionate to pets. I like to cuddle and play with them! I am reliable and timely. I ensure they are well fed, have a clean and safe living area, and go outside when necessary.
About: As a former pet owner I understand how important it is to make sure your pets are safe and comfortable. I have over 10 years of experience with all breeds and types of dogs and cats. I grew up fostering dogs out of our childhood home. I was very involved even at the age of 6. We stopped fostering when I was around the age of 19. I have experience administering medication to dogs. I have experience with training. And I have LOTS of experience, cuddling with dogs🥰 I am currently a part-time RBT. My current schedule is Wednesday, Friday 3:30pm-7:30 and Saturday 9:30am-1:30. I’ll only be gone for around 4-5 hours those days if I do end up staying with your fur-babies I will adjust to your dogs schedule. I love walking and playing with energetic dogs, or cuddling with the sleepy ones! Daily updates are not a problem if you ask for them. However I will send updates sparingly if not requested in respect for personal pace/ if you’re on vacation.
“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: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities for over 5 years—everything from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I’m confident handling dogs with special medical or dietary needs, and I’m happy to administer oral medications or follow any routine you already have in place. What sets me apart is my calm, patient nature and attention to detail. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and stimulated while you’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, cuddle time, enrichment games, or sticking to strict schedules, I adapt to your pet’s unique personality and needs. I am usually available friday to sunday if you want me to stay all the time with your dog. I work full time Monday - Thursday 8 am - 5 pm. I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment where safety and comfort come first. My home is fully pet-proofed with secure spaces for play, rest, and feeding. I only take a limited number of pets at a time to ensure each one gets plenty of individual attention. I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and bedtime rituals to help them feel safe and settled. Also i have a semi fenced yard and not kids or other pets around. When caring for pets in their own home, I aim to be a respectful and reliable presence. I maintain your pet’s regular routine, keep their space tidy, and treat your home with care. I provide regular updates with photos and notes so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Whether it’s in your home or mine, I take safety seriously: doors and gates stay secure, walks are done with caution and awareness, and I closely monitor each pet’s behavior for any signs of stress or discomfort. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.
“Raegan was awesome!! She took great care of my cat. She sent lots of pictures, reassuring me that he was happy and well, even though we were away. She also made sure to stay the full time allotted and keep our kitty company. Definitely would recommend! Thanks Raegan!”
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for my entire life. From volunteering and working in humane societies and other shelter settings, to fostering and owning pets. I am comfortable with basic training and maintenance (cutting nails, brushing, administering meds, etc). I hope you are willing to trust me to care for your pet while you’re away! I currently work a full time job but have a flexible schedule and ability to work remotely. I am available after work and on weekends. I am happy to provide the type of care that you already do or are requesting for your pet. I am flexible and willing to accommodate the way that you are requesting care be given to your pet.
About: From young pups to aging/declining dogs, I have cared for their specific needs. I have also taken care of friendly cats as well as scaredy cats. My personality seems to make animals feel safe and loved. I work part time for The Cleveland Metroparks. I believe health & fitness is good for us and for our fur babies! I can help. I am flexible and can follow the routine you provide for your pet. I enjoy being friendly to all animals and truly care for them.
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.

“Cara was fantastic! She was able to hop in on short notice after another pet sitter canceled. She was on time, followed directions, and my dog loved her. Could not recommend her enough!”
About: I’m a champion for human & pets alike. Familial animals have been apart of my life since I was a young child & the subsequent years into my adulthood. I’ve assisted in the basic obedience training of 10+ dogs both in youth & elder-hood; temporarily lived with anxious pups whilst their parents traveled out of state; & I’ve formed genuine bonds with clients’ pets that I’ve routinely walked & tended to for years now. I’ve departed from traditional 9 to 5 employment to commit myself full-time towards the enriching of relations between all living beings, in particular, one Pet/Parent client at a time! Pet caregiving, dog handling & house sitting are my full-time job! Which fortunately means I’ve got quite a fluid weekly schedule capable of integrating a broad range of client scenarios. Mondays & Tuesdays between 9am and 9pm are my most flexible hours — services needed Wednesday thru Friday can be readily accommodated during our initial consultation. For clients interested in Boarding services - my home is a decently sized, fully furnished apartment with climate control functionality. During their stay with me your pets are welcome to languor however they normally would at home. I strive to make the stay as comfortable as possible for your pets whilst honoring whatever caregiving conditions/training you may request. If house-sitting your home is preferred, you can feel confident that your residence & loved-ones will be tended to with exemplary care & that upon your return home, it will be in the exact same or better condition than when you’d left it!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sheffield
truly can't say enough wonderful things about Marissa! From the moment she came over before our trip to meet our dogs and learn their routine, we knew they were going to be in great hands. She treated our puppies like they were her own. Every drop-in was right on time, and she always sent updates with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. What really sets Marissa apart is how she handled an unexpected emergency. During the hottest week of the summer, our air conditioner stopped working with only 24 hours left in our trip. As soon as she noticed the house was getting too warm, she contacted us immediately. She went above and beyond, helping us troubleshoot the issue from a distance and refusing to leave our dogs alone until she knew they were safe. She even helped get the downstairs temperature back to 76 degrees. When she realized the upstairs was still much too hot for the dogs to be crated overnight, she didn't hesitate to offer to spend the night with them—without us even asking. That level of care, compassion, and dedication is something you simply can't teach. Knowing she was there with our dogs allowed us to relax, even though we were so far from home. She did an amazing job caring for both of our pups—our 150-pound lap dog and our demanding little pitty! They absolutely adored her, and it's obvious she genuinely loves the animals she cares for. If you're looking for someone who is dependable, caring, communicative, and willing to go above and beyond, Marissa is the one. We will absolutely be using her again, even for short day trips. Thank you, Marissa, for taking such incredible care of our babies. We are beyond grateful!

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 Sheffield 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.
