“Jenni was great to work with for my pup’s care. She was responsive and clearly likes pups. My dog can have separation anxiety and not be willing to eat but he did well and seemed content. I would use her again and recommend to a friend”
“Samantha was wonderful! So friendly, communicative, and clearly took great care of our dog, Finn. He’s 11 and can be a little finicky when staying somewhere new, and she even made him fresh eggs (his favorite breakfast topper) to encourage him to eat. She sent lots of photos, kept us updated, and made sure he got plenty of exercise and attention. We’re so happy to have found a great local sitter and hope she can watch him again!”
“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”
“Ralph was amazing, he accommodated our girls and treated them as if they were his own. He ensured that they were the only clients he had during their stay to make sure they were comfortable. He sent so many photos and made sure that we knew that were well cared for during their first stay with him. There was no doubt. Our large breed is shy and after our first meet and greet, she warmed up to Ralph so easily and she does that with no one. He has a way with animals that makes them feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Ralph but I would like to be able to book him in the future 😉”
“We can't say enough about Margaret and the care she took of our beloved dog, Maisy. She sent many updates wih great pictures and we felt so comfortable that we had left our dog , for only the second time, in he care. Her dog and cat were also so welcoming to our dog which made her first experience with other pets a great one. We highly recommend Margaret to take wonderful care of your dog too.”
“I highly recommend Derek to watch your dog while you are away! He took great care of my precious dog Lola! He made sure she ate well, exercised a lot and felt comfortable in his home. Derek provided daily photos and videos to me that calmed my fears of leaving her and being so far away. His dogs are very friendly and welcomed Lola into their environment. I really think she enjoyed her vacation more than me and had such a good time! She has been sleeping the next day away much like I feeling like doing!”
“I would give more stars if I could! Keith and Wendalyn took loving care of my darling Penny as if she were their own dog. Lots of fun walka, cuddle time, time outside. They also made sure Penny adhered to her somewhat strict diet but also got to enjoy some treats. Hoping to rebook with them for my next out-of-town trip!”
About: I have a 5-year-old chocolate Lab boy and a 4-year-old Maine Coon boy. They’re best buddies, super friendly, and always happy to make new friends! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was very young age. I work from home Monday through Friday with a flexible schedule. My cat and dog are best friends, they’re very good boys and always welcoming others. Fenced yard with 0.6 acer backyard, so the dog friend can run and play outside.

Owner is responsible for all veterinary costs and medical decisions. Aggression, biting, or repeated dangerous behavior may result in early pickup.
“Christiana was great! Our two dogs seemed to enjoy their time there & especially loved being able to run around in the backyard! She sent us pictures and updates throughout and was very responsive when I checked in with her!”
“I felt totally at ease leaving our standard poodle with Andreja for a 4 day weekend. She sent photos of Ruby my dog, and I appreciated it and it gave me ease in leaving her. Totally trust her and would leave Ruby with her again. Vicki Hudak”
“I had the pleasure of working with Sharon, and I couldn't be more impressed with her kindness, efficiency, and genuine love for animals. She took excellent care of my dog for the day, ensuring he was happy, comfortable, and well-attended to. What truly stood out to me was her attentiveness and calm demeanor, which made the entire experience stress-free. She is clearly experienced, as evidenced by how well she handles her own dogs—a Yorkie and a Shepherd—both of whom are incredibly well-behaved and sweet. If you're looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter, Sharon is absolutely the person to trust. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of quality care for their furry friends!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities for over 20 years.

I’m the proud owner of Kona, my friendly 9-year-old Lab/Shar-Pei mix, and I have two young children who have grown up around dogs and are gentle and respectful with animals. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m available most days of the week and can provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with people, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“Megan and her family took care of Uno for 2 weeks during an international trip. I was nervous to leave him for such a long time, but the communication and care were top notch. Megan sent pictures and messages every day with updates on how he was doing and their fun activities. Uno has a lot of energy and they were super active with him which I so appreciated! Traveling and being away from him was much easier knowing that he was safe and happy. Will definitely book with Megan again!”
“Kelly is the absolute best! Anytime we have to go out of town, we know that our dog is in the best of hands. Constant updates and communication the entire time. We are worried that our dog is always sad to come home because she gets so spoiled staying with Kelly.”
“It was our first time using rover so we didn't know what to expect, but I was extremely comforted from the beginning talking with Michelle. We did a meet and greet where she invited us and Buddy into her home. Rocky is such a great host dog! She sent us pictures of buddy laying on the couch getting plenty of attention. Buddy and Michelle's husband were best pals. I wasn't worried about Buddy for one minute and knew that he was having a blast.”
“Tom, Tolley and Team are always so welcoming and kind to my Boots! They communicate pics too which is so reassuring to see our pup having fun and being taken care of. I have used them often and will use them again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve always wanted a bigger pack. Caring for your dog like family gives them a loving home away from home while fulfilling my lifelong passion for dogs. I work from home during the week so I have the flexibility to give your fur baby play and bathroom breaks as their needs dictate. I have a spacious backyard equipped with 20ft. tie outs for supervised fun in the sun. Two to theee walks a day in the Avondale neighborhood as weather permits.
“Eric and Polly took excellent care of my dog Griffin. They sent me several pictures and kept me up-to-date on how Griffin was doing. I know he got the attention he needed. Thank you Eric and Polly. My dog has an anxiety problem and I think he’s better suited to have someone come in and watch him in his own home.”
“Sabrina is absolutely fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog, followed all feeding and care instructions perfectly, and kept me updated the whole time. I received daily photos updates, and it was so comforting to see my pup playing and settling in perfectly. Highly recommend to anyone in the Avon Lake area”
“David and his family took such great care of our two babies, Barfi and Omi. He treated them like their own and made sure to send lots of pictures and updates throughout the day! We will definitely be keeping David and his family in mind for the next time we are out of town!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sheffield Lake
We had such a wonderful experience with Lea and her boyfriend Sasha! They truly had the best communication we’ve ever had with anyone on Rover. They’re an incredibly nice couple, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Charlie was in such great hands all weekend. They kept him active with tons of walks and gave him plenty of attention. We could tell he’d been very happy and well cared for while we were gone. We couldn’t recommend Lea and Sasha more and will absolutely be using them again!!!
Highly recommend Derek! He took such good care of my dog Lola while we were away for 10 nights!! He sent daily photos and videos of her, which assured us that she was having a great vacation as well. This is the second time Derek has watched Lola for me. His home is a dog's dream as it is set in the woods and very isolated from any traffic. He is definitely a dog lover and cares for his visiting dogs just like his own!
Ralph was amazing, he accommodated our girls and treated them as if they were his own. He ensured that they were the only clients he had during their stay to make sure they were comfortable.

Our large breed is shy and after our first meet and greet, she warmed up to Ralph so easily and she does that with no one. He has a way with animals that makes them feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Ralph but I would like to be able to book him in the future 😉

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Sheffield Lake can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Sheffield Lake home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Sheffield Lake.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Sheffield Lake sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
