About: I've been caring for animals of all kinds since I was 12 years old, and for the past two years I've provided professional pet sitting for cats, dogs, and small animals. My experience includes overnight care, drop-in visits, feeding, exercise, habitat and litter box cleaning, medication administration, and plenty of companionship tailored to each pet's individual needs. I'm experienced caring for both playful kittens and puppies as well as adult pets, and I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine. For active dogs, I'm happy to include them on walks or runs (with owner approval), while cats enjoy interactive play, enrichment, or even supervised outdoor time using harnesses or pet strollers when appropriate. I also have three guinea pigs of my own, giving me hands-on experience with the daily care and habitat maintenance required for small animals. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs extra attention, I'll provide patient, reliable care and treat them with the same love and respect that I give my own pets. Pet care is a regular part of my weekly routine. I work full-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate midday drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and small animals for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box or habitat cleaning, and companionship. I'm available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays after 3:00 PM. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I strive to provide dependable, attentive care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication, and any special care instructions you provide. I also keep owners updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. For energetic dogs, I enjoy staying active and regularly go on morning runs and afternoon walks. If your dog enjoys exercise and you're comfortable with it, I'd be happy to include them in these outings to help keep them happy and mentally stimulated. For pets that prefer a slower pace, I'm just as happy to provide leisurely walks, playtime, or plenty of companionship. In addition to caring for dogs and cats, I have three guinea pigs of my own, so I'm very familiar with the daily care and habitat maintenance that small animals require, including feeding, spot cleaning, and enclosure upkeep. My experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets has taught me that every animal has unique needs, and I'm committed to providing patient, attentive care tailored to each pet's personality and routine.

I booked Sydney when my pup was on crate rest after an IVDD injury and I needed someone to come check on her while I was at work and administer her medications. My dog is not an easy pill taker and Sydney did a fabulous job every time. It was such a relief to have Sydney there to check on my baby. I have already re-booked her to play and potty my pup while I’m at work!

Brooke took wonderful care of my cats, Mochi and Casa, during five drop-in visits. She was reliable, punctual, and gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and photos she sent after each visit. I would definitely book Brooke again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

I needed help giving allergy shots to my wiggly dog and am not able to do them myself. Luckily I found Christian through this site! His experience was priceless! He was responsive, kind, helpful, and took time to show me how I can make shot giving with my dog the best possible experience. He was quick and my dog liked him after and tried following him out the door! That never happened at the vet or when others helped! Very accommodating. I can’t thank him enough for his help!

Brittany was sooooo helpful! She responded to my messages quickly, was flexible with arranging a meet & greet and she truly went out of her to give my dog so much wonderful attention and affection. Upon meeting her it was clear she is an animal lover. She followed my instructions to a T and has been incredibly respectful and responsible. 10/10, would recommend.

About: I grew up always having a dog around the house, mostly boxers, so I love taking care of dogs and it is like second nature for me. For the past couple years I have worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility where I cared for all different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have experience giving medications, feeding, bathing, and walking all types of dogs including puppies, seniors, and those with special needs. I am a full-time college student but I am able to stop by multiple times throughout the day. I am available all evening/night and in the morning. I am completely free every weekend so I can spend as much time as possible with your dog. I can happily spend hours with your dog whether we are playing, walking, or relaxing. I can easily crate dogs, administer medications, and accommodate specific dietary needs. I also know first aid for dogs in case of any emergencies.

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs since I was five. I grew up on a farm and understand the anxiety that a pet owner has when going on vacation and finding someone to love their pet as they love them. Well, have no fear! I am here to save the day! I am a school teacher by day and dog caregiver by night! I am happy to spend all my afternoons with your pupper or kitty cat! School is starting so availability unfortunately has become a bit more limited, but I will do everything to work with you and to care for your dear sweet fur baby regardless! I will travel to your home to ensure that your pet is in a familiar space. I will give them daily snuggles, walks and attention. I will treat your pet as if they were my own loving on them and treating them. I am happy to take them on daily walks, to the park and to stay the night at your place.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have grown up surrounded by cats and dogs. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me! I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and simply spending time with your sweet friend. I’ve also worked at a dog daycare, which gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. My husband and I will do our very best to create a calm and comforting environment for your pet. I’m happy to stick to their routine, give extra snuggles, or just sit with them quietly if that’s what helps them feel safe. I’ll also send regular photo and text updates so you can see how they’re doing and feel reassured while you’re away. I’m currently a nursing student, so my schedule will depend on my classes and clinicals, but I won’t be working another job so it gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. Whether you need help with daily care or overnight stays, I’m happy to come to your home to feed, walk, play with, or simply keep your pet company. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities and I’ll always care for them as if they were my own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Solon on Rover is $18.32 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 582 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Solon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Solon 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. 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.

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

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.

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.
