“Chris was wonderful! The boys absolutely loved him. We have a stronger/less leash trained GSD I was worried about and he had no issues. He even set up a water station along the walk route to make sure they were well hydrated!”

About: Hello pet parent! 🐾 A bit about me - I had a family cat and dog for around 13 years total growing up. I helped feed, hydrate, walk, clean-up after, bathe, and play with both of them. I also assisted in taking them to the vet and giving them medication when necessary. Outside of my family pets, I have a summer’s worth of experience cat sitting for a family friend and a summer’s worth of experience volunteering for my hometown’s local humane society/animal shelter. Nowadays, the majority of my pet time is spent occasionally dog sitting for my brother and his wife. I’m comfortable with any size pet and am very active, so any pet energy-level works for me! I look forward to meeting you and your furry companions 😊 I am currently a full-time post-graduate student at the Cleveland Institute of Music. I have very flexible hours and I’m pretty available as of right now. I’m always happy to discuss how I can best accommodate your needs for pet care and pet sitting! I work best if clear instructions for pet care are provided before or upon arrival. I love all kinds of animals and I’m always gentle when meeting-and-greeting. If a pet has difficulty adjusting to new people, or general fears/anxieties, please let me know how I can best accommodate you and your pet’s needs.

“Pan I very kind and pleasant to interact with and loves your pet.”

About: I’ve helped take care of and train dogs of various sorts and sizes since I can walk along with my dad. I’ve gotten my love for animals as a whole from him and it’s the perfect therapy and job. Having many dogs, cats, birds, turtles, fish and pet crabs throughout my life has helped me to have an extra sense of care, love, and attention for all animals. I’m currently working part-time, so I’m available to play, train, and care for your lovable furry friend 7 days a week from 8am to 2pm and 9pm to 12am. I have a fenced front yard and backyard for your lovely pets to freely roam and play with me. I also have a 7 year old Shih Tzu and a 2 year old cat (both females) whom are very loving, calm, and ecstatic to meet a new friend. A crate is available upon request as well.

“John is fantastic, trustworthy, and dependable. Looking forward to our future bookings”

About: Experienced dog owner with 3 dogs. Two dogs are reactive/timid, one of which has allergies and pancreatic issues so I am familiar with pilling and dogs with special needs. I am currently a full time law student at Case looking for something with a flexible schedule. I have availability in the morning, late afternoon, and evening as well as weekends. I think it’s important to be attentive to your animals needs, and also make sure to follow the rules of the house. Please let me know if you have any specific dos or donts for your pet!

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, raising and training my Yorkie, Remy, until his passing at 14, and my XL Bully, Zebo, for the past 10 years. Since joining Rover in 2021, I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities—young, senior, hyperactive, and socially reserved. I provide frequent walks, playtime, and even baths to ensure pups are happy, healthy, and cared for like family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a lifelong dog owner, I start my mornings with walks and playtime to ensure pups get their energy out. Throughout the day, I dedicate time to feeding, cuddling, and engaging with each dog based on their needs—whether that’s quiet companionship or active play. Evenings are for winding down with more walks and care, ensuring every pet feels loved and attended to as part of my family. In my home, I create a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel like part of the family. I provide frequent walks, designated playtime, and cozy spaces to relax. Pets receive plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the day, with routines tailored to their specific needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I ensure their routines remain consistent. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime and cuddles, I provide attentive care while keeping their environment clean, familiar, and stress-free. Whether in my home or theirs, pets are my priority, and I treat them as if they were my own.

About: I have primarily cared for dogs, cats, fish, and the occasional hamster. I have had dogs and cats in my life since I was born, from rottweilers to kittens I want to give your animals the love and attention they deserve while you are gone! I am available to check in on animals while you are at work or hang out with them while you are away for the weekend! I live on the first floor in a condo with a grassy area next to it. I would walk your dog with a leash since my yard is not fenced in.

“Alisa was wonderful with my scared and timid pup, Pepper, who requires lots of patience when meeting new people. We look forward to continuing to work with Alisa.”

I am a law student so I love spending my free time with animals to de-stress and have taken care of lots of dogs for family members and friends throughout the years. Your dog will be extremely cared for and will receive lots of love. Although I’m a full-time law student, my schedule is very flexible. I’m able to work around most things as long as I have some notice. I’m very particular and safety is my top priority so I will make sure your dog is well taken care of and all of their needs are being met. I’m also very affectionate so your dog will be getting a lot of hugs!

I’ve been fortunate to be surrounded by loving fur babies all my life and have been trusted by neighbors, friends and families to sit or walk their dogs for over two decades. I am a rescue dog mom of two myself and will treat your fur baby as if it were my own. I have experience nursing newborns both cats and pups, training young puppies as well as giving the extra love, patience and care needed to train/care for rescues and animals with disabilities. I am a current nursing student and mom to a beautiful baby boy. My availability is flexible and I am able to accommodate last minute bookings and have holiday availability.

About: Hello!!! My name is Ella and I’ve been pet sitting for two years :) I have several dogs who I have the privilege of taking care of on a regular basis and would be honored to care for yours as well! I was raised with a dog who is 12 years old and who I have always cared for with great love and attention. I love to play and run around with dogs, talk to them, cuddle with them, and go for long walks. Your dog and me are about to become best friends! I’m happy to host small dogs in my apartment, but always happy to, and usually prefer to stay in your home with your dog :) I am a graduate student studying opera at the Cleveland institute of music and will very happily make up songs for your dog LOL! I am a graduate student at the Cleveland institute of music and within my schedule have breaks and long blocks of time where I can go to hangout with, check in on, walk, and feed pets :) I’m almost always available to spend the night and take care of them in the morning before setting off for my day. The longest I would need to leave a dog alone would be 5-6 at most, but that would be rare. Most often, it would be 3-4 hours or less :) I always appreciate when pet parents create a list for me of things I need to know so I can continue to reference it throughout my time caring for their pet until I get to know the dog super well! I am careful to keep dangerous or toxic things off floors and out of reach, I ensure that small dogs have easy access to higher couches or beds (as long as pet parents allow this), I clean and refill their water bowl every morning and wash their food bowls. I will give your dog lots of love and cuddles and pets and attention and time outside and exercise and plenty of treats!

About: I have pet-sat and dog walked for neighbors and friends since I was 12, and I’m looking to go pro! I’ve watched all ages and sizes of both dogs and cats, as well as the occasional fish and Guinea pig. I’m also comfortable with e-collar and off-leash pets, provided they’re well-trained! I’m currently looking to work part-time this summer, but otherwise am free at all times of day for walks, checkins, or stays. I will be heading back to college in the fall, but I’m running with the dogs all summer. I’ll always try to follow your pet’s usual routine for their day with as much love and fun as possible to ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable with me.

About: Hey everyone, My name is Anna and I moved to Cleveland from the NJ/NY area for medical school. I love spending time with animals and have experience walking dogs and caring for cats. I’ve helped friends with feeding, playtime, and overnight pet sitting. As a medical student with a flexible schedule, I enjoy fitting pet care into my routine as a fun and fulfilling way to unwind. It's a great way to earn some extra money while doing something I love. I’m often available on weekends and weekdays between classes or study sessions. Whether in my home or a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely including feeding, walking, and any medications as needed. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they feel reassured their pet is in good hands.
