“David was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Louis! From start to finish, he was a great communicator — always quick to respond and kept me updated throughout the stay. He sent tons of adorable pictures, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Louis looked so happy and well taken care of in every photo. It’s clear that David truly loves dogs and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re comfortable and cared for. I couldn’t recommend him more highly — I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Karin took great care with my 5 month old puppy, sent photos and was great at communicating what Daisy was doing. It was nice that her dog got along with the puppy and she had a great backyard for the dog to run and play. You can tell that her and her husband love dogs. I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter. :)”
“First time ever doing this! They were fantastic! The dogs seemed relaxed and not overstimulated like we have seen after leaving them at a boarding facility. Would definitely use them again!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for children and managing a busy household, which has given me strong skills in supervision, structure, and maintaining a calm, safe environment skills that translate directly to dog care. I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and behaviors, including high-energy dogs and those who need extra patience or consistency. In my home, dogs are never left unsupervised for long periods. I follow feeding schedules closely, maintain consistent routines, and pay close attention to behavior and body language to keep everyone safe and comfortable. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel secure, especially in a new environment, and I work to make the transition as smooth as possible. I have experience handling multiple responsibilities at once, which means your dog will be cared for in a structured, attentive environment not a chaotic or unpredictable one. Safety, supervision, and communication with owners are always my top priorities. I maintain a structured daily routine, so dogs in my care get consistent supervision, feeding times, potty breaks, and play. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2pm, with flexibility for drop-off and pick-up times. Dogs are rarely left alone for long periods, and I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and calm downtime throughout the day. My home is set up to be safe, structured, and comfortable for dogs of different temperaments. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and two friendly dogs who are used to being around others. I closely supervise all interactions and can separate or crate dogs when needed to ensure everyone stays safe. I follow each dog’s routine carefully and pay attention to behavior and body language to prevent issues before they start. Owners can expect regular updates and a calm, well managed environment.
“Summer was perfect, from her communication to professionalism to just being completely understanding of dogs and pet parents. I was comfortable with my decision from start to finish. She asked questions if she wasn’t sure and left me tons of videos and photos to keep me updated. She has been my favorite and I will be using her services again (most likely only her lol, thanks Rover)”
“Stacie and Doug were amazing. My dog has several medications she needs to take throughout the day and she is older. They were wonderful about keeping me updated on her stay with them. It really gave me peace of mind as I was on vacation. I will be booking with them again soon …highly recommend Stacie and Doug.”
“From the moment I met Barbara I knew my pet would be safe with her. Skai took to her right away. Her home was peaceful and welcoming. Barbara kept me updated- assuring me our dog was doing well. I will definitely use her services again.”
“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!”
“Fantastic short stay for our large dog. My dog is shy and can sometimes struggle with new environments. We were given the flexibility of a meet and greet, but even without, the numerous photos were reassuring of my dog’s comfortability in Tina and Rick’s home. I am very appreciative of the updates throughout the day and taking the time to go out on walks. Will definitely be a future customer!”
“Sarah and Brandon were absolutely wonderful! They took amazing care of my dog during her week-long stay, and I could really tell they treated her like family. They sent regular updates, photos, and responded quickly whenever I had a question. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in great hands. I highly recommend Sarah and Brandon to anyone looking for kind, reliable and attentive pet sitters!”
“We have used Marcie multiple times now. We never have to worry with her. She takes wonderful care of our dog and spoils him like he is her own. She is super flexible with time last minute changes. We were gone on our dog’s birthday and she sent us pics of him getting special birthday dog treats! Can’t say enough good things!”
“Sligo had the best time playing with Sarah and Brendan’s pups all weekend! Thank you so much for taking such great care of him! We will definitely be using them again :)”
“Andrea was great, she is knowledgeable about dogs and worked with our dog. She was sitting a couple other dogs at the same time and the day I dropped her off , she introduced Daisy to a dog of a similar temperament so Daisy would have a friend. Also we were later than expected getting home and when I asked Andrea said we could pick Daisy up the next morning instead of the night we planned to pick her up.”
“Excellent! Constantly received updates and photos of Frankie. The entire family was very nice and professional! Will definitely book with Swetha again! Thank you!”
“Margaret is amazing! Great communication, and lots of photos showing my pup was having a great time! You can tell Margaret really cares and treated her as one of her own! Highly recommend! 5 Stars!”
“Robert watched Mia at his house overnight for a few nights. He has a great fenced in backyard, perfect for our pup to run and stretch her legs. Mia came back happy and tired out from her running vacation ? We would definitely use Robert again!”
“Lucy had such a wonderful stay with Jenni!! Jenni is so kind, caring, and accommodating. She provided a warm and cozy home and lots of extra attention. Jenni provided daily pictures of activities and walks. We could tell Lucy was well cared for. We are grateful to have found Jenni and to have had a happy place for Lucy to be while we were away!”

“Leah did an amazing job with our cat while we were away! He can be difficult, and she knew how to play it. She was patient while taking care of him. She played with him when he allowed it and gave him space when he needed it. We are grateful, because it allowed us to enjoy our trip and worry less about our anxious boy. We highly recommend Leah for cat care!”
“Irma has been THE BEST CAT NANNY!! I'm moving too far away for her to travel to us, I wish I could bring her with me. I travel for work weekly, 3-4 days at a time and I need someone who is well organized and responsible to come daily. Irma has been there for my girls always, even when delays kept me gone longer than planned and my girls LOVE her. In 7 years of living in Strongsville and having had used 4-5 Rover sitters, Irma is by far the BEST!! Thank you Irma!! 🐈⬛🐈⬛ 💕”
“Marissa is conscientious, friendly, and responsive. She did a spectacular job stepping in to watch and spoil our Loki when we left for a vacation. She asked thoughtful questions that highlighted how she planned to ensure Loki’s needs were met while we were out and touched base with occasional updates or photos via Rover’s messenger (which we are pleased to confirm works overseas with wifi). So thankful we found this service and Marissa, as I expect to find more reasons to travel without unnecessary worry or guilt.”
“Maura was just great. She’s a lovely person, and she took good care of my two cats. When one of them threw up on my dining table, she took steps immediately to save the white tablecloth from stains. I will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: I have had animals/pets my entire life. I treat them like if I had children. I love spending time playing, loving and making sure animals have a happy and full belly. I currently have 2 cats and a 1 year old pitbull. I think it’s important to love an animal just as you would a family member and to make sure they feel loved. I have created a bond with every animal that I have had and also with friends pets as well. I grew up with a corgi and then 2 basset hounds and have always had cats around as well. I love helping and spending time with animals, it has always been a passion of mine and I would love to help your animals get what they need. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule. I can be available at odd times of the day if needed while you are not home. I have a friendly dog at home who gets along well with other pets. We go on regular walks and have lots of playtime everyday. We do not have a fenced in yard but we are always outside together on a leash and have a runner for playtime. We go on regular walks at the metro parks.
About: I’m Alyssa, a loving and reliable cat sitter who truly understands feline personalities. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or a total cuddle bug, I’ll make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to help with feeding, litter box care, and playtime!
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and needs. I helped train service dogs, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to read behavior closely. I’ve also raised three puppies, so I’m confident with training, routines, and high-energy dogs. On top of that, I volunteered at the Parma Animal Shelter throughout high school, working with a wide range of temperaments. I’m comfortable with everything from playful puppies to more sensitive or older dogs, and I make sure each pet gets attentive, personalized care I’m currently working part-time, but I’m a college student home for the summer, so I have a very flexible and open schedule. I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, or extended care, and I can easily adjust my availability to fit your pet’s routine. Whether you need consistent daily visits or last-minute help, I’m able to be reliable and accommodating. I care for pets in the client’s home so they stay in a familiar, low-stress environment. I stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions or medications. I make sure they get plenty of attention and care, keep their space clean, and adjust to their personality and energy level. I also provide updates so owners know their pet is safe and well cared for.
“Christina has been awesome spending time to get to know my two dogs, even though one of them is people-phobic. I appreciated her suggestions on ways to try to ensure my little dog takes her medications. She is very caring and enjoyable to work with.”
“Erica did a great job with my cats. She even got my shy one to come out and play! The daily pictures made me feel comfortable that my cats were well cared for while I was away. Thanks, Erica!!”
“It quickly became clear to me that Nicole is a true animal lover at heart, which gave me so much peace of mind while she cared for my fur babies. She kept me updated, shared wonderful photos, and spent genuine quality time with my two cats. I could tell they were well cared for and loved while I was away. So grateful. Thank you, Nicole :)”
“Alicia was phenomenal, she provided excellent care for 4 cats, 4 snails, and 2 hermit crabs. I cannot recommend her enough. I was out of state and she handled making a run to put a new battery in the garage door opener. I felt so at ease knowing she was there.”
About: I’ve had a family dog in my life as long as I can remember. Currently own a well socialized and trained German shepherd. She loves walks and meeting new dog and human friends. Currently working night shift (7p-7a). I am very flexible to check in on and walk dogs during normal business hours. Message me for your daily walking needs. I have a pet of my own who loves to go on walks, well socialized, and is crated when I am not home. I am very active outside of walking/running my dog.
About: I have taken care of cats and kittens in every stage of life for over 20 years. I have raised and loved 6 of my own fur babies! I am proficient in administering medications and keeping litter boxes of varying types clean and tidy!

“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tom and Tolley (and their sweet and kind children) provided for Rudy! From the start, communication was excellent—they kept me updated and made me feel totally at ease. They have a great backyard that gave Rudy plenty of room to play and burn off energy. It’s such a relief to know Rudy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Tom and Tolley!”
“We came into Cleveland for a few days and wanted to bring our mini poodle. We didn't want to leave our dog in a crate at the Airbnb all day while we explored the city, so we decided to send her to Roselie and Kevin. They were both SO nice and accommodating. Our dog was well cared for. I would highly recommend booking your pup a stay with Roselie and Kevin.”
“Walker had an amazing time at day care while we were at a wedding! We recently adopted him and knew he would be hesitant, but quickly warmed up and had a great time!!”
About: I've owned and cared for a lot of different animals since I was 7, ferrets, rats, mice, fish, dogs, cats. I have senior animal care experience, and experience giving animals medication on a schedule. I've had my own dog Pinky since she was a puppy, so I'm sure I can handle any rambunctious pups! I have some cat stuff, even though I don't own a cat. I have a cat tree, scratching posts, cat toys. I'm a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to care for your beloved pets! I'm available for you to drop off/pick up your pets on weekends and weekdays from 8am - 10pm I have a Large fenced in back yard, and plenty of time to take dogs on walks. I have a small 5lbs Chihuahua named Pinky, she likes cats and medium to small dogs (big dogs make her a little nervous, but we are working on that). Pinky is crate trained, so if your fur baby is crate trained I'll have no problem letting them out in the morning, and putting them in at night. If you have a senior animal, or an animal that needs medication, let me know all of the care details, so I can keep them on schedule and keep them comfortable and cared for!

“Thank you, Michael, for keeping our pup for the day! We enjoyed the photos and videos throughout her day and how happy she looked. I can tell she had fun playing and was loved in your care! We’ll definitely be back!”
“Hong did a fabulous job taking care of Rover. He seemed like he did not want to leave her house when I picked him up. She took a ton of pictures so that I was able to see how much fun he was having during his stay. I will definitely be letting Rover stay with Hong again soon.”
“Jeffany was amazing! We were in need of a rover sitter as our other recently moved, so I'm so grateful to have found Jeffany! Our pup absolutely loved running around in her lovely, spacious backyard with the other pups she was taking care of at the time. Jeffany was super easy to communicate with and sent multiple updates/photos throughout the day which I really appreciated! I would definitely recommend and we will be booking again for sure! :)”

“Mariia was amazing! She accommodated me last minute and was super understanding and easy to communicate with. I was just thankful to have someone to even watch my pup but she gave her amazing above and beyond care- taking her on a 45mn walk and sending me updates so i wouldn't worry. Mariia is very caring and professional and I would absolutely recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pet. Thanks Mariia!”
“Sierra went above & beyond caring for my 9 month old golden when I was very nervous about leaving him with someone new, with an older dog. Sierra took them on a 1.5 mile walk before working at home herself, sent a TON of cute pictures to ease my anxiety, fed him his food & vitamins on schedule, & was very communicative during my dog’s 14 hour stay. She is absolutely wonderful, & for someone who has a very small circle of who they trust with their pup, she is one of them!! Would hire Sierra any day!”
“Anastasia was unbelievably accommodating for my last minute booking. She kept me updated on how my dog was doing throughout the day, which left me with a huge sense of relief. Her two dogs kept mine entertained and exercised - huge bonus! I will definitely be booking with her again.”

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.
“This was my first time using Rover, and I’m so glad I got to use Maddie. She took such good care of my dog during their time together. She’s a dog mom through and through and knew all of the important questions to ask before their first walk. She actually went above and beyond on a few occasions 💩. Maddie provided thorough feedback after their walks and alerted me to anything I might need to monitor. I trusted her completely with my dog and my home.”
About: Hello! I would love to be a full time dog mom but until then I’d love to shower your pet with love! I have been housesitting/pet sitting for many years now and for multiple wonderful families. I love big dogs, small dogs, cats, turtles, guinea pigs, chickens and even spiders!! I am completely comfortable administering insulin and giving oral meds. I also understand pets have different diets. I’m able to walk multiple dogs at a time and understand each has their own distinct personality 🙂 I am an honest and trust worthy and come with references if requested. So go ahead and enjoy your vacation or get in a full days work. Let me take care of your beautiful pet(s)! Animals bring us comfort and joy, let us take care of them ☺️ I have a pretty open schedule. Right now Wednesdays I take care of a 5 month old baby, one American Eskimo with an ACL repair and one orange playful cat. It is important to follow the needs and wants of the pets owners as they know their pets best and I take care of their pets accordingly.

About: PLEASE READ: I have started my own dog walking and pet sitting business and would like to grow it there rather than on Rover. If you are interested in hiring me, please search on Facebook or Google "Rachael's Dog Walking and Pet Sitting" or message me for the links, my website, or email. You can still read much of my current information here. I worked as a professional pet sitter for one of the biggest pet sitting companies in the Cleveland area for 2.5 years and have done pet sitting on my own since then. I have experience caring for many different types of animals of all ages and sizes. I have taken care of them when the owners were on vacation; feeding, giving medicine, walking, etc. I also do dog walking visits during the day for people who are at work or sometimes still home. I have had my own dogs, cats, and other small animals my whole life. I currently have a very part time remote job as a social media coordinator, and have recently started my own dog walking and pet sitting business and also do occasional freelance graphic design and photo editing. I am mainly looking to work in mornings and afternoons on weekdays, but can occasionally do nights and weekends too. I am available for daily dog walking in cities near Olmsted Falls, and can do occasional pet sitting in farther cities. I have professional experience caring for animals and being in client's homes. Before I worked as a pet sitter, I even cleaned houses for 4 years, while people were away, so I can be trusted in people's homes. I always make sure to hold a dog's leash tight, and make sure no pets get out when I come and go through a door. I also always make sure the door is locked when I leave. I will meet you and your pets before services begin to go over everything so I know exactly what to do and make sure the pets get to know me first.
About: i’ve taken care of dogs as long as I can remember, cats since I’ve moved out of Home, and families farm animals since I was a young girl. I loved every second of it. I work as a server during the week, and a bartender on the weekends. I am off pretty much all day, working late at night while the animals sleep. Perfect animal mom! I am very observant of what an animal might it need from me. If they want to cuddle or be pet, played with, or pictures taken steps away! I don't discriminate i love them all!
About: My pet care started when I was 6 years old, I was known as the neighborhood dog catcher. If any of my neighbor's dogs got loose/ran away they would call me to bring them back. I had a 100% success rate every time! I have a love and passion for all animals and it has shown since I could talk. I have 2 dogs of my own, a snake, and fish! One of my dogs is reactive and I have taken online reactivity classes to recognize dog body language and how to work with triggers, so the "problem" dogs are no problem to me! My other dog is a senior so I also have personal experience with senior care and taking things slower for the seasoned pups. All dogs are welcome here! I have very flexible availability and I am willing to work with everyone on getting dates and times that work best for their pets needs! I pay attention to body language and focus on providing a calm and nurturing environment where your pet feels safe and loved. I carefully follow directions and make sure you have total peace of mind while your pet(s) are in my care!

“Karin took great care with my 5 month old puppy, sent photos and was great at communicating what Daisy was doing. It was nice that her dog got along with the puppy and she had a great backyard for the dog to run and play. You can tell that her and her husband love dogs. I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter. :)”
“First time ever doing this! They were fantastic! The dogs seemed relaxed and not overstimulated like we have seen after leaving them at a boarding facility. Would definitely use them again!”

“Sligo had the best time playing with Sarah and Brendan’s pups all weekend! Thank you so much for taking such great care of him! We will definitely be using them again :)”
“Andrea was great, she is knowledgeable about dogs and worked with our dog. She was sitting a couple other dogs at the same time and the day I dropped her off , she introduced Daisy to a dog of a similar temperament so Daisy would have a friend. Also we were later than expected getting home and when I asked Andrea said we could pick Daisy up the next morning instead of the night we planned to pick her up.”
“Excellent! Constantly received updates and photos of Frankie. The entire family was very nice and professional! Will definitely book with Swetha again! Thank you!”
“Margaret is amazing! Great communication, and lots of photos showing my pup was having a great time! You can tell Margaret really cares and treated her as one of her own! Highly recommend! 5 Stars!”
“Lucy had such a wonderful stay with Jenni!! Jenni is so kind, caring, and accommodating. She provided a warm and cozy home and lots of extra attention. Jenni provided daily pictures of activities and walks. We could tell Lucy was well cared for. We are grateful to have found Jenni and to have had a happy place for Lucy to be while we were away!”
“Amanda was very responsive, respectful, and understanding. Unfortunately, my pup started showing some unexpected behavioral issues we hadn’t seen before, which led to ending the stay earlier than planned. Amanda quickly notified us and followed our instructions to ensure everyone stayed safe until we arrived for pickup.”
“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.”
“My dog Kai absolutely loved Martha!! She is so sweet and you can tell how much she loves and cares for animals! She sent pictures of my dog, washed his blanket and toy because he spilled his water on them, and is extremely flexible. I will definitely be using her in the future!!”
“Leo and his family took good care of my dog. Oreo enjoyed his stay and was so happy with them. I appreciate their flexibility with schedule too, so that I have enough time to get myself and my family settled.”
“Miranda & her husband took great care of our dog while we were gone for 6 days. She sent us updates which were appreciated. Recommend booking with Miranda & will use her again in the future.”
“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.”
“Kenzie and Jared gave Winston a home away from home when we had a long trip he couldn’t come on. Kenzie was great at keeping us updated and was very responsive to any questions we had. We will definitely be rebooking for future needs and 10/10 recommend!”
