Personalized care for your dog or cat - Rocky River

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Rocky River
“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.”

“Brendan and Sarah took amazing care of my little man for 4 days! They kept me updated, sent lots of pictures, and gave my dog lots of love and snuggles. I was referred to these two and I felt so comfortable knowing Tito was in great hands. I was questioning if Tito was going to even want to come back home with all the fun he was having! I can’t think those two enough for all the great care they gave Tito while I was away.”

“Westley was in good hands with Rachel. I could tell he was comfortable with her from the snuggling pics and happy when he would get the zoomies with her! I didn’t have to worry.”

“Summer was amazing with my dog! She definitely cared for him like he was her own. She sent lots of pictures and videos showing what a good time he was having! I would definitely recommend her! Will definitely book with her for my upcoming summer vacation!”

“We had a great experience with Karin! It was our first time boarding our dog, so we were nervous, but Karin sent lots of pictures and updates. Would very happily rebook!!”

“Eric & Polly were great with Nyx and sent us lots of updates. They were also super responsive. She seemed confortable with them by the time we picked her up. Thank you!”

“Roselie and Kevin were amazing! Provided frequent updates and pictures to ease my anxiety as I am very new to Rover and having someone else care for my pup. Katrina seems to have had a great time and I would recommend them to anyone who wants to ensure that their pet has a safe place to be taken care of while they’re away!”

“Shannon and Robert were absolutely wonderful! Their family is so kind, and their children were great with Henry. He settled in right away and honestly didn’t seem like he wanted to leave when we picked him up. They kept him active all day, so he came home happy and completely worn out (in the best way!). We’d absolutely trust them with Henry again and look forward to booking with them in the future.”


About: I have had dogs my entire life and have dog sat many pups in the last 4 years! I love watching dogs and currently have my own dog! I am home most of the time! I work part time as a nanny 3 minutes down the street from my house! That is only 4 days a week tho, for the most part the rest of my week is fairly flexible! I will care for the pets I watch however the owner prefers! I can offer a loving sitter when needed and will make sure the dogs get lots of exercise, play and cuddles!
“Kyra was fantastic taking care of my mom's dog when she was in the hospital unexpectedly. He is a rescue and very skittish, but Kyra made him feel comfortable and right at home. She also sent photos and updates every day. Highly recommend Kyra for your furry family members!”

“Marla was so good to my Holly girl. We both felt comfortable with her and I really appreciated the daily photos and updates of Holly. Will definitely book with Marla again.”

“Gareth was amazing!! I was nervous about boarding my dog as it was my first River experience, but it was such a breeze. I got constant communication, his dog Millie played with mine the whole time, and it made me feel so much better about traveling for the first time without the pup. Will absolutely ask them to sit again!!”

“Jennifer and her family were fantastic hosts for Blake. They took the time to understand his special needs and quirks and took very good care of him. Thank you!!”

“Miranda and her family took excellent care of our pups. We left Coco and Gizmo with them for 9 days, and they came back happy, healthy and full of vigor. They keep a clean, organized, odor-free home (even with dogs of their own), with an ample, enclosed backyard. We are fortunate to have found them.”

“Lea was great with our boys! We asked her to watch them during Thanksgiving weekend and she gladly accepted our request. I was pretty nervous because our dogs have never been around children for long periods of time but she sent the most ADORABLE pictures f our dogs hanging with her two younger boys and my heart almost burst. Our boys came back exhausted so you know they had a great time playing with them. She's very accommodating with whatever we needed to feel comfortable with a first-time sitter and we will DEFINITELY be calling her again!”
“Julie and her family are AMAZING! Take great care of our Sadie , send lots of cool pics, and constant updates during her stay. Highly recommend Julie’s services to everyone ! Thanks Julie ! Tim, Pam, and Sadie Anderson”

“Chelsea is amazing with responsiveness and attentiveness. I felt very sure that my dog was being taken care of appropriately and lovingly while away on vacation. She sends updates and makes sure your pet is also happy while you’re away.”

“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.”

“I can’t begin to say enough about Lynn. With just moving to Cleveland and not knowing anyone here, it was hard for me to leave my 15yr old Pomeranian Walter with a stranger. He had only a handful of people I would leave him with back home and with all of his health issues I was concerned of his needs being met. Lynn went above and beyond her call of duty as a sitter. Sending messages, pictures and updates every day. This made my vacation 10 times more relaxing knowing he was well taken care of like he was one of hers. Thank you so much Lynn!”

“Tyler helped us for a drop in visit with our 12 week old puppy! He was very attentive. We had a video call before hand to go over all instructions. I would definitely book him again!”

“I booked Kristi on short notice to watch 2 kittens I am fostering and she was wonderful! The kittens really took to her and she did an amazing job! I will absolutely book her again!”

About: I noticed I’m always offering to take care of everyone’s pets in my personal life (HUGE animal lover) so I figured it’s time to join Rover. I’ve taken care of other pet owners cats, dogs, and rabbits in the past. I’ve had cats, dogs, and rabbits as pets as well as hamsters, goats, ducks, and fish growing up. I grew up in a small town in Ohio and my grandparents had a farm so I was around farm animals often. I don’t currently have any pets of my own as I work 10 hour shifts 4 days a week (nurse) so I would absolutely LOVE to watch and walk your pets whenever I’m not at work! Since I work long hours and am not in a good position to get a pet of my own at this time, I would love nothing more than to share the love with your pet(s). I do have a full time job but I’m available on weekends and evenings after approximately 6:30pm (perfect time for walks!). I also have one off day during the week that rotates. I do not have any pets of my own so your pet would have my full attention (also a plus if your pet does not get along well with other pets).
“Emily took such great care of our kitties showering them with love and sending us updates and pics so we could see them while we were away! Will definitely use Emily again in the future!”


About: Hello! My name is Kaitlyn and I am a 4th year veterinary student about to start my job as a veterinarian. I began working with pets 12 years ago at a local rescue where I grew up in Florida. Since then I have had a plethora of experience with all types of animals. I have worked in a shelter, many small animal general practice hospitals, cat cafes, a wildlife rehabilitation center, triage student for the veterinary emergency department at my veterinary school, etc. Throughout the last 12 years in addition to my many volunteer and working experiences, I have also looked after family’s and friends pets when needed. Due to having pets of my own, I provide drop in visits and walks right now. However I am open to discussing any additional visit types on a case by case basis. I currently have a ton of availability while I await starting my full time job and am able to spend a lot of time with your pets 😊 Don’t worry! Once I start my full time job (in July) I would still love to continue providing care to your pets during weekends and after work. Your pets safety and happiness are the utmost importance and I am to create a great relationship with not only your pets but you to create a stress free and enjoyable environment for everyone. Feel free to reach out anytime with questions or comments about your furry friends. I am very quick to respond and would love to chat about how I can help with you and your pets needs!

“Leslie took very good care of my two kitties for a week, dropping in twice daily to feed and interact a bit with them while I was gone. She sent pics daily too, as well as brining in the mail and even going the extra mile to do a bit of watering on the back patio per my request. I would highly recommend Leslie!”

“Mariah was incredibly respectful, caring, and kind when it came to caring for our two cats. We received a plethora of photos each day. She played with them, checked their litter box, and cuddled each and every visit. Our cats were thrilled. She was flexible and attentive to their needs. I highly recommend her to anyone that would ask!”


About: I've taken care of cats for many years, and have experience living with cats also. I understand that each cat has different behaviors, and I am attentive to those by giving undivided attention to your furry friend. I have experience giving wet food, cleaning the litter boxes, and wrangling outdoor cats into the house at night. I love giving cats cuddles, and getting the zoomies out by playing with strings, and balls, and would be open to going on cat walks too! Rest assured that your sweet kitty is in loving and trusted hands and will be treated like family!
“Mitchell was great with my cat! He sent pictures and videos every day during his check-ins. He was quick to respond to messages and easy to work with.”

“Megan was great! Experienced, mature, reliable, and, of course, great with cats. She sent a photo at each visit and I could relax, knowing my pet was being well cared for”


About: I’ve taken care of cats of every kind since I was 8 years old. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to care for their furry ones for as long as I can remember. I would be so happy to sit for your little ones too!

“Joyce took wonderful care of Smooshie. When I got home later in the day, he was a happy sleepy pug. Joyce was great at communicating during her visit too, which is so important with an older dog. So happy that we met her through Rover!”

“We are really thankful to Alicia for taking such great care of our precious boy. She followed the provided instructions really well and it's clear that she is very passionate about animals and her profession, and she's very professional and personable. We would certainly recommend her services to others and would utilize them in our future need as well.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my entire life. I currently have a small Havapoo, but have had big dogs, cats, bunnies, and guinea pigs. I have experience with training, as well as administering medicine if need be. When I first moved away from my family, I was so nervous to try to find care for my pup while I was away! I am so thankful I have had amazing experiences with Rover, and I’m excited for the opportunity to give others an amazing experience, especially those who may be a little weary and nervous like I was at first! I work from home Monday - Friday, and have flexibility on the weekends so your pup will be in great hands with round the clock care! I have a fenced in yard and a very friendly Havapoo that is dying to keep your fur baby company! If staying in my home, I will absolutely follow any special instructions or needs for your dog to make them feel right at home and keep them in their routine. For clients home, I will always make sure I leave the home the way I found it, and of course keep your fur baby in their routine!

About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 10 years and have had them my entire life. I currently have two of my own and understand the wide range of feline personalities — from affectionate lap cats to shy or independent kitties. I volunteered at an animal shelter where I worked closely with feral cats to help socialize them for adoption. That experience taught me patience, respect for boundaries, and how to build trust at a cat’s pace. I’m comfortable caring for senior cats and those with medical needs, including administering oral medications and monitoring appetite, litter box habits, grooming, and behavior. As an incoming medical student, I pay close attention to detail and prioritize consistency and routine. My goal is always to make your cat feel safe, calm, and secure in their own home.

I give them attention so they know that they are loved and cared for. If the cat at my place is an issue he could stay in the bedroom for the time being

I stay home so your pet will have plenty of company! We have three young girls who absolutely love playing with dogs. They are gentle and dogs always love them.
About: Through years of dog training, fostering, volunteering, and working at a dog daycare, I have interacted with and handled hundreds of dogs in my life. I own Beegan K9, a dog care services company that emphasizes lower volume than other local competitors. My 4000 square-foot facility located at 2080 West 110th street serves as a dog daycare and boarding facility. For daycare, we take on only 12 dogs a day. I am at my facility every weekday from 6am until 6pm. Throughout the morning I handle daily daycare dropoffs and work with my training dogs. In the afternoons, we run small, highly-supervised playgroups. Members of my community trust me to take care of their dogs and I take that responsibility very seriously. Before Beegan K9, I had house sat and fostered dogs for around seven years. I also have three dogs of my own. Working with dogs is an integral part of my life and I take their care very seriously.
“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!

“Mariah’s services are the BEST! I have never once had ANY issue with Mariah nor has Bronx. When your furry loved ones are excited and smiling when she arrives you know they are in good hands. Bronx loves Mariah and I couldn’t feel luckier. She goes the extra mile to provide thorough services. It’s obvious she genuinely cares for animals and isn’t just in it for the buck.

I figured having a fur buddy for company would be a great way to spend my time. I usually have three days off a week so I’m flexible.

About: I started fostering dogs in grad school, where I was an active member of the local APL and formed an advocacy group to create and sustain the local dog park (an abandoned baseball field that we turned into a puppy paradise). On my foster journey, I quickly became the cliche and officially adopted my dog of 14 years, Rufio, after only a few hours. I found Ruf--a Rottweiler/shepherd mix--wandering down by the river, and we were best buds by dinnertime. Over the years, I continued to foster dogs and Ruf and I loved sharing our home with a revolving cast of characters. Sadly, Rufio passed away this past year, but the love is still there, and my partner, Hannah, and I are thrilled to fill our days with doggos. After 13 years in the corporate world--during which I became one of the youngest executives at a local Fortune 500 company, leading three teams totaling over 40 employees--I've decided to pivot back to my passions. I've never been happier than when I spent my days fostering dogs, so pet care has my full attention! I have a fenced in yard and I live a hop and a skip from a number of parks, including Lakewood Park, Webb Park, and the Rocky River Reservation (and dog park)! I'm very active, and I love taking pups around town (or simply hanging out, for our elder statesmen). I want to provide individual care to any pups staying with me, so I only board one dog/family at a time (I am happy to take multiple pups from the same household)! So, your dog(s) will have my full attention and you won’t have to worry about any socialization issues.
“Amanda was awesome. My usual walker had an emergency and Amanda was so great to walk my dog Lucy and visit my 2 cats this week. Super kind and the pets loved her Thank you Amanda!!!”

We’d absolutely trust them with Henry again and look forward to booking with them in the future.”

I work part time as a nanny 3 minutes down the street from my house! That is only 4 days a week tho, for the most part the rest of my week is fairly flexible! I will care for the pets I watch however the owner prefers! I can offer a loving sitter when needed and will make sure the dogs get lots of exercise, play and cuddles!
“Kyra was fantastic taking care of my mom's dog when she was in the hospital unexpectedly. He is a rescue and very skittish, but Kyra made him feel comfortable and right at home. She also sent photos and updates every day. Highly recommend Kyra for your furry family members!”

“Marla was so good to my Holly girl. We both felt comfortable with her and I really appreciated the daily photos and updates of Holly. Will definitely book with Marla again.”

“Gareth was amazing!! I was nervous about boarding my dog as it was my first River experience, but it was such a breeze. I got constant communication, his dog Millie played with mine the whole time, and it made me feel so much better about traveling for the first time without the pup. Will absolutely ask them to sit again!!”

“Miranda and her family took excellent care of our pups. We left Coco and Gizmo with them for 9 days, and they came back happy, healthy and full of vigor. They keep a clean, organized, odor-free home (even with dogs of their own), with an ample, enclosed backyard. We are fortunate to have found them.”

“Lea was great with our boys! We asked her to watch them during Thanksgiving weekend and she gladly accepted our request. I was pretty nervous because our dogs have never been around children for long periods of time but she sent the most ADORABLE pictures f our dogs hanging with her two younger boys and my heart almost burst. Our boys came back exhausted so you know they had a great time playing with them. She's very accommodating with whatever we needed to feel comfortable with a first-time sitter and we will DEFINITELY be calling her again!”
“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 chocolate Lab Bruno sprints from my car to her door every time I drop him off there. Needless to say he loves staying with Jenni and her family,and we have the peace of mind knowing he is loved and well taken care of.”

“Abby had a great time at Tom & Tolley’s home. They have 2 sweet, gentle dogs that will get along with any dog. Tom sent pics and a video of Abby’s stay. Abby enjoyed the morning walk, fenced in yard and the family in the home. It was a great experience as this was my first time using Rover.”

“Sarah was amazing! She was very kind and flexible with my booking. She sent me lots of updates and pictures. She took great care of my pup and I would highly recommend her to anyone for their dog sitting needs. Thanks!”

About: I was four years old when I began training our family dog. I was home alone for a few hours and crafted a special bond with our purebred Rottweiler named Zeus. Sometimes I get along better with animals than people, probably because my family has always bred dogs and treated them as part of the family. My parents helped me train our multiple dogs as the years went by and the most important lesson I learned was patience and consistency. I will treat your pet as a member of my family! I have a park a block away from my apartment and I love finding creative ways to entertain and teach animals. I can't wait to be a part time parent to your animal! I am very flexible so please don't hesitate to tell me your needs, even if they seem strange! I exercise my pets everyday and ensure they are training consistently. I currently have a flexible schedule so we can work on your needs and scheduling. My home is puppy proof, along with a gate I use to separate the upstairs from downstairs so my cat can have some peace and quiet lol
“Thomas was great. Our pup had such a great time and he treated him like family. Super responsive and accommodating and sent lots of photos. Will definitely bool Thomas again!”

“My pups were very happy and healthy when I picked them up and incredibly tired from playing in Keeley’s yard! Incredibly grateful that they were in such good hands while we were out of town!”
