Highly-rated overnight sitters - Strongsville
“Cosmo had his own vacation while I was away! Michael & Regina took excellent care of him, and I got frequent updates to let me know how much he was enjoying himself! Highly recommend these excellent pet lovers.”
“Jeffany was absolutely wonderful with our little pup Lucky! She and her partner are so warm and caring, you can tell instantly that they truly love the dogs they take care of. I knew Lucky would be in the best hands! They took such great care of him and went above and beyond when he had some tummy troubles. We got lots of pictures and were able to rest easy knowing he was having fun and getting lots of cuddles. Lucky also really enjoyed their huge fenced backyard…I love that he can go there and play outside in a super secure area. We are so thankful we found Jeffany and will definitely be reaching out again soon for her to watch Lucky!”
“Karin and her loving family provided such an excellent stay for my precious puppy, I was afraid that he wasn't going to want to come home! Their commitment to providing a safe home made me feel very comfortable leaving for my 10 day trip, and I enjoyed it even more seeing all the photos of my boy having such an enriching time! I will absolutely be booking with Karin again.”
“Can’t recommend Archna enough! We’ve used her in the past and will continue to use her for our 6 year old shepherd. Very communicative and responsive and takes great care of our girl. Our dog is truly a member of our family so finding someone who will give her personal attention and treat her as a member of theirs is very important to us. Knowing she’s is such great hands allows us to really be able to relax and enjoy our vacation.”
“Keeley was accommodating and communicated well. Our dog, Mia, had an amazing time during her stay. Mia got to play with her kids and dogs. We are so glad to have found a caring and loving sitter for Mia. Thank you Keeley!”
“Jason was super helpful with our last minute request to have Blu stay with him. He was very understanding of our situation and we really appreciate him helping us out! Will definitely use Jason in the future!”
“Summer was awesome! She sent pictures, responded quickly and cared for my pup with lots of love. I plan to refer her to friends/family and I will be booking again in the future.”
“Caroline and Samuel were fantastic with my dog Netty. They were flexible with pick up times and they genuinely care about your dogs well being and happiness. The updates they sent made me smile and reassured Netty was in good hands. Their dog Winnie is adorable and eager to play with your dog any chance she gets! 100% recommend booking with them! Will book again soon. Thank you for a great experience”
“Lynn always goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for my 16 year old chihuahuas. She doesn’t just watch them, she loves and cares for them in a way that every pet lover dreams of when it comes to their animals. Along with daily pictures and messages, Lynn even gave us a framed picture of my two pups that I will forever cherish! Could not recommend enough- I even think my dogs were sad when I picked them up because their vacay at Lynn’s was over!”
“My dogs, Ozzie & Elvie, were well taken care of and spoiled by Julie & her son. They also enjoyed hanging out with their dog, Abby and being outside taking walks. Julie was great with updates and photos every day. We will definitely be back!”
“Ramona was a perfect fit for our dog Bodhi. She sent me pics and updates every day and let me know how he was sleeping, eating, & playing. For a puppy/young dog that needs near constant attention when he’s awake, she did a great job of giving that to him. He’s always trying to “get into” something, but he’s the sweetest boy and wants to listen - and Ramona clearly knows her way around dogs. :) We’ll continue to use Ramona as long as she’ll have Bodhi the crazy Weimaraner in her home!”
“Kyra is perfect for our dog Dakota “Koti”. Koti has stayed with her twice and loves her. I think the feeling is mutual! We never want to use anybody else.”
“I think Rudy had more fun on his “vacation” than we did! Tom, Tolley, and the kids took such wonderful care of him during his stay! We loved seeing the updates and photos sent every day. We highly recommend! Thank you again!”
“Excellent! Constantly received updates and photos of Frankie. The entire family was very nice and professional! Will definitely book with Swetha again! Thank you!”
“It was very hard to leave our Hope for so long, but we knew she was in excellent hands. We are very pleased with the care and daily updates via pictures. We will definitely leave Hope with Sarah and Brendon when the need presents itself in the future.”
“As a first time user of rover services, I can not speak highly enough of the great care, new experiences, and love Ron and his wife provided to my staffy, Abra. There were daily updates on how she was doing and photos and video of her hiking experience with Ron. I would not hesitate at all to rebook with Ron in the future.”
“Eric and Polly are fantastic! They are so caring and Colby loves spending time there! We can go on vacation knowing that he feels at home and that he is in a safe and loving environment.”
“Stacey and Doug were so lovely with Papaya. She took to them immediately, and I got frequent updates and pictures! I loved how they brought Papaya into their family! Definitely will be booking again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Margaret! She took such great care of our Lightning, and kept us updated throughout our trip with the sweetest photos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving and capable hands. Lightning looked so happy and relaxed—we could tell she was truly well cared for. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, easy-to-work-with and attentive sitter!”
“Rachel is amazing! She was great at communicating, keeping us updated on our dog, and sent several pictures each day. I would definitely recommend her to others and I would pick her again to watch my dog.”

“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.”
“Irma did such a great job taking care of my cats! She was able to give my one cat his medication and clean up not so fun messes from my other cat! I’m grateful for her to handle those things and gave her a pre warning about my messy cat and she had no issues and was able to help! Thank you so much Irma! 😁”
“Archna was great with Rilo! She spent lots of time with my cat brushing and playing with him and showed him lots of love. She sent great updates everyday as well. Would definitely book her again. Thank you!”
“Leah did an absolutely outstanding job attending to our five little darlings, i.e. cats, twice a day. She provided us with updates on how they were eating, what they were doing, and how they were interacting with one another while we were gone. As a bonus, she provided photos of our cats to let us know that they were each alive and well and enjoying themselves with Leah in our absence. The photos were so wonderful and professionally taken, that they warmed our hearts and provided reassurance every single day. She obviously has a real affinity for cats and any other pets she cares for. And finally, our personal interactions with Leah were always a delight.”
“Julia was fantastic! She was kind, compassionate, and caring towards my kitties and she followed my instructions perfectly (since I have a cat that needs medication). She helped ease my anxiety, gave me updated pictures daily, and was quick to respond if I had any comments or questions. I will absolutely be using her services in the future!”
“Michelle took great care of my elder cat in failing health. It was obvious, from her reports and photos, that his routine lifestyle was lovingly maintained. The feedback helped me enjoy my vacation without worry. I will ask for her again in the future.”
“Kenzie was so wonderful! Our dog is very nervous and she was so amazing with him. We also have a cat with medical issues and she was perfect with him as well. She’s the best!”
“Monika and her family were amazing! Super friendly and communicated well! I felt comfortable leaving for a few days while she provided multiple drop ins for my two cats. One of my cats is on daily medication multiple times a day which was not a problem for her. I felt like my cats were glad they had visitors!”
“I have really appreciated Makaila taking care of our cat while we were gone. She always goes above and beyond, and even went out of her way to get supplies for Buddy when we ran out. She is truly amazing and will always book with her! Your pet is in excellent care with her! Thank you Makaila!”
“It was great having Erica watch over my cats! One of my cats needed medication twice daily and she was always on top of making sure that happened. My cats aren’t always easy with strangers and she did great! I would highly recommend her and will use her in the future!”
“My cats were so comfortable with Jordan! I loved the photos he sent after each visit. It gave me peace of mind that my little guys were well taken care of while I was away. Highly highly recommend Jordan!!!”
“Ellen was amazing - sent me pictures each time she stopped in to take care of my cat, and was always very responsive and quick at responding! My adult senior cat needs some extra attention, and Ellen did just that! Will definitely be using her again. Thanks, Ellen!”
“James was fantastic with our cats. He had thoughtful questions prior to us being away, and was really communicative during our time away. He went above and beyond when we had a sensor issue with our Simplisafe alarm system.”
“Pierre was amazing! I put in a last minute request for Pierre’s drop in services during the holidays and he quickly responded. He sent multiple pictures per visit with my kittens being feed and litter boxes cleaned daily! He even grabbed my packages and placed them inside for me. Thank you, Pierre!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Kelly! She connected with our dog immediately, and it was so reassuring to see how comfortable our pup was with her right away. Kelly is incredibly professional, always on time, and has a calm, relaxed demeanor that puts both pets and owners at ease. Beyond just watching our dog, she went the extra mile by offering helpful, actionable suggestions on how to handle our dog's pulling during walks, and she even recommended some great, durable toys that are perfect for our "super chewer." We are so happy to have found her and will definitely be booking her again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Strongsville

“We really appreciate the Rover service we got. Our PAWsome sitter, Abby A. took the time to meet with us before taking care of our precious baby goldendoodle -Winnie. We also love that she is absolutely great with pets and took the time to understand the rest of our needs and requests for our fur-baby. Thank You! Will definitely request again!”
“Nicole was great. Set up a meet n greet w her 2 dogs a cpl days I’m advance to make sure the dogs were acclimated. Quick and easy drop off and pick up process. My dog came home happy as can be. Will definitely be going back when needed”
“I can’t say enough good things about Mariia! She took great care of my dog, Hazel. It’s clear that she genuinely loves dogs and takes the time to understand each one’s personality. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Hazel was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I got back. Highly recommend!”

“My Gus was very comfortable during a day long stay at Ramona's home. He's a rambunctious six month old and Ramona handled him calmly and didn't get rattled by his 'puppiness.' Thank you!”
“Our family loves sending our beagle to Swetha! We were in a pinch and needed to find day care for our pup with separation anxiety and a bit of a rascal side. We sent a list of dates and she replied immediately and said she could accommodate all of them. Pros: 1. Communication - She messages you throughout the day with pictures and videos, and sends a daily report. 2. Pet care - At the meet and greet, you discuss everything your pet needs including meal times, medicines, bathroom breaks, behaviors, etc. She works hard to ensure your pet receives the best care. Our dog is not left alone and gets plenty of attention which he loves. 3. Exercise - She takes our dog outside for bathroom breaks and walks. He also gets plenty of exercise playing with her dog and any other dogs in her care. Our pup comes home tuckered out! Cons: 1. Your dog may not want to leave! I would rate more than 5 stars if possible. She is very friendly, caring, communicative, and accommodating. If you want your dog to be in a safe and loving environment with attentive care, you should book with Swetha!”
“Makenna was very sweet and took excellent care of Stella. Stella was not stressed out when we picked her up and we can tell that she was very comfortable with Makenna.”
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 care for every dog like they're one of my own. My home isn't run on a strict schedule instead, dogs become part of our daily routine. We start our mornings by getting up and heading outside to play, and on weekends we spend lots of time outdoors enjoying the yard. During the week, I work from home, so the dogs hang out with me inside and get plenty of attention throughout the day. They have opportunities to go outside whenever they need to, and I make a point to get everyone out at least once every hour. My goal is to provide a relaxed, loving environment where dogs feel comfortable, safe, and right at home. 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.
About: My husband and I own a very sweet, playful Great Dane/mastiff and a pure bred English Mastiff. We have experience with all kinds of dogs and other animals. We have a large finished upstairs where our dog loves to run and play. We have a large backyard that is fully fenced/gated. We walk daily (in nice weather). We have fun toys to play with and a whole room for your dog to sleep in (instead of a cage) but if your dog prefers a cage we have a huge one he can sleep in (or you can bring your own). 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: I have a high-energy dog that has prepared me in all aspects of pet care! I am well-versed in on- and off-leash exercise and have plenty of ideas for indoor enrichment activities. Having raised my own dog from 6 weeks old, I’m familiar with all of the accidents that can happen when pets are home alone. I’ve also cared for elderly and medically-complex dogs. I work remotely during the school year and have summers off. My work is in pacific time, giving me plenty of time in the morning to take your pet on a walk, play outside, or just keep them company. Of course, when I’m off in the summer, I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets! I am open to the safety, trust, and environment guidelines set by each pet owner. As the owner of a needy dog, I understand that each family has different preferences for keeping their home and pets safe!
“Our pups had a great time! Carla accepted our booking the day of after we had another one cancel. She kept us up to date with photos & videos. Would definitely book with her again if we return to Cleveland”
“I cannot express enough how amazing Samantha is!! I needed a last minute sitter for my goldens and she responded within minutes that she was willing and available. She sent the cutest pics of the dogs throughout the day and it was clear the dogs were having the best time! You could see how happy and cared for they were with Samantha! I will book with Samantha anytime I can in the future if the pups need a sitter! She is AMAZING!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I've cared for pets for years, helping with walking, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays. I love going on walks and enjoy a good amount of play time. Whether it’s a high energy dog or a senior, I adjust my care to fit their personality. I have a relaxed work from home environment that allows me the flexibility to attend and care for your pet. There will be no lack of attention when they're in my care. I allow dogs the freedom to roam my home and yard as long as they're well mannered. If not, then I have a gated and fenced area for them to roam in.

I ensure to follow all the rules as requested by the owner however am only looking to book dogs that are ok with other dogs. I have a crate and plenty of dog toys.

About: I've assisted in taking care of my parent's dogs for years, from a grumpy old man dog to a chaotic 6 week old puppy, whether that be playing, making food, going for walks, and cleaning up accidents. I also have experience with provided medicine as needed. I am very flexible with timing as long as I know a week prior, but if it's short notice, I am mainly available in the mornings up until noon. I make sure to play, regularly let them go to the bathroom outdoors, feed them at appropriate times and if they want their space then I respect them.
