“Everything went super smoothly! I would highly recommend Celine, she took the time to ask questions and get to know our pups and was very helpful. Looking forward to booking her again!”
About: Dog owner for 20+ years. Homeschool mom with all day availability except for on Fridays 9am-2pm. Do not have a pet now and are missing the experience having a dog. Looking to give the experience to love and support to my kids without owning a dog. Perfect for dog walking, playing, and poop picking upping while you are away at work or trips. I currently am only working 9am-2pm on Fridays and am available to care for your pet(s) before or after and every other day of week including weekends! I do not have a fully fenced in yard BUT I do have three fences. I like to be super active and playful with the dogs. I will walk them multiple times a day. I am also willing to take them to the dog park (only 15 minutes away from my house) I will can crate train or let them free roam my house. I treat these pups like they are my own! And I will follow any rules you wish for me to keep up!
About: I attended BGSU, studying Criminal Justice and Forensic Investigation.I am a very outgoing, friendly, and loving person. I recently adopted my cat Gummy. Previously I’ve taken care of my aunt’s 5 dogs (2 of which are seniors) and 1 cat. I am very familiar with animal medications including: pill pockets, ear cream, topical skin cream, and liquid medicine. My cat Gummy has Stomatitis and Stage 2 Kidney Disease so I’m familiar with having to give gabapentin as well as other medicine. I understand the importance of animals who have medical needs and schedules. I love providing the care your fur babies need!
“Brittney was great. My normally shy cats instantly took a liking to her, and she took great care of them while I was out of town. Would definitely hire her again.”
About: With over a year of dedicated pet care experience, I treat every animal like a member of my own family. In addition to providing reliable dog walking and drop-in care, I currently work in professional animal care, volunteer at my local shelter, and am studying to become a veterinary assistant. This extensive background means I am highly skilled at reading animal body language, managing high-energy walks, and ensuring your pet stays safe and happy right in their own home. My goal is to keep your pet's daily routine perfectly on track and give you total peace of mind while you are out. My Availability for Walks & Drop-Ins My schedule is highly flexible and built around my animal care commitments. I am in class two days a week from 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM, and I work my other animal care job on Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays—but my work hours on those days are pretty flexible! Outside of my class times, I have plenty of availability throughout the week for morning, afternoon, and evening drop-in visits or walks. Whether you need a consistent mid-day break or a quick evening feeding, I can easily adjust my calendar to fit your pet's routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. Because of my formal training as a future veterinary assistant and my experience volunteering at the shelter, I am highly attentive to animal behavior, body language, and home safety. During drop-ins and walks, I ensure your home remains secure, double-check that gates and doors are locked, and keep a watchful eye out for any potential hazards. You can trust that your furry family member will always be in safe, capable hands, receiving the same gentle care and respect that I would give to my own pets.
About: I’ve been watching dogs for 12 years. I absolutely love dogs! (Who doesn’t) I know how much your animal means to you and I will treat them like my own. I am currently unemployed, so I have all the time in the world to walk, hang or chill with your dog. The only time I am unavailable are evenings due to volleyball. Other than that, I have a very open schedule. I treat your dog like my own. I will constantly look after them, play with them, train them, if you need, and most importantly, love them.
“Matthew watched our two babies over Memorial Day weekend and he did a great job! The pups warmed up to him instantly. He took lots of pictures and communicated scheduling really well. I had no worries during the whole trip. We will definitely be using him again in the future 😊”
About: I have experience with puppies and seniors alike. For the past 5 years I have been responsible for neighbors houses and their pets as well! I work part time at a restaurant about 5 minutes from my house. I have time during the week and weekends after 2 pm on days that I work, as well as 3-4 days a week that are entirely open. I have two dogs of my own who behave well in our unfenced yard but we have two leads as well. They have a regular meal schedule and get all kinds of love and attention between my mom and sister and me. In a clients home I will treat the dogs as the owner would best advise, I would love to be able to be with the animal if needed.
“Lauren has been amazing with our three doodles. They clearly love their visits with her and it is so nice to know someone has eyes on them during the work day. We definitely recommend working with Lauren!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a kid. I rescued my first baby, Dory, a little over 5 years ago and my heart has never been more full. Since then I have rescued another dog and 2 cats. Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. Taking care of animals is second nature and something I’m truly passionate about. My animals are my world and I am excited to share that love with even more animals. I have a fenced in yard that my 2 dogs love to spend time in. They have an overflowing basket of toys that always seems to be scattered across the house and yard. We take them for walks around the neighborhood and every so often we take them for a hike.
“Elinor was amazing! She just love cats! The way she connected with our boys was just impressive! They loved her since the first day!! For us it was a relief, knowing that they liked her! Every time she played with them, gave a lot of pets!! That makes a difference. And she took care of my plants and tomatoes :) I wont hesitate to book with her again! Cause I know that our boys will be in good hands!!!! I only have good things to say about her!!! I appreciate all she has done while we were gone on vacations!”
“Thanks Leah for taking such good care of Charlie! He seems to have enjoyed your company. I appreciate your offer of an extra visit after he threw up and also that you cleaned it up. Lol! I’ll be I touch again.”
“Lauren is the most caring and reliable pet sitter to have for your animals!!!! She contacted me back in a timely manner, she was on time which her check in’s and sent daily pictures of our pets. Thank you so much Lauren for giving my husband and I peace of mind while we were away and giving our cats the care and attention they needed!! Mike & Krissy”
“Jessica has been fantastic during drop-in visits for our dog Buddy! It was clear the second she walked in our home that she knows and loves dogs. Buddy was instantly comfortable with her thanks to her warm and welcoming demeanor. Knowing Buddy has someone that we can trust to drop-in while we are at work is very comforting. Highly recommend Jessica!!”
About: I have watched my cousin's shi tzu many times for extended periods of time. It has went well every time. Also I have over 15 years of having a pet in my home. Walking dogs and taking care of them is something that I have a lot of experience in. I have a very flexible schedule as an independent contractor so i can be available at any time. Whenever I watch my cousin's dog, it becomes a full time endeavor. I take pride in taking care of the things in my environment whether it is lawn care, businesses, car, or my hobbies. I walk them regularly. I make sure the pets are fed on schedule. I pay attention to the pet's communication signals, and I am a caring person towards them.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wickliffe
Jaina was absolutely amazing with our high energy boys. She was willing to work with me when I accidentally sent our wrong door code and kept us updated with photos the entire 2 weekends that she watched them. We came back to a clean, in order home. I would 100% rebook again !
Jamie took the BEST care of our two cats while we were gone. We had just moved and needed to leave our cats for 5 days. She was able to coax our “scaredy cat” out of his hiding place, and kept us updated with lots of sweet photos. I definitely will use her again and highly recommend her services!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wickliffe is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,180 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wickliffe. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , 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 Wickliffe. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
