“LeAndra was very communicative throughout the trip and took the time to share pictures and updates that put our mind at ease. She walked Hermione and made sure she felt loved even through the 4th of July fireworks. Would absolutely book again.”

About: My name is Ivette and I currently study at Case. My husband is a USPS mail carrier and I work from home. Currently, I have one dog and two rescue cats🐾. During the pandemic, I spent a significant amount of time with my pets indoors where I had the opportunity to take care of two litters that my dogs had. I learned many skills during that time. With age, my dog became a senior dog and had to take oral medication so I am used to giving oral/topical medication to pets. I have been living in the Cleveland area since 2019 but I am originally from Texas. My current home has a fenced back yard and a good route for walks. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out.
“Nova had a great time staying with Austin. Austin provided updates twice a day and at least one photo a day. He responded quickly and had great communication before and during Nova's stay. We would absolutely book with Austin again in the future.”

“So happy I found Susan! Gus has so much fun staying with her and playing with Frank and the other pups that come in and out. I love the daily pictures and videos. This last trip, I had a flight cancellation and had to extend his stay, and Susan was so reassuring and helpful as I dealt with the stress of finding new flights and hotels.”

About: ✨ Personalized Cat Care ✨ Hello, friends and fur babies! I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have been a trusted Rover sitter since May 2023. While I grew up around dogs and volunteered at an animal shelter in high school, my professional pet-sitting journey has naturally led me to specialize in personalized, high-quality cat care. I’ve had the opportunity to care for cats of all personalities and needs, including multi-cat households, senior cats, and shy or anxious kitties. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed care routines, and providing patient, attentive support tailored to each cat’s temperament. My approach focuses on consistency, comfort, and enrichment. Each visit is intentional and unhurried, with thoughtful attention given to interactive play, mental stimulation, cozy companionship, and plenty of affection—always respecting your cat’s individual boundaries and preferences. If you’re traveling this holiday season and want peace of mind knowing your cat is receiving attentive, personalized care in the comfort of their own home, I’d love to connect. 🐾🤍 I am currently working full-time as a nanny and part-time as a bartender at a local restaurant. My schedule can be busy, but I am very flexible and will always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Please feel free to message me to discuss your schedule—I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet gets the care they deserve! I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I primarily offer drop-in visits and am highly detail-oriented and attentive when it comes to following instructions. My goal is always to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident in the care I provide. For first-time bookings, a scheduled “meet and greet” is required. This helps prevent any miscommunication about expectations, ensures your pet is comfortable with me, and confirms that I’m a good fit for your family.
“Anghella was amazing! She was available on short notice, she was close, and Obi was awesome too! There was a miscommunication on my end and she was able to accomodate my needs. After meeting Anghella I did not feel anxious or worried about leaving our pup with her. Thank you Anghella!!! We will be using her in the future.”

“Great communication, sent me pictures and updates. My dog is still quite high energy and I've had less than stellar experiences at facilities. When I brought her home I could tell she'd been taken care of and was her regular self.”

“Colleen was absolutely wonderful! She has a calm demeanor and was so loving to my Poppy while away for a week. I received daily updates and loved seeing through photos the bond Poppy and her lab, Peaches, developed. In fact, tonight a yellow lab appeared on the TV in an ad and Poppy went wild barking. I think she already misses her new friend and it has at even been 24 hours. I will most certainly use Colleen for future boarding.”

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.
“Beth gave Baker so much love and attention. He has a little separation anxiety but seemed to get over it very quickly with the attention he was getting. We felt very comfortable and will definitely bring Baker back again to this loving home. Thank you Beth!”

“Susan took wonderful care of Ekho my senior Boston Terrier. Ekho has some special needs, including daily meds and was returned to us in good spirits and in good health. Susan was pleasant, super easy to work with and sent us several updates and photos through the week. We will contact her again if needed and I recommend her without hesitation to others.”
“We’re really happy with Debra and how she handled everything for our dog while we were out of town. We arranged for a meetup before the stay to ensure this would be a good match. When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”

“Samantha was a kind and caring sitter! She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on how my puppy was doing. She also has 2 small and very well behaved pups and this was great for socialization. Very happy to leave my puppy with Samantha.”

“Andrea is amazing! She understands dogs and makes sure they are comfortable, safe, and happy. Plus she groomed our Samoyed before we picked him up -which is no easy task! Definitely booking with her again.”

“Sandra took excellent care of my dog, Cosmo. Just before his recent stay with her he started needing medication twice a day and she was up to the challenge of trying to get him to eat those funny "meatballs." She's conscientious and it's obvious that she really loves the dogs in her care. She even sent a follow up text the day after his stay to see how he was doing.”
“Alicia was quick to respond and was super nice. My cat, Suki, seemed comfortable in her care for the week. Alicia provided photos of Suki and took great care of her. 100% would want to rebook with Alicia in the future.”

Willoughby pet parents share their Rover experiences
Maria was the absolute best! We’ve never boarded our dogs before so we were nervous but she was so amazing with them. She sent us updates and photos throughout their stay to show us how much fun they had. She was so great with keeping their schedule to help with normalcy. Her dog is also so cute! If we ever need anyone again we will definitely be going back to her!
Monique is the best! She takes such great care of our dogs. She administered medication and I felt so comfortable leaving them with her. This is the second time she has kept them for us and I am immediately booking her again. She was so flexible with pickups and drop offs and it’s easy to tell that she is so good with them! Highly recommended!
