“Our flight got cancelled and Rachel had to keep our pup unexpectedly for another day! Rachel was great about the inconvenience which we greatly appreciated. Our dog Lily is old and not easy and Rachel ALWAYS makes us feel like our old girl is easy and a delight 😊 Such a relief while we are away.”

“Zuri is an absolutely amazing puppy caregiver! She took care of our puppy for several days and treated her like one of her own. We got constant updates and pictures of our sweet girl. Any fears or unease was quickly put to rest after meeting Zuri. Summer enjoyed her stay and even missed her “second “ family when we picked her back up. I would recommend Zuri for boarding hands down! Her entire family was amazing. She is so kind, caring, professional and compassionate. We were blessed to find her. She is extremely knowledgeable about pets and is always willing to go the extra mile for you. We will definitely be back for as long as she will have us!”

“Definitely recommend Madison to watch my pup. She has few other dogs and I was not sure how she would react with other dogs as she likes to play but can sometimes be a handful. Madison was nice enough to meet Nala before I even booked and let her meet her dogs so we could see how they would react. She put my mind at ease by sending videos and pictures during Nalas stay showing me how Nala was getting along with her pups and just having a grand ole time. She has plenty of field for dogs to run around and enjoy/ tire themselves out. Will definitely be trusting her with my pup again and can not recommend her enough.”

“Janelle was amazing with our guy Oscar. We had to find someone last minute, as the person we had needed to back out. She took very good care of him and gave us daily updates as well as pics. She is a lover of all animals and it shows by the way she interacts with them. I will definitely be asking her to watch Oscar the next time we need someone and will recommend her to all of our family and friends!!”

About: I have 30 years of hands-on experience with dogs, including breeding and raising puppies, professional training, and working with rescue dogs needing behavioral rehabilitation. I have experience with many breeds, temperaments and behavioral challenges, along with numerous references from clients and families who have trusted me with the care and training of their dogs. Drop-in visits are available for potty breaks, feeding, medication, playtime and check-ins for dogs of all ages. Because I’m also a professional dog trainer, I can incorporate basic obedience training, manners and mental stimulation into our time together. Your dog gets the care they need, plus productive one-on-one attention while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate both regular and occasional drop-in visits throughout the week. Whether you need ongoing visits, occasional help, or care while you’re away, I’m happy to work with your dog’s normal routine and schedule. I care for each dog according to their established routine, household rules and individual needs. As an experienced trainer, I’m comfortable reading canine body language and handling different temperaments. I respect your home, your dog’s boundaries and the training or structure you already have in place while providing safe, attentive care.

Jayden sent plenty of pictures throughout her stay, and seeing how happy, relaxed, and well cared for she was gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she was treated like part of the family, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

About: We’re big dog people and absolutely believe that pets are family. We have our own dog and have loved caring for the dogs of family and friends over the years. We also use Rover ourselves, so we know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust to take care of your pet. We want to provide that same feeling of love, care, and peace of mind for other pet parents. Our goal is for your pup to feel happy, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away! 🐾❤️ My husband and I both work full-time, but I’m a teacher, so I have more flexibility during the summer and school breaks. We’re also available most evenings and weekends throughout the year. We love spending time with dogs and are happy to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. We’ll work with your schedule to make sure your dog gets the care and attention they need while you’re away. We want every pup in our care to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. We have a fenced-in yard and our own friendly dog who loves having company! We’re happy to keep your pup’s normal routine, whether that means specific feeding times, walks, crate time, or anything else that helps them feel comfortable. We’re also happy to meet beforehand so you and your pup can get to know us and make sure it feels like a good fit. As Rover users ourselves, we know how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pet. Pets are family to us, and we want you to feel that same love and peace of mind while your pup is with us. We’ll keep you updated with lots of pictures along the way, too! 🐶❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Advance home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Advance.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Advance sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
