“I boarded my bloodhound for over a week, and Kristi did an amazing job taking care of my dog and providing tons of pictures/videos/updates. Previously, my dog has had difficult experiences being boarded with other sitters. But with Kristi, he was happy and relaxed with no signs of stress.”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Lindsey and her dogd. He csme home less excitesble due to the smount of plsy time he received. He csme back more trainable because of the more cslm demeaner, and he plays better with other dogs now. Lindsey is s great choice for dog-sitter or, dog-boarder.”
“My dogs were more than cared for. They were loved, they were spoiled, and they were happy every minute we were gone. I can’t say enough good things about Rita and Brian. I highly recommend them!”
“Rui was fantastic with Snoopy who can be overly joyous and loving. She sent photos of Snoopy and her dog Misty spending time together which were fantastic to receive during our holiday. It was so reassuring to know Snoopy was in good hands and had a playmate while we were out of town.”
“Lauren is absolutely wonderful! Her kind and caring nature shows through in the way she cares for our pups. Lauren is very detailed oriented, giving a report on how our pups got along with her dog and each other, what they ate, if they rested. We feel very blessed to have Lauren to help us care for our fur family.”
“Angela was great. This was our first time using this app and she was amazing. Very communicative, sent pictures and updates and even gave Frosty a bath. I would recommend and definitely return to Angela again. Frosty loved it!!”
“Jasmine was wonderful with our corgi! She kept us updated, sent photos, and asked questions regarding her care. She even accepted a last minute booking. We would definitely rebook again with Jasmine!”
“Kayla was amazing!! We left our anxious Bernedoodle puppy with her, and he was so at ease in the environment. He was fully loved by her family, and made playmates with her dogs. She was great about sending pics or videos each day, and getting him plenty of time outside on walks or in their yard. I highly recommend her for any of your pet needs. We will be using her many times for boarding this upcoming year. It brings such peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands.”
“Bethany and her family are wonderful! My dog spent a week with them and I could relax on my vacation knowing she was in the best care. Their big fenced in backyard is an added bonus. I would definitely recommend!”
“Hasber was great with communication and provided updates throughout our entire trip. Our kids loved seeing the pictures/videos he sent us. We will definitely be using Hasber again”
“Sally you are the best with care of my pups! They are eager to enter your home, and clearly enjoyed your company and social time! They come back tired, loving your yard and in great health. Thank you so much! JO”
“Arlette was simply amazing with my puppy. Lots and lots of pictures. I could tell my puppy left happy when I picked him up. I could tell he was treated well and he got along well with Arlette’s dog. I boarded him for 1 night this time. Will definitely be boarding him with Arlette again.”
“I appreciate the attention, love and extra care that she puts into learning how to handle Frankie's high energy. She comes home so happy--and better trained than when I left her! Thank you, again.”

“Pam is so amazing with both of our girls! They get TONS of love and attention while they stay with there. Her and her husband are incredibly patient and attentive. I hate leaving the dogs but I am always at ease when I leave them with Pam. Highly recommend her!”
“Maria did great with Bear. We were very uneasy about leaving him for the first time and she was so wonderful about sending us pictures and updates. She was so positive even though I’m sure, as a puppy, it wasn’t easy! We were so glad to have Bear have great care while we were gone.”
“Maia took wonderful care of Lady while we were away. She kept us updated, treated her like family, and we came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: We adopted both dogs from South LA shelter in California. We’ve had Cali for 10 years and Teddy for less than a year. My husband house trained both of them. We have experience taking care of dogs through all stages of life, such as puppy, adult, and senior. I am a stay at home mom and my husband works from home. We have a big backyard that’s fenced, so we are able to accommodate to your dog’s potty schedule. We let our dogs out to potty at least 4 times a day and they eat twice a day. Our dogs sleep in our bedroom and yours would too :)
“I cannot speak highly enough of our experience with Amanda. She watched our 2 dogs this week, 2 separate times that we needed to travel overnight. You can tell she genuinely adores every dog she cares for and she is so great about sending updates and pictures. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for peace of mind when they have to be away from their fur babies.”

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.
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.
95% of sitters in Allen Center can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Allen Center 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 Allen Center.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Allen Center. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
You and your Allen Center 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
