“First time using Rover & leaving our precious pup with someone else. We are so glad we found Carey! She helped us feel at ease and sent lots of updates & pictures! Her dog is very sweet & the 2 of them got along without issues. He was well cared for & loved. He also got a lot of exercise! So much better than being locked up in a kennel! We hope she can watch him many more times in the future!”
“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!”
“Samantha was wonderful! So friendly, communicative, and clearly took great care of our dog, Finn. He’s 11 and can be a little finicky when staying somewhere new, and she even made him fresh eggs (his favorite breakfast topper) to encourage him to eat. She sent lots of photos, kept us updated, and made sure he got plenty of exercise and attention. We’re so happy to have found a great local sitter and hope she can watch him again!”
“Eric and Polly were great. They were able to watch my dog after my other sitter canceled last minute. They sent multiple photos multiple times a day. It was great receiving the updates and knowing that my dog was in great hands. I highly recommend them!”
“David was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Louis! From start to finish, he was a great communicator — always quick to respond and kept me updated throughout the stay. He sent tons of adorable pictures, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Louis looked so happy and well taken care of in every photo. It’s clear that David truly loves dogs and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re comfortable and cared for. I couldn’t recommend him more highly — I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Kristine took excellent care of our old gal. She gave her the attention she needed, made sure she had her meds and carefully introduced her to the other dog. Her daughter was also very sweet to Tinkerbell. We will definitely use Kristine again!”
“I can’t recommend Sarah and Brendan enough!! They were so sweet, responsive and took great care of our girl! We loved all the updates and pictures they provided. We will definitely be using them again ??”
“Miranda and her husband took such wonderful care of our little boy! It was great to be able to enjoy our weekend and know he was safe and sound. Great communication and flexibility!”
“This was our first time using the service. Summer kept us up to date and send pics of our girl. She communicated with us in a timely manner and did an awesome job keeping us informed!”
“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”
“DeeDee had the best time with Derek. He sent lots of pictures and videos and she got to go on adventures of her own with Derek and his pups. Highly recommend using Derek for overnight boarding and daycare.”
“As a very anxious dog mama, I was so skeptical to use a sitter. Matt went above and beyond, sending updates, pictures, responding quickly, and making sure my pup was comfortable and well taken care of! My pup can’t wait for another stay with get favorite sitter ◡̈”
“Julie and her family are AMAZING! Take great care of our Sadie , send lots of cool pics, and constant updates during her stay. Highly recommend Julie’s services to everyone ! Thanks Julie ! Tim, Pam, and Sadie Anderson”
“I originally chose Michael because he was so responsive to my inquiries, and I was glad I did. He was very accommodating to my ever changing drop off and pick up times for boarding. Also, my dog is pretty wild and I told him I’d understand if she was too much of a handful, but he was not put off at all, and they both seemed to really enjoy each other. He took her for plenty of walks to make sure she got her energy out. Will gladly board with him again in the future!”
“Jennifer, Wayne and family are great. They are super communicative, flexible, and took really good care of our pup. I can tell they enjoy taking care of animals and treating them like family. Lady came home happy, healthy, and exhausted :)”
“We were very pleased with the care that our dog received. We appreciated receiving updates during his stay. When we picked him up, he was relaxed and content. We will use Cris again when we need boarding for our dog.”
About: I got my first puppy for my 10th birthday. She was entirely my responsibility. I fed, bathed, and trained her. She was a huge white shepherd and the sweetest thing on paws I still miss her. Since then, I’ve had many, many dogs and cats through the years. I’ve been through dog training school several times. I currently have three full-sized Goldendoodles who are reasonably well trained, although they are still way too friendly. I’m retired and available about any day except Sunday afternoons: noon church service. I get my groceries delivered, so I’m here most of the time. I try to walk one of mine every day, weather permitting. I would walk your pup before I walk mine. I also have a fenced-in back yard where the dog run and play. My house is dog friendly, and I’m not overly concerned with dirt. I also have the world’s best vacuum cleaner to deal with it and all the hair. lol I have a large fenced-in back yard with river rock instead of grass, so mud is not a problem. My three friendly Doodles love racing around, especially in the snow, and they would love to add your dog to the fun. At the end of the day, we all go upstairs and sleep in my room with a baby-gate blocking the door, so there is no house roaming overnight. I also have room for crates if that’s what your dog needs to feel comfortable. I have one cat who is comfortable around dogs and knows where to hide if necessary. Please have your dog be familiar with cats or at least won’t attack her if she tries to make friends. I can accommodate special diets and know how to use a pill gun for medications.
About: Dogs have always been a significant part of my life. I've gone through agility class, traveled around with them, and performed medical care as needed I retired about a year ago from the healthcare field. I am frequently available to care for dogs and cats in many situations and time frames I live in a complex with a doggie walk and a fenced in area. I can care for your pet at your home as well, and can walk and exercise them.
“Jenn was fantastic. Nicest woman you’ll ever meet. Her love of animals shows from the first time you speak. She stays in constant communication, sending pictures with updates. If you want someone to love on your pets as much as you do pick Jennifer.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Avon Center is $45
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Avon Center
My experience with Patrice showed me that she genuinely loves dogs. She doesn’t just care for them; she truly cares about their well-being and understands their needs, especially when they’re hurting or vulnerable. I had an emergency and I reached out to several Rover sitters, but many declined because of the situation of my dog needing extra care and my request was a last minute. I reached out to several Rover sitters, but many declined because of my dog situation and last minute. I completely understood Patrice was very concerned, too. I really appreciated that she took the time to ask questions, make a call, and understand what had happened before deciding whether she could help. That was a sign to me that Patrice genuinely loves dogs and truly cares about their well-being. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting Patrice to accept my request because Mango needed extra care at that time. She took the necessary precautions and was willing to help me figure out what Mango needed while we were away. She gave me the comfort and peace of mind I desperately needed during such a difficult situation. Patrice would send me pictures of Mango, and it really gave me peace of mind to see her smiling and happy with Patrice and her family. When we picked up Mango from Patrice, I was so happy to see that Mango was back to her normal self, moving around happily and excited to see us again. I can’t tell you how relieved and grateful I felt! Thank you Patrice for being so kind, patient, and understanding, not only toward me but also toward Mango. You stepped in when I really needed help, and you made it possible for us to continue with our trip without the same fear and worry I had before. Thank you again, Patrice. I’m so grateful that we found you when we needed help the most.
Kelly was incredible with our Kona! She is truly a trusted sitter and I am so glad to have found her. She followed all of our directions, made sure he was well taken care of, and most of all, made him feel at home. She even provided plenty of cute pictures of Kona and updated us along the way. She is terrific!!!
Samantha and her family were absolutely amazing with our dog, Winston! They followed all of the directions we provided for his care, but most importantly, they gave him so much love and attention. They took him on frequent walks despite the rain, gave him plenty of pets, and showered him with affection. We truly couldn’t imagine relying on anyone else through Rover going forward. Samantha and her wonderful family were the best, and we’re so grateful they took such great care of Winston!
We absolutely loved Sabrina! She kept us updated with pictures the whole time our pup was there. Willow had a blast and was taken care of by her family as if she was their own. I would 100% recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for amazing care for their fur babies! 🐾🫶🏼

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.
96% of sitters in Avon 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 Avon 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 Avon 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 Avon Center. On Rover:

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 Avon 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.
