“Jenni was great to work with for my pup’s care. She was responsive and clearly likes pups. My dog can have separation anxiety and not be willing to eat but he did well and seemed content. I would use her again and recommend to a friend”
“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!”
“Our vacation was much more enjoyable knowing our dog was loved and cared for. I highly recommend Megan and her family for your dog sitting needs and will be using their services again in the future!”
“We can't say enough about Margaret and the care she took of our beloved dog, Maisy. She sent many updates wih great pictures and we felt so comfortable that we had left our dog , for only the second time, in he care. Her dog and cat were also so welcoming to our dog which made her first experience with other pets a great one. We highly recommend Margaret to take wonderful care of your dog too.”
“Michelle was absolutely amazing with our husky aurora! She has mild anxiety and we were a bit worried to leave her but Michelle made us feel so comfortable and Aurora and Michelle’s Pup Rocky seemed to have a blast! We loved all the pictures and updates we got! Will definitely be using her on our next time out of town!”
“Kelly is the absolute best! Anytime we have to go out of town, we know that our dog is in the best of hands. Constant updates and communication the entire time. We are worried that our dog is always sad to come home because she gets so spoiled staying with Kelly.”
“Christiana was great! Our two dogs seemed to enjoy their time there & especially loved being able to run around in the backyard! She sent us pictures and updates throughout and was very responsive when I checked in with her!”
About: I have a 5-year-old chocolate Lab boy and a 4-year-old Maine Coon boy. They’re best buddies, super friendly, and always happy to make new friends! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was very young age. I work from home Monday through Friday with a flexible schedule. My cat and dog are best friends, they’re very good boys and always welcoming others. Fenced yard with 0.6 acer backyard, so the dog friend can run and play outside.

Owner is responsible for all veterinary costs and medical decisions. Aggression, biting, or repeated dangerous behavior may result in early pickup.
“If you’re looking for someone to treat your dog as nice (if not better) than you do, well Debbra is that person! She treated Biscuit like he was her own dog. She kept him on his same schedule and provided him with the long daily walks he is used to. I could tell from the pictures she provided that Biscuit was comfortable and relaxed. He was so happy when I picked him up. Debbra is truly a dog lover and I will be using her services again!”
“Wendalyn and Keith took such good care of our girl Gracie! They sent multiple pictures and updates a day during our time away! I would definitely use their sitting services again and highly recommend them to others!”
“Dana was fantastic with our dog Dakota.Dakota is a little special dog who needs a lot of love and a lot of attention. She was abused before we got her and it just takes her a while in order to trust people by the third day. Dakota was very very comfortable when we went to pick her up. She was in attack mode and protecting Dana, which I take as a good sign because she only protects the people she loves. Dana was very accommodating to us. We had a problem with pick up, but she made it work I know when I go on our next trip we will be using Dana again because our dog Dakota loves her”
“Sabrina is absolutely fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog, followed all feeding and care instructions perfectly, and kept me updated the whole time. I received daily photos updates, and it was so comforting to see my pup playing and settling in perfectly. Highly recommend to anyone in the Avon Lake area”
“Tolley and Tom took great care of Repeat. The family treated Repeat as if he was one of their own dogs. They sent lots of pictures and updates to help ease our mind. We would definitely use them again.”
“This is a kind personable family that obviously enjoys animals. Jane their little Yorkie was very kind and accepting to Elizabeth. We feel comfortable letting her visit them again and we appreciated the frequent updates and photos of Elizabeth's stay.”
“Caroline and Samuel were fantastic with my dog Netty. They were flexible with pick up times and they genuinely care about your dogs well being and happiness. The updates they sent made me smile and reassured Netty was in good hands. Their dog Winnie is adorable and eager to play with your dog any chance she gets! 100% recommend booking with them! Will book again soon. Thank you for a great experience”
“Robert watched Mia at his house overnight for a few nights. He has a great fenced in backyard, perfect for our pup to run and stretch her legs. Mia came back happy and tired out from her running vacation ? We would definitely use Robert again!”

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! 🐾🫶🏼
I don’t get out of town much and I am lucky enough to be able to bring my two fur babies to work with me everyday. I feel so fortunate to have found Megan and her family. Megan works from home which meant less alone time for my dogs-which made their 9 days with her much easier. Megan sent me daily updates and pictures that absolutely put this nervous momma at ease. From our first meet and greet, I knew that Megan’s easy going attitude and ability to understand my dogs’ quirks made her the perfect fit. Both dogs loved her immediately and got the added bonus of the rest of her family that showed them both so much affection and extra playtime. Megan is absolutely my go to sitter from now on and if I could give her a ten star review I would!
First time with Ashley and she was great! Our dog Mia was a rescue, and she brought some quirky things with her when we got her. Ashley was able to bond with Mia and made her feel comfortable and secure. We will definitely use her again and recommend her highly especially if you have a pet with some anxiety issues.
Cindy and Justin cared our dog in their home while we were away for the weekend. They were attentive to details and accommodating with our concerns. Our dog liked them right away. Cindy sent us pictures and updates which gave us peace of mind! We will use them again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Avon Lake on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 616 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Avon Lake. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Avon Lake sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Avon Lake landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Avon Lake 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 Lake.
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.
You and your Avon Lake 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.
