About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life. I treat them like my babies, so yours will be considered family as well. I have watched cats and dogs throughout the years for family, friends, and neighbors. I treat your fur babies as if they were mine. I currently work from home, so I have a pretty flexible schedule that allows for me to take care of the animals when needed. I love spending time with animals, so I'm happy to share my time with them. I would treat your pet as if it were my own. I would follow all guidelines you would leave for me. I would be sure to play with them and give them lots of attention.
“Rhianna is consistent, reliable, good-natured and attentive. Her love for animals shows! She sent pictures of our dogs with every report card, and not just snapshots, but cute, funny, thoughtful and artistic pictures. We were confident that our dogs were getting top-notch care and attention while we were gone. She is our #1 choice and we would book her again for every trip without hesitation!”

About: My name is Ronda. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for years. I have also been a foster for a rescue group for years. Your animal will be taken care of and loved as if they were my own. I do not currently have any pets. I recently lost my 2 senior dogs. I have a home with a fenced in back yard. I also have a doggie door if that is something your dog is used to (if not, it will be closed up). They will have free roam of the house when I am gone or can be crated if that is what they prefer. I will take them for daily walks or hang with then on the couch. Meds, special diets, or any special needs will be addressed. I'll text updates and sends pictures. Whatever you and your furbaby want, I will accommodate. I accept dogs of any size. I currently have a hybrid work schedule, so I am home a majority of the day and I am able to offer frequent potty breaks I have a fenced in back yard with no doggy neighbors. I am also home the majority of the day and am only gone for short periods of time.
About: I spent three years in college volunteering and taking care of service dogs in training, have volunteered at animal shelters, and have had two different dogs of my own throughout my life! I work a 9-5 Monday-Thursday and work 9-2 on Fridays. I'd love to help you out any time outside of those timeframes. Weekends and holidays are especially perfect! I'm super respectful of requests and rules, and understand that each pet has different needs. I cannot have pets in my apartment, but would love to help your pup outdoors or in your house however you'd like!
About: I've taken care of dogs of all ages, and sizes sense I was 10 years old. Friends, and family have relied on me to be attentive to specific diets, medications and needs for every dog I have taken care of. I also volunteer at a local animal shelter every single week and love every minute of it! I currently work full-time, but I work within a 3 minute commute to work so I am able to take care of any fur baby throughout the day! I am very respectful based on the needs of each individual dog. I will always take them for their recommended walks, feed them at the appropriate times, and provide any medications if need be.

My schedule may vary slightly from week to week as I’m also a college student, but I keep my availability up to date and communicate promptly. During every visit, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise, attention, potty breaks, and lots of love. I pride myself on being reliable, arriving on time, and sending detailed updates and photos after each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I carefully follow all care instructions, keep dogs securely leashed on walks, and pay close attention to their comfort and behavior. I respect every client’s home, keep it clean, lock doors when leaving, and treat both your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would expect for my own dog, Abby.

“Paige exceeded all of our expectations. My three large dogs were well taken care of, and when we arrived home, we figured we would have a mess to deal with because of the weather and muddy back yard, but Paige kept up with everything, again, above and beyond our expectations. Paige sent us updates daily, with pics of the dogs. These updates put us at ease that all was well back at home. Aside from all of this, we can tell that Paige is a genuinely good person that has a love for animals, treating ours as she would her own. If you are looking for a sitter, stop here and check her calendar, you wont regret it.”
“Caitlin was everything we could hope for in a pet sitter. Our dogs warmed up to her right away. She was so conscientious and caring. We had no worries with our diabetic dog and her ability to administer his Vetsulin. We will definitely request her in the future.”

About: Like many sitters, Ive been a multi-pet owner my whole life. If there is not at least one animal in the same room as I am it feels empty! After selling the gym I operated for 15 years, I have found myself in Ohio with plenty of time and energy to give to your four legged friends! I also spent 9 months living on a working farm during graduate school and have hands on experience with a variety of domesticated farm animals. I currently have a flexible schedule. My previous career as a personal trainer has gotten me used to high energy days with back to back appointments, so I can handle walks of different distances or speeds. Taking care of animals comes naturally to me, and along with the owners instruction and insights into their pets, I strive to maintain a safe and positive environment for all.
“Haley has been fantastic dropping in on my dog Cheddar for the last 2 consecutive months! She has been dropping in on cheddar for the last two years on and off when I need someone and will always rebook her! she shows up on time, is respectable of my home, and sends lots of pics and videos during the visit.”
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for my two Australian Shepherds every day. I understand the importance of exercise, attention, and routine, especially for active breeds. I treat every dog like my own with patience, love, and reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I am a substitute teacher and cheerleading coach so my schedule is always flexible and helps me work around other people‘s schedules as well! I will make sure to use clear communication with the owner when taking care of one’s pet in their home to make sure all procedures are being followed to ensure the safety of myself and their pet.

Ashlee is great! Gracie looks forward to Ashlee's visits and loves to see her. It was easy to get set up with Ashlee, and she has been very reliable in making sure that Gracie gets outside to play.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Boardman stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Boardman choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Boardman with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
