“Tina & Rick are my go too sitters; they are kind, compassionate and understanding towards my Husky (and her behavioral changes as a senior dog). They are always flexible, which is good because I’m a huge procrastinator!!! But definitely book well in advance don’t be like me. 😂”
“Simply amazing, she treated my dog like her very own, great backyard with fence for dogs to run and play. She took my dog for many walks, we received frequent picture updates. Overall, highly recommend Karin and her husband”

“They took care of our baby Rosita like she was part of their family. Kept me informed with pictures and videos. I was a little nervous at first because it was my first time leaving her somewhere. But they made me feel comfortable. I’m so thankful to you guys for taking care of Rosita. I would recommend you 100%. I would gladly be a regular costumer. Thank you ?”

About: For the past four years, I’ve been actively involved in running a busy in-home dog boarding and daycare business through Rover. While my former partner handled most of the client communication and scheduling, I was heavily involved in the day-to-day care of the dogs and was responsible for making sure they were safe, happy, exercised, and well cared for throughout their stay. I regularly cared for multiple dogs at a time, including dogs staying with us 24/7. My responsibilities included taking dogs outside every 1–2 hours, supervising playtime and group interactions, providing exercise and enrichment, cleaning up after them, and paying close attention to their individual personalities and behaviors. Over the years, I’ve learned a great deal about dog behavior and how to safely manage different temperaments, energy levels, and personalities. I became comfortable introducing dogs to one another, supervising group play, recognizing when dogs needed space or a break, and making sure every dog was comfortable in the environment. I also handled a large part of the cleaning and daily upkeep, including deep-cleaning the dog areas, washing food and water bowls, maintaining a clean environment, and making sure the dogs always had a safe and comfortable place to stay. One of my favorite parts of caring for dogs is making sure they have a great experience while their owners are away. I love playing with them, giving them attention, taking them outside, and getting great pictures and updates for their owners so they can see how much fun their dog is having. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and after four years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in a busy boarding and daycare environment, I’m excited to continue doing what I love and provide that same level of care to Rover clients and their pets. This is what I do and have done for a living for the last 4 years, prior to this I was working with my former partner under her rover account, plenty of play time for your pups! I can handle any dog of any temperament or behavioral issues that may require additional safety precautions. I go outside with the dogs in my care ever 1-2 hours, whether it be a group play session or 1 on 1 play. I tailor to every dogs needs.
“Keeley was accommodating and communicated well. Our dog, Mia, had an amazing time during her stay. Mia got to play with her kids and dogs. We are so glad to have found a caring and loving sitter for Mia. Thank you Keeley!”
“Jennifer was very conscientious and caring. She kept us posted on how things were going as this was our first time leaving our rescued dog with anybody. We highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“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”
“Shannon and Robert were absolutely wonderful! Their family is so kind, and their children were great with Henry. He settled in right away and honestly didn’t seem like he wanted to leave when we picked him up. They kept him active all day, so he came home happy and completely worn out (in the best way!). We’d absolutely trust them with Henry again and look forward to booking with them in the future.”
“Archna was great. Very flexible and accommodating in regards to pickup and drop off times for our dog. She also was great at trying to keep with patterns and routines we may have established with our dog. She really cared about him. And the daily updates and pictures were awesome.”
“Bowie always loves his time with Tolley & Tom. He seems to make himself right at home with them. So responsive and sends updates frequently. Highly recommend! Thanks for caring for our little guy ❤️”
“Kyra is perfect for our dog Dakota “Koti”. Koti has stayed with her twice and loves her. I think the feeling is mutual! We never want to use anybody else.”
“Alex and his girlfriend were SO sweet to our 10 month old golden retriever. Not everyone could handle that level of energy but he made sure to provide our pup with tons of outside time and sent us daily updates throughout our trip. Amazing experience, will definitely be booking with him in the future!”

Chelsea and her husband are always great with a watching Hank during the day for me. This time they watched him for 2 nights while I was out of town. I got photos everyday and he always has phone hanging out in the pool and playing with the other dogs. Glad I have someone I can trust to watch my little buddy for me.
Tina & Rick are my go too sitters; they are kind, compassionate and understanding towards my Husky (and her behavioral changes as a senior dog). They are always flexible, which is good because I’m a huge procrastinator!!! But definitely book well in advance don’t be like me. 😂
I never have to worry about my dog when she is with Kimberly. She’s great about sending pictures and videos so that I can see how my dog is doing. My dog has never looked stressed in any of the pictures at Kimberly’s, and that is unusual for my tender hearted dog! I will continue using Kimberly as long as she’s available!!
I had Roza watch my dog while I was out of town for a 5 days. She was consistently sending photos reassuring that my pup was doing good. Her family is the sweetest and took care of my 4 legged child so well. I will definitely hire her again, will recommend her to others and cannot thank her enough.
Cara was super friendly and sweet and made sure she understood my little pack’s needs before it was time for them to be boarded (2 dogs and a cat). She sent me photos and updates which were highly appreciated and was very flexible and welcoming. Definitely recommend her if you need to board your animals, she understands how important our furbabies are to us! I’m definitely going to keep Cara in mind for any future boarding needs I may have. Thank you for being awesome!!
Shirley is truly amazing. She’s attentive, patient, and treats my dogs as if they were her own. I never have to worry because I know they’re safe, happy, and surrounded by kindness. The care, consistency, and heart she puts into what she does is truly incredible. From the moment I met her, it was clear she has a genuine love for animals, and my little crew feels it every single time they’re with her. Bianca and Dolce absolutely adore Shirley. Knowing my dogs are so deeply loved and cared for when I’m away brings me complete peace of mind.

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 Brooklyn Heights 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 Brooklyn Heights home-away-from-home, 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 Brooklyn Heights.
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 Brooklyn Heights 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 , 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 .
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.
