Leonard has separation anxiety, and I am just starting to leave him with sitters. Angela is great. On pickup, I think Leonard was hoping that I was there to stay and join the fun!”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing with Osa, I went from feeling scared of leaving Osa to feeling comfortable Osa was taken care of. Her response time was almost instant for the entirety of Osa's stay, and she was so flexible when I needed to add pick up and drop off for unexpected events! Taylor, thank you so much for making this one less thing for me to worry about during my travel!”

“Arlette was absolutely incredible while watching Potato for the week. She was so attentive and caring, and it gave us complete peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. She sent tons of photos and updates throughout the entire stay, which meant so much to us—especially since we were away getting engaged! Potato came back completely himself—clean, calm, and clearly well-loved the entire time. You can tell Arlette genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. We are beyond grateful and would trust her again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“I have 2 small, senior dogs with special diets and medicines three times daily. One can have a "grumpy old man" attitude. They had not stayed with anyone but family & friends in the 2 & 4 years I've had them. Rumi and her husband were absolutely wonderful with them (and with me ☺️)! They were very flexible with me when my drop off schedule kept changing. She sent me pictures, videos, updates. The dogs always looked content. She advised me at pick up of a lump they felt on one dog. I highly recommend and will be using again.”
“Bernie had a great time with Liliana and her dogs during his week visit. The photos and videos we received showed Bernie playing and sleeping with his new “pack”. I was very happy he had this time to be social with other dogs.”

I’m beyond grateful we found them and will absolutely be booking with them again. Highly, highly recommend!”

“I was a nervous wreck leaving our dog for 1st time with a total stranger. But Caitlyn was absolutely wonderful! She took such good care of our precious baby, sent us regular photos with updates, and was so patient with my frequent texts. It was obvious when I dropped my dog off at Caitlyn's that their family loves dogs and animals in general because their yard is set up like a paradise to feed the birds, butterflies, and even saw 11 deer feeding in their backyard! Beautiful place and our baby was safe in dog fence and well cared for.”

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.
97% of sitters in Cardington 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 Cardington 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 Cardington.
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 Cardington 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.
