“Well Sadie must have had a good time she was wore out I'm sure with playing with the children I know she loves little children and dogs everything went well is expected”
“Tammy and Carter, her husband, are the best! She took on our 2 corgis and they had a great time! Tammy made sure to address any separation anxiety issues and really went the extra mile to make sure our pups were safe, happy, and well cared for. Thanks guys! Great job! I wholeheartedly recommend her.”
“Kimberly is great! She is very quick at responding and giving updates (including photos). We noticed our dog came back very comfortable and relaxed. We are already booking again! Thank you very much Kimberly!”
“Sarah and Matthew are a DREAM for dog sitters and their beautiful farm is just paradise for any pup. They took such great care of our dog for eight days. They’d send pictures daily and communicated with us each day. Absolutely five star rating!”
About: I have provided care and enrichment for a variety of animals throughout my life, from hamsters all the way up to farm animals. I have had multiple jobs in animal care, acquired a bachelor’s degree that required multiple animal-related care internships, and have personally cared for many family pets in their own homes. I'M OFFICIALLY FULL-TIME IN PERSONAL PET CARE ☺️ If a pet parent is flexible with their schedule I can fit it around my other clients! Especially for walks or drop ins. I'm going full-time on pet care for a little while I am content to go for long walks or trips to a dog park, or just lounge around the house with the occasional trip outside all depending on what your pet prefers. I will follow all instructions on their meals and any meds they may have.
“Loree and Jeff are two angels sent from the doggy gods! They were absolutely amazing with my shepherd Zeus. They sent lots of pictures and communicated almost instantly with all of my questions. They really treated Zeus like their own dog and spoiled him so much! I will absolutely be asking them to dog sit again, I have zero complaints!”
“Hatsuki took great care of our dog Chloe! She sent frequent updates and pictures about how Chloe was doing. At the end of the visit Hatsuki provided me with an extensive summary about Chloe's stay. I felt completely comfortable leaving Chloe with her and highly recommend her.”
“Was a last minute weekend stay for my dog and quickly felt comfortable with him staying there. She shared photos of dogs playing together and was quite responsive if ever messaged.”
“We really appreciated Joe watching our two dogs! He was incredibly kind and provided updates so we knew they were doing well. He went above and beyond accommodating a later pickup when our flight was delayed. Thank you, Joe!”
“Jenna was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover.com and we couldn’t be happier. Our puppy just turned 1 and Jenna was so wonderful with him. I had concerns about Max being not so well behaved because he still has a lot of puppy energy and Jenna assured me that she could handle whatever came to pass. She is very confident and knows four legged friends very well! Her space was like a vacation for Max. She has a very nice yard with water play and lots of toys. Her dogs are very well trained and taught my puppy a thing or two. I was very grateful for Jenna AND her puppies. She also gave Max a blowout with a special hair dryer and made his coat look AMAZING!”
“Morgan did a fantastic job watching our little Theo. She was extremely responsive and communicative - providing numerous updates and photos throughout his stay. Would highly recommend Morgan for any pet sitting needs!”
“Chris and his family were awesome! Chris communicated very well during the booking process and gave updates during Max’s stay. Max had a great time especially with the kids and came home tired from all the fun. Thanks Chris!”
“Bethany was wonderful! I knew Archie was in good hands and that he was being well taken care of. All the pictures she sent throughout the week made it clear he was having a great time!”
“Brandy and Brandon were amazing sitters for my boy! They are very friendly with a clean and welcoming home! I really appreciated the level of communication, frequently sending updates and photos! Dunkin had a blast and will absolutely be back!”
“Karen and her husband Paul went above and beyond taking care of Tia. She can be a handful for a less than 10 lb dog and they handled everything well. Thanks so much for putting us at ease on our vacation.”
“Arlissa took great care of my two pups! She sent pictures each day and kept me updated on when they ate and pottied. My dogs loved all the attention she gave them! Would definitely take my dogs back to her in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Centerville
This was Taco's first time and my first time using an in their home boarder and I can't imagine going anywhere else. He was well taken care of and I didn't hear any concerns the entire time I was out of town. The boarder had a very nice house too so I felt safe as soon as I walked in with Taco. Drop off and pick up was quick and easy and she had everything packed up for him when I got there. She was also so flexible with the times for drop off and pick up. I will definitely be using her again. It makes me feel better about traveling again knowing that I have someone I can trust to watch Taco for me!
Monica (and husband Nick) provided excellent care for my young dog “Sophie.” She was treated to regular walks, play, socialization and nurturing all evidenced by the thoughtful photos and communications that Monica sent to me during the week. Sophie gained a new furry friend too—their dog Norman! I immediately felt peace of mind leaving my dog in their care and you will too! I highly recommend Monica and Nick to care for your pet in their loving home.
Melissa was wonderful!! Her communication was great throughout the whole process. She sent pictures & kept us updated during the time Captain was there. Captain had fun & a great time playing with her dogs, just like he was part of the family. He was even allowed on the bed and gave Melissa kisses he was so happy while he was there. I would have Captain go back there anytime. She was great & I didn't have to worry about a thing. I felt comfortable & knew he was being taken care of!! I would recommend Melissa for a Rover to anyone.
This is our third time using Carey and Bonnie, and once again, we had a great experience. Sam, our Goldendoodle, is an anxious fella who struggles with separation anxiety. They loved on him and made him feel right at home, as always. We received daily updates, photos, and videos throughout his stay. They're the best of the best! THANK YOU@@

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
94% of sitters in Centerville 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 Centerville 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 Centerville.
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 Centerville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 Centerville 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.
