“Abby had a great time at Tom & Tolley’s home. They have 2 sweet, gentle dogs that will get along with any dog. Tom sent pics and a video of Abby’s stay. Abby enjoyed the morning walk, fenced in yard and the family in the home. It was a great experience as this was my first time using Rover.”

“Well this was our first time using Rover and a dog sitter. David was absolutely phenomenal and I would not have anyone else watch my dog. He goes above and beyond as a dog sitter. He and his family spent so much time with Chloe. Teaching her some commands, walking her and playing with her instead of locking her in a cage as a kennel would. He sent many videos and pics throughout her stay and it made us feel comfortable that she was in great hands. If 10 stars were the best rating I would give 20 stars. Thank you so much David.”

“As always, Karin did an amazing job taking care of our dog Graycie. From daily pictures to even letting her crash a Thanksgiving family photo, she makes sure Graycie is taken care of and loved. We can’t thank you enough!”

“Brendan and Sarah were wonderful. They boarded Gracie with little notice, sent lots of photos, and Gracie had such a good time she didn’t want to leave.”

“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”

“Lynn always goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for my 16 year old chihuahuas. She doesn’t just watch them, she loves and cares for them in a way that every pet lover dreams of when it comes to their animals. Along with daily pictures and messages, Lynn even gave us a framed picture of my two pups that I will forever cherish! Could not recommend enough- I even think my dogs were sad when I picked them up because their vacay at Lynn’s was over!”
“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.”

“Stacie and Doug are the best! They treated our Westie like the Queen that she is and sent us notes so we could remain connected. We met in advance of our booking to get to know each other and they were very kind when I had some last minute changes to our agenda. Our pup got along very well with their pup and we would recommend them for your pup as well!”

“Stephanie was awesome with my puppy and was very flexible with pick up times! He had the best time with her dogs and she made she he was comfortable the entire stay. I would highly recommend!”

“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!”
“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”

“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!”

“Very happy with Christina! She accommodated our situation when plans changed last minute! She took good care of our puppy and sent pictures and updates during her stay! Our puppy came home happy and healthy!”

“A perfect stay for our pup - Jim and Kathy are the real deal - kind and paid attention to our dog in a way that feels like family. Our dog is very lucky and so are we!”

“From the moment I met Barbara I knew my pet would be safe with her. Skai took to her right away. Her home was peaceful and welcoming. Barbara kept me updated- assuring me our dog was doing well. I will definitely use her services again.”

“It was our first time using rover so we didn't know what to expect, but I was extremely comforted from the beginning talking with Michelle. We did a meet and greet where she invited us and Buddy into her home. Rocky is such a great host dog! She sent us pictures of buddy laying on the couch getting plenty of attention. Buddy and Michelle's husband were best pals. I wasn't worried about Buddy for one minute and knew that he was having a blast.”


“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”

The median cost per night for dog boarding in Columbia Station is $45
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Columbia Station
This was our first time leaving Kylo with someone other than family. We couldn't have found a better person to care for him! David treated Kylo like his own and his communication is outstanding. We received 30 photos during the few days we were gone, which really helped put our minds at ease. Kylo hadn't had prior experience with other dogs off leash and he absolutely loved David's goldendoodle, Cocoa. David also carefully picks who he will watch and makes sure that the dogs have the same temperament. That is important to us, since our dog is small and somewhat timid. Overall, we had a great first experience and hope we are lucky enough to book David every time! Kylo agrees!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Columbia Station 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 .

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 Columbia Station 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 Columbia Station 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 Columbia Station 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 Columbia Station.
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 Columbia Station 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.
