“This is the first time I've ever had to leave Stewart with someone other than a family member. Needless to say I was very stressed but Stewart did just fine and met new friends! I received daily pics and was starting to wonder if he wanted to come back home, lol! Thank you Leonard and family for taking such good care of Stewart as if he was part of your family! Until next time! Stewart's parents!”
“Marcie & family excepted my request on short notice. She sent pics. She went above and beyond for me and my pup. Her family treated him like one of their own. And for that, I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much!!!”
“Christiana was great! Our two dogs seemed to enjoy their time there & especially loved being able to run around in the backyard! She sent us pictures and updates throughout and was very responsive when I checked in with her!”
“AMAZING!!! First of all even before how amazing these two are - they are right he the airport. About them: I knew my pups were so happy the entire time they were there. I received so many great pictures and little stories about their day. These two were so enthusiastic about loving my dogs and letting me know. Sarah even works from home some days so you know your pups are happy 24/7. My dogs just got home and they are completely passed out so I know they were active and happy. I highly recommend Brendan and Sarah.”
“I would give more stars if I could! Keith and Wendalyn took loving care of my darling Penny as if she were their own dog. Lots of fun walka, cuddle time, time outside. They also made sure Penny adhered to her somewhat strict diet but also got to enjoy some treats. Hoping to rebook with them for my next out-of-town trip!”
“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”

She has a lovely spacious home and a huge fenced in backyard.I would highly recommend Lynn and hope to use her again.”
“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!”
“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.”

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!

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.
96% of sitters in Columbia Station 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 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.
