I've used Emily twice now, and couldn't have asked for more. She is an excellent and trustworthy care provider. My 1 year old doberman stayed for 12 days and had a blast. Emily was attentive and kept in touch the entire time with photos and videos.

Hallie was awesome with our dog for a long weekend trip. She has a nice clean home with a fenced in yard. We felt really comfortable the whole time and did not worry about Foss at all. He did great with her pups and it’s obvious she cares so much about our dog’s well-being which is exactly what we want when leaving our dog with someone. She was quick to respond to all of our messages, too.

Emily responded quickly, sent pics of my boys playing in the yard. She said they didn't eat much the first day but that's to be expected because they get anxious being left behind. But having boarded my dog tigger before he's usually anxious for days after being picked up and didn't have that this time, so that tells me a lot.

We were in town for a wedding. Knowing Lucy was being so well cared for allowed my husband and I to enjoy our family and the festivities. Thanks Jessica!

I was impressed with Sasha from the very beginning. She started off our interaction by inviting me over a few days before Fort's scheduled stay to get him acquainted with her home, family, and her dog, Barack (who is delightful). I really appreciated her taking the time to introduce our dogs slowly and properly, and we talked at length about Fort's care, temperament, and behavior. After we addressed each other's questions and concerns, we were confident that Fort would fit in well with her family, and we solidified our plans for her to watch him while I was gone on vacation. Throughout the week, Sasha sent me lots of photos and updates on Fort to show me what a great time they were having. He got to go on lots of adventures, long walks, trips to the park, play fetch, have playtime with Barack, and even got to sleep on her bed! Knowing he was having a blast helped put me at ease and enjoy my trip. When my flight home got rescheduled, she was very accommodating and was able to watch Fort for an extra day, offering to pick up some more food for him or share Barack's since I didn't pack enough. She even offered to give him a free bath before I returned. Sasha said she and her family enjoyed Fort's company, and I am thrilled by the care and attention she gave Fort during his stay. For all of my future trips, she will absolutely be my first choice sitter. If my travel plans work out, he will be seeing her again this summer!

About: I had a French bulldog for 8 years and from the puppy zoomies to the tough senior days. He was my heart, and caring for him through everything, including his battle with cancer and the seizures that eventually took him, taught me patience, empathy, and how to handle pets with medical needs and emotional sensitivity. That experience set a foundation for how I care for all animals, with gentleness, attention to detail, and a whole lot of love. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, because I’ve been in your shoes. You can count on me to treat your pet like family because that’s the only way I know how to care for them! I have a full time job, but I would love to help on weekends and after work! I also have a roomate that works some days remote who would be willing to help me with in house care. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, especially when their routine changes. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I create a calm, secure environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding times and walks to medications or favorite toys, so your pet’s routine stays consistent. I keep a close eye on behavior, and I’m experienced with dogs who need a little extra attention, including seniors or pets with medical needs. Above all, I respect your home, your pet’s boundaries, and your trust. I always give regular updates, photos, and am just a message away, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

A Day In the Life for a Rover Pup

Dog boarding with an active Star Sitter on Rover will follow the sitter’s schedule and set routine, which may look like a(n):
  • Morning neighborhood walk, such as a stroll through downtown Columbus’ Short North Arts District
  • Mid-day supervised yard time and rest
  • Afternoon enrichment outing or indoor play
  • Potty walk and nighttime winddown
For approved off-leash play, sitters may take pups to dog parks, such as Scioto Audubon Dog Park or Wheeler Memorial Dog Park. Have a dog who likes to join in on errands? Choose a sitter who lives close to dog-friendly locations like BrewDog Franklinton or Seventh Son Brewing in Italian Village.
Need more routine stability? We recommend house sitting as a service for dogs who are sensitive to change. House sitting in Columbus, OH averages $45 per night.
