“From taking notes at the meet & greet with loads of great questions, to having a really careful approach to introducing her own little dog to the river guests, I felt really confident that Finn would get great care! Definitely will book again.”
“So & John took such great care of our Ginger and Ozzy! This experience alone will have me coming back to them for care in the future. They were accommodating with schedule which as a great, they were patient and welcoming when showing me their home and yard, and responded quickly to my messages/questions. I appreciated how receptive they were to our dog’s individual needs, and we loved receiving photos and videos of our pups throughout their stay!”
“Katie was very prompt in all text communication as we coordinated our dog’s Rover stay. Our dog was immediately comfortable with Katie and was a happy dog when we picked him up the next morning. We would defiantly use Katie’s Rover service again and would recommend her to anyone.”
“I believe this is Alaska’s 3rd stay with Brittany and I can’t say how well she watches our pup. She keeps her active and snuggles with her. Brittany sends me updates and videos and communicates regularly. She loves dogs and she treats our Alaska as if she was her pup and you can tell — Alaska tends to be super shy around folks and she literally runs in to greet her every time now.”
“Paula is friendly and so knowledgeable. Her dogs were great playmates for my dog, so I got a happy, tired out pup when I came for pick up. Paula was flexible with me on drop off and pick up times due to icy roads - I really appreciated her kind demeanor and quick communication.”
“Highly recommended — Reliable and attentive! Our dog Luna received excellent care, plenty of exercise, and thoughtful updates throughout the stay. Luna looked happy each and every day we were away. Thanks Melani for your excellent care!”

“Josh and Leah (and Charlotte and Max) took care of our dog Max for two weeks. They sent photos every day were easily communicative giving us updates. They took the dogs on daily long walks. Our pup came home happy and tired! We would absolutely trust them again and hope to book again with them.”
“This was Henry’s third stay with Ron and Henry was clearly happy to see him when we dropped him off. As always, when we picked him up he seemed happy and was obviously well cared for. Ron has a great, calm demeanor that makes Henry comfortable immediately. So glad to have a sitter we can trust!”
“Daniel was a knight in shining armor for our family. Our original sitter had a family emergency and we had a flight to catch. Daniel was accommodating and made my pup feel at home with lots of walks and belly rubs. Daniel and his family will definitely be our go to for pet sitting!”
“Allison was very accommodating with our dog Yoshi who still has a lot of puppy energy. I could tell that Yoshi had a great stay, he came back home calm and very affectionate. I'll definitely reach out to Allison for dog sitting in the future.”
“Chaun was a great communicator for the meet and greet and the entire visit during the weekend! Our pup had some tummy issues and she was super on top of it and letting us know what’s going on. I also loved all the pictures and videos of him playing with all the other dogs and kitten she had visiting. Thank you so much for taking great care of Wrigley!”
“Roger That had a wonderful time with Gabe and Greta! Gabe was extremely accommodating and communicative. I got lots of great pictures showing a very happy Roger That! On our walk today, Roger That saw Gabe and Greta, and ran to see them! Tonight he tried to enter Gabe's building to see them again! It's wonderful knowing Roger That has somewhere he enjoys staying when I can't be with him. Thank you Gabe and Greta and cat!”
“Lea and her family were amazing with our two tiny, high-energy and anxious dogs! She was very flexible with us with and kind to the dogs (who were NOT on their best behavior and had some unusual accidents in her home). She provided the pups with a loving and happy home for a few days, which made it much easier for us to move houses without having to worry about them for a few days. Would definitely book again with Lea. She is easy to work with and a very nice person.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cornelius
Allison and her family were fantastic! They were so caring and loving to our dog Bella! She for her ACL 4 days before we had to leave. Allison was more than happy to giver her her meds twice a day. I got pictures and updates everyday. Bella was excited to see us come home but obviously was very loved while we were gone as she was a happy girl when we picked her up. We are booking another stay with her in September!
Omg! Katri and her two doggy kiddos were amazing! She sent out updates through out the day with pictures and videos which I love! Kyro had a blast with them! And katri was so sweet and amazing and probably the one of the best sitter I have come across! She definitely made him feel safe and took such good care of my baby!! Highly highly recommend her!

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.
93% of Cornelius 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 Cornelius 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 Cornelius 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 Cornelius.
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 Cornelius 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 OR 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.
