“Samantha is truly a gem and cared for my dog like her own. She sent regular pics and videos. My dog felt at ease for 5 days with her. I wholeheartedly recommend her!!”

“Masha and her family were awesome! We have a dog that is reactive to other dogs and requires medication. We really appreciate the care and attention they gave our dog. We got updates and pictures letting us know all is well with him and that was very reassuring. We would definitely love to leave him with Masha and her family again.”

“Carrie was amazing! Our dog Addie was welcomed in like part of her family, and if only I could read dog minds, I’m sure Addie’s is saying when do I get to go back? We’ll definitely book with her again soon!”

“Such a phenomenal sitter-- she genuinely loves animals and it comes through in her interactions with pets. Sent plenty of pictures throughout my trip and kept me regularly updated. Truly felt like she cared for my cat as if she were my own and that's such a rare trait in a cat sitter.”

“Karen was amazing with Jazzy! Our dog has significant separation anxiety, but Karen immediately understood her needs and knew exactly how to help her feel comfortable and secure. The farmland is a huge plus offering plenty of safe, private space for dogs to play and explore. Best of all, Karen and her family treated Jazzy like one of their own. We had complete peace of mind knowing our fur baby was so well cared for, and we're incredibly grateful to have found a sitter we trust. The ample pictures and videos were an added bonus! We'll definitely be back again and again!”

“This was my very first time letting someone outside of my family watch my dog Zoie, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Nettie was absolutely amazing. She was super responsive, knowledgeable, and had such a calm, positive energy that instantly put me at ease. I could tell right away that Zoie was in great hands. Nettie gave me regular updates and treated Zoie with so much care and attention. She will definitely be my go-to sitter from now on whenever she’s available. Highly recommend!”

“Calvin & Vanessa took wonderful care of our boy during his 9-day stay. He came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. We’re so grateful for the love and attention they gave him and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Thank you!”

“Lauren was wonderful from the first day I met her. She put me at ease about leaving my fur baby with her. She was responsive to my messages and sent plenty of photos. I highly recommend her and would use her again as my petsitter.”

“Cindy was absolutely amazing with our dogs! From the moment we met her, we felt like our pups were in good hands. She sent us lots of pictures and updates which we loved! It was clear they were not only well cared for, but also happy and loved. Knowing they were safe, comfortable, and getting lots of attention made such a difference for us. We’re so grateful we found Cindy and wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”

“Excellent! Thank you Maria and Fernando. They were flexible, friendly, and took good care of our pups. I will go with them again in the future when we go out of town.”

“Jessica was wonderful with Bruno. He was very excited coming into her home. She sent me pictures throughout the time he spent with her. Those pictures were very much appreciated. She was very complimentary of Bruno.”

“My 8 yr old Cavalier King Charles had a great 9 day stay with Joy and Rodney. They were always responsive quickly and made everything easy for us with drop off and pick up even with flight arrival time changes. They sent photos every day and I could see my dog was happy. I left him with Joy & Reilley feeling confident and couldn’t be happier with his care. I definitely will be contacting them in future.”

Candice was absolutely amazing with my family's dog! From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear they truly love and understand animals. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, so I always knew my pup was happy and safe. She kept our dog relaxed, well-cared-for, and maybe even a little spoiled (in the best way!). I couldn’t ask for a more reliable, caring sitter—highly recommend and will definitely be booking again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ashley and Joshua are wonderful. We have left our 3 pups with them twice and have had a great experience. Ashley is very attentive and responsive to the needs of our older dogs. Our pups are very happy staying with there and we feel very comfortable with the care and love they receive.

There are 7,815 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Dayton. About 91% of Dayton sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.

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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 MD ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
