“Katie and her husband did a fantastic job caring for our Luna in their beautiful home when we were away for 10 days. She sent daily pictures and updates and our dog came home happy and tired from all the playing and adventures she had. They are very reliable and took care of our pup as if she was their own. We had complete peace of mind as we knew Luna was in good hands. Thank you both for taking such great care of her and hope to see you soon again!”

“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.”

“Hashi's stay with Shawna and the ladies of Hootie Pups was great, just as his stay before, even though this time was a little eventful, as Hashi managed to get away from their place (no fault of Shawna's). Immediately Shawna and friends alerted both DogVacay and ourselves.They kept us informed and went above and beyond looking for him on the surrounding streets. Within an hour, he was found. Dogvacay was also very responsive and proved themselves to be a great service in this emergency. We have no issue whatsoever with leaving Hashi with Shawna and friends again as he looked just as happy to see us upon return as he was to stay there.”

“Susie was fantastic and cared for my dog, Totti, for over two weeks, providing an excellent experience throughout. She sent daily photos that gave me great peace of mind, and it was clear Totti was happy, comfortable, and well cared for during her stay. When we picked her up, she looked great, was relaxed and content, and it was obvious she had been treated with kindness and attention. Susie was friendly, highly communicative, and followed all care instructions carefully. I truly appreciated her reliability and care, and I would absolutely trust her with Totti again and book with her in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Very responsive and treated my pups like their own. Even when a slight hiccup happened (my dog refusing her medication), they reached out and problem solved with me so that we could all feel comfortable with the resolution. My dogs were very obviously well taken care of at pickup and I appreciated how warm they were to speak with. Definitely would recommend and will be seeing up future stays.”

“Shari was so friendly, reliable, good communication with quick reply to texts and daily updates of my dog. Would definitely recommend and hopefully will be a repeat customer.”

“This was our first time with Chelsea and it was great! She and her family are kind, knowledgeable, and patient. My dog is on the anxious side even though she loves people and dogs. They have 3 pups of their own, so I felt that my dog would enjoy spending time with the furry kids. We will definitely be boarding again with Chelsea.”

“Buddy was safe and well cared for. Buddy has never been away from me since I got him. I LOVED the pictures and up dates. I didn't worry at all. When I picked Buddy up he was happy and looked great. Thank you Diana you did an outstanding job I will be using you again.”


“Liz was fantastic and had excellent communication. She loved on our pup and took extra special care of him while we were away. Would trust her with our pup anytime!”

“Roxanne was fantastic! She was very good with our pup, and did an awesome job sending us some pictures and videos of what our dog was up too. With the large amount of property it was great to know she was in good hands and that she could run around and play outside. As someone who had never used Rover, Roxanne definitely got us hooked; I’ll never use a kennel again. Thanks again!!”

“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.”

“Lauren was incredible! We were nervous leaving our giant puppy with someone, but immediately felt comfortable because of her confidence and demeanor. Our pup had a great time and seems happier than ever, so we are very thankful to Lauren.”

“Angelica and Bruce took great care of our dog for the weekend. It was really clear from the moment they met our pup that they love dogs. They took him on tons of walks and gave him plenty of attention. We felt extremely comfortable he was in great hands and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a dogsitter in the area.”

“Samantha and Brian’s family watched our Wheaten Terrier for two weeks. They kept us updated with photos and we knew he was in good hands. Thanks for giving Charlie lots of snuggles while we were away.”


“Mariia was incredible from the get go, she was responsive, understanding and willing to accommodate any requests we had. She’s friendly and Kovi, our dog, looked happy and well taken care of! Thank you Mariia! I felt like Kovi was in great hands while we were gone.”


“I’ve been using Vanessa as a dog sitter for the past 4 years, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. Every time I drop Lizzie off, she happily reaches for Vanessa, which tells me all I need to know—Lizzie feels completely comfortable and safe there. I always receive regular updates and photos, and Vanessa is quick to respond to any questions I might have. It gives me peace of mind knowing that Lizzie is in such great hands when I’m away.”

“Melani was great taking care of CalCal my goldendoodle. We met up beforehand to make sure my dog would get along with her dog. She sent many photos during the boarding. Would use her again; thanks Melani!”

There are 1,571 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 OR 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.
