“Karin was absolutely amazing! She opened her home up to my puppy Bentley! She gave exceptional care to him. She went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable! She gave updates throughout the days she kept him and he even interacted with her dog. I give her 12/10 stars. She was absolutely wonderful and trustworthy with my baby boy!”
“Chris and his family were awesome! Chris communicated very well during the booking process and gave updates during Max’s stay. Max had a great time especially with the kids and came home tired from all the fun. Thanks Chris!”
“Meeko stayed with Jennifer for the first time last week and we were so happy with our experience. She has a big beautiful family so there is no shortage of love given to your pet. But between her own dogs and others boarding, Meeko had the best time playing with all of them and Jennifer sent plenty of photos and updates. We will absolutely use her services again I highly recommend her!”
“John and Kelly took really great care of Koda! They kept us updated on how he was doing and gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation. We look forward to booking with them in the future since Koda enjoyed his stay so much!”
“We were so pleased with the care Catherine provided for our pup. We received frequent photos and updates of her daily care and activities. We will definitely be using them again! Thank you for such wonderful care ❤️”
“Brendan and his family made sure our pups were cared for and happy while we were on vacation. We appreciated his updates and wouldn’t hesitate to book him again!”
“Sheila and Jeff were great with our pup! They asked lots of great questions before our dog's stay to ensure she would be comfortable. They took awesome care of our dog, and sent lots of photos. They have a very nice and secure fenced in yard, and their two dogs are very sweet and playful. We will definitely use them for future stays!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog for a trip let alone using Rover. Aparajita understood and helped assure me my precious boy would be safe and happy with her. I got lucky finding someone so competent with guardian breeds...and with people.”
“Amanda was great. She send updates and pictures daily. Our dog also has anxiety so it was good for her to be around people and other dogs and not crated all day. I would recommend Amanda!”
“I felt immediately comfortable with Myra upon meeting her. Sage had a great week and ate all week, something she never does in a kennel. Myra is a puppy lover and kept us updated during the week. We plan to use her service again in a few weeks!”
“Sarah and Matthew are a DREAM for dog sitters and their beautiful farm is just paradise for any pup. They took such great care of our dog for eight days. They’d send pictures daily and communicated with us each day. Absolutely five star rating!”
“Rachel is an incredible person. She adored my dog as if it were her own. She ensured that my dog felt at ease in a new environment. I truly appreciate her efforts and highly recommend her services.”
“Kristin was very proffesional and accommodating. We were able to easily schedule a meet and greet before booking the service. She sent daily updates, including pictures, and was very communicative throughout the entire process. We look forward to booking with Kristin again!”
“Our dog had a wonderful visit. We were sent daily updates and photos. Our dog enjoyed playing with Kathryn’s dog in her big fenced in yard and the family seemed very welcoming.”
“Debbie was all that our girl, Rose needed and more! We were thrilled with the care that Debbie and hubby Randy provided for her. Rose is a rescue and used to being an "only child" and Debbie worked with us and our needs. Debbie was so kind to send us pics and videos while we were away showing that Rose loved her temporary home with Debbie and Randy and she can't wait to visit again when we are away for spring break! :) Thank you, Debbie!”
“Catherine took excellent care of my 2-year-old doodle, was very responsive, and sent regular updates over a week-long boarding stay. I highly recommend Catherine.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dodds
Chris did a great job with our Springer Spaniel. He was vey accommodating when we had to change our drop off time. He sent pictures of the fun he was having and even had him hang out at a bonfire. We are so appreciative of the care our fur baby was given. We will be back.
The only reason I’m not leaving 5 stars for Heather is because an already scheduled drop off date had to be changed by her at the very last minute which caused me to have to really scramble to get my dog Maggie to her by an alternate time the next night. Other than that I was very pleased and will book with her if I have future boarding needs. Heather took very good care of Maggie who has some separation anxiety issues and made her feel comfortable. Maggie requires medication in the form of a pill 3x day which Heather agreed to and took care of. Correspondence and pictures were adequate during the stay. All toys and other items that I left with her were returned when I picked Maggie up at the end of my trip. Once again I would recommend Heather.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Dodds 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 Dodds.
<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 Dodds 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.
