“Kris took such great care of our Reign! She sent daily updates and pictures that helped me truly relax on our first family trip without our dog. We’d highly recommend Kris!”
“Lynn really helped us out giving Sif a great place to stay while me and my fiance went out of town! She even took her to the vet and accommodated us when our flights were cancelling. Lynn is awesome!”
“Norma and Eric were amazing, I will definitely use them again in the future! We left Lola, our 5 month old puppy with them, it was the first time I have used Rover. We were looking to an alternative to boarding her with her vet because we didn't want her to be left in a kennel for most of the day. She stayed with them for a week and I was updated on her stay and sent a picture of her at least once a day. Although we missed her a lot I could tell she was bring well taken care of. I would highly recommend Norma and Eric to anyone who is looking for a great place for their dog to stay!”
“Chris has watched my dog several times now, and she must love staying with him. She’s normally a very quiet dog that doesn’t let me get far away but when we pull up to Chris’s house she suddenly turns into a sled dog dragging me up the driveway like she can’t get inside fast enough. If she didn’t enjoy being there, she’d be pulling the opposite direction. She always comes home happy, and completely worn out from a full day of fun. Last night when I picked her up, she skipped food, water, and even her usual treat routine because all she wanted was sleep. That tells me she felt safe, played hard, and had a great time. Chris consistently sends photos and videos, which is such a comfort when you’re away and missing your pup. Knowing she wants to go to his home gives me total peace of mind. Highly recommend him.”
“Melissa and her family took amazing care of our Molly! She went above and beyond loving and caring for her. We appreciate the extra work it takes to care for a guide dog. Melissa and zero are her new best friends ! Won't be booking with anyone else !”
“Regina and Ted took good care of Bunny. Videos they sent me showed her playing happily with other dogs. She seemed to fit right in. I know where to take my baby when I need to! I’m so glad to have found them!”
“Kevin and Delinda provided wonderful peace of mind while caring for Olivia. They sent frequent pictures and updates throughout the day, which made it so easy to know she was happy and well cared for. Olivia received plenty of walks, attention, and love during her stay. It’s clear they genuinely care about the pets they watch, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Olivia again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“Autumn was awesome with my babies, they were very happy and she provided pictures and updates daily so i knew how everything was going. I’m very happy with my decision in having her take care of them while i was away”
“We highly recommend Patricio! He took great care of our sensitive dog, Ginger. He sent us a lot of photos and she looked very happy and relaxed. She got to have a lot of playtime with his sweet dog, Laika. He was very communicative and accommodating. When we picked up Ginger, she was happy and tired, so we could tell she had a lot of fun. We will definitely book another stay for Ginger.”
“So glad we found Juliet to care for our GSP. We received daily updates and photos of our dog, and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Ben and Melodie were really great and Luke had the best time. He had so much fun playing and running around. Rambo is tiny but I think he tried his best to keep up. I would recommend them especially if you have a dog that loves to play.”
About: I am a dependable and caring person who genuinely loves spending time with all types of animals. I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re energetic and ready for a long walk or happiest with some extra attention and belly rubs. During walks and drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care while keeping their normal routine in mind. I want every visit to be something your dog looks forward to and for you to feel confident knowing they’re being well cared for while you’re away! As a college student at the University of Oklahoma, my schedule is fairly flexible, more so in the afternoons. I have classes mostly in the morning during the week, but I’m available for walks and drop-in visits in the afternoons and evenings. My weekends are also pretty open, with Saturday home football games being my only commitment. I have lots of flexibility to work around your pet’s routine. Since I’ll mainly be doing walks and drop-in visits, I’ll make sure I follow the instructions you leave for your pet and keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. I’ll pay attention to their behavior and surroundings while we’re out walking, and I’ll make sure they’re settled and comfortable before I leave. I’ll also be respectful of your home and make sure I leave things the way I found them. I’m happy to send a few pictures or updates during the visit so you know how things are going.
“Deanna took Shadow in overnight while we visited OKC and Shadow had a wonderful time. Deanna send picture updates often and I would recommend anyone to bring their dog to her. We will definitely look for availability with Deanna next time we are in town. Thanks”
“I had Ian watch my pup last minute while on a road trip. He provided my dog with a great time and kept her comfortable for the night. She had lots of land to roam on and when I picked her up I could tell she was having a blast.”
About: What sets me apart is my experience and genuine love for animals. I have two family dogs of my own who live back home with my parents, and I’ve been dog sitting since I was 12. Being away from my dogs makes me miss having that animal love around, so I would truly enjoy giving your pets the same love, attention, and care I give my own! Pet care fits really well into my daily routine because my class schedule is pretty flexible and gives me plenty of time throughout the day. On Mondays, my class is from 6–9 PM, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:30–11:30 AM, and Wednesdays from 12–1 PM. This leaves me available most mornings, afternoons, and evenings to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care! I care for every pet as if they were my own and always make sure to follow the owner’s specific routine and instructions. In a client’s home, I make sure their pet feels comfortable by keeping up with their normal feeding schedule, walks, playtime, and any other care they need. I also love giving them plenty of attention and affection so they feel safe and loved while their owners are away!
“Priscilla took great care of my dogs while I was away. They came home happy and content, which always gives me peace of mind. Communication was smooth and very accessible. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I’d definitely trust her again in the future and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Makayla was amazing with our Pitt bull! He had never stayed with anyone before so he was very scared and sad but she was great and he opened right up and was so happy the entire time. We will be using her plenty more in the future!! Thank you so much!! ☺️”
“Maybelin is awesome!! Always quick to respond and very understanding of my anxious dog's needs. Maybelin helped us out pretty last minute with a boarding when our other sitter cancelled. Highly recommend her for all your pet needs!! :)”
“I recently moved to OKC from Houston where he stayed with Tia for years. This was my first time traveling and I can’t be more grateful to Dee & her team. She pIcked up JJ and dropped him off at what would definitely be considered “non conventional business hours” as my schedule is unpredictable. He was exhausted when he came home which means he had a blast & got to play with other dogs. I will use Dee exclusively going forward & Highly recommend”

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
98% of sitters in Etowah can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Etowah 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 Etowah.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Etowah. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Etowah 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 OK 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
