“Amber did an amazing job taking care of Beans (9 month old lab) for an entire week. She was prompt with updates and photos upon my request. I’d highly recommend trusting her with your pet.”
“Hatsuki is a wonderful mommy for my kitty, Vivi. She is genuinely compassionate and a caring person for the animals who cannot talk. She gave a very comfortable home for Vivi during her stay. Thank you, Hatsuki, for all you have done to me and my kitty. Vivi said she was happy to have met you, and looking forward to meeting with you again. Many thanks for your kindness. Makiko”
“I appreciated that they were focused on getting Piper to eat since I'd relayed that when she gets anxious (like while I'm away) she tends to not want to eat. They sent well-timed pictures that showed the dogs relaxed by themselves or with one of the family. The stay went well but it was a bit confusing with having both ladies message me answers to the same question.”
“Ashleigh and Bill are amazing! They treat our golden like one of their own! He even hogs their bed lol… We are so thankful for such awesome people to watch our guy when we travel!”
“My dog settles right in with Tami! It is so important to feel like your fur baby is getting the best of care in a boarding experience, and that is what you will get with Tami.”
“Kody’s stay with Karen was awesome. She treats your pet like her own. She is so lovable and very educated about dogs. She follows all rules left by the owners. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Kyri has been great each time 😊 She is always so nice and patient. Emir loves her and enjoys his time at her house. I appreciate the fact that she communicates daily and sends pics and videos to update me on how he's doing. Also, Emir gets to socialize with other dogs in a safe environment.”
“Claudia watched Junior while I was on a vacation overseas. He got along so well with her and her fur baby that I had no concerns while I was away. She sent tons of pics letting me know he was having a good time. Lastly, I had some issues that affected my pick up time & she was very understanding of the situation. Highly recommend & I would book future stays with Claudia.”
“Treven loved having other dogs to play with and Vanessa provided extra reassurance that things were going well throughout his stay. I hope he is able to stay with her and her family again.”
“Katherine was amazing. She really listened to my instructions and was very easy to communicate. I can tell she really cares about what she does. I also can tell by my energies dog when I pick him up that he had a lot of fun. Maybe more fun than when he is with me😀”
“I hate to leave a review and share our secret spot but... Anna was amazing with our skittish/grumpy mini dachshund. She walked, played with, and even did training with her. We received many pictures and videos while we were away. Our dog received so much attention and toy play that she came home and slept for about 3 days! We will definitely use Anna again!”
“Nate and Whitney were one of the greatest first experiences to have using the rover app they took such good care of us and constantly gave us updates as to anything that was going on. They will definitely be my first choice the next time I use the service 10 out of 10.”
About: I have many animals myself, 4 cats and one big dog- he’s a boxer and his name is Brutus, he’s a very sweet boy. I’ve been in charge of feeding and walking my animals since I can even remember! I’m currently working part time, I’m attending college here soon part time as well but I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! As of right now I’m available on weekends after 11am! I will take care of your pets (and your home) just like I do with mine, even better! I love animals and would love to meet yours!
“2nd time utilizing Amber and will continue to do so! I have no worries when I go out of town leaving my pup here. They spoil him rotten and send me all the pictures. They even tried a sound machine to calm him down during the storm which I thought was super sweet and took a last minute booking for me. Very grateful to have them as our sitter! Would absolutely recommend to everyone.”
“Jeanie was wonderful with our cockapoo Lily, who has a lot of anxiety, when she took care of her for 4 days. Jeanie even did her errands ahead of time so she wouldn't have to leave Lily alone. She went beyond the call of duty! Thank you so much Jeanie!”
“Elya was by far the best dog sitter we’ve found on Rover. She was so intentional to spend time with our dog, taking her on walks and giving her a bath during her stay. It felt like we were dropping our dog off at a friends’ house rather than just a boarding place. Easily 5 stars!!!”
“Mandy was amazing! Josie immediately felt comfortable and at home with her and the family. We were able to meet ahead of time to make sure everything was to run smoothly and I was thankful for that time. Having an animal reactive pet brings a lot of stress and anxiety when it comes to boarding and dog sitters, but Mandy erased all of my anxiety with her above and beyond care and communication. While out of town I had continuous message AND picture updates of my fur baby and I was so grateful. Cannot wait to book with this crew again! 💕”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fairborn
Amber took such great care of Poppy! Since Poppy is a very anxious dog, it meant a lot knowing she was comfortable, happy, and getting her medication whenever she needed it. Amber kept us updated with pictures throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind. Her fenced backyard was perfect for Poppy the tripod, who loves spending time outside soaking up the sun. One can truly tell how much Amber loves animals. She’s reliable, flexible and knowledgeable. We felt completely at ease leaving Poppy with her, and she’ll definitely be our go-to sitter from now on!
Engi was fantastic! I was so nervous leaving my baby dog for three days but she kept me updating how he was doing and sent lots of pictures. Max had such a good time. Very professional. I could tell she absolutely loves animals and was very informative. Will definitely use her again!

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.
94% of Fairborn 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 Fairborn 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 Fairborn 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 Fairborn.
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 Fairborn 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.
