“Dawn did a great job! She sent updates with pictures daily, which we really appreciated. It was nice having someone that you could tell really enjoyed what she does! We had no worries leaving him.”
“I was glad to have found Kim via Rover. My cousins were able to have lots of fun attending my son’s wedding knowing their fur baby Macchie was cared for very well. Kim was very accomodating! Such a good experience. Will choose her again in the future!”
“Megan and David are amazing! I was so nervous to leave my older girl with her high maintenance health care needs, but I was able to have a relaxing trip knowing she was in good hands. They have a ton of animal care experience and the sweetest dog who was so patient; my girl was able to fit right in with the family. They are quick to respond and gave me daily updates with pictures. I couldn't recommend them enough and hope they are available the next time my pup needs a home away from home.”
“Jessica was absolutely the best pet sitter! She was so sweet and really loves animals! She has the best setup for watching them in her home! She had a nice area for my cat to be separate if he chose to from her pets - but her pets were awesome also! I highly recommend her to everyone! I had been super anxious and worried about leaving my kitty, but my mind was at ease and I could relax on vaca because I knew my kitty was being extremely well taken care of! She also sent daily pics and notes, which was so great! Thank you so much Jessica!”
“She took such good care of our dog Buddy. Very thorough and conscientious with their diet medications and especially dogs who are older. We would definitely use her again.”
“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!”
“Our dog had a great stay! We appreciated the thorough communication and vetting Alycia does with all dogs who stay with her. Alycia sent great photo updates throughout his stay and he got personal care and attention. Will use again!”
“Ronald and his family could not have been better sitters for our 2 labs. They were so thoughtful and provided a loving home for our pups while we were away. I will definitely continue to book Ronald on future trips.”
“Hazbleydy I. & her husband were great! My dog can be very anxious and is usually not fond of new people but she had a great time at their house. Hazbleydy kept me updated with pictures the entire time, and even went out to get supplies for my dog that had ran out of during the stay. I would highly recommend her!”
“Paige and Steve and their family were wonderful in caring for Mango! They provided regular updates and quick responses. Mango had the best time running around and playing with the kids. I would highly recommend their services and would not hesitate to book again.”
“Rebecca is the best! We know our dogs are in great hands when they are staying with her, and the boys are treated as well as if they were her own dogs. This is our third booking and we hope she does this for a long time!”
“Dani and Jathan were amazing. Being able to enjoy our soccer weekend without worry of our little guy was such a relief! Such incredible people and I’m so happy we found our forever doggy sitter!!! Thank you both!!!”
“Elisheba was wonderful with my dog. She gave me daily updates on how she was doing and sent me fun pictures of the adventures they had while I was gone. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your pet as she has a true love for animals and she will welcome them into her home and take care of them as if it was her own pet.”
“Kiersten provided a happy, loving, and relaxed environment for our doggo who is often anxious in boarding situations. Boo had a wonderful time playing with her other dogs and Kiersten took great care of her!! Will definitely use Kiersten again!”
“Kayla is amazing with animals!!! She had Zeus for me when he was a little pup and he totally remembers her this past weekend! He’s way more to deal with but she handles him perfectly! Her patience is amazing!”
“I would use Aparajita again in the future. She treated my baby like one of her own, even talking care of his itchy paws. I was constantly updated with pictures and messages that explained what they did that day and how she treated the itch. I had a worry free vacation because of her.”
“Tasha and Joe were great! They took good care of my fur babies and sent pictures and updates everyday. Very satisfied and will definitely book with them again in the future.”
“Louie had so much fun with Blake and the whole family. Katie was attentive, flexible and made sure to check in for our reassurance. This was Louie’s first time away from us so we are incredibly grateful for the care he received. We look forward to next time.”

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 Fivemile 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 Fivemile.
<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 Fivemile 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.
