“Susan was so amazing. She is the kindest person and truly loves all animals. Delilah stayed with her for two nights and had a great time with Susan and the other pups at her house. Her large, fenced yard is a dog's dream. Susan also had great communication and provided frequent pictures and updates. I highly recommend.”
“John and his wife Kelly took awesome care of our senior pup. They were fast with communication, gave her meds, and were very loving towards our girl. We will use them again!”
“Misty did a good job with my dog, was very responsive, dealt with a skin issue he developed, and gave him his medicine. I would recommend her, and would use her services again!”
“Jennifer was awesome. Izzy (10 month old goldendoodle) loved both her and her dog; Theo. We got photos and updates almost daily. I would highly recommend Jennifer as a sitter, she truly loves the pets in her care.”
“Once again Paisley’s second parents came through for us! Paisley has some health issues and not only did they give her all the meds (which were a bit complicated) they took daily walks. I’m sure she will be expecting those now that she’s home! 😂 Michael continued to send us pictures to let us know she was okay. She misses them I’m sure!”
“Jenna took excellent care of our 10 month old golden retrieve Coco. She and her family welcomed Coco into their home and provided the care and attention Coco needs. Jenna even sent texts and photos which reassured us Coco was doing well. We never like to leave Coco at a kennel when we go out of town. She is confined in a kennel with limited attention. It is good to know we have a wonderful home where Coco is welcomed and will receive loving individual care and attention thanks to Jenna. Debbie R”
“Teah was great. We had our puppy stay with her, which can be a bother. She and her husband taught him how to fetch and sent us videos and pics. I would highly recommend Teah for your sitting needs. We will use her again and again given her availability.”
“Melissa was very accommodating and helpful. She accepted and helped carry in his crate which is the safest place for him if they leave the house. She said that would only be for a short time and maybe not at all. She sent several pics of our dog playing outside , interacting inside or making himself at home on a bed. He was safe and returned home tired from all of his play/running around. I was very grateful for Melissa’s care.”
“Tiny came home super happy and of course tired, right after I left him on their doorstep, I knew he was going to be just fine, the chemistry betweenthen and the dogs is awesome. Rachel and Nick kept me update all weekend on how Tiny was doing and sent pics. I'm very happy to found them.”
“Sandy made the whole experience wonderful for me and my dog. I was traveling by RV and wanted to explore the area but I didn’t want to leave my dog in the RV unattended. I located Sandy on Rover several days before I arrived and she assured me my dog would be safe and happy in her home. Sandy was very welcoming and showed me around her home and yard. I am very pleased and grateful with the service she provided.”
“Alej was so sweet to my fur baby. She sent update a pic of Thor for his overnight stay. She really seems to love pets. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Alej 😀.”
“This was my first time using Rover. Kimberly responded to my initial request to board my dogs at her house within minutes and was able to board them on short notice. She was very friendly and flexible with pick-up and drop-off times since she works from home. Her backyard is fenced and pretty spacious which allowed my dogs to get some exercise. Kimberly sent multiple photos and videos during my dogs’ four-night stay. She has a dog who got along with my two except for some minor disagreements (growling) during meal time. I would use Kimberly again.”
“I appreciate Tasha and Joseph’s calm nature and loads of experience. They are not only sweet people but confident caretakers! Definitely feel confident when my dog is with them that she is in good hands.”
“Elisheba and her family took Ember in and were very kind. Thank you for the hospitality and the great care at a last minute notice. Ember loved the yard and enjoyed having extra people to play with her, it takes a village!”
“Dantasia was awesome! This was my first time using Rover and she made the experience excellent! My dog loved her and her family and returned to me as happy and healthy as she was dropped off.”
“Lisa was great! She sent daily pictures of my Gizmo and her family treated him like their own! I highly recommend her! She’s awesome! Thanks for caring and loving on my fur baby! We appreciate it!”
“Patrica is THE BEST. We’ve left our little guy with her several times. She takes him on lots of walks every day and sends lots of pictures and video updates. Apollo is always excited to hang out with his buddies (her other dogs)”
“Brendan and his family took great care of my 3yr old Lab - Indy. Clear communication, quick responses, updates with pictures, easy check-in and check-out. Not to mention, his little pup Ollie. Indy had a good time playing with and looked relaxed throughout the stay. Highly recommended and will certainly come back. Thanks Brendan! 😊”
“Colleen was amazing with our pup! She was quick to respond to the initial request and was extremely accommodating for a quick meet & greet before confirming the booking (ensuring that we had peace of mind that our pup would be a good fit with her family!) During our time away, she kept us updated with lots of fun pics, which we loved! Roo seemed to have so much fun while we were gone that I'm not sure she wanted to come home!!! We are certain that if we're heading out of town again, we'll check with Colleen first before going to anyone else!”
“Raven was such a lifesaver for us. We went out of town last minute, and she was able to take such amazing care of our dog. We are so grateful and will definitely use her again. 🙂”

Raven is an excellent sitter! I’m always hesitant leaving my dog child with someone for the first time. She stayed in touch often with pictures and updates which helped put me at ease. Her Son was awesome with Trixy and helped make her stay comfortable! I’d definitely contact Raven for future stays. We’re lucky to have her on Rover!!!
Maddie is such a wonderful sitter and took great care of our Small Munsterlander while we were on a long vacation. The best part was that Maddie goes on regular hikes, so our pup got all the exercise she needs! They both had a great time together, and were so happy to have found someone who’s a perfect fit!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Forest Park on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 841 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Forest Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
91% of Forest Park 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 Forest Park 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 Forest Park 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 Forest Park.
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 Forest Park 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.
