“Joe took excellent care of my Cavaliers while I was out of town. He is super sweet and chill, and you can totally tell that he loves dogs. My dogs returned home tuckered out and happy from playing all day. I am so happy with this visit — my dogs will be returning to Joe’s for sure!”
“Julia was great to work with! Juniper came back all tuckered out and I could tell she had a great time staying with Julia & family. She was also able to get us in last minute and very accommodating when we were running late for pickup! I would definitely book with her in the future 🐾🐶”
“I have a 12 yo German Shepard. He's an old man now. We were going away for New Years and our normal sitter wasn't available. I was apprehensive about leaving him with someone new. Karin was spectacular. She was attentive to his needs and careful about his 'age' related shortcomings. She has a pup of her own and a young son who loved my boy. Karin sent plenty of pics of him and was very communicative during his stay, asking questions to make sure behaviors were normal and making sure he'd tolerate the environment there! I don't know how many stays my old man has left in him, but Karin is definitely the person I'd want watching him when I leave!”
“Fred had such a good time! He loves going to see Catherine, and he is treated like a member of the family! Jovie wore him out! :-) Another wonderful stay! Thank you so much!”
“Chris and his family took great care of my dog when my initial plans for boarding fell through at the last minute. I received daily updates and pictures. I can tell they treated my baby very well. I am extremely appreciative, and will be booking again.”
“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!”
“This was our second time leaving our dogs with McKenzie and she takes such great care of them. We couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter while we go out of town. I love getting updates throughout the day that include pictures and videos. It makes me feel so much better leaving them knowing they are well taken care of! She is very accommodating with the dog’s schedules and any specific needs they have. My dogs love playing with ducky and obi also. Highly recommend!!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Kate was great about sending pictures and letting us know how our Memphis was doing. He must have had so much fun with her kids and their dog as he slept for what seemed like 3 days straight after he got home. :) Thank you for taking such good care of him!”
“Nicole did a great job watching our dog. She sent pictures every day and updated us on how she was doing. Her daughter was great with our dog as well. Thank you so much Nicole!!!”
“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!”
“Lisa and her family were very flexible, easy to work with and communicated with us daily. They took great care of our dog and welcomed him into their family. Would definitely use again. Thanks so much”
“Ryan is great! He has watched Niko, our GS mix a few times now. This last time we were gone for over a week, when we picked up Niko he was freshly bathed and tuckered out from his 3mile walk. We hope to use Ryan again!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Franklin
Julia and her husband took great care of our two pups! They helped us feel more comfortable being out of town. They picked up our dogs and dropped them off which helped tremendously. We have pretty high energy dogs and they were wore out for days after their stay with Julia. Will definitely reach out to them again for future help!

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 Franklin 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 Franklin 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 Franklin 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 Franklin.
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 Franklin 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.
