This was our first time using Rover and Emily was great. I set up the stay about 2 months out because I wasn't sure how the Thanksgiving would effect finding a place for Lucy. Emily was super and answered so many questions for me. Lucy also had a great time playing with Emily's other dogs.

Ellen was awesome! She is very kind and friendly. She communicated very well before and during my fur baby's stay with her. She gave lots of updates with pictures which was great. This was our first time leaving him and she made the experience awesome. I would highly recommend her and would definitely love to use her services again!

Amber was a rockstar. We are always nervous to leave our senior chiweenie with anyone new because he is very skiddish. He opened up to Amber, and her family was patient as he took more time to become comfy around them. She took him on nice walks and followed the scheduled to a tee. We appreciate the constant communication and honesty Amber provided about Franklin during his stay. We will 100% book Amber again to care for our buddy.

Stellar, exceptional, dope, and just SUPERCALIFRAGALISTIC, this all describes the superior service Zahria provided to my baby and to me. She was great with communicating everyday sometimes multiple times per day which definitely set my mind at ease. Sending pictures and videos of their activities. Her goal was to make him comfortable being away from me and me comfortable being away from him, well she nailed the assignment. Honestly, she treated Onyx so well I was afraid he wouldn't want to come back home, lol. I will most definitely be using her again as soon as the need arises and for as long as she is available. Zahria is highly recommended by me, if you want your baby treated like a King or Queen. Thank you Zahria you are a tough act to follow.

I had a great experience with Maria Jose! Even on very short notice, she was able to take care of Mika and did an amazing job. She sent lots of pictures, took Mika on walks, and made sure she was happy and comfortable the whole time. Mika looked so well cared for that I even joked she might be happier there than at home! Communication was excellent, and both she and her husband were incredibly kind and welcoming. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them.

Christina was amazing with our 8 month old pup! It was our first time boarding him and she put us at ease. She made him so comfortable in her home with lots of treats and love. She even gave us tips to try at home to help with some of his difficult behaviors! And she sent him home with a new toy and an arts and craft project to remember his puppy vacation! We loved Christina and will definitely be boarding with her again!

Lisa was absolutely amazing taking care of my 12-week-old puppy while I was away on a work trip. As anyone knows, puppies require a lot of time, attention, and energy—but she handled it all with ease and such a positive attitude. She kept me updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my puppy was in great hands and being very well cared for. I’m so grateful for her attentiveness, reliability, and kindness. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you, Lisa!

A Day In the Life for a Rover Pup

Dog boarding with an active Star Sitter on Rover will follow the sitter’s schedule and set routine, which may look like a(n):
  • Morning neighborhood walk, such as a stroll through downtown Columbus’ Short North Arts District
  • Mid-day supervised yard time and rest
  • Afternoon enrichment outing or indoor play
  • Potty walk and nighttime winddown
For approved off-leash play, sitters may take pups to dog parks, such as Scioto Audubon Dog Park or Wheeler Memorial Dog Park. Have a dog who likes to join in on errands? Choose a sitter who lives close to dog-friendly locations like BrewDog Franklinton or Seventh Son Brewing in Italian Village.
Need more routine stability? We recommend house sitting as a service for dogs who are sensitive to change. House sitting in Columbus, OH averages $45 per night.
