“KIrsten did a great job keeping my dog. i had a meet and greet before trip so I knew my dog would be in great hands. She was quick at responding and sent me pictures and updates. Kirsten was helpful when my plans changed and i needed to update dates. Will definitely rebook.”
About: I’ve loved every animal I’ve come in contact with since I was a little girl. I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, a few birds, small caged animals and aquariums for 35+ years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from Chihuahua's to Rottweiler’s, the high energy of Boxer’s and the laziness and cuddles from my very own Shih-Tzus. I know how I want my animals to be cared for and I can guarantee yours will be loved as my own when in my care. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom. My days and home are open to care for your pets when you are away at work or on vacation. Your dogs vacation will here will be as enjoyable as the one you are on. In the event I have to leave the home, your dog will only be left for a maximum of 2 hours. I have a fully fenced yard, a gated front porch, a two point entry coming in from garage. Dogs will have big comfy couches, plush dog beds, fresh blankets, clean bowls and endless love and treats (if allowed) If you prefer a crate for overnights or down time, one can be provided for you. If medication is needed I am a master at administration, just ask my dogs :)
“Arya took excellent care of our dog. He is new to Ithaca (moved here 2 weeks ago) and still working out some of the details of his dog care business, but he is very conscientious and knowledgeable when it comes to dogs -- and he clearly loves them! Arya answered questions via text promptly and sent 3-4 videos of our dog per day (in which Jackie always looked very happy!). We would definitely leave Jackie with Arya again, and would recommend him to other dog owners without hesitation.”
“Scott and Katrina were wonderful! They communicated with us throughout Kona’s stay and sent lots of photos and videos, which we really appreciated. Kona loved playing with their dogs and having their beautiful backyard to run around in. Scott and Katrina were both so sweet with her, and it was obvious that Kona felt happy and comfortable with them. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!”
“We LOVE Karen. I have never left my baby with anyone else but our former groomer. She made my day sending pictures and a video. My baby came home the happiest I have ever seen her come home when we have been away. No anxiety, no issues, just happy We will be using her again in the future. Thank you Karen and to your family as well for welcoming my baby into your home and for taking such good care of her. God Bless you!!”
“Tharatip & Daniel did a fantastic job sitting for Chewie! They sent several pics and videos over the weekend while they watched her. They were treating her like part of their family which is what we were looking for. Thanks again!”
“Taylor was amazing! She was flexible when our pickup time was pushed. Benny is an anxious boy sometimes but came home so happy like he’d never been somewhere new.”
“Maolin was a great caretaker for Nash. We were away on vacation for 10 days and she sent daily photos and videos as well as took Nash to the local dog park to play around. She really seemed to care a great deal for Nash as like she was her own. Would definitely use again and refer her to others!”
“Kyla has kept my doggo several times and he comes back healthy and happy every time. She’s attentive and informs me of any problems she notices (i.e. constipation or such), and even goes the extra mile to change his outfit daily! We love Kyla and I’ll definitely be rebooking ♥️”
“Victoria is amazing! Constant video updates and our puppy has never looked happier to have so many dogs and a puppy to play with and to be cuddled on the couch. He's also learning alot, thank you so much for being so kind, communicative, helpful, and a great host!”
“Pam and Tallaferro did an amazing job with Shade. I received daily updates and pictures which let me know she was safe. I’d recommend them to any dog owner who’s looking for a safe and fun home for a few days while away for work or a vacation.”
“Jodi and Reya are great to work with! They cared for our two senior citizen dogs for a week. We received lots of photos and updates that put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our time away. Both dogs returned home calm and happy! We would recommend them and would be very happy to work with them again!”
“Krystie goes above and beyond! Constant updates and communication, and my pups were so happy the whole time. She was very accommodating when we had to adjust our pickup time and made it happen! We will recommend Krystie to all of our friends and family and we will board with her again!”
“Deanna provided such a great experience for my fur baby. She was very attentive to her and made her feel right at home. Deanna kept me informed of her progress and provided me with pictures and videos throughout her stay. Deanna’s dogs are very social and well behaved and welcomed my dog into their little pack. I could tell my Sofee had the time of her life. I would definitely rebook with Deanna.”
“As a general consumer, I like to read reviews before I purchase a product or a service. After reading all the great reviews for Emily’s service, we decided to place our dog with her for 13 days and let me tell you, we were completely satisfied with the whole experience. Emily was quick to respond when booking and was flexible with pick-up and drop off times. She sent lots of playful pictures and provided feedback throughout the 2 weeks that we were gone to include whether or not she was eating, letting us know that she was adjusting, and letting us know that she was doing well. These updates helped have ease of mind on vacation knowing that she was being well taken care of. Emily is friendly and tentative and I would 100% recommend you use her services for short and long term boarding !”

Sierra is absolutely lovely! She was very friendly and kind to all of us, and I can tell that the puppies had a very pleasant time staying with her! It was a wonderful surprise to also get party pictures of the pups for New Years! They looked super special in their party hats! Would highly recommend Sierra to anyone looking for an amazing dog sitter!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Heath is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $39 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of November 2026, there are 826 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Heath. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
95% of sitters in Heath can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Heath 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 Heath.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Heath. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Heath 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
