“I felt comfortable with Cameo right away and knew my pup was in good hands. I received updates and good reports on how things were going for the week. I would definitely use Cameo again in the future!”
“Andrew and his family took great care of Luna. She seems to have settled in quickly with his family of people and pups and came home happy. Would absolutely book with him again.”
“Lauren and her family took Doug in as if he was their own. I recieved updates and plenty of pictures of Doug playing with their puppy Cinder, who is an absolute sweetheart. There is absolutely no doubt that I will be booking with Lauren and her family again.”
“Tom was great with Clyde! This was only a one night boarding, but Tom sent plenty of pictures and a video. I will definitely be using Tom again for a one nighter or a longer boarding of Clyde.”
About: My sweet beagle passed away this summer, and while I’m not ready to bring home another dog yet, I still deeply love pups. So here I am on Rover, hoping to scratch that dog-itch while caring for others. I’m new to the platform, but not new to loving and caring for dogs. I work from home, so your pup gets company and attention all day. I’m active and enjoy walking, live close to a big park, and have a yard right at my apartment for easy outdoor time. I’m a naturally clear, proactive communicator—you’ll get updates and photos without having to ask. I’m responsible, easygoing, and just want to spend my time around dogs. I’d love to take great care of yours! Since I work from home, dogs I care for get plenty of company throughout the day—walks, playtime, and check-ins built right into my normal routine. Mornings usually start with a walk (we’re close to a big park, so there’s plenty of room to roam), with more potty breaks and playtime spaced through the day depending on your pup’s needs. I’m easy to reach and happy to send updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing. I only care for one dog (or one family’s dogs) at a time. I’m not trying to build a pet boarding business, just looking for some side income and to get pup time, so your dog (or dogs, if you have a pair) gets my full attention. My apartment isn’t huge, but it’s clean, calm, and relaxing, and I’m on the first floor right by the door (easy in and out access). I don’t have kids, so it’s a quiet, low-chaos environment. I spent 11 years as an elementary school teacher, so caring for others (kids, families, etc.) is something I know how to do well. I’m also an aunt to 15 nieces and nephews, so I’m used to keeping little ones (two- and four-legged) safe, happy, and looked after. My own dog actually came to me when my brother needed to rehome him, so being a compassionate, reliable caretaker is just who I am.
“Cindy was great. Left lots of photos and even a video of my dog playing in the snow. I was very nervous leaving my dog with a stranger, but felt less and less as the time went on. 5 stars.”
“We had a wonderful experience booking with Lizmarie. She invited us to do a meet and greet before the official booking to ensure our dogs got along with her children. She updated us with photos whenever we asked. It is obvious she has a lot of experience with dogs and she genuinely cares for them. I would definitely want to book with her again and would recommend her to any of my fellow pawrents!”
“Bethany and her family are wonderful! My dog spent a week with them and I could relax on my vacation knowing she was in the best care. Their big fenced in backyard is an added bonus. I would definitely recommend!”
“THE BEST EVER. Took care of my 1 year cavapoo like their own. So many pictures and updates and my honeybun felt so loved. I was so nervous because this was her first time staying with someone and she had a ball! huge backyard and so many cuddles”
“Sorillian provided daily updates and my girls seemed like they had a great time. They returned home tired and happy! I’d definitely book with Sorillian again!”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Hasber take care of my dog, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the very first day, he kept me informed about her schedule, sharing daily updates that provided me with peace of mind. I loved receiving the pictures he sent, it was clear that my dog was having a wonderful time with her smiling photos! Hasber showed a genuine love and care for my pet, going above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable and happy. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my Queenie !! --- Feel free to adjust any part to better fit your experience!”
“Jasmine was amazing with my dog Kobe! She kept me up to date sending pics and informing me of his stay which made me felt relieved he was in great care. I totally plan on boarding my pup with her and her family again on future trips!”
“Lauren and family are so great to my beloved Rocco. I was able to be away and did not worry about his care. I knew he was in good hands which was such a peace of mind! I will be rebooking and encourage anyone who wants to be away from their pet with no worries to do so as well!”
“Can't say enough about how great Hayley is! Super-flexible drop off and pick up (she even offered for us to drop our boy off the night before our scheduled booking at no extra cost). Daily updates with pictures. She even sent us home with some thank-you treats! Appreciate that she doesn't crate her guests so our non-crate-trained pup adjusted seamlessly to her home. Her pre-visit questionnaire and extensive welcome guide tells me that she takes this job seriously; no doubts that my boy was well cared for. Board with confidence with Hayley!”
“Amy and her family are wonderful!! She is kind and caring and my Kona felt like part of their family. I could not leave a higher recommendation. Thank you, Amy. It was sooo appreciated. Kona loved it!!”
“Fernanda and Bruno took great care of my 11-year old chihuahua. She got all the snuggles and cuddles she demanded and I got daily updates to know she was doing well. Recommend!”
“Michelle and her family were absolutely fantastic! They took care of my pup like he was their own. Great communication and tons of pictures. Would recommend them 10/10!”
“Malerie & Blake took great care of our dog, Olive! Olive was so happy staying at their place and they made sure to send so many updates. Olive is excited for her next sleepover!!”

Isabella and Austin were amazing!! This was our first time ever leaving alfie and I was a little nervous. Isabella made sure to send lots of pictures, tell me how he was, and I so appreciated her thoughtfulness and communication. Alfie had the best time with their pup Kona too! We will definitely be using them again!
Jasmine stayed with Brittany last weekend.. Brittany and family treated Jasmine as their own.. Jasmine gets really anxious with thunderstorms, Brittany did everything possible to comfort Jasmine and ensure she was not anxious.. I’m definitely going to have Brittany take care of Jasmine for all my future requirements..
Sorillian and her family treated our dog, Bo like he had always been part of her family- how do I know? Everyday she would send a photo of Bo along with a little message and he is literally smiling! I would recommend Sorillian to anyone wanting extra special care for their pets. 🐕
Kristy was a godsend and helped us whilst we were on vacation out of the country and needed to find a new home for our dog. Our dog was happy with her and so we were able to enjoy our vacation too. We picked him up happy! Thank you so much Kristy, definitely will be using her help again!
Cameo is friendly and welcoming. She took us on short notice, the day before we needed to leave our dog with her — after a visit to her home to make sure it would be a good fit for Harley our dog. Her own dog is very easy-going and her home and backyard are well-suited for caring for dogs. The backyard is fenced in and big enough for a dog to run around and explore. There are plenty of places in her home for a dog to get comfortable too. Our beagle-mix is just under 40 lbs. Harley is a senior. We had a number of instructions when it came to meals, food restrictions, and a pain pill. Cameo didn’t seem to mind at all. We received a photo twice a day on most days. Harley seemed to miss his caretaker and his new dog friend when we got home. (He doesn’t normally get a lot of time with other dogs.)
Paula did a wonderful job taking care of Millie! She was so organized and friendly, and Millie definitely had a great time. Paula also made herself available at the last minute -- an hour and a half before we needed her. We couldn't have done our fun, last-minute excursion to Columbus without her.
Our dog Apollo has been staying with Liz Marie and her family every time we’ve traveled for the past year or so, including a recent 3 week trip. Having peace of mind that he was being taken care of by people who love him while we were oceans away meant so much to us, and we love getting regular updates and photos. We especially appreciate Liz Marie’s responsiveness and flexibility with pick up and drop off times and her dedication with the various medications and creams Apollo has needed. Thank you again for welcoming Apollo into your family!
Toby had a fantastic stay with Shannon! We had to reschedule a returning flight and Shannon was flexible and helped accommodate an additional two nights. He was well cared for and got along with their dog and kids well. We received a number of adorable photos. We would absolutely book with Shannon again. Thank you!

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.
94% of Hilliard 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 Hilliard 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 Hilliard 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 Hilliard.
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 Hilliard 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.
