“Kirsten and Nicolas were great! They sent pics during the whole stay and were very communicative. They also have a fenced in back yard that they let the dogs run around in. They updated us when the pups appetites were low, which I really appreciated. Both of our dogs tend to be anxious without us because they aren’t used to used to being alone, so it was also a big plus that they work from home. In the past we have had to send our pups to kennels because we don’t have friends or family near by who can watch them. They would be locked in a kennel all day and we would literally have to pay extra for belly rubs or time out of the kennel. I usually feel uneasy the whole trip but not this time. I could tell they were well taken care of and treated like one of their own. Thank you so much Kirsten and Nicolas!”
“4th… maybe 5th visit (but who’s counting😅) and ember has absolutely loved visiting every time! Always has fun running around and spending time with her dogs, but also laying around and enjoying family time! Always love the updates Loni provides to make sure my pup is doing amazing - already have the next visit planned and I know ember is excited already!”
“Shorey had a great time staying with Nicole! She was able to play outside a lot with Nicole’s pup and was tuckered out when she got home, which was great! Great communication the entire time.”
“We’ve never left our dog with anyone outside the family, but I’m pretty convinced that Ellie felt like Rachel and Jeff WERE family after a week there. There are no words for how grateful we are for their excellent care! She was happy, comfortable, and loved on (I know from the pictures!), and I’m not sure she actually wanted to come back home! I sort of hate to so highly recommend Rachel and Jeff in case they get too booked up to watch Ellie again, but it’s a risk I’m willing to take. We drove more than an hour to them, and after this experience, I’d have driven six. They were wonderful with Ellie but even more lovely as people. I wish I could give more than five stars, because they deserve it!”
“We were very nervous to leave our high energy guy with anyone but Katelyn & Nicholas were the perfect fit! The large yard and other companions kept Bo very busy and happy. They sent us daily updates with pictures and were promt to answer when we texted to check in. Katelyn & Nicholas took the best care of our boy!”
About: I’ve had many different types of dogs throughout my life. More recently I’ve helped care for and watch friends and family members pets while away. I have bathed and groomed my own dog for the last 5+ years. We love long walks, playtime, and most of all the zoomies. My daughter also loves to snuggle and play with any dog that will have her! Due to my daughter’s allergies I am boarding doodles and hypoallergenic dogs only. If we could host all dogs, trust me we would! I currently work full-time Monday-Friday, but I am able to take pets into the office with me any day but weekend stays are preferred. Animals make me happy and any day is better with a dog friend around! I have a flexible schedule and am excited to help care for your pet! I have a large unfenced side yard for pets to explore and potty. A pet friendly neighborhood where lots of dogs are walked at all times of the day. Your pets have free range to my condo minus the basement and are welcome to snuggle up on the couch or bed!
“She and her daughter took great care of our pup. He loved them and seems to have had a great time on vacation from his parents. They took him on lots of walks, played with his favorite toys and gave him lots of love. Thank you so much for being a wonderful sitter to Prince.”
“The comfort of knowing that my boys were loved and cared for so well, was the best part of having them stay with Sally! We received pictures and videos all week while we vacationed - not having to worry about their well-being was so refreshing and relieving. I know these dogs will always enjoy their time with Sally. It’s like they have a vacation of their own!”
“Meleah is an awesome sitter. She took care of our older dog, JoonBug, (which is not easy!) and JoonBug came back in excellent shape! We can tell she was loved on too while we were gone. I would recommend Meleah to anyone!”
“For the first time ever, I had to leave my dog son for more than a day and I was definitely very uncertain on this whole you know . I couldn’t have asked for a better family to watch over my best friend and care for him like they did. Had me at ease while I was gone the whole time if you’re looking for the same reassurance, I was looking no further!”
About: With 5 years of hands-on dog sitting experience, I provide not just supervision, but genuine companionship. Since either my husband or myself are home at any given point of time, your dog will never be left alone — they’ll enjoy constant care, attention, and interaction throughout the day. Either myself or my husband one of us are always at home and can pet sit at any given point of the day / overnight I do have my own pet so we make sure they dont have access to harmful items. They will be continuously monitored especially during meals, walks. Also every pet stays after the initial meet and greet to ensure comfort and fit. I will also be sending out photos/videos on daily basis:)
“Halina and Theodor took such good care of our dog while we were away for a couple weeks. Our dog was very happy and comfortable being there. I would highly recommend choosing them to watch your pet. We will definitely reach out to them again the next time our dog needs a sitter.”
“Our dog Gunner had such a great stay with Bill and his family. The care and attention they gave him was above and beyond. Communication was outstanding. We will definitely be using their services again to take care of our special boy.”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Lindsey and her dogd. He csme home less excitesble due to the smount of plsy time he received. He csme back more trainable because of the more cslm demeaner, and he plays better with other dogs now. Lindsey is s great choice for dog-sitter or, dog-boarder.”
“Ishlamar was very accommodating and listened to all of our needs for our pup, Sadie. She also was very communicative and sent regular updates with photos throughout the entire weekend. Sadie seemed very happy and healthy when we picked her up. We would absolutely book with Ishlamar again in the future!”
“Justin was very responsive and kept me updated by sending photos of Mocha during his stay. My puppy has stayed with Justin multiple times, and I have never been disappointed. It’s clear that he and his son genuinely care about the dogs they watch. I highly recommend Justin and his son to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet sitters.”
“Camille and Josh made Waffles feel like part of the family immediately when he arrived. All of their kiddos were amazing with our dog who usually isn’t around kids and he loved hanging out with them all day. We would definitely book them again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Kilbourne home-away-from-home, 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 Kilbourne.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Kilbourne 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 , 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 .
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.
