“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”
“I felt totally at ease leaving our standard poodle with Andreja for a 4 day weekend. She sent photos of Ruby my dog, and I appreciated it and it gave me ease in leaving her. Totally trust her and would leave Ruby with her again. Vicki Hudak”
“Apryl kept me updated with lots of pictures throughout my dog’s visit. She even took my dog for a hike! My dog was welcomed by Apryl’s entire family and I’m so thankful to have found her! Will definitely use again!”
“Christiana was great! Our two dogs seemed to enjoy their time there & especially loved being able to run around in the backyard! She sent us pictures and updates throughout and was very responsive when I checked in with her!”
“From the moment I met Barbara I knew my pet would be safe with her. Skai took to her right away. Her home was peaceful and welcoming. Barbara kept me updated- assuring me our dog was doing well. I will definitely use her services again.”
“First time using Rover & leaving our precious pup with someone else. We are so glad we found Carey! She helped us feel at ease and sent lots of updates & pictures! Her dog is very sweet & the 2 of them got along without issues. He was well cared for & loved. He also got a lot of exercise! So much better than being locked up in a kennel! We hope she can watch him many more times in the future!”
“I can’t recommend Sarah and Brendan enough!! They were so sweet, responsive and took great care of our girl! We loved all the updates and pictures they provided. We will definitely be using them again ??”
“Amanda and her family took wonderful care of Riley! Their home was warm and welcoming, and Riley was clearly very loved. She kept me updated with photos throughout his stay and was flexible, kind, and easy to communicate with. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“My experience with Patrice showed me that she genuinely loves dogs. She doesn’t just care for them; she truly cares about their well-being and understands their needs, especially when they’re hurting or vulnerable. I had an emergency and I reached out to several Rover sitters, but many declined because of the situation of my dog needing extra care and my request was a last minute. I reached out to several Rover sitters, but many declined because of my dog situation and last minute. I completely understood Patrice was very concerned, too. I really appreciated that she took the time to ask questions, make a call, and understand what had happened before deciding whether she could help. That was a sign to me that Patrice genuinely loves dogs and truly cares about their well-being. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting Patrice to accept my request because Mango needed extra care at that time. She took the necessary precautions and was willing to help me figure out what Mango needed while we were away. She gave me the comfort and peace of mind I desperately needed during such a difficult situation. Patrice would send me pictures of Mango, and it really gave me peace of mind to see her smiling and happy with Patrice and her family. When we picked up Mango from Patrice, I was so happy to see that Mango was back to her normal self, moving around happily and excited to see us again. I can’t tell you how relieved and grateful I felt! Thank you Patrice for being so kind, patient, and understanding, not only toward me but also toward Mango. You stepped in when I really needed help, and you made it possible for us to continue with our trip without the same fear and worry I had before. Thank you again, Patrice. I’m so grateful that we found you when we needed help the most.”
“Allison was great for our Dachshund. She took her on a weeks notice and Molly stayed with her for a few days while we were traveling out of state. She kept in touch with us by text and sent us photos daily. Definitely will use Allison again and highly recommend her. Thank you again Allison!”
“We got to rebook with short notice thanks to the kindness of Leonard and his family. We appreciate the daily pictures of our content furbaby - we know he is loved and cared for with them 🫶”
“Lynn was an amazing caregiver for my Chloe. She boarded there a whole week and I was very comfortable with her care. It was wonderful to travel and not have to worry. She texted me every day with updates and sent pictures and videos. She even washed all of Chloe‘s bedding!! which is so appreciated. She has a lovely spacious home and a huge fenced in backyard.I would highly recommend Lynn and hope to use her again.”
“Erin did a great job watching my 13 year old little old dog at her house while I was on vacation. I have my vacation booked for next year and I would definitely use her again for that! Her whole family absolutely adored him and took such great care of him. Thank you so much!!”
About: I’ve had three dogs of my own over the years, so I know firsthand that dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re energetic and playful, cuddly and calm, or a little shy at first. When your dog is in my care, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. I’m attentive to their routines, love giving plenty of playtime and affection, and will treat your pup with the same care I would give my own. You can feel confident knowing your dog is getting both loving attention and dependable care while you’re away. Would love if dog(s) are getting treated regularly for fleas/ticks especially if coming into my home. I currently stay at home all day during the week so I would be able to give full attention to your pets needs. If they’re staying over the weekend I would accommodate my plans to be home while they’re in my care. Your pet(s) would have free range in my first floor apartment townhouse. There is a communal dog park that is walking distance I would take them to only if no one else was there. We have a private community that I would take them on walks throughout the day.
“Kelly and her family were absolutely wonderful with my sweet Myka. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my pup was being loved in her home as much as we love her in ours. She lives in a beautiful neighborhood with minimal traffic. Kids and families everywhere was perfect Would ABSOLUTELY use agin!!”
“Miranda & her husband took great care of our dog while we were gone for 6 days. She sent us updates which were appreciated. Recommend booking with Miranda & will use her again in the future.”

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.
96% of sitters in Kipton 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 Kipton 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 Kipton.
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 Kipton. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Kipton 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.
