“Zelda suffers from separation anxiety, but she quickly adjusted to Monica and the new surroundings and appeared to have had a relaxing and restful 3-day stay. Monica kept us well informed throughout the stay and sent photos of our happy dog.”
“Rumi took great care of my Bernese mountain dog Flynn! He was in literal paradise, she sent updates with photos, she was very easy to get ahold of and communicate with, and made his entire stay so wonderful! We will for sure be using her services again!!”
“First off I have always had my fears about boarding. I have always avoided going anywhere overnight but I had a little work trip come up and so I had to find somewhere for my Eska. I was very happy with Tiffany and her communication with me while she had my girl. I couldn't be happier with the care she gave my Eska. I now feel I can comfortably board in the future and feel she will be in good hands.”
“Katelyn and Nicholas were both welcoming and a great host for our 11 month old golden retriever. We were provided frequent updates/pictures which was comforting because this was our first trip without our dog. We will return if we ever need their services again!”
“wow, what an incredible caretaker she is, I’m from Los Angeles and had to come in town for a month and a half to shoot a movie and was terrified that I wouldn’t be able to find someone I trusted to watch my six month old puppy while I worked 12 hour days on set Kaitlyn has been nothing but and a lifesaver for me I wholeheartedly trust her with Ivy and my dog So excited and happy every time I go to drop her off with Kaitlyn and so happy and well taken care of every time I pick her up!! Thank you so much Kaitlyn for being such an amazing animal lover, 10 out of 10”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and a firm believer of caring for someone’s baby as if they were my own! I have anxiety leaving my babies for work or vacations and will always be understanding and empathetic to you and your babies during that time! I do work a normal 9-5 throughout the week, as a STNA doing home health, but I have Thursdays and Sundays off and available for all day help you may need! I’m also available for sitting overnight or multiple nights in your home or mine! I do have 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own but my doggos are big puppy lovers and love play dates! As an STNA, I am in people’s homes all day everyday and just as I’ve been trusted the last four years with loved ones in the form of the elderly I take care of, I can be trusted with your loved ones in the form of fur babies 🫶🏼 I have a fenced in yard and two playful doggos always looking for play dates! As well as a puppy pool and plenty of toys that my doggos love to share! In your home, I love a good list of your pups routine and will stick to it to keep them happy and comfortable!

“We traveled from Pittsburgh to Marion for a family wedding and needed someone to watch our dog Paddington during the ceremony and reception, and Jennifer was wonderful! We got to meet her adorable Bulldog, Diesel, which was a great bonus. Jennifer's communication was excellent throughout, keeping us updated and sharing photos so we could fully enjoy the celebration without worry. We would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter!”

About: I’ve taken care of and loved dogs since I was 13. My family had an Australian Blue Heeler, Irish Wolfhound, Rhodesian Ridgeback, and Boxers. I currently have two Bernese Mountain Dogs who are the loves of my life! I have experience with dogs as small as Chihuahuas and large as my Berners. I spend a lot of time playing, training, and walking/hiking with the dogs I care for. I like to keep them engaged! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which gives me the ability to care for and play with my own dogs and your dogs. Dogs have improved my life immensely, and I try to repay the unconditional love by providing them with an awesome day, every day. I have a fenced in yard and two animal loving Bernese Mountain Dogs to keep your family happy and engaged. Juli is 4 years old and incredibly gentle with all living things. Cooper is 9 months old and definitely a big puppy. I also have room dividers/doggy gates if your pup needs space or time alone. We love going on walks and taking hikes in the surrounding parks, but I’m also intentional about taking time to calm down and relax (when needed)! I understand the importance of limiting exercise for puppies, especially growing large breed dogs, as well as making sure temperaments and play styles match with playmates!

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 Lexington 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 Lexington.
<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 Lexington 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.
