“After we had a meet and greet Lelo was excited to come back and stay for the week. Bridget and her family made Lelo feel at home and loved. Bridget has a large room, where the dogs are free to play. Plenty of water and toys. Lelo can't wait to come back and hang out with her boys.”


“I had the pleasure of working with Sharon, and I couldn't be more impressed with her kindness, efficiency, and genuine love for animals. She took excellent care of my dog for the day, ensuring he was happy, comfortable, and well-attended to. What truly stood out to me was her attentiveness and calm demeanor, which made the entire experience stress-free. She is clearly experienced, as evidenced by how well she handles her own dogs—a Yorkie and a Shepherd—both of whom are incredibly well-behaved and sweet. If you're looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter, Sharon is absolutely the person to trust. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of quality care for their furry friends!”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my Bernedoodle, Sydney, received while staying with David and his family during our week-long vacation. From our initial meeting, it was clear that David genuinely loves dogs and takes his responsibility as a pet sitter seriously. He carefully ensures that the dogs in his care are a good match in temperament, creating a comfortable and safe environment for everyone. Throughout Sydney’s stay, David kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me tremendous peace of mind while we were away. Knowing Sydney was happy, comfortable, and well cared for made it easy to relax and enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend David and would happily book with him again in the future.”

“I would give more stars if I could! Keith and Wendalyn took loving care of my darling Penny as if she were their own dog. Lots of fun walka, cuddle time, time outside. They also made sure Penny adhered to her somewhat strict diet but also got to enjoy some treats. Hoping to rebook with them for my next out-of-town trip!”

“6 STARS!!!! So responsive with updates and pictures twice a day. My dogs were allowed to be comfortable roaming the house with no kennel… just like at home. I will definitely use them again when we return to Cedar Point. The dogs had a mini vacation with friendly other dogs. Extremely satisfied!!! Thank u for taking such wonderful care of my pups!”

About: I have a 5-year-old chocolate Lab boy and a 4-year-old Maine Coon boy. They’re best buddies, super friendly, and always happy to make new friends! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was very young age. I work from home Monday through Friday with a flexible schedule. My cat and dog are best friends, they’re very good boys and always welcoming others. Fenced yard with 0.6 acer backyard, so the dog friend can run and play outside.

“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.”

“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.”

“Hailey and Potato were wonderful hosts to our dogs, Marley and Luna. Luna is a bit shy and Luna was able to open uo and play with Potato. Hailey sent just enough photos and updates throughout the visit and was very accommodating with the scheduling. The girls came back extremely happy and had a wonderful time with their stay with Hailey. Her yard is perfect and she is very efficient with drop off and pickups. I would definitely have our girls stay with Hailey again!”

“We have used Marcie multiple times now. We never have to worry with her. She takes wonderful care of our dog and spoils him like he is her own. She is super flexible with time last minute changes. We were gone on our dog’s birthday and she sent us pics of him getting special birthday dog treats! Can’t say enough good things!”

“Michael has been so wonderful with our Tiny Tim. Tiny loves going over to Michael’s house when we have something going on for the day. We will always use Michael as long as he still in the business.”

“Megan was a lifesaver for a last minute watch due to my pup who needed a calm place to rest her healing leg while I traveled for work. She was extremely flexible and understanding. She kept me posted on my pup each day, sent pictures of her and took extra care to try to keep her calm. Although they didn’t get to play and go on adventurous walks, Piper was happy. I would highly recommend!”

“Madison was just OUTSTANDING!! Given last minute notice she took in our 5 month old “Zumi” as we were transitioning moving from Hawai’i to Ohio. Madison sent daily pics of Zumi and took such great care of her!! Will recommend her to anyone and if needs be we’ll definitely be requesting her for any or future dog sitting!! Thank you again Madison!!!”


“I highly recommend Derek to watch your dog while you are away! He took great care of my precious dog Lola! He made sure she ate well, exercised a lot and felt comfortable in his home. Derek provided daily photos and videos to me that calmed my fears of leaving her and being so far away. His dogs are very friendly and welcomed Lola into their environment. I really think she enjoyed her vacation more than me and had such a good time! She has been sleeping the next day away much like I feeling like doing!”

“Cris displayed remarkable understanding and flexibility. He exceeded our expectations, very accommodating, going the extra mile in providing exceptional care. He consistently kept us informed and did an excellent job looking after our dog. When we came back, our dog appeared well cared for and genuinely happy. Both Cris and his wife treated our dog with upmost kindness and care. If you're looking for someone to take care of your fur baby, I strongly recommend Cris, he's truly exceptional.”

“Ron really cares about the dogs he takes care of. I have never felt better about leaving my dog with anyone. The amount of love and care and attention Bert received is well worth the daily/nightly rate. I thoroughly appreciate him opening his home and devoting so much time taking Bert on hikes. I was nervous about potential behavior issues arising from my dog and his separation anxiety issues but all of my fears were unfounded- Ron, his wife and his two girls- Maggie and Isolde became Bert's second family for the week and I'm sure Bert can't wait to see them all again!”

About: I got my first puppy for my 10th birthday. She was entirely my responsibility. I fed, bathed, and trained her. She was a huge white shepherd and the sweetest thing on paws I still miss her. Since then, I’ve had many, many dogs and cats through the years. I’ve been through dog training school several times. I currently have three full-sized Goldendoodles who are reasonably well trained, although they are still way too friendly. I’m retired and available about any day except Sunday afternoons: noon church service. I get my groceries delivered, so I’m here most of the time. I try to walk one of mine every day, weather permitting. I would walk your pup before I walk mine. I also have a fenced-in back yard where the dog run and play. My house is dog friendly, and I’m not overly concerned with dirt. I also have the world’s best vacuum cleaner to deal with it and all the hair. lol I have a large fenced-in back yard with river rock instead of grass, so mud is not a problem. My three friendly Doodles love racing around, especially in the snow, and they would love to add your dog to the fun. At the end of the day, we all go upstairs and sleep in my room with a baby-gate blocking the door, so there is no house roaming overnight. I also have room for crates if that’s what your dog needs to feel comfortable. I have one cat who is comfortable around dogs and knows where to hide if necessary. Please have your dog be familiar with cats or at least won’t attack her if she tries to make friends. I can accommodate special diets and know how to use a pill gun for medications.
About: I have a miniature schnauzer who I trained and raised from a puppy. I’m looking to gain more experience with all kinds of dogs. I am very interested in fostering later in life and I am missing my pup while I’m away at school. I know life can be hectic so I am excited to help anyone out a little and meet some new pets in my free time! I am in school to earn my associates. This fall I have most of my classes at night. My only busy day is Saturday, where I have a class from 10a-2p, so for the most part, I am available and looking to fill that time with some furry friends! Please feel free to reach out!! I know every pet is different and needs different things. I am very flexible and happy to cater to different situations as they come. I enjoy walking and exercising so I am happy to do long and short walks, parks and more. I have an anxious dog myself so I understand some pets need a little space when meeting new people and new environments. I’m looking to give your pets the best experiences possible and listen to any instructions you may have for them.

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 Mitiwanga 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 Mitiwanga 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 Mitiwanga.
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 Mitiwanga 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.
