“Tina is amazing! She truly cares for your family pets like they’re hers. I love her picture updates letting us know how our baby girl is doing. She’s flexible with her schedules and quick to respond to requests or questions. We’ve used her for both daycare and boarding and will continue. Thanks to Tina my husband and I were able to go away on vacation and not have to worry about whether she was happy or not.”

“I have 2 small, senior dogs with special diets and medicines three times daily. One can have a "grumpy old man" attitude. They had not stayed with anyone but family & friends in the 2 & 4 years I've had them. Rumi and her husband were absolutely wonderful with them (and with me ☺️)! They were very flexible with me when my drop off schedule kept changing. She sent me pictures, videos, updates. The dogs always looked content. She advised me at pick up of a lump they felt on one dog. I highly recommend and will be using again.”

“5+ stars! CB is a senior dog set in his ways. He lives in single person home & is very protective. As a pup, he was abused by males and later attached by a dog. Arya, CB & I had a meet & greet to discuss CB's shortcomings: 1) stiff hind quarters, 2) medication, 3) probable anti social behavior, etc. Even though CB does not respond well to males, they bonded quickly. Special accommodations were made for CB's lack of social skills. He was given 5-6 individual walks daily. I received daily pics, videos, & commentaries. Arya also reached out to me after CB's stay. CB enjoyed his stay & is more energetic. I highly recommend Arya!”

“From the time we dropped off our pup, we shown that she would be in great care. Gary and Heather provided consistent updates and photos as promised. We were told that our pup would be “cared for like one of our own” and our experience proved that. They took our pup to the dog park and the dog beach. As a high energy pup, we could tell she was thoroughly engaged judging by how tired she was when she returned home. We would highly recommend Gary and Heather to give you a peace of mind and your pup a loving home away from home.”

We are very pleased with the care Gracie and Keylor gave to our Molly dog while we were away. They sent us pictures and updates about how she was getting along. They have a nice fenced in backyard. They are very kind and we would definitely leave our fur baby with them next time we need care for Molly.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Mount Vernon on Rover is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $67 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 175 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mount Vernon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

97% of sitters in Mount Vernon 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 Mount Vernon 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 Mount Vernon.

<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 Mount Vernon 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.
