“Josie had an excellent stay with Aparajita. I had received photo/video updates consistently each day during Josie’s stay. It was basically doggy vacation as there were other doggy friends for Josie to play with, along with plenty of yard space and she even got the splash pad out after finding out that Josie loves water. Aparajita was kind enough to give Josie a bath and wash the towels we sent along with her. Will definitely be booking again and I highly recommend booking with Aparajita!”
“Nicole and her family were amazing with our dog, Maverick. He has some separation anxiety and he did so well in their care. They will be our go-to dog sitters from this point forward.”
“Dariana was an excellent sitter for Luna. She was responsive, flexible, and provided regular updates. Luna very clearly was happy and comfortable during her stay. I would 100% recommend her! 😊”
“Debbie was wonderful. I do not crate my dog and did not want to leave him with someone who insisted on crating. Debbie only had my dog and I was able to have an overnight trip without worry. She kept me informed of how it was all going. Her and her husband were lovely. I highly recommend her and will absolutely use her services in the future”
“She took such good care of our dog Buddy. Very thorough and conscientious with their diet medications and especially dogs who are older. We would definitely use her again.”
“Natasa was very professional and made us feel very comfortable leaving our puppy for the first time. We received daily updates with pictures and videos which really was nice to see. Natasa and her family showed our pup lots of love and care while we were gone and we are extremely appreciative of that! Our pup lives going on walks and playing in their spacious backyard. Thank you Natasa!”
“Kathleen was wonderful with our Bailey! She kept us updated by messages and photos. Bailey certainly was comfortable while we were gone! We look forward to another stay in the future, thank you so much!”
“Paula and Thom did a wonderful job taking care of Chloe! You can definitely tell they are dog lovers. They asked great questions ahead of time and you can tell they wanted to do things to make her feel at home there. Thanks, Paula & Thom!”
“John did a great job with our dog Candy. He even picked up on a thing I forgot to tell him which was that our dog won’t eat or drink unless her bowls are on carpet. I had left her bowls on tile and he saw that she was eyeballing them. He moved them To the carpet and she ate and drank. I love that he was that in tune with her.”
“Lerae is absolutely amazing!! She is very responsive and she really took great care of maya while I was away. Maya loved her stay. I highly highly recommend Lerae- she is the best!!!”
“Dawn was great. My Lola is a grumpy old lady and Dawn did a great job with her. She communicated with me everyday, and made me feel comfortable being away from her.”
“Kelsey was fantastic. She watched our 2 year old border collie mix, Mila, for 4 days and took great care of her. She sent daily pics and videos and was super communicative so we knew Mila was well cared for. Mila enjoyed socializing and playing with Kelsey's dogs, two of whom are also border collies. Kelsey does agility training with her own dogs and has a nice fenced in yard for the dogs to play in. We will definitely use Kelsey for any future dog boarding needs!”
“Kimberly and her family took great care of my cat Casper while I was out of town for 10 days. I was nervous because it was his first time staying with a sitter, but Kimberly sent daily pictures and updates and really got to know him! I will be rebooking with her again for sure.”
“Kim was amazing with Ollie! She sent photos and updates throughout the stay, so we always knew he was happy and taken care of. It made being away so much easier knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely cares about your pup.”
“Chris took great care of our dog. He sent terrific photos each day and gave a report on how she was getting along. She went on walks and played with his daughters. We would be happy to use Chris again. Highly recommend him.”
“Barbara took great care of our dogs while we were on vacation. Daily updates with pictures and video were awesome. Our dogs were cared for and loved as if they were part of her family. Will definitely use Barbara again when we travel!”

Natasa was amazing. She gave me regular updates and always responded to my questions. Most of all, she was patient, kind, and loving with my senior fur baby. She administered medications, including eye drops and followed our normal feeding schedule. Her care of my dog was excellent!

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 Murdock 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 Murdock.
<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 Murdock 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.
