“Lauren took great care of Zuri! She has a great space for dogs, handled medications/other needs well, was flexible with a last-minute booking, and sent frequent updates and pictures. We will definitely be back in the future!”
About: We know how hard it is to leave your dog with someone else, so we treat every dog like a part of our family. We rescued our Pomeranian Teddy when he was 2 years old, where he received little in the way of socializing or a normal formative experience, and now he's a happy, playful member of our family. I have always had dogs growing up. I love to be around dogs! They make me happy, and I enjoy showering them with endless attention and affection. I'm a worrywart and keep my house 100% dog safe, and keep a watchful eye on any dogs in my care at all times-Teddy is never left completely unattended in the backyard even if he's just going for a quick potty break. Our house has a larged fenced backyard with lots of room to run around and excercise. We are located ONLY 10 MINUTES from Columbus International Airport (but under the flight path at all), making our house an incredibly easy stop if you're coming back from travel! I am currently available to watch your dogs at any time. Weekdays, weekends and holidays can be a fun time for them to stay here and hang out in a quiet neighborhood with a friendly pup. We have a dog safe interior and a fenced backyard in a quiet neighborhood for your fur baby to run around in, with our sweet pomeranian to keep your dog company. We can crate your dog if you needed, or they can sleep with us in our room. Your dog will be given attention constantly and let outside every 2 to 4 hours, or as needed.
“This was our first time leaving our dog for an extended period of time. Our dog was treated like family as was evidenced by the photos each day. Definitely recommend!”
“Joe is very responsive, which is really nice. Joe happily scheduled our meet and greet, and then had Finn over recently for a night. Finn was well-taken care of and we already have a longer visit booked.”
“Megan and Jay watched our golden retriever while we were out of town. We received so many pictures and updates. Beau was very well taken care of and had a great time!! We highly recommend Megan and Jay and will definitely book with them again in the future!!”
“Halina and Theodor were the most fabulous host accommdating our super anxious dog Ginger for about a week while we were gone on a vacation. They went above and beyond in making sure Ginger was very comfortable in multiple situations and also took care of his medicines and walks. They also shared us multiple pictures every now and then to make us feel at ease while we were so far away on a vacation. We would definitely recommend Halina and Theodore to anyone who would need their services. Totally deserve the five stars and more.”
“We could not be more pleased than to have Sally as our permanent Rover Gal! She kept us updated with photos at least twice a day and was just fantastic with Herbie. He felt at home there. We will be repeat customers with Sally.”
“Alyssa took wonderful care of Cookie! We scheduled a meet-and-greet before we went out of town to make sure our dogs got along and she was used to the environment, which went extremely well. During Cookie’s stay, Alyssa kept us regularly updated with plenty of pictures. The pickup and drop off went smoothly as well. I highly recommend Alyssa for all your dog-sitting needs!”
“Marena was a fantastic sitter for my dog Max! She gave me frequent updates and had no issues with the provided instructions for his care. Marena took such great care of Max, I don’t think he wanted to leave when we picked him up :) I will definitely have her watch Max again in the future.”
“Ashliegh is wonderful and Sloopy didn't want to come home with us! We received photos and updates during our trip and could tell that Sloopy was having a ball. She will be back!”
“Zach and his wife treated our pups like their own! We were regularly updated with videos and pictures, so we never had to wonder how they were. Can’t recommend them enough.”
“I got pictures of Charlie while I was away and Will and Bibiana were incredibly flexible and easy to communicate with. I was so glad to have Charlie in a home and with dog people who took great care of him.”
“Emily was wonderful. My doodle has some anxiety about new places. From the pictures Emily sent she looked completely relaxed and comfortable! I appreciate the communication throughout the time we were gone.”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing with Osa, I went from feeling scared of leaving Osa to feeling comfortable Osa was taken care of. Her response time was almost instant for the entirety of Osa's stay, and she was so flexible when I needed to add pick up and drop off for unexpected events! Taylor, thank you so much for making this one less thing for me to worry about during my travel!”
“This was our second time with Michelle and Nick, they continue to treat Samson like he’s one of their own! We’ll continue to use them and would highly recommend them too”

Zachary was absolutely amazing with Coco! From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease. He provided consistent updates, photos, and made sure we knew Coco was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches, and Coco came back happy and relaxed. Communication was great, and everything was handled professionally. Highly recommend Zachary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitteR

The average cost for Dog Boarding in New Albany on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 957 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across New Albany. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of New Albany sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which New Albany landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their New Albany 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 New Albany.
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 New Albany 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.
