“Summer was amazing! She was accommodating and understanding when we issues with dropoff and pickup. Lucky had a wonderful time with her and her family. Will definitely have her again as a sitter”

“Deanna provided such a great experience for my fur baby. She was very attentive to her and made her feel right at home. Deanna kept me informed of her progress and provided me with pictures and videos throughout her stay. Deanna’s dogs are very social and well behaved and welcomed my dog into their little pack. I could tell my Sofee had the time of her life. I would definitely rebook with Deanna.”

“Once again, Ashley did a wonderful job boarding our dog. I am very disappointed to hear that she will not be able to offer boarding in the future at her new apartment due to policy.”

“Michelle and Justin were great! They kept me up to date with pictures of Bennie throughout his stay! Bennie usually doesn’t eat well when in an unfamiliar place but he must have been so comfortable he had no issues this time!”

“Jessica was absolutely amazing. She made me feel completely comfortable leaving my baby boy with her and sent so many cute pictures along the way. Highly recommended.”
“John and Shannon were absolutely wonderful with our pup, Leo! From the moment we dropped him off, they kept us updated with sweet pictures, thoughtful messages, and stories from his walks. It was so clear he was happy, loved, and well cared for, we couldn’t have asked for kinder, more attentive sitters. Highly recommend! Leo can’t wait to come back!”

“Mary was an excellent host. Her two dogs Ellie and Fufu were so welcoming and Laika meshed in with ease. Cannot recommend more highly and I looked forward to booking again and again.”

“My boarding experience with Lauren has been great. I felt really comfortable knowing she was well cared for during my extended trip away. Lauren is easy to communicate with and very responsive. We also do daycare with her and my Yorkie enjoys going back, which says a lot since she’s usually pretty anxious in environments outside of the house. Lauren is very kind and treats my little one like her own, and I really appreciate the care she gives her. We’ve had a great experience overall.”

“I highly recommend Karl! I've used him multiple times over the years, and again I recently left my doberman with him for 3 nights. He is very communicative, caring and reliable. I feel very comfortable leaving my dobi-girl with him at his beautiful dog-friendly place in Clintonville.”

“Liliana did an amazing job taking care of our 9 year old dog! She kept us updated with how Molly was doing and sent us daily photos. We will definitely be booking again with her in the future!”


“Jennifer is absolutely AMAZING! While I was cruising last week for my birthday, she took incredible care of my dog Cash, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept me updated with photos and videos, which gave me total peace of mind and showed just how much fun Cash was having. It truly felt like Cash became part of her family — a real home away from home. They played games, spent quality time together, and it was obvious he was loved and well cared for every single day. I’m so grateful to Jen and her family for their warmth, hospitality, and genuine care. Jennifer goes above and beyond to meet (and exceed!) expectations. She’s fantastic with animals, attentive, and incredibly kind. For any dog sitting, boarding, or pet care needs, I highly recommend Jen without hesitation. She is absolutely the best! 🐾💙”

“For the first time ever, I had to leave my dog son for more than a day and I was definitely very uncertain on this whole you know . I couldn’t have asked for a better family to watch over my best friend and care for him like they did. Had me at ease while I was gone the whole time if you’re looking for the same reassurance, I was looking no further!”


“Brian was so great with our pup. He is shy of new humans at first, but Brian was patient and he warmed up to him. And had a blast playing with Brian’s dog Mario. I felt completely comfortable knowing that Avocado was in such great hands and having so much fun.”

“Halina and Theodor took such good care of our dog while we were away for a couple weeks. Our dog was very happy and comfortable being there. I would highly recommend choosing them to watch your pet. We will definitely reach out to them again the next time our dog needs a sitter.”

About: Located in Westerville, OH my wife and I have a large fenced in backyard and screened in patio. I work from home full-time. We also have a 2 year old long-haired mini dachsund, Rocco, who loves to play with other dogs (when he’s not on house security duty). He loves to sniff around the backyard and play fetch for as long as possible and would love a friend to join him. Rocco has consistently attended daycare here in Columbus and is accustomed to dogs of all sizes. My wife and I both grew up with hunting chocolate labs so we are experienced with handling dogs of all sizes. We live next to two large walking paths and have a nice quiet neighborhood where we love to take our dog. We currently have a 2 year old mini dachsund so we already have a nice dog routine between my wife and I! We make sure to have plenty of water available on the main floor, especially during summer months. I take regular breaks throughout my work from home day to toss the ball in the backyard! Pets that stay at our house will have full access to inside, screened in patio and our large fenced in backyard! I work from home full-time so I am with the dogs all day. Dogs can’t fit through the fenced in yard so no worries about escape artists.
“Jamie is unbelievable in EVERY way. Took such great care of our baby boy while we were gone for Thanksgiving. Even took him in on Thanksgiving Day! She also did a wonderful job introducing him to the other dogs that were staying with her and our pup ended up having a wonderful time. She kept us updated constantly and was very thorough in her updates. Jamie is the best !!!!”

“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.”

“Ellen did such an amazing job with my senior rescue girl! She has some health issues and is a little shy, so I'm always worried about leaving her for the weekend with someone new, but I could tell she felt comfortable with Ellen right away. Communication was great—Ellen sent photos and updates and made me feel a LOT less guilty about leaving her. I honestly could not have had a better experience, which is saying something coming from a slightly neurotic mom of a special needs dog :) I'll definitely be booking Ellen again in the future!”
“Alex was the first host I used on Rover. I was a bit worried about using this app, but Alex made my first experience amazing! She is so friendly and truly has a heart for animals. I have already booked with her a few times since and my doggo loves to stay with her. She is very flexible and has even dropped my dog back off to me. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Alex for taking such good care of Amani!”

I had a great experience with Taylor watching my dog, George. She is friendly, communicative, and flexible! George stayed with her for close to 2 weeks while I was traveling, and she really allowed me to feel relaxed and like he was in great hands while I was away. I would recommend Taylor to anyone!

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

Jason was awesome. He kept me updated and sent pics everyday, and it looked like Bender was having a great time! Jason was so accommodating with Bender’s hip and back issues; he put runners out over the hardwood and was careful to make sure Bender didn’t overdo it and had help getting around. He’s probably been the best sitter we’ve had on here.
