“Stephanie was amazing with our not so easy pups. She made our daycation relaxing and stress free! We got pictures and updates all day long. Would highly recommend!”
“Nicole made the whole boarding process so easy. Dixie was comfortable and relaxed (Nicole updated us regularly with photos) which in turn helped us relax and enjoy our time away. We 100% recommend Nicole R!!”
“Kaitlyn did an amazing job caring for our husky, Rocco. We were nervous to leave our baby as this was the first time we ever boarded him but she sent me lots of pictures and he looked like he was having a blast with the other dogs and even had a couple husky friends!! She even de shedded him and bathed him for us, he looks amazing and was wagging his tail leaving there. We will be using her again in the future :)”
“Jalaina did a great job looking after my dog Baxter. Typically, I board him with a kennel, but he hates being in a cage and restricted. Jalaina was all I could have hoped for. She sent numerous pictures of Baxter that allowed me to have peace of mind when I needed a last minute sitter and a “homey” environment for Baxter. He warmed up to her immediately and even got comfy on her couch. Also, she walked him daily and when I picked him up he wasn’t anxious as he has been in kennel environments. I almost forgot to mention that she watched my Mom’s dog as well in the same weekend. We wanted to board them together because they are with each other most days. I can’t say enough about Jalaina and her sweet and gentle spirit which is why I think both dogs had such an enjoyable stay and I will not hesitate to book her again.”

“Highly recommend 10/10. Chelsea made the experience of leaving our Cats with a sitter seamless and amazing. She went over and beyond to ensure that the animals were comfortable while making sure that we were also comfortable. If you are looking for a sitter, I suggest Chelsea!”
“Allison and her family were great with my dog! They sent lots of photos and gave updates on how she was doing. And Willow made friends with their dog who was very well mannered!!”
“I absolutely am so grateful I found grace. We were looking a little late around the holidays but thankfully she was able to take my dog in. I was soooooo nervous cause my dog doesn't really get along with other dogs but grace ease her into ot and she eventually ended up playing with some of the dogs???? so worth the drive to her place will definitely use her again!”
“We had great experience with Jena and Nick. Dexter received lots of love, personal attention, playtime, daily walks. Their pet Sebastian was a very nice dog and became great buddy of Dexter in a short time. They have a very nice and clean fenced backyard too. Dexter really enjoyed his time with Jena, Nick and Sebastian… We really appreciate their effort in making sure Dexter felt it at home…Thank you Jane, Nick and Sebastian for being so lovely to Dexter.”
“Nick was available at the last minute and took very good care of my picky and quirky dog. Nick sent pictures and messages to let me know how Chewy was doing. I would definitely use Nick again!”
About: I’ve had a fur companion all of my life! I’ve successfully raised and trained five dogs from puppies and I have experience with rescue pups who may not feel entirely comfortable in their new environment. I’ve experienced small and large breeds alike, with my current pup being a King Cavalier Spaniel. Goose’s cousins who we see weekly are two Golden retrievers and one rescue mix. I’m able to be flexible or rigid when it comes to your pets schedule, and am knowledgeable in special diets, fresh pet food, administering meds if needed. I have the luxury of working from home and creating my own schedule which makes my days very flexible! I currently can accept pets for boarding, play dates or walks Sunday through Thursday, 9:30am to 10pm. My dog is allowed to be on all furniture and sleep in the bed and your pet would be permitted to as well if that is your preference! Goose and I take several walks a day and love to take day trips to various area dog parks and hiking trails or enjoy a lazy afternoon on the couch.
“Second time my kitty has stayed with Katherine and will most definitely be going back! She gives updates and sends pictures everyday. A wonderful sitter highly recommended!!!!”
About: When you choose me to care for your pets, you are choosing a compassionate, dependable, and attentive caregiver who treats every animal with the same love, respect, and devotion as if they were my own. I understand that pets are cherished members of your family, which is why I prioritize their safety, comfort, and unique routines—whether that means sticking to strict feeding schedules, administering medications with care, or giving extra play, exercise, and snuggles. Beyond keeping your companion happy and calm in their familiar environment, I ensure total peace of mind for you by maintaining clear, open communication and sending frequent updates with photos. Reliable, thorough, and genuinely passionate about animal well-being, I am dedicated to providing a stress-free experience for both you and your beloved pets while you are away. I currently work from home and have a 2.5 old male golden retriever. Your dog will have attentive care with me working from home and a bonus play mate! As a dedicated dog sitter, my highest priority is providing your pup with the same warmth, devotion, and structure they experience at home. I approach every pet in my care with deep empathy and genuine affection, quickly building a calm, trusting bond that helps them feel safe and loved while you're away. You can rest easy knowing I am entirely reliable and communicative, keeping you closely updated so you never have to wonder how your companion is doing. From strictly maintaining their feeding schedules and medication times to noticing subtle shifts in their mood or energy, my sharp attention to detail ensures your dog’s specific routine, comfort, and safety are met without compromise.
“Brittany was absolutely wonderful, I have never left my dog with anyone before so I was very nervous, but from the first time I talked to her until the moment I picked my dog up, I knew how much she genuinely loves animals and takes excellent care of them. Communication was wonderful the entire time, she sent me daily updates of how my dog was doing, what he did that day, along with daily pictures. She gave my dog plenty of care, attention, and affection. When I picked him up I knew he was very well cared for the whole time. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would definitely book with Brittany again and recommend her highly to anyone!”
“Katie and her family welcomed my little dog into their family as if he always belonged there. I was so happy he was getting so much care and attention! Katie sent me pictures of his daily adventures and that helped me relax, knowing he was having a good time. Awesome job!”
About: Hello! I’m Vee. I’ve worked with pets for most of my life and have had a deep respect for animals as far back as I could remember. I used to cry over the dead birds our barn cat would kill as a child. I have had cats, dogs, rabbits, and have even helped rehab two baby squirrels. Each animal is different and deserves the care they need to feel cherished. I’m currently in grad school for social work so want to make the most of my free time by doing what I love: working with animals. Right now my availability is pretty open and I have the flexibility to work around your schedule. :) Your furry family members will be treated with the utmost care during their stay. I want them to feel as relaxed and stress free as possible but I know some new environments can be a little scary. I always use a sound machine at night with soothing music to ease any anxiety (and usually lots of pets and treats too!). My preference is that dogs are crated at night to help ease anxiety (and to prevent any night time shenanigans) but if your dog is unfamiliar with a crate that’s no problem. I can try working with them on crate training with lots of positive reinforcement or I can set up a comfy spot for them in our guest bedroom. Please please please let me know if your pet has any issues with potty training. I will 100% adjust to their needs and take them out as often as necessary to avoid any accidents. :)
“So happy I went on to Rover to look for a sitter for Tuxedo. We were very lucky to find Jeannine. We were able to go on vacation and not be stressed worrying about our pup. Thank you again Jeannine.”
“Joe is great! He arranged our meet and greet so that Dude would get to meet the other dog he was sitting while Dude would be there.,when it was determined the dogs got along well, I decided to book Dude’s stay.,He sent me pictures and videos of Dude so that I knew Dude was okay. He made sure Dude got his medicine on time and was well fed and cared for. When I came to pick up Dude this evening, Dude didn’t want to leave with me. We would definitely have Dude stay with Joe again!”

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 New Middletown home-away-from-home, 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 Middletown.
<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 New Middletown 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 , 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 .
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.
