Lauren and her family were wonderful with our two dogs. She was very communicative and kept us updated while we were on vacation. We enjoyed all the photos with the updates. I especially appreciate the care she took when their arthritis was acting up. We felt comfortable with the dogs in her care and their additional medical needs (medication).

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.

John and Shannon were wonderful with our dog Oslo. You can tell this family really loves dogs. We got sweet updates throughout our trip. Oslo was happy to see us at the end but we think he would have been happy to stay with his new family - ha! I was particularly struck by their flexibility and resourcefulness when our flight was canceled coming home from our trip. They were gracious, flexible and communicative.

AMAZING dog sitter!!! Marlyn did an ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE job with my dog who is high anxiety, high maintenance, gets stressed very easily, and has a very difficult time with humans. I was so grateful that despite my dog having a difficult temperament, she handled him expertly and I was able to have a worry free trip! She’s was extremely considerate and thorough with her care for him. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my dog and will definitely be using her for all future sittings. She’s truly an expert dog sitter, book her asap, she’s the best!!!

This was our first time using Rover. We selected Ellen because she had many positive reviews as well as multiple returning clients. We made the right choice selecting Ellen to watch our fur babies. She is extremely accommodating and understanding. Our 2 pups have a number of quirks, but Ellen worked with them and gave them a home away from home. She sent multiple pictures a day and some videos, along with an update of the daily activities. We will absolutely be using Ellen if we go away and need a sitter. I cannot speak any higher of Ellen. Highly recommend! Thanks again Ellen for putting our minds at ease.

So glad that I found Angela! Leonard, my dachshund, had a ball. We are working to socialize him, and Angela provided him with opportunities to walk and play with a friend. Leonard has separation anxiety, and I am just starting to leave him with sitters. Angela is great. On pickup, I think Leonard was hoping that I was there to stay and join the fun!

I can’t recommend her enough! She watched Mowgli for 2 nights and was wonderful from start to finish. She was so communicative and sweet, sending frequent updates that gave me real piece of mind while I was away. She also went above and beyond with the thoughtful little touches — she left a sweet card and a Polaroid photo of Mowgli, which absolutely made my day. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. I’m certain Mowgli had a great time, and I’d happily book with her again!

Deanna is amazing! We are from out of state and we were looking for someone to watch our dog while we were at a wedding. Deanna took the best care of Timber and made her so comfortable! She had space to play, toys to play with, and took lots of notes for being able to take care of Timber to the best of her ability. She also sent us lots of photos and videos which I loved! Will 100% choose Deanna again if we are back in the area!

Shannelle and Ryan are the best sitters and dog caring team ever. I left my Luna for the week and not only did I get updates, Shanelle made sure to work with Luna’s occasional quirky eating habits. I didn’t worry about Luna for one minute of the time I was gone. Above and beyond is an understatement, I highly recommend!

A Day In the Life for a Rover Pup

Dog boarding with an active Star Sitter on Rover will follow the sitter’s schedule and set routine, which may look like a(n):
  • Morning neighborhood walk, such as a stroll through downtown Columbus’ Short North Arts District
  • Mid-day supervised yard time and rest
  • Afternoon enrichment outing or indoor play
  • Potty walk and nighttime winddown
For approved off-leash play, sitters may take pups to dog parks, such as Scioto Audubon Dog Park or Wheeler Memorial Dog Park. Have a dog who likes to join in on errands? Choose a sitter who lives close to dog-friendly locations like BrewDog Franklinton or Seventh Son Brewing in Italian Village.
Need more routine stability? We recommend house sitting as a service for dogs who are sensitive to change. House sitting in Columbus, OH averages $45 per night.
