Pam was so good to my doggie, I think he may have been disappointed to leave!!! I would highly recommend her to anyone. She was very attentive to details and was very loving and comforting with him!

Kassi recently watched our dogs while we went to a family wedding in Italy. Since we were going to be gone longer than a regular vacation, I searched around to find the best fit for our dogs. Kassi was AMAZING! She treated our dogs like they were her own. She took them for walks and played with them in her fenced in yard. She sent plenty of pictures and the dogs were very spoiled! I will definitely be booking Kassi again!

Bre was a great sitter for Baggy! He felt comfortable exploring her home far quicker than usual. Bre was very responsive and excited making me feel great about where I had left my guy. She sent photos and was attentive to whatever needed to be done. 10/10 would recommend for any of your pet watching needs!

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!

Betsy is the best! My spoiled dog was right at home with her. Our dog is a big baby and she was well taken care of. I will use Betsy again and again and recommend her! Betsy is very thoughtful and asked questions to get to know my dog that I didn’t think of myself.

Yasmin and Syed are amazing. They treated our dog like she was their own. They played with her, followed all feeding and treat instructions to a T, and just generally spoiled her. Yasmin was easy to communicate with, and sent updates with pictures throughout the stay. She is our first choice from now on.

They were AMAZING They gave my little bear so much love and attention and they treated him as if he was their own- They even made sure I had updates and pictures constantly on my trip which meant the world to me— Also had the option to have grooming done while they had him, so cool. Will absolutely book with them again— Thankyou so much :) ✨

Home environments create less stress for dogs in unfamiliar surroundings. The cost of dog boarding in Columbus, OH ranges from $42 to $55 per night.

  • Boarding + daycare: 515 sitters have daycare for playful pups
  • Grooming & bathing: 174 sitters provide basic grooming for long stays

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.
