“Kristin was very flexible with drop off and pick up, took very good care of my fur babies sent pictures without having to ask! Would recommend to a friend she was very nice and home was very clean! Didn’t have to worry about my fur babies on vacation!”
“Janelle was a great dog sitter for our two pups. She sent me pictures and videos every day so I never had to wonder how my dogs were doing. She has four dogs so my dogs got plenty of playtime. I highly recommend Janelle. I look forward to using her again in the future. Thank You!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. Growing up my family had a golden retriever, Yorkshire terrier and beagle lab mix. I recently lost my 17 year old cava-poo. I’m currently working part time and have Mondays and Fridays available to help you out any way I can. Weekends are also flexible for your needs. I have a fenced in backyard to keep your dog safe. I also have a large crate inside if needed. My cat is super friendly and gets along with all pets.
“Celene was fantastic! She’s easy going and flexible with the pick up and drop off. She loves dogs and took such great care of Vinnie. We received multiple updates a day with photos. Vinnie got along with Penny really well. Would recommend and use her again!”
“Rachel was great! We went on a five day cruise and she left daily comments and photos which put us at ease leaving our fur baby for the first time. I think Nutmeg really enjoyed Rachel's family, her dogs, and watching her chickens through the window! I wouldn't hesitate a moment to reach out and have her watch Nutmeg for a day or a week. Thank you again Rachel!!”
“I cannot say enough about the amazing care my puppy had with Elisabeth. We were very nervous to leave our 4 month d puppy, but she put all our fears to rest. She sent multiple photos, videos, and updates. Thank you again!!”
“Mary was amazing with my Sadie girl!!!!! She sent me pics and was very kind. I will use her every time I go away. I felt Sadie was safe and cared for. It made it so much easier to leave her”
“Madison sent pictures and videos of my dog while he boarded at her house. I knew he was in good care and company as she has dogs of her own, so she knows exactly how to properly take care of a dog. She has even dedicated one area to her home just for dogs who are boarding. She is very flexible and accommodating as well. If in the future I need to board my dog again, I will choose her as I feel that my dog will be in good hands.”

About: We have taken care of many dogs before in our fenced backyard in Sylvania Township. We are home full time 5 days a week and love to spoil our doggies. Days that we are at work, our doggies are let out during the day and played with. We are great with our 4 legged friends, love to walk them and are not afraid of dog hairs on our couch. We have two Golden's, a cat who is very social and one daughter. We send pictures daily! My husband and I both work full time, however my husband is in office only two days. Every other day, we are always home. The days that we both are at work, I come home to let our dogs out and play. We also have cameras in our homes where we check in on our dogs when watching others. We have two loving and playful doggies in our home. We also have one cat who is very comfortable around dogs. Our backyard is fenced and we live in a safe neighborhood.
About: I provide personalized pet care for dogs and cats of all ages — from high-energy pups who need plenty of walks and playtime to senior pets who appreciate slow strolls and calm companionship. My services include drop-in visits, walks, and overnight boarding, each tailored to your pet’s unique needs, habits, and comfort level. I believe great pet care is built on trust- which means reliable communication, prompt updates, and lots of adorable photos. You’ll always know how your pet is doing while you’re away! I’m known for being responsive and detail oriented, with a strong reputation for consistent five star experiences. ⭐ Senior pets hold a special place in my heart, but I truly love them all- from first wags to grey muzzles. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pets, so I care for them as if they were my own. Whether you need daily walks, weekend boarding, or gentle senior support, I’ll make sure your pet’s tail (or purr) tells you how loved they are when you return. 🐾 Pet care is my full time focus. My flexible schedule means I can offer consistent walks, drop ins, and overnight stays. I’m typically most available Sunday through Wednesday, but I’m happy to adjust if your travel or work week shifts. Reliability and adaptability are my top priorities! I have extensive experience with dogs who require medication, rescues who need patience, and even cats with unique routines (I’ve even trained a few to do tricks!). My home is also pet-friendly, safe, and full of positive energy. Pets in my care get attention, enrichment, and affection- never just supervision!
“Kristie was amazing with our puppies!!! She had them for the weekend while we were away. Taking on our two rambunctious pups isn’t easy and she was so attentive, patient and affectionate with them! We were able to have a family vacation with zero worries. We will absolutely use Kristie again! If you need someone who will treat your pet like family while you’re away, definitely see if Kristie is available!!”
About: Dogs are my favorite friends. I take care of them just like they are mine. i love giving them cuddles, kisses and yummy cold treats. Your loved ones will have the best time when they are with me. Frequent walking, playtime, and safety are my top priority when taking care of them. Of course, cuddles, food and comfy blankets/beds too! I enjoy training dogs with any kind of cool tricks. I’m currently working at home. I usually walk 3x during the day. Early morning, mid day and evening. Your furry friends will join me on my walks and have 30 mins individual play time x 2 during the day and before bed time. I have a fenced yard and a small friendly dog that will keep your dog active at all times. Water will always be filled up for them to sip on. Sunroom to keep them comfortable at all times when weather permits. When the weather gets too hot/cold, your furry bestie are going to warm up/cool off/play/rest in the basement. they are free to roam inside the house.
“Barb was not only accommodating to my last minute needs but she kept me posted daily with photos (per my request) and brief texts letting me know my dog was adjusting to an unfamiliar place. Her house was very dog friendly and having a fenced in yard and neighborhood for walks was perfect for my senior dog. This was my first experience leaving my dog with anyone outside of family and she made the process as comfortable as possible. I will be using her services in the future if I find myself in need, and have already recommended her to friends and family. Thanks again for everything, Barb!”
“Bobbie and her family were great! Their fenced in yard was perfect for my high-energy dog, and their dog Korra and my dog got along great. It’s nice to not worry about my boy when I’m out of town.”
“Best sitter ever goes above and beyond my puppy loves his company and environment. He will send daily updates and pictures/videos of your dog and walks them. Will always use his services”

I will always be extremely grateful with Kristal for taking excellent care of Pandita. Kristal is a really sweet and kind lady. She kept me updated all the time! She sended me pictures, videos, feed her, played with her, and took her to walks. Even gave me a little bed for Pandita because she loved it so much. I would totally choose her again and trust her blindly as my dog caregiver. Thank you so much Kristal!
Kristal took very good care of our 3 pups while on a cruise. She was flexible with our schedule when we decided to drive to Florida instead of fly which caused us to need to extend our booking which she did without hesitation.Even though Kristal knew that I wouldn’t be reachable during our 7 day cruise she still made sure to send updated & pictures for me to see once I was back online. Of course our pups were very happy to see us, they went right back to their normal behavior without missing a beat which tells me they were treated well while in Kristal’s care. We would deff recommend her to others & will use her in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Northwood on Rover is $29.97 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 189 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Northwood. About 94% of Northwood sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
