“Kelsey did a wonderful job watching our dog Zippy while we were away! She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. Zippy looked happy, well cared for, and clearly got lots of attention. 🐾 We really appreciated how reliable and kind Kelsey was throughout the stay. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We’d absolutely trust her with Zippy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter on Rover! 😊”
“Susan and her husband did such a great job taking care of Cheddar! Our dog was excited to see us when we picked her up, but I could tell she was well taken care of. Cheddar enjoyed playing with the other dogs, and Susan communicated well and sent lots of pictures. Would absolutely send Cheddar to Susan's again.”
“This was my first time using Rover, although many friends us it or are hosts, and this was all new to my corgi, Paisley. We did a pre-visit to make sure she would fit in with Wendy’s two small dogs and her cat, which was great. She was a little overwhelmed and anxious for the first couple of days without me being there, with 2 more dogs boarding too but Wendy handled it well (lots of communication between us, crating for some downtime) and Paisley settled in.”
“Kathy was amazing!! She’s super sweet, gentle , Extremely nurturing and kind . Kathy watched my doodle along with my sister’s doodle for 6 nights… got great pics and updates daily. Both dogs were well taken care of, and so happy !! Kathy goes the extra mile to make sure the dogs are content and happy!!! We felt confident that the dogs were in a good place and well taken care of while we were on vacation …. highly recommend!!!”
“Natalia was genuinely a fantastic doggie sitter to our fur baby! She took the time to update us and even send us photos! Our pup didn’t want to come home. Highly recommend her!”
“Tara was very responsive to my inquiries and helped me on an immediate need. She sent me updates and pictures during Legend’s stay. He was ready to get home to his Daddy, but I’m sure he enjoyed his stay with Tara and her family.”
“Samantha was exceptionally kind and generous towards my little dogs. She made sure that they received their medication‘s, were showered with love, affection, and care, even sharing a bed with them. I’m exceptionally grateful for how she was able to give them their medications every day, and my dogs looked genuinely happy to be there. She was incredibly thoughtful and punctual with communication, and went the extra mile by staging photo shoots with my dogs every day.I’m grateful to Samantha and would gladly rebook her anytime.”
“My little Maltese had a great time at Beth's place. Beth did an outstanding job in keeping him company and sharing daily photos and updates with me. My Maltese mingled well with other dogs at Beth's place. It was also very easy to coordinate drop-off and pick-up with Beth. Would definitely board my dog at Beth's place again.”
“We’re really happy with Debra and how she handled everything for our dog while we were out of town. We arranged for a meetup before the stay to ensure this would be a good match. When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”
“Great sitter - dealt with an unexpected Heath issue (UTI) w/ my dog during the latest visit and was awesome (communicated well, had a plan, and took care of the pup). Recommend!!”
“Another wonderful stay for Yote! He went for walks, received lots of attention, and observed some wildlife. Daniel & Rachel were extremely accommodating with our 1am pickup time from a midnight plane arrival!”
“Takia to the rescue, i didn’t want to leave my Dog home for the Christmas Holiday and found out that she was available. I was so happy that my furbaby was able to stay with her where he receives lots of love. I always appreciate her services 💙”
“Hayley was so easy to work with and took great care of our dog! She provided plenty of updates and pictures throughout the stay! Our dog and hers got along perfectly. We will absolutely be using Hayley's services again in the future!”
“Anna took such great care of my dogs. They’re both anxious but she made them feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and updates daily without me asking for them and I really appreciated that. I drove 30 min knowing they would be in good hands. I would def recommend Anna! Thanks so much! 🙏🏻”
“Doggy heaven for our pup while we were away! Brandon did an amazing job at updating us throughout our time away with pictures everyday and Cookie had the best time! 🙂”
“When my girls are with Katie I know they are safe, happy, and healthy! They play and cuddle like true champions. I’m so pleased with Katie. Couldn’t be more thankful!”
“They helped me out TONS by watching my Shih Tzu for about 6 days. I’ve never used Rover before, so I was a little hesitant at first. Everything went smooth and they were flexible on drop off & pickup times since we drove all day. My dog seemed extremely comfortable @ pickup and we got several pics throughout the week! I would definitely book with them again.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Novelty on Rover is $27.75 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Novelty sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Novelty landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Novelty home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Novelty.
Tip: 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 Novelty 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 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.
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.
