“Scott and Katrina were wonderful! They communicated with us throughout Kona’s stay and sent lots of photos and videos, which we really appreciated. Kona loved playing with their dogs and having their beautiful backyard to run around in. Scott and Katrina were both so sweet with her, and it was obvious that Kona felt happy and comfortable with them. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!”
“This was our first time leaving Rufus anywhere overnight and he did fabulously! Karen was good to send updates and pics to assure me that Rufus was having a great time! He hit it off with Boomer and the two played all day and night. By time we got Rufus home, he was a happy, tired boy! :) We already have Karen scheduled for our next outing. Highly recommend!”
“Top notch! Elizabeth is a very responsible and responsive sitter. My pup had so much fun - I could tell she didn't really want to come home. Will certainly use Elizabeth's services again!”
“Ashleigh was exceptionally caring and looked after Teddy like he was one of her own! Very good communication and I will definitely be sending my friends and family her way.”
“Rene was great!! Watched our boy for a week & he can be a handful at times. She has a lot of land; we know Archie had a blast being outside! She updated us every day with some photos so we were reassured it was going well. Would definitely recommend!”
“I am so happy we found Nate and Aylissia for LiLi. Given that her last favorite sitter died unexpectedly, it's been hard for us to feel comfortable with someone new. I was grateful that Aylissia communicated with me while I was away and sent cute pics. Also LiLi loved her time - when she got home, I could tell she'd had a great stay. We will definitely book again if you'll have my girl!”
“Deanna was excellent with Kobe. Kobe had been diagnosed with IVDD a day before he was scheduled to stay with Deanna. Deanna helped him in every way possible and then some, administered his meds and kept me up to date with everything. Highly recommended!”
About: Former dog mom turned professional pet spoiler. I've been owned by two dogs and regularly watch friends' pets. You'll get LOTS of pictures, adorable updates, and the occasional letter directly from your buddy while you're away. I do work full time, but close to home so I'm out about 9 hours. I'm happy to take on pups that are potty trained. They get breaks and walks in the morning and breaks and walk all evening and night. When I watch dogs, my social life is limited, as I find much more joy loving on your little ones. 😍 I have open availability and am able to watch your pet in my home or yours. I'll treat your dog like my own, spoil them, give them all the love, or as much space as they choose. Your baby is allowed on the furniture and in bed, if they like, and you allow. We follow your rules and your routine, as much as possible, and any diversions from routine will be communicated.
“Cristi is an amazing sitter for my mini labradoodle doodle Bella. She sends me updates and pictures during Bella’s stay. I never have to worry when I’m away from home because I know Bella is in Cristi’s care and is being well taken care of. I highly recommend her services.”
“Dana watched our two Cavapoo puppies, 14 weeks old, for 11 days. We got frequent pictures during their stay of them at play and hanging with her dogs. We highly recommend her and will definitely want to book with her again.”
“Emily and her family were amazing. She was very attentive to my older dog and was great with giving me updates and pictures. He even got to meet goats!!! Thank you so much Emily I will definitely use you again. I highly recommend”
“Amy was absolutely wonderful and accommodating. She allowed extra time for pickup when our flight got in late. She kept us updated and sent pictures of Blue throughout his stay. I will definitely book with Amy again!”
“Felt so comfortable with our puppy being with Justen. He communicated with us every day and made sure King felt at home. Justen is a very nice person I highly recommend him if you need someone to take care of your fur baby.”
“Joe is amazing! He was very good at checking in, sending pictures and updates with my guy. It seems that Joe’s house is the spot to be for the little fur babies; Zeus came home, greeted the kids and I and went right to sleep from exhaustion. You could tell he had been doing a lot of playing and running around while he was there. He had a lot of fun and I’m sure he’s looking forward to his next visit with Joe and his buddies.”
“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.”
“Victoria was awesome! Super professional upon meeting and was absolutely in love with our Dino. She sent lots of pics, gave our guy frequent walks and was extremely easy to communicate and work with. Bottom line, I'd recommend her to anyone!”
“Jaz B accommodated our last minute need for a sitter and the experience was first class! We are truly grateful for her and her family. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Joy was amazing with our senior dog, Betsy! She set up a meet and greet before Betsy’s stay to make sure Betsy felt comfortable at drop off. Joy sent frequent updates when we were out of town and Betsy had a great stay.”
“I was a little nervous leaving my big guy for the first time but they took great care of him and sent updates daily with pictures. He had sooo much fun. I will most definitely be using them again in the future. Thank you so much for taking great care of him.”

I have booked Jaz as a walker due to surgery preventing me from walking my dog for a while. Because of her dependability, professionalism, and communication I also booked Jaz to board my dog in her home for a short vacation. She is set up to board beautifully, and my dog loves her and her family, which is really the true test of a person. I am so glad to find someone that I trust who does such a great job.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Pickerington on Rover is $37.45 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 .
As of September 2026, there are 913 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Pickerington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Pickerington 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 Pickerington 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 Pickerington 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 Pickerington.
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 Pickerington 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.
