“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!”
“Scott was able to take a quick last minute booking. He was super kind to my very flighty dogs. He had the dogs comfortable enough that they were actually resting in their dog beds. Very thankful for his willingness to help in a pinch.”
“Ashleigh was wonderful with my senior dog. He is very timid and from the pictures, he seemed to be right at home with her. Made me very happy he had a safe, secure and loving place to stay while I was traveling.”
“I had the good fortune of finding Deanna! She has established a safe and dog friendly haven that caters to the enjoyment of many breeds. Deanna goes above and beyond to understand the preferences and needs of your fur baby, ensuring a caring experience. I not only recommend but will use her services again.”

“Shannon's one of the only people my dog (a Velcro border collie/aussie mix) has run to in excitement to hang out instead of dread in the knowledge that I'm leaving her. I travel easily knowing my Hallie is getting a mini-vacation of her own while I'm out of town 🩵🩵”
“Joy was a great pet sitter while we were out of town. She watched over our two senior dogs, and gave them all the love and attention they needed. Joy was very communicative throughout their stay and understanding as we had delays getting home. We would recommend and use Joy again!”
“Kyla proved to be trustworthy from the moment we met. She adeptly managed Remington's size and temperament, making me feel very comfortable to leave him overnight. In addition, she was quite responsive to communication, flexible with both drop off and pick up times. I am eager to board Remington with her again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pickerington
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 July 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 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.
