“Dierde was great! I was nervous about leaving our high-energy, low-manners lab with her for a whole week but she reassured me that she was used to high-energy labs. Our dog had a blast running the fence line and getting out all that pent-up energy. Will contact her again the next time we need a dog-sitter.”

“Megan and her family gave both of our pups the best company while we were away on vacation! They came home exhausted from all the playing and fun they had! She made it really easy to contact her and gave us updates throughout the week which eased our nerves of being away from them! Thanks again Megan!!”

“Jean is the best. I completely trust Winston with her. She treats him like family and keeps me updated. Winston can be clingy but I have no reservations leaving him with her knowing she treats him so well. I won't leave him with anyone else. Thank you Jean.”

“Deborah was great with our 9 year old terrier. She was very communicative and sent updated pictures throughout our trip. When we returned, our dog was calm and content. We will definitely use her services again.”

“This was our first time using Tristan and was very pleased with the care that he and his family gave our dog. Was such a nice change over the kennel that we would have normally used, was like having him at a friends home. Will definitely use his services again!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little unsure on the overall process and experience. My dog can be a little apprehensive and anxious at times, especially when meeting new people. Dawn alleviated any concerns I had from the moment she reached out. Ahead of my boarding time, Dawn was flexible and made herself available to do a meet and greet and showed me her home and let my dog explore to become familiar with the environment. During my time away, Dawn provided photos and updates each day. I highly recommend Dawn and know that you will be in good hands!”

“The ladies have been to Jim’s for 2 separate long weekends!! Amazing dude with a true gift of dog connection!! The ladies have never been away from home and they get right in the car to go back!! THANKS Jim”

“Andrew took great care of Luna while I was out of town!!! I could tell Luna was having fun and was comfortable by the pictures and videos he’d send me. My mind was at ease while I was away from my fur baby which was so nice!”

“Jennifer was so understanding, kind, and compassionate with my anxious senior dog. I used her for an overnight visit and my quickly felt comfortable at her home. I highly recommend her and hope to use her services again!”

“So my dog stayed for the first time this past weekend. He was well taken care of and I got daily photos and updates on him. I already booked another boarding with her for both of my dogs. I love the pick up and drop off service. It’s so convenient when you’re traveling to not have to worry about dropping your pets off or picking them up after a vacation. This is a great addition to her services.”

“Brooke and Jeremy are fantastic! They have a big yard which is perfect because our dog loves to be outside. And they accommodate our dog as if he is one of their own! 😊”

“Mayra and her husband was so warm welcoming! They let me know where Milo would be playing and hanging out. Which left me at easy leaving my baby boy. As well Mayra loves playing little games with the doggies she sent me a video of my Milo playing the game and doing so well! She shared pictures as well and always communicated with me when i would ask about Milo. Milo came back so happy ❤️ I would definitely book again with Mayra! Thank you so much!”


“Theresa and her entire family have truly treated Sissy like family. Everything from drop off to pick up was easy and seamless. I have so much peace about leaving my dog for an entire week knowing how much she was going to be loved and cared for. We cannot thank you enough! Sissy loves you all!”

“We just love having Mollie take care of our puppy. She is great at communicating and working with our schedule. Our puppy gets so excited and happy when we arrive! Mollie and her family are so thoughtful and considerate and it is very reassuring to know our pup is safe and content while we are away.”

“Awesome to work with. Professional and understanding throughout stay. Liceth sent us photos and videos every day and updated us with any concerns. She did a great job and was a pleasant experience for our first time using rover”

“Penny was fabulous! It felt good knowing my pups were in capable hands. Penny has two pups of her own, a lovely house and a great yard for the dogs to play. She took such good care of my pups. She’s clearly a dog person and allows dogs to be dogs even in her house. Highly recommend! ?”

“I just want to eternally thank Cassandra for taking care of my boy as if he were me in such a short time. She made me feel very safe and comfortable on my vacation without having to think so much, but thanks to her I was very comfortable during these days away from my baby. Thank you so much and I recommend her with my eyes closed. She is very good at what she does 👏”

“Johanny did a wonderful job caring for our Honey while we were on vacation. When we brought her there, her home was welcoming and set up to care for our dog. We received photos and videos. When we came to pick her up, she was shampooed, and even had a little bow in her hair. I would definitely leave our dog in her care again and highly would recommend her.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Port Clinton
This has been the best dog sitting service I've had. Very quick communication, accommodating, fair and gave daily updates. On top of that, my dog was treated as if he was one of their own babies and I value this so much. He was so happy being here. For additional context, I drove 2 hours to find Bishop a good sitter and I am so happy I did. Worth every penny and will be using again for sure.

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.
93% of Port Clinton 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 Port Clinton 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 Port Clinton 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 Port Clinton.
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 Port Clinton 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 PA 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.
