“Lauren looked after my baby while I was out of town, I was nervous because it was his first time spending the night away from me, but it’s safe to say that he had the time of his life! He was able to socialize with other dogs which was definitely a plus for me, she was also super sweet and professional. So happy to have found her ❤️”
“Lauren and her family took Doug in as if he was their own. I recieved updates and plenty of pictures of Doug playing with their puppy Cinder, who is an absolute sweetheart. There is absolutely no doubt that I will be booking with Lauren and her family again.”
“Everything was great from beginning to end! Ellie had a great time with Tom. He was flexible, communicative, and kept her active with lots of walks and play time. He sent the perfect amount of pictures and updates, and I know Ellie would be so excited to go back for future trips! Highly recommend!”
“I’m so impressed with Brandon! They took such great care of my geriatric dog, and I loved receiving pictures and updates throughout the day. They were so kind, great communicators, and most importantly, took amazing care of my girl. Brandon’s two dogs are also so sweet and playful and they seemed to get along really well with my slow potato dog. Brandon was also super accommodating when my plans changed last minute. I’m so thankful they were available to care for my old lady while I was away. I felt confident knowing she was in good hands!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Henry, he was very happy under Angie’s care. Angie kept me updated with how Henry was doing, sent pictures of him every day he was with her, and even sent a few videos showing how Henry was playing and getting along with everyone. I will recommend Angie to anyone who is looking for someone to watch their dog, she’ll take care of them like they were her own.”
“Emily is a great dog sitter, I would highly recommend. I truly appreciate the daily photos and the dropping off service. Eevee seems equally as happy. Thank you Emily.”
“Gigi had a great time with Angie. She sent pictures of Gigi during her stay and was very comforting to lnow she was being taken cared of and looked comfortable When we picked her up she was so happy! I will definitely use Angie again for next doggie stay!”
“Michelle and her family were absolutely fantastic! They took care of my pup like he was their own. Great communication and tons of pictures. Would recommend them 10/10!”
“Hayley did a phenomenal job! I highly recommend her. Our pup is like a kid to us so we were very nervous leaving her but instantly felt comfortable with Hayley and her family! Thank you a ton for watching our pup!”
“Jeffry and Jessica were great sitters of nala! Very responsive and provided great updates on nala which I appreciated. She seemed to warm up to them easily and would def use again!”
“Emily was great! This was our first time using a sitter instead of a boarding facility. She was quick to respond to messages and sent pictures. Our girl came home rested and happy instead of stressed out and exhausted from no sleep. Thank you!”
“Tamisha is incredible! I had to leave town on an emergency and she welcomed Xyla with open arms. She sent pictures most days with updates on who the new friends were. You can tell, Tamisha has a way with the pups, Xyla talked about her the whole way home. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!”
“We have booked an overnight stay with Karl last year so we knew we wanted him to watch our bulldog while we went on vacation for about a week and a half. Lou can be a bit of a handful but Karl is knowledgeable, kind and patient so we had a worry free week+ knowing Lou was in great hands! Karl's comminution and picture updates eased my June knowing he was getting attention and not just locked up all day! We had a couple flight changes but Karl worked with us which was a huge weight lifted. If I could give more stars I would 😀”
“Megan & Jay were wonderful! Easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures. They took great care of our pup! She looks forward to staying with them again!”
“Bueller had a wonderful time with Karen and her family! She was extremely welcoming and made us all feel right at home. She was patient with Bueller adapting to her house and gave him lots of love. She also did a great job of providing photo updates while we were away overnight. Thanks so very much!”
“Ashle was INCREDIBLE! I have never left my dog with anyone but family, so Ashle was the first. She sent me texts with photos daily & let me know how Lady was doing. I was out of state for a few days & I felt confident she was not only being taken care of, but loved on as well!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rupert
Kelsey was amazing taking care of my two pups for a long week away. It was the first time leaving my two dogs with a stranger and they both had lots of fun with her on her property and she was a huge help when one dog had a minor injury while playing. She was very communicative and provided lots of pics and videos daily.
Kelsey was fantastic. Our dog was only 11 months old, still a puppy but Kelsey had everything handled. We were gone for 10 days which was a little scary but Kelsey provided pictures and videos that let us know he was doing just fine. We came back to a healthy, happy dog and could not have been happier. I highly recommend Kelsey, especially if you need more than a couple days of help.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Rupert 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 Rupert.
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 Rupert 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.
