“Jess took exceptional care of our older Bernese Mtn dog, Gracie. Just as her background on Rover indicates, Jess is well-versed in special care with administering meds and handling our dog who has some issues with weakness. Her care goes beyond those two qualities! Our dog loved her stay there as to how great she looked when we picked her up! Jess gave us a daily photo update and stayed connected with us about an issue Gracie had, which was quickly resolved. Wonderful peace of mind. We can't say enough great things about Jess. She is the best!”

“Fantastic family took great care of my pups! Their home became home for my dogs. Plenty of fenced in yard for the active one. They took exceptional care of the older one with medical needs too. Their children and dogs were welcoming and kept my dogs plenty busy. I highly recommend and will definitely use them again.”

“Connie and Greg are such a blessing to me! They have taken care of my dog multiple times and treat him like he was their own! Connie sends pictures and updates frequently, so you don’t have to wonder how your dog is doing. The attention to detail is unmatched! I can’t say thank you enough!”

“We have used Gail for the past couple of years for all of our trips. She does great with my dog and keeps me updated through out the week. And she has never canceled on us which makes me feel confident when I book her so far in advance. Thanks for taking great care of Tiko!”

“Catherine and her husband (sorry, I forgot his name) were amazing! They agreed to sit Myles last minute with no hesitation. We met and Myles loved them and Pepper! Thank you so much for keeping Myles. I think you guys spoiled him too much, lol!”

“Jason gave us so much peace of mind while we were away for the weekend! Regular updates and photos of our dog and was super flexible when our pickup time was changed. I was so happy when I read that he volunteers at his local animal shelter because that really shows how much he cares for dogs & that he can handle all types of dogs!”

“The whole family is so sweet and loved having my pup for the weekend! They sent picture updates and were very quick to respond to messages. Would definitely let they pup-sit again!”

“Daniel & Rachel are amazing boarders. They took such great care of my Rottweiler Mia. I had an issue with timing for drop off/ pick up and they were very accommodating. This was Mia's first time being boarded. They took excellent care of Mia for all those days and during that time even were able to introduce her to leash walking which she had never done as she uses an invisible fence on my property and had never been leashed. They even provided information on the exact harness that was used, and I bought my own. Besides how great they took care of her providing her with toys, interaction, attention, and walks I also received daily pics of Mia playing, going to the dog park, etc. They kept me apprised as to how she was doing making my time away worry free & less anxious. If you desire individual care & attention for your dog then Daniel & Rachel are definitely the top choice! Excellent people and excellent communication!”

“Brendan and Sarah were wonderful. They boarded Gracie with little notice, sent lots of photos, and Gracie had such a good time she didn’t want to leave.”

“Jan did an excellent job watching my Yorkie Bichon mix! She was a pleasure to meet and the experience of introducing my dog and getting the arrangement set up went really well. She sent lots of photos and updates during the stay. She helped put me at ease with her level of care and attention to detail regarding the entire stay. I would highly recommend Jan as a dog sitter and I definitely will be going back in the future I’m sure!”

“Athena was very responsive and understanding of Bella’s needs. She also kept in contact with me and even sent me pictures. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her in the future.”

“Great sitter. Anita is obviously an animal lover. She provided daily pictures and texts regarding Mona’s day. It was nice to know I could travel and not have to worry about how she was doing.”

“Kate was an amazing sitter! She made the entire process seamless, providing regular updates and adorable pictures of our dog. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!”

“Stephanie was able to accept a last minute request which was extremely helpful. We have had Oakley stay multiple times. He loves the yard! Stephanie was responsive and communicative. Oakley came home calm and happy! Thank you.”

“She was awesome and extra attentive since I was sending my cats off to temporary foster and their stay with her. She kept me updated on their interactions and progress in a new environment. She also sent lots of pics and allowed me the opportunity to watch them through camera footage. She was great!”

“Just Picked our Pup up from Pats and she couldnt have been happier. Pat is so attentive with the Pets and her little dog gets along so well with ours. A repeat customer and cant imagine using anybody else. Thanks again.”

“Our puppy of 9 months really enjoyed staying with Alayna & Adam! In fact, it seemed he made himself right at home with their 2 much larger dogs. Great photos and a great time! Communication was excellent! Looking forward to our next stay!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stow
We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Zachary and his family! From the very beginning, they were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and easy to work with. Communication was prompt, honest, and open throughout the entire process. Before we booked, Zachary scheduled a meet and greet where we had the opportunity to meet him, his family, and his dogs to make sure everyone was a good fit. That extra step gave us so much confidence and showed how much he cares about creating a safe and comfortable environment for every dog. When our travel plans changed before the meet and greet, Zachary was very accommodating and made the booking process completely stress-free. From there, everything was seamless. While we were away, Zachary thoughtfully sent us daily updates and photos. It was so reassuring to see our puppy happy, having fun, and getting plenty of love and attention. It was clear he wasn't just being watched—he was treated like part of the family. Their kids were wonderful with him, and we know he loved having friends to play with. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and wouldn't hesitate to book with Zachary and his family again. If you're looking for a kind, trustworthy, communicative family who will care for your dog as if it were their own, we highly recommend them!

Shayna was incredible at caring for my furbaby. She went above and beyond in her care including always communicating with me through out. I think she is the best on Rover! I was nervous leaving my little one for days without me and in a strangers care, but she clearly made it easier and which gave me the confidence that my doggy would be well cared for! Boy was I right! I will book her again as my Yorkie seemed to love her lots. If you ask me she needs to open her own doggy daycare business!!!! Thank you again Shayna!!! My little one came back so happy and full of joy after being with you!!!

Our first Rover experience with Kaishin exceeded our already high expectations. We were reassured daily that Fiona was safe and content which enhanced our travel experience knowing she was happy. We are grateful to Kaishin and hope she will consider watching Fiona in the future.

Sadie is absolutely wonderful! She watched our puppy Kovu for 5 nights and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the start, she was so understanding of his needs. She sent us daily pictures, videos, and progress updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Kovu was having a great time with her, her son, and her dog. He came home just as happy as when he left! We completely trust her and are so grateful to have found someone who loves our pup like we do. Highly recommend and we'll definitely be booking with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Stow on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 803 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Stow. 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 Stow 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 Stow 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 Stow 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 Stow.
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 Stow 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.
