“Zuri is simply AMAZING! My pup was warmly welcomed by the resident pups and had a great, extended stay. She goes above and beyond out of love for the animals. Her accommodations for my baby were great. He needed a procedure done while boarded, and Zuri stepped in, without thought or hesitation, to ensure a good recovery. My pup and I are very happy with Zuri. I didn’t think he’d want to be at home after making good friends and playmates. Fortunately for me, he did miss me. Thank you so much Zuri!”

“This was the first time I used this service. Rachel did such a great job at keeping g me at ease. She sent me photos of my babies while I was away and kept me updated. I highly recommend Rachel!”

“Birdie was amazing with our little Maggie. She has dog toys galore. It was like I dropped her off for a doggie vacation of fun. She was very attentive and constantly sent us updates and pictures. She made us feel very comfortable leaving her. She is wonderful!”

“Celene was fantastic! She’s easy going and flexible with the pick up and drop off. She loves dogs and took such great care of Vinnie. We received multiple updates a day with photos. Vinnie got along with Penny really well. Would recommend and use her again!”

“Paige did a wonderful job taking care of my fur baby. Sent me pictures daily of my baby, took him for walks, loved on him. I couldn't have been more pleased. Chris O”

“Allan is great, very communicative and kind. I never worried about my dog Penny the entire weekend and was able to enjoy myself. Definitely would recommend Allan, and I will be a repeat customer.”

“Jennifer was amazing with my dog, Pablo! She cared for him like he was her own and kept me updated every day with photos and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. Pablo was happy, well-loved, and so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”


“A big thank you to Cindie and family for Phoebe’s wonderful care while we were on vacation. She enjoyed her stay and we enjoyed peace of mind knowing she was receiving love and attention. Highly recommend Cindie.”

“Kristie took great care of Louis! She made sure to send photo and video updates to me throughout the day which helped to reassure me he was in great care. I really appreciate how she accepted us as clients even though we needed last minute booking! Will definitely be a returning client 😊🙏🏼”

“Moxie had an amazing time with Arling and his wife. Since Moxie is a puppy, they kept her on her schedule and followed the same routine that we have established. All the personal attention was great! The pictures of the walks they took warmed our hearts! We will most definitely be using them again.”


“Debra was so good with our Texas, she’s the only person we trust to leave him with. The moment I walked into her house, I felt all of my worries melt away because I could tell he was going to have a fun weekend. And he did!! Debra was very flexible and accommodating with him. She’s the only person we will be leaving our dog with from now on.”

“Kristin was very accommodating, as we had to make last minute arrangements. Rylee enjoyed her time with Kristin. Kristin kept us informed of Rylee's stay. We will be using Kristin again.”

“Sandy was a great pet sitter for my girl Boston! She was flexible with pick up and drop off times, sent me plenty of updates which helped curb my anxiety about her first time boarding with a stranger, and had great things to say about Boston which always feels good. I will definitely be using Sandy as a sitter for my dog again!”

“LaTonya was amazing! I left my energetic six month old puppy with her right in the middle of a bad teething stage and she was great! She sent multiple photos throughout the day along with frequent updates on how he was doing! My puppy had never been away from me for a night or stayed with anyone else and she was SO patient with him! Her having her own dogs is a HUGE plus since I think it was a big reason why my puppy got settled so quickly. I would recommned her to anyone!”
“Cindy watched our dog for a week while we were out of town. I was very hesitant about someone other than family watching him but there was no need for worry. He went as a happy happy dog and came home just as happy. She sent us pics everyday and he looked as happy and smiling as usual. This was a hard decision for us to make and putting him in Cindys care was the perfect decision. We would definitely use her again. Highly recommended!”

“Erin was amazing with our dog Kenai! She watched him for us while we went on our honeymoon and truly made Kenai feel at home! She sent plenty of updates and pictures to give us space of mind and we could tell Kenai just loved her and her dog Baz when we went to pick him up! I would gladly have her dog sit for us again and HIGHLY recommend her!”

Left our handful of a GSD with Zuri and Roosevelt for a week while we went out of town with the kids on vacation. Chase was right at home with their other dogs, they sent numerous photos and videos throughout the trip to keep us updated and stress free. Our dog Chase can be a lot to handle around small dogs. They were great about only keeping him around larger breeds which kept him entertained and incident free. Would give 6 stars if I could.

Julie and Rick are amazing. They took such good care of our 2 pit bulls. Our girl was very anxious and really didn’t want us to leave, and our boy is in an old man and prone to accidents at night. They actually slept with our babies to keep them calm. They sent updates and pics to let us know how they were doing the whole time. I couldn’t be happier!

I cannot recommend Prakash highly enough for his outstanding dog sitting services during our Labor Day weekend getaway. Over the course of three days, Prakash demonstrated the very qualities that distinguish an exceptional pet caregiver from merely adequate ones. From the outset, Prakash went well above and beyond our expectations by offering to handle both pickup and drop-off services – a thoughtful gesture that eliminated any stress about transportation logistics and showed his genuine commitment to convenience and service excellence. This level of consideration immediately set the tone for what would prove to be exemplary care. Throughout the weekend, it was evident that our dogs were in the hands of someone who possesses that rare combination of natural affinity with animals and professional reliability. Prakash displayed remarkable attentiveness to our pets' individual needs and personalities, ensuring they felt comfortable and secure in his care. His patience and gentle demeanor clearly resonated with our dogs, who returned home relaxed and content – always the ultimate testament to quality care. What particularly impressed me was Prakash's reliability and trustworthiness. He maintained excellent communication regarding scheduling and demonstrated the kind of responsibility that allows pet owners to truly relax during their time away. His punctuality and professional approach reflect someone who takes his commitment to both pets and their families seriously. The only area where I see room for enhancement would be in the frequency and detail of photo updates during care periods. While the dogs were clearly well-supervised and happy, more frequent visual check-ins would provide additional peace of mind for anxious pet parents. Prakash embodies the qualities every pet owner hopes to find: genuine love for animals, dependable character, flexibility in accommodating special requests, and that intuitive understanding of what makes each dog feel safe and loved. He treated our beloved companions as if they were his own, and that caring approach made all the difference. I would not hesitate to book Prakash again for future pet sitting needs and recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone seeking a dedicated, trustworthy caregiver for their furry family members.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Sylvania on Rover is $37.45 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 .

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.
100% of Sylvania 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 Sylvania 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 Sylvania 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 Sylvania.
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 Sylvania 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.
