“Zuri is an absolutely amazing puppy caregiver! She took care of our puppy for several days and treated her like one of her own. We got constant updates and pictures of our sweet girl. Any fears or unease was quickly put to rest after meeting Zuri. Summer enjoyed her stay and even missed her “second “ family when we picked her back up. I would recommend Zuri for boarding hands down! Her entire family was amazing. She is so kind, caring, professional and compassionate. We were blessed to find her. She is extremely knowledgeable about pets and is always willing to go the extra mile for you. We will definitely be back for as long as she will have us!”

Jayden sent plenty of pictures throughout her stay, and seeing how happy, relaxed, and well cared for she was gave me so much peace of mind.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up in a home filled with pets of all kinds. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including those with special medical needs or health conditions. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or requires extra patience and attention, I’ll provide compassionate, reliable care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, experienced hands. I currently own a business and have a very flexible schedule with plenty of time to care for my furry friends! I live with my husband and two boys ages 10 & 15; who are also very helpful with any pet needs especially play time and walks. I prioritize every pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being by providing a clean, secure, and loving environment. I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, a pet-free home with no other animals, and I always maintain close supervision, follow routines, and give each pet the individual attention they deserve.
“Lillian and Jeremy are excellent sitters to my dog Smokey! They are always my number one choice everytime I leave town. My dog Smokey loves them and their two lovely dogs that are his friends now! They are excellent communicators and are very prompt with responding, and they also send me picture updates of my pet. I will continue to rebook with them!”
“Debra did an awesome with my dog Lulu! My dog got along great with hers and Debra kept me up to date on how the stay was going with text and pics! Great job Debra, and thank you!”
“They are great! They’re clearly dog loving people and it was nice knowing our dog was getting a lot of love and attention. Communication was consistent and we had a great experience!! We’d definitely use them again in the future.”

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
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.
