“Teah and Eric are THE BEST!!!! I could tell my puppy loved them and felt comfortable at their house right away. Teah sent updates throughout the day as well as AMAZING photos and videos of her playing with the other pups!!! I WILL be booking Teah and Eric for any upcoming trips I may have and you should, too!!!!”
“Patricia is an extraordinary dog sitter! From the moment we met her to drop off Novak, she was extremely friendly and attentive, and we could tell that we’d made the right choice for his care. She sent many photos and videos of Novak having a great time with her sweet dogs and texted updates as well. When it was time for Novak to go, she sent him off with a toy as well! If in this area again, we’d definitely board Novak with Patricia!”
“John was super amazing and so sweet to our two dogs. He kept us updated on how they were doing and sent photos which were great to see throughout their stay. I highly recommend John!”
“This was Rowan’s second time staying with Melissa. She takes great care of him. He loves running in their yard and playing with their dogs. She keeps me updated on how he’s doing.”
“Lisa was great and I’m pretty sure my dog was bummed to come home. He lived his best life while there. He got snuggles, love and even took over their dogs bed. Lisa was diligent on communication and sending me pictures with updates. She welcomed me to visit before I booked. She has a fenced in yard where my dog could go out the doggie door when he needed. She gladly gave him his eye drops. Bowser will be back for sure! Thank you so much.”
“Meghan did a wonderful job with my senior dog. I was nervous to leave her, because I don't do it much, but I definitely felt better knowing she was in Meghan's care. She's very thorough in gathering information to ensure your pup has the best, most comfortable time. I'll definitely be asking her again.”
“I would definitely board with Katie again. Our dog Trina jumped out of the car on her own (a first for her) when we got there after the meet and greet. She seemed like she had a very good time staying with Katie and other pooches when we picked her up.”
“Krystal and Ryan are the best. My dog always had seperation anxieties when we traveled, but this time she came back as if she were at a vacation :) She also mastered climbing stairs during her stay, which we had not been able to, and Krystal and Ryan accomplished it :) I can never thank them enough. They are awesome!”
“Dariana was an excellent sitter for Luna. She was responsive, flexible, and provided regular updates. Luna very clearly was happy and comfortable during her stay. I would 100% recommend her! 😊”
“Michelle was an excellent dog sitter. We knew Cookie was in safe hands while we enjoyed some Fall camping. When I got back into cell phone service on Sunday I was greeted with dozens of pictures of Cookie having fun and going for walks. He got a bath as well, and smells lovely. :-)”
“Thank you Beka and Ryan, This was Sandie's first visit and she came home totally relaxed and happy. She not only made two new friends people friends, but also two new doggie friends as well !! I have already scheduled her next visit and now feel comfortable knowing we can go on our weekend trips and know that our daughter is in great hands.”
“We booked a drop-off time at 6am. Due to travel need, we asked to drop off about one hour earlier and Jenna allowed without hesitate. That was an early morning right after a busy July-4 evening. I really appreciate Jenna’s excellent servicing and would not hesitate recommending her.”
“This was our first time using Rover. I was so happy that we found Taylor to care for our goldendoodle, Rosie. Rosie was well cared for during her stay. Taylor was very responsive and gave us updates. We look forward to having Rosie stay with Taylor again.”
“Cora was WONDERFUL! My dogs are my babies so I was nervous about taking them to a stranger’s home, but I was so relieved after I met Cora and her family. What a loving and fun home she provides for all of the pets. Never again will my pups go to a boarding facility! They had a blast with Cora and the pictures and videos she sent made my day!”
“Leslie was so great with my dog Payton! She would send me pics and keep me posted on how things were going. You can tell how much Leslie loves animals and how much she really cared about taking care of my dog! Will definitely use her again! Thanks for everything!”
“She was very kind and attentive to our dog. I had to go on a long international trip, but she sent photos and updates the whole time. I definitely recommend her—thank you for your care.”
“Sara and Craig watched my dog, Hazel for 9 nights while we were out of town. They were the most accommodating and allowed Hazel to visit beforehand to make sure our dog was compatible with their family and dogs. They sent occasionally photo updates, which I appreciated. We appreciate their extra love and cuddles to Hazel especially during thunderstorms.”
“My dog had a fun time staying with Lerae, he probably felt like he was away at camp! She also provided frequent updates with pictures which I appreciated so much. I would highly recommend her!”
“We had a great experience with Brie, and she was amazing with my pup! She was kind, responsive, and kept me updated with plenty of photos. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. I’ll definitely book with her again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - The Woods
Daisy loves staying with April! It’s almost like a home away from home for her! She’s such a caring person! (I almost don’t want to tell everyone how fantastic she is because it could limit her availability for Daisy at some point). We feel very fortunate to have found her (and Maple)!
Penny was an outstanding sitter to work with. Our pups seemed to do really well with her and her own dogs. She was very accommodating, a great communicator, and super easy to work with in every respect. We were also sent plenty of pictures throughout their visit. I’d recommend Penny to anyone looking for help with their pet(s).

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 The Woods home-away-from-home, 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 The Woods.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 The Woods 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 , 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 .
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.
