“Kirah and Mitch were amazing with Nash! They made sure to send videos and updates every day which we truly appreciate. We can tell our boy was so loved there and had so much fun with their dogs since he’s been sleeping nonstop since he has gotten home. We will for sure be using them in the future!”
“Dawn and Spike are wonderful! Dawn's place is super cute and you can tell that she really loves dogs. I'll definitely use her again the next time I'm in Columbus!”
“Katie (and Ruth!) are amazing! Our shy girl had never been boarded before, and we hit the lottery with finding Katie. She was patient with letting Parsley get to know her, and didn't try to force anything. Parsley and Ruth started playing and chasing each other right away - it was awesome to see our usually shy and anxious girl come out of her shell so quickly. We were updated frequently with plenty of pictures. We could tell that Parsley was having an absolute blast - which was confirmed when I went to pick her up and she didn't want to leave. We will absolutely be booking with Katie again.”
“Allison is wonderful! She was very communicative before and during Oz’s stay and was serious about understanding his routines and habits. We felt great knowing he was getting her full attention for walks, snuggles, and care! Highly recommend!!”
“My dog had a fantastic time with Hasber. He sent lots of pictures and updates. He was also very flexible when I asked to extend the stay on short notice. She came home tired, which is not easy for an aussie!”
“Blue has been watched by Dawn and Robert since he was about 9 months old, he is now 2 and still LOVES going to their house. He loves all the attention he gets from the grandkids, and the huge backyard of course! I know this family loves blue like their own 🥰”
“Angie was wonderful with our one year old mini bernedoodle Reggie. This was only the second time he stayed in someone’s house and the first time with Angie ! She’s a happy, very positive person and gave Reggie lots of TLC while we were away. She also had to administer pills to him and she wasn’t bothered by that at all. We plan to use her services again in January 2026.”
“Great communication and provided regular updates. Oreo seemed very happy & relaxed upon pickup after the stay. Would definitely book with Amber again in the future.”
“My partner and I have a very stubborn, cuddly and energetic pitty. Rachel embraced all of her quirks with open arms and sent updates to ease our anxiety of leaving our challenging pup. We have tried multiple rovers and have finally found one that we will use over and over again!”
“Our experience with Jasmine was nothing but positive! Our boy Benji fell in love with her family especially her little girl. He was well taken care of for the 2 weeks we were away. She updated us with photos and messages throughout our trip. We would definitely book with her again. ??”
“Reggie spent an entire week with John, Shannon and their family! He had so much fun that I was afraid he would be depressed when he got home!! Daily walks, lots of fetch, played well with their dog and others that were there. We had multiple daily updates and pictures. Truly very thankful for the care he received. They treated him like their own and made us feel so comfortable while we were gone. Can't thank you all enough! We will definitely reach out the next time we are out of town!!”
“Pam is so amazing with both of our girls! They get TONS of love and attention while they stay with there. Her and her husband are incredibly patient and attentive. I hate leaving the dogs but I am always at ease when I leave them with Pam. Highly recommend her!”
“Marena was our dog savior! We had a last minute trip out of town for the 4th of July weekend and our regular boarder couldn't watch our dog. Thankfully, Marena was willing to help us out. She's so positive and caring, we had no worries about our dog who can be anxious around new people. I HIGHLY recommend Marena. She's not only an awesome dog caretaker, she's an awesome person. Thanks so much!”
About: I have had dogs and cats all throughout my life growing up, and I now have a 4 year old golden retriever and a 2 year old spunky orange cat. My animals are my world and I would treat your animals as my own! I would only want to trust my animals with someone who I knew would treat them as well as I would, and I want to provide that for others. :) I currently work from home, so I can be flexible to check in on your babies throughout the day. I’ll be available for boarding on the weekends, as long as your animal is friendly with other animals ( I have a golden retriever who loves to play and a curious kitty cat) I live in an apartment with a super friendly dog and curious kitty cat. I can crate your dog as needed and I will make sure they get lots of safe outside time together or separate as needed.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Upper Arlington is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Upper Arlington
Our Riley had a great first stay of 4 nights with Rachel. He loved his stay and was treated all so well. Played day and night with Rachel two dogs and loved running up and down stairs as well as enjoying the big backyard. Rachel was a wonderful commutator and mom to Riley. I’m sure we will be back again. Riley now has 2 Rover mom and dads that he loves staying with.
Thomas was a great Rover for our dog I cannot recommend him enough. First, when our previous Rover had to cancel due to storm damage Thomas was able to book us and meet and greet our dog quickly before we left on vacation. When dropping off the dog Thomas asked about our dog’s likes and dislikes walking habits to ensure that our dog would be very comfortable. During the stay we were always kept informed of our dog’s behaviors and received daily pictures and messages of our dog having fun throughout the stay. When our flight was delayed coming home Thomas was kind enough to extend the stay and arrange for pickup in the morning. Thomas really will love your dog and return them to you happy and well taken care of.
“ First time leaving” reassurance Leaving my dog for the first time was not easy. But Lindsey made the whole process completely stress-free. I got daily updates and pictures. Her feed schedule was also followed. Lindsey is incredibly reliable. When I picked my dog up she did not look stressed. She was happy. I will ABSOLUTELY be booking with Lindsey again for all future trips.
Leah really helped me out when I was in a bind. My A/C went out just before I was going away for a long weekend in the middle of a heatwave. She was able to keep my cats with very little notice. She kept me updated on how they were doing and my cats really took to her calm, gentle manner.
Marina was absolutely AMAZING with Chance! From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in great hands. She kept me updated with so many photos, which gave me so much peace of mind and let me see how happy and comfortable he was the entire time. She took him on plenty of walks, gave him lots of love and attention. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had the best time. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! I would recommend Marina to absolutely anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their pet. She’s the kind of person you hope to find, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Yi did a wonderful job taking care of my fur baby. She communicated well, sending pictures daily and letting me know how he was doing. This was the longest I’ve been away from him since we’ve had him, and I really appreciated how well she took care of him. She was friendly, responsive, attentive, and I didn’t have to worry about my dog being well taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!

There are 972 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Upper Arlington. About 90% of Upper Arlington sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
