“Alexandria is the best, she is so sweet and my fur babies love her and love hanging out with her when I am traveling. She offered so many wonderful pics and updates and kept my boys busy and active and they had an absolute blast with her.”

“Olivia was very responsive and professional. We were looking for a late booking for a spontaneous getaway and she was amazing! She took wonderful care of our headstrong Chessie named Guapo. She kept us updated with photos and their activities. We would trust her anytime we need a sitter again! Thank you Olivia!”

“He was great at being communicative and sending pictures and Daisy had such a great time with the other dogs! Even when my flight was running a little late, he was very understanding of the situation! I definitely recommend looking your furry friend with Hasber! He also lives very close by to my home. It feels good to know that there is someone close by. I can trust to watch my furry best friend if I ever go on a trip ever again.”

“Great communication! Sent lots of pictures and a couple videos. Made me feel like they were treating my dog like family. Loki got plenty of exercise and attention. Great people. Would book with them again!”

“Our dog was so happy staying with this lovely family! They treated him like their own, sent pictures often and were incredibly communicative. We’d definitely entrust our dog with them again!”


About: Hi! I am a pet owner and enthusiast. Since I am a professor, I work from home and have a lot of free time in summers and holidays to hang out with your wonderful dog. I love getting to know a pet’s wants, anticipate their anxieties, and most importantly play! My work requires me to be on-site part time, so I am quite flexible for overnight stays, extra long walks, and boarding at my place with my sheltie Flora. I have a two bedroom apartment with my sweet, spayed sheltie Flora who loves to play and take naps. I am quite active so I would be happy to take your dog on long epic walks.
“Summer was amazing! She was accommodating and understanding when we issues with dropoff and pickup. Lucky had a wonderful time with her and her family. Will definitely have her again as a sitter”

“Leanne was great with Buckeye when I went out of town. I was skeptical about the dogs getting along but she assured me they did great together. I will definitely use her services again when I go out of town. Thank you for taking good care of my dog!”

“So nice to know my pup had a family to love him while I was away. Jasmine was great - super responsive and flexible with drop off/pickup pending flight schedules. Strongly recommend!”

“Coco had a great time!! Allison is great at sending updates (pictures and videos) enjoying her time, which made it easier for us to be away from Coco for so many days. Thank you Allison!”


“Erika and her daughter took the greatest of care with my very large dog! They were flexible with pick up and drop off, so very kind and loving in their care and sent pictures and updates daily to this mom that was sad to leave her boy for a a long period. Thank you Erika and Emily!”
“Will and Bibiana were awesome. Responsive, kind, and sent photos while we were apart from our dog. Luna was clearly relaxed and well attended to in their home.”

“Marena was a fantastic sitter for my dog Max! She gave me frequent updates and had no issues with the provided instructions for his care. Marena took such great care of Max, I don’t think he wanted to leave when we picked him up :) I will definitely have her watch Max again in the future.”


“Rachel was lovely to work with. She communicates well and I could tell she cared about my dogs. Her home is set up well to ensure the pets safety and her dogs are great companions.”
“Angela did a wonderful job taking care of Willow. She sent pictures and updates which was much appreciated. Will book with her again! Willow loved their morning jogs together as well.”

“Emily was great! This was our first time using a sitter instead of a boarding facility. She was quick to respond to messages and sent pictures. Our girl came home rested and happy instead of stressed out and exhausted from no sleep. Thank you!”

“Sorillian was a great communicator while booking and throughout my dogs stay. She was very flexible on pick up and drop off which fit my needs perfectly!”

“ 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!

Jeff and Lynn were excellent! They sent us updates and pictures, and followed our requests about food and exercise. They paid close attention to our dog’s medicine needs too. Sunny and Coco returned home the happier they’ve ever been in boarding. It gave us peace of mind to know our dogs got such great care!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Upper Arlington on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 970 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Upper Arlington. About 92% of Upper Arlington sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
