“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”
“I felt totally at ease leaving our standard poodle with Andreja for a 4 day weekend. She sent photos of Ruby my dog, and I appreciated it and it gave me ease in leaving her. Totally trust her and would leave Ruby with her again. Vicki Hudak”
“Margaret was very friendly she treated our dog like he was her own! I loved getting pictures of my dog enjoying walks and playtime with her dog! I gave very short notice but she was very accommodating and understanding. We would love to use her again and highly recommend her to others.”
“My chocolate Lab Bruno sprints from my car to her door every time I drop him off there. Needless to say he loves staying with Jenni and her family,and we have the peace of mind knowing he is loved and well taken care of.”
“From the moment I met Barbara I knew my pet would be safe with her. Skai took to her right away. Her home was peaceful and welcoming. Barbara kept me updated- assuring me our dog was doing well. I will definitely use her services again.”
“First time using Rover & leaving our precious pup with someone else. We are so glad we found Carey! She helped us feel at ease and sent lots of updates & pictures! Her dog is very sweet & the 2 of them got along without issues. He was well cared for & loved. He also got a lot of exercise! So much better than being locked up in a kennel! We hope she can watch him many more times in the future!”
“Sarah took phenomenal care of our senior dog who has multiple health concerns. I felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. Sarah has jumped to the top of our list of sitters.”
“Caroline and Samuel were fantastic with my dog Netty. They were flexible with pick up times and they genuinely care about your dogs well being and happiness. The updates they sent made me smile and reassured Netty was in good hands. Their dog Winnie is adorable and eager to play with your dog any chance she gets! 100% recommend booking with them! Will book again soon. Thank you for a great experience”
“Kelly was incredible with our Kona! She is truly a trusted sitter and I am so glad to have found her. She followed all of our directions, made sure he was well taken care of, and most of all, made him feel at home. She even provided plenty of cute pictures of Kona and updated us along the way. She is terrific!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities for over 20 years.

Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with people, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“Hailey and Potato were wonderful hosts to our dogs, Marley and Luna. Luna is a bit shy and Luna was able to open uo and play with Potato. Hailey sent just enough photos and updates throughout the visit and was very accommodating with the scheduling. The girls came back extremely happy and had a wonderful time with their stay with Hailey. Her yard is perfect and she is very efficient with drop off and pickups. I would definitely have our girls stay with Hailey again!”
“So grateful for the excellent care they provided! We were so nervous about leaving our 11 year old dog with separation anxiety with someone else. Megan sent photos and updates daily and it was incredibly clear that Lily was having a great time and was so well cared for. Lily got daily walks, playtime, and cuddles. Lily takes medication multiple times a day that they had no problem administering. I ended up feeling like Lily was on a little vacation while we were away. Truly cannot say enough great things about the care they provided!”
“Lynn went above and beyond while watching my two senior chihuahuas- I wasn’t worried once while I was away from them for a trip out of town because of her daily updates with photos, videos and funny stories about their day. I can’t say enough nice things about Lynn and how comfortable she made me feel with leaving my pups with her! Absolutely recommend, and will be using her services again in the future!”
“Shannon and Robert were absolutely wonderful! Their family is so kind, and their children were great with Henry. He settled in right away and honestly didn’t seem like he wanted to leave when we picked him up. They kept him active all day, so he came home happy and completely worn out (in the best way!). We’d absolutely trust them with Henry again and look forward to booking with them in the future.”
“As a very anxious dog mama, I was so skeptical to use a sitter. Matt went above and beyond, sending updates, pictures, responding quickly, and making sure my pup was comfortable and well taken care of! My pup can’t wait for another stay with get favorite sitter ◡̈”
“Our dog seemed to enjoy his stay! The last minute availability was very appreciated and communication was great. We appreciated the updates and pictures while we were gone. Would definitely recommend and use again if we have another trip.”
“Lexi was wonderful. She really seemed to enjoy my dog, a boxer. She sent me a lot of pics suggesting he was having a fine time at his sleep over. I immediately felt at ease with leaving him there. I’ll use her again if she is available. When we got him his stools were normal (they aren’t when he is stressed) and he hadn’t lost weight (does when he is stressed). He was fine.”
“Ron did an outstanding job with our black lab. He is clearly a genuine dog person and made sure our pup got plenty of walking, playing, and just-chillin-with-people time. He even gave her a nice brushing before we picked her up- her coat looked great! If I could give more than five stars, I would-- Will definitely use Ron again!!”

Emily H ; I would highly recommend, she is a very calm person ,and has a lot of patience. She sent pictures everyday , and texted updates on our senior dog . Her home was clean and orderly , and her two dogs were just fine with ours . Our dog seemed so calm there and fit right in . We would definitely use Emily on a regular basis . Don’t hesitate to use her !
Emily was great with my two small dogs. She treated them like her own. She gave daily updates and pictures. My dogs got along with her dog, too, who is super sweet and gentle. I will definitely be reaching out to Emily again to rebook. Thanks for everything! It made for a stress free trip out of state.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Vermilion is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $52 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 436 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Vermilion. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Vermilion can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Vermilion 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 Vermilion.
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 Vermilion 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.
