“I have a 12 yo German Shepard. He's an old man now. We were going away for New Years and our normal sitter wasn't available. I was apprehensive about leaving him with someone new. Karin was spectacular. She was attentive to his needs and careful about his 'age' related shortcomings. She has a pup of her own and a young son who loved my boy. Karin sent plenty of pics of him and was very communicative during his stay, asking questions to make sure behaviors were normal and making sure he'd tolerate the environment there! I don't know how many stays my old man has left in him, but Karin is definitely the person I'd want watching him when I leave!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 16 years old. I watch family and friends pets when they go on vacation at any time when they need a sitter. I am available seven days a week and offer flexible scheduling to meet your pet care needs. I also provide overnight boarding, so your pet will have a safe, comfortable, and caring place to stay while you’re away. I have a fenced backyard and one friendly dog who enjoys having canine companions to play with. If requested, I can crate your dog to help maintain their usual routine or provide a comfortable, secure space during their stay.
“Well Sadie must have had a good time she was wore out I'm sure with playing with the children I know she loves little children and dogs everything went well is expected”
“Kathryn did an excellent job taking care of our dogs while we were on vacation. Setting up the booking was super easy, all concerns and questions were addressed quickly. The communication and pictures during our time away were spot on, and put my mind at ease that our babies were happy and well cared for. The pick up was efficient and it was so nice to see how happy, relaxed and worn out from all the fun and love they received from Kathryn!”
“Our pup, Sokka, absolutely loves Ryan which is helpful since our dog has anxiety around other dogs (so kennel boarding is a very stressful experience). We really appreciate that Ryan also takes Sokka on walks and dog park visits if he's able to do so. We highly recommend Ryan for boarding!”
“Joe is such a good friend to my dog Bravery. I can tell that he really likes Bravery and looks out for him. I always know that when I leave Bravery at Joe’s he will have a great time and be safe.”
“Carly was so great with my pup! She was very welcoming to us and made me feel like Lady would be like a member of the family during her stay. She also texted me a photo that night, which was great because I was really missing my furbaby and reassured me that she was doing okay! Very flexible on pickup/dropoff as well. Will definitely work with Carly in the future!”
“Was a last minute weekend stay for my dog and quickly felt comfortable with him staying there. She shared photos of dogs playing together and was quite responsive if ever messaged.”
“Kyri did an excellent job looking after my dog, Milky. She was very attentive and responsible, and she consistently sent me pictures and videos so I could see how he was doing. It was clear he was comfortable, well cared for, and in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and would trust her again with Milky for future boardings.”
“Tara was wonderful!!! This was my first time using Rover and she was great. Tara communicated well and often and provided updates about my dogs. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my babies!”
“Bethany was wonderful! I knew Archie was in good hands and that he was being well taken care of. All the pictures she sent throughout the week made it clear he was having a great time!”
“Chili Pepper was well taken care of during our family vacation! Derek and Megan were flexible, understanding, and great communicators! I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone! I know I will be when we are away again! Thank you so so much!”
“Rachel was a godsend for my dog. He is 12 years old and going thru chemo. She went out of her way to care for him and ensure he was eating. I am so grateful for her patience and kindness.”
“As always Amber and her husband are amazing. They were particular life savers for this vacation as they were able to work around my strange pick-up/drop-off times and were flexible when our flight got delayed.”
“Hatsuki is a wonderful mommy for my kitty, Vivi. She is genuinely compassionate and a caring person for the animals who cannot talk. She gave a very comfortable home for Vivi during her stay. Thank you, Hatsuki, for all you have done to me and my kitty. Vivi said she was happy to have met you, and looking forward to meeting with you again. Many thanks for your kindness. Makiko”
“Kristin took excellent care of my dog during her stay! I got lots of updates, and Xena came home tired and happy. There was a heat wave during our stay, and Kristin was very aware and careful with outside time, and I felt super safe with Xena in her care.”

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Kathryn and her family (especially T), gave me complete peace while I was away. I received photos and updates everyday. Bean was clearly well taken care of! I highly recommend Kathryn to anyone looking for someone caring, dependable and wonderful with animals!
Karin has been amazing with Sage, me and my husband went on a 7 day trip for our honeymoon and we decided to leave Sage with Karin. We have never tried anything like this before and normally we went to a boarding facility but decided to try something new for Sage. Best decision we ever made. Numerous amounts of updates, photos and videos, a lot of reassurance, she’s flexible and understanding and she’s has been gentle and loving with Sage as well. We were worried Sage would be too much, but he fit right in. We definitely recommend her and we will 100% be coming back to her for future play dates and boarding! Thank you so much Karin!
Michelle always gives great updates, and puts my mind at ease. This was the longest I’ve had to leave my dog for (1wk) and when we picked her up she was just her happy silly self. I appreciate her taking care of my dog and providing her with love and lots of play time with her dogs!

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.
89% of West Carrollton 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 West Carrollton 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 West Carrollton 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 West Carrollton.
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 West Carrollton 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.
