“Meeko stayed with Jennifer for the first time last week and we were so happy with our experience. She has a big beautiful family so there is no shortage of love given to your pet. But between her own dogs and others boarding, Meeko had the best time playing with all of them and Jennifer sent plenty of photos and updates. We will absolutely use her services again I highly recommend her!”

“Goldie, being a rescue, is a really anxious and apprehensive dog. Lydia was awesome with her, she has the expertise (being a foster for a rescue) to make the dog feel comfortable and safe. Goldie was really spoiled in her stay, we also ran into a delay in our trip and Lydia was awesome and understanding. I totally recommend her for sitting your dog!!”

“Kayla provided excellent dog boarding services. We received texts and photos to keep us informed of how our dog was doing. She understands dogs and has a system to keep them apart if they don't get along with hers. We knew our 'Teddy' loved staying there when we picked him up. Will definitely the next time we're passing through the area.”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced, compassionate pet sitter who truly believes every animal deserves to be treated like family. 🐾 I’ve been a pet owner my entire life and have spent the past 3 years working professionally as a pet sitter through an established pet-care company. I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, hamsters, snakes, skunks, and more. I absolutely love animals of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities—including exotic pets and farm animals! 🏡 Dog Boarding in My Home I offer boarding in my home for dogs under 40 pounds. Your dog will be welcomed into a loving, pet-friendly home where they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and cuddles. I have two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and six cats, so my home is truly an animal-loving environment. Because of my resident pets, I want to make sure every boarding guest is comfortable around other animals and is a good fit for our household. I’m happy to discuss your dog’s personality, routines, and needs ahead of time to make sure everyone has a safe and enjoyable stay. I do not crate pets unless that is your preference or part of their normal routine. 🐾 Care in Your Home — Dogs of Any Size & All Animals For dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting in your home, I’m happy to care for dogs of any size, as well as cats and other animals. Whether you have a tiny puppy, a large dog, multiple pets, or a variety of animals, I can provide loving, dependable care tailored to their individual needs and routines. As someone who has used professional pet-sitting services myself, I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of love while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pets feel happy and cared for—whether they’re staying in their own home and routine or enjoying a vacation at my home. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, kittens, seniors, and pets with special needs. I’m also experienced with administering both oral medications and injections. You’ll receive daily updates (or more frequently if you prefer), including photos, so you never have to wonder how your babies are doing. For your added peace of mind, I carry my own pet-sitting insurance. I’m also a non-smoker and non-drinker. Whether you have one dog, a house full of cats, an exotic pet, or a whole farm of animals, I’d love the opportunity to care for them! ❤️ Please feel free to reach out with any questions about me, my services, or my rates. I’d love to meet you and your pets! 🐾 Flexible, At-Home Pet Care Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to give your pets plenty of love, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My flexible work schedule allows me to adjust my hours around your pets’ needs, whether they’re staying in their own home or boarding with me in my home. When your dog stays with me, they won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles, and attention throughout the day, while still allowing them to relax and feel comfortable in a home environment. For pets I care for in your home, I can work around their normal routine and provide the individualized care they’re accustomed to. Whether your pet needs regular walks, medication, playtime, extra potty breaks, or simply someone nearby for companionship, my flexible schedule allows me to be there for them. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for—whether they’re staying in their own home or enjoying a stay at mine.❤️ 🐾 Caring for Your Pets in My Home or Yours Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, my priority is always their safety, comfort, and happiness. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so they receive personalized care and plenty of love and attention. I’m experienced with administering both oral medications and injections, and I’m comfortable following specific instructions to help keep your pet’s routine consistent while you’re away. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, I’m also happy to help with the little things that give you extra peace of mind, including bringing in your mail, watering plants, taking out the garbage, and keeping your home looking lived-in. Most importantly, your pets will receive plenty of companionship, affection, playtime, and attention. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your pets are being cared for with the same love and attention I would want for my own. ❤️

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 West Elkton 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 West Elkton.

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 Elkton 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.
