“Gabby was INCREDIBLE! We left our two dogs with her while we had a baby and felt so reassured that they were very well taken care of! She sent many updates and pictures, took them for walks, and played with them so much! We will absolutely be using her in the future for all our trips! 5/5 highly recommend!!”
“Leslie was great with my dog during our 5 day vacation. My dog was not happy about being separated from his people and his home. He whined, paced and scratched at the doors the first night and Leslie even slept on the couch with him to help put him at ease. She let him acclimate at his own pace and was very patient. He did eventually settle in and start enjoying his time with her family. It was nice to know that he was in a safe and loving space while we were away and for that I am grateful. I would definitely recommend Leslie when it comes to caring for your furry family members.”
“Carol watched my high anxiety dog and did a great job. My dog is a little escape artist from her kennel and Carol was so patient and willing to constantly problem solve. We were so grateful that Carol was so flexible and compassionate to the situation. We would absolutely use her again (and get ourselves a new kennel!)”
“Emily sent lots of pictures to let us know how Simba’s stay was going. He tends to be anxious when we are away. But he seemed to be quite relaxed and happy at Emily’s place.”
“I am so happy I chose Zach to watch my little finfin. He's was very caring, loving, and attentive to my little fin. Zach was very friendly and listened to all my concerns and care instructions. Also, he provided me with continuous updates and pictures of my finfin. He lives in a house with a fenced in back yard, which was a plus. In addition, he has two amazing, loving little dogs that kept my finfin company while I was away! I absolutely recommend Zach to watch your ? dog!”
“Sally was an amazing and very knowledgeable sitter for blue! Even after I had some horrendous travel delays she was super understanding and helpful. Blue truly couldn’t have been in a better home while I was away, I do not have enough good things to say, we will be back!”
“Liliana did an amazing job taking care of our 9 year old dog! She kept us updated with how Molly was doing and sent us daily photos. We will definitely be booking again with her in the future!”
“John, Shannon and their family took such good care of my pup while I was in vacation. They sent pictures and videos all throughout which was so nice. Crew was in such good hands. I could just tell how much fun he had while he was there. This family made it so much easier on me to leave my dog for a week and im so thankful to them and the love they showed my baby Crew.”
“Halina and Theodor took such good care of our dog while we were away for a couple weeks. Our dog was very happy and comfortable being there. I would highly recommend choosing them to watch your pet. We will definitely reach out to them again the next time our dog needs a sitter.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly love caring for them! I’ve had dogs my whole life and am currently a proud cat stepdad. I’ll provide your pet with attentive, personalized care and a comfortable, welcoming stay while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for—and to give you peace of mind until you’re back together. I'm currently working from home with a lot of flexibility to walk or plays with your pet. I am currently available around the clock to board. I have a fenced in yard, and would also be able to take dogs outside on a leash with full supervision. I am open to board at my house, or house sit if preferred.
“Lauren and her family took Doug in as if he was their own. I recieved updates and plenty of pictures of Doug playing with their puppy Cinder, who is an absolute sweetheart. There is absolutely no doubt that I will be booking with Lauren and her family again.”
About: I’m on a work assignment and miss my two dogs at home. Would love to have some furry friends to keep me company and go on walks with. I grew up with a dog and have always had one around. From puppy training to seniors. I’m flexible with being a sitter during the week or weekends. I work full time Monday through Friday however I would be able to come home midday as needed. Otherwise it’s just me and I can spend my time with your favorite 4 legged friend. I have a 2 story apartment and would take daily walks with them. It’s just me and no other pets so they would get 1:1 attention. I will abide by whatever rules may apply to keep your pet on their routine. I do however love to snuggle and pets are welcome on my furniture.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Westerville
Oh my goodness - I couldn’t have picked anyone better to have watched my little guy while I was gone. They were available for me at short notice, were super accommodating, and sent updates with videos and pictures throughout his stay. I would highly recommend them if you want your dog to be treated like family while you are away - you couldn’t ask for better!!
Lovie was amazing with Roxie! She was super communicative throughout the stay and sent plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Most importantly, Roxie absolutely loved her! I would definitely recommend Lovie and would happily book with her again.
Rose (Ashley Rose) did an AMAZING job with Hope's first overnight experience! Rose is so attentive to Hope, and notices right away what she may need or want. Hope is a rescue, and she is very timid and shy, but she did GREAT on her first overnight stay, thanks to Rose's attentive care. I cannot thank Rose enough for taking such good care of my baby!
Leslie watched our 2 dogs for 1 week this summer and i could not have felt more comfortable. Leslie is very thorough in her process and extremely tentative to monitoring the dogs and their behaviors to make sure they are comfortable. She sent us pictures and videos everyday and gave us updates on what they did. We will for sure be using Leslie again for future boarding needs.
Tyra took great care of Rocky! She was always responsive, kept me updated throughout his stay, and regularly sent photos and videos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Rocky had a great time playing with her dogs and came home happy and relaxed. It was clear that he was well cared for and got plenty of attention. I would definitely book with Tyra again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Repeat customer! My pup feels right at home with Jerad and Sarah. I really appreciate the frequent photo updates, their flexibility with scheduling, and the care they show while she's in their home. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy dog sitters.
We had a wonderful experience with Sarah! Our pups came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. We were especially nervous about leaving our new rescue, but Sarah’s frequent updates and photos completely put our minds at ease. It was such a relief to see them settling in so well. We can’t recommend her enough! 😊
Olivia and Josh were absolutely amazing with Cookie! They kept us updated with pictures, and consistently let my partner and I know how she was doing throughout the stay. We could tell Cookie was comfortable and happy with them the entire twelve days they watched her, which is always what you want out of a pet sitter. We would always recommend trusting Olivia and Josh with your fur baby ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Westerville on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 950 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Westerville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
94% of Westerville 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 Westerville 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 Westerville 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 Westerville.
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 Westerville 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.
