“It’s the second time we leave our 2 dogs with Liz Marie and her family. They take such a good care of them. She keeps me updated daily with pictures and messages. We’ve tried another person once when she wasn’t available and it was not the same, really. We totally recommend her ❤️”
“We had a great experience with Leslie & her family! It was our first time leaving Furley for any extended period of time and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. Leslie sent daily updates and photos so we never had to worry about how he was doing. He loved playing with Leslie's dog Shiloh so much that I was afraid he wasn't going to want to come home! I would definitely use Leslie again if the need arises & I would certainly recommend her to others. ”
“Lauren took great care of Zuri! She has a great space for dogs, handled medications/other needs well, was flexible with a last-minute booking, and sent frequent updates and pictures. We will definitely be back in the future!”
“For the first time ever, I had to leave my dog son for more than a day and I was definitely very uncertain on this whole you know . I couldn’t have asked for a better family to watch over my best friend and care for him like they did. Had me at ease while I was gone the whole time if you’re looking for the same reassurance, I was looking no further!”
“Stockton had such a great time with Maolin, and he has major separation issues. She made him feel comfortable instantly and took him on a lot of awesome adventures! Would definitely book again!”
“Ellen did such an amazing job with my senior rescue girl! She has some health issues and is a little shy, so I'm always worried about leaving her for the weekend with someone new, but I could tell she felt comfortable with Ellen right away. Communication was great—Ellen sent photos and updates and made me feel a LOT less guilty about leaving her. I honestly could not have had a better experience, which is saying something coming from a slightly neurotic mom of a special needs dog :) I'll definitely be booking Ellen again in the future!”
“My dog had a wonderful stay with Carly! She was flexible with drop off and pick up times, took him for several long walks, played with him, and sent great photo/video updates! She even wrote him a little report card 🥹 She went above and beyond and my pup can’t wait to visit her again! Thank you so much!”
“Megan & Jay were wonderful! Easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures. They took great care of our pup! She looks forward to staying with them again!”
“Michelle and Nicholas were SO responsive and took great care of Bru! Bru enjoyed her time spent with their dog and family. We were provided with a daily update along with pictures. Overall, we were very pleased with our experience with them!”
“Lillibet, our golden, came home happy and tired - a good sign that she was very active and had lots of fun! Abby and her husband were accommodating and sent updates to keep tabs on what she was up to while we were out of town. Great first experience on Rover!”
“I felt comfortable with Cameo right away and knew my pup was in good hands. I received updates and good reports on how things were going for the week. I would definitely use Cameo again in the future!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Alexandria was really wonderful with my dog Henry! She was great at communicating both before and during my dog's stay. Henry seemed to have a great time and got along well with her sweet dogs!”
“My wife just spent a two weeks in the hospital and Will was a great help in minding our dogs. The dogs were happy to hang out with their buddy Pumpkin and Will took great care of them. The photos and regular updates were most appreciated.”
“Pam did an AMAZING job with our dog, Green Bean! We have never booked a dog sitter before (besides friends and family) and were nervous about how our chihuahua would do, especially considering he has some issues with reactivity and anxiety. Pam (and her husband) put us completely at ease and loved our little guy like he was their own! He obviously adored them. Pam sent plenty of good updates and photos and made drop off and pick up super easy. We can't thank her enough!”
“Karl is SO SPECTACULAR. Your dog is safe with Karl. He is a great person who will take good care of your baby. Give Karl lots of money because he is totally that great.”
“Jasmine did a great job with my pup. He had so much fun with her and her family! She was very communicative and was flexible as we were edtablishing drop-off & pick-up times.”
“Maia took wonderful care of Lady while we were away. She kept us updated, treated her like family, and we came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”

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! 😊
Zach is an amazing sitter! I was nervous about finding a sitter for my dog Riley since he can be very anxious but Zach made him feel right at home. Riley loved him so much to the point he was giving Zach tons of face kisses, which he rarely does with people he doesn’t know well. Zach also gave me lots of updates which gave me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend using Zach as a sitter!
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 ❤️
Great experience! Janelle was super responsive and communicative throughout. I could tell from all the pictures that my dog, Panda, had a lot of fun with her. Her photos and texts showed she really got to know our pet's personality and quirks over the visit. Janelle made the whole process super easy and stress free. We'll definitely be back.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Westerville on Rover is $39.96 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 953 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.
