About: Hi, I’m VJ. I work from home most of the time, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I have two dogs of my own: a 6-year-old female Bernese Mountain Dog and a medium male Goldendoodle. Both are gentle, submissive, and friendly with other dogs. My Bernese especially has a sweet “mama bear” personality and is very nurturing around other pets. My home is calm, dog-friendly, and comfortable. Pets are allowed on the furniture, and I want visiting dogs to feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family while they are here. I live in a quiet neighborhood with very little road noise, and there is a large community park close by where I can take dogs for walks, fresh air, and playtime based on their comfort level and your instructions. I’m best suited for dogs who are potty trained, friendly with other dogs, and not destructive in the home. I like to keep a peaceful environment, so I always prefer a meet-and-greet first to make sure your dog feels comfortable with me, my dogs, and the space. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I will follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any house rules you share. I’m also happy to send regular photo and message updates so you feel connected while you are away. Your dog will be treated with patience, affection, and respect in a safe home environment. I work from home most of the time, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day for potty breaks, feeding, playtime, walks, and supervision. I can give dogs plenty of attention and keep their routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. Your dog will be cared for like part of the family in a calm, dog-friendly home. I have two sweet, submissive dogs who are used to being around other pets. My Bernese has a gentle “mama bear” personality, and my Goldendoodle loves to play fetch. I have an invisible fence for my own dogs, but I do not rely on it for visiting pets. Guest dogs are supervised outdoors and taken out on leash unless we discuss and agree on a safe routine together. I always prefer a meet-and-greet first to make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe. I also like to follow each dog’s normal feeding, potty, walk, playtime, and sleep routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed and cared for while you are away.
“Deanna is the absolute best!!! She has been with my baby Cleo since she was a little baby. Deanna is so on top of communication, photo sending, training, feeding my girl amazing food…all the above, Deanna was such a pleasure. I was with Deanna for about 7 months and I have never been more grateful. Thank you for everything, we appreciate you so so much!”

“Everything went great with Marlyn. She asked a lot of questions at drop off and I felt at ease leaving Bella there. Bella seemed to have a great time and was worn out from playing with the other dogs. Will be using Marlyn for our future boards!”

“Allison is wonderful! She was very communicative before and during Oz’s stay and was serious about understanding his routines and habits. We felt great knowing he was getting her full attention for walks, snuggles, and care! Highly recommend!!”

“Karl was wonderful! Our puppy had a great time. He responds super fast and we appreciated the text updates with pictures. Will definitely be using him next time”

“Carol did such an amazing job with Ruby; they were fast friends and Ruby had a great time. It was the perfect retreat from the craziness Ruby often experiences at her usual boarding place - we’ll definitely be asking Carol to watch her again!”

“We had a great experience with Ashley Communication was excellent throughout, and they were very patient and attentive with our dog. Everything was clean and well taken care of. We're very happy with the service and would definitely recommend!”

“Nancy and Christopher did an amazing job with my puppy! He struggled being away from home for the first few nights, but they did a great job making him feel as comfortable as possible. Very responsive to messages and sent lots of cute pictures.”

“Loni and her family did a great job taking care of Millie on her first week away from us ever! Millie was super excited to come home, but it was apparent she had a lot of fun on her vacation away from us. Highly recommend.”

“This was my first time using Rover and my first time leaving Jessie with someone we didn’t know and so I was definitely a bit nervous. But Caitlin was phenomenal and just speaking with her helped ease my anxiety. She was friendly, responsive and provided me with updates that made me feel much better during Jessie’s stay. I highly recommend Caitlin to my fellow pet parents looking for a professional and caring sitter!”

“Nicholas and Emily were great! They took great care of Eddie and he was sad to leave! They sent great pictures and were very accommodating! I will for sure use them again :)”

“Ann is clearly a dog lover. She and my Pudgie were a perfect match. She took her on walks, let her nap on the couch, and sent me daily updates with photos. Hoping she can keep Pudgie again.”

“Lovie was an awesome sitter! She was super communicative, responsive, caring, and kind. She provided us with many updates and pictures during our puppy’s stay. She took her to the dog park and did activities to keep her engaged and fulfilled. She loved our dog so well while we were away!”

“I had such a wonderful experience boarding my puppy, Bane! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt confident that he was in great hands. Lindsay and her husband were incredibly kind, attentive, and clearly passionate about the animals in their care. Bane can be a little shy at first, but they made him feel right at home. I received regular updates, including photos and messages, which really helped ease my mind while I was away. It was so comforting to see him happy, relaxed, and even making some new furry friends! When I picked him up, he was in great spirits and clearly well cared for. It's such a relief to know there's a place I can trust to take care of him like family. I will definitely be bringing Bane back for future stays—thank you for treating my boy so well! 🐾”

“I cant recommend Erin enough, she is the best! When I got a new puppy I was a bit nervous about finding a sitter to continue with our routine and spend the extra time needed for a puppy, but Erin scheduled a meet & greet to learn all about Skye’s training and get to know us. Skye hit it off right away with Erin and her 2 dogs. I love that she sends updates and photos a couple of times a day so I know that she is having a blast and getting lots of attention while she’s away from home.”

“Jasmine kept Tilly at her house for a week over Thanksgiving. She sent pictures to me everyday and her family even picked out a toy to buy Tilly. We already rebooked with her!”

“Alyssa took wonderful care of Cookie! We scheduled a meet-and-greet before we went out of town to make sure our dogs got along and she was used to the environment, which went extremely well. During Cookie’s stay, Alyssa kept us regularly updated with plenty of pictures. The pickup and drop off went smoothly as well. I highly recommend Alyssa for all your dog-sitting needs!”

“She was great! Took awesome care of our dogs despite one of them having severe separation anxiety! Wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for a caring sitter.”

“Carly was amazing with our pup, Sunny! She was attentive, kind, supportive and flexible to fit her needs, and she sent us lots of updates which we loved. I would highly recommend Carly!!”

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.

I HIGHLY recommend! Abby and Stephen didn't blink when asked if they'd be able to take care of a last minute medical issue that required twice-daily medication and wound attention. They also provided frequent updates with photos and even took my doggo to get a pup cup. I'm certain my dog wouldn't have minded spending even more time with Winnie and her family. I cannot recommend them more.

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 ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Westerville on Rover is $39.93 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 968 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Westerville. About 92% of Westerville sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
