“My second time using Jeffany’s services and she still did not disappoint!! My baby K had two other dogs to play with, walk with, and head to the doggy park with. I was kept posted everyday as usually and my pup came home smelling amazing with a thoughtful handmade ornament gift. It has my doggos paw print!! You are awesome Jeffany. Thank you so much for everything (:”
“Caroline and Samuel were fantastic with my dog Netty. They were flexible with pick up times and they genuinely care about your dogs well being and happiness. The updates they sent made me smile and reassured Netty was in good hands. Their dog Winnie is adorable and eager to play with your dog any chance she gets! 100% recommend booking with them! Will book again soon. Thank you for a great experience”
“Our 1.5 year old Golden has stated with Keeley 3 or 4 times and has always had a great time playing with her dogs. It puts us at ease while on vacation knowing that our dog is being looked after and having fun. Will continue to use Keeley for the foreseeable future”
“My dogs, Ozzie & Elvie, were well taken care of and spoiled by Julie & her son. They also enjoyed hanging out with their dog, Abby and being outside taking walks. Julie was great with updates and photos every day. We will definitely be back!”
“Margaret was very friendly she treated our dog like he was her own! I loved getting pictures of my dog enjoying walks and playtime with her dog! I gave very short notice but she was very accommodating and understanding. We would love to use her again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Kyra is perfect for our dog Dakota “Koti”. Koti has stayed with her twice and loves her. I think the feeling is mutual! We never want to use anybody else.”
“Simply amazing, she treated my dog like her very own, great backyard with fence for dogs to run and play. She took my dog for many walks, we received frequent picture updates. Overall, highly recommend Karin and her husband”
“Sligo had the best time playing with Sarah and Brendan’s pups all weekend! Thank you so much for taking such great care of him! We will definitely be using them again :)”
“Kelly is the absolute best! Anytime we have to go out of town, we know that our dog is in the best of hands. Constant updates and communication the entire time. We are worried that our dog is always sad to come home because she gets so spoiled staying with Kelly.”
“Stacie and Doug are great with my pug Homer and it makes me feel better dropping him off that they will take care of him and love him just like I do while I am gone!”
“Tolley and Tom took great care of Repeat. The family treated Repeat as if he was one of their own dogs. They sent lots of pictures and updates to help ease our mind. We would definitely use them again.”
“Thomas was absolutely awesome ! I am so thankful that we were able to find him. I have a 2 year old intact German shepherd and my husbands work closed on short notice for 2 weeks so we decided to take a vacation. I was scrambling to find some boarding for him but if you have a large power breed who isn’t neutered than you know it can be difficult to find places that accept them. The only boarding option I could find was a no contact facility where he would have been in a kennel the WHOLE time except for 3 30-1 hr potty breaks which were on a LARGER kennel area. Totally unacceptable to me. That’s when I started looking on Rover and was so glad to find Thomas. Not only does he care for your pet he also puts in the time and energy to exercise them which is so SO important to me. He was super flexible, gave me a ton of updates and still took Bear on walks/runs during this insane 95 degree heatwave we had. I totally trusted that he kept Bear safe during that time (walking in hot weather wise). This is a person who truly cares about animals and takes care of their physical, mental and emotional needs. I don’t know how to add pictures here but if I find out how to I will. Can’t say enough good things.”
“Eric and Polly took excellent care of my dog Griffin. They sent me several pictures and kept me up-to-date on how Griffin was doing. I know he got the attention he needed. Thank you Eric and Polly. My dog has an anxiety problem and I think he’s better suited to have someone come in and watch him in his own home.”
“Louie loves to stay with Pam and Marshall. We appreciate the updates and how well he’s cared for by them! Highly recommend and Louie will definitely be back!”
“The only issue with boarding my girls with Lynn, is that my dogs seem to suffer from postpartum depression for a couple days following their stay. You cannot find a better, more caring, surrogate dog parent for your 4 legged kids. Lots of playtime with Summer (Lynn’s girl), homemade treats, toys galore, cuddles and snuggles at will,… I could on and on… (BTW, unlike Amazon’s reviews, you can take this one to the bank!). A&J send their love to you, Lynn, and keep asking me when sre leaving town again?🙄)”
“Archna made us feel so comfortable leaving our older pup. He takes a few meds for arthritis, too, and she had no problems with giving him everything he needed. Including affection! We will use her again!”
“Summer was extremely amazing with loving on my fur baby while I was away! She was very responsive and kept me updated with tons of photos and videos. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Westlake is $45
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Westlake
If you’re looking for someone to treat your dog as nice (if not better) than you do, well Debbra is that person! She treated Biscuit like he was her own dog. She kept him on his same schedule and provided him with the long daily walks he is used to. I could tell from the pictures she provided that Biscuit was comfortable and relaxed. He was so happy when I picked him up. Debbra is truly a dog lover and I will be using her services again!
We had such a great experience with our dog sitter! Eric & Polly watched Enzo and Bentley for three nights and took amazing care of them. They sent us picture updates every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear the boys were comfortable, happy, and well cared for. It’s not always easy leaving your dogs with someone, but knowing they were in good hands made our trip so much more relaxing. We would absolutely recommend them and will definitely use them again! 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Westlake on Rover is $38.33 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 669 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Westlake. 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.
96% of Westlake 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 Westlake 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 Westlake 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 Westlake.
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 Westlake 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.
