“Colleen was great, and accommodating of a last minute request for sitting. I received daily updates with photos, and my dog seemed very happy. No issues noted, and will definitely use her again - on a monthly basis if possible!”
“Our two pups had a wonderful time over a long weekend with Tara's and Peter's family! Thank you, and thanks for your flexibility on scheduling when our travel plans were disrupted!”
“Rachel was amazing to work with. She was very responsive and sent pictures of my dogs throughout their stay, she took them on walks, and I felt truly at ease with them at her house. Will definitely use again.”
“Our dog Bear had an amazing time with Daniel and Rachel! He loved playing with their dogs, and he even got to enjoy some homemade doggy birthday cake during his stay! Daniel and Rachel were great about sending us photos, and they let us change his pick up time when we came home from our trip early. We will definitely use them for dog sitting in the future!”
“Karin took great care of our anxious dog, Chester. He seems to have a great time and she took him for great walks. Chester came home happy and tired. Will definitely book with her again.”
“I had always used a commercial service for boarding, so was nervous about trying this. But after my dog and I met Cheryl, that anxiety went away. Immediately I could see how positively Reka reacted to her. Cheryl kept me up to date with daily messages and a photo. This was the first time I was not worried about boarding and this was the first time Reka did not have stomach issues after getting her picked up. Everything went perfect as Cheryl is very kind, understanding and patient. I highly recommend her. I will definitely use her every time I need someone to watch Reka.”
“Kyra was fantastic taking care of my mom's dog when she was in the hospital unexpectedly. He is a rescue and very skittish, but Kyra made him feel comfortable and right at home. She also sent photos and updates every day. Highly recommend Kyra for your furry family members!”
“My dog, Lola, enjoyed Thanksgiving week with Samantha and I’ve already booked the Christmas holiday week for her. That’s high praise for Samantha’s positive style & work ethics. ***** 5 stars!”
“Dana was great. She did everything we asked and communicated well. She walked our dog 3 times a day and sent plenty of pictures to let us know how she was doing throughout her stay. We also had some medicine that we needed applied and she did that as well. We are going on another trip in a few weeks and we are planning on using her again.”
“Katlyn did a wonderful job watching my dog. She was quick to respond to messages, sent lots of picture updates and it was evident she truly cares about animals. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Buddy enjoyed his time with Nicole and her pup's. The large backyard provided an awesome place for them to run around and tire themselves out in this colder weather. Will definitely use Nicole in the future!”
“I was so happy Mike and his wife agreed to watch Romeo so I didn’t have to board him! He seemed to have a great time and was very well cared for. Highly recommend Mike and his wife.”
“Jason was great. I had to change my plans a couple times and he worked with me. Gave me updates on how the dog was doing. He sent me pics several times and put me at ease. Great experience!”
“So friendly, accommodating and helped to stay in touch with my little girl while I was away on work travel! Their dog and my baby became great friends! A loving home and made me feel ok while away from my puppy! ❤️?”
“Summer was awesome! She sent pictures, responded quickly and cared for my pup with lots of love. I plan to refer her to friends/family and I will be booking again in the future.”
“Hayley was so easy to work with and took great care of our dog! She provided plenty of updates and pictures throughout the stay! Our dog and hers got along perfectly. We will absolutely be using Hayley's services again in the future!”
“They helped me out TONS by watching my Shih Tzu for about 6 days. I’ve never used Rover before, so I was a little hesitant at first. Everything went smooth and they were flexible on drop off & pickup times since we drove all day. My dog seemed extremely comfortable @ pickup and we got several pics throughout the week! I would definitely book with them again.”
“Angel took great care of my nervous dog, Charlie! This is his second stay with her, and we will definitely use Angel’s services again. She is thoughtful and caring and communicative throughout the stay. Thank you!”
“Aspen was so great. I was nervous about using rover and leaving my dog with a stranger, but Aspen was amazing. She was very friendly and welcoming when I dropped my dog off; she told me that she would be to take Effie on a few walks throughout the day and that she might even take her up to the lake. She sent me daily pictures and updates about the walks she would take with my dog and just overall how my dog was doing. It was nice to get the updates/pictures while I was gone for the week and put me more at ease with leaving her. There was a portion of Effie’s stay that another dog was going to be there and Aspen was very accommodating and wanted to make sure it was ok with me that there was another dog there (it was), but she even offered to go to my home on those days to let Effie out if it was not. I would definitely recommend Aspen and would use her again in the future :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Willoughby
Maria is truly wonderful, and I highly, highly recommend booking with her! She went above and beyond to take amazing care of our dogs. At first, we were nervous about the idea of leaving them for the first time ever, but we were able to enjoy our vacation because we knew our girls were in really good hands. From our meet and greet to daily updates and photos, to Maria’s attention to detail and professionalism, we had the best experience ever working with her. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our babies!

There are 639 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Willoughby. About 93% of Willoughby 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.
