“Kim was amazing with Ollie! She sent photos and updates throughout the stay, so we always knew he was happy and taken care of. It made being away so much easier knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely cares about your pup.”
“Alycia went above and beyond when watching Murphy! She's an incredibly warm and lovely person who was extremely accommodating for my pet. I hope to have her watch Murphy again in the future!”
“Our dog has stayed with Elisheba and her family multiple times. We greatly appreciate their care and attention. She sends us daily updates while she is with them.”
About: Hi! I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! 🐾❤️ I’ve been pet sitting for over 14 years, and caring for animals is something I genuinely love! I know pets are family, and finding someone you trust to care for them is so important. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I offer boarding in my home, drop-in visits, and occasional house-sitting stays. Our home has a fenced-in yard, and I love giving pets plenty of attention, affection, and opportunities to play, relax, and feel at home. I have three dogs of my own—a Lab mix, a Husky mix, and a Shih Tzu—as well as two cats, so animals are a big part of our family! I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel comfortable in my care. I’m also a mom of three little ones, so we have a busy, loving household. I always want to make sure every pet is a good fit for our home and feels safe and comfortable during their stay. I’m a big believer in meet-and-greets before booking! I love giving everyone a chance to meet, get comfortable with one another, and make sure it’s a good fit for both your pet and my family. I want you to feel confident and at ease knowing who will be caring for your fur baby. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, and I want you to feel confident that they’re in caring hands. I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you can see how your babies are doing while you’re away! Whether your pet needs a cozy place to stay, a friendly face to check in on them during the day, or someone to keep them company while you’re out of town, I’d love to help. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. ❤️ Feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐶🐱💕
“Ainura was absolutely amazing! I had to find a sitter for my new puppy on very short notice and she responded super fast and accepted the job. It was my first time using the Rover app and I’m so grateful it worked out so well. She took incredible care of little Khaleesi and sent loads of photos showing her playing and having a great time for the week. I’m definitely reaching out to Ainura next time I need a sitter :)”
“Krista and her husband are AMAZING!!!! Their dog is so sweet and they all made my dog feel right at home. Krista sent pictures and updates of my dog and I loved seeing how well she was doing. My dog was in heaven with all of the attention and being allowed on the couch and bed. I was enjoying my trip knowing my dog was in such great hands. I highly recommend Krista and will definitely have my dogs stay with them again when I go out of town!!”
“Katie and her family treated Vivi like one of their own. From text messages to confirm preferences, to photos and videos of Vivi playing, it was clear that we picked the right Rover to watch our pup during vacation. Highly recommend Katie to anyone trying avoid the traditional "puppy prison" boarding options!”
“Our dogs did great here with Rachel! She took very good care of them and went above and beyond, doing simple things as brushing out our pup who was shedding a lot, all the way to helping out one of our dogs who had a little bit of reflux and getting her back to normal. Got pics every day and they looked like they had a lot of fun. Great sitter, and would definitely recommend!”
“Jenny was absolutely wonderful! Our first time using rover and she made us feel so confident that Stella was in great hands during our time away. She sent regular updates and photos every day, it was clear Stella trusted her very much!”
“Abbie was amazing! From the time we did our meet-and-greet, we knew her home would be a great fit for Kobe. She sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend. Kobe had a blast playing with her dogs! She was also very accommodating to a modified pickup time after we experienced flight delays. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Jane is wonderful with Oliver, our 4 year old labradoodle. She treats him like her own dog. She’s very loving and patient. She is easy to work with and always eager to please. Oliver is very relaxed and happy when we pick him up, unlike when we pick him up from a noisy kennel. We will be using her again and again.”
“Finn’s second time with Holly and he ran right inside when we dropped him off like it was his own house! He was so excited to be there and hang with Millie which makes us feel so good leaving him. Thanks again, Holly!”
“We had a great experience with Heather! She kept us updated and made us feel comfortable knowing Maddie was in good hands. We really appreciate her communication, patience, and care, and we will definitely be using her services again. Highly recommend!”
“Dean had the most pawlicious day ever 🐾💛 As a rescue pup parent, I’m always a little extra cautious—but wow, they made it so easy to relax. We got so many sweet photo updates and little messages throughout the day, and each one felt like a mini window into Dean’s adventure. Honestly, I think he forgot we existed for a bit 😄 He played his heart out, explored, and looked SO genuinely happy in every single picture. You could just tell he felt safe, loved, and totally at home—which is everything we could ask for. Thank you for treating our boy like your own and giving him a day full of tail wags and joy. We’ll definitely be back for more Dean-approved playdates 🐶✨”
“Patty was amazing! I can’t say enough good things about her! My Frank can be a little (a lot) temperamental but he was so good for her! She’s lovely! I’ll definitely be using her for all of my travels! Thank you Patty! 😇”
“Erin was a fantastic sitter for our girl Rose! She left daily pictures, videos and/or messages about how they were doing. We especially thank her for taking such good care of Rose when she started having problems with her skin tag. We will definitely use Erin again in the future!”
“Brendan and his family was wonderful to Axel. I felt comfortable the moment I met him. He kept me updated with pictures, which I loved. I will definelty be using him again!”
“Khala and her partner were the best sitters for my dog! My dog tends to be shy of new people, but when I picked him up he seemed so happy and comfortable around Khala. He also made a ton of new dog friends at Khala’s house and loved Khala’s cat. I was so relieved to see him so happy and relaxed throughout his stay and he will definitely be back the next time we are out of town. Additionally, my flight kept getting delayed but Khala was very flexible and was willing to work with my schedule. Thank you!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Willowville
Great guy and my dog loved him. As soon as I walked into his home, I knew my dog Loki would love it. I was nervous about him having another dog, but he was very professional and made us feel comfortable knowing that he had everything under control. I will most definitely be bringing my dog back to him when we need a sitter for Loki.
Katie was very accommodating and a great sitter for Rose. Rose was sick during her stay, Katie made sure she was comfortable, and her medication was taken. Katie provided frequent updates, and the pictures of Rose and Katie’s family playing together were super cute. Would highly recommend her!
Nina really cared about our Tyson (large senior dog) during his extended stay with her. He looked happy and relaxed in all the photos we received and we felt very confident in his safety and comfort. We can't recommend Nina enough and would absolutely book with her again knowing that Tyson would be happy to see her. Thanks Nina!
Thanks Mitch! Mitch is very thoughtful. For example, I picked up my dog Milo at noon. He purposefully did not give him lunch because some dogs get nauseous in cars. I suspect that is the case with my dog but Mitch didn't know that. On a previous occasion, there was an issue where I didn't give Mitch quite enough food for the duration of Milo's stay. Mitch was able to determine that before it became an issue and we developed a plan beforehand.
Angie is amazing! This was the first time I’ve ever used a service like this and left my dog of over 11 years with someone. Angie made me feel very comfortable and took wonderful care of my girl! I will be a repeat customer for her and I highly recommend her services ☺️

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Willowville can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Willowville 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 Willowville.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Willowville. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Willowville 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
