“Mattey, my dog, loves Stephanie! His new best friends are Ryder & Max, her dogs. Stephanie made our trip wonderful because she let me know how Mattey was doing and sent lots of pictures!”
“Alicia went above and beyond to take care of our yorkies while we were gone. They gave her a bit of trouble not wanting to go to the bathroom outside but she was amazing in asking questions and communicating every day how they were doing! She sent tons of pictures so we could see how much they were enjoying their stay. She was incredibly kind and I could tell really loves caring for animals! Would definitely book with Alicia again 😁”

“Debbie was very good with Rocket! We met ahead of time so he could meet her and her dog Oscar and I could tell he’d be in good hands. She sent lots of pictures of him and kept us updated on what they were up to (playing, going to the park, on walks…). SO much better than a kennel/pet lodge where he’d have spent 90% of the time alone in a room.”
“My original sitter canceled the morning before my trip. I was frantically trying to find a new sitter and Kathleen let me book quickly without hesitation. I am so thankful for that! I recieved messages and pictures while away and I could tell Myles had a great time and was well taken care of. Thanks again!!”
“Josh was great and Arnie did really well with them. It was our first time leaving him and trying this service out, and Josh made us very comfortable from the beginning at the meet and greet. He kept us updated over the weekend and sent lots of pictures. And you could tell he made it a point to interact with Arnie as much as he could. We will definitely use him again.”
About: I have had pets my whole life of all shapes and sizes and I am currently a stay at home mom who is available everyday! I have to kiddos and a cat who are all familiar with dogs and other cats so they are gentle and enthusiastic to play. My background is caretaking for my family, cooking, cleaning, and I even worked at an animal shelter. Your pets would get my undivided attention, all of their needs met and more when they spend time with me! Pet care is something that comes automatic for me along with caring for my children. Everyone gets what they need before anything else is done for the day! I love taking them for walks throughout the day and I live near a park so I am always trying to spend time outside. When we are lounging inside we enjoy playing all together and hanging out in the living room. Pets that come into my home are treated like family here. I am available for boarding and day sitting so when your pets come here they will have a place to come and socialize and play all day and night. I am always home so they will always be supervised and I can give you plenty of updates on how their time with us is going. If your pet needs medications or special care that is something that I am more than comfortable with, anything to help them feel more at home with me!
“What a great dog sitter. From meet and greet to extending a few hours upon our return to pick up. The communication, pictures, updates, and the love and care for our Chewy was a blessing to us. Thank you for making us feel comfortable leaving our senior dog with you. Extra special care was needed and Mckayla was willing to do it all.”
“We had a great experience with Lauren. She got right back to us when we needed a sitter right away. (My son brought his dog with him for a visit from out of town. She was a puppy and a big dog. Jordan is a Yorkie and was agitated due to the large dog who just wanted to play. ) We were able to take him over right away. She made him feel comfortable right away and sent us pictures during his visit to assure us he was doing well. I would highly recommend her for anyone who needs a sitter!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life! Most recently I had a pitbull for 12 years and 2 cats for 15+. Sadly, all aged and passed away the past two years (I got them all young around the same time, bad idea since they tend to pass away so close to each other). Before I got my last dog, I fostered pitbulls who were good with cats for a couple years. My home is open and free for them to roam, and I’m well-equipped for big pitties trying to yank me around my large yard! My pitty had incontinence before he passed so I also am prepared for messes and spills. My home is ready and equipped for large dogs and for cats, since I kept everything from my last pets as I await being able to get my own again. I’ve also pet-sat for many of my friends when they leave town a when their dogs got along with mine! Now that I have none, I can offer solo or multiple dogs at once depending on your preference. I work part time, mostly from home. Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays I have a few hours of evening commitments but that’s it! I can usually come let animals out or feed them in the morning, afternoon, and evenings before bed unless I stay in your house, and then I can be there most of the day. I care for animals in my home as if they were mine! We wake up and have breakfast, go outside, and hangout around the house while I work. Lots of snuggles and pets! I let animals sleep in my bed if they want. If it’s your home, I’ll be able to meet the needs of your pet as described. I can crate if that’s desired, I have a large crate for large dogs!

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Winesburg 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 Winesburg 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 Winesburg.
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 Winesburg. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% 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 Winesburg 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.
