“My dogs are very needy and Allison & Nicholas catered to them! One dog has recently gone blind and she was carried and treated so well - making sure she knew where everything was. The other did food refusal because we were gone and they gently hand fed him - what a spoiled pup! Both dogs had wonderful outside time and were snuggled a lot. The daily pictures and videos made our hearts at ease. Thank you so much!!”

“Azure accepted my booking at the last minute. I am so happy I found her as she is located really close to me and she was phenomenal with Bella. She was so kind and caring. She also gave me updates as to how Bella was doing - that was special for me. I love that Bella was at a home rather than a kennel. I will defineitely be using her again. Thank you Azure!”

“So many pictures were provided to us while we were on vacation, and that alone put us at ease! I didn't want my doggo in a kennel at a facility, so I turned to Jennifer, and she didn't disappoint! Onyx looked so incredibly happy and enjoyed spending time with the other doggos. My fiance and I 100% recommend Jennifer and her services for anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

“Mrs Nan and her family were the perfect choice for my pup's first pet sitter. My rogue can be stand offish with new people since she was adopted right before COVID-19 start. Mrs. Nan was patient with her, loved on my girl as much as rogue allowed, encouraged her to eat when she was depressed, and checked on her through out the day when Rogue decided to hide in her crate instead of playing with Nate. I received multiple pictures and updates, and Mrs Nan was quick to answer questions on how things were going. I highly recommend using Mrs Nan, I plan to use her again.”

They even checked with us before leaving the dogs alone for a quick errand, which we really appreciated. They also have a sweet dog named Pepper, and Koji became friends with him right away. On top of that, they have a beautiful home with big backyard with plenty of space for the fur babies to roam around, play, and feel comfortable. Thank you so much, Izzy and Casey, for taking such wonderful care of Koji and Misty. We truly appreciate everything you did and wouldn't hesitate to book with you again!”

About: I have lots of experience with dogs/cats. I have been a dog groomer for close to three years but have recently decided to become a stay at home mom. I can’t imagine my life without dogs! I have one dog that is an Australian Shepard named Bryce he is 5 years old, neutered, and very friendly. We go on walks daily. We also love to play fetch. I can also offer Dog grooming or nail trim services upon request. I am currently a stay at home mom! I am home 24/7 and can let your pup outside as often as they need. I have a fenced in yard so they can roam around off leash, sniff around, and enjoy themselves. I currently have one dog named Bryce. He is a 5 year old Australian Shepherd. He is very friendly and LOVES to play. He loves cats and dog alike. We go on daily walks and play fetch everyday. I love all dogs from teacup puppies to great danes. I also have experience in grooming so If your doggy needs a bath/haircut/nail trim I could provide those services as well. I have a fenced in yard, but I always go outside with the doggies while I let them outside. My Fur baby Bryce is lovely companion and will keep your baby company. We do allow pups on our couch and bed so they can get the best snuggles and comfort while you are away.

This was the first time leaving them and the first time we met them at a meet and greet we knew they were the ones to watch our doggies. We will definitely use them again. Thank you so much Alicia for taking wonderful care of our doggies! We appreciate you both! You both are very kind!”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my ability to provide structured, attentive, and compassionate care that meets both the physical and emotional needs of dogs. I am highly attentive to routines, behavior cues, and individual temperaments, allowing me to create a calm, safe, and consistent environment for each dog in my care. My dog-sitting skills extend beyond basic supervision to include proper exercise, reinforcement of positive behavior, and close observation to ensure overall well-being. I approach every responsibility with professionalism, reliability, and clear communication, giving pet owners confidence and peace of mind that their dogs are receiving exceptional, dependable care in their absence I have a flexible schedule and am available most of the time, allowing me to provide reliable and attentive care. While I am generally free during the week, I may occasionally have other commitments on weekends, though I communicate availability clearly in advance to ensure proper planning. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every aspect of the care I provide. My upstairs apartment is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with close supervision at all times to ensure pets remain safe and comfortable. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, dietary needs, and any special instructions provided, and I maintain a consistent and structured environment to reduce stress. My community offers designated areas for walking dogs, allowing for regular exercise in a controlled and safe setting. Through attentive care, clear communication, and respect for both the pet and the owner’s expectations, I strive to create a secure, trusting, and welcoming home where pets feel comfortable and well cared for

Alexx and Tyler made us feel safe with our choice. They treated our pup, Bellatrix, as if she was their own. She even seemed hesitant to leave them after the four day weekend she spent there. They were friendly and flexible with times for both drop off and pick up. They reassured us early in our travel while also ensuring we had peace of mind on our vacation. 10 out of 10 we'll book again

Maddison took good care of our mini labradoodle Dixie in her home so we could attend a Notre Dame game. She took Dixie on a walk and sent us pictures along with updates. We will definitely book Maddison if we bring our dog to South Bend again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Butler Center home-away-from-home, 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 Butler Center.

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 Butler Center 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 , 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 .

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 IN 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.
