“Mallory was absolutely amazing with Harvey & Jack🤍 She kept me updated throughout their stay, made them feel comfortable, & treated them like her own! Harvey immediately bonded with her (which says a lot because he’s very shy), & Jack came home happy, tired, & well cared for. She was attentive, communicative, & clearly loves animals. I would absolutely trust her with my boys again & highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, & patient with dogs of all personalities & sizes!”
“Amy provided great care and attention to Bailey. I received daily updates and photos on her activities. I would highly recommend Amy for Boarding. I will schedule Amy on future boarding services.”
“Bailey was amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bogey. She kept us updated throughout his stay, sent plenty of pictures, and made us feel completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. She was very easy to communicate with, reliable, and trustworthy. Bailey will definitely be our first choice the next time we need a sitter. 10/10 — we would recommend her to any of our friends and family!”

I would absolutely book with her again!”

About: I'm an animal lover and proud dog owner who understands how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member. I currently have one friendly dog (Great Dane) and have experience caring for friends' dogs in my home. I love providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel at home while their owners are away. I am a stay at home mom who has a very flexible schedule, which allows me to cater to your needs and give your dog plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pup enjoys playing, going for walks, or hanging with me while I do house chores, I'll make sure they receive personalized care based on their needs and routine. Your pup will be my top priority during their stay. I know how much peace of mind matters when you're away, so I'll provide regular updates and photos to keep you connected with your pet. My goal is to make every stay a positive experience for both you and your dog! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and spend much of my time at home. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, feeding, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. As a dog owner myself, caring for pets is already part of my everyday life. I understand the importance of maintaining a dog's normal routine and will do my best to keep them comfortable and happy while you're away. Whether your pup enjoys active play, relaxing companionship, or extra snuggles, I'll make sure they receive the personalized care and attention they deserve. I strive to provide every dog with a safe, comfortable, and loving home environment while their family is away. Before each stay, I ask owners to complete a detailed questionnaire about their dog's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, personality, sleeping arrangements, medical needs, and any special instructions. This helps me provide care that is as close as possible to what your dog is used to at home. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. Safety is my top priority, and all outdoor activities are closely monitored.
“Tyler did a great job caring for our dog Ernie! He was kind, timely, and communicative. We are so appreciative he was able to accommodate our (sometimes particular) dog. I would recommend his services to anyone! Thank you Tyler :)”
“Lynna is an excellent dog sitter. She sent numerous pictures while sitting for my dog Bella. She even sent me a photo shot that she did with Bella. It was just adorable. She suggested a different treat for Bella that she enjoyed. I was very comfortable leaving my dog with Lynna.”
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life, from cats to dogs. Six years ago, I welcomed my dog, Oakley, and raising him showed me just how much I love dogs too. I’m patient, calm, and comfortable with all personalities—from playful pups to independent or shy cats. Over the past year, I’ve gained extra experience helping care for dogs through Rover. Your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and reliable care while you’re away. I work full-time (Mon–Fri, 9–5), so my availability is best for early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I offer drop-ins and walks outside of work hours, limited weekday daycare, and boarding for pets comfortable with a standard workday routine. I’m always happy to discuss schedules and special needs! My apartment community offers a secure, well-maintained dog park and multiple walking trails that my dog, Oakley, enjoys regularly. These provide great opportunities for safe exercise and enrichment. Indoors, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space with plenty of toys and supervised playtime. I always prioritize safety, closely monitor interactions, and follow each pet’s individual routine and comfort level.
“Karen is so kind and was so extremely patient with our Peach. Peach has a lot of separation anxiety, and Karen was awesome in dealing with that. Karen really treats your pup like her own. We got lots of detailed updates and pictures. We will definitely use Karen again.”
“My dog had lots of fun and seemed to be well taken care of. She had friends to play with, and was pretty sad when we left! You could just tell she wasn't ready to leave. I got nightly updates and they handled her very well.”
“Maureen is an amazing sitter! She took wonderful care of my dog. She sent many pictures and reassured my pup was in great hands. She truly cares about all your dog’s needs and makes sure to ask questions beforehand.”

There are 936 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Carmel. About 91% of Carmel 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. 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.
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 IN 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.
