“Ernie didn’t skip a beat while with Bethany. I appreciate that she was flexible with a schedule that kept changing due to emergency. Sweet family and furry friends .”
“Joshua was great from start to finish. He was flexible and accommodating, sent lots of updates, and Luna took to him immediately. We will absolutely rebook with him for future needs and are very happy to have had the chance to work with him!”
“Lynna spoiled our two golden doodles… so much so, I’m surprised they came home 😂 Lynna’s communication was excellent. She answered questions before I asked. One of my dogs needed medication, no issue all was great. Looking forward to dropping the girls off with her again.”
“Best rover experience so far! We rebooked with Mallory and will rebook again. We love her flexibility, reliability and amazing updates. Our little guy loves his time with her. He’s truly treated like a king with Mallory.”
“Great communication!!! Leo had a great time spending the weekend with Seygourney, Eric, and their dog James. I received lots of updates including photos and a video. Would definitely recommend!”
“Amy has a beautiful home where she watched our dog for a week while we were out of town. Our dog can sometimes be timid of new places/faces, but not with Amy. She took great care of him and we saw this in the photo updates she shared. She works from home so your dog almost always has someone to keep them company. We can’t thank Amy enough. Absolutely, we plan to use her again. (This was our second time using her)”
“My dog Kobe had a great experience for 4 days being taken care by Rajesh. Words cannot describe how happy we are and now my dog is missing Rajesh and wants to go back.”
“He has been amazing! I recently got assigned a job in this area and I was so stressed out trying to find someone who can keep my dog overnight. He has stayed with him for a few nights and I will be continuing to use him while this job lasts! He is great with my dog and my dog gets so excited when we pull up to the house for drop off!”
“We just got back from a 4 day getaway and our first time ever leaving our 5 month old puppy anywhere! Veronika was SO great with him! She sent updates and pictures daily. I could tell instantly from meeting her that she loves what she does and truly will care for your fur baby! We’ll definitely schedule with her in the future. ??”
“Jane took amazing care of our 10 month old puppy, and her dog was a great playmate. I felt she cared for our pup as if she were her own. Each evening she’d send a detailed update and several photos and even videos of our happy pup. This resulted in the most worry-free arrangement we could have asked for. Great communication, reliable and kind interaction all around. Very grateful and we highly recommend Jane!”
“Thank you! Always appreciate the care you give Jolene on her visits. Communication is always great and I am confident that Jolene enjoys her time as well!”
“Mary and her husband were terrific! They made me feel very comfortable leaving my boxer. I received daily updates and photos. I highly recommend Mary for your dog sitting. ”
“Ashley was exceptional. She recently watched our 2 dogs and one of them had a medical issue while she was with Ashley. Ashley knew exactly what to do and got the issue resolved before we even returned. I was so impressed. I would not hesitate in recommending Ashley to anyone that I know and because she took such awesome care of our girls, she will definitely be our first choice the next time our dogs need a sitter. 5 stars PLUS!”
“We left our Dalmatian, Gracie, with Precious and Thomas for a full week while we were on a family vacation to North Carolina, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, they were wonderful. Gracie was clearly well cared for—she was happy, healthy, well fed, and in great spirits when we picked her up. It gave us real peace of mind to know she was in such capable and loving hands while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Precious and Thomas to anyone looking for responsible and caring pet sitters. They treated Gracie like family, and we are so grateful!”
“I had travel plans all squared away and our usual sitter had an emergency and couldnt take care of our dog. Tammy was so fast in responding and took great care of our little one. I will definitly request Tammy's services for my next boarding. She is courteous, responsive and accomidating, and gets a five stars from me.”
“A+++++ pet sitter! Jenna did a phenomenal job caring for my elderly terrier. She was incredibly attentive, thorough, and thoughtful in everything she did. It was obvious from the start that she is a true dog lover and genuinely cares about the pets entrusted to her. Having an older dog comes with some extra worries, but Jenna’s attention to detail gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Jenna pet sit again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and trustworthy! She also sent some great pics that I saved on my phone.”

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 Clare 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 Clare 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 Clare.
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 Clare. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 Clare 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 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.
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.
