“Our dog had a little ‘vacation’ of her own at Sarah’s while we went on vacation. . .Sarah gave frequent photos and spoiled her to death, she’s the best!! Can’t wait to use her again!”
“We were blessed to find Victoria and her sweet family to love our two furry girls while we were away for a whole week. Leaving them with someone I did not know was very stressful. She settled my fears by staying in touch daily and sending pictures. When we picked them up, I could completely see the girls had been loved dearly while I was away. I will absolutely call on Victoria if we need a sitter in the future. XOXO”
“Destinee was great! She communicated well and kept us updated with pictures. Kenai had a great time over there and got along with their dogs as well! Would 100% book again and recommend other to also.”
“I can’t recommend her enough! She was so sweet and kept me updated the entire time with tons of pictures and messages. Cooper had an absolute blast at her house, especially playing with her dog. It made me feel so comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Mary was great. My dog enjoyed herself and playing with other pets. Mary sent pictures daily along with status updates. I will be definitely rebook her in the near future. Thank you Mary for everything!”
“Waffles and Dobby had a great time and had amazing care. Ashley, Mike, and the Kids treated our pups like family. This was Dobby’s first time away from us and they did great with him. Waffles and Dobby got lots of play time and lots of love. They sent plenty of photos and gave updates a couple times a day. Will definitely be using them next time we need a sitter.”
“Savanna did an amazing job taking care of our kitten! She was very accommodating to his needs and ours--meeting us first and discussing all the details, feeding him as often as he needed at his age. We got pictures and videos of him while we were on our trip. He was in great hands!”
“Bella is a repeat guest with Crystal, mostly because I know she lives as good or better than at home! The whole family loves on her and make sure she is well taken care of. Will definitely continue to book! KC”
“Christine did a wonderful job with our Cavapoo, Lily! She sent pictures to keep us updated at multiple points during our trip and was always quick to respond. Christine gave lots of snuggles and attention to our pup which we truly appreciate. We would love to work with her again if the need arises.”
About: I had a small dog growing up, I lived with my roommates small dog for a year, and I pet sit (overnight at my house) for my friend’s Yorkie often. I am an active walker and have a yard. I live alone with no kids or other pets. I am looking to bring some reliability and loving care for your pet! I work full time Monday-Friday 15 minutes from my home, so I can come home during my lunch hour, but I work from home Tuesdays and Fridays usually. I am available for daily walks after 5pm, sitting/boarding Thursdays-Sundays. I have a clean and pet friendly 3 bedroom home and neighborhood. I have a backyard and walk daily. I can crate if needed. I will take care of all needs instructed by owners.
“Nichole and her family make my dog feel right at home and I am stress free while away because of it. My dog is tuckered in the best way after spending a week with them. There is a lot of communication and photo updates, which is always appreciated. Even if it is a little out of the way, it is so worth it.”
“Would definitely use her again. Our dog was well taken care of the entire time we were gone. We got pictures and updates while we were gone. The most important thing was we returned to a happy pup. I would definitely recommend using Janet.”
“I do not have enough wonderful things to say about Tilmer and his family! He had fantastic communication, and photos everyday with an update! I felt like my pup truly fit into their family and was so well loved over her week stay! Next time I go out of town I won’t have to even think about where my fur baby will stay, Tilmer!!”
“Rachel and Seth were great with our two dogs over the weekend. They were happy when we picked them up! They have a perfect location with a great yard for playing and neighborhood for walks. Will for sure use them again!”
“Jessica and David took great care of Mocha. They communicated well, sent us lovely photos of our pooch during her stay, and treated her to a walk, car ride and pup cup. They are true dog people! Absolutely would book them again.”
“Claudia did an excellent job taking care of Teo and giving him a lot of love! 💕 she always sent us photos, videos and updates of how he was. Without a doubt we will repeat! 🤗🤎”
“Leta and her wonderful family took great care of Theo. I received daily pictures and updates and they went above and beyond to make him comfortable. I was able to focus on work knowing my baby was in good hands. They have so much set up for play and stimulation throughout the day. He really enjoyed time with their pets, which is a huge plus for me. I’d absolutely recommend them and will look to them first any time Theo need’s a sitter.”

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 Clayton 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 Clayton.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Clayton 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.
