“We had an absolutely amazing experience with Christina! From start to finish, communication was fantastic—always quick to respond and providing regular updates with fun pictures that made us feel completely at ease. The care and attention given to our dog were outstanding, and it was clear they treated Gunner like family. Their kids were also wonderful helpers, adding to the warm and loving environment. On top of all that, the price was great, making this an incredible value. Just a genuinely sweet and trustworthy person—we couldn’t have asked for a better dog-sitting experience. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had dogs and cats all my life. I am willing to keep special needs pets and am able to give medication. I am open to discussing any special requirements your pet might have. I live at home with my mom and this is my only job. I am free to give your pet all the love and attention they need. I have a lead in our yard for potty time and live near a dog park for fun and exercise. We will take walks, having brushing time to bond, and have lots of play time. I do have a dog kennel available inside and will have food and water bowls for your pup. We do have cats, so please make sure your dog is cat friendly.
“Yelena is a blessing and I’m glad my neighbor referred Rover to me. Noah loves her and her puppies and he got along with the other dogs that were in her care. 10/10 recommends. I’ve already booked our next stay. Thanks Yelena😃”

“Aricel provided excellent care for our 15 year old dog who has some anxiety issues. She sent pictures daily and kept us posted on how our dog was doing. We will definitely use Aricel’s services again the next time we travel.”
About: I’m obsessed with fur babies! Let me watch yours so I can be happy 24/7. Former puppy owner do I know how crazy that it. Very experienced as I’ve always loved with animals. Very open availability because my day job allows me to choose my own schedule. And I’m very flexible and willing to accommodate to your needs. Right now I can only do house/pet sitting at your place because I do have roommates. I’m not entirely confident he have someone else’s pets around them for reliability issues.
“My pup Lizzie and I could not recommend Adrienne more highly! Adrienne keeps me updated with pictures while I’m away, and Lizzie clearly loves and trusts Adrienne implicitly. It’s a wonderful thing to pick up a happy and relaxed dog after being away.”
“Wish I could give these ladies 100 stars! In a nut shell, Megan and Lois are a blessing! It s so nice to get away and know your baby is happy too! Thank you both so much ! So much better than a noisy kennel.”

“OMG!! Julie is sooooo amazing! She sent us videos of our fur baby interacting with her grandchildren and other dogs she was caring for. I was so worried having to be away from Sonic for over a week, but Julie turned my worrying into happiness seeing Sonic enjoying himself. Thank you sooo much! Sonic will definitely be back! ❤️”

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.

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.
