“I recently had the pleasure of having Kara take care of my dog, Tanjiro, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. I highly recommend Kara to anyone in need of a reliable and loving dog sitter!”

“Janay and her family took such great care of our fur baby! I don't think she wanted to come home. I am so grateful we were able to relax on vacation knowing our baby was in good hands. Janey sent plenty of pics and remained in communication our whole stay”

“Rajesh was an incredible dog sitter! From the moment I left my pup, I knew he was in great hands. He treated him like family and went above and beyond by sending daily updates with photos and videos. It meant so much to see how happy and well cared for my dog was. I would 100% book with him again!”


“Scheduling with Kristen was a breeze! She was very accommodating and flexible with the pick up and drop off times. I was a little nervous with this being my first time ever boarding my dog but she made it very easy on me by providing periodic updates. The fact that she also has 2 bichons and that he had a blast definitely puts me in the returning customer category!”

“Shalissa was wonderful and flexible with me when I had an extenuating circumstance before our boarding. Great with communication and I felt my dog was in competent hands.”

“Yelena is a caring, and experienced dog sitter. My dog Lily has been recovering from knee surgery, and Yelena was very mindful of how my dog was interacting with the other dogs in her care, so she didn't reinjure her knee; and she ensured my anxious pup was comfortable when she spend the night. She sent me updates and pictures too, so I knew how Lily was doing! Yelena is great!”


“Alexis was fantastic with Bentley! He can be anxious when away from home, but he always seemed relaxed and happy in the daily updates I would get. He even let Alexis trim his nails, which he seldom does with anyone!”

“Candie was awesome! I was so nervous to leave my pups and she made it such an easy experience. She sent me pictures every day, updated me, she made my nerves calm a lot. For sure taking my pups to her again!”


“The best dog sitter we’ve ever had! Our dog felt at home immediately and wagged his tail continually. He felt safe and in good hands. She asked questions to find out how we wanted things done. She let him sit on her lap which he loves. So glad to have found her.”


“This was the first time we’ve ever used a sitter for our pups, so we were naturally nervous how they were going to do. Little Man isn’t the easiest pup to warm up to new people, but Veronika and her family were able to find a way to make him comfortable for the two-night stay. Veronika lives super close to the Ruoff Music Center, which made it super convenient for the show we were in town to see. We will 100% use her again if we’re in town again!”

“Aricel was absolutely amazing! She loved our Cooper like family! She sent us pictures daily of their activities. Aricel even taught our fur baby a new trick during his week stay! Cooper felt right at home with Aricel and we had no worries while on vacation. Would absolutely recommend Aricel to anyone and will definitely book again for our next trip!”

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.
“Nancy and her husband took the excellent care of our dog Patty! They sent us daily updates and pictures to bring us additional comfort while we were a country away! Highly recommend Nancy to anyone that loves their dog and wants a good experience for your dog and yourself while taking a vacation!”


“Heather was absolutely wonderful with Leo while we were away on our trip to Punta Cana! She took such great care of him and gave us complete peace of mind knowing he was in loving and capable hands. She was great at keeping us posted, and clearly treated Leo like he was her own. We came home to a happy and well-cared-for pup. We’re so grateful to Heather and would absolutely trust her with Leo again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, responsible, and trustworthy to look after their dog. Thank you, Heather!”

“Kristan is amazing! Our pup loved staying with her and enjoyed the backyard. She sent regular updates and pics, and our pup didn’t want to leave! Highly recommend Kristan - especially for long trips.”

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.
