“First time leaving my little furbaby. I was a little nervous about it but Alexis sent me daily updates and pictures. If I ever need to leave again I will gladly get ahold of Critter Corner Pet Care. I was able to enjoy my time away and not worry.Great people and service.”
“Great communication and so sweet. I wasn’t worried about Jester the entire time I was out of town. He had a blast playing with his new friends! I definitely will be using Elissa again!”
“We loved the care Azure gave to our 2 German Shorthairs! The text updates and pictures we got throughout our vacation were so appreciated! We would highly recommend her services!”
“Violet always has the best time when she goes to Agnathas home! She comes back exhausted, from all the play time she gets in while there! Agnatha loves to spoil Violet as well, she snuggles her and lets her on the sofa! I was worried Violet wouldn’t want to come back home with us. It is a nice relief knowing our pup is getting the best care while we are away!”
“Emily was amazing with watching Whiskey. She updated me with pictures throughout the entire stay and was quick to respond. Her fur babies and Whiskey all got along wonderfully as well and loved all running and playing in her fenced in backyard.I highly recommend Emily and her household for hosting a stay for your loved one. Will definitely be going through Emily for any future visits to Fort Wayne in the future.”
“My precious pup stayed at Millie’s for a few days (this is his 2nd time staying at Millie’s) and it was just as wonderful as the first time he stayed. I highly recommend Millie! It was really nice knowing my dog was in such good hands w Millie and her family while I was away. Thanks again Millie and Millie’s wonderful family!”
“Mindi's gentle spirit was a perfect fit for Ozzy. He was very happy when picked up and seemed to enjoy his walks and time with Mindi. She kept in touch by sending pictures of Ozzy and asked questions about how best to care for him. I will gladly reach out to Mindi again the next time we need someone to watch Ozzy.”
“Our dog has never stayed with anyone other than family or friends before and I was quite nervous about leaving him with someone I didn’t know. That is until I met Nancy. From the very start of our meet and greet, I knew that she and her husband would treat Duffy as their very own. They are genuine dog people! She sent us many pictures of him every day and it was obvious that he enjoyed his time with them and their dogs. I was able to enjoy my time away without a single worry!”
“Wonderful and attentive care givers for my senior dog. I received daily updates, they were perfect! We were afraid she wouldn’t want to come home, she received so much love and attention!”
“5 stars is not enough !! My dog had the best care here - we got pictures every day, they have a big fenced in back yard and are just the sweetest couple !! I don’t think one could find a better pet sitter.”
“Michelle was the absolute best! Our girl had so much fun staying with her! The house was beautiful, clean, and spacious. Our dog was allowed to sleep on furniture and in the bed just like at home. She followed our care instructions perfectly and loved her just as much as we do. I’m so happy that she stayed with Michelle while we traveled!”
“We knew they were a good fit from our first meeting. Carter and Mindy treated JJ as their own! They gave us pictures and reports of his stay. He obviously was happy to be with them. We will not hesitate to call on them again!”
“I have never left my dogs before and was very nervous about it. But Stephanie was amazing!!! She sent me pictures and updated me and I never felt more comfortable while on vacation. She’s truly a gem and animal lover. I would 100% recommend.”
“Christine did a fantastic job with my dogos they were happy and joyful. The pictures she sent throughout the time ahead had them where great . Im glad my dogs had fun and I would definitely return to her in the future.”

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 Farmer 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 Farmer.
<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 Farmer 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 OH 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.
