“Elizabeth and her husband, Josh were excellent caretakers for our pup, Huxley. He was so well cared for and ready to nap from all the fun he had once he returned home. We will reach out to them again when we need care.”
“Beth was so nice and absolutely wonderful! I love that she likes to meet the dogs ahead of time to make sure they are a right fit for her and her adorable sweet dog. She sent lots of pictures and updates and will definitely book again with her!”
“Kelly was great! Charlie said he loved staying there and playing with her dogs. She even had all his stuff ready and helped me carry it all out to the car when I picked him up. We will definitely use her again!”
“I give Stephen and Angela 5 stars. They were very accommodating and answered all my questions. Since I was new to Rover I was worried about leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know but they made me feel comfortable. I would definitely use them again”
“Megan took great care of my dog and was great about sharing pictures and letting me know he was doing good while I was out of town. Sounded like he got along great with her dog as well. Definitely recommend her if you need someone to look after your dog.”
“Ebony was great with my girl Stella! She made her feel at home. Ebony sent me daily pics of Stella curled up next to her. I truly felt that Ebony and her family were great with Stella. I would absolutely leave Stella with her again! Thank you for being so amazing with Stella!”
“Lori is amazing. Our dogs are our life and she made sure to take care of them with love and care. I’m so glad she took them to the farm to run and play. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: For me, pet sitting on Rover is so much more than a job—it is a true passion rooted in 30 years of dedicated animal care experience. Over the decades, I have had the absolute joy of looking after all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats and small animals. I know firsthand that every single pet is a cherished family member with their own unique personality and routine. Because of this lifelong background, I am incredibly adaptable; I know exactly how to keep up with a high-energy puppy, gently comfort a shy senior cat, or carefully manage specialized feeding schedules for your pets. I treat every animal in my care exactly how I would want my own pets to be treated: with endless patience, safety, and deep affection. Leaving a pet can be stressful for owners, so I always leverage my decades of experience to prioritize clear communication, reliability, and daily updates that give families complete peace of mind. I am fully confident in my ability to connect with and care for any type of pet, and I am dedicated to making sure both you and your companion feel completely safe, comfortable, and happy. I currently work as a handy-man so my hours are flexible enough to need your pets every needs from stopping by and playing multiple times a day to sitting with them all day and night. I also have an animal friend home with pleanty of play area and 1 acre of fenced in yard for them to play. My 3 dogs and 3 cats welcome any animal into the household with open paws. My gentle giant st. Bernard and German shepherd are rough enough to play tug of war with the biggest of dogs but gentle enough to cuddle and protect a 5lb teacup Yorkie.
“Nissa took such wonderful care of our dogs! They had so much fun and I loved all the thoughtful updates while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing they were in great hands!”
“Broke was an excellent choice for our stay! She was incredibly communicative, sending us regular pictures and being flexible when we needed to extend our stay. We highly recommend her!”
“Sharon took very good care of my dog Bear for the week I was gone and Wesley was a great friend for her as well. She is very understanding and flexible when I got delayed due to a snowstorm. I can’t recommend her enough as someone who will take care of your fur babies as her own and leave you with no worries!”
“Ciara is awesome! She started watching Hudson after his sister passed. She makes sure to walk him and give him his exercise. She also sends a lot of pictures so you feel more at ease about leaving your dog. Hudson loves Ciara and loves to snuggle with her. She has taken extra special care of him and shows him lots of attention”
“5 stars is an understatement. I wish I can give more. She was great, with agreeing to a greet and meet. Sending daily pictures, and understanding his routine. This was the first time we left our Whiskey with anyone that was not a friend or family, and I couldn’t have chosen a better sitter then Val. I’m forever grateful for caring and spoiling my boy, Val. Fun fact: Val, was practicing her Spanish with Whiskey 🤭”
“Jian was the answer to our prayers. Not only did she take excellent care of Louis she constantly updated us with sweet texts and pictures. I couldn’t have found anyone better. I would be very happy to have her care for Louis again. I honestly cannot say enough great things about her. She was excellent”
“Mariah took great care of Charlie. We’re very pleased, and we’ll keep her in mind for future needs. She provided frequent updates with pictures, and he came home to us well-loved and happy.”
“Jamie, who goes by Lynn, was absolutely the perfect match for my dog. She is patient, kind and loving. She kept him the entire day and he was one happy dog when I picked him up. Lynn wanted to know all about him and any instructions for the day at drop off and she followed them perfectly. She has a fenced yard and they spent a lot of time out there. It is about a 20 minute drive for me and there are plenty of sitters closer, but I will continue to make the drive, because it doesn’t get any better than her.”
“Lynne watched our little girl for 4 days and 5 nights while we were on a trip. She texted me and sent me pics of my dog to let me know how things were going. I would recommend Lynne to anyone.”
“Gabriella took great care of my older dog. Winnie seem d very hapoy (although tired) after her stay at Gabreilla’s. Her dog Yeti is really good with other dogs and became buddies with my dog that don’t used to being around other animals. Highly recommend Gabreilla for any pet sitting needs”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Floyds Knobs
A couple of weeks ago, I had to leave town for two weeks due to work, and I had my sitter at the time cancel the day before I was set to leave town. I had never used Rover before, but I found Melissa and Jonathan on the app at the last minute and decided to give it a try. Despite the short notice, they immediately agreed to a meet-and-greet that same night before I had to leave. They were incredibly kind, welcoming, and understanding from the very beginning. Their space was spacious, comfortable, and perfect for my pet’s needs. Throughout the entire stay, they kept in touch with me on a daily basis by sending updates and pictures, and they were always quick to let me know if they had any concerns. I am very grateful that I was able to trust them with my pet, especially on such short notice and I would happily have them care for my pet again in the future. They are a hardworking, wonderful, and loving family, and I highly recommend them!
Allison & Kenny were great! They made drop off & pick up so easy & stress-free. Gigi loved her stay with their family & must have had a great time, she was worn out when we got her home, lol! They were easy to communicate with, from the meet & greet to the drop off & pick up, sent me lots of pictures & updates. I would most DEFINITELY feel great about leaving Gigi in their care again, 100%. Thank you so much!

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.
97% of sitters in Floyds Knobs 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 Floyds Knobs 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 Floyds Knobs.
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.

You and your Floyds Knobs 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.
