“Julie was incredible with our little guy, Rocko, and we feel such comfort knowing we’ve found our forever dog sitter. My husband planned a very last-minute trip to Texas for his work conference over spring break, so finding someone we could trust on short notice was especially important. I always have a lot of anxiety leaving Rocko with anyone because he’s so special to me—he’s truly my emotional support animal. He sleeps in our bed every night, so it means a lot to me that whoever cares for him is willing to provide that same level of comfort. Julie reassured me that he would receive the same love and care he’s accustomed to at home. I’ve never truly been able to relax on vacation, but this time was different. I’m so grateful for all the photo updates she sent—they really helped ease my mind. Julie also took away the stress of coordinating drop-off and pick-up. She was incredibly accommodating, even bringing Rocko back as late as possible when our flight was delayed. I would recommend her to anyone. I truly believe she and her family treat every animal in their care with genuine love and attention.”
“Kylie was an amazing sitter. My cats almost didn’t want to leave! She sent pictures with updates which kept my mind at ease. Will definitely be using her again when visiting family :)”
“Gabriel is an outstanding host. He was very attentive, from the beginning, and took very good care of Luna throughout her stay with him. I was extremely satisfied with his service.”
“Brendan was great. I dropped off my dog at his home. It was clean and he was very pleasant. His golden retriever was about the same size as my lab. He sent a pic daily. No other dogs were boarding. Very pleased.”
“Bethany was the most welcoming and confident host for our 12 yo poodle mix. Our dog has struggled with anxiety for years, so I was excited to see how accepting he was of being dropped off in a new-to-him environment. Bethany’s energy was perfect for his temperament, and I feel lucky to have found her for future visits. She tended to his needs, and even though he had a couple accidents- due to nerves or aging - she took this in gracious stride. We received photos and updates that made our trip away from him feel seamless. We highly recommend her, and will book with Bethany anytime she is available.”
“Yelena immediately started sending pictures and updates on my pooches and continuously sent them throughout their stay. My one dog was having allergy issues affecting his paws and she was able to wipe them down and correct some marking behaviors he was displaying. They seem to get a lot of time outdoors and were able to roam about inside and could choose to go into crates. When my travel plans were delayed, she was quite accommodating and I really appreciate that.”
“Nancy and her husband took such amazing care of Barley. They kept him active and loved on him as much as we do. We highly recommend them and will contact them in the future.”
“Jonathan was amazing! Our dog is young and very high energy and I felt safe leaving her with a very capable sitter and dog trainer! Also he sent videos and updates and she loved it there! Thank you JC, for taking such good care of our baby girl! We will definitely book again!”
“Christopher took great care of our cat. It was very easy to coordinate the schedule with him. He sent regular updates and shared photos with us. He also administered medicine to our cat in a timely manner. Overall, I felt very comfortable and at ease with my cat being in safe hands while I am away. Will definitely book with him again!”
“Great communication!!! Leo had a great time spending the weekend with Seygourney, Eric, and their dog James. I received lots of updates including photos and a video. Would definitely recommend!”
“Lynna spoiled our two golden doodles… so much so, I’m surprised they came home 😂 Lynna’s communication was excellent. She answered questions before I asked. One of my dogs needed medication, no issue all was great. Looking forward to dropping the girls off with her again.”
“Our dog had a great time spending the week with Samantha and her family. We got daily updates and videos, and our dog had a BLAST. We are already planning to use her again!”
“Paige was wonderful with Max and so sweet! We loved seeing daily pictures of him being part of the family just like at home. We will definitely check with Paige next time we travel! ❤️”
“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.”
“Brook was fantastic with Stella and Louie, each with their own unique personality. Especially with Louie, who is sometimes scared with new people, she made the introduction so easy! She also kept us well-informed with frequent photo updates and adorable videos of her kids playing fetch with the pups. This was the longest we’d ever been away from our dogs, but we felt completely at ease knowing they were in Brook’s care. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Zula had so much fun staying at Leta’s home and playing with her fur family. I received pictures and video every day with updates. It was as if Leta had known Zula for years. She was accurate in her interpretation of Zula’s fear of storms and watched over her carefully. Leta noticed Zulas love for water so she set up a pool in the yard for Zula to enjoy. I want to give a 5+ rating for the personal loving care the family gave our pup.”
“Crystal and her family took amazing care of Maiya and we felt that our puppy was not only taken great care of but became a part of their family while we were gone. She kept us posted and shared pictures so we could see our pup. I would highly recommend.”
“Sharon was awesome, she took good care of my dogs and was really flexible when I had to adjust my schedule due to a missed flight. I definitely recommend her.”
“Mae and I love Mary! She gives me updates and sends lots of pictures while I’m away. Mae can be a pretty anxious pup, but she settled right in. Mary learns the ins and outs of each pup that stays with her, and she really works to make them comfortable. I completely trust Mary with my Mae.”

Kylie was awesome! Our dog was a rescue and can be hesitant around new people but the minute he saw Kylie, he acted like he had known her his whole. She sent us updates to let us know he was enjoying his stay which made us feel less guilty about vacationing without him. He spends his days lounging on the couch at home so going to a kennel would have been extremely difficult. Kylie allowed him to continue his pampered lifestyle. We will definitely be using Kylie’s services again. Thank you so much Kylie!

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.
99% of sitters in Fortville 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 Fortville 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 Fortville.
<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 Fortville 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.
