“Toya was a wonderful sitter. We had to shift our boarding days last minute from Fri-Mon to Thurs-Sun last minute and she was able to accommodate without a problem. She was also very responsive and would reply back to any questions or check-ins within minutes. We especially loved her family environment which I feel was very comforting to our Brick. He seemed very comfortable when he first arrived and upon pick-up from his 3 night stay. We will definitely use Toya’s services again!”
“Amia,Joshua and family have been nothing but great to my baby Barry. He loves spending time over there, I definitely recommend them. They are the best fit for your fur baby 🙂”
“Monica and Daniel are very wonderful people who take excellent care of our furry baby! Right off the bat when we first met them we got an excellent first impression. They are very warm and friendly and were great with our pet! They play with her and take her for walks. When we came home after our weekend away our pet was relaxed and happy. During our time away, they sent us photos and updates of our baby which was really nice ? I look forward to booking them again in the future!! Even my 7 y.o. son likes them too and told me that we should leave our pet again with them next time. Thanks for doing such a great job, keep up the great work!! ❤”
“I had Barbara watch my almost 7 year old cat for 3 nights and 4 days. She made me feel comfortable and made sure my cat was taken care of while I was away. Barbara was sweet and let my cat outside the bedroom. Her litter was clean and followed the feeding instructions. I definitely recommend her”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so grateful I found Juliana. I was so nervous leaving my baby in the care of anyone for the first time on an extended stay. Juliana took such good care of my Benito! Her communication was great and you can tell she truly is an animal lover. I would definitely recommend her! Thank you for caring for my Benito! 🫶🏽🐈⬛”
“Alexis was absolutely wonderful. We scheduled a meet&greet before hand so we were both comfortable and answered any questions I had. Alexis was fast and reliable with communication—answering all my messages very quickly. She gave us plenty of updates throughout the weekend with pictures as well. My boy has bad separation anxiety and Alexis was wonderful with ensuring he wasn’t alone and was comfortable the whole time. Alexis is a wonderful resource for us and we plan to use her again in the future! Thank you so much!”
“Alfie told me he had a great time at Eleanor’s. He loved running around the fenced in yard and he loved the choice of bedding- a new bed every night! We were very happy that Eleanor sent us pictures all the time with upbeat updates. We will definitely leave Alfie with Eleanor again.”
“Laura was very accommodating most especially when I asked for an additional night. She would give me an update about how my dogter was doing and she even sent me a photo of my dogter. Thank you Laura for taking good care of Bimby. Till next time. 🌹”
“Kassia and Flash were great hosts for Rockett for a week long stay while I was out of town for work. Kassia was quick to respond and shared updates with me. I highly recommend Kassia for boarding or daycare!”
“Arianna is an excellent dog sitter!! She took great care of my Izzy. My Izzy is a shy and nervous girl and Arianna made sure to keep her calm and comfortable. Arianna also gave frequent updates and pictures. I would highly recommend letting Arianna watch your dog. She is great !!!”
“Amazing dog sitter! Our pooch was so happy when we picked her up, and David sent plenty of photos and updates and was readily accessible to contact - will definitely be using again, I highly recommend!”
“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“Sue & David we’re amazing from beginning to end! We had a call, meet & greet and they watched our dog for a week. They provided updates with pictures and not once did we have to worry while on vacation. They even let our little guy sleep with them. Do yourself a favor and hire them! You won’t regret it.”
“This was my first time sending my baby with someone out of family and friends and what a wonderful experience!! Doris was kind and accommodating with my schedule. My furry baby fell in love with her, her baby and the space!! He didn't want to leave, even if he was happy to see me...he wanted US to stay. He has been moping all day from the hour car ride home to seeing his bed, toys, yard and Daddy...he really enjoyed himself there. I will ALWAYS book with Doris if we have to go anywhere. The only negative...I chose someone that was quite a distance from me...I would love to do weekly play dates!! Thank you for your kindness, pictures and updates Doris, we all appreciate it!!!”
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and absolutely love having them around. We have a decent sized fenced-in yard and one very friendly doodle who loves having other dogs around. We don’t have children, so your pup will get plenty of attention and a calm, dog-friendly environment. For your dog’s comfort and safety, we only accept one family’s dog(s) at a time, so they’ll have our full attention without having to share the space with multiple unfamiliar dogs. Someone will also be home regularly, and your pup will never be alone for more than 4 hours at a time. We’d love to make your dog feel right at home while you’re away! My fiancé and I both work full time, but our schedules make pet care very manageable. He is a physical therapist and works a varied/shifting schedule, while I work just 5 minutes from home and come home during my lunch break. Because of this, our dog is never alone for more than about 4 hours during the week. On weekends, we are home most of the time and rarely leave him alone for long. This routine allows us to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day while still maintaining our normal work schedules. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. In my home, dogs have access to a fully fenced-in yard and plenty of supervised time for play, exercise, and attention. I only care for one family’s dog(s) at a time, which allows me to give them individualized attention and avoid a crowded or stressful environment. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. Someone will always be around frequently, and your dog will never be left alone for more than 4 hours. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and loving home away from home! Our dog is NOT crated, however if your dog prefers a crate/safe space, we are happy to provide that!
“Bob & Judy were so kind and loving to our baby boy Duncan, he is pretty attached to us, but he did so well with them. She spoiled him so much I was not sure he was going to come back home with us! LOL Thank you both so much!”
“Alisha was great with our 7 yr old coonhound, Beau!! Highly recommend. We had a situation where we needed to book an overnight boarding last minute and she was extremely accommodating and helpful. Our pup got along great with her and her pets. We could tell he was very comfortable there. She kept us updated throughout his visit, which is always greatly appreciated. We’ll definitely be rebooking when in the area :) thanks Alisha!!”
“Shanie was so accommodating to our last minute booking which definitely helped with our stress. It was also so helpful of her to not only pick up our dogs (for free!!) but to also then drop them off! We have a newborn so we really appreciated the convenience of that! She sent us a lot of updates with pictures and we will definitely use her in the future for our fur babies!!”

Daryl was absolutely amazing with Jellybean this week. My cat is extraordinarily shy in new environments, and Daryl was super patient, keeping me up to date with pictures and texts on his progress to eventually leave his crate and getting comfortable with her family. She even built a fort so that he could have a safe space to hide and provided him a quiet space to retreat to if he was anxious. I could not ask for a better sitter for him. Thanks again!
We had a great experience with Serena and her family while our dog, Stella, stayed with them for eight days. From the start, it was clear Stella was in a warm and welcoming environment, and she quickly settled right in. Serena and her family were incredibly kind and gracious, and it really showed in how happy and comfortable Stella was during her stay. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing she was being well cared for and treated like part of the family. One of the highlights was that Stella even came home having learned a few new tricks! It’s obvious that Serena goes above and beyond, not just looking after the dogs but actually spending quality time with them. We’re very grateful for the care Stella received and wouldn’t hesitate to book with Serena again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!

There are 664 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hobart. About 93% of Hobart sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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.
