“Very pleased working with Katelin. With unforeseen changes to our calendar, Katelin worked with us to make the plan work. Evie was well cared for. We look forward to our next visit.”
“My senior girl had a great stay with Christina! She treated her like her own and took exceptional care of her in my opinion. I would absolutely use her service again and recommend her to anyone looking for quality boarding in the area!”
“Victoria was great with Penny! She watched our ~1 year old ~ 7 pound Cavapoo while we were here for a football game. Friday evening - Sunday morning. Victoria was very friendly and responsive! Penny felt right at home as soon as we showed her around Victorias place. Victoria went above and beyond for Penny and we’d definitely recommend her / plan to work with her again next time we bring Penny for a Football weekend. Penny got along well with Victoria’s dog Koco too. Thank you Victoria!”
“There are dog sitters, and then there are people who truly become part of your dog's life. For quite a while now, my weekends have slowly become my weekdays—early mornings, long shifts, and the quiet rhythm of doing what needs to be done. In the midst of all of that, there is always Paige. And as any dog owner understands, our dogs are never "just dogs." They are love, trust, comfort, and pieces of our hearts that walk beside us through life. That is why I cannot say enough wonderful things about these incredible puppy sitters. From the very beginning, Paige was not simply watched over—she was welcomed, understood, and loved. Their care extends far beyond food, potty breaks, and supervision. They genuinely invest themselves in the dogs they care for, and it shows in every interaction, every update, and every photo they send. Even when Paige wasn't feeling her best, they met her with extra comfort, special food, patience, and care, giving me a peace of mind that is difficult to put into words. What I appreciate most is not only how deeply they care for her, but how much they help her grow. Through gentle guidance, structure, socialization, and opportunities to learn from mature, well-behaved dogs, Paige continues to become calmer, more confident, and more comfortable in herself. Their home provides so much more than pet sitting. It provides safety, growth, companionship, encouragement, and love. As someone whose life often requires being in many places at once, there is a profound comfort in knowing that while I am caring for others, someone else is caring for Paige with the same attentiveness and devotion I would hope to give her myself. That kind of peace is rare. Paige and I are grateful beyond words—not simply because they care for her so well, but because they care for her with their whole hearts. Thank you, Jennifer and Larry W., for the extraordinary impact you have made. The comfort, reassurance, care, wisdom, and generosity you have shared have left a lasting imprint that will be carried with profound gratitude. Some gifts cannot be measured by what is given, but by what is felt, and for that, we will always be thankful.”
“Paul and Kelly (and kids) did a great job caring for our puppies. When we arrived for pickup, our puppies were happy and energetic. Paul and Kelly were very receptive to following our dogs’ schedules. We will definitely take them back to Paul, Kelly and the kids!”
“Josie was wonderful! She sent regular updates and pictures of our rambunctious little pooch while we were out of town, and I fully trusted that Boomer was in responsible and caring hands while we were away - it appeared he had a blast at their house based on the pictures I received!! We will definitely book with Josie again in the future :)”
“Kayla was awesome! She took care of our puppy like he was her own! Vedder had so much fun playing with the other dogs and her home was well equipped for his stay! I hope she will let him come stay again! ?”
About: I have worked in the veterinary field for 18 years. I love being around animals. Know how to care for pets medically as well as personally. I am a stay at home mom and have more time now that my kids are older and at school. I love caring for animals I have a fenced in back yard at home. I know how to properly administer medications and injections if needed. I understand strict diets. I know pets are a part of your family so their care if very important to me.
About: Hi there!! I love both dogs and cats, and look forward to taking care of them. I've had many pets growing up. Habló Español también. As of right now I am available and flexible on time as school is out. I have been trying to find a second job, and would much rather prefer this to be my 2nd job as I enjoy going on runs with my dog and hanging out with my furbabies (I also have 2 cats). Why not make money while having fun and meeting new furbabies? I live near downtown Elkhart (heading towards Bristol). I live in a very safe and quiet neighborhood where there is plenty of space to walk, run, and enjoy a large field of grass (if allowed to be off leash).
“Valeria was great! I felt really comfortable leaving Meeko with her for a day, and it was nice that she was able to be flexible about times. She sent updates throughout the day as well!”

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.
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.
96% of sitters in Inwood 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 Inwood 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 Inwood.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Inwood. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Inwood 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.
