“Crystal was phenomenal! She was professional, reliable, and always quick to respond. Our pup was treated like a queen and came home happy and relaxed. We’ll definitely use her again!”
“We are so pleased we found Julie! She was so consistent with communicating and sending photos. Our girl had so much fun with her dogs (and even seemed to get along with the cat!). Needless to say, Lady come home exhausted! :)”
“Mallory was absolutely amazing with Harvey & Jack🤍 She kept me updated throughout their stay, made them feel comfortable, & treated them like her own! Harvey immediately bonded with her (which says a lot because he’s very shy), & Jack came home happy, tired, & well cared for. She was attentive, communicative, & clearly loves animals. I would absolutely trust her with my boys again & highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, & patient with dogs of all personalities & sizes!”
“We had such a wonderful experience Lynna. She took such great care of our Bella and treated her like her own. She kept us updated throughout the stay by sending pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was incredibly patient and caring—even hand-fed our little one when needed! Her two dogs were also so sweet and well-behaved, and they got along wonderfully. She even went the extra mile and did a little photoshoot for our pup, which was absolutely adorable! 🥰📸 We truly appreciate all the love, attention, and care she gave our dog. We would definitely recommend Lynna and would happily book with her again! ❤️🐾”
“This was Sidney’s first day with Karen after we had done a meet and greet. Sidney was there for the day, not an overnight this time. All went well. I think the biggest sign of a successful day is that Sidney came home, put himself to bed and just literally passed out. ? Thanks Karen… we’ll be back.”
“Jessica and David took great care of Abby! She has a lot of energy, and David spent time playing with her and keeping her entertained. They were great keeping me updated on her stay with daily texts and pictures. Will use them again.”
“I absolutely loved Aricel. She was extremely sweet and accommodating to my older pup. She was very loving and Bootz took to her well. He even got to sleep in the bed with her which he seemed to love. She sent pictures and updates daily which I greatly appreciated. I was so pleased I've already booked her for another stay.”
“Vincent was very happy with his stay, and has manifested he will not miss me if I should ever need him to stay with Odalys again. Very happy with the service and the prompt communication.”
“Stephanie and her husband were amazing! I can’t say enough good things about our experience. Our Tucker did great for the week he was with them. She was so sweet and caring and sent lots of pictures and updates. We seriously found a the best and are so grateful for them!!!”
“Brendan did amazing with our puppy! We had never left her overnight before and she was well taken care of. Brendan sent us lots of updates and I felt very comfortable leaving her with him. Duke was also a great host and playmate. Would absolutely book with him again!”
“Rachel and Seth took great care of my dog and seemed to sincerely enjoy having him. Their communication with me was great and they were also accommodating of changes in my plans. Overall it was an excellent experience for me and Cal :)”
“Shalissa was wonderful and flexible with me when I had an extenuating circumstance before our boarding. Great with communication and I felt my dog was in competent hands.”
“This was our second time booking with Jacklyn and we 100/10 recommend her services! Both of our pups (once again) were more than comfortable and loved/cared for. The moment our pups walked through her door again, they were so excited to see her and that is always reassuring. We couldn’t ask for someone better! Her updates were the best and details were always lovely. Thank you again!!”
“I needed someone last minute to watch my dog Hazel for 8 days! I was already super hesitant because I am used to boarding and have never left my dog somewhere for so long. Nancy was quick to respond and set up and meet and greet. I could tell Hazel immediately felt at home. Nancy sent honest updates and lots of pictures. My dog looked like she was having so much fun, I was almost nervous she wouldn’t want to come back home with me! I can tell Nancy and her husband showed lots of care and love to my dog. I am very happy she had such a safe and loving environment to stay in for her long stay. I highly recommend Nancy to anyone, as I will be contacting her for any future stays my dog may need.”
“Always so thankful to have a reliable and fun sitter for our sweet dog, Porter, whenever we have to go out of town. Richard and his wife always take such good care of him and he gets along great with their dog, Bruce. Highly recommend!”
“We are so happy we found Veronika! She took such good care of our pup during our vacation, sending updates and photos every evening. I’ve tried multiple Rover sitters over the years throughout Indy and Veronika is the best by far. You’ve found customers for life - please don’t ever move away! ;)”

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.
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 Kirklin 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 Kirklin 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 Kirklin.
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 Kirklin. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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 Kirklin 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.
