“Valerie was great. She sent pics and text me about how my dogs were doing. I was short on time when dropping them off and she basically did everything with introducing them to her dog. I am always nervous to leave my dogs with a new person but I would definitely use Valerie again.”
“I am delighted to have entrusted my dog to Ms. Karen. He thoroughly enjoyed his time, evident from the photos she kindly shared. Ms. Karen provided excellent care, and I would certainly choose her services again. Grateful for your attention, Ms. Karen!”
“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!”
“Annie and Adam were amazing. Peanut had a great time hanging out with them and I can tell she got plenty of play time. They are so nice and easy going. Thank you!”
“Ronnie did a great job with our dog! I could tell how much she and her family cared for him during his stay. Excellent communication while from her from booking through pickup, and was great to see pictures of him playing during his stay.”
“This is the second year I have used Samantha to watch Nala. Nala seems to have a good time running and playing. I will continue to use her because I know my dog is in good hands.”
“Natasha was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Beans! From the very beginning, she was kind, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure Beans was happy and comfortable. We loved getting updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that Beans was well cared for and received plenty of attention and love. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would happily book Natasha again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you, Natasha, for taking such amazing care of Beans! 🐾💕”
“This was our first time using Amy; we went on a short overnight trip. Amy gave us three updates in the time we were away. She also responded quickly when I let her know we were unexpectedly able to pick Zetta up a couple hours earlier than planned. Zetta seemed happy and Amy and her son Eli both seemed taken with her - and Zetta seemed comfortable with them. Amy also seemed conscientious about following the written instructions I’d left for her re: Zetta’s exercise limitations and medication.”
“Jameelah was an absolute delight to work with. She very clearly loved caring for our dog, Freddie. She sent lots of adorable pictures, took him on walks, and kept in close contact. We will absolutely use her again and appreciate everything she did to watch our little guy while we were gone.”
“Becky and Cam are so attentive and make sure that my little guy gets tons of attention, enjoys time in the yard, gets out and about for good walks, and is generally super well cared for. Their pups Merlyn and Fern are so welcoming and playful and it makes me feel good leaving my pup with all of them when I’m away. I highly recommend using their services!”
“Bennie had an amazing time with Candie and Axel. It’s all he’s talked about since we picked him up. He talked about the walks, the wrestling, the cuddling, and so much more. He is just going on and on about them both. Bennie highly recommends Candie and Axel. He would have typed this himself except he, well you know…doesn’t have thumbs and kept dropping the phone. Candie has a great backyard and sent us lots of pics, which I really appreciate.”
“We had Yvette watch over our Cavapoo Toby for the day while we were at the wedding at Indianapolis and she was amazing. She sents us updates and Toby come home happy, tired and relaxed.highly recommend and will be using her again if we visiting to Indiana.”
“Amy provided great care and attention to Bailey. I received daily updates and photos on her activities. I would highly recommend Amy for Boarding. I will schedule Amy on future boarding services.”
“Can't recommend enough! My dog is a senior dog that needs some special medication and attention and Bowen has been so kind and sweet towards him and tend to his needs. ❤️”
“Dayana did an amazing job with our two dogs while we were away for four days. She sent daily updates with videos. Our dogs had a lot of fun playing with her dog too!”
“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 :)”
“Samantha is the best! This is the 4th time she has watched our puppy. Teddy had a bit of an upset tummy when we dropped him off. She updated us often with how he was doing throughout his stay. We knew he was in good hands. He is all better now. Samantha was also flexible with our pickup time when we arrived home a little later than planned. I highly recommend Samantha.”

Jessica and her partner are awesome. They’ve watched my boys twice now. And every single time I feel at ease when they’re with her. She’s very responsive and I get lots of pics of my boys when I’m away. She loves on them and they love her back! I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is just like me,very nervous to leave their fur babies with just anyone. She’s great!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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.
