“Gabriel took such great care of my dogs. They were very happy when I picked them up. I think they were spoiled while there. He sent daily photos or videos. I will definitely keep him in mind next time we need a sitter.”
“Gnocchi came home a bit tuckered out. She got to run around Christopher’s back yard!!! We got to see videos and pictures of her stay. Will book again, when we get to have time away.”
“Bethany was fantastic with Sadie, and I will absolutely use her again. She was kept me well informed of how Sadie was doing the whole time, with photos and commentary. She was very flexible when my travel plans changed. Sadie felt very comfortable at her house and enjoyed the cuddles and walks. I highly recommend!”
“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! 🐾💕”
“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.”
“Melissa was awesome! She took such good care of Pacey while we were on our trip, and treated him like one of the family! She sent us pictures and messages to let us know how our boy was doing! I hope our baby can stay with her again this summer!!”
“My pup was very loved and pampered while staying with Jennifer. She took her for walks, made sure she was eating and always had water, let her outside to play, even turned on my dog's favorite TV show when she was bored. I will absolutely be booking Jennifer again soon! Thanks!”
“Candie was awesome! I was so nervous to leave my pups and she made it such an easy experience. She sent me pictures every day, updated me, she made my nerves calm a lot. For sure taking my pups to her again!”
“Kelvin was amazing!!! So this is my first time using the app I was very nervous at first leaving my boy behind but Kelvin made the experience great! I was trying not to overwhelm myself and him since it was my first time. He kept me updated with pictures and would check in with me in the morning and the night time just to ease my nerves. But i definitely recommend Kelvin!”
“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.”
“Well, my puppy was very happy when we picked her up and exhausted, which is what I wanted. It was hard for me not being able to physically see where the dogs hang out but they have so many good reviews, and they sent me pictures which was awesome. And again my pup was very happy when I picked her up we’re gonna give it another try thanks again.”
“Our dog Odin had another excellent stay with Rachel and Seth. Super easy communication and booking, and very accommodating when we needed to update Odin's stay when our travel plans shifted. Leaving Odin with Rachel and Seth gives us a piece of mind that he is well taken care of, and better yet, has a great time, especially with squirrels in their yard. Will book again without hesitation.”
“Samantha and her family welcomed Bubba as their own pup! She kept us posted on his behavior and sent picture, which we loved. She has several kiddos and dogs that kept Bubba socialized and he had ongoing play all weekend. We’d definitely recommend Samantha and plan on booking her again in the future!”
“Amy and Caleb were the perfect hosts for our Australian Shepherd. Our pup craves human attention and their four boys played with her until her heart was content and her legs tired. Amy shared updates and photos throughout the stay and was always responsive when I had a question. Great experience.”
“I appreciate Grendaliz taking care of my baby Rocsi while I was away! She sent picture updates and was great with communication! I would recommend her to anyone and I’ll definitely use her services again!❤️”
“Karen is such a delight to work with! This was our first time using Rover and I was really nervous. Karen made it easy and it was so nice knowing that someone else was loving on our pup while we weee gone.”
“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.”

Jessica was absolutely amazing with our not entirely housebroken 14-week-old puppy!!! She kept me updated with how he was doing and even taught him how to sit! He came home extremely happy and well cared for. I will definitely have her watch our puppy in the future.

There are 945 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lawrence. About 92% of Lawrence 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.

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 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.
