“Jennifer was very accommodating & we made a last minute booking & got the meet in greet in to make sure her doggies & ours was compatible. She welcomed us with open arms & let our dog check things out & then meet her doggie. Our dog felt comfortable & so did I & the doggies had the same energy level as ours is a boxer. Well they played & played. Loved the picture updates & video. They loved our dog like their own. She could sit on the couch with them & even sat on their laps. The fence in yard makes you feel at ease & took daily walks. We will be back. Thanks for loving our doggie & making it a stress free time away.”
“Josie and Michael were fabulous! It is such a relief to have a place to leave your fur babies and you do not need to worry. Josie made drop off a breeze and when I picked them up my babies seemed very relaxed, even though it was their first night away! I appreciate them very much and will definitely be using them again in the future. Do not hesitate to call on them, you will not be disappointed. Thank you so much Josie & Michael for welcoming my fur babies into your home.”
“Kind couple with 2 cute dogs. Sent updates and listened to instructions. My dog was so happy and had so much fun!!!! So glad I found this family!! 🙏 will book again for sure!”
“We moved here temporarily over a year ago from New Mexico and Chris has been taking care of our boy Whiskey everytime we go home to visit. We are moving back home this month and I just want to thank Chris for making our trips back home so easy knowing Whiskey was in good hands, I highly recommend Chris to everyone, Thank you for taking such good care of our dog. We will miss seeing Whiskey get so excited when we pull up to your house. Take care”
“Our dog is a full-fledged and much loved member of the family, and we felt very comfortable leaving her with Betty. I appreciated knowing that Betty is an experienced dog rescuer and caretaker. Her neighborhood and home were very nice. We loved receiving pictures and updates. Our dog often experiences stomach upset when stressed and she had none of that after staying with Betty! We definitely plan to have Lucy stay with her again. Highly recommended!!! :)”
About: I’m an attorney and moved to Granger recently. I have been on Rover for a few years (previously in Chicago and Colorado). I’ve had a cat since I was 7 years old, have worked with horses (not that I’m expecting to actually pet-sit any horses), and just adore animals. I have a 7 year old cat and a 1 1/2 year old dog. I love them both so so much. I would love the chance to spend more time with animals and hopefully help you out! I can handle all sizes of dogs. Just for a little more about me: I grew up in Erie, PA before leaving to attend Notre Dame for my undergraduate degree. I’ve played sports all of my life. I’d love to get to know your pets better too! Thanks! I work from home and make my own schedule so can make almost any time work. I love walking and being outdoors so I’d love to add dog-walking as part of my routine. I’ll be super attentive to your pets. I’ll be high energy and playful if that’s what they’re like or very chill and easy-going if they’re a little more slow paced!
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).
“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’ve owned large dogs consistently for the last 20 years. I’m ready to give snuggles to dogs of all sizes, though! Kids are back in school so I have lots of time on my hands. I’m ready to spread the love! I’m currently looking for some supplemental income doing something fun and rewarding while maintaining the flexibility I need for my kids and their schedule. I love the idea of borrowing someone else’s pup for a little bit so they don’t have to be lonely all day. I have been home since my youngest was born 9 years ago, so I have plenty of time on my hands during the days. We have a big fenced yard, and live on a quiet street with little traffic for walks. I don’t really have a lot of other things going on during the day, so frequent potty breaks are no issue.
“Haley is AMAZING! She took care of my 15 week old puppy last minute, and was super communicative. She sent photos and updates, as well as took him to socialize and made sure he was well taken care of. THANK YOU!”
“Edna was AMAZING! I have 2 senior doxies and 1 has very bad eye sight. She took her time with them especially my doxie with the bad eye sight who moves slow. I recommend her to anyone and will rebook with her again. She was also nice to provide pictures and updates while they were staying with her. That was nice.”
“Jaime took such good care of my dog during the polar vortex! She updated and sent me pictures. It made being away from my dog a little easier. It felt so good that he wasn’t alone and that he was getting so much love! Thank you, Jaime!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of many different breeds for years! I am experienced in giving medication, enrichment activities, and overall just loving on pups! I work Monday through Friday typically but am able to modify my schedule more at the end of the week! My husband is often home when I am not to allow for those extra potty breaks and play time I have 2 French bulldogs who love to play and will keep your babies company! They also can be in their crates if your doggo is a little more on the shy side! I also have multiple rooms and give give you fur baby their own space!

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 Middlebury 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 Middlebury 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 Middlebury.
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 Middlebury. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 Middlebury 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.
