“I appreciate Abigail accepting my booking and consistently communicating with me regarding my boy Archie. She sent me updates and pictures and actually spending time with him. She accommodated a last minute schedule change and was very kind in that exchange as well. I already expressed that I would love to use her again whenever we need another sitter.”
“Christina is wonderful! She did an amazing job taking care of my cat Rufus. She went above and beyond to make sure he had everything he needed. She is communicative and a fantastic sitter.”
“we are so glad we found Beth M! our dog Tuko loves her and so do we. great person, excellent communicator! Beth takes your pet into her home with her own and her family. we have not enough words to recommend Mrs. Beth M. Great sitter.”
“Was able to book last minute. Erin was very professional and communication was always fast. George was very knowledgeable in dog behavior and made accommodations for my dog's need. I was very satisfied with their service, professionalism and interactions throughout Bella's stay.”
About: Growing up with dogs of all sizes taught me how to adapt to their unique needs, training styles, and energy levels. I currently care for two energetic, 45-pound dogs, which requires daily structured exercise, interactive mental stimulation, and consistent behavioral management. We all savor ending the night with cuddles and love. I currently work weekdays and get off around 2:30pm so I would be available after then and on some weekends. Due to my job, i'm often available when there are seasonal/holiday breaks. I also live on the base at fort knox! I have 2 dogs that are very shy around newcomers, but love to play when they are warmed up. Since I understand that going into someone's home it's scary for the new comer. I will be extra careful and make sure that they feel comfortable and safe. I do have a fenced yard. I am always around the dogs, so there are almost no times when they are left alone.
“Ciara is great. She’s been dog sitting for us for years now. She’s reliable, flexible, and sends photo updates. They are the highlight! Thanks again. We’ll be seeing you and Rafa soon!”
“Lori was absolutely amazing! Sammy had so much fun at her house with the other dogs, and she gave him lots of love, treats, and attention. You can tell she is an animal lover! She went above and beyond at pick-up time to accommodate us. We will 100% use Lori again in the future.”
“Janet was SO accommodating and loving to my dogs when I drove to visit my son for his birthday. His roomie is allergic to dogs and I couldn't bring them into their house, but he wanted to see them. Janet kept my guys happy all day while I was spending time with my child. She even let me pick them up late after I was done with the birthday festivities. I highly recommend Janet to take care of your babies if you are in the Vine Grove area. She is super sweet and kind. A+++ sitter... really goes above and beyond. Thank you, again, Janet. I appreciate you.”
“Christina took great care of my bloodhound, Sissy May, who is a 110 pound dog. Sissy loved her and was very comfortable with her even though this was her first time being boarded ever.”
About: For me, pet sitting on Rover is so much more than a job—it is a true passion rooted in 30 years of dedicated animal care experience. Over the decades, I have had the absolute joy of looking after all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats and small animals. I know firsthand that every single pet is a cherished family member with their own unique personality and routine. Because of this lifelong background, I am incredibly adaptable; I know exactly how to keep up with a high-energy puppy, gently comfort a shy senior cat, or carefully manage specialized feeding schedules for your pets. I treat every animal in my care exactly how I would want my own pets to be treated: with endless patience, safety, and deep affection. Leaving a pet can be stressful for owners, so I always leverage my decades of experience to prioritize clear communication, reliability, and daily updates that give families complete peace of mind. I am fully confident in my ability to connect with and care for any type of pet, and I am dedicated to making sure both you and your companion feel completely safe, comfortable, and happy. I currently work as a handy-man so my hours are flexible enough to need your pets every needs from stopping by and playing multiple times a day to sitting with them all day and night. I also have an animal friend home with pleanty of play area and 1 acre of fenced in yard for them to play. My 3 dogs and 3 cats welcome any animal into the household with open paws. My gentle giant st. Bernard and German shepherd are rough enough to play tug of war with the biggest of dogs but gentle enough to cuddle and protect a 5lb teacup Yorkie.
“We booked extremely last minute & Nelson saved the day. This was our second time boarding with him & he took great care of our fur babies. Would def use Nelson’s services again!”
“Brooke was awesome with Waffle! Let’s just say Waffle was not happy leaving Brooke’s side. She kept me updated with the silliest photos of waffle having a great time with very easy communication/ drop off and pick up availability. Highly recommend”
“I had such a great experience with this dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear how sweet, kind, and genuinely caring they are—not just toward people, but especially toward animals. My dog felt comfortable right away, which gave me so much peace of mind. They were attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. It’s obvious they truly love what they do, and it shows in the way they treat the dogs in their care. I could tell my dog was happy, well cared for, and even a little spoiled with attention! I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet.”

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.
97% of sitters in New Middletown 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 New Middletown 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 New Middletown.
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.

You and your New Middletown 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.
