“Once again Sara did an AMAZING job watching my little old baby Bones. Not only did she take him on super short notice, but she had him all during the holiday season with a pick up on Christmas Eve. My dog is old and anxious but Sara worked her magic (as always) and he was happy and content during his stay. She sent me regular messages and photos and I never worried even for a second knowing she had it handled. Her background as a Vet Tech really comes in handy with my babies as they have either been old or sick and she just takes the very best care of them. I swear that I would not go on vacation if Sara wasn't available to babysit for me. She is the absolute best and I would recommend her 100%!”
“Wonderful experience with Aaron! We did a trial overnight boarding for our dog in advance of a longer vacation next month. I love that he has extensive dog training experience and ensures safe introductions with other pets. He kept us updated and sent several pictures. Highly recommend and we will definitely be booking again with him.”
“Brianna was amazing! She was very accommodating and made my puppy feel right at home! She sent daily updates and photos and was very responsive to all my messages! I will definitely rebook Brianna in the future!”
“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!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Melissa was fantastic! We left our little Rooney with her for a week and he was in such great hands. She checked in with a few photos and videos for the week, and filled us in with updates on how he was doing. She has a wonderful set up for pups with a big fenced in yard. We will definitely be using her services again! Highly recommend :)”
“5/5 Stars – Absolutely Exceptional Care! We cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care our pets received. From the moment we met, it was clear that pet sitting isn't just a job for them, but a true passion. They went far above and beyond anything we expected. Not only were our pets fed right on schedule, but they also received an immense amount of genuine love and attention. The detailed daily updates, complete with photos and videos, gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. What truly blew us away was their remarkable attention to detail and willingness to step up in a stressful situation. When they noticed our dog had signs of worms, they communicated with us immediately and went to the store to buy new food, making sure it was the right type and that she liked it. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, attentive, and truly dedicated to your pets' happiness and safety, look no further. We will absolutely be booking them again!”
“My dog Kobe had a great experience for 4 days being taken care by Rajesh. Words cannot describe how happy we are and now my dog is missing Rajesh and wants to go back.”
“We could not be happier with Tracy as our sitter. From start to finish, the experience was wonderful. We were away for a full week, and Tracy went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. We received regular updates, photos, and videos, and every one of them showed just how happy and relaxed CC was. It was clear that Tracy truly cared and made the effort to help CC feel loved and at home. Knowing our dog was in such good hands gave us real peace of mind and honestly made our vacation even better. We would book with Tracy again in a heartbeat and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive sitter.”
“ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! This was our 1st Rover booking and I think we found the best pet sitter! Odalys was great. Her communication - both before and during our dog's stay - was excellent. We especially liked the photos that she sent to us while we were away. She truly loves the pets in her care. We would highly recommend!”
“Seth and Rachel were great! This was the first time booking with them and they went out of their way to make sure Archie was comfortable. They provided updates and photos the whole time and had great communication. Would definitely book with them again!”
“Amazing! We will definitely book Makayla again. She was thorough, communicated multiple times a day about how Layah was doing and went above and beyond to make sure she felt happy and well cared for. Layah got exercise and love and we could tell she was happy with Makayla.”
“Kristle was very responsive and did a great job watching our 2-year-old pit bull mix, even with the special needs our dog had at that time. She kept us very well informed on how our dog was doing each day, and I could tell she really cared about our dog. I’d definitely recommend her and would use her for dog boarding again.”
“Savanna did an amazing job taking care of our kitten! She was very accommodating to his needs and ours--meeting us first and discussing all the details, feeding him as often as he needed at his age. We got pictures and videos of him while we were on our trip. He was in great hands!”
“Phoebe had a lovely stay with Christine! She had fun playing with Christine’s dogs. Christine took great care of her, making sure Phoebe was comfortable. I will definitely book with Christine again!”
“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! 🐾💕”
“Richard and Elyce always take such wonderful care of my dog! They send photos constantly which I love so that I can see how my dog is doing (always having a blast). Highly recommend!”

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.

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 North Salem 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 North Salem 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 North Salem.
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 North Salem. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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 North Salem 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.
