“Jasmine was so great with my dog. She took her on long daily walks and gave her a lot of love and attention. She had great communication and sent pictures and updates throughout the day. I will absolutely be using her again!”

“Ginger loves when she’s able to stay with her friends! As soon as we turn onto their street, she gets super excited and runs right up to the door. I always know she’s having a great time and is safe when she stays at their house. Couldn’t ask for a better place for her to be!”

“We had a great experience! Lauren took wonderful care of our dog for two nights, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Our dog came home happy and well cared for. We would absolutely book with Lauren again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you!”

“I have no words with how thrilled we are!! Our pack of 3 fur babies had a blast with Kieth at his house. They had free run every day and Kieth made sure they kept up with their commands. Before dropping off, Keith was sure to ask for an emergency contact and vet information just in case. My husband and I got pictures while we were gone. We got updates on how our pack was doing and getting along with the other dogs at his place.”


“Danielle was so awesome, she arranged a meet up with us beforehand so our dog would know her and her lovely dogs when he went for his sleepover! Danielle sent us messages and photos of Austin's stay which made us feel so happy 😊 Austin cant wait for his next sleepover at Danielle's!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. I’m a dog mom myself, so I know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your pet. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, routines, medications, and lots of attention. I’ll treat your pet like part of the family and make sure you get plenty of updates while they’re with me. I work a hybrid schedule and am home Thursdays and Fridays, which gives me plenty of flexibility for daytime care, walks, and check-ins. I’m also available most evenings Monday through Wednesday and have greater flexibility on weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine. I have a friendly dog of my own and understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and comfort level. I keep a calm, clean home and make sure pets have plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and downtime. I’m careful with introductions and will follow your feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions closely. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“Bayley was absolutely wonderful with our dog Koda! She was very communicative throughout the entire stay and sent us lots of updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She is clearly experienced and comfortable with big dogs, and we really appreciated how compassionate, patient, and kind she was with our pup. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his comfort and well-being. We would absolutely recommend Bayley and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Great sitter, Xena was in great shape and happy upon pickup. Communicated well without being overbearing. Respected my concerns and addressed them. Would recommend and use again.”

About: With 16 years of hands-on experience in veterinary medicine, caring for animals isn't just something I do, it's something I've dedicated my life to! My background includes general practice, emergency and critical care, and specialty veterinary medicine, including internal medicine. I've cared for pets of all ages, personalities, and medical needs, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience, attention, and TLC. I'm experienced in administering medications, recognizing subtle changes in behavior or health, caring for pets with chronic medical conditions, and remaining calm in unexpected situations. My years in emergency medicine have taught me the importance of paying attention to even the smallest details. **One of the biggest perks? I work from home!** This means I can offer plenty of companionship, supervision, cuddles, and personalized attention throughout the day. Whether your pet loves curling up beside me while I work, needs frequent potty breaks, or simply feels more comfortable having someone nearby, I'm happy to accommodate their routine. Beyond my professional experience, I'm also a devoted pet parent who understands that our animals are family. I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your furry loved ones. Whether I'm welcoming your pet into my home, caring for them in the comfort of their own space, or stopping by for a visit, my goal is always the same: to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. With me, your pet isn't just being watched. They're being cared for. 🐾❤️ I work remotely from home, which allows me to incorporate pet care naturally into my daily routine! I'm home throughout my workday and can provide companionship, supervision, and attention between tasks and during breaks. I understand the importance of maintaining familiar routines, so I do my best to follow each pet's usual feeding, potty, medication, and rest schedule. Whether your pet enjoys relaxing nearby while I work or needs a little extra reassurance throughout the day, I'll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is always their safety, comfort, and happiness! **In my home:** I work remotely, so I'm home throughout the day to provide companionship, supervision, and plenty of love. I strive to create a calm, cozy, and welcoming environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual feeding, potty, medication, and sleep routines as closely as possible. I also have two cats of my own, so ensuring everyone's safety and compatibility is especially important to me. Introductions are handled carefully, and I respect each pet's individual personality and boundaries. **In your home:** I understand that many pets feel most comfortable in their familiar surroundings. During house sitting or drop-in visits, I follow your instructions closely to maintain their normal routine, including meals, medications, litter box or potty care, playtime, and plenty of affection. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is doing well. With 16 years of veterinary experience, I'm especially attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, and overall well-being. I'm comfortable caring for senior pets and those with additional medical needs, and I know the importance of remaining calm and attentive in unexpected situations. Above all, I treat every pet as an individual, respecting their needs, routines, and personalities while giving them the same patience, kindness, and love I'd want for my own. 🐾❤️

“Marilyn took good care of my puppy. She sent pictures and videos about the puppy to me every day. My puppy had wonderful time with the kids and other dogs. I will select Marilyn to take care of my puppy again if I will travel in the future. Thank you, Marilyn! I am very appreciative your help!”

About: With 25 years of loving dog care and attention, I stand out by providing personalized and compassionate care. While I don't specialize in training, my extensive experience includes caring for both puppies and senior dogs, ensuring they receive the love, attention, and routine they need. My dedication to each pet's well-being and happiness sets me apart from other sitters. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I dedicate time each day to feeding, walking, and playing with my pets, ensuring they receive love and attention. On weekends, I spend extra time with them, taking them to parks or on longer walks, and occasionally to the beach for some fun by the sea. In my home, I ensure pets are well-fed, exercised, and loved. I provide daily walks, playtime, and regular grooming. For clients, I offer personalized care based on their pet’s needs, including feeding, walking, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure to follow any specific instructions provided by the pet owners to maintain their routines and comfort.
About: Animals have also been apart of my life since I was young. From dogs and cats to rabbits! I love them all. I have experience dealing with a wide range of breeds as well. I have babysat dogs of family and friends while they were away. I am a dog mom myself and enjoy caring for animals! I am a stay at home mom with plenty of time during the week to love on your dogs! For boarding I am available after 5pm. I have a fur baby that loves other dogs and playing! They will have a good time together! I do not have a fenced backyard so daily walks are always fun for my dog. Lots of room in the house to cage your pup if necessary (cage must be provided).

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.
98% of sitters in Northcliff 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 Northcliff 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 Northcliff.
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 Northcliff. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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 Northcliff 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.
