“I can’t say enough good things about Tammi. She took such loving care of our three dogs, Daisy, Stella, and our sweet senior girl, Sable. We were especially nervous about leaving Sable since she’s older and has some mobility issues, but Tammi kindly offered to do a meet and greet beforehand, which made such a difference. It immediately put our minds at ease and helped us feel confident that all three girls would be in the very best hands. While we were away, Tammi sent us pictures every day and kept us updated on how everyone was doing. She always responded quickly whenever we had a question, and knowing our girls were happy, comfortable, and surrounded by so much love made it so much easier to relax and enjoy our vacation. When we picked them up, all three dogs looked happy, healthy, and so well cared for. It meant so much to know that Sable was getting the extra patience and gentle attention she needed. Finding someone you can truly trust with your dogs, especially a senior dog who needs a little extra care, is priceless, and we’re so grateful we found Tammi. We will absolutely be booking with her again and couldn’t recommend her more.”
“Thank you Jane for taking such good care of Snowflake and sending us updates everyday. She looked happy with you and your 2 dogs. I’m glad she adjusted so well in your house. She will come back again. Thank you for everything.”
“Rebecca was wonderful with Fiona! She kept us updated with photos and messages, took great care of her, and made sure she was comfortable and happy. We really appreciated her kindness and attention to detail. We would definitely recommend her and book with her again! ❤️”
“Hayley was fantastic! Setting up a meet and greet was incredibly easy, and she was so accommodating and friendly right off the bat. She has a very calm, friendly, and grounding presence that our dog took to immediately. Everything went perfectly while we were away, and she was excellent at communicating, sending photos, and she followed all of our routines perfectly. It gave us so much peace of mind to know our Stanley was in such good hands. We would definitely book with Hayley again without hesitation!”
“Chrissy is Wonderful !!Keno is a very picky Dog in his eating and taking his medicine … Chrissy was able to take the challenge and accomplished well in both areas !! I’m always comfortable in leaving my 14 year old Cockapoo with her !!!”
“Eliza was great! Home was well equipped, she did great to introduce our pups with hers, was great with timely communication, and our pups left well cared for and happy!”
“Amanda was our of town but Donnie and their kids took great care of Stuart. This was his second stay with them and when we got to their house he was scrambling to get to the door, so I knew he must have had a good experience the first time. Nice, friendly family and I have no doubt Stuart received the best treatment.”
“Jenny was great! She took extra steps to make sure Sadie was comfortable during her stay - including homemade dog treats - and asked all the right questions to give Sadie the best care possible! We will be booking with her again!”
“Cori and her family were great! Our dog loved them and had a really good time at the stay. When Delilah had a medical issue arise (no fault of Cori's), Cori was communicative and made sure she was very comfortable. I would highly recommend this Rover.”
“Very nice and responded back very quickly to my text messages! Sent pictures of my fur baby to let me know she was ok. We would definitely use Diane again! Thank you”
“Meghan was great with my 8month old pup, Winnie. I got daily text and picture updates, which I love, and Meghan was very responsive. When I picked Winnie up she seemed happy and relaxed with Meghan!”
“Rachelle is fantastic! My dog, Shiloh, enjoyed her time at Rachelle’s. I received daily updates with pics and videos. Shiloh also gets 3 pills a day and Rachelle made sure she was taking them. I’d definitely leave Shiloh with Rachelle again in the future.”
“Great people, very kind! Took fantastic care of my boy Haywood, he was whining the whole way home because we had to go home instead of staying with his new friends. We will be returning in the future and I would recommend Katie and Joe to anyone looking to have someone watch their dogs! Thank you both for loving Haywood and taking such good care of him while I was out of town!”
“Amy is the best! Her knowledge and love of animals shows in everything she does! Our fur babies had a marvelous vacation at her home and loved the fenced outdoor area. Plus, Amy is a talented photographer and the surprise pics of Roscoe and Sassy were icing on the cake. Thank you, Amy, for all you do for your families.”
“Jamie was wonderful with our dogs while we were visiting the Creation and Ark museum from out of town. She communicated with us before and during our dog's stay. She worked with our drop off and pick up hours, and took great care of our pets. We would absolutely use her again!”
“We have sent our pup to Natalie many times now and she is consistently fantastic! She keeps us up to date with pictures and our dog always comes home happy. I would continue to recommend Natalie to anyone in need of dog sitting.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 420 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Patriot. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Patriot 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 Patriot 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 Patriot.
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 Patriot. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 Patriot 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.
