“This is the second time we have used Chrissy. And this was a longer stretch of 2 weeks. Darby does really well with her family. It's a second home for him. Plenty of attention. And she is attentive to details.”
“Mike and Amanda were kind and considerate and clearly treated our dog like part of the family. They accommodated his special food requirements. They sent pictures daily to keep us updated on how he was. I am sure we will use them again next time we travel.”
“Katie, her husband, and her dogs are simply lovely. They took excellent care of my two huskies for about 10 days, one of which can be a bit particular when it comes to new furry friends. But Katie handled everything in stride and was able to integrate my dogs into the pack, and they were fast friends. Pictures and updates were thoughtfully sent. I know they had a good time because they didn’t have a care when I dropped them off (this was their second time with Katie). Would recommend!”
“Cori took such amazing care of my dog! Jupiter became part of her family and I knew she was in such capable and compassionate hands. Cori was very responsive and kept us in the loop, giving us updates on Jupiter throughout her stay. We will gladly have Cori care for Jupiter again.”
“Our dog Martin always enjoys himself when he is at Josephine's home. Josephine is very caring and has taken great care of Martin. She takes him to the dog park, which he loves and long walks. When he comes home after visiting Josephine’s house he is so wore out from all the fun that he had, that he has to rest. Josephine is informative, send pictures, and is so easy to communicate with. Josephine will be my first choice for a dog sitter going forward.”
“Michelle is very friendly, great with communication, and had a good approach to encouraging my shy dog to eat while I was away. Her experience and knowledge of pets shows. Thank you Michelle for taking such great care of Reese!”
“We're so happy with our dog's stay! We received daily updates and photos, and it was great to see him having fun in the backyard with the other dogs. I'll definitely request this family again.”
“Sarah was great and my little girl doggy enjoyed playing with her little pups- also , I loved getting a video and a picture as well . I would definitely use her service again and recommend her as well.”
“Like so many dog parents lost in the nerve wracking process of leaving your dog with someone new, we landed on Tonia. We scoured the listings and we made the RIGHT choice. She was very welcoming. We had a great meet and greet so Gus could meet her dogs and explore her space. Her house is very dog friendly and the yard is spacious and shaded. She was great at communicating and sending pics as well. Drop off and pick up was a snap. If you’re on the fence, jump on over and meet her. I would recommend to a friend and family and I would definitely use her again.”
“Ilaisah & Mario were amazing - we received pics of Finn everyday and it looked like him and Miles were having a blast. They were so accommodating to our late pick up time as well when our flight was way later than expected. Highly recommend them and we will have to set up play dates with Miles in the future!”
About: Howdy! I have had animals my entire life! I wish I could say that at some point during that journey I didn’t bear most of the responsibility for animals, but that’s just not who I am. I have grown up primarily with dogs, but as I got older we added cats, horses, goats, cows, chickens, even a mule. I have successfully (patiently) crate trained serval puppies. I have spent winter nights foaling horses, and bottle feeding calf’s, kids, and kittens. My love for animals only continues to grow with age. Do you ever look at your pet and get emotional because of how much you love them?? Because I do. And I couldn’t imagine treating any animal or human being without that same affection even if they aren’t mine. Being a pet owner is such a reward, but as humans we also have to experience travel and new memories along the way. I promise, whole heartedly to love your pet with as much love one can give. I promise to keep your beloved pet safe, warm, and fully loaded up on treats and kisses! (If allowed of course 😉) it is my job and duty to completely make you and your pet feel 100% at home and comfortable with allowing me into your life. I can’t wait to meet your pets! Pet care doesn’t “fit” into my routine. It just is my routine. There would never be a situation where I wouldn’t attend to your pets needs before anything else. Allowing and trusting me with your pet is a job I will only give 110% for. While I am primarily looking for a “regular” client, Someone who travels often, or goes out of town frequently. Someone who is looking for another constant in their pets lives. If this sounds like a typical situation for your family, I’d love to be considered to be your new sitter 🥰 I am also 100% accepting temporary clients as well! No matter how long, or how often you’re gone, I’d love to be the one considered!
“Kathleen was great! My.dogs take a few medications and she is always great about giving them their medication. In addition, she sent me pictures of my dogs and played with them every day!”
About: I absolutely love pets and will do my best to make them comfortable in my care! I consider pets to be family, and I will treat yours as u do my own. I am currently a stay at home mom who has a lot of free time during the daytime hours while my child is in school. I would be a great fit for daily walks or drop ins! I will treat your home with the same respect as if it were my own. I will leave it as it was when I am complete on my care session.
“Cassandra was extremely personably and prompt with communications during and after booking. When boarding she sent updates and feedback throughout the stay. I could tell that our dog was well cared for and welcomed into her home and family for the more than 2 weeks she had him. I will definitely be using Cassandra again!”
About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have grown up around dogs my whole life. I currently have two dogs at home, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals whether that’s going on walks, playing, giving attention and cuddles, or just keeping them company. I love all kinds of animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone else, so I always try to provide updates and make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable. My goal is to make your pet happy, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away! Experience: Lifelong experience caring for dogs and being around animals Have two dogs at home (used to have cats) and understand daily pet care routines Experienced with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving medications if needed Comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels Patient and attentive with shy, anxious, or high-energy pets Love spending quality time with animals and making them feel comfortable and cared for I’m currently a college student and will be a junior at Miami University this fall. Over the summer, I’m living at home with my family, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I work as an RBT, but I only work around 3 hours a day and I’m completely free on weekends, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and lots of attention throughout the day. Because of my flexible schedule, your pets won’t be left alone for long periods of time and will get plenty of care, playtime, and supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a safe, pet-friendly home with my family and have experience caring for animals with different personalities and energy levels. We have two friendly dogs at home, a Labradoodle and a Schnoodle, who get along very well with other animals. Our home also has a large open backyard with a pond, a front yard, and plenty of space for pets to play and explore safely. We also have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained or needs their own quiet space. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, and I will always treat your pet like part of the family. I’m responsible, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

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 Penntown 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 Penntown 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 Penntown.
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.

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.

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.
