“This was Bonita's third trip to Mary's. On the latest visit, Bonita immediately ran and sat on Mary's son, Gary's, lap and gave me a look "Im fine, goodbye". So I left. Mary sent me daily reports via pictures and/or videos. Bonita seemed happy and relaxed. When I came to pick her up, she was happy to see me, but did look back at Mary's family and seemed to say "thank you". Mary is sweet, friendly, and always smiling.”

“Andrea and Paul were a perfect fit for Jasper! They took excellent care of him. Their beautiful home is inviting and cozy. Their fenced in backyard was a real treat for Jasper. We received updates and pictures everyday. It was clear that Jasper was content, safe, and well cared for! In this day and age it can be difficult to find kind, trusting people to do business with. Andrea and Paul are just that and we are very happy to have found them. We will definitely be repeat clients. 🐶”

“Tiffani was great with my Rudy. Treated him like her own. Great communication with me. Never worried for a minute that he wasn't having the best care. I know he had a great time because he was worn out when I picked him up. Not an easy thing to do with an active puppy like my Rudy. I would highly recommend Tiffani and will definitely have her look after him next time I am in town.”

“Shanie was so accommodating to our last minute booking which definitely helped with our stress. It was also so helpful of her to not only pick up our dogs (for free!!) but to also then drop them off! We have a newborn so we really appreciated the convenience of that! She sent us a lot of updates with pictures and we will definitely use her in the future for our fur babies!!”

About: I have 10 years of experience as a pet owner as well as 3 years of experience as a dog walker / behavior specialist volunteer at a local animal shelter. Over the course of the past five years, I can confidently say I’ve handled over 1,000 dogs of different sizes with ease. Additionally, one of my dogs is a senior with a daily medication regimen, so I know how to pill dogs without any fear tactics. I am also Fear Free Certified! I’m available for boarding throughout most weeks but really open up on the weekends. I am enthusiastic about meeting pups every day of the week! I have a privacy fenced yard and 3 dog friendly dogs to keep your babies company! I am comfortable leaving your pup in a crate if need be, but if not, they can free roam in the dog room (complete with a toddler bed and a tv!).

“Bernice was just the family away from home that Milo needed. I could tell he immediately felt right at home. I loved how she kept me posted the entire time of how he was doing and sent pics. She was exceptional and we will definitely be using her in the future when we come this way.”

About: I've been taking care of dogs & cats my entire life. I have experience as a vet assistant. Animals are my passion and not only do I love providing a loving home for my animals but I also know how hard it is to balance work and life in general when you have pets so I want to be able to care and help you with your fur babies as well! I'm currently only working part time so I have a lot of free time to care for your fur babies ! My schedule is pretty open so on my days off I can take last minute requests . I also enjoy being outdoors even if it's just sitting in the backyard with the dogs I have a fenced in yard with a loving yellow Labrador ! Your pup will have fun and will stay safe with plenty of exercise! I do not go on walks without a leash or without your consent.

About: We have always had pets (Mostly Dogs) growing up and have never met a dog or cat that didn't like us. We are the type of people that animals (Fur Babies) just feel at ease with. From the smallest of toy and lap dogs to the much larger Great Danes and Mastiffs. We will always get along, even the dog that nobody can handle and scares them. My patients never wears thin and eventually all, even the most stubborn pet warms up to me. Any pet under our supervision will always be taken care of from walks, to alone time to calm their nerves if need be but NEVER neglected. We truly believe that your Dogs and/or Cats should and will be treated just you would. Thanks, Between my wife and I we are essentially available 24/7. And hope to accommodate any ones schedule. Our routine will be scheduled around whatever is needed We have a full half acre completely fenced in (Wooden privacy fence). And of course whatever it is you and your dogs like enjoy we will accommodate.

About: I've always had pets. I've had a dog every year of my life since I was born. I love their different personalities, breeds and interactions. I currently have 3 of my own, Bentley, Bailey and Scooby-Doo. Each of them is different from the other and I wouldn't change any of them. I am available currently Friday-Sunday. I have pets of my own and we play and exercise together. I love animals so much, I enjoy helping and playing with others. I have a small fenced in area for little dogs, which is where all 3 dogs of mine are. All 3 are playful and friendly.

“Alisha was great with our 7 yr old coonhound, Beau!! Highly recommend. We had a situation where we needed to book an overnight boarding last minute and she was extremely accommodating and helpful. Our pup got along great with her and her pets. We could tell he was very comfortable there. She kept us updated throughout his visit, which is always greatly appreciated. We’ll definitely be rebooking when in the area :) thanks Alisha!!”

“Daryl boarded our dog from the 23rd through the 24th and she was amazing! Our dog is, for the most part, very high maintenance and craves personalized attention and that is what he got for two days being with Daryl. We had looked at other boarders, ones with other dogs, ones with various other animal types, kids etc... and just watching Chief interact with Daryl was incredible. He immediately took to her and to the environment, was playing, jumping and even napping almost right away. We were sent photos consistently while we were away and just seeing him happy and playful and even how tired he was was a wonderful sight. We would definitely recommend anyone who is looking to have their dog boarded to consider Daryl, especially if they require more personal attention. She did great!!”

“Becca took amazing care of my dog Blitz while my wife and I were in Hawaii all week! She sent plenty of pictures and updated us on how he was doing everyday. She took him on walks, played with him, and let him sunbathe in the backyard everyday. She’s super personable, reassuring, and I will absolutely be booking with her again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Pinola home-away-from-home, 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 Pinola.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Pinola 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 , 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 .

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.
