About: Our family loves dogs. We have two kiddos that would love on and play with the dogs constantly. So your pet will not be alone. Since I work from home, pet care fits well into my daily routine. As a mom of two, my family and I understand the importance of providing love, attention, and a safe environment for animals. Working from home allows me to be more flexible with pet care, including feeding, letting pets outside, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. We would plan around our family’s schedule to make sure each pet receives dependable care, plenty of affection, and attention to their individual needs. We would treat every pet like part of our family! I provide loving, attentive care for pets in my home or my client’s home by making sure they have fresh food and water, a clean and comfortable environment, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I follow each pet’s normal routine and the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. I also make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and never left unattended for extended periods. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind while they’re away.
“Brianna is great! She sends regular updates, and my dog ALWAYS looks like she is having a great time. I feel so confident leaving my dog with her; I know she will have a great weekend with Brianna.”
“Jurnee A FIVE STAR Rover Dog Sitter. Highly recommend. Our first stay over for our Toby since we just moved to Whitestown IN. A very nice and kind sitter. Our Toby loved playing with her dog-friendly puppies. Blessings Steve & Debi”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Plainfield
Did a one night trial run with our 2 dogs in advance of a longer vacation next month. Our older dog can be a little grumpy around other dogs but Tracy did great managing them. She sent lots of pictures which we truly appreciated. She has a lovely large fenced back yard which our dogs enjoyed.
Kristen and her family were wonderful. It was easy to get scheduled and Kristen's schedule was very accommodating for our needs. She kept us up-to-date while we were away and shared pictures of Bailey to let us know how he was doing. We would, gladly, use Kristen and her family again to board Bailey.
Brittany communicated with us throughout our dog’s entire stay. She was very professional and flexible. She kept us up to speed on how he was adjusting, sent pictures every day and it looked like he had a blast! Our dog loved playing with her sweet doodle. Couldn’t recommend her more!
What a lovely lady! Alisa and her family welcomed my 2 pups with such care and love. From the Meet & Greet to the time we picked them up I knew they were in good hands. It's been a long time since I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying. We highly recommend Alisa!!!
Addison took such wonderful care of our dog Lily, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Addison was incredibly attentive, kept us updated, followed all of Lily’s care instructions, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Lily came home happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which means everything to us. We would absolutely trust Addison with Lily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful pet sitter. Thank you Addison, for taking such great care of our little girl!
Claudia has been an absolutely wonderful sitter for Phoebe, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the care and attention she provides. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly has a natural connection with animals, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Phoebe was happy, well-cared for, and comfortable the entire time, which says everything about Claudia’s dedication and kindness. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!
This was the first time I've left my dog with a stranger, so I was a bit uncertain about a two-night stay. But from the first phone call, to dropping my dog Stormy off, to text updates to finally picking Stormy up, the experience couldn't have been better. Hannah instantly made me feel at ease, and her love for animals is evident. Hannah even introduced Stormy to her own children - and little kids were a new experience for Stormy. But all went REALLY well and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Hannah nor to place Stormy in her care again :)

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 Plainfield 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 Plainfield 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 Plainfield.
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 Plainfield. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 Plainfield 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.
