“Heather was kind as was her family. Our dog had a great time with Heather and another house guest dog. He slept like a baby when he got home as he was worn out from all the fun!”
“Alexa was exactly what I needed to care for my Cat! As a first-time cat owner, I was really concerned of how my cat would respond to separated from me. Alexa immediately recognized her demeanor when I dropped her off and gave me the reassurance that I needed to know she was going to be okay. Alexa sent me photos through out the days we were apart and her bubbly personality made it easier knowing my cat was in the right hands. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Alicia and her husband were excellent dog sitters. We felt very comfortable leaving our dogs with them. They updated us daily with pictures. The dogs looked happy staying there. This was the first time leaving them and the first time we met them at a meet and greet we knew they were the ones to watch our doggies. We will definitely use them again. Thank you so much Alicia for taking wonderful care of our doggies! We appreciate you both! You both are very kind!”
“Rose did a wonderful job watching our Ember! She stayed with her for 5 days while we were out of town, sent lots of pictures, and kept me updated. When we met prior to Ember’s stay, I could see her love of dogs in her manner of communicating with Ember. Rose strikes me as one of those people that just has a special connection and understanding of dogs that goes beyond what normal people see. She also has dogs of her own so I was happy Ember had some friends to play with! I will happily entrust her to watch Ember again for our future travels. Thank you so much Rose! ?”
“We are so happy to have found Eddie. Leaving our girl behind while we were on vacation was difficult. Within the first day we felt so relieved Eddie sent a photo of Brooklyn sitting in a familiar way and we quickly believed she was totally comfortable. What a great feeling!! We found our go-to guy and as a result will be traveling more often sans Brooklyn. Thanks Eddie”
“She was phenomenal! Just so kind and patient with my dogs. I have a senior and a puppy (both small dogs) and she just went above and beyond for them and me! I truly cannot recommend her enough! If you’re in the area and can book with her I ABSOLUTELY would! Can’t thank her enough. She would send updates and photos daily answering questions comments and concerns. She really put me at ease and when I’m back I’ll book with her again!”
“Evan and her family did a wonderful job with Otto! We had no worries at all with him in her care. We appreciated the frequent updates with how he was doing and all of the fun exercise and activities he was taking part in. We will definitely be using Evan for future trips!”
“Amara was great with Winston and Angel. She sent picture updates daily so we knew they were well taken care of. She is so kind and caring. We will definitely book again with her!”
About: I have had over 30 years around pets. People trust me with their pets and love the care and attention that I give their pets. I substitute teach and also work part-time. I am mostly around late afternoons and on the weekends. As a fitness person, taking dogs when owner likes dogs to exercise is my favorite time with the pet. I keep the space open for the pets and also have toys for them to keep active and entertained. I also play with them often so they are well cared for.
About: To connect with your pet(s) on a super fun level and to really show them just how much we really do love and appreciate them! During the day 11 am to 2 pm At night 6 pm to 10 pm I would walk your pet around if needed but if the weather is appropriate. Being able to follow detailed instructions. I am consistent with the time I suppose to allow them to run and playing with them outside. I enjoy discovering new traits about pets.
About: I've been around dogs ever since I was a child. I rarely come across a dog that I don't like or that doesn't like me! I currently do dog sitting and walking for friends and family and would love to expand my services to others looking for high quality dog care. I work part-time so I usually have a very flexible schedule with a lot of availability. Mornings through afternoons are usually the best times . I meet the needs of the dog owner when watching dogs in a client's home. I understand that dogs can have varying needs/schedules. I feel comfortable giving dogs necessary medicines and meeting any special needs. I can go the extra mile to make sure your dog(s) are happy and safe. I've even saved a dog that fell in a pool once!

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.
94% of sitters in Plum Tree 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 Plum Tree 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 Plum Tree.
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.

You and your Plum Tree 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.
