“Crystal and her family took amazing care of Maiya and we felt that our puppy was not only taken great care of but became a part of their family while we were gone. She kept us posted and shared pictures so we could see our pup. I would highly recommend.”
“Joshua provided exceptional service, demonstrating excellent communication and attentiveness to my fur baby skin allergies. He proactively provided updates and even sent a photograph. I highly recommend his services and will certainly utilize them again.”
“Jett had a wonderful time! I think he wanted to stay longer & play 😂 We were thrilled to get tons of pictures and videos of our baby as well as really good communication while we were away. Thank you for taking such good care of him and I know he’s looking forward to the next play date!”
“Great communication!!! Leo had a great time spending the weekend with Seygourney, Eric, and their dog James. I received lots of updates including photos and a video. Would definitely recommend!”
“Clara did a really good job at taking care of my two boys. I could noticeably tell they were both calm and relaxed when I picked them up. I will definitely rebook. Thank you Clara”
“Yelena immediately started sending pictures and updates on my pooches and continuously sent them throughout their stay. My one dog was having allergy issues affecting his paws and she was able to wipe them down and correct some marking behaviors he was displaying. They seem to get a lot of time outdoors and were able to roam about inside and could choose to go into crates. When my travel plans were delayed, she was quite accommodating and I really appreciate that.”
“Nancy and her Husband are so sweet ♥️ Our little Theo went to stay with her for one night and he had a great visit! We don’t use dog sitters much so we were a little nervous to drop him off, but Nancy and her Husband made us confident with their passion for dogs. Will use them again, for sure!”
“Scheduling with Kristen was a breeze! She was very accommodating and flexible with the pick up and drop off times. I was a little nervous with this being my first time ever boarding my dog but she made it very easy on me by providing periodic updates. The fact that she also has 2 bichons and that he had a blast definitely puts me in the returning customer category!”
“Chris was easy to work with and took such good care of our Edna! We felt so comfortable leaving our pup for our summer vacation knowing she was in great hands! Would definitely not hesitate to use Chris again. 🥰”
“Aricel cared for Winnie like her own! Winnie was very comfortable with Aricel and loved the backyard. Aricel sent us photos and updates every day. We will send Winnie to stay with her again.”
“Parker enjoyed his stay with Christopher! We received photos throughout the week. When we picked Parker up he was doing very well. Christopher is recommended!”
“Gabriella was amazing with Skylar. From the minute we met at the meet and greet to her 4 night stay with her. Lots of pictures and updates. Skylar was living her best life! Will definitely be using her again! Thank you!!!”
“Nikki T was fabulous. Remi does not like to be without his family. Nikki had no problems in making Remi comfortable in her home. Great experience for Remi and our family. Would return to, and recommend Nikki T.”
“Jeff & Tina are energetic, conscientious caregivers willing to fold their schedules around the needs of my dog. They have tremendous patience. I have so much appreciation for their grace in handling my relentless and needy guy. It’s refreshing to return home without feeling guilty about the shenanigans he’s gotten into and the hoops they’ve had to jump through while I was gone. Really, it’s everything.”
“Amy & Calab and the family are the best dog sitters. You can 100% trust them. They sent us al ot of pictures, and I could see on my dog's face and in their behavior that they were truly happy.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Riverwood
Courtnie was WONDERFUL! You can tell that she is a true dog lover and is passionate about taking great care of animals. I was so impressed with how much thought, care, and preparation that went into watching our dog. I felt so reassured that Chip would be in great hands, and he most definitely was. She gave fun updates and it was clear that our dog had an excellent time. Would highly recommend and will be booking Courtnie again!!!
If I could leave more than 5 stars I would! Courtnie’s care for my pup while I was gone was above and beyond! I booked last minute and she was very accommodating to my schedule and responded very quickly. While I was gone, she treated my girl as one of her own. She gave me updates multiple times a day to make me feel at ease. She catered to my girl like no other dog sitter ever has! I could not recommend her enough to any and everyone! I have zero complaints and will definitely be using her again! 1000/10

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 Riverwood 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 Riverwood.
<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 Riverwood 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.
