“Sam was great watching our border collie puppy, Kya. Sam was accommodating when our airline changed our flight as well. Kya came home happy and healthy. Sam and her family, including their dog, all seemed easy going which helped with our dog. I’d definitely recommend Sam for boarding your dog.”
“Mallory took good care of Jiggly for a week and shared regular updates with the pics. Jiggly’s vegan food, his playpen accommodations were very well taken care of and he was provided a good play time with Mia. Would definitely be boarding Jiggly with Mallory again in the future”
“We felt so comfortable after leaving our golden with Julie!! She sent us updates and photos all the time, and we could tell right away her dogs and our dog would get along perfectly. Her animals are so sweet and so is Julie! We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future! Thank you to you and your family for taking such incredible care of our girl!!”
“Kyungyeon was AMAZING with our depressed doggie! He always mopes and eats very little when we are away, but Kyungyeon would not give up until he felt comfortable and happy in her home! We got so many pictures and updates and I am so grateful for the amazing care she took of our Obi!”
“Kristen was an excellent pet sitter for our dog. He appeared to have a good time with her and her family, and she was communicative throughout the process. Would definitely recommend her for someone looking for a sitter.”
“I am delighted to have entrusted my dog to Ms. Karen. He thoroughly enjoyed his time, evident from the photos she kindly shared. Ms. Karen provided excellent care, and I would certainly choose her services again. Grateful for your attention, Ms. Karen!”
“Great boarding sitter! He showed so much love and care to my Archie sent me pictures and videos daily so we can clearly see how happy and relaxed he was with the new place. I thought my Archie was unwilling to come back with us at the end! Will definitely book next sitting ASAP so I will get the spot!”
“I can't recommend Christina highly enough as a dog sitter! She has been absolutely wonderful with my dog, Chloe. From the moment I first left Chloe in her care, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. She is my sitter of choice; I will only turn to someone else if she is ever unavailable. Christina goes above and beyond to ensure Chloe is happy and well taken care of. She sends plenty of pictures, which always brighten my day and keep me informed about how Chloe is doing. It’s clear that she truly cares for my dog as if she were her own. If you’re looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring dog sitter, Christina is the perfect choice. I’m so grateful to have found her, and I know Chloe loves her too!”
“Our doggies had a great time. They came back tired, clean, and happy. Ash and Michael were very accommodating with our flight schedule for drop off and pickup. Would definitely recommend and will book again.”
“He has been amazing! I recently got assigned a job in this area and I was so stressed out trying to find someone who can keep my dog overnight. He has stayed with him for a few nights and I will be continuing to use him while this job lasts! He is great with my dog and my dog gets so excited when we pull up to the house for drop off!”
“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!!!”
“Gnocchi came home a bit tuckered out. She got to run around Christopher’s back yard!!! We got to see videos and pictures of her stay. Will book again, when we get to have time away.”
“I wish I could give 10 stars. Blake and the family took good care of our little Shitzu for almost 20 days, what a lovely family and perfect place for our little pet to stay. Hope to always have them around in any future need.”
“Kylie was great! She kept in communication with us and sent pictures of how Dolly was doing. We weren’t worried or stressed and could feel like Dolly was in a safe environment. We will definitely use Kylie again!”

“We’ve used Sam and Rachel the last 3 times we’ve needed a sitter and my dog loves going to their house! We hope to continue to use them for our pet sitting needs in the future as long as they’re available. Our dog comes home tired from sniffing in their big backyard every day and gets daily walks. Thanks Sam and Rachel for taking good care of Mav when we’re away!”
“Julie, you are wonderful! Jeb, enjoyed his time with you and the family. You made things so comfortable for him that he came home a happy, healthy dog. Thank you very much. We will definitely be seeing you over the summer.”
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.
