“Joe and Tammy are amazing! I felt so much better knowing that Riley was with them while we were gone for 9 days. They sent me frequent pictures and updates so I never had to wonder how he was doing - they are very caring dog lovers who truly enjoyed spending time with him. Riley is a big spoiled baby and he was able to continue being a big spoiled baby at their house. He got lots of snuggles and playtime. I will definitely send Riley to stay with Joe and Tammy again!”
“Steve took excellent care of Max! We haven't had the best of experiences with our dog being cared for while we are away. I am so glad we found Steve on here. He went the extra mile to help us feel at ease and we appreciated the updates!”
“Jill was very sweet, sent lots of updates and clearly took great care of our dogs! She has a great set up to make the dogs feel at home . We will 100% book her again in the future.”
“Jameelah was an absolute delight to work with. She very clearly loved caring for our dog, Freddie. She sent lots of adorable pictures, took him on walks, and kept in close contact. We will absolutely use her again and appreciate everything she did to watch our little guy while we were gone.”
“Dita was truly the best of the best! As a first-time pet owner, I was so nervous about boarding my puppy, Parle-G, for a week, but Dita made the entire experience completely stress-free. She sent multiple photo and video updates every single day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly responsive, followed every one of my requests and instructions, and provided such personalized care. You can tell she doesn't just watch dogs—she genuinely takes the time to get to know each dog's personality and makes them feel safe and loved. Parle-G arrived feeling shy around other dogs generally keeping to herself, but she came home so much more confident and had made so many new dog friends. It made me so happy to see videos and pictures of her socializing and looking like she was excited around other dogs. It was obvious she was well cared for and had an amazing time. I truly couldn't have asked for a better first boarding experience. If you're looking for someone who will care for your dog like they're her own, I cannot recommend Dita enough. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Jeff and his family took great care of our pup while we were away. They provided regular updates and photos. When we picked up our dog, she was in good spirits! We will definitely book with Jeff again.”
“Bayley was absolutely wonderful with our dog Koda! She was very communicative throughout the entire stay and sent us lots of updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She is clearly experienced and comfortable with big dogs, and we really appreciated how compassionate, patient, and kind she was with our pup. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his comfort and well-being. We would absolutely recommend Bayley and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“I had an excellent experience leaving my dog, Waylon, with Keith. Keith was responsive to messages before & during Waylon's stay. I also received a few pictures. I felt confident that Waylon was in good hands while my family was on vacation.”
“I highly recommend Olivia! She took very good care of Jake. He made himself at home there, excluding Sleeping in the bed with them. That was so nice. He sleeps with us at home, so he wasn't lonely there. I would definitely have them take care of Jake if the need ever arises again.”
“Fluff had a great time with Shelley over the weekend! She was incredibly responsive if we had questions and sent us photos to keep us updated. We will definitely visit her again!”

Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
