“Izzy stayed with Sherri for 6 nights while I was away on a trip. Sherri was kind enough to meet beforehand and introduce us to her family. She was patient with Izzy’s quirks and kept me updated on her well-being while I was away. We will definitely be returning customers!”
“Sara was great! She knows a lot about dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with her. She sent me plenty of updates and my dog looked like she enjoyed her doggy vacation at her place.”
“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!!”
“Carrie did an execellent job taking care of our dog, Floki. She also provided my spouse and I with regular updates while we were away! Her level of professionalism was a real treat!”
“Rajesh was great! He was an excellent communicator and kept me updated with lots of pictures and updates on Royce’s activities. I really appreciated being able to see how well Royce was being cared for and how much fun he was having. Royce came home very happy and tired from all the activity! I would definitely recommend Rajesh and would happily book with him again.”

“Jessica and David took great care of Mocha. They communicated well, sent us lovely photos of our pooch during her stay, and treated her to a walk, car ride and pup cup. They are true dog people! Absolutely would book them again.”
“Sarah and her husband boarded our dog over our dogs 3rd birthday and they spoiled her like crazy and made her day so special, we absolutely love them and were so happy to get pics of all the fun!! We take our dog to them all the time and couldn’t ask for a better sitter (and doggie playmate) for our pup!!”
“We can’t thank Emily enough! We were traveling from Minnesota to Indiana for the Indy 500 and Emily accepted our boarding request without meeting Dave. Emily truly loves and cares for animals large and small, especially our pug Dave. Don’t hesitate to contact Emily for your pets boarding needs. Thanks again Emily.”
“Best rover experience so far! We rebooked with Mallory and will rebook again. We love her flexibility, reliability and amazing updates. Our little guy loves his time with her. He’s truly treated like a king with Mallory.”
“Chris made me and my fur baby feel comfortable in her home. I appreciate her time to meet us in her home and discuss our pet. Our fur baby suffers from separation anxiety but because of Chris’s personality and experience in caring for pets my boy was relaxed and therefore I was able to relax during our vacation. 100% recommend you to trust Chris with your fur baby. Thanks Chris!”

Jamie is the absolute best! My boys did great with her and her dog. She is great at updating on the stay and sends pictures which I loved. When it came time for pickup, Jamie was very understanding and accommodating when we got delayed a little on our return home. Thank you again for a wonderful stay! We appreciate you!
Jamie was wonderful about sending us photos and updates while we were away. Our dog has really bad anxiety, and she was able to manage keeping him with no issues. She was prompt for pickup and drop off, and even got him in the house for me, as I was on crutches.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Thorntown 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 Thorntown.
<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 Thorntown 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.

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.

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.
