“Ali did a wonderful job watching my two dogs for a long weekend. She is competent, caring, a proactive communicator, and quick to reply to any questions. My dogs were so happy and content when I picked them up, they wanted to stay at Ali’s place longer. It is so comforting while traveling to know that my dogs are well cared for. I will definitely call on Ali again, I feel so lucky to have found her.”
“Callie’s first stay with Tiffany was great! It’s always hard to leave her behind but we instantly felt comfortable knowing she was loved and well cared for by the whole family with lots of snuggles!”
“Maverick had a good time!! He came home the same dog I dropped off (which is 💯 a relief) and he made friends with a tiny dog! Also very appreciative for a shorter notice booking.”
“Josh was great with our dog. We appreciated the opportunity for a meet and greet before our trip. While we were away, Josh sent us daily updates and nade sure our dog was comfortable and cared for. When our flight was cancelled and we couldn't get home at the planned time, Josh was flexible and helpful in extending our dog's syay by a day.”
“Andrea was awesome to work with! She has an initial Meet and Greet so we could meet her and see her home and yard where Frank and Walter would be staying. This helped put us at ease. When we dropped the boys off she was prepared and ready to take on whatever came her way. The boys had a great time at her home and she sent lots of pictures of them playing and snuggling. It’s obvious she cares about the dogs she cares for. She was also super flexible when we ended up with continuous issues getting home. We so appreciated this as we were stressed already with our many delays. We will definitely have Andrea watch Frank and Walter again soon. Thanks again Andrea!!”
“Brooke was communicative, understanding of accomodations for our dogs, and sent lots of photos! We would definitely recommend her. The dogs came back home very tired after a great day playing with the other dogs.”
“Laura and her family worked out great for our 2 pups. She was available on short notice and was a very good communicator, which we really appreciated. We scheduled a meet/greet prior to the booking and were very comfortable with Laura, her 2 pups, and her home. Our pups really enjoyed playing in her fenced backyard and lounging on her deck. When indoors, Laura’s home was super comfortable and accommodating for their needs. We would definitely recommend Laura’s services and rebook with her, if needed.”
“James was kind and attentive to Junes needs, he took her on nice long walks to tire her out and sent a few updates! James is very easy to communicate with and understands dogs wells! We greatly appreciated how he cared for our dog!”
“Caitlin and family took great care of our two French bulldogs at her home while we were away on a family vacation. She was very patient and accommodating with the needs of our pups and helped them transition to being in a new environment. I received daily photos and videos of Buddy and Rocky on how they were doing. Overall, we were very pleased with the care that was given to our pups and will be using Caitlin for future family trips. I would recommend Caitlin to anyone looking for a caring, dependable and knowledgeable person to care for their pets.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker! He was highly communicative when it came to how my pet was doing as well as sending pictures. Very patient and helpful, especially good with younger dogs!!!”
“Michaela watched our pup, LuLu, for almost two weeks. I received lots of fun pictures and updates throughout that time. Communication was great and Lulu got lots of walks ,playtime with other dogs and runs in! I would definitely use her again and recommend her if you need an excellent, caring sitter for your fur babies.”
“Amanda did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 senior dogs. She provided daily updates for us. She was also very accommodating when I came to our plans changing last minute. Thank you so much.”
“Alysha was the absolute best!!! We were SUPER nervous to board our dog, Benny, for the first time as he can get pretty anxious when we’re gone. Her & her husband made Benny feel right at home right away. He had a blast with them & their dog Ollie!!! He loved them! Alysha made sure to send lots of pics & videos of Benny which I’m so grateful for! She even got Benny a pup cup which he LOVES. She did a wonderful job overall and was very accommodating! We will 100% be using Alysha for Benny’s boarding in the future and would recommend highly to others. :) Thanks Alysha for taking such great care of our baby. ❤️ I’m grateful to have found such a great sitter nearby!”
“I was in such a pickle, no one could watch my cat, so as my last resort I downloaded this app and started reaching out. Within 10 minutes of my request Aryal messaged me back saying that she was willing to take him THAT SAME DAY! She has such a welcoming spirit and took amazing care of my cat and sent updates! He came back clean and happy! I would not hesitate to book with her!”

Alysha was available on short notice to watch Lily. She sent me pictures and updates of Lily throughout her stay, and even took her on long walks and outings! She went above and beyond to make sure Lily felt comfortable and well-cared for. I will definitely book with her again and would recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy dog sitter!
Thank you so much for taking good care of Ash and Hazel with their anxiety issues. They look happy and playful coming back home. Thanks to Rikka and Peggy for sharing their space with them. Hazel and Ash would love to spend time with them next time. Highly recommend for homely stay!!

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.
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.
98% of sitters in Tiffin 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 Tiffin 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 Tiffin.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tiffin. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Tiffin 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 IA 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.
