“Kristen is a great dog sitter ! Her communication is amazing she made sure to send plenty of pictures and also text updates about my dog ! This was the first time my dog went and he had an amazing time 10/10 will definitely use her in the future ! Words can’t describe how great this went !”
“We were blessed to find Victoria and her sweet family to love our two furry girls while we were away for a whole week. Leaving them with someone I did not know was very stressful. She settled my fears by staying in touch daily and sending pictures. When we picked them up, I could completely see the girls had been loved dearly while I was away. I will absolutely call on Victoria if we need a sitter in the future. XOXO”
“Wonderful care for my two pups while on vacation. I could tell by the updates and pics Julie sent me that my boys were happy and comfortable. So appreciative of your communication and flexibility.”
“Kamela was a very kind dog sitter. She recognized Max's habits quickly and I'm sure he felt comfortable with Kamela and her family. She sent me pictures and updated me daily on Max's activities. I am very satisfied with our first booking with Kamela, and I'm sure I will book with her again in the future.”
“Juno was well taken care of at Lauren's! She has a big backyard and such sweet doggos to play with my sweet girl. Lauren updated me daily and responded quickly when I checked in on my baby. I'll definitely count on Lauren again for boarding.”
“Nichole and her family are AMAZING! I was super nervous about leaving our pup, not many understand the pitbull breed. Nickie got her playing with other pups and gave her plenty of attention. We couldn't be happier. Thanks again, we'll be booking again soon!”
“Once more we left our dog Vanilla at Brook's home and once more she was awesome. Updated us with photos and videos of Vanilla all the time. She loves playing with Brook's dogs and we are very happy we found her. ”
“my two dogs and I really enjoyed our meet and greet with Bowen! Bowen has a calm energy about her that my dogs felt very comfortable with. Unfortunately, I had to cancel my overnight care at her home due to family needs, but I did want to leave a review about my two dogs and my interactions with her. They were wonderful and I do plan to use her in the future!”
“Our dog loved staying with Nicole & her family! She was responsive & sent us pictures and updates daily! She made sure that our dog felt like he was part of their family! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe family to watch their family while they are away! I will be using Nicole again in the future!”
“Nora and Levi were wonderful with my dog, Juno. They took great care of her over the holidays. Their dog Scarlett was a big sweetheart and got along with Juno very well. Their big, fenced in yard is just great for dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Mary Jane is calm and experienced with the care of dogs. She first kept Hibiki separate from her dogs until she got used to the new environment before gradually introducing her dogs. I’ll definitely try not to go out of town unless absolutely necessary but if I do, I’ll leave Hibiki in her capable hands again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs on and off for a side job for 2 years. I’m very actice and love taking my own dogs on walks. I love dogs and cats, i’m very well organized and I will make sure your animal is loved, well taken care of and comfortable! I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility to spend quality time caring for your pets! I’m happy to discuss scheduling, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding, or overnight care. My goal is to make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! Since I have two dogs of my own who are not comfortable around other dogs, I provide pet-sitting services in your home rather than mine. This allows your pets to stay in their familiar environment and maintain their usual routines. I’ll always follow your instructions, respect your home, and make sure your pets receive plenty of love, attention, and responsible care while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in caring hands!
“Melinda was amazing! She dog sat our senior dog w medication needs, poor hearing and eye sight and was outstanding! She provided updates, photos and peace of mind allowing us to enjoy our visit to Nashville, IN. Looking for a rockstar sitter - look no farther - Melinda is the best!”
“Emily was wonderful with our two miniature schnauzers. They were both very well cared for, including the administration of insulin for our diabetic dog. She was an excellent communicator before and during their stay. We greatly appreciated her updates while we were away and would not hesitate to book with Emily again.”
About: With over 10 years of experience in the veterinary field, rest assure that your pet is getting the best care. I worked in a general practice hospital for 5 years then transitioned to an Internal Medicine department where I worked for 5 years. With a special interest in senior dogs. I am able to administer medications for advanced disease processes. I am currently a stay at home mom, so I am home most of the time. I will be able to provide one-on-one attention, play time, and multiple bathroom breaks throughout the day. I have a very large fenced in back yard that is safe for your dog to run around in. I have a senior dog who spends most of her day napping. We also have a pet bunny who is kept separate from our visiting dogs. There are two children aged 6 and 8 that live in the home as well.
“Natasha was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Beans! From the very beginning, she was kind, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure Beans was happy and comfortable. We loved getting updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that Beans was well cared for and received plenty of attention and love. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would happily book Natasha again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you, Natasha, for taking such amazing care of Beans! 🐾💕”
“David was awesome with Bubba! He sent constant videos so I always knew Bubba was happy and in good hands. He even managed to get him to take his medicine when it was being difficult, which I really appreciated. Very flexible with pick up and drop off times and super helpful whenever I needed anything. Would definitely recommend him and will be using him again!”
“Everything went really well, Dita was really flexible and always sent us many updates and pictures which we really appreciated. Snickers seems to have enjoyed herself as well :)”
“Kelsey has a wonderful and kind energy. I truly can’t say enough good things about our experience with her. Spot was immediately made to feel like one of her family and I loved getting updates and photos of him receiving so much attention and love, especially from her daughter his new BFF. My only fear was that Spot was having too much fun and would be sad to leave. We definitely have to plan another trip so Spot can go back to visit his new friends.”
“They communicated very well about how the stay was going! They sent pictures, communicated when my cats weren't getting along, very patient with my more nervous cat, and loved on my more out going cat like he was their own.”

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.
96% of sitters in Trafalgar 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 Trafalgar 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 Trafalgar.
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 Trafalgar. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Trafalgar 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 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.
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.
