“Faith and her Family are great! I’ve felt so comfortable leaving my fur babies with them! The photos and videos I got daily showed how much they enjoyed and cared for them while they were there. I will definitely keep faith as my go to when I need a pup sitter!”
“Pam is fantastic! I had a personal friend back our of sitting my dogs at the last minute so I contacted Pam, and within 30 minutes, she contacted me back and was ready to pick them up from my home! She clearly cares about the pups she sits for and obviously has experience with dogs of all types and ages. I loved how quick, courteous, and attentive she is. I would 100% recommend and use her again!”
“Kevin and his wife Piper took exceptional care of my golden retriever, Point! From start to finish, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. They went above and beyond by sending plenty of pictures, which really showed how comfortable and happy Point was during his stay, it meant so much to see him having such a great time. It’s clear they truly care about the dogs they watch and treat them like their own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I will most definitely be having them watch Point again. Highly recommend!”
“Leigh Anne did a wonderful job with our dogs, they were healthy and happy and loved when we picked them up. If we have occasion to need boarding again she will be our first call.”
“Emily was amazing! Gigi had the best time with Emily and her other pups while I was out of town. I appreciated how communicative Emily was during Gigi’s stay, especially because she sent so many pictures and videos of Gigi. I was so happy with how much fun Gigi was having. I’ll definitely book her again!”
“Enid and Joe are a godsend! They are passionate animal lovers and very knowledgeable about caring for our furry friends! They are just wonderful down to earth folks and very kind! We have two small dogs-one is highly anxious. So I worried about leaving him, but Enid was awesome in keeping me updated and even sent videos. There are no words to describe how grateful I am to have found such incredible boarders! I never had used River and was alittle apprehensive but Enid did a meet and greet with me and my dogs- I instantly felt the burden once I had met Enid and Joe- they are just ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!”
“Edna was AMAZING! I have 2 senior doxies and 1 has very bad eye sight. She took her time with them especially my doxie with the bad eye sight who moves slow. I recommend her to anyone and will rebook with her again. She was also nice to provide pictures and updates while they were staying with her. That was nice.”
“Cassandra did a fantastic job taking care of Roxy while we were gone. She even sent updates every few days. We will definitely use Cassandra again if she is available. Thank you!”
“Was in town for the weekend and my dog couldn’t stay with me at my hotel but it was fine because she was in great hands with Nicholas!! She is an Akita and she is a rescue so that can be a lot to handle but not for him: he even got her to socialize with his dog. So much so, that when I went to pick her up, they were still busy chasing each other around. Anyone who has dealt with a difficult breed or a rescue knows how much time is needed and I’m grateful!!Thanks again for helping out!”
“Cinthia did an amazing job caring for my cats! she immediately communicated with me about how they were adjusting, sent photos, and was very friendly and easygoing when I reached out on short notice. My cats loved her and her kids!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I was raised with labradors in the house. I currently have 4 very spoiled dogs (1 mini bernadoodle, 2 schnauzers, 1 chihuahua), 3 tabby cats, and two rabbits. I am a high school teacher looking for a way to combine my love for animals and need to earn some extra income. Since I am a teacher, I am home during the summer so my schedule is VERY flexible. I am also available during weekends and school breaks. Once school begins; I am available weekdays 5-8pm, weekends, and holidays. I have a half acre private fenced in yard. My dogs have access to the yard with a doggy door. I have a large mud room attached to the dog door and I use a baby gate to keep my dogs in the mud room when necessary. They were all crate trained as puppies. My cats typically stay upstairs in the house but they have access to the entire house. I am willing to pet sit in my house but your pet needs to be dog and cat friendly. I can come to your house to give your fur baby the time and attention they need. Cuddles, play, potty time, feed and water, etc.
About: Hi there!! I love both dogs and cats, and look forward to taking care of them. I've had many pets growing up. Habló Español también. As of right now I am available and flexible on time as school is out. I have been trying to find a second job, and would much rather prefer this to be my 2nd job as I enjoy going on runs with my dog and hanging out with my furbabies (I also have 2 cats). Why not make money while having fun and meeting new furbabies? I live near downtown Elkhart (heading towards Bristol). I live in a very safe and quiet neighborhood where there is plenty of space to walk, run, and enjoy a large field of grass (if allowed to be off leash).
“Fantastic! She took great in-home care of our high energy pups who usually struggle with separation anxiety - they did not! They were happy and well adjusted when we returned. She even replaced their treats - above and beyond. Thank you!”
“My dog, Gabi, really enjoyed her time over there. Andrea was great at communicating over Gabi's care. Gabi seemed excited to see me but wasn’t scrambling to get home the way she has in the past with other pet sitters. Definitely would recommend Andrea if your dog likes kids.”
“Mathew and Migchalee were fantastic watching Rudy! Updates with photos/videos were given daily which helped ease any worries and concerns on how my pup was doing. They took very good care of him; wouldn’t hesitate using them again if needed!”

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
