“Christina is awesome! Because of my job, sometimes my requests are super last-minute. She’s been awesome with working around my schedule. My pup had a blast at her place and came home exhausted. She will continue to be my go-to sitter!”
“Rex had an amazing stay with Andrew and Jane! we would definitely have him stay there again, they were great with communication and sent us videos and photo updates.”
“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!!!”
“Lynnette provided excellent care for our dog while we were away for the weekend. She is very thorough and professional in her approach to care, and her home had a wonderful set up to make our dog's stay comfortable. Very quick response times on all communication and we received lot of updates and pictures to confirm he was having a good time. Highly recommend!”
“Deseo expresar mi agradecimiento por el cuidado brindado al Gordo durante estos tres días. Se evidenció un manejo responsable y atento en todo momento, así como la paciencia necesaria para atenderlo adecuadamente. Me generó confianza saber que estaba en buenas manos. Ha sido una experiencia satisfactoria.”
“I was a little leery to leave my dog with a total stranger even though he adjusts very easily. As soon as we met Lilliana I could see that thing's would be ok. Jack adjusted to her and the surrounding's very easily and I felt very confident leaving him with her. I highly recommend her.”
“Pam did a wonderful job with our two dogs. They were boarded at her home. We got daily updates, photos and videos. We have one very timid dog that she was very patient with and eventually our dog warmed up to Pam. Five star rating. Couldn’t recommend more highly Will use again.”
“This was our first time using Rover for one of our dogs so I was a little nervous. Janis sent pictures of our dog every day while we were gone. I felt very comfortable leaving Remy in her care. Our pup seemed happy and well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her to someone and will be reaching out again if we ever need a sitter. Thanks, Janis!”
“Kimberlee and her family loved our dog as if he were their own. They even gave us some training tops for our young dog. I will return again and again for such excellent care!”
“Thanks so much, Emily & Ryan! We appreciated all the picture updates, and Calvin obviously had a wonderful time. You guys were always quick to respond, helpful, and flexible. We hope to book again in future.”
“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!”
“Thank you to Miss Mary and her family for taking such good care of my dogs. I don't know what else I could have done with two large breed dogs other than a kennel - that wasn't an option after previously using a kennel service and my poor dog came back to us so thin and sad! I dread the thought of ever putting another one of my dogs through that terrible experience - I would rather not take a vacation! We feel very fortunate to have met Miss Mary - a very friendly and loving individually that I would definitely ask to take care of my dogs again, knowing for sure that my dogs are being well cared for. Thank you very much for relieving my family of that area of stress when wanting to get away for awhile. ”
“Jeremiah was very knowledgeable about dogs and very personable. We took our two French bulldogs to Jeremiah for an overnight stay. He was very willing to learn the puppies’ routines. When we picked them up they appeared happy and well cared for. We will take them back!”
“Paul & Kelly took excellent care of Dewey and were easy to work with. I came over before my trip for a meet & greet and they were very reassuring. I got regular updates & pictures. Dewey loved the big yard & got lots of gentle attention & play time from the Boys.”
“Victoria took really good care of Beans, kept me updated and always responded to my messages quickly. She was kind and had a great environment for pups. She took her for walks and let her sleep with her in the bed. Beans had a great time there!”
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.

100% of Walkerton sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Walkerton landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Walkerton 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 Walkerton.
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.
You and your Walkerton 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.
