Get to Know Rover’s Recess

The Best Pet Care Choice for the Happiest Pets
Rover’s Recess has been serving Valparaiso since 2007. We provide full-service pet sitting and dog walking services. Rover’s Recess pet sitting company comes to your home, so your pet can interact with our team in the comfort of their own environment.

Our company was founded on a love of pets. Our founder, Laurie Robinson, discovered a gap in the pet care choices in our region. She knew that without reliable, professional dog walkers and pet sitters, Valparaiso’s pets were not getting the best care while their owners were away. With this mission in mind and the passion to fulfill it, Rover’s Recess quickly became the number one choice for pet care in our area.

Nearly twenty years later, Rover’s Recess continues to be the go-to pet care company in Valparaiso. We remain dedicated to fulfilling pet’s needs for healthy exercise and companionship while their owners are away.

Your pet’s wellbeing is our priority and providing you with superior customer service is just one way we fulfill that promise.

The Rover’s Recess Difference

Our team includes experienced, vetted, and dedicated pet sitters and dog walkers. We pride ourselves on being better than the “big guys.” From one-on-one meet-and-greets prior to paying for your pet’s first appointment, to only hiring walkers and sitters that demonstrate the same commitment our company was founded upon, Rover’s Recess is ears-and-tails above the competition.

What makes us different from other pet sitting and dog walking services?

Our small but thriving local business caters to your pet’s needs better, with more personal attention and superior communication. Each pet parent interacts directly with our owner, rather than an anonymous app.

Each of our team members is pet CPR certified and first aid certified. And while certifications matter, safety and trust do, too. This is why every one of our team members goes through a background check and drug screening prior to employment. We also fully train each of our staff to ensure they meet our rigorous standards for exceptional pet care.

With a commitment to safety, excellence, and customer service, we provide the best local pet care. We demonstrate our dedication to safety, fun, and reliability for every pet, every time.
