“Traci is an amazing dog sitter always sends pictures with funny captions of what happened during her visit! She is very flexible and truly learns your pups behaviors. Makes leaving your fur baby with her less stressful.”
About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 5 when I got my first dog, and I've been caring for animals ever since! I've cared for many different species, such as dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, cows, fish, and a couple of reptiles! I'm always looking for new animal friends and would love to meet yours! I'm currently a full time college student, and have two classes a day. I will be available for pet care at all hours other than 10-11am, and 12-1pm during my classes. I have a nice big hallway for your pet if a kennel is needed, and I have great access to a nice, safe walking path, plus a big yard for pets to play. I am very adaptable and can make anything work!
About: I have a cat that I have been raising since June of last year since he was a little kitten. I love and cherish him and have learned a lot of patience over the past year while raising him. I also have a love for dogs and I have a little experience with them as well. I am a self-employed delivery driver, so I have a lot of free time, and I am flexible but right now I am only able to accept morning care for pets. I stick to routine and consistency when it comes to pets because that is what works best in most situations. If the pet has no structure in its life and its environment is full of chaos, then that leaves room for pet aggression and may cause the pet to be out of control. I also making sure to give them plenty of play time can reduce a lot of misbehavior and disobedience.
About: We grew up we were always the one getting asked to watch/feed/check on everyone’s animals and I really love still being able to do this!! I (Emily) currently work for myself doing my cleaning business around central east Indiana and this always me to care for more animals! My schedule is flexible during the week! We have a privacy fence in our backyard that also leads to a big park that rarely anyone visits that has a big open dog park with it! Our own animals get feed 3 times a day and we have a cat room separate from the dog area.
About: I have had pets since I was little, and am very knowledgeable in dog behavior. I have been in daycare settings for children, so I will treat your pups care like I do with daycare kiddos, I will be very communicative to you, and send you pictures. I have trained multiple puppies in my lifetime, and have had a couple of senior dogs. I have had Labs, one Doberman, and Pugs. I have also raised two litters of puppies. Currently, I have an English Bulldog/Sharpei mix who is 11 months and constantly learning new things about behavior, and how to manage it. I am always learning new things about dog behavior and training as it is one of my passions. I will treat your fur baby as my own. I am excited to get to know you and your fur baby. Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine because I am at home and I am excited to start taking care of other peoples pets. On the weekends at the moment I can fit in some later shifts, it is not listed, however I can. I will care for your pets the way you want me to take care of them. Tell me what you want me to do, and I will do it. These are your babies. I want to learn everything about them and care for them the way you care for them.
About: My family has always owned a dog. Ever since I was young, my family and friends have relied on me to care for their animals, whether it be a walk, or an overnight sit. I’m a current Ball State Social Work grad student and love paying visits to the local Animal Shelter in my free time! I am a part time grad student at Ball State University, and also work part time at a daycare. I still have a lot of free time I’d like to fill throughout the week doing something I love, like taking care of animals. I am very attentive when it comes to caring for other peoples babies. Safety for myself and the pet is my number one priority. I do have a fenced in big back yard, and I also live right next to campus!
About: I actually started watching dogs and cats for families I was babysitting and nannying for while they were out of town about four years ago. About 90% of my experience is with extended dog sitting in the owners home. While watching the dogs I not only let them out to potty but also walk them, play with them, and clean up any messes whether chewed or accidents that may occur! I have some owners who like me to stay overnight and others who do not and I am completely okay with either way. I am also comfortable administering medicine or changing bandages. I am always up for taking your dog places too, a dog park or for a bath or simple for a drive! I’m comfortable with cats, dogs, and a plethora of other animals. I can care for any of your loving animals! I hope to get to know you and your fur babies in the future! I currently am a stay at home mom. I have one school age child and a toddler. I am looking for bookings to be able to stay at home with my girls (and my two pups of course). School drop off/pick up is for a short time in the morning and in the late afternoon. Any walks or drop-ins would be scheduled around school drop off and pick up times! I care for pets as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This can look like feeding on schedule, giving fresh water, administering medications if needed. Each visit includes some play and cuddles too so they feel just as loved as when you are there!
About: Have dog sat for multiple friends and family over the years. This has involved taking dogs on walks, playing, grooming, feeding and spending time with their dogs. I am currently a junior nursing student working a part time job at an hospital and looking to help take care of your furry friends in my spare time! I have three animals of my own I have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I would take care of your animals as if they were my own! I have always been an animal lover.
About: I will train the puppies how to give commands. Training will be conducted according to the pet habits of different customers. Dog walking, feeding and bathing services are also available. I can provide you with the status of your pet in real time, so that you can clearly understand the daily actions of your pet and record it. I will take classes every Monday and Wednesday, and I can do part-time work the rest of the time. I can take care of pets from 2pm to 8pm. If you have any other needs, please contact me in advance and I will arrange the time. We connect the cage to the backyard so that the pets can come and go freely. I accept each client's feeding style and I hope we can communicate before the appointment so that I can make a reasonable feeding based on your situation. I will take care of pets in your home, I will protect your personal property, and I will carry a video camera with me for recording.
About: I’ve have been a dog owner for over 15 years. I have taken care of animals as young as a puppy and senior dogs. I have also cared for small animals. I work from home on Mondays. I do work in office Tuesday through Friday but home on the weekends with full availability. I do have help at home so someone is always present to take dogs out to potty! My dogs do have a fenced in backyard and can run and play. I can walk dogs if needed. I also can take care of fish and small animals. I have two Guinea pigs at home!
About: I grew up with dogs and cats all through childhood. I currently have two dogs, a Husky I have had for 5 years and a Dutch Shepherd I have had for 3 years. I previously also had a German Shepherd for 7 years who passed away from degenerative myopathy. All 3 of my pups have been rescues. I love animals of all shapes and sizes. My dogs are my family and I would treat your pets the same any time I took care of them 😊 I work nights on a rotating schedule (12 hour days) so I’m fully available on all days off and available in the late morning/afternoons on the days I work. My dogs are very friendly and love other dogs. My previous dog was senior with severe degenerative myelopathy, so I have experience caring for pups with physical issues and limitations.
About: We’ve had animals since our whole life, me and my partner love to take care of the animals and would love to meet all of your animals and to take care of them, take them on a walk, etc I’m currently working part time, my partner, Taylor is a online college student so we have a lot of time between us to go and take care of the animals whenever it is needed (: When I’m at your home I’d watch them all the times, put on leash everytime we go out or go on a walk, make sure they’re keeping themselves busy
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old, babysitting family and friends dogs along with taking care of my own dogs. I’ve been around them for as long as I can remember! I currently work three 12 hour shifts a week at the hospital, but I am looking to fill my days off with some doggy care! I will care for your dog at your home in the best way that I possibly can! I have a small dog of my own, I treat him as if he’s my child and I will do the same for any and every dog I take care of:)
“Ashlyn did I wonderful job of taking care of my cat! Hired her for drop in visits and she did amazing. Very attentive to instructions and great communication. My kitty loved her and I would definitely recommend her/will be using her in the future if I need to!”
About: Your pet won’t just be watched, they’ll be genuinely cared for, safe, and spoiled! I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and have hands-on experience working in doggy daycares, boarding facilities, and a veterinary clinic. I’m trained in administering medications, reading dog behavior, and ensuring each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I truly treat every pet like family and enjoy getting to know their unique personalities. I prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication, treating every pet with the same level of care I would expect for my own. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry friend and provide them with a safe, happy environment while you’re away! I am home full time as a stay at home mom of 2! i am able to do drop in visits as well as daycare! I have a larger fenced in yard, and have been trained to watch for social cues in animals when in a group setting. Animals are in and out all day long for potty breaks and play breaks outside!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Anderson with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
