“OMG, ERIC & Sylvia absolutely rock. We are so thrilled to have found a couple that we can rely on to give us peace of mind when we travel. Our furry babies receive five star care from them and we couldn’t be happier with there service.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved caring for them! I’m experienced with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’m very patient, attentive, and affectionate with every pet I meet. Friends and family have trusted me for years to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies, shy pets, and senior animals that may need extra attention and care. I truly treat every pet like my own and love making them feel safe, happy, and loved! I've always had pets growing up and currently have 2 kitties and a pitbull! I'm currently a waitress Wednesday through Sunday! My shifts are usually in the evening and run pretty late. Because of that, I’m most available during mornings, afternoons, and on Mondays and Tuesdays! Pet care fits really naturally into my routine since I’ve always been around animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m very flexible with check-ins, walks, feeding schedules, and giving pets lots of love and attention! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from owners. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet, so I treat every animal like they’re my own and make sure they get lots of attention, patience, and affection. I’m also respectful of clients’ homes, keep spaces clean, and always prioritize your pet’s safety and happiness!
“Charlotte did an excellent job with my dogs and I could see in the pictures how comfortable they were with her. This was the first time I had someone come in to help and I was instantly amazed at how much the dogs liked her. I would recommend Charlotte to anyone looking for assistance and hope to use her again in the future.”
“Lynn was amazing! She took such good care of our cats while we were gone. We have an elderly cat who is prone to accidents and she took care of all them, even washing the litter boxes before we got home. For the first time ever, our house didnt smell like cat boxes when we arrived home. Thank you, Lynn!”
“Mike is great with Sapphire! I always get feedback and pictures every visit, and Mike follows all instructions to a T. My dog feels safe when I'm away because of this special care she is getting and it is greatly appreciated. Perla & Michael C. are #1 on the Rover app!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life but in the previous 5 years is when I started to watch and take care of them more often I have plenty of time during the week and or weekends to watch 1 or multiple animals. I can stay overnight or do multiple drop in visits a day. I will make sure I have eyes on them on the whole time and tend to their needs when they need something. I will never walk them without a leash and steer away from other dogs being walked when I’m walking yours.
About: For the past 6 years I have been dog sitting and I love it! I started sitting privately and then worked at a doggy daycare. I have been doing Rover for over two years and I enjoy every minute of it. I have experience with many different breeds. I have worked closely with large dogs and small dogs, old and young dogs. I make sure to send lots of pictures while you’re away and prioritize play time, make sure to always get walks in, and most importantly have lots of cuddles while you’re gone! I am currently a college student, so I am free all of summer. I make it a priority to be there for your pets multiple times throughout the day. I know how important it is to provide play time, snuggles, and treats for when they know you’re away. I understand dogs body language and love to see their personalities. I always make sure to follow your normal schedule as best I can, making sure your pups are always comfortable and get lots of love while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up around all different types of dogs: Maltese poodles, labs, Frenchies, bulldogs, and more! I’m an occupational therapy assistant looking to make some extra income and share my love for furry friends! Currently I am on summer break and I am available for walks and visits any time of day. I am also available on weekends with booking in advance. I am comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and strengths! I am very aware of my surroundings on walks and will take any precautions to ensure your furry friend is safe!
“I’m so glad I found Wendy! She was sweet, prompt, and left detailed reports and pictures so I knew our dog was being well taken care of while we were away. I look forward to booking with Wendy again.”
“Taylor and Joseph were punctual, compassionate, caring sitters. New service for my 2 babes, Westies, Ella and Skye they fell right in place with following their schedules and Ella's medication needs. Kept lines of communication open with photos and messaging. We could not have been more pleased.”
About: Hi! My name is Bree, and I am a lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to help care for your pets while you're away. Animals have always been a part of my life, and I have owned dogs for as long as I can remember. Currently, our family shares our home with a dog, a cat, and a flock of chickens, so I am comfortable caring for a variety of animals and understand the importance of providing reliable, attentive care. My husband and I live in Zionsville with our three children, and we stay actively involved in our community. I work at our local middle school during the school year and have a very flexible schedule throughout the summer. In addition to caring for my own pets, I volunteer extensively with my children's activities. I serve as the treasurer for my daughter's club soccer team, help my husband run our youth lacrosse program, and enjoy participating with my son in Boy Scouts. Whether your pet needs a drop-in visit, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, or a walk, I will treat them with the same love and attention I give my own animals. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am on summer break from our local middle school where I work during the school year. I am available Monday thru Fridays, morning/afternoon/evenings, and occasionally on weekends. I am available for daily drop-in visits and check-ins to feed, walk, play with, and give your pets the attention and companionship they deserve. Whether your pet needs a potty break, exercise, playtime, fresh water and food, or simply a friendly visit while you're away, I am happy to help.
“Ann Marie was fabulous with my Lab. I would highly recommend her. She made availability to have a meet and greet prior to pet sitting. He was comfortable with her immediately, which gave me comfort when leaving him. Super communication and very accommodating.”
About: Animals have always been a piece of my heart. I love every single breed of dogs. I’m always the one someone calls when they need a pet sitter. I care for the animals like no other. I have worked in the doggy daycare/ boarding industry for 2 years, I am a farm girl at heart. I have owned many animals including horses, goats, pigs, chickens, turkeys, & roosters! Right now I am unemployed since I had a cross country move. I am available all day everyday to sit with your pup, play, walk, whatever you would need me to do! I have my own Golden Retriever and Siberian Husky that loves to play. You will always catch my golden and I at the dog park. We love to play fetch!
About: We have owned, rescued, and fostered many fur babies, including seniors and those that have medical needs and hospice care. Fur babies are unconditional love! I am retired and have a lot of time for fur babies. Taking care of fur babies are what keeps me active and, on the go. I have a fenced yard and three smaller dogs that love to play and cuddle. My home is more suited for fur babies then humans!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 3,523 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Barto. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Barto stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Barto choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 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 Barto with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Barto. On Rover:

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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.
