About: Hi! We are a family of 5 (mom, dad, and 3 girls whose ages are 16, 18, and 20) who love animals, being outdoors, and hanging out together. We are home almost every day because we homeschool. We are always walking and riding bikes around our neighborhood and love to go hiking, and also enjoy a nice evening relaxing by our fire and curling up with a good book. We offer a lower price because we know pet care can get expensive fast! We are always looking for ways to serve the community and this is one of the ways we can do it. The love and attention your pet will receive from my family is priceless! I've had a dog all my growing up life at home. We owned probably 5 different dogs and loved them all. Now my girls love dogs and thoroughly enjoy romping in the backyard. We homeschool and I work from home, so lots of attention will be lavished on your pet. My girls will always make sure your pet is comfortable! We always love to send photos! We know it eases our minds when we are away to see pictures of our dogs, so we send regular updates to you! We have a large yard with a section fenced off for quick potty breaks.
“Jackie was absolutely amazing! Sent us so many pictures and videos, and took such great care of our babies. Would 1000% book her again. Thank you Jackie! Our babies loved you.”
About: I've always cared for animals, and I'm willing to go above and beyond for animals who need help. Owners need help as much as their animals do! I'm currently out of work, so willing to do anything for animals to make ends meet. If I can help every animal and owner, I will. Inside other's homes I will do everything in my power to keep it as it was when I first enter. There is nothing to deter me from maintaining proper care.
About: Animals are too good for humankind, so they should be treated like absolute royalty. I grew up with cats and had a small but successful dog-walking and pet-sitting business in my neighborhood growing up. I am more than happy to treat your pet as if they were my own <3 I currently work full time in Lake George and I'm looking for some additional income, and what better way to do that than to care for your pets! To make sure your pet feels as comfortable as possible while you are away, I would love to learn their typical routine at home and their interests!
“Makinzie was amazing!! She was able to help us last minute which was extremely helpful. She sent lots of photos and her communication was great. She even went out of her way to clean up after our dogs and bring a package in for us. Definitely will be using her again!”
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.
“Justina did an excellent job caring for our three cats while we were away. She provided frequent updates and amazing photos that gave us peace of mind and showed that our fur babies were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear she took the time to make sure they received plenty of attention and care during each visit. We came home to three happy cats and felt completely confident that they were in good hands while we were gone. We highly recommend Justina and will definitely be booking with her again in the future! 🐾💕”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and understand that every pet has its own personality and needs. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every dog, cat, or other pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic medications, or simply giving extra attention to senior pets, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also pay close attention to routines and instructions so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care that keeps pets happy and stress-free. Im currently working part time right now so I have a lot of extra free time on my hand & would love to take care of all animals during my free time Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel relaxed and secure. I’ll make sure they always have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise if needed, and a clean environment. I’ll also keep doors, gates, and leashes secure, pay close attention during walks and playtime, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet with the same care, patience, and respect that I would give my own.
“Skylar did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats while I was away for 2 weeks on business. My cats warmed up to her quickly. The care was complicated by some medical issues with my cats, and the fact that I had just recently moved to a new place, but she handled everything fantastically and kept the cats happy and healthy”
“Eren and Luca are great ! Felt so reassured that our cats were getting great care , the senior boys need some extra attention and they were great . Communication was spot on and pictures were wonderful. Will definitely use them again”
“I've met Kat twice so far for my dog (and me) to get to know her, she's very reassuring and I feel comfortable having her stay here when I go on vacation. I cant wait to finally get to go on vacation!!! ☺”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs big and small since I was 10. I have grown up my whole life with two dogs at all times so I’ve gotten a good bearing on how to treat and work with dogs. Neighbors and friends call me whenever they need dog sitters because they see how well I am with their dogs. I work Monday through Friday from 8 AM–5 PM, but I’m available for morning walks before work or evening walks after work! On weekends, I have a flexible schedule and can walk your pup anytime throughout the day. 🐾💕 I treat every dog the same whether they are 1 or 15, with the love and care they deserve. I believe that all dogs should be treated well and not neglected for their needs. If you are just starting to train your puppy, I want to help on that journey to make life easy on yall. But if your dog is sick and needs to be walked slower or given medications, I have plenty of experience with that as well! Being a well rounded human caring for animals is so important to me which is why I try to life out that statement.
“Brittany was amazing! Basqui was in great hands and I can tell she enjoyed her company when I returned. She had great communication, was punctual and shared pictures throughout her time with Basqui. I would highly recommend Brittany.”
About: Ever since I was a little girl I had dogs in my life! I grew up with two little west highland white terriers who were the most energetic loving dogs I could ask for as a kid. Later we welcomed our golden-doodle into our family who has protected us and made us laugh everyday! He’s now 10 years old! For about six years dog sat for a neighbor who had a boxer and English bulldog. I dog walked and house sat for three summers for a goldendoodle and for three years dog sat for lab/mutt mix, two pugs and a cat. I also take care of my sisters two Rhodesian ridgebacks one who is 6 years old and one 5 month old as well as my other sisters golden retriever who is 5 months old. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I remember and every day they show me what it’s like to be loved. I am taking some time off before starting Physician Assistant school, so I have a good amount of time throughout the week to take care of your pets! I am very in tune with my dogs needs at home and love just spending time with whether it’s relaxing in the couch, going for walks or sitting in the grass. I understand some dogs may need to be crated or if there is no fenced in yard, they need to be leashed when outside. I can accommodate any need for your pets in your home!
About: I have had several dogs in my life . I love dogs and enjoy my two cavapoos ! My daughter loves animals and would enjoy watching other dogs I work from home . I am available for day drop offs or over night boarding . Please don’t hesitate to ask and I will work to fit in watching your dog 🐶 I have a fenced in yard . I have a crate if needed . My dogs are part of the family and treat them as so. I will provide lots of love and treats !!
About: I've been around animals my whole life chickens, cats, dogs, ect and I've had my own dog for about 7 and a half years while taking care of other people's dogs and cats I'm pretty flexible with my schedule and right now, my current job schedule is 3p-11p every Friday and 3p-11p every other weekend. By the end of August I will be busy on Wednesday afternoons I have my own car so in the event of any mishap, emergency, or just a change of scenery for your pet I can provide that. I'm also very detail oriented so I ask many questions to ensure I know as much as possible about your pet so that they can be safe and happy in your absence.
“I would highly recommend Emma to anyone!! She is always great with our dogs and you can clearly tell they all love her and are always so happy to see her. She has cared for our senior dog before he passed away, who needed some extra TLC. Now she takes care of our two very strong, high energy pit mixes. She has administered medication to all of our pups when needed with no issues. She’s also great at communicating with any general questions, concerns or updates. I am confident that our pups are always in safe hands with Emma!”
About: I have watched dogs for 5 years, and I have a dog of my own who I watch when my parents go out of town. I love spending time, playing, and taking care of all dogs and cats. I am athletic; I play college basketball and would love to take your pet on a walk or run around the yard. I am currently coaching during the mornings every day, I am free during the afternoon after 12, to sit or walk your pet. I am very flexible when it comes to the requirements you leave me for your pet. I think gentle is the best approach. I also can crate your pet if that is a requirement, I have done that for family friends many times.
About: *** In MOST cases, I NEED to bring my dog with me for overnight stays. Please take that into consideration BEFORE you reach out to me. If you just need day time care I can be a bit more flexible on the above. Thank you for understanding. *** :) I love animals, but dogs have a special place in my heart. Your animals will be well cared for when I watch them. I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I have a dog of my own- an almost 3 year old German Shepherd-who would have to come with me while I sit for you. I know our pups will have tons of fun playing together! My goal is to try and treat your pets like my own. I will make pets feel cared for and loved, even when their owners are not there. I work 6-4, Monday-Thursday. Monday is a work from home day and the rest of the week I’m in the office. (some flexibility on this, as I could stay home to work while dog sitting) I’d be happy to watch dogs during this time, but they will be long days if I can’t stay home. Because of this, the weekends are the best times for me to take care of pets, but I’d be happy to watch pets during the week if needed. I want to be there for your dogs needs. I’d be happy to accommodate any way I can. I make sure pups have adequate daily exercise, anything from parks, walks around the neighborhood, running in the backyard or playtime in general. I want you dogs to feel comfortable and safe in my care

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
