“I interact with you very well, and vice versa. You are our go-to sitter of all time, now with Teddy as with Cindy. You are so tender and wise with our dogs.”

“We couldn't have asked for a better experience with our recent Rover sitter! She was absolutely fantastic while watching our dog, Scooby, for the week. From the start, she excelled at being adaptable, seamlessly adjusting to Scooby’s routine and needs without any issues. We also truly appreciated the frequent, reassuring text messages and photos she sent throughout the week, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, she provided Scooby with an incredible amount of love, affection, and exercise—he was a very happy pup when we returned. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”

“This was our first time booking Evelin, and she did a fantastic job house sitting for our two Labrador puppies. They were clearly excited to see her when she arrived, which immediately put us at ease. Evelin spent plenty of time playing with them in the yard, which is one of their favorite activities, and made sure they received lots of attention and exercise. We returned home to happy, tired, and well cared for puppies. We will definitely book with her again.”

“Sydney did a fantastic job being with our dog, Della. She shared comments with us while we were gone. This made us feel confident that the care she provided was important to her. We would definitely ask Sydney to care for our dog again! Thank you.”

“Ann did a great job caring for our senior, blind, diabetic dog. She was very kind, communicative, sent lots of pictures, and allowed us to never worry about our dog. I highly recommend her to care for your pet!”
About: Growing up, my house has always had at least three dogs (both big and small), and I could never imagine my life without pets. I currently live with a dog (pitty mix) and a cat (a cuddly gray tuxedo)! I adopted my dog about a year ago through a rescue, so I’ve also had some very recent training refreshers! I have taken animal husbandry - including first-aid on dogs and cats - courses throughout school, including learning how to care for exotic critters! I have cared for my dogs from the puppy stage to the senior stage, so I am familiar with what each life stage brings. Although I have more experience with dogs, I still love cats and spending time with them just as much. I have lived with my current cat for 3 years, and she has taught me many things about cat behavior and companionship! I have an understanding and love for every animal, and I can’t wait to meet yours! I work full-time (with the flexibility to step away for a quick drop-in) from 6am to 2-3pm Monday thru Thursday, and Friday 6am-11am. I am free anytime after work, and my weekends are typically open! I will treat each client’s home and belongings with the upmost respect and care. Cleanliness is very important to me, so you can expect to return to a clean and tidy living space. I will ensure that your pet will remain in a safe and healthy home while you are away. Leaving a pet with someone else can be scary, so I want to make the experience for the owner and the pet as peaceful and pleasant as possible.
“Ali was amazing - I had a last minute family emergency and she was able to accommodate staying with my dog, keeping me updated with details and photos. It looked like my dog had the best time with her! She’ll be my go-to moving forward!”
“Meta took great care of our 2 pugs. I felt totally comfortable leaving for 5 days and her caring for the dogs. We came home and the house was very clean. She even made us a delicious quiche. I am not saying everyone should expect a quiche, but that was very thoughtful! would deinately use Meta in the future. I highly recommend her.”

“Teagan did an amazing job pet sitting my dogs! She was very communicative and sent regular updates with pictures! I will definitely book her the next time I need a pet sitter! Thank you very much Teagan!”

“Sierra was fantastic! She saved us when our planned arrangement fell through and was very caring and responsible with our anxious poodle. When he got sick from worry she took him to the vet, gave him lots of extra care, and even organized a playdate with a new friend they met at the dog park. Definitely went above and beyond!”

“We just got back from a trip and Brenda was our house and animal sitter. She always takes such great care of our pets (1 dog and 2 cats) and our home. I cannot say enough good things about her. We have already reserved her for our next trip. Thanks so much, Brenda!”

“Julia was so pleasant and professional! She asked great questions to prepare for her time with Princeton, and you could tell she really cared - Princeton warmed up to her immediately :) I highly recommend Julia and would definitely hire her again!”


About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and have experience in oral med administration with both cats and dogs. I have a soft spot for the big dogs (they're lap-sized if you commit!). I run half marathons so getting good exercise in will be no problem (even in Wisconsin weather!). I'm currently training for distance running, so you can expect great exercise for your pet! Whether it's a long meandering sniff-ari or an intense loop around the neighborhood, I would love to know what fits your dog best. As I'm in your home, your instructions are paramount. You know your pet better than anyone, and I am happy to keep their normal routines in place. I like getting to know each animal and their unique personality, and while I *love* giving snuggles and pets, I understand some pets prefer their space.
“Jenna was just terrific. Our rescue dog G. is a very high needs dog, who needs a very special sitter friend. Jenna became a Greta-whisperer. We felt totally comfortable leaving town.”


About: I have been taking care of animals all my life. Growing up my parents always had dogs and cats. My best-friend growing up was my dog Samantha who just turned 15 is a sweet Belgian Mali. I work at Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation as a cook for the the Early Education Center. I work from 7am-1pm and then I am home with my dog Lyla and I enjoy going out and taking her out on walks/hikes to Fort Harrison and to the nearby parks in Lawrence. I have a fenced in backyard that dogs can run around in any time they would like too. I live on a quiet street just outside of 465.
About: I’m Dennis. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and I’m genuinely good with them. Neighbors ask me to watch their dogs on a regular basis and I love it Hey, I’m Dennis. I’ve been dog-sitting for years and I’m really good with dogs. My neighbors trust me with theirs all the time. I’m friendly, reliable, and I actually enjoy it. Happy to help with walks or sitting whenever you need. I’m reliable, easy-going and always on time. Happy to do walks or pet sitting as needed. Let me know if you have any special requests.
About: I’ve worked with dogs professionally for 3 years in the Kennel/Boarding industry. I’ve worked with all kind of breeds, small and big, and I’ve even worked with K9s. My favorite breed of dog is Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, but I love them all. I have an obsession with seniors and staffy/pit mixes that look like hippos. I work full time as a barber but have lots of free time in my schedule. Most days I get off of work at 5 and some days I have my mornings free. I respect other people’s spaces and will look after your home and your dog. After owning a dog myself, I know that they are people’s babies.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Blackhawk
Mandi was great with our dog. She was punctual and friendly. Our pup loved her (loves everyone though haha). She kept us updated throughout the evening while we were gone with pictures and messages. She comforted our pup when people were letting off fireworks unexpectedly. Would hire again!

Jesse sat for our 2 kitties for 3 weeks! She was absolutely fabulous! Regular check-ins, going the extra mile in every way to make the cats happy and making us feel comforted that she was taking tender loving care of them. She sent pics frequently and was conscientious about their meds and habits. Don’t hesitate to Grab Jesse she is a gem!!!

Poorna did an incredible job overnight sitting for our two dogs, Chopper and Ophelia, while we were away on vacation. She provided lots of updates and many great pics of them while we were away unprompted, and was an amazing guest in our house as well. We would recommend her to anyone and will be booking with her in the future.

Annalesse was so sweet and attentive while caring for our 15yr old beagle. We received plenty of updates and pictures and our mind was at total ease knowing she was there! She asked good questions and left the house nice and clean for us! We will most definitely be rebooking, thanks annalesse!!!!

Azaria did a great job house sitting with Ollie. This was my first experience with Rover, and it was nice to meet Azaria before we left on our trip. She sent daily pictures and updates. The house was very tidy when we returned. Will definitely choose her again.

It is safe to say that our kitties gave Jennifer a run for her money- one who hates strangers, the other who makes a break for the door when sitters try to leave! She handled all of it with grace and kindness. We were sent daily pictures and always felt our pets were in great hands.

Evelin was an absolute rockstar. She sat for our two older dogs and a rambunctious young one. We joked that the dogs are going to have unrealistic expectations of us now because Evelin was SO attentive with them. She sent constant pictures, and they were clearly loving the attention and love. She clarified any questions she had, and we felt totally confident that the dogs were in great hands—she followed up that she was following our instructions for feeding and meds. We would hire Evelin again immediately, and I’d recommend her to any pet parents, even if your dogs have some extra needs. If we go on a trip again, she’s our first call!
