“Tucker was amazing — he took great care of my fur baby and provided pics regularly AND he was gracious and unflappable in the face of some unforeseen challenges. Flexible, great communicator, and left the house cleaner than he found it. Great with following directions and proactively taking care of all the things — he even noticed the light on the automatic feeder and refilled it before I even messaged him about the notification I’d received. Perhaps best of all, he saw AJ for the loving, playful kitty that he is—so I knew AJ was feeling comfortable and that he was in good, kind hands. Would definitely recommend to others and would be glad to have his help again!”

“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!”

“Maureen did a fantastic job taking care of our dog. She was reliable, friendly, clean, and responsive to all our messages. She even sent us photo updates reassuring us that all was going well. We will definitely ask for her help in the future!”

“Stephany watched our dog over the weekend and was great! She always communicated in a timely manner and even sent us some photos of our pup while we were gone. It was clear our dog and our house were well taken care of. Highly recommended!”


“Magan watched our pup Indie at our house while we were out of state for a few nights. She was amazing, posted lots of updates to her instagram for us to see, and Indie definitely loved her! He had plenty of playtime while we were gone ?.”


“Michelle did a great job watching my golden doodle! She made sure to ask lots of questions about his feeding and walking schedule and sent me daily pictures and updates during her stay. I would absolutely ask her to watch Vash again!”

About: Caring for dogs isn't just something I do. It's something I'm genuinely passionate about. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels, from young puppies learning routines to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to get to know each pet's unique needs. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, administering oral medications, crate training, basic puppy training, leash walking, playtime, and providing plenty of love and attention. I'm also attentive to changes in behavior or health and believe it's important to catch anything unusual early and communicate it with owners right away. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I make it my priority to provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they feel comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. Communication is very important to me. I'll provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to care for every pet as if they were my own and give owners complete peace of mind. Pet care is already a major part of my daily routine. My day is structured around caring for dogs, so adding walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or boarding fits naturally into my schedule. Because I'm already following consistent routines for feeding, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and cleaning, I'm able to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve rather than leaving them alone for long periods. Whether your pet needs a consistent routine, extra exercise, medication, or simply companionship, I'm committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I make sure every pet is in a clean, secure, and calm environment where they can feel relaxed and stress-free. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to behavior and overall well-being so I can quickly notice if something seems off and communicate right away. In my care, pets are never left unattended for long periods. I supervise interactions, provide structured playtime, and ensure a safe environment at all times—especially when introducing pets to new surroundings or other animals. I also respect the client’s home fully when providing in-home care, keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I understand how important trust is when someone allows you to care for their pet or enter their home, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable, while giving owners complete peace of mind through clear communication and reliable care.

About: Currently in medical school so looking to make some extra money. I’m always the first one asked to watch pets for friends, family, and classmates. I’ve got my own fur babies but I can never get enough and love to help ensure other peoples pets are well taken care of when they are away. I love to send photos to update owners. I’m currently in school with a reduced schedule for the summer so I’m able to have a flexible schedule right now. Come fall things will be different I’m used to working with pets who have all manner of needs and personalities. I’ve always been good about making a good bond with new pets and respecting their personal space while also keeping them entertained and safe.
About: My name is Jiayi H, go by Joyce. I live in a 2 story house (basement and first floor are dog-friendly) and our house surrounded by park and trails so it will be a lot of running around and playing time if your dogs stay here with me. I have a lovable, friendly 5-year-old Australian Labradoodle, Luca, that I spoil silly as I will with you pup as well. I have puppy training experience, raised Luca from 8 week, and took care of 13 yrs old dog for 3 months. My schedule is flexible so I can usually take on new dogs at a moment’s notice. I love taking pictures and videos of them so you will feel updated and can enjoy your time away knowing that you will have no worries. I’m working from home so most of my time will be caring your pup and Luca. Daycare drop off at 7:00-8:30 am and pickup hours are between 5-6 pm. Any time after 6 pm please let me know as soon as possible, and I can offer boarding or extended hours as well. I have unfenced yard, one dog crate, and playpen for puppies. For daycare and boarding, I will walk your dog 2 times a day, including 20-min walks in the morning and after dinner; will also do 2 potty breaks at noon and bed time.
“Absolutely wonderful experience! Our pups were happy and calm when we returned home from a long afternoon/evening away. Tatyana definitely understands how to handle large, rambunctious (and love and adorable) dogs. She sent me pics throughout the evening as well, which was so lovely to receive.”

“We cannot say enough good things about Jessica’s care of our dear older cat! Jessica was very conscientious of the cat’s medication needs and was a great communicator with us. I felt totally comfortable having her be in our house while we were away and she went above and beyond in keeping it well cared for too. Would absolutely recommend Jessica for your pet care needs.”


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.
“I think my cats might like Maya more than me 🤣 She's always so good at following up after each visit with details and pictures, which puts us at ease. Even when I change the instructions in their plan, Maya is sure to review those changes and carry them out flawlessly. She communicates any time she has questions. She even informs us of any unusual litter box activity, which is so helpful with kitties that have health issues! Thanks Maya!”


About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was old enough to know what a pet was, whether it’s my own, a neighbor’s, or a friend/family member’s. I love animals, and am considering going into vet work! I have experience with both puppies/kittens and seniors as well :). I can walk, feed, give meds, and do anything you need! I’m a full-time student during the week, but I will always have time to drop-in, or stay overnight. I’m very flexible with my scheduling, so I will happily do whatever you and your pet need! While I can’t offer boarding at my home because I have four roommates, I will care for pets in every way possible no matter what! I know some nice parks for walks, and I’m also happy to chill if they’re a homebody! Again, entirely up to you and your pets needs :)
“Rebecca was perfect for our two cats and our home on our almost-two-week vacation. By sending photos almost every day and giving us updates about our cats, we were able to feel secure about their care and let go of worries. Both of our cats needed medication which did not daunt Rebecca. One of our cats had an existing condition which was causing her to lose hair and Rebecca stayed on top of it and even called our vet on a particularly concerning day when she was unable to reach us--Rebecca offered to make an appointment with the vet for the week we returned home. We were impressed with her initiative. We also have close to 50 indoor plants and many outdoor plants that Rebecca watered on schedule. She left the home tidy and clean and the cats feeling loved and cared for emotionally and physically. We highly recommend Rebecca!”

“Monica went above and beyond! Our dog really had a great time with her and Bella, and the kitties also loved her. She sent lots of photos every day, and our dog also took me to her house once we got home because she missed her! I highly recommend Monica for all of your pet care needs.”


About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a little girl. I grew up in a house who always had some type of animal and learned how to love on them and give them the attention they need. I am currently at home and have a lot of time on my hands. I’m very flexible and cooperative with my schedule and willing to give any animal love and support. I have an invisible fence for my two dogs. One of my dogs has a crate he sleeps in and the other sleeps in whatever bed she wants that night.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Blackhawk
We've been having Annalesse watch our 15 yr old beagle for the last two major trips we've taken, and we've never been more at ease. It's been a journey to find a reliable, caring, and clean, communicative sitter and she's been an absolute blessing to work with. The house is always spotless and doesn't even look like anything has been touched when we return. We get updates and pictures without having to ask and she willingly cleans up any mess our pup makes which unfortunately happens more often with her old age. On our last trip we weren't returning until late and we were so impressed that made efforts to adjust her schedule just so that our girl wouldn't have to be alone longer than she needed to be. Consider yourself lucky if you have Annalesse watching your furry loved ones❤️

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.

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!
