“I cannot say enough great things about Chris and Kate! They provided a daily drop-in visit to check in on our kitties while we were out of town. Our playful kitty Lin met them at the door each day, our shy kitty Dottie quickly warmed up to them, and they were even able to spot our senior cat Smokey a number of times (before he ran off to hide, as he usually does, haha!) I also really appreciated the detailed notes and adorable photos of the kitties they sent us each day -- you could tell how comfortable the kittens were with them by the end of the week. It's such a relief to know your pets are being well taken care of when you're out of town! This was our first time using Rover, and I'm so glad to have had such a great experience with Kate and Chris! We will be booking them again in the future! :) Thank you!”
“Kelly did an excellent job!! She even got Willow (cat) to come out ,who never comes out when people she doesn't know are in the house. They were well taken cared for and were happy to see us when we got home without distress! We will definitely ask for her again when we leave town.”

“This was our second time having Zhalih and I couldn't be happier. She is absolutely amazing with my cat, Frazier. It's clear that she genuinely loves animals, she goes above and beyond to make sure he's not just cared for but entertained and happy. She even took care of his wrestling match with his litter! It's little things like this that show us just how wonderful people can be. My husband and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, especially one that truly cares. She is the best!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child and love animals. I currently don’t have any pets of my own because since we just put our two old poodles down I’m currently retired and have an open and flexible schedule. Weekends, weekdays, mornings, middays, and nights. I’m generally not available from midnight to 6 AM As a retired pet lover with a flexible schedule, I care for pets in their own home where they feel safest and most comfortable. I stick to their normal routine—meals, walks, playtime, and even meds if needed—to keep things low-stress while you’re away. I keep things calm, clean, and consistent, and always treat your pets and your home with respect. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or an overnight stay, I provide the same loving care I’d want for my own pets
About: Hi there! I’m Grace and I’ve had experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes since I was a young child. I’ve rescued several litters of kittens and love my rescue pup Drake who is a pit-bull lab mix. I’ve also had experience with pets with food allergies and elderly pets who need medications. I’ve been a pet sitter for friends and family in my hometown and wanted to get back into helping out others with their pets. The services I offer are mainly check-ins and walks but I may be able to do housesitting depending on my schedule! I’m more than comfortable with dogs of all sizes as I’ve had pup from 8 pound teacup yorkies to my 75 pound pit mix. Cats are also extremely welcomed! Thanks for considering me and I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I currently work full time, so I have evening check-ins or weekend availability! I may be able to make exceptions depending on the pets needs and my schedule. I will follow any care instructions provided to me to provide comfortable and comprehensive care and make sure to love on them as if they are my own!

About: I’m an animal science major with plans to pursue veterinary medicine, and caring for animals—especially dogs—is truly what lights me up. During high school, I was the go-to neighborhood dog walker, caring for dogs ranging from large breeds to small pups, which helped grow my confidence and love for working with all kinds of dogs. I also have four years of hands-on experience in a busy dog daycare, where I’ve worked with pups of all sizes, breeds, and personalities—from energetic zoomie experts to shy cuddle bugs. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique quirks and making them feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or just some extra belly rubs, I treat every dog like they’re my own. My goal is to make your pup’s time away from you feel fun, comfortable, and exciting. I currently work at a dog shelter where my shifts are either from 7am-12pm or 4-9pm. I am happy to work around your pups schedule with ahead of time notice! Before, after, and during my break your dog will have plenty of time to potty and play. When I visit a clients home I give all my love and care to them to make sure they feel happy while the owner is gone. I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, safe, and comfortable as possible. I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, including feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions, so they feel secure and stress-free.
About: I have had cats my whole life and I currently have 4 cats. All 4 are friendly lap cats and very bonded with me. They are “my boys”. I also have experience with a full size golden doodle and dog sit her when needed. I am a foster cat mom and enjoy volunteering in this role. I have a flexible job as I work out in the community. I can make stops through out the day. I do not travel much and have most weekends free. I enjoy cuddling fur babies in the evenings. I have small dog size crate and large, tall crate with levels which is great for cats. As a foster cat mom, I have plans in place to keep any animal safe and comfortable if needed. I scoop litter boxes a few times a day and work hard to keep my kitties area clean. I have a fenced yard and a cat proof screen going to my deck.
“Bill and Marie did an excellent job of taking care of our cat Holly. She is a shy cat and this was the first time that we had left her for an extended time period. After a few days she warmed up to them and sat on Bill’s lap. They watered our plants and shoveled the snow which was much appreciated. When we need someone to take care of Holly again we will definitely contact Bill!”

About: Hi there, I am pet sitting dogs and around dogs since I was a kid! I am a lover of all dogs and enjoy spending time playing, walking, and cuddling with all fur babies! I am currently a full time social worker with availability in the early mornings, evenings, and weekends for drop in visits, walks, and house sitting. I am comfortable spending time in other peoples homes. I have two sweet dogs of my own that mean the world to me, so I understand how important trusting and loving pet care is!
About: I own three dogs of my own all with medical issues so I have experience giving meds and taking care of multiple pets at once, I’m also a foster parent at wish bone canine rescue! I would love to help care for your pets! Im currently not working so I am free most of the time, I do have my own animals to check on and take care of but otherwise im open. I have three dogs so cannot care in my own home but I can care in yours! I will replicate your schedule as closely as possible to ensure a smooth transition and comfortability with your pets!
About: I am a teacher and have summers off! Let me and my sweet daughter help take care of your pet this summer. We are too busy during the school year to justify having our own pet, so let us spoil yours! I have lots of availability this summer- let's work something out! Just reach out and we can get something on the calendar- whether you need over night care or your furry friend needs a walk. We have a partially fenced in yard. We live close to the trial, so we will go on many walks. We have a leash outside as well as room to crate inside.
Bloomington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Malia has been great to work with. She was incredibly kind when we met, communicated clearly, and gave updates that were helpful without being overwhelming. She respected my preferences, used good judgment with the weather, and clearly prioritizes the dog’s comfort and safety. Luna took to her right away. I’d absolutely recommend her and will be continuing to work with her.

We had a wonderful experience with Kate & Chris taking care of Mika for three days. They were incredibly friendly, caring and patient with our dog which gave us so much peace of mind. We truly appreciate the love and attention they showed and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them would absolutely book drop-in visits with Kate & Chris again
