“Mary Jane and her partner were absolutely WONDERFUL! They were both very very communicative in sending pictures and updates daily. They treated my pup like their own, truly! Do not hesitate to book with them!!”
“She took such amazing care of my dog and truly treated them like her own. From the very beginning, she was professional, kind, and clearly experienced. What I appreciated most was how consistently she kept me updated. She sent regular messages, photos, and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away.”
“Celsei was amazing!! She sent tons of pictures and videos while we were away. Buddy had other dogs to play with and loads of love from the family. He came home tired and happy!”
“Amazing!!! I was so worried about leaving my kitten with someone else for the first time but I am so glad I did it with Katie. She even asked if I would like her to cut my cat’s nails for me and did a great job! Would recommend”
“Shy came back happy, bathed and sleepy— I would absolutely trust Tawny with Shy again. She even came back with the cutest paw print ornament for the holidays, too cute!”
“Our dogs loved staying with Deqi and Yann. We received daily photos, videos, and updates during their stay. They live near a dog park so the Jack Russell’s really enjoyed that. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Mason was just great! I knew Dude would be safe with him. I will definitely be using him again. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for this service. I’m just so grateful.”
“Trista was so great!! I have nothing but amazing things to say. I was nervous to leave my two dogs since I rarely do and it can be a bit stressful, but Trista really made sure that I knew they were well taken care of the whole time I was gone. I got plenty of pictures and updates, and she treated them like they were one of her own getting cuddles and laying up on the couch. Couldn’t of asked for better. Thanks Trista!”
About: Hello! My name is Savannah and I am a postdoctoral researcher in the biology department at IU. I have experience caring for all kinds of animals (dogs, cats, reptiles, fish and more). I have experience with small and large dogs, hyperactive/nervous dogs, as well as senior dogs so you can be assured that I know how to handle just about any dog personality. I am very responsible, considerate and dedicated to making sure your pets are happy and healthy. I consider it an honor to be welcomed into your pet’s life and take my job very seriously. Please feel welcome to ask me any and all questions you might have. Thank you so much for considering me! I cannot wait to hear from you and your pet! I have fairly flexible working hours as I largely can make my own schedule. I am available during the week and weekends as well as holidays. I have a fenced in yard if you would like your pet to stay with me, but I am also happy to take them for walks in addition to letting them play in the backyard. I have three dogs of my own that are all very friendly and I have ways to separate dogs from each other if need be so they don’t all have to interact at the same time.
“Kelly was incredible!! I'm truly wondering if our dog will be sad to come home because he loved staying with Kelly so much, haha. She sent so many wonderful picture and video updates. She took such good care of our dog and even gave him baths and daily walks and worked on commands with him. He learned so much just from staying there. I will definitely be using Kelly again and I will recommend her to my friends as well!”
“We are so grateful for the care Matthew and Ellie gave to our dog Marla. This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous. Matthew and Ellie let us come to their home to see everything and how more the would feel at their place. They are very open and respectful. Marla had a wonderful time they provided daily pictures. They were very responsive to any messages. They were in constant communication with us and were also very flexible when we needed to extend marvelous care. We are very pleased with how everything went and will definitely be using them again in the future. I especially appreciated how they seemed to not just see this as a job, but actually enjoyed having Marla as part of their family.”
About: I’ve been around pets all my life. Whether it has been through friends, grandparents or neighbors, I have helped care for dogs and cats alike! I enjoy getting to help out and spend time with them. I am fairly available during the week days for a drop in as I work in the early mornings and late afternoons at IU. I am also available for evening drop ins after 5. I care for pets in my home just as I would my own pet! Drop ins would work best for me as I am in at apartment currently!
“Eden has been very accommodating, proffessional, kind, provides good feedback and updates throughout the stay, sent me pictures and videos, bindoa my cat enjoyed playing around with her cat Aro, would definately recommend and personally would rebook in the future.”

Bloomington dog parents share their Rover experiences
What an amazing experience! This was my first time using Rover. Nora was absolutely amazing!! She took Gemma with short notice. I felt so comfortable and knew Gemma was going to be loved and well taken care of. I received lots of pictures through her time with Nora. Gemma loved her time and we are so grateful for Nora. Will definitely be choosing her to watch Gemma in the future.
Katie did such an amazing job with Winston!! He’s a big boy with a ton of energy but he was so happy to have his staycation ❤️❤️ Katie’s help gave us peace of mind and we will continue to use her as our primary Rover. Thank you so much for taking wonderful care of our boy!
Melissa and David always take excellent care of my puppy. Loved all the photos and videos they would send while I was away for a week. Chili Dog needs a lot of stimulation and loves to chase Milo around so I always feel like she's in great hands with them! Appreciate that they have a fenced in yard she can run in and they took her on nice walks at Bryan Park! 5/5 stars highly recommend
Katherine was wonderful with my dog! She took great care of Huxley. He is a very energetic dog and she kept him happy and well exercised through walks and play time. Huxley came back in a great mood and she kept me updated on how he was doing the entire time. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and hopefully I will be able to have her watch the pooch again.
Deqi and Yann took such good care of my pup for a week! I was grateful to know he was in good hands and they gave me plenty of updates. Their dog Shadow is a big sweetie, and helped my dog adapt to a different home. My dog can be nervous around big dogs, but within a couple days Deqi sent me video of the dogs playing together like old friends. They made sure my dog took his meds, and were willing to adapt around his separation anxiety. Also, they live within city limits and have a fenced area nearby for the dogs to exercise. Absolutely will book with them next time! Thanks to you both
Maggie and Brendan took great care of my furkid. She was comfortable and at ease from the moment she walked into their house and met them. I had never left my dog with sitters before and I was quite nervous, but the confidence and happiness my dog exhibited with them put me more at ease. Maggie and Brendan happily answered my questions, and it was clear when I visited that they actively maintain a safe environment for the dogs. They also have a beautiful and sweet dog that instantly became a friend. I'm very excited to find somewhere I feel comfortable boarding my dog. I will be booking with them again.
