About: I have owned a dog of my own for 8 years, starting at 4 months old. This has given me experience in puppy training and potty training. I can teach sit, stay, and lay down! I also have years of experience volunteering at the animal shelter, walking dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I have very open availability throughout the week, from morning to evening, as well as open weekends for any of your pet care needs including drop-ins, walks, or house sitting! I only provide care at the clients house. I can leash if there is not a fenced in yard, crate if needed, and any other specific requests.
“Karin was a great sitter for my 2 pugs. They loved her very much and she took great care of them. I would recommend her to any pet owner. I had her watching my pugs 5 days a week; however, there was a change in scheduling and that is the only reason she isn't doing it now. Great sitter!”
“Richard is very conscientious with our old guy. He always gives me great details so I know everything that happened during his visit. It makes leaving our dog so much easier.”
“Erin is incredible! She took time to let our shy girl get to know her and by the end of our trip Marigold and Erin were best friends! She sends the best update photos, and we felt like our girl was so well taken care of while we were away.”
“Anna did an awesome job taking care of our girl while we were put of town! She gave regular updates and shared pictures to help put our minds at ease while we were away! I didnt have to worry about a thing! Highly recommend!”
“I just had Will stay with my dog for the first time and he did great! Mabel is pretty high energy and she was very happy and relaxed when I got home. I will definitely use Will again :)”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’ve cared for my own pets my entire life, along with helping neighbors with dog walks, pet sitting, and daily care. I have experience caring for pets through every stage of life — from playful kittens and puppies to senior pets who need extra patience, attention, and monitoring. I’ve cared for both elderly cats and dogs with special needs, helped with vet visits, and understand the importance of noticing changes in behavior, energy, appetite, or overall health. I’m active, reliable, and love spending time outdoors, so I enjoy giving dogs fun, safe walks while providing pets with the comfort and care they deserve. I will treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for while you’re away I am currently a full-time Physician Assistant student. I have classes weekday mornings, but my afternoons and weekends are generally open and flexible. Most of my free time is spent studying, staying active, and being outdoors — so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I love going on walks and getting outside, and I enjoy being able to spend that time with animals while providing reliable, loving care. I live in an apartment with two roommates and a deck, with plenty of nearby outdoor space for walks and fresh air. I’m located right next to a trail and several pet-friendly areas, which makes it easy to provide pets with regular exercise and enrichment.
“Adam did an awesome job with my pups! Adam has cool vibes, communicates very well, and put my mind and heart at ease with my fur bumpkins. Even with a Reno project going on, Adam came through and assisted. Looking forward to the next time Adam gets to work with my trio!”
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs! I've spent almost 3 years at a doggy daycare, where I'm actively learning how to read dog body language, keep group and 1-on-1 time safe, and handle feeding routines. Over the years, I’ve gained experience working with a variety of personalities including dogs who are reactive or display aggressive behavior. I also have my own reactive dog so I understand firsthand how important it is to be patient, attentive, and consistent. Taking care of animals is something I truly enjoy, and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently working part-time, but I’m free most Mondays and Wednesdays from the morning through late afternoon. Fridays are usually open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., since I work at 2 p.m. Feel free to ask about other days too, and I can let you know what works for me 😊 I unfortunately can't provide space for your beloved pet as I have a reactive dog and cat. However, I believe that I'm able to make your pet feel comfortable in its own home even if you're gone. I can be playful but also relaxed. I will be able to give your pet plenty of attention when they want it!
“Lindi arrived on time and let Ethel be Ethel as the dog got used to seeing her visitor. After things calmed down and Ethel approached and sat with Lindi, we took a short walk around the neighborhood. Lindi is so calm and she asks very good questions to get to know Ethel better.”
“Amanda did a great job while I was out of town for a week. She kept me updated and sent me cute pictures. My senior kitty requires lots of care so it was great to know they were in good hands. Thanks again!”
“Kristina has been a really great pet sitter fir my two dogs. I was never worried when she came over and she even cleaned up after them on muddy days. I would definitely use her again.”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Broad Ripple is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Broad Ripple
Emily was great! She was very friendly throughout & very accommodating, both with timing a FaceTime to talk to me & my fiancée & be shown our house & with the actual sitting itself. She took great care of our little girl, Pumpkin. We got pictures & were reassured that she was doing alright. Pumpkin’s shy & she doesn’t always come out of hiding, so it was important for us to know if she did during a visit & that she was eating enough.
We were so pleased Laura was available while we were on vacation. This time we were gone longer than last time and the peace of mind that Sir Purrsalot, who is afraid of everything, already knew her from October and that Smudge, who is not afraid of anything and potentially destructive if left to his own devices being quite the kitten energy still and all. She provided daily updates with each visit and made sure they had everything they needed. Laura will continue to be our first choice and the boys also give 5 stars in appreciation of daily pets and Churu!
Kaarin was attentive and kind to our cats! I was very nervous using Rover for the first time while being away in another state, but working with Karin definitely relieved that hesitation for us. Im sure my cat looks forward to getting more treats and brushes in the future from her!!!
Bradley was wonderful with my cats and I plan to use them in the future with my dog. He was always on time and sent update photos and comments to make me feel at ease. He was tech savvy enough to understand the cat's automatic feeder and troubleshoot if necessary. He's friendly, punctual and reliable. I could not recommend him more and will be telling my friends and neighbors about him.
We have a geriatric cat so I am always nervous leaving her but I feel better knowing Jena will be checking on her while I'm away. This is the second time we have had Jena petsit our cats (1 geriatric, 1 crazy kitten) and I intend on requesting her services next vacation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Broad Ripple on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,295 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Broad Ripple. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
