“Kathy took great care of my 2 dogs and cat. She left great details and photos of every drop-in. She was responsive to my messages and followed all instructions for care. I would 100% rebook Kathy for future jobs!”
“Nakia did a great job with Sophie. She was on time, text me with the status of how Sophie was doing during her visits, and provided pictures of their little walks. Soph seemed like she had been well cared for during our time away. I will contact Nakia for future Rover needs!! Highly recommend.”
About: I have been pet sitting since sixth grade, as well as having two dogs of my own at home. I have experience in all kinds of pet sitting. I was very involved in 4-H, so I have all kinds of animal experience. I am a college student home for the summer who is also an animal lover! I will be working a part time job this summer and would have plenty of time with your pet! I will make sure your furry friend is never lonely and is well taken care of! I love going on walks and will make sure to take them on many! I will also make sure to follow all instructions given precisely.
“I highly recommend Karmen! She is very nice and knowledgeable. We have 2 hard headed German shorthair pointers and one was stuck on a bird during her visit and she was able to get her back inside! Everything else went very smoothly. 10/10 experience!”
“Danielle was amazing with our two dogs and cat. She went above and beyond what she had to do and constantly made me feel like my pets were good hands! Will definitely reach out to her again on our next trip :)”
“I can tell Joshua is really good with dogs and he knows what he is doing. Ghost seems to really like him which is not normal for him at all. So I was very happy about that. I would recommend Joshua 100% especially if you have big dogs.”
“Makinsey did great watching my pup after her spay surgery! I was a bit nervous leaving her with someone during her recovery, but Makinsey was so good with her and even got her to take her medicine (which she is really stubborn about).”
“Jesse was great with our cat Orca while we were away! He helped keep him company and well taken care of. Our kitty had come down with an illness and needed daily medication - Jesse administered it every day, and gave us updates. We would love to have him watch our cat again, very trustworthy and responsive!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a child. I love dogs and cats alike. I don’t prefer one to the other and have two cats and a dog of my own. I’m just patient with animals and experienced in following the directions of parents. I like your animals to feel their routine is the same as when their owner is home. I am currently working part time from home, so I have a lot of flexibility with my days to come and take care of animals. We have had dogs stay in our home with us. Our animals are extremely accepting of other dogs and we love to host them. I also have no problem providing care in the owners home. I’m here to meet your preference.
About: I have had my own dogs for over 14 years. I have also taken care of several friend's dogs. I genuinely love on other's dogs as if they were my own. I am currently working part time, so I have time on my hands to help out. My days are wide open for walks and check ins. I follow any guidelines expected of dog parents to best care for your fur babies. This includes snuggle time, play time, and any other needs.
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and other exotic pets. I enjoy spending time and caring for animals, I try to keep them entertained or just relaxed. I often volunteer at IndyHumane with their dog day out program. I don’t have weekend availability due to my part time job. So throughout the week I have lots of time. I am available Monday afternoons through Thursdays. When caring for pets in a client’s home, the priority shifts to maintaining their established environment to reduce stress. This includes following precise instructions for feeding, administering medication, and adhering to their regular walking schedules, while providing plenty of companionship and updates to the owner.

Carmel pet parents share their Rover experiences
I had a great experience with Nakia taking care of my cat. She provided regular updates and sent pictures throughout the week, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Nakia made me feel completely comfortable leaving my cat in her care. I would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to other pet parents!
Scott took great care of my very anxious golden retriever! Scott was reliable and kept Meeko on his schedule. He text me about his visits and sent me pictures. He not only let him out, he played with him in the backyard and took him for a walk. He even got Meeko to eat his food, which never happens when I am away! I highly recommend Scott and will definitely be using him again!
Josie did a fantastic job watching our cat for a week! He unexpectedly had an ear infection right before we were gone and helped administer his ear medicine. We also got some furniture delivered in the rain and she was nice enough to bring it inside. 100% recommend!
Asked Hope to do a drop in visit with our dog while we were gone for an afternoon/ evening. She confirmed visit then asked follow up questions to ensure she knew exactly what we wanted her to do, communicated with us during the visit, and sent pics afterwards. She is very professional and caring. We hope to have her help with our dog again soon!
