About: I’ve been walking dogs for as long as I can remember.

“OMG Meaghan is amazing!!! I hate being apart from my fur baby, but had to return home to Tennessee for a family emergency. Jordi’s original sitter was unable to drop in, so I searched through the Rover. First time using the app and I love it. I was able to find and meet Meaghan in a super short timeframe. She was so extremely accommodating and kind. She would send pics of Jordi with funny little quips of all the things he did during her visits. It really warmed my heart and helped me get through this trying week. Definitely going to book with Meaghan again!!! Thanks so much for caring for my fur baby!!!❤️❤️❤️”
About: Hi!! I’m a BIG animal lover and would love to care for your pets like they’re my own! I have experience with both house sitting and pet sitting, and I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, and just about any animal you have. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I also love keeping things clean and organized, so I’m always happy to tidy up your space too! I have a very friendly dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I’m currently in school, but I’m very flexible and will always do my best to work around your needs and I’ll have even more availability during the summer! Can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I’m currently in school, but only going part time with three classes. I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! 🐾 I treat every pet like they’re my own! I keep a calm, clean, and safe space, and I make sure to follow their normal routines so they feel at home. They’ll get lots of love, attention, playtime, and care. I also pay close attention to their behavior and needs to make sure they’re always comfortable and happy.
About: Animals lover here. Each animal has their own personality and I adapt to them all exactly what they want and need. If they want cuddles, they get cuddles. If they want space, they get space. I run every morning so having a dog or even cat to run with is even better! Also am an energetic and experienced pet care provider. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, and ferrets before. I am really flexible with my schedule. I am home full-time. I can take your animals anywhere you want. I will love all of your pets and I can guarantee you they will love me. I also have platforms on windows so cats can watch the world go by. Your pets will get all the attention they want. I am currently working remotely so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your furbabies! I like to get up before the sun rises and go for a run, I would absolutely love to be accompanied :) I do not have a fenced backyard. Though the creek is fully around my back yard, my dogs know not to go across the creek. Maybe, my two friendly dogs will help with accompanying yours.
About: I own four rescue dogs, three of which are small and one of which is medium. I am currently fostering a cat and an elderly dog. All of my animals will be in their crates if you book me for boarding. I’m currently free 24/7 so I’ll have plenty of time to entertain your pets. Although come August I will be back in collage and I’ll only be able to mornings and nights. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of space to play and currently five small/medium sized dogs that are very friendly for your pet to play with.
About: My wife and I have been taking care of animals (dogs, cats, birds, lizards, guinea pigs and bunnies) since we were very young. As we get closer to retirement, we would like to spend more time doing what we love and that's caring for animals. We have well over 40 years of experience caring for animals and feel like I should have been a veterinarian. My son started a pet sitting business when he was in 7th grade and has built a strong base over the last 6 years. I thought it might be great to build it with him and sign up for Rover to assist additional people in our community. Your pet will receive all day attention as I am working from home and am here to take routine breaks for potty, walks, attention and play time. While our yard is not fenced, it is large and wooded and I spend a lot of time outside with our dog and the dogs in our care. We do go for long walks at Potters Bridge nearby along the river and in the woods and I take lots of time every day to give our guests the attention they need. Need products for your pet? Go to OptimalPetProductsDOTcom and check it out With my wife working at home & me being home by noon most days, we are able to be home w/ dogs all day so they do not have to be crated, kenneled and receive a lot of attention throughout the day. We do not have a fenced yard but do have a substantial dog run that we hook up to allow dogs to have a lot of exercise. Most of their exercise would be one on one with walks and play. We do have crates, but we typically do NOT crate our guests unless we are told to do so by an owner. Some owners prefer dogs crated at night, but we do not do that unless that is part of the owner's instructions. We do read the instructions for daily care closely on the Rover app to ensure that your dogs are up at the right time, fed correctly and receive medications or supplements as required. We take your instructions to heart and very seriously as this is your family member who you care for on a regular basis and we don't want to upset their schedule when they return home with you after their busy and playful stay here.
About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’ve worked at two doggy daycares and a humane society, where I gained experience caring for and handling a wide variety of dogs. I’ve also shadowed at veterinary clinics and have had dogs my entire life. I’m comfortable caring for dogs from puppies to seniors and understand that every dog has different needs, energy levels, and personalities. I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and attentive care to every dog I work with! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine! I have always had animals and currently care for multiple pets, so I’m very comfortable building feeding, cleaning, exercise, playtime, and attention into my schedule. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive consistent care, attention, and plenty of love every day. I’m also happy to dedicate additional time to pet sitting, dog walking, and daycare depending on my schedule. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I’m respectful of their home and make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and never left without proper care. I understand that every pet is different, so I adjust my approach based on their age, personality, energy level, and individual needs.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and know how to love and care for each of your pets while you are away. While I do not have any professional dog experience, I’ve had dog in my family since the day I was born and had owned my own dog for about 10 years until she recently passed away. Dogs my family has had were a mutt, three Labradors, Golden Retriever, and a Belgian Malinois. The pet I recently had was a mix of a Labrador and German Short-haired Pointer. I had been to training classes recently for about 3 years as well. I have pet sit cats and lived with cats in the past so I would know how to care for a feline. I will make sure to be very professional, care, and love your pet as if they were my own. Looking for services inside or outside of my home. I currently work full time in Carmel Monday-Friday 8am to 4:30pm and typically have nights and weekends free. I am looking to become more active (I had a senior dog with no ability to walk) so physical activity is welcomed! I have a fenced in yard and walking trails throughout my community. No additional pets. I can easily crate your pet with a collapsible travel crate.
About: Hi, I’m Mea! Dogs have always been my favorite kind of company, and I know how important it is to leave your pup with someone you genuinely trust. I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your dog is energetic and adventure loving or more of a couch and cuddle type, I adjust my care to fit their personality and routine. From walks and playtime to overnight stays and lots of attention, my goal is to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I’m happy to accommodate specific routines or needs. I’ll also make sure you get updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work a steady 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM job, which allows me plenty of time for dog sitting before and after work. In the mornings, I can provide walks, playtime, and ensure your dog is fed and comfortable before I leave. After work, I have the flexibility to take them on a walk, give them attention, and stick to their evening routine, whether that includes dinner, playtime, or just some extra affection. For overnight stays, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe and secure in my care, keeping up with their schedule and providing plenty of attention before and after my workday. On weekends, I have even more availability for longer walks, play sessions, and extra time to ensure they’re happy and comfortable. No matter the schedule, I’ll always make sure your dog gets the love, care, and routine they need! I would care for your dog with the same level of attention and love, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and safe while you’re away. Whether it’s following their routine, keeping up with their energy levels, or just giving them the affection they’re used to, I’ll treat them like one of my own!
About: I love spending time with animals! I grew up with dogs and have two cats of my own. I work remote full time so I can get away whenever. Wanting to start doing this as a hobby more than anything else! I work full time remotely so I can get away pretty easily during the weekdays (especially in Carmel) I can always work around weekend availability as well! I have drop in visits for cats and dogs before for friends and family. I can accommodate whatever is needed for safety and comfort in your home!
“Danielle is amazing, she sends tons of pictures of your pets which I love. You can tell she really loves animals so I felt very comfortable trusting her with my dog and cat! 😊”
“Sammy took good care of my 2 dogs for 3 days and did a great job with drop in visits. She came on time, fed my dogs, gave my one dog her meds, let them outside to do their business, and stayed a little longer for some one-on-one play time. She kept me updated on my pups and sent me pictures. She also took my mail in for me. I highly recommend Sammy.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I regularly dog-sit for my neighbors, and I also have two 95-lb Golden Retrievers, a Dachshund, and two cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with both large and small pets. I love spending time playing with dogs, keeping them company, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, playtime, and any special instructions. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I’m a first-year business student at IU Indianapolis studying marketing. My class schedule gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care!

“Zoe did a great job with drop in visits/walking Maple and Millie! Excellent communication, on time and the pups loved her! Highly recommend! We will definitely be using her in the near future!! Thank you!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I’ve dog sat for friends and family, but want to expand. I’m a college student at Butler, and love animals! I’m currently working part time and would love to help out with your fur babies! I can help out morning and night along with some help during the day! I can take your pets on walks along with some cuddles! I can also stop in during the day to allow them to use the restroom and get some grub!
About: I’ve loved Dogs and Cats for as long as I can remember. I’ve had cats since I was 5 years old, and they’ve always been an important part of my life. I had my 1st dog in middle school so ,I grew up playing with them, sleeping next to them, and caring for them every day. Being around cats and dogs brings me so much joy, and I understand how to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I will care for your cat or dog as if they were my own. Cats are part of my daily life. I don’t have dogs but I love it and also was my daily life when I live with my parents. On Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I’m home most of the time, so I can give them plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. During the week, I’m available from 5 PM until the next morning, and I love spending my evenings relaxing with cats by my side. In my routine, cats are never alone—they are always with me, receiving love and care. Having a dog should not be a probleem :) When caring for cats and dogs in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their feeding schedule, keep their litter box clean, afternoon walks,play with them, give them plenty of attention and affection, and respect their personality and routine. I enjoy spending quality time with cats, whether they want to play, cuddle, or simply relax nearby.Trust me i will not fail:)

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cicero choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
