“Wendy was absolutely amazing with my two dogs! From the moment we met, I could tell she truly cared about their comfort and happiness. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Both of my pups seemed so relaxed and happy when I got home—it was clear they were well cared for and given lots of love and attention. I’m so grateful to have found someone so reliable, kind, and attentive. I’ll definitely be booking with Wendy again!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have unique experience raising wolves and foxes through internships and jobs. I also worked at a vet clinic and plan to become a vet tech now that I have graduated—I'm excited to start at a new clinic soon! My background helps me handle pets of all ages and temperaments with confidence and care. I’m currently a camp counselor at Hoosier Heights Climbing Gym from 9–4 on most weekdays, but I’m available in the afternoons, evenings, and for overnight pet sitting. Depending on your location, I may also be able to stop by for a quick lunch visit if needed. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to work around your pet’s routine! I tailor my care to match your pet’s routine and needs. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, playtime in the yard to burn off zoomies, or sticking to a specific feeding or medication schedule, I’m happy to follow whatever regimen keeps your pet happy and healthy. Your pet’s comfort and routine always come first!

“Sam was exceptional in caring for my little pup. She was always sending updates along with pictures and was very efficient in her care, especially for it being the first time at my home on top of it being an extended stay. I would recommend her to anyone and will certainly be requesting her care again my little guy!”


“She took great care of my two little dogs, they’re usually very shy but seemed to warm up to her quickly.”


“Leah was great with my babies. We have 1 dog that is blind and diabetic. The other 2 can be a handful. She was able to handle giving shots. My babies were sad she didn’t come back. We will definitely be using Leah again”


“Treasure took great care of our dogs and our house. We will definitely be reaching out to her again.”



“Aubrey is wonderful with Zero my 92 lb German Shepherd! She always arrives on time and did 2 meet and greets before to get to know him. She handles larger dogs with ease and is always aware of surroundings while walking him. Zero does not like many people. Zero warmed up to her in about 10 mins the first time, 2 mins the 2nd time and he was immediately her friend the next. This is unheard of with Zero. I am so thankful she was not intimidated and I could clearly tell the 1st time meeting her she loves dogs. She had the pack leader mentality which u need with Zero and won him over quickly. I will continue to use Aubrey she is trustworthy and dependable. She stayed at the house and treats my house as if her own. Having her watch Zero allows me to be gone without worry. I am so thankful I connected with her on Rover. She takes care of my dog just like her own. She is a top notch dog sitter!!”

About: Hey there! Im a recently divorced work from home mama who LOVES all animals🥰 and yes I mean all! Will take care of whatever pet you need care for🫶 When my kids are at their dads or in school it can get VERY lonely so when I heard I could get paid to love on and care for other people's fur babies i was like where do I sign up! Haha this is the perfect job for me! I'm pretty sure I need this more than you do 🤣 I'm a sweetheart, VERY patient and kind and will work with you and your pet to make sure his/her needs are met! I have had 5 dogs growing up (great Pyrenees, rat terrier, German shepherd, black lab and a collie) and in my 20s I had a husky, chi and a golden retriever. Im very active and love playing with dogs and their toys! So make sure you bring your pups favorites😊 When it's warm I LOVE going for a run, if it's cold I'll still go on walks just not too far (staying in the neighborhood) I have a decent sized front and back yard if he/she doesn't like to go for walks and would rather just do their business and come back inside lol I also am willing to use puppy pads if your fur baby is used to those! I am a gentle, God fearing women. I'm a judgement free zone and don't throw stones in my glass house! I listen to ALL types of music, watch all kinds of movies and can get along with just about anyone. I can't wait to start caring for your fur babies! Hope to hear from you soon🥰 I work from home, i make my own schedule and have found I have a lot more time on my hands than I thought I would! Have an amazing day and I hope to be able to care of your fur baby soon ! 🥰 🫶 🩷 🐕 🐈⬛ 🐕🦺 🐈

“Cassandra was great. She watched my cat Jasper for a few days, brushed him, sent pics and was extremely polite. This is my first time using the app so I was nervous about how Jasper's care would go. I've never left him with someone else in the 6 years I've had him but my life has taken a turn and I am now at a new job that requires me to travel. She made me feel reassured he would be ok, and he was! It's nice to know I now have someone I can rely on when important matters come up and I need someone to watch him.”
