“Brooklynn was great! She took care of my Holly girl, gave her lovings, fed her and gave her water, gave her treats, and took her out to potty. Also sent pictures of my girl while I was gone. Everything that I asked for. I’m impressed and will use her the next time.”
“Everything went very well! I think the 2 dogs and cat missed her visit the few days after we returned. 🤣😂 Grace will be caring the our pets again in the near future and I have no reservations and I know all 3 of our pets will enjoy her living care!”
About: Hi! I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. My mom told me I wanted a cat the second I knew what a cat was (around 4y/o). I have experience caring for dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, fish, even a ferret. Also I plan on either getting a turtle or a bearded dragon pretty soon so we can add reptiles to that list. Anyways, in conclusion, I love animals more than life itself and I’d be more than happy to take care of your babies in the comfort of their own home! I work the usual five days a week and I am off Sundays and Thursdays. My shifts vary but typically start from 3pm-6pm. I don’t work a full eight hours most days so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own! Every animal is their own individual so I’ll respect whatever boundaries they have but make sure they get the care they deserve. If they’re the type who wants to be left alone, fine by me. If they’re active or extra affectionate, I’ll give them all the attentions and loving I can. I adapt very easily so I’ll fit into whatever lifestyle your pet has!
“This was our third time using Bailey for our very skittish rescue cat when we have to be gone more than overnight. She has always been punctual, polite, and communicative which I appreciate. He hides when she (or anyone) comes over, but Bailey always takes the time to physically find him at every visit to make sure he's okay. This time was no different. Gulliver was well cared for and we came home to an organized water and food station and clean litter box area.”
About: Growing up me and my family have always had multiple dogs, cats, horses, ferrets, and even hamsters, I was always begging for another animal. My parents had told me if I get this animal I have to take good care of it, so from a young age I have had experience taking care of multiple animals at once, making sure they were fed, walked and properly played with and taken care of! In highschool and college I have had friends and family ask me to take care of their pet while they’re away on a trip so I already have experience either taking an animal in for a day or two or showing up to their house to feed, water, walk and play with the animal. I work around 27-30 hours a week. So during the week most days I am free until 11-noon and then on my break at work I would be able to stop by and finally when I get off work around 7-8 I am free for the rest of the night. I rarely work work Thursday, Saturday or Sunday so those days I will be completely free! I do not have any pets at the moment. My lease does not allow me to have pets. Whenever I was living back home I always made sure I fed my cats and dogs on time and always made sure I had time to play with them so I can make them as happy as they make me!
About: I have watched all kinds of breeds of dogs for about five years now her friends and family when they go out of town or on vacation. I currently work 8 to 5 every day during the week except for Thursdays I work 8 to 12 I am available on nights and weekends. I have a fenced in yard, but I prefer to watch dogs at their owners houses rather than mine because it is easier on the animals.
About: I have helped with dog-walking and dog-sitting for my neighbors and friends and would love the opportunity to care for your animal as well :) I’m working a full-time job as a barista as I complete my bachelor’s degree, but find that I have a surprising amount of time on my hands. There is little I enjoy as much in this world as spending my time with animals of all kinds, and I have a lot of energy and enthusiasm to share with your pet! I can provide care for your animal in your home! I would also be more than willing to transport them as needed (to the park; to an appointment; etc). Ultimately, I am super flexible to your specific needs and am willing to accommodate to the best of my ability.
About: I was raised with animals my whole life. I communicate often and send photos, and real time media as often as a client would like, I am trustworthy, and reliable, I am comfortable administering some medications if needed, I am comfortable being a pet taxi to appointments and parks. I love pampering animals. I am a massage therapist and the animals I have cared for...love massages! I am actively seeking Animal CPR classes. I am a advocate for all animals. I have volunteered with different programs helping animals to get medicine, toys, food, and shelter. I work part time as a massage therapist daily. If im not at work then I am around my cat playing or my family/friends pets playing, getting animal cuddles, and resting. But mostly playing! When my dog was still here on earth we went out minimum 5 walks/daily. She was full of energy and the most loving and loyal.. We walked miles when it was cooler out...on hot days we limited walks to protect her from heat illnesses. When it was cold we shortened the walks and she went to daycare or we played inside. She was always with a harness. My other home is fenced in. However, I ALWAYS have eyes on my animals or im out there with them. I have in home and outdoor cameras. My cat is allowed to sit on private porch and birdwatch or hunt...she has access in and out.. as long as im next to her. I only allow this at home. Not with clients. I follow directions from clients..Cat has a leash as well. Ive raised my cat since she was born. She is high energy as well.
“Love working with Tyler. Will continue to use her. She came early to meet our fur babies, then checked in to ensure she had all the instructions correct prior to the start of the sitting job. She is very friendly and my fur babies seemed to Ike her right away. She is the best!”
“Taylor was amazing and took care of our Nnedi while we were out with drop in visits, sending us great updates and pictures. Will definitely go with Taylor again in the future!”
“We are repeat customers of Cassie's and we continue to be quite happy with her service. Visits are on time and I know our pup is in good hands when we need the help. I highly recommend Cassie and will continue requesting her services any time we need them.”
“Great with out furballs as always! I’ve lost track how many times we’ve used her, but we can tell neither dog nor cat felt “abandoned” while we were gone because of her visits and attention”
“We just got home now and saw some goodies Brandy left for Pepper and I. We appreciate how much she takes care of Pepper and enjoys being with him even if it’s just for check-ins! Would recommend her and trust her to be in our home and be with our baby.”
About: I've loved animals all of my life and wish I could rescue every animal in need. Currently my little 9 y/o Yorkie, Ellie May is my whole world, not sure how I'd survive without her so I deeply understand the concern of leaving your babies in someone else's care! My daily schedule is very open and flexible & rates are negotiable. I'm willing to coordinate with you on your needs whether it be for weekdays, weekends and/or holidays. I will always be in tune with your pet's needs and wants and give lots of love and attention so your dog/s will always be safe & happy!
About: Hi, I’m Jordan. I’m a true animal lover at heart and I’ve owned pets my entire life! In the past 5 years I’ve started caring for other animals in addition to my own. I have cared for all different breeds and sizes. It’s important to me that your fur babies feel safe, loved, and part of our family while in our care. At our house we allow your friends on our furniture and we allow them to sleep with us in our bed. We always include all furry friends in our plans- if we are taking our dogs on a walk, we will ask permission to also bring your pet. If we are taking our dogs on a drive, we will ask for permission for your pet to come with us. If our dogs are getting treats, we will ask permission to also give your friend treats. Etc. We will always do our best to accommodate any of your pets needs. We love walkies, giving treats, cuddles, pup cups, and head pats! We own a home in Newburgh that has a fenced in back yard that we use for lots of supervised playtime! I live with my husband Collin and our two Mini Australian Shepherd’s Atlas and Charli. We truly enjoy the time we are given with your animals! The animals we care for will receive our attention and our love while with us. I have tons of time for your animals! I am a kindergarten teacher’s assistant who has many days off throughout the year including: summer break, spring break, fall break, Christmas break, weekends, and many days off during the year! I also have an extremely flexible schedule for potty breaks, eating schedules, walk times, or possible medical needs. A normal work day in my life would be from 7am-4pm. I am a truly detail oriented person which comes in handy while caring for the safety and happiness of your pet(s) which is always my number one priority! I have a fenced in yard and I have two extremely friendly pups to keep your furry friends company. We allow our animals on all furniture including the bed, which will be no different for your animals. We want your animals to feel as at home as possible. We keep our home environment very clean as well as making sure it is safe. I value communication! I love taking pictures to help pet parents feel more at ease. We can accommodate your animals by sticking to a routine schedule.
About: We have had dogs for over 30 years. So we thought why not help out the others!! We love to have the extra feet around. I work from home so I do not venture too far for too long. So lots of attention while mom and dad are gone on a break. I have a fenced in yard with lots of room to play. I can crate or cuddle depending on the dogs needs. Will be happy to give meds if needed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Evansville
Evelyn/Evi was great with Chayce, she checked in on her several times. She fed, walked and even brushed her. Our dog is scared of fireworks & when Evi checked on her in the evening when fireworks were being fired off she sat with her & gave her comfort. This is the first time we’ve let someone Chayce didn’t know take care of her & she really took a liking to Evi quickly. We received pictures & videos which were nice, we had no worries with Evi. I would highly recommend her for pet care. We will definitely use her again when we need a dog sitter.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Evansville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Evansville 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Evansville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
