About: Since I could remember I have taken care of animals for my family and friends and I could not ask for a better job. I have experience working at a dog daycare and caring for pups there as well as some training experience with young puppies. Currently working as a pharmacy tech while looking for a full-time accounting job. I would love to take care of your pups in my spare time. Right now my schedule is flexible and depends on my pharmacy schedule. Hoping to have a more set schedule soon! I have such a love for caring for any kind of animal and will try my best to help care for yours! I have a mini dachshund of my own named Finnick who is just the best. I got him as a graduation gift and raised him since I was able to, he is my pride and joy!
“Kenzie was great! She was great at communicating with me before I chose to book her. I wanted to feel comfortable with her coming to my home and messaged back and forth multiple times. She left a good note and photos of my dog!”
“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: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since the age of 14. Neighbors, friends and family have all trusted me to care for their pets! I treat all pets like they are my own and give them the care they deserve! I’m currently working part time and doing an internship 3 days a week so I will have plenty of time for your pups! I am available for drop in visits Wednesdays, Fridays and all weekend! I care for my clients’ pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar home environment. I carefully follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication needs, and any specific preferences or behaviors. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routine to reduce stress and help them feel secure while their owners are away. During each visit, I spend quality time with the pet—whether that’s going for walks, playing, or simply providing companionship. I also monitor their behavior and well-being closely and will communicate any concerns right away. I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so owners can feel reassured that their pet is happy and well cared for. In addition to pet care, I respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as they left it. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.
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 spent a year working at a pet boarding facility called “The Farm At Natchez Trace” in Fairview Tn. I moved out to Evansville for college and I started working at the Vanderburgh Humane Society. I am currently unemployed so I can focus more on college which leaves my schedule open! I also have experience with dog training! I’m currently unemployed and in online college so my schedule is very flexible! I am looking to pet sit/ dog walk/ take care of cats as much as possible! Currently I’m only able to pet sit in a clients home but I am willing to learn how to take care of pets exactly how their owners want and I’m very respectful of other people’s belongings!
“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!”
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.
“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.”
“Jamie was very attentive and flexible to our needs. We reached out to her last minute to care for our pets due to a flight cancellation. She responded almost immediately and gave us such a peace of mind while we were traveling that our fur babies were taken care of. Would recommend!”
“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: 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.

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. 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 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.

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.
